UP-TO.DATE PHENOMENA
ASK THE CALF

Fashions in phenomena change
with the years. Once there was
the story of the sea-serpent, but
where is the modern imagination
that would consent to trifle with
sea serpents? Especially as these
days the pathway of imagination is
beset with lures and haunted by the
certainty that fact is stranger than
fiction.
No, the sea serpent is thrill that
is past. A few days ago blackbirds
rained down on a New Jersey farm
like mama to the Israelites; some
thing novel about that, a real titilla-
ton Of up-to-date curiosity.
The cause? No one has deter
mined. Some conclude the birds,
like aviators on occasion. came into
air pocket. though why this should
kill them is not explained. Others
think they were caught in a mid
air whirlwind and so met death.
Next.

AN INDEPENDENT iNDEPEND.
EMIT

Ii seems incredible that Colonel
George Harvey during his recent re-
tirement has acquired n distaste for
publicity. II so 1t is cause for appre-
hension. Here are the symptoms as
charted by New York reporter who
''waylaid" --presumably not by APP
pointment-the doughty Colonel and
ex-Ambassador on his return from
the South:
"What am going to do?" said
Colonel Harvey, carefully adjusting
the black square crowned hat which
makes him look like an English
vicar, I'm going home to Deal. n.
j., TO think hard about how I'm go
ing to spend the rest of my life"
"But in politics."
Il am going to support Coolidge,
Hrst and last
Don't you think a third party
will"
1.-THE nomination and election of
Coolidge are newt"
But the Democratic"
1.-THE nomination and election OF
Coolidge are inevitable"
Such faith may not move noun
tains, but it does stop reporters. But
what was Colonel Harvey's political
faith?
I'm an independent independent.
he replied without the glimmer Of q
smile.
He said he expected to devote .
Eoodly portion OF his time to the
North American Review.
So there's that! An Independent
Yndependent,,"

A Word from Or. Tranroek

Our old friend, DIR. Walter r.
Traprock, is just back from trip
through the Desert of Sahara.
In a recent conversation the
famous explorer said: THE most
interesting discovery l made on the
entire trip was that of a new
should say--of a very old tribe OF
Nomads living south Of the Alag
gar Plateau.
These people whom I have called
the Bishtilli, or sand-blowers, live
entirely on sand. 1t is the only
article of their diet. They require
no water whatsoever. Countless
years in the desert have brought
this strange thing about. This diet
has naturally affected their appear
ance.
Hair, complexion, eyes, even teeth
are sandy, SO that at a distance OIL
a few feet a Bshtilli is invisible
against the desert background. The
sand blowing habit is unique. I'm
like the Carolina clay-eater, the
Bishtill does not digest the sand
but retains It only after the
nutritive elements have been alb
sorbed, after which the sand Is
blown out in a perfect ring.
Their mouths are very large and
elastic, and are perfectly adapted to
blowing these rings for an immense
distance and with great accuracy.
"Withal they are a friendly people
and have very dry sense Of
humor"
We would hazard the opinion that
the Doc has also.
