Powdered Mummy Remedies

Mummies have always been par
ticularly prolific of legend. In the
Middle ages, powdered mummy was
considered a potent specific for
many diseases, and may still be pur-
chased in the East for medicinal
purposes. But the effects of these
ancient cadavers have not always
been benign. There is a tale
told of the mummy of Rameses II,
the great Pharaoh, which was dis
covered in the Valley of the Kings.
Sscrilegious antiquarians put the
royal corpse on exhibition in the
Cairo museum: Rameses rose in
wrath to a sitting posture, hit his
head against the top of the case and
cracked the glass. 1t is said His
Majesty uttered strange sounds
probably old Egyptian for "Ouch!"
and several persons were killed in
the ensuing panic.

The Comic Hand

The Comic hand is medium-sized,
tapering slightly in the palm. The
fingers are long and tapering, full
at the base and slightly pointed at
the nail. With this kind Of hand,
according to a writer in Pearson's
London Weekly, you are artistic
and luxury-loving, but are inclined
to be over-impulsive and indolent.
Not for you is the strife of the
world and you would far sooner be
left to vegetate in some quiet back
water of life. Emotional and sensi-
tive you have in you the qualities
of the great artist and the world
famous musician. However, wheth-
er or not you will make use Of
these fine qualities depends largely
on whether or not your hands are
hard and firm. The firmer they are
the more likely it is that you will
make your mark in the world.

ing yourself great anguish and
mental sickness, when it is evident
even to yourself that the worry
ing is useless and uncalled for. You
will meet with no unpleasant Oc-
currence in the near future, but see
a doctor and get yourself in con-
ditiOn again.
M. C. A.-Which woman is my
husband going around with, and
does he give her his money?
Ans: Your husband has a
speaking acquaintance with several
women, but he is not interested in
any of them. Certainly not to the
extent that he would give them any
part of his earnings. He has a
fOndness for gambling that claims
quite a lot of his money.
A. R. il enjoy reading your
column and wish to ask if my hus-
band will ever come back to me?
Ans: 1t is not possible that
your husband could ever forget the
many pleasant years that you and
he have passed together. He is a
bit peeved at the present but there
isn't anything in the world that
could keep him away forever.
When he returns he will be more
agreeable.
P. R. WI do hate to admit it
to anyone but 1 am very dissatis-
fed with the career or profession
have chosen and would like to
know what I should do about it?
Ans: Give it up for you will
never like it any better. You aren't
the type of girl that enjoys

Weather Men Grade Winds
According to the Force

Technically speaking, winds are
graded according to their force.
Strong" is the term for any wind
Of thirty miles an hour. Fifty miles
is the speed at which gales howl.
After seventy-five miles an hour
they become hurricanes, and any
wind falling between these two is
known as a whole gale"
The fastest straight hurricane"
ever measured was one at Mount
Washington, New Hampshire, which
reached the tremendous speed Of
231 miles an hour, though explorers
say that in Central Asia winds ex-
coed even that velocity, observes a
writer in London Answers Maya
zine.
Tornadoes, typhoons, and cy-
clones are something apart. Unless
actually caught up by one a person
has absolutely no conception how
demoralizing they can be, for they
are more devastating than any ca
trastophe except an earthquake. It
is queer, incidentally, that more oft
en- than not earthquakes are accom-
panied by tornadoes.
Those who have watched them
say that tornadoes start when two
enormous banks of clouds travelling
in opposite directions come togeth-
er. A violent whirl begins at cloud
level and rapidly works down to
earth. The speed at which the in
ternal whirling currents move is es-
timated to be anything from 300 to
500 miles an hour.

Ancient Holyrood Castle
Once Was a ROYAL Palace

Edinburgh, the capital and show
city of Scotland, consists Of an old
town and a new, both as much I'M
like each other as are Paris and
Constantinople. Both are situated on
lofty, parallel ridges, separated by
broad, deep ravine planted with
trees and shrubbery, across which
stretches a bridge Of giddy height.
Holyrood palace, long the seat
of Scottish royalty, is perhaps the
outstanding historical attraction in
Edinburgh, says a writer in the Los
Angeles Times. Holyrood is tn e
thank offering Of a Scottish king,
David !, who met the adventure
which started the story surrounding
the old place. Attacked by an infur-
lated stag here, the legend goes, he
was miraculously saved by the lost
Holy Cross, or Rood, which fe ii
from the stays antlers, and at
sight Of which the animal turned
and fed. In his joy over his deliver
ance, the king erected an abbey
on the spot as a mark Of gratitude.
Four hundred years later the abbey
was replaced by a great palace,
built by King James v.
Many royal names are written
into the history Of the old gray
pile, but the nimbus of romance
encircles especially the memory Of
three: Mary Queen of Scots, Lord
Darnley, her husband, and David
Rizzio, her chief minister.

