Indian Tribe Has Firm
Belief in Werleopard

The Maya tribe of India are firm
believers In werleopards and wer-
tigers. That is wild animals animated
by a human spirit. According to be-
lief, the man stays in his own home
in state Of lethargy or sleep while
the animal into whom his soul has
entered for the time remains in the
jungle and hunts or Is hunted. In
juries done to the leopard or tiger
appear on the body of the man and
If the animal Is killed, the man dies.
He jumps about in excitement when
his alter ego is being pursued and
causes such disturbances in the home
that his relatives commonly give him
ginger. This increases his strength
and enables the hunted animal to out
distance his pursuers.
When the man becomes his normal
self he remembers his experiences,
and an investigator vouches for
case where a man described the where
abouts Of the remains of kill he
had made, as leopard, which was
duly found there.
Werleopards and wertlgers are not
proud of their attributes but regard
themselves, and are regarded by 9th
ers, as Victims of condition which
Is not their fault.

Locust Spends Years
of Life UNDERGROUND

Do seventeen-year locusts really ap-
pear every seventeen years2 And, If
so, why are some to be found every
Year,
These are pertinent questions, to
say the least. The seVenteen-year To-
Gust has long he2n heard of, and
some skcptical people nre inclined to
brand accounts of them as myths. But
they are real insects, and they do re
qulre (the variety known as cicada
septendecim which Is literally Latin
for Clcuda seventeenth seventeen, or
in some cases, thirteen years for full
development.
The seventeen-year locust Is not a
grasshopper More exactly, It is not
locust but cicada--the name cica
da being pure Latin for the same In
sect, which has been known for cen
turtles by this name. A commoner Ct
cada Is found In many localities ev-
cry year. But the seventeen-year va
riety, as Webster's New international
dictionary summarizes, spends almost
all Of Its seventeen or thirteen years
under ground In the larval condition.
After emerging It quickly changes to
the adult condition, In which II lives
only a few weeks"
Locust, by the way, is also nearly
pure Latin name. The word lobster
is variation or corruption of locust,
through the Anglo Saxon.

Various Reasons for
Extending Lies Span

Look herel Whereas, in 1870, peo-
pie over sixty composed so per cent
of the total population, they now com
pose rs per cent. DR.. Ira s. Vile,
an expert in the intensive study of the
figures of longevity, says so. People
not only live longer, but they act
younger, let us tell you. They have
their teeth longer, too; consequently,
they can eat the kind Of food that
keeps them going. When one is re-
duced to spoon vittles, one can scarce.
ly survive so many years; and, per-
haps, some might testify that 1t isn't
worth 1t.
After flaming youth, there is some
thing else left to continue on earth
for-the discoveries Of science and
the ever-cheering promise that our po-
litical party will lick the other one
at the next election. The hope Of vic
tory keeps people allve-and the In
teresting news in the newspapers.
When people had nothing to read
but Fox Book of Martyrs and their
almanacs they grew tired; they
drowsed, halfbaked before their enor-
nous fireplaces, went to bed early and
died of ennul. without n best seller
to read and no movie to go to, they
quite naturally dried up and wlthered
away. They contracted misery in
their chests and didn't know enough
to quit eating vinegar pie.
Now, TO per cent of them live be-
yond sixty, and in few years Is per

"Adam" and eve" Not
Really Proper Names

The Old Testament is true" ac-
count of the rise Of man, even though
many of the stories are symbolic
campfire" tales, Basil King, the noted
novelist. wrote shortly before his
death. Explaining this contradiction
which has caused SO much confusion
and strife In the world, Mr.. Kings
article In McCalrs declared:
at was pity that the terms Adam
aAd Eve had been taken by our trans
latOrs TO be proper names. In reality
they were not names at all. Adam
was simply Man; Eve was Life or
Woman or Mother, according to the
shade Of significance you attached to
the word.
"The story of the conflict between
the pastoral and agricultural actlvl-
ties of mankind Is given In the Bible
under the persOnlhed names Of Cain
and Abel This Is not a tale OF the
murder OF one man by another. To
consider 1t that is to dwarf II and de
prlve II Of Its Significance. II Until.
ates the contest between the two
classes for the domination Of their
time. Cain was tlller of the ground,
Abel a keeper Of sheep.
"Caln and Abel represented mate
rial interests, with the inception OF
that Industrial warfare which is still
a prime element In social life. But
there was a third blend In the human
cOnsciOusness-th intellectual and
spirltual--personlne by a third son,
Seth, otherwise the appointed one,
represented that. Seth was the be-
ginning of spiritual development.
"The Bible Isn't the history Of re-
llglon. It's the history of men while
they were discovering the purpose Of
religion. II Is true history to the ex
tent that men Of 1000 and sometimes
truth. Truth never changes, but our
understanding Of It does. The world
changes so quickly that an Old-fash
Toned history Is almost as out Of date
as an Old-fashiOned novel.
"The Bible Is condensed truth. The
knowledge that had been accumulat-
ing for perhaps 5000 or 5000 years,
during which time nothing could be
written down. would have to be con-
densed In order to allow the mind to
deal with It. The marvellous thing is
that this outline follows so closely
that which modern science has traced
for u.s."

MANY "Word Blind"

1t has been figured out that one
child In 1000 In England is sword
blind" They are unable to learn to
read and spell, and this was originally
thought to be due to feeble-mlnded

cause may be traced to defective de.
velopment in the temporal lobe of the
brain.
It is said that the destruction of
one brain hemisphere may bring about
the loss Of associative function, but
record would be left on the cells Of

Hollow Wall Deadens Sound

Soundprooing Involves careful
study and practice, and scientists are
just beginning to discover the proper
way to protect interiors against noise.
Among other interesting facts they
have learned is that, under ordinary
conditions, various materials that are
supposed to deaden sound actually
transmit It, so great care has to be
exercised In constructing walls or
other areas make them soundproof.
For example, hollow walls, In many
instances, are better insulators against
sound than those with an inner space
filled with sawdust.-Popular Me
