In a body to which the people send 150 lawyers,. whose trade i3 to ‘question everything, yield nothing, and talk by the hour? " That 150 lawyers should do business together ought not to be expected.” Multiply the above by four, add sev- eral hundred new subjects for debate, divide into two parties and you have the national legislature in the year of grace 1920, remarks the Home Sector. Probably it could be calculated by an efficlent expert that the amoynt of en. ergy, time, money and lung power wasted In one session . by congress would be enough to drain every swamp In this country, irrigate every barren acre and rescue and educate every child laborer, with enough left over then to support and train every wounded doughboy. As’it 1s, small wonder that gentle knocks at the door of congress are drowned out, by the on!orlul ‘uproar “Back to the Time He Spent In Hot Brazil. ! “Among the members of a firm hav- I,hg,unm American connections are the Joneses, father and son.

Instde, CHARGED WITH DESERT SAND What ls Known as the “Red Wind" ‘Makes Life Miserable Along the Iodlumnlln. Boionmgn in the Mw-rum xot any 'length of time see the red wind as well as feel its oppressive influ- ence. It blows from the deserts of Af- rica and derives its hame from the particles of red sand with which it is charged. Should rain' descend while this wind prevails, the sand becomes mud, mamu‘emutho“nmdmw ers.”. In its dry state. it 1s more oppress- ive by far than any other wind known to the Medl not excepting the black “sirocco.” = Its effects are in many ways remarkable. The sand, of excessive fileness, enters between your eyelids and your éyes; it gets into your nostrils and down your throat; it adheres to your skin and works itself into your watch; it in- creases the annoyance of mosquitoes, and it is so dry that, as you write or read, the paper curls up as if exposed to fire-heat.» Tablas and chairs of sea- 5 2+ Uses of Mica. | _'hé atuff we call mica, bas ‘been w since very anclent times in India 20 many odd purposes, Washermen med 1t to give a sparkle to cloth. 3¢ is’ the material out of which “un- Bred¥able” lamp chimneys are manu- ' #actured and fs used for windows and material for pottery, and for y'bicks of mirrors.

Colecting Truffles.” ' ~'* “Truffles?” sald the boy. “Why! They're a sort of mughroom that don’t come up.” ' Accurate enough, except- ing that truffles are not mushreoms. However, they are fungl (and are cousing to the mushroom) and they taste and look (inside) a good deal like mushrooms. The best truffles in the world grow in France. Other spe- cles grow in Italy and Spain and even {n England. Truffies grow underground, much like potatoes, except that they grow individually and not on the roots of a plant. In appearance they are glo- bose, bright brown and black, and are covered with polygonal warts, not 80 very unllke the eyes of a potato. Their flesh is a blackish gray, seamed with white velns. They smell mighty good when they are ripe—something like crushed strawberries. Later the smell grows stronger, but it doesn't recall the perfume of the struwberries then—far from it. Oldest of Industries. Perhaps the oldest of all induetries 1s sheep raising, for it was practiced even before agriculture. Wool is the product of cultivation .or domestica- tion, for ‘there_ar¢ no’ wild animals which closely: resemble the wool-bear-. ing sheep. Floyd W. Parsons In the. Saturday Evening Pm says that with- the discovery that cloth could be made from wool came an effort to fmprove the fleece by selection and breeding. The early Romans were most success- ful In this pursuit, and their endeavors along this line resulted in developing a fleece of great fineness. After the conquest of the Iberian pentnfula, Ro- ‘man sheep were ‘introduced tnto Spaln, where they so greatly improved the native flocks that even during the Ro- man supremacy. Spanish wool led the world’s markets, a prestige held for many centuries.. \ . Japs Hold Fuji’ Sacred. Fuji is the name of Japan's most famous mountain, and, writes the Ja- panese correspondent of the London Morning Post, no Japanese thinks anything of himself until he has made some _effort to .ascend its sacred heights. To climb Fuji is a religious duty- to most Japanese, while only a pleasure to some and a boast to oth- ers. Its gracefal cone, like an inverted fan, is so familiay to all admirers of Japanese art that it needs no descrip- tion here. But in-Japan every moun- tain has a spirit; aod the spirit of a beautiful or aweinspiring mmm is to be mlctly ruvectd. \“ lu(herllo lot The Ddlv Pioneer:.
