T h e r e a r e brides, even toduy, who

' t h e prevention of homesickness—is the
Ipart most extensively believed in.
; though both first and second propositions have their votaries. T h e source
of this superstition Is the same as that
of many o t h e r s — t h e Idea of the primitive man that a n y t h i n g closely assoc i a t e d with a person carne to p a r t n k e ,

Individuality. Unknown to herself, this
Idea iwrslsts In fhe bride's "uncon

and to it is adiTed the consciousness
of handling In her daily task an
article which brings before her fancy
h e r mother engaged in hers. ' T h e r e
is a sense of companionship In It and.
likewise the half-iormulated Idea that
she, like her mother, Is now set out
on a domestic c a r e e r ol her own. Were

mother, but it Is associated with her
In her eapucity a s housewife—a something of her ntotl >r with her, and
helping her, and useful to her in her
daily tasks—and so she is not homesick ; a fact which she ascribes to
some magical properties in the dishrag and not to the magic of psychology.
Tlie good luck idea comes J naturally through association.

AMONG WORST
OF FANCIED AILMENTS
By J O H N
M U M ! the worst of fancied ailments is "blues."
But imaginary diseases ( i i i make
trouble, as well a s real ones.
I have know u t e m p e r a m e n t a l ladies
who had nothing whatever the m a ; t e r
with them to render life miserable to
themselves and their families fot
weeks at a time.
And It is actually possible for people to worry or fret themselves sick.
But for the "blues'" there Is little
excuse.
It ts a trouble of Inferior minds.
It will come on at any time, usually
when there Is no apparent cause for
It, and last for an indefinite period.
Meantime the patient is not worth
much. His work Is bad. His temper
is tricky, and it Is wise to avoid him
and let him get over i t
Give a victim of "blues" something
to think about—something that lie has
simply got to think about, like hustling
for a living, or keeping his Job, arwt he
quickly gets over it.
Coddle him, and sympathize wltb

it Is for most o t h e r mental foolishness.
By Douglas Malloch.
But there has to be a little preach

have no reminder ol their own intirinlties and how to dispose of them.
Among colored people, naturully
happy, there a r e many who not only
get the "blues" but sing about ibem
dolefully.

is kept secret the location
of a "peuk of gold" in the San Juan
mountains until he could find a financial backer whom he would trust to
help him open the treasure vault
locked by nature.
Today Pickens and Judge Jesse C.
Wiley, the honest man whom the prospector found after a search of a quarter of a century, are sharing equally
the fortune Pickens discovered.
WhUe prospecting over the hills
•bout the Little Annie mine In 1D04
Pickens stumbled on a protruding
bowlder. He tapped the rock with his
hammer, A piece broke off, revealing
a layer of almost solid gold. Another
blow dislodged more gold-lined slabs.
• Beneath the surface of that bowlder,
the prospector concluded, lay a peak
of gold. Determining to keep the discovery a secret, Pickens also resolved
to stay near his potential fortune. He
obtained a Job with a small force of
miners at the Little Annie and then
begun his quiet hunt for an honest
man with enough money to exploit the
"strike."
Several times
the owners of the
Little Aunie mine started tunnels toward the golden peak, and Pickens
held his breath. He was greatly relieved as each of these projects was
abandoned, one within eighty feet of
his hidden treasure.
Finally the prospector met the man
whom he could trust. He and Judge
"Wiley formed a partnership, obtained
long-time leases on 40 mining claims,
including the golden peak, and within
six weeks realized $114,000 from the
ore taken off only that part of the
bowlder showing above the grass.
Since then half a million dollars ha*
been hauled away and yellow metaf
worth many times that amount still
is in siglit.
Pickens has a wife and thirteen
children with whom to share the fortune.