Youth Needs Much Sleep

A boy fifteen or sixteen years old
needs more sleep than at any other
time in his life after his infancy.
He should have about nine to ten
hours a day of sleep. He also needs
more food at that time than at any
other because of rapid development
at that period of his life. Much Of
his future health depends on the
care exercised through adolescence.

Monday, July 5

Howdy Folks:
Sal isn't going to write a very
lengthy column this week cause
she's too busy enjoying herself up
in the north woods. This country

too fine. I wouldn't mind staying

"There's A Lull In Ny Life" seems
to be the top-ranking song in the
Twin Cities this week. (You can
give me "FOr Sentimental Rea-

The Barring Panic in England

The Barring panic in England in
1890 came at the end Of a period
of violent transportation. The fail
ure of the brokerage house Of Bar
ing Brothers precipitated the panic
which at once spread to a number
of other banks and brokerage
houses. The intensity was allevi-
ated by loans of gold obtained by
the Bank Of England from the Bank
of st. Petersburg and the Bank of
France.

STREAMLINE: know that /
am very young and maybe / should
not ask this question, but I would
like to know when I will be mar
ried?
Ans: 1t is easily seen that
despite the question of age you are
not yet ready for marriage. When
you have acquired a few more
years of age, and learned to con-
slider the matter seriously, you
will have no difficulty in securing
an ideal mate. 1t will be at least
FOUR YEARS.
M. T. H.: / am dissatisfied with
my married life. Will my husband
ever change? Is there any rea-
son why we should remain to-
gether?
Ans: You have just cause to be
dissatisfied. In your years of
pleading you have failed to infu-
ence your husband. 1t would
probably do more good to "read
the riot act" to him. Take a firm
stand and insist that he show more
consideration for your welfare.
M. E. EVIL you please tell
me where my son is and why he
doesn't write to me?
Ans: Probably the chief reason
he doesn't write is thOughtlessness.
He is very much interested in his
work and also has been bitten re-
Gently by the "lOve bug" cOnse-
quently lac has not taken time to
write. He is now located in Wash
ingtOn.
L. What is wrong with my
daughter that makes her run after
this boy so much?
Ans: The child has been denied
the usual privilege enjoyed by other
girls her age, hence she feels that
she must seek her own pleasure in
her own way. Allow her more
privileges and invite the young
people to your home and she will
overcome this attraction for the
boy without harm being done.
w. R. S.-My father wants me
to come and live with him for the
summer and / can't make up my
mind. Will there be any misunder-
standings if go?
Ans: It's your duty to go re-
CARELESS of what you may think
about him now. His new wife will
show you a swell time. AS long as
you accept money from him you
should certainly spend a couple of
weeks with him each summer. He
isn't half as bad as he has been
pictured.
M. v. H. R.-Tell me what to do
as I am nearly crazy with worry.
have wronged my husband and if
tell him it will hurt him terribly
and he loves me dearly.
Ans: If you are fully aware of
the wrong done him by yourself
and wish to be forgiven ID. then /
would suggest that you withhold
this knowledge from him and seek
forgiveness through being a bet
ter and more faithful wife. A con-
fessiOn on your part would only
cause him to suffer.
E. v. ST. have a boy friend
who says he loves me and wishes
to marry me. Is this true or is he
only kidding me?
Ans: This boy is rather fond
Of you as a friend and companion,
but his interest does not constitute
love. You will have many pleasant
times with him and see him often,
as he lives NEXT DOOR, but mar
riage is not likely to follow.
M. L. WHY did the letters
that 1 mailed come back to me ? !
Will I ever see the party to whom |
the letters were addressed?
Ans: The party to whom you
sent the letters has moved to an
other city so it was impossible for
him to receive them. II is doubt
full that you will ever see him again
as his interest is now conferred
elsewhere.
