French “Convulsionnaires.” The Convulsionnaires were a curious group who flourished in France in the early part of the Eighteenth century. They were in the habit of meeting in St. Medard’s churchyard, in the suburbs of Paris, in which was located the tomb of Abbe Francois de Parls, where countless miracles were al Jeged to have %en performed. The members of the sect threw themselves into the most violent contortions, rolled on the ground, imitated birds and animals and fishes, ‘and when en- tirely exhausted fainted or went into convulsions, At length Louis XV issued an order against them, ordering them to be im- prisoved if found “carrying on” in this fashion. But even with these strict regulations against them it was difmi- cult to stamp. out the feryor entirely for a great many years. Word “Bum” Has Dignified History. The word “bum,” which' Is" consld- ered by nearly everyone as a pure Amerlcanism of the most vulgar sort, has In reality a very dignitied history. It was first used in England more than two centurles ago in the form of “hummer.” A bummer was a man who peddled fish outside the regular mar- kets and these persons were, of course, looked down upon and held in contemp!t by the regular dealers. The word finnlly gained a general significance and came to mean any dishonest per- son or one of {rregular habits. It ap- pears in the English market by-laws of the Sgventeenth century in the form . of ““Bummaree.” The word appeared in the United States during the gold days in Call- fornia and gradually made its way east, e e Twisted, but Meant Well.

Herman Milbred, West Hotel, Be- midji, says: “About three years ago my back seemed to give out on me, caused by trouble I had with*my kid- neys. I was doing some plumbing work at the time when I felt a dull, steady ache across the small of my back. When I got up in the morn- ing I felt tired and worn-out. My back gave out quite easily. Then, too, my kidneys weren’t acting prop- erly and between these symptoms, I knew I needed attention. Looking for a reliable kidney medicine to rid me of this trouble ‘before it got any further, I remembered what I had seen of Doan’s Kidney Pills, so I bought a box at Barker's Drug Store. Faithful use of Doan’s cured me. I took several boxes and have had no return of the trouble since.” GRACE F. KAERCHER 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.

The reflectors are placed back to back %o as to throw powerful shafts in op- posite directions. . The shafts of light are projected at right angles to the wind, being kept that way by a wind- vane which governs the mechanism. Thus there is avoidance of blinding aviators by throwing the light In their faces.—Philadelphia- Ledger. LIGHTS TO GUIDE AIRMEN Powerful Beacons Also Utilized to Send Messages to the Men Pilot. ing Flying Machines.. An “aerolighthouse,” which s meant also to, serve as a signal tower, is the inveution of James F. Hutchin- son, of Cozad, Neb. It is designed to illuminate . avigtion flelds at night, thereby facilitating the figing and land- ing of aircraft, and to acquaint flylng men with thefr whereabouts by dot- and-dash flushes spelling out the name of the fleld. The tower, as approved, is octagonal in shape, with walls above the sub- stantial base of glass. In the top PROOF OF GENOA’S ANIQUITY Italian City Was a Place of Impor tance in.the Fifth Century Before Christ. An inscription’in the cathedral of St. Lawrence contains the traditional account of Genoa's foundation by “Janus, the first king of Italy, and de- scended from the Giants,” adding that he was “great-grandson of Noah,” and that he founded the city “in the time of Abraham.”. As a matter of fact, its name is derived not from “Janus” but from the Latin “genu” (“knee”), owing to the shape of the coast, but its an- tiquity was conclusively proved in 1808 by the discovery of anclent vases of the Fifth century before Christ, which, if not used by the con- temporaries-of Abraham, were at least of the same age as the Persian wars in Greece and the early republic in Rome. The first mention of the city, how- ever, in Roman history is its destruc- tion by Mago, the Carthagenian gen- eral, during the second Punic war, and its retounding by the,Romans in 203, One memorial .of Beman Genoa stili survives in the shape of a bronze tab- let, now in the town hall, containing the judgment of Roman arbitrators in a dispute between ‘the city and an- other place in 117 B. C. Peocopius accurately described Genoa as ‘“weld situated as a port of:call for the voyagé to Gaul and to Spain,” as it still is. i part is a beacon light for signals. The section next beneath contains re- flectors and electric lamps for illumi- nating the field. The beacon consists of five powerful reflecting lamps. - One of them,” in the middle, throws a vertical shaft of light into the sky, to show -at night the loca- tion of the flying field. The remaining Cour, which project their beams out- ward and upward (the lamps belng suitably tilted for that purpuse), are so controlled electrically by eircuit- maker and circuit-breaker that, with a proper arrangement of plugs, they can be made to spell out in flashes the name of the field or give any other signals desired. TESTS VIGOR OF BANK ROLLS Majority Wither Quickly, but Some Grow Robyst When Exposed to New York’s,Climate. New York has long been known in the provinces as the nesting place of bank rolls. In this mest either they grow or they die young. A bank roll 1s a sensitive plant, as it were, being influenced quickly and permanently ! by “ciimatic "Ana “Qiplomatic changes. Nothing can become discouraged more quickly than a bank roll in New York, and nothing can gain a satisfied and prosperous maturity more quickly it it gets the right start, attends to its own business and- keeps away from strangers. . . Generally speaking, I would recom- mend this town as the best health re- sort for bank rolls in the world. Some bank rolls come here in the full view of perfect health, with perfectly nor- mal chest measurements and waist- lines suited to thelr age, and immedi- ately go into a decline which no science is able to stem. They seem to Dbe victims of the old-fashioned disease kaown as galloping consumption. Others come ‘here in a very frail state of health, puny in fact, and by Judicious exercise take on weight and require larger and larger belts. Cir- cumstances alter bank rolls.—Roy K. Moulton, in the New York Mail, QRIENTAL Superstition?— Perhaps so—but at least an e pual gift. Dropints ¥ and ask ESB.