ALASKA FARM LIFE
BEGINS NEW PHASE
Bachelor Owner and OneCrop System Pawing.
Seattle, Wash.—Touring southeastern Alaska for an inspection of natural resources, Secretary of Agriculture Jardine will nnd farm life of the
Far North in the midat of a colorful
transition.
The "bachelor farmer," whose pioneer struggles are written into the
agricultural history of every frontier.
is slowly passing from the land be
cleared of timber and is being replaced by men with families. Where
bis shack stood the new farmer Is
building houses and barns and his
one-crop system of farming, is giving
way to diversified activities, including
the production of live stock.
Needing little and obtaining that
principally from the forests, the early
settler lived und^r conditions Impossible for a man with a family. He
planted his wheat or potatoes in the
spring, left during the summer months
to earn a "grubstake" and returned
in the fall to harvest a crop that had
received no attention.
More Dairy
Farms.
Long-required diversified
farming
Is coming in with the families. The
small dairy farm grows more common
and many vegetables are grown. In
the region near Fairbanks the bachelor still predominates, and since the
area is adapted to wheat and potatoes, It may take longer to introduce
diversified systems.
Southeastern Alaska is rough, rugged and covered with timber. Comparatively little land in this region is
available for cultivation. The rich
farms are in the great Tanana valley,
winch, with the Yukon and Susitna
valleys, has the essentials to make it
eventually the granary of Alaska, In
the fertile Mutanuska valley and contiguous territory.
The secretary's plan to visit the
southeastern section was motivated
by his desire to see at close range the
infant forest industry, other natural
resources and the possibilities for
preservation of wild life.

Old Bison Hunt.
77?
• • •
Washington.—Kellcs of a buffalo
hunt held by primitive men near frolsom, N. M.. thousands of yeurs before
white men came to America continue
to puzzle and attract scientists, in
response to a telegram from Kolsom
received by the Smithsonian Institution, reporting new discoveries of
stone arrows points and fossil bison
bones, Sell Jodd, a Smithsonian anthropologist, with other scientists, has
set out for the scene of the excavations to examine the remarkable evidence.
The excavations are being conduct*
ed by the Colorado Museum of Natural History and the American Museum of NaturaJ History.
The stone arrow-heads used In the
hunt have been found close to bones
of bison supposed to have become
extinct In America long before men
appeared on this continent. If the
stone weapons were shot at this living game, as the evidence Indicates,
the conclusion of some scientists is
that men must have Inhabited America at least 'J5.000 years, possibly even
several hundred thousand years. No
evidence has ever been discovered in
this country to show that the types
of bison found with the arrow points
have? lived in America in recent times.
Dr. Oliver P. Hay of the Smithsonian Institution is now engaged la
studying some of the bones of these
extinct bison. The bones found at Foisom belong to bison with flattened
horns different from any living form,
Doctor Hay states.

Bird*
D IltDS seem to have played an 1m*-* portant p a n In the superstitions
of all countries and ages. Because
they were continually on the wing,
they were supposed to observe and
know the most hidden action of men,
and all their secrets. As the old adage runs: "No one knows except perhaps some bird."
Some of the singular superstitions
In regard to birds a r e :
If anyone cut out the tongue of a
goose alive and lay It upon the breast
of a man or woman asleep, they will
confess all their sins.
If a man curry the heart of a male
crow, and his wife the heart of a female, they will agree between themselves all their lifetime.
The eyes and heart of a nightingale
laid about men In bed will keep them
awake. If anyone dissolve them and
Hail clouds drift low and, whenever
one appears o\er his place, Mr. DiClaudio fires a barrage from his shotgun Into it. The cloud, he says, seems
to scatter as a result and he is convinced that he has saved his field
more than once by tins simple expedient.
He keeps his trusty shotgun with a
dozen shells ready for a boi. uardment.

"Save the Surface and You Save All"
Paint lime
Right now. These bright, sunshiny day, I bet you are
saying to yourself—
"I believe 1*11 paint my house and garage."
Or perhaps you are going to redecorate the interior
of your home. Well, paint is what we are thinking
about too. And
Bradley & Vroman Painf
is what we sell
Lei us talk over the paint problems together, so that
we can explain to you the qualities of our brand.
Where ever there is a surface to be painted, stained
or varnished, there is always a Bradltjr & Vroman
paint for that particular surface.

When Borrowed Funds are Idle
It is not uncommon in business to
find borrowed money that draws interest, but earns nothing during part of
loan period. When idle, this money can
be invested in Pinckney State Bank
certificates of deposit where it will
earn four per cent—yet when it is in- I
stantly available at a moment's notice.
These Certificates also may be employed profitably when your payroll is
cut—when purchased are below normal-when inventory is r e d u c e d - w h e i T
your commerical account shows a surplus—when you are holding dividends
for re-mvestment—or whenever you
have any surplus funds or cash reserves that are not earning.

