Rich in Albumen. Lupin

Not only in the Mediterranean re-

Identifying Pictures

French chemists have perfected new
methods OF identifying pictures. ac-
cording to the American Chemical So
ciety. They use groups Of red. blue.
green or white light to light the pic
ture, and they examine the suspected
canvas with the spectrometer. This
puts In relief the retouchings, scrap
lngs and changed signatures which
constitute false picture. By EN-
ploying the ultraviolet ray they make
the zinc white and certain varnlshes
stand out by fiuorescence. BY scrap
ing off small amounts of paint they
have made spectrographlc analysis
and have been able - determine, for
example, in false Renoir, the pres
ence Of cadmium yellow. when
Renolr only used chrome yellow.

Scientific intsrest in

In a letter to the London Times Of

The general result of the excavations
brings into prominence the enormous
extent of the ruins, which, If grouped
continuously. would cover 120 acres,
the very great antiquity of the site,
and the priority of the Sumerians.

Variety of Particles
Gathered BY the Eye

Few people have never experienced
the pain or discomfort that comes OF
getting dust particles or other foreign
bodies In the eyes Few, 1t Is safe to
say. realize the true source of some OF
these Irritating Instructions.
Tell the average person 1t Is pos
sible to collect in the eyes the dust
Of falling star and you will probably
be disbelieved. Yet microscopic ex-
animation has shown this to be fact.
When a meteor reaches our atmos-
phere 1t discharges heavy vapors,
which condense into myriads of MI
mute particles, any one of which nay
lodge in the eye that Is gazing sky
ward.
Volcanic eruption may cause dis
comfort in similar fashion. Lava
flowing from an active crater gives off
clouds of vapor containing microscopic
particles that make their way round
the world in the upper air currents,
ultimately to fall in showers upon the
earth, where wlde-open eyes may
easily collect them.
Again, the great deserts contribute
largely to the number of foreign
bodies gathered in this way. Sand
storms do not cease from troubling I'M
mediately they subslde. Their particles
are borne by the winds the world over,
many of them finding lodgment In our
eyes, as the microscope has repeated
ly proved.
Pollen from the big pine forests of
Canada may affect us in like manner,
while an even more strange, though
not less potent, cause of this special
form of irritation is the scales of but
terflles' wings, shed as rule during
the first flights after emerging from
the pupa.
The sources and variety of things
gathered in the eyes during normal
lifetime are, In fact. amazing and
form an astounding commentary on
the dlslntegrating forces increasingly
at work In the universe.

Oxygen Biowpipe Used

American Girls Easily
Best Dancers in World

''The American girl makes the best
dancer In the world. bar none"
That is the sweeping statement
made by Miss Fawn Gray Of New
York herself dancer. who has just
completed "round-the-world" trip,
during which she studied dancing In
various cities, according to the New
York World
Next to the American girl comes
the English girl for all-around dane
ing" continued Miss Gray. 81 danced
in London. in Paris. at Monte Carlo
and at Deauville, and. strangely
enough. there was more real competi-
tion in London than at any other
place. In Berlin the girls are little
too stiff for graceful dancing.
you'd imagine that the French
girls would be the most graceful and
accomplished In showing Off their
dresses, wouldn't you? Well, while |
was there a competition was held to
decide the best manikln In Paris, and
II was won by an American girl"
Miss Gray visited Honolulu on her
trip, and while there danced Hawaiian
dances in competition with real Ha-
waians.
Il won all three of the contests In
which ! took part" she concluded, $50
that alone would tend to bear out my
contention that the American girl is
the best dancer in the world, now
wouldn't it?"

of times when Philip White, a light
weight amateur, bumped him off
with a terrific punch. Cline's sec

stagger to his feet on the count

sponge but bottle of smelling salt

fist every second of the way.
Manager Lott, who brought over
the Columbus boys, was sadly dis
appointed at the size Of the crowd
and declined to put on his final
bout. Officials of the Legion an
nounced to the crowd present that
orly something like $35 or $40 was
the total receipts, with expenses
equal to that sum, leaving nothing
for the fighters share. The crowd
was offered their money back in
toto but after a conference be-
tween Lott, representing the fight
ers and Robert Lane and Referee
Ewing, for the legion, the crowd
was told that the entire caro- would
be carried out for and additional
contribution of $500. The fans
quickly made up this purse and the
show proceeded as outlined above.
After the bout those prese It
were so enthusiastic over the show
that had been given them that re-
turn date was arranged. Lott
agreed provided he was given a
guarantee of $500. This, it is mr.

turn date is soon to be announced.
The final between Young Cline
