little woman out in the yard
doing the family washing. Al
thought the weather was ex-
tremely hot, she had a blazing
fire built around a large pot and
she was standing over 1t punch
ing clothes down with a long
stick, when she was not engaged
in repleniShing the fire, pump
ing water-Or rather drawing it
from the Withholding after her
children, or running in and out
of the kitchen to see about the
dinner she was cooking.
"She would then bow down
over that board and that hot
water and with her hands scrub
those clothes for probably an
hour or two. Then she would
put them on a block and take
a battling stick and beat them
till it seemed as if she was knock
ing all the buttons off. / pre-
sumo she had to sit up at night
and sew those buttons back on
while she rested"
After watching this scene for
4 while Mr.. Rankin drove sadly
away. He returned some months
later to gaze elatedly at the
change. The whole place had
been electrified. He looked again
1T the woman. Said he:
"That woman looked 20 years
younger than she did when /
had last seen her Scrubbing
those clothes in the hot sun.
She was happy and enthuSi-
aStic over these new additions
to her home. She showed us
through her kitchen. 1t was
as clean as a soda fountain"

on effects Of nicotine on laboratory
animals.
He noted that the nicotine and its
aromatic products in tobacco are in
the form of an oil which turns into
smoke at q lower temperature than
that of burning tobacco. He found
that electric heaters, set 30 as never
to ignite the tobacco, will convert the
nicotine and aromatics into smoke.
The heaters are two types. For
pipes they are built into the bowls.
For cigars and cigarettes they are
hOlder-shaped ovens into which the
entire cigar or cigarette is thrust. The

Old Fortress May Solve
Inca Treaaure PuzxIas

Does the crumbllng fortress of Mac
chu Picchu, where a desperate band
Of Incas made their last stand against
Pizarro and his conQuistadOrs in 1882,
hold the secret Of the fabulous Incan
golden treasures? Is it a landmark OF
the secret trail along which the gold
was carried out of the reach Of the
invading white men?
Macchu Picchu, its stone walls with
their interlocking masonry still intact
after hundreds Of years, is a more or
less familiar sight to travellers who
brave the mountain trails into the Pc
ruvian interior. The story Of the In
can treasure, too, is familiar to every
reader of history: How the Spaniards,
hungry for gold, held an Incan chief
captive, and how he was to be ran
somed with pure gold.
Part of the gold was delivered, but
when the Incas learned of the Span
iards' treachery and the murder Of
their king. they turned and fed into
the interior with millions of dollars
worth of gold bars.
This old stone fort, like the more
famous Temple of the Sun at Cuzco,
is materpiece Of architecture and Is

lized' man.-Washington Post.

Boat caulked With Butter

An ancient-type Tibetan buttered
boat (spelling is correct: not "butter
boat") has been added to the exhibits
of the Field Museum of Natural His
tory in Chicago, says Kansas City Star
Science Service. 1t consists of a
frame of bent willow rods covered
with hides; the seams were caulked
with butter, which the Tibetans use
for general-purpose grease as well
as for food. Although of modern date
1t Is Of ancient pattern, resembling the
Gaelic coracles of western Britain and
the skin boats used centuries ago Oh
the Tigris and Euphrates 1t is practi-
cally circular in outline, so that any
direction is forward. But in spite of
its awkward shape It will carry sur
prising loads; the late DR.. Berthold
Laufer used this identical craft on an
expedition in Tibet, and found it would
carry a couple Of men and 200 pounds
Of goods.