Ii Outspoken for Change
ip Prohibition Laws.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
I T H the courage of his conviction* Gov. Al Smith in bis speech
of a c c e p t a n c e frankly declared his opposition to the E i g h t e e n t h a m e n d m e n t
a n d the Volstead act a s they now exist. This w a s t h e d o m i n a n t note of
h i s address, which w a s delivered ixi
t h e assembly c h a m b e r at Albany bec a u s e of a p e r s i s t e n t rain t h a t prevented the outdoor exercises, Necessarily Smith, like Hoover, declared
t h a t if elected he would honestly und
vigorously enforce the dry laws. He
also repeated his belief that the saloon would not and should not return.
B u t the vital part of this section of
t h e speech was a demand for the modification of the E i g h t e e n t h amendm e n t to permit the sale of alcoholic
b e v e r a g e s by state agencies if approved by popular referendum ; and
for a m e n d m e n t of the Volstead act to
allow each s t a t e to determine Its own
s t a n d a r d of alcoholic content, the
m a x i m u m not to exceed t h a t provided by the amended Eighteenth
a m e n d m e n t Severely scoring the evil
conditions which he said had resulted
from the present dry laws and the
f a i l u r e to enforce them, the c a n d i d a t e
d e c l a r e d : "I raise what t profoundly
believe to be a great moral issue involving the righteousness of our national conduct and the protection of
• u r children's morals."
W
Concerning the farm relief problem
Bmlth went little further than the
H o u s t o n platform on which he stands.
B e promised to t a k e up the m a t t e r
Imm mediately after election, acting on
the advice of experts.
He pledged
himself to the r e s t o r a t i o n of honesty
to government and to scientific tariff
making and declared against "sudden
or d r a s t i c " changes In the economic
i r s t e m which might upset business.
tn other m a t t e r s he followed t h e platform quito closely.
Unbiased and nonpartisan opinion
la that Smith in his address showed
be Is making his chief phiy fur the
E a s t e r n s t a t e s ; t h a t he believes the
Bouth Mill be solid for hihi, and that
his hopes of winning .states in the
Middle West are not excessive. UN
prohibition program is clear enough
a n d is workable, and probably -satisfies all the wets except those who still
Insist
the
Eighteenth
amendment
should be utterly wiped out. No one
supposes It will please the wet Democ r a t s of the South. But it is likely
t h e i r attitude Is fairly expressed by
tive A r k a n s a s Gazette of Little Iiock.
w h i c h says :
" T h e Gazette 1¾ for the present dry
laws, fully and strictly enforced.
It
c a n n o t shift ground an inch toward
compromise with Governor
Smith.
N e v e r t h e l e s s this newspaper can and
will continue to support Governor
Smith for President.
The changes
Governor Smith deems necessary and
expedient would be defeated In congress by dry legislative votes."
i
/ T > V K K N O R SMITH took time last
> - * week to reply to the attack on
bis record in the New York legislat u r e made by William Allen White,
which already had been disowned by
t h e Pepuhllcan publicity chiof. The
governor justified his \otes on liquor
m d social vine matters by explaining
the circumstances, and :hom;!i White
made answer from Paris it was p>nfcrully admitted that Smith had much
the better of the argument.

age.
He is now forty-four.
The

whenever possible to conserve the
fuel supply.

In Ottawa ordered the stocks of the

which point they may, if lucky, be
able to get them into the United

N e w York,—The a v e r a g e married
person, whether or not happily mated,
h a s seven love affairs, according to
r e t u r n s g a t h e r e d from 200 men and

