16 Dr. Einstein's Fiddle Nearly Wins a Job and a Meal at a ! Banquet—Mining Engineer White Comes to New York With a War Record— Anec- dotes and Views of Visitors The pipe which Dr. Binstein never fmokes and his fiddle have probably caused more comment among non- scientists of New York than his theo- ries of relativity. It 1¢ a well-known fact that the pipe, of virgin briar, has never been used, yet the eminent @cientist brandishes it when he talks to reporters and points with it when be lectures. The violin Is a different matter. Dr. Einstein, in the seclusion of his fooms at the Commodore, plays it poftly and well and he carries it with him wherever he goes. Like the lady on the avenue carries ber tiny dog, the eminent doctor carries his fiddle. Tho only difference is that the fiddle fs of some use. Dr. Einstein was returning from a Jecture, and as he entered the eleva- tor of the Commodore, five other men, also carrying musical instruments, were in the same car. They were the musicians for a banquet which was echeduled fer that evening. The elo- wator stopped at the second floor; Dr. Elnsiein got out to allow the other men to leave the car. The ele- yator boy, thinking him to be one of the musicians, ciosed the door and went his upward way. ‘The relativiist was puzzied, but he patiently watied for another car. A head waiter spied him. “Right this way," he said, taking the doctor by the arm and leading tim to the banquet hall, Dr. Einstein protested in German, Which the waiter did, not understand. “Hurry up,” he said. “Get in there @nd tune up. Go with the rest of the @rchestra.” The doctor refused to budge. More- | Over, he cuid many things in German. } Finaily an interpreter was found who | @sked questions and explained mat- } ters to the head waiter. Apologies 5 i Seorsuaeea followed, and the scientist was al- Towed to take the next elevator to his suite He still carries the fiddle with him, But he has learned to say in English: 5 “I am not a musician; | am Dr, Ein- 7 @tein.” He hopes that those words ‘will keop him away from banquets to i which he has not been invited. of e Robeson T, White, a mining engi- eer who is now stopping at the Wal- E dort, owes his life to the fact that a servant named Ali ran away and leit him unprotected. Nevertheless he ‘was the first man to be wounded on the Russo-Turkish frontier in the @reat war. f “In 1914, ‘Mr. White, then tn the @ervice of the Morgans, was at work @n a copper mine in extreme South- ern Russia, a few miles from the Turkish boundary, OfMcials were not accustomed to wear arms then, but @ach was followed by a servant who oarried several pistols and a dagger.

His horse was shot from under him, and one of the bull went through the horse and wounded him in the left leg. He crouched on the ground, and tho Turks charged toward him, shooting continuously, Suddenly they turned and fled. Mr. White soon found that Ali had recovered his nerve on reach- tng the village, which was visible at the far end of the ravine, and that he workmen were running around in great excitement, The Turks had seen this, and thinking that an armed force might attack them, had turned abruptly and fled, Some time afterward he learned that his was the distinction of receiving the firm wound of the war on that front, But if All had stayed both would have been killed. eee “While It is customary to speak poetically of lambs, sheep are far more graceful or beautiful creatures,” accomling to BE. ©.

That's why the MASCO will do the work in half the time. While you are at it buy three MASCO Mops. One handle will do for all. Use one for a wet mop. Keep one for a dry mop. Soak one in any good floor oil, let it dry, and you've got the best oil mop you ever used. Go to any store that sells mops and ask for a MASCO. You'll know it by its wrapper and trade mark. No other mop is individually wrapped. Ask for the 8 oz. size for household use. For the big job there is a big MASCO. The 8 oz. MASCO retails for 45c. The 12 oz. for 60c ‘The 16 o7. for 75e.

Get a mop that likes its job. Get a MASCO because it is made to do mopping with. A mop that sticks up its nose at dirty water and tries to push it away isn’t tobetrusted. The MASCOisn’t that kind of a mop. It rolls up its sleeves, hops to it and presto the work's all done. When you buy a MASCO you buy just the mop head—a bundle of soft clean, extra ab- sorbent yarn—My! how absor- bent it is.
