But fons differ. el . According to one authority the scar- let triangles, red fishtail and half moon, originated from dabs ‘of ver- million placed_here and there on the cheeks at haphazard to represent a naughty boy who had been at the jam | pot. . : Another says that the' pantomime clown’s reddened face is intended as a burlesque of the rouge-tinted cheeks “of the pantomime Columbine; while yet a -third has it that the crimsen patches ‘are a sprvival from the ea_z!‘y | mystery plays, when'the clown wuy'a |.demon, and :reg all over. . . - " The the s also been held that the modern -¢lown in pantomime 1¥.a ACCORDING TO FIXE/D _DESIG!- used as to the why and the wherefore opin: | i~ manmncnmnnnnnns direct_descéndant. of Momus, tlie god: | of mockery of the early mystery plays | and’ masques, who was always repre-. sented with a huge gaping mouth. The; red fishtall is merely the survival of “that part of the mediéval makeup which almed at producing an appar- ent enlargement jof the mouth. - These curious scarlet symbols are ‘only found on the cheeks of panto. ‘mime clowns. —The ordinary circus clown does not paint his cheeks. He paints only his nose, with a view " to poking fun at the “boss,” the ring- # master, whose nasal organ, in regard to the old-time circuses at all events, was more often than not apt to be highly colored.—Pearson’s Weekly. FISH HAS TWO UGLY WEAPONS Giant Ray Said to Use fiouth Like a Shark and Is Provided With Dangerous Tail. — A so-called, devilfish that is com- mon on American coasts from 30 de- grees north latftude to about the same degrees southi of the line, is the giant ray. This fish looks very like a skate, but grows to an enormous size. It lles “on the sea bottom, cevering square yards of coral sand, and if attacked may prove not only nasty, but most dangerous.

And just now they are agreeing to spend $31,000 more to put the Bible into type and plates and to print and bind an edi- tion. However, it Is expected that coples .will be. sold to sufficient value to pay the printing bill, and it is fur- ther explained.that these sums for ex- penditures are Mexican, which money i8'the standard of China at this: time. It has beer found by American schol- aPs that the ‘Chinese Mandarin Is-a wonderfully ‘flexible: language; eapable of expressing almost- every” shade of meaning. -More than twenty-flve years has heen’ the- period . of preparation, and foremost American and Chinese .scholars have had part.. The aim has been. not only to give the Chinese people a Bible but to give them one that is .pure in language and will set. the standard for the republic that English translations set for the Eng- lish-speaking world, This new Bihle s for people who number more than a fourth of the world population. < “Bluebeard’s” Home Stripped. “What troublous tjmes we.are lv- ing in! Even one's property is no longer safe,” was the angry comment | of Landru, under arrest In Paris for | the alleged murder of several of his sweethearts, when informed that his villa at Gambais, near Paris (where the police say the women disap- peared), had been broken into and ran- sacked from cellar to attic by souvenir hunters. Since the villa had been closed by the authorities, pending the~outcome of Landru’s trial, no watchman had been detailed to guard the house. An officlal who visited the villa a short time ago found the shutters, doors and windows smashed. Everything port- able had been taken, from kitchen utensils and etchings to-chair legs.— Continental - Edition of the London Mail. ° DAILY PIONEER Joan of Arc House. In 1911 the city of Paris bought the old residence of the archbishops of Sens In the Saint Paul quarter with no particular thought as to what use would be made of it.

In the southern part of the Gulf of Mex- ico specimens of the glant ray have been killed up to 18 feet across. The ray has two horns, one on each side of its eyes, the latter being green, hideous and cruel beyond expression. A curious habit of this fish is to break water like a whale, falling with a thunderous sp'ash that is heard for a long distance. ‘ Plano Requires Fine Timber.. There is no other industry for which a greater variety of fine timber is re- quired, and none in which the timber must be seasoned more carefully than plano-building. The varieties include Oanadian spruce, American oak and whitewood, Honduras mahogany and best English beech. Sounding boards are made of Swiss pine, the “Ahies BExcelsa,” which Is nothing but the Ohristmas tree with which we are all o familiar. All this timber has to be seasonmed In a special heating chamber, where it 1s subjected for days together to a powerful draft of dry air.