O t h e r conclusions from the survey

Women a r e slightly more tickle than
men.
Must of the a t t a c h m e n t s precede
t h a t which finally 'ends them to the
a l t a r , although being wed does not det e r a large minority from romancing
o u t s i d e t h e home.
T h e s e facts a r e p r e s e n t e d In a re
p o r t of an Investigation into human
r e l a t i o n s h i p by the b u r e a u of social
bygieue of New York City. T h e res e a r c h work, p u r s u e d in -> scientific
spirit, covered four y e a r s . T h e report of the findings h a s been revealed
for the first time.
Wives Seek Solace.
One hundred men uccouuted for 681
love affairs and 1UU women for 677,
but t h r e e of the l a t t e r said they had
n e v e r loved any man. Twenty-nine of
t h e lot) h u s b a n d s let their affections
s t r a y from the family circle and 41
yf t h e wives found solace in the a r m s
of other men.
" T w o hundred men and women
chosen for the research were almost
all college bred or of college grade,"
t h e report says.
" T h e y c a m e from
New York city and its environs. A
third of 'the men were in professional
life, a tenth were engineers, a little
more than u q u a r t e r were in business.
Half of the men had incomes under
$j,UOU a year."
T h e i r ages ranged from twenty, t h r e e to
fifty-nine.
The
majority
weiv between thirty and forty and
hud been married from five to fifteen
yea is.
T h e subjects were considered r e p r e s e n t a t i v e of their class in
uny large city. "They are a widow's
mite id" lacis got under carefully ari'i.ji:g*'d scientific conditions, but a
mite is woiili dropping in an empty
box," the a u t h o r s explain.
Each of fhe -H.MJ men and women
received cards? on which were typewritten questions. T h e r e were more
than
forty cards with nearly 400
questions. The e x a m i n e r s asked that
the questions be talked out in u very
free, in formal m a n n e r .
Une of the
cards invariably wore out sooner than
the others.
It was known as the
"Love Affairs Card." T h e one for the
women asked them to give a list of
all the boys with whom they had been
in love, either before or after their
own marriage, and to give information about their own age, at the time
of the love affair; whether the boy
was older or y o u n g e r ; the color of
his eyes und h a i r ; whether he was
short on tall, thin, pi"3nip or f a t ; it
he resembled the g,iTs father or
brother In disposition and appearance, and the extent of their "spooning."
Gives Fair index.
" T h e 2-HJ men and women provide
QS with a pretty go* d index of rhe
ages at which human beings a r e most
likely to fall in love," s a y s the article.
" T h e men began to show a m a t o r y
e n t h u s i a s m sooner than the women.
Cp to fifteen their average w a s somewhat ahead. T h e women reu«-h Che
peak of their love affairs e a r l i e r than
t h e men. T h e field of greatest activity
r u n s from sixteen to twenty. T h e men
reach t h e peak between twenty-one
a n d twenty-two. After the peak the
men go down more slowly t h a n the
women. T h e r e is a slight rebirth of
love making at about thirty, then ano t h e r sag.
" W i t h the forties comes another
peak In t h e love affairs of the women. Through the thirties the women
show a little more activity than the
men, and in rhe next decade they definitely o u t d i s t a n c e them. T h e women
s h o w no Interest in younger men until
t h e thirties. One man ran up a total
of 27 love affairs, against one unhappy
marriage.
" T h e women had more affairs that
ended because they fell in love with
somebody else, because of family interference, because of the death of
the loved one, or because one or both
of the lovers were already married.
T h e love affairs of the men t e r m i n a t e d
because of separation, dissatisfaction
with the women, and a feeling of inferiority."

French Students Drop
German for English
Paris.—German is steadily losing its
place in the schools of France.
More than half the pupils in the
lycees, or high, schools, took German
before the war.
Now only three in
ten choose it as the one modern language that is obligatory in the lycees
and colleges.
Knglish has grown in favor because
it is reputed to he easier than German
and because it lias acquired greater
prestige. Nearly four in ten choose it.
T h e diminishing interest in German
is regretted by leaders of many sorts.
Military men strongly favor German
because it is the language of F r a n c e ' s
formidable neighbor.
AH Melons in Hawaii
Wear Fancy Nightcaps
Honolulu.—Even Huckleberry Finn
wouldn't have recognized a watermelon patch in Hawaii.
T h e melons, enjoyed nearly the year
around here, are raised chiefly by
J a p a n e s e . To protect them from the
Mediterranean fruit fly, which, having
laid its eggs, becomes a g r a n d m o t h e r
many times over in almost u single
night, the farmers keep the melons
tied in paper sacks.
Marked with the fantastic charact e r s that give the date and directions
for picking, the melons resemble a
field of J a p a n e s e lanterns.

