OPENING SUNDAY Charles Ray will be the attraction at the Rex theater for two days, be- ginning Sunday, in “Scrap Irom,” a First National attraction. In this production Mr. Ray makes his debut as director, a goal he has been aiming at since he became a Tecognized star. “Scrap Iron” is his most ambitious effort to date. 'While retaining a great deal of the humor which has made him so popular, in “‘Scrap Iron” ‘he has a role which exacts heavy de- mands upon him for emotional act- ing. He meets them with the high- est sort of efficiency. ? In the role of John Steel he is the only support of a widowed invalid amother.

The last two. stories filmed by the Universal west- ern star did not call for any spectac- ular horsemanship, even on the part! of Carey himself.| But in his latest]| production, ‘“The - Wallop,” which | now s to be seen for the last time at ‘the Grand theater the Harry Carey fans will see their idol as they like hiny best---a hard riding adven- turer, surrounded by his corps of broncho straddlers, and indulging in stunts that would seem fantastic were they not periormed in that human, natural fashion typical of Harry Carey. | ! Thus it happens that the Univer-| sal star has always at his command | abouti thirty of the most skilled rid- ers.in the west, everyone an expert lin all the arts and. tricks of the range and corral, and by their ap- pearance in a score of the Universal star’s pictures ithey are all familiar to the vast army of movie fans thru- out the world. Carey’s Flying Squadron will be very much in evidence in his latest production, “The Wallop:" unusually capable | MICROBE HAS MADE TROUBLE “Miracle Bacillus” Really Quite Simple. in Operation, but Has Not Been Understood. One of the most curlously Intere: ing of iicrobes s the “milracle baclllus"—known to sclence as B. pro- digiosus. In its time it has been re- sponsible for a whole lot of excite- ment. In former days it used to lappen once in a while that communion bread developed on its surface stains of what looked like blood. The superstitious took it to be really blood, attributing the phenomenon to miracle. Today it Is known that such stalns, which sometimes appear on eggs or in milk, are produced by a colormak- ing bacterium, incidentally to process of feeding upon the substance. They merely indicate the presence of colonles of a specles of baclllus that s now identlfled, “cultures” of which can easlly be made. When stains of the kind were found on food In former times, they were commonly attributed to witches or gome other supernatural agency. The baclllus in question, feeding on de-+ ‘composing material scattered over the ground, has been responsible for many tales of “bloody rains,” which were re- garded. as portents of evil happenings to come. - People In earller days were less ad- dicted to the habit of bathing than is now customary, and sometimes crim- son spots appeared on parts of thelr (| translated about the time of the great- persons where. perspiration and dirt had ' accumulated. These were very alarming, belng suggestive of “bloody |. swents,” but what the sifferer really needed was a good scrub.—Philadel- phla Ledger. BIRDS ATTACK COMMON ENEMY Feathered Creatures Gather .In Flock to Drive Away and Punish Marauding Squirrel. I was approaching casually a small copse, belng attracted by the chatter of many birds. T got as near as I could without disturbing them and saw a squirrel being attacked by six missel thrushes and two Jackdaws. livery time it cllmbed a'few feet-two or more birds would swoop down and flap their wings at the terrified animal. This continued for about three minutes. As T got closer the commotion ceased and the exhausted squirrel scrambled up to'a fork In the tree, where it lay - motionless, apparently completely ouf of breath. A careful search revealed { po thrushes’ ‘nests; but twenty yards ‘away the Jackdaws had a nest fn an old tree.

Dollar Sign in Brazil. The monetary unit in Brazil :is the Portuguese real, * though: ‘fn theory only, for no.such jeolnsexists; hence | in practice only the plural reis is used and the unit is replly the milrefs, or one thousand rei: For gome years the milreis had reglained at the fixed value of 15 to the English pound, or about 3,250 reis to the Amerlcan dol- fMr. In larger transactiohs the unit is the contv, one million reis. Gold IS never seen In circulation in Brazil. From the milrels to the conto there are paper notes, silver-coins from five hundred to two thousand reis and nickel pleces of four, two and one hundred, the last the tostao of popu- lar parlance. The Brazilinn places his dollar slgn after the milreis and before the reis, so that 3$250 means the equivalent of a whole dollar and the man who pays $500 for a news- paper or a small glass of Iced cane Juice does not feel that he has been unusually extravagant, at least if he has lived enough in Brazil to get the local point of view. { The Bible Translation, Landor sald that “to talk well we ,must arop -our Greek and Latin out of sight,” and Coleridge thought it “a |kind of providence that our Bible was ivsr strength of the langunge.”—aA., lBrons«-m Alcott, | When Women Took Snuff. | Queen Cliarlotte opened a snuff account at the Old Snuff house in Hay- market, in 1799, and continued with- out a break until 1818, Princess | Charlotte (in 1S09) and Princess ll')llzuhelh (1812) were goo® customers.

There is a “tiffin” or lunch period, probably two hours long, followed by an early closing. The American salesman, accustomed to jumping from town to town on fast trains, seeing customers early and late, and sending daily orders to the “house,” is hardly the one to tackle the deliberateness of India, where the “house” is best forgotten in the sales talk and where the potency of the first person singular is undeniable. “The Modern_ Spirit.
