Cat's-Eye Has Many
Points of Beauty

The dictionary describes the cats
eye as "gem exhibiting opalescent
reflections from within, like the eyes
Of a cat. Specifically a variety Of
chrysoberyl or a variety Of quartz or
chalcedony, inferior to this in bril-
liancy. It is cut en- cabochon."
The distinguishing feature of the
cat's-eye stone is the peculiar milky
white, blush or greenish-white sheen
which crosses and recrosses 1t with
every play of the light as the gem u
turned about. The explanation Of this
popularity Is that the stone contains,
packed In It's depths, many closely
matted fbers Of another strange min
eral, familiar to us as asbestos. The
thing that makes asbestos remarkable
in the mineral world Ia that though It
Is rock, it does not crumble when
crushed, but comes TO pieces in tho
form Of fbers. 1t is the streak Of
these fbers In the cat's-eye which
causes it to reflect the light in Its very
lovely way, with every movement Of
the finger wearing it.
OF course, the beauty Of the stone
can also be greatly enhanced by the
skill Of the cutter To say that the
stone Is cut zen cabochon" means that
in this style Of cutting the upper part
of the stone Is shaped like low
dome, and it brings out all the natural
luster and color of opaque and trans
lucent stones. Therefore, such stones
as the garnet, turquoise, cat's-eye,
etc, are usually cut in this way. The
best cat's-eye comes from India and
Ceylon.

Locates the Pain

Vagrant aches and pains which often
afflict the stomach and are hard to
identify may now be accurately To-
Gated and classified by an instrument
resembling a miniature seismograph,
the device with which earthquake
tremors are recorded, according to
Popular Mechanics Magazine. The
pain finder, devised by DR.. w. G. Al
verez Of the University Of California,
Is said to register the course Of such
Ills in almost any part Of the abdomen
and to clearly reveal every step of the
digestive processes. BY the recorder.
the passage Of food through the d.
gestive tract can be closely followed,
and the exact spot and instant Of tho
setting up of any trouble definitely
learned in few minutes. The instru-
ment, called the multiple electro-enter-
ograph, Is said to obtain its data BY
means of a pendulum swung In q
vacuum tube and marks Its records
with a needle.

Belief in Horseshoes
Traced to the Druids

The idea that 1t is lucky TO ind
horseshoe is regarded by authorities on
folklore as Druidical survival.
The superstition is peculiar to re-
gions where Druidism once fourished.
and the Druidlcal places Of worship, as
exemplifled by Stonehenge, made their
inner circle of stones a broken or open
one.
The idea that a horseshoe brings the
best luck when you find 1t lying with
the points toward you-the sacred In
ner circle open to you. as 1t were
also bears upon this theory.
Druidism passed, but the superstl-
ton outlasts empires and religions, and
when horseshoes became common the
supersitious found ready at hand
representation Of the ancient symbol OF
the broken circle. The idea that In
attaching the symbol to the house the
points should be up had a Druidical
Identification which has been lost. Peo-
pie nowadays say 1t Is ITO prevent the
luck running out"

Harp Loses Eminence

Tara's famous harp Is disappearing
and fast becoming but memory. At
the recent Teis Cecil at Dublin, the
festival to which Leland's budding mu-
sicians come annually to submit them
selves to tests set by eminent adjudi-
cators-there was only one sntrant for
the harp competition and only one.
also, In the competition for song
with harp accompaniment. 1t is ex-
planned that the harp Is at a disad-
vantage as compared with the violin
and other instruments Of smaller bulk,
since it Is not eaHly portable for prf
vate entertainments, and being essen
TALLY an instrument Of the individual.
1t can never hope to md a place as an
item of household equipment as does
the plano. But whatever the reason,
the fact remains that the harp Is be-
coming almost as extinct In Ireland al
are the snakes banished BY st. Patrick.

Groundless Fear

Some persons dread to take an anes-
thetic because they fear they Will talk
in their sleep. This Is largely a myth.
says DR.. Floyd Troutman Romberger,
an anesthetist. who Is contributor to
Hygeia, health magazine published BY
the American Medical association.
Under modern methods of Inducing
anesthetic sleep, consciousness Is lost
30 rapidly that the patient does not
have time to say anything. When he
is coming to, he usually Is so drowsy
that he does not care to talk.

Plans for the development, which,
up to this time, have been the sub
ject of many rumors were brought
to a head with the arrival on Fri
day of a group of men from New
York and Chicago to inspect the
Phillips lake section. Saturday
evening, at dinner at the Penobscot
Valley Country club, an outline Of
the project now in progress was re-
vealed.
The Phillips lake development in
cludes plans for hotel, large
casino, a country club, a group of
cottages, a golf course and other de-
tails provided to make an American
resort like that of Lake Placid in New
York state, or some of the famous
Swiss watering places.
The Lake House will be enlarged
to a structure 1925 feet in length.
1t will be moved farther from the
roadway, to point in the rear of
the spot now occupied by the barn,
which will be removed. The Lake
House will become very handsome
club house, and in it's new location
will command magnificent view of
mountains and lake. The end of the
dining room facing the lake will be
all glass, and there will be lounging
rooms, billiard room, card rooms,
half dozen bed rooms, rooms for
women, broad verandas, etc., all
worked out with skill and artistic
taste to produce an attractive struc-
ture and comfortable, spacious
and honey interior.
A feature new in this section will
be the appearance shortly of an air.

New Workers. Act of
Courtesy Was Wasted

He is New Yorker distinguished
for his unfailipg courtesy. 1t has be-
come second nature to him to do the
right and kind thing. Strangely
enough, he Is also given to moments
of absorption In which externals reg
lister only automatically upon his con-
sciousness. Frequently, In his home
ward walks, he becomes 50 occupied
with his own thoughts that he Is In
world quite apart from that which Is
worrying past him. However, the in
stinct Of courtesy remains. no matter
how preoccupied he may be.
He was strolling homeward an eve
ming or two ago, lost In reverie. Tho
people who went by were merely gray
shapes, a futter on the screen he dim
ly saw out Of the tail Of his eye.
One shape came toward him. a
vague thing, one Of many. As 1t
reached a point abreast Of him he saw
something white flutter from 1t to the
sidewalk. To his engrossed mind that
meant only one thing, that someone
dropped something, and the someone
woman, as they are the ones who most
often drop things Courtesy demanded
that he stoop and pick 1t up and re-
turn It.
For Just one instant he emerged
from his preoccupation, stopped and
picked up the white thing he had seen
flutter down. He proffered 1t to the
young woman, and then, all Of a sud
den, realized he was handing her q
woolly white dog!
Thanks ever 50 much" she said.
''but I intended to let him down for
little run"
And Mr.. Courtesy raised his hat, and
passed on and back into his reverle.-