New York.—Richard
Milton

pastor, Charles F r a n c i s P a t t e r ,
( ' t u r n e d of his own accord to

bis father should h a v e been so
a l a r m e d over his a b s e n c e .
T h e young man related a series of a d v e n t u r e s of hitch hiking a n d working his way hi»>ie
from t h e Adirondack c a m p af
bis family to t h e winter residence. He said h e worked on
farms and bad o u t l a s t e d two

With pride
he told of leaving the c a m p with
only a small amount of c h a n g e

$10 and bis board a n d lodging.
Richard explained t h a t rhe
effeminacy of c a m p life was too
m u r h for him. besides " t h e women would talk their h e a d s off."
Dedicate Home in Sea
to Fishermen's Pastor
S t a r Island, Maine.—Ten miles out
to sea there was an
impressive
s c e n e when the Tuck p a r s o n a g e w a s
formally dedicated.
Prominent Unit a r i a n clergymen w e r e among t h o s e
in a t t e n d a n c e .
T h e Tuck house is constructed of
island stone in style h a r m o n i o u s w i t h
t h e old stone meeting house of Gosport, which is 128 y e a r s old.
The
building is in memory of J o h n Tuck,
who years ago ministered to the fisher
folk. He dwelt in one of the former
buildings on the site, and his r e m a i n s
rest only a few feet a w a y , surrounded!
by an impressive g r a n i t e obelisk.
Curiously enough, in this spot fine
sand is washed up by the tides from
no one knows where, for the Isres of
Shoals belie their n a m e and are a
m a s s of rocks pushed up out of the
sea. When the sand supply i- cleaned
out of this pocket, t h e tide ln a few
d a v s renews it again.
Sparrows, Songbirds,
Increase in Midwest
Washington.—The feeling thar Knglish s p a r r o w s are disappearing
in
this country is without justification,
according to the t'nited Stales bureau
of biological s u n e y . While there h a s
been u decrease of these birds in t h e
last few years, so that lliev are no
longer the pest they were forty o r
fifty years after their first Importation, n a t u r e seems to be setting a balance in regard to them, In the West
and Middle West they a r e si ill apparently on the increase.
American songbirds are in no danger of extinction, like their relatives
among the game birds. For the most
p a r t they are not in a precarious position, officials of the bureau report.
The Weaker Sex?

Another notable who died last week
was Viscount H a l d a n e of Cloan who,
as s e c r e t a r y of state for war, created
Great Britain's territorial army and
t h u s contributed largely to the success
of the allies ln the World war. He
was driven from office by popular outcry because he reiterated his love for
German scholars-hip, though there was
no question of his loyalty.

Near British Museum.
in
London. —After
lying
neglected
f<pf years, covered vsitli dust, in the
attic of an old London boarding hou^c
in the neighborhood of the Briri-h
museum, a hitherto unknown letter of
Cienrge- Washington has been discovered here.
Yellow with age arid worn almost
(trough at the creases, the strong
inndwriting of the first American
.'resident and his famous signature
ire still clearly decipherable.
Addressed
to Major
Ewan
nnd
dated Georgetown. OcL 4, 17bl. the
letter r e n d s :
" S i r : W'th a mixture of great surprise and astonishment I have read
with attention the sentiment? you
n n \ e submited to my perusal.
"Be assured. Sir, no occasion in the
course of this war has given me more
painful sensation than your information of there being such ideas existing
in the army as you have expressed
and which I may view with abhor
rence and reprehend with s e v e r i t y For the present the communication of
them will rt st in my own bosom unless some further agitation of the
m a t t e r sdmll make a disclosure.
1
am much at loss to conceive what
part of my conduct could have given
encouragement to an address which
to me seems big with the greatest
mischief that can befall my country.
If 1 am not deceived in the knowledge of myself you could not have
found a person to whom your schemes
i're more disagreeable.
"At the same time in justice to my
own feelings I must add that no man
pns-'espes n more serious wish to see
ample jnsticp done to the a r m y than
I d o ; and as far as my power and in-
fluence in a constitutional way extern*
they shall be employed to the utmos*
of my ability to effect it. Should therp
be any occasion let me conjure you
then, if you have nny regard for your
country, concern for yourself, or respect for me. to hanisri theve thought*
from your mind, and never communicate as from yourself or any one else
a sentiment of the like nature.
"I have acquainted Gen. Braddock
with flip cist of your letter. Yrs-. in
sorrow. G. Washington."
T h e letter is going to America.
where it will he placed on exhibition
temporarily at various museums of
history.
It will probably be offered
for sale later, either to the government, historical societies, or private
individuals.
