The dark Huid In the sponge ON
Mount Calvary intended for the lips Of
Jesus of Nazareth when he was suf-
fering on the cross was not vinegar,
but morton wine believes the English
biologist, O. A. Newell. This so-caIled
wine was a powerful, sleep-producIng
drug in ancient times often given con-
demned men when they were being ex-
ecuted. During the Roman occupation
Of Palestine the method of capital
punishment was crucifixion, a long
process that caused the victim great
agony. The Jewish women, under the
sanction of the grand sanhedrin. would
administer the death wine to the VIC
Tins on sponge, whereby they were
put to sleep and their sufferings
abated. This wine. says Doctor
Newell, was distilled from the root of
the mandragora plant. He finds refer

Not Unworthy Foes

Mountain lions, bobcats, grizzlies,
wolves, coyotes and other killers
slaughtered between twenty and thir-
ty million dollars worth of live stock
last year on the western ranges. That
is why the government maintains q
band of men, pioneers at heart, who
concentrate every effort, night and
day, on their determination. These
men belong to the predatory animal
division Of the biological survey, and
the stories they tell in monosyllables
sound like old medieval tales of were
wolves and ghost-tigers. DO animals
think? Listen to their experiences
with some of these four-legged des-
peradoes.
Stanley p. Young is the boss trailer
of the hunters on ColoradO's stock
ranges, with the professional title Of
junior biologist.
You asked If animals think" said
Young In an interview. Let me tell
you how we have to go out after
wolves.

a circle often about fifty miles iii
circumference. He makes the rounds
regularly. We study killer VOLTS
habits sometimes for months. Then
we make a trap set for him on this
RUIZ at some key point. Can't poison
a wolf, He's too wise.
TN setting traps for wolves we
make two kinds of sets. Wolves have
scent posts just like domestic dogs
We find the ground all scratched up
around these. Sometimes we set traps
at such points. To stir up the local
wolf, get him all excited so he'll lose
his head bit, we often bring in the
scent of some foreign wolf we have
trapped. That makes the local wolf
mad to find an invader in his bailli-
wick. He starts rarin' around and
gets into trap.
Some of them are so cunning they
will not get into a trap at a scent
post They just sense there is some
thing wrong and dodge the trap. Then
we make what is called blind set.
"In making blind set. the hunter
waits until 1t is about time, for the
wolf to come by point on his cir
Gle trail. These men get this figured
out almost to the hour, because they
may have been studying that par
ticular wolf for weeks. Then they
select a place where the trail is mar
row. They dig pit and put the
set trap in 1t. They handle the traps
with gloves and keep all the dirt
they dig on what is called a setting
cloth. Everything in the way Of foot

Baton First Used BY
Conductors in Church

Ludwig Spohr. famous vioIinist,
conductor, and composer, who is
known to the general public chiefly by
his oratorio, "The Last Judgment"
and his song, Rose, Softly Bloom
ing was the first to use a baton for
conducting large orchestra in Eng
land.
But, like Safonoff, who became ia
NOUS ten or fifteen years ago as the
man who conducted without baton,
he was simply reviving In a more con-
venient form an older custom.
The use of the baton is, in fact, a
very ancient one, though the manner
OF its use has varied. 1t probably
arose from the fact that in the larger
: churches, and especially on great oc-
casions, the director Of the choir had
a stan of office something like a
bishops crozier, but with a different
head. This he held in his left hand
while directing the singers with the
right.
Now and then, however. he had to
recover the attention of his singers,
when he would stamp on the floor
with his staff, doing the same thing
also on occasion to keep them to-
gether
In later times, when boys began to
take part in the singing, he used 1t as
a means of chastisement. and grad
uaIly transferred 1t entirely to the
right hand. We may, therefore, say
that both conducting with baton
and conducting without one come
from the same ecclesiastical methods.

CHE WHY of
SUPERSTITIONS
STANDING BY THE TABLE
BY H. IRVING KING

IN RURAL New England people
L seated at a table, eating. object to
having another person pause and stand
beside the board even should he only
pause for a second to say some nee
essary word. AS rule it Is a stran-
ger with whom this action is deemed
especially Objectionable. The writer
discovered this by making the afore-
said "break." On inquiring suisse
uuently as to the wherefore of the
objection, some people said that it "is
very bad manners; others that 1T
brought bad luck" and still others
could only say that it sis one Of the
things that isn't done" The idea
seemed surprisingly widespread among
certain class of people, general
feeling that, for some unknown rea-
son. such an act should be always
avoided.
It was evidently real superstition
which was thus stumbled upon. Its
origin is obvious. 1t is a survival OF
the idea Of primitive man with regard
to shadows, an idea which Is found
today existing In full force among
savage and backward races and can
be traced in many popular super
stitions among civilized peoples. Our
primitive ancestors regarded mans
shadow as a vital part Of himself-a
sort of astral body" an exterior
SOUL" To have persons shadow fall
upon one was sort of projection of
the shadower's personality upon the
Swallowed. This projection was, as a
rule, considered to be malevelent In
its effect. A person pausing by ia
BILE at which people are eating is liable
to cast his shadow over both food and
eaters-which is bad, especially If he
is a stranger, for with the ancients
strangers and enemies were synono-
nous terms. Hence the superstition
mentioned above, one Of those sur.
viyals which have outlasted for long
centuries all knowledge of their origin
and meaning by the people who still
cherish them.
