Transcript.HE SAW SNOWMAN Englishman Corroborates Story Told by Explorers.Probability That There Is @ Mysterious Race That Has Not Been Reached by Civilization, Wiltinm Mugh Knight, a member of the British Royal Socleties club, recently recalled to a representative of the London Times an occasion some years ago when he was able to Inspect closely a figure which he believes to be that of one of the \u201cAbominable Snowmen\u201d to who reference has been made by members of the Mount Everest expedition.He sald: \u201cShortly before the lust Tibetan war I was returning from Tibet with another European, a Tibetan gulde, and our traln of about forty or fifty coolles, We were coming down the track which leads from Guaton to Sedonchen.We wanted to go to Gantok by the higher track, but Tenzin Wagdl, our gulde, sald the coolies would not face the leeches, so we had to take the lower track, which roughly follows the river, As we got near Gantok we had to climb the long ascent.My companion had gone on ahead with the coolles.I was about half a mile behind, about half a nile below Gantok.\u201cI stopped to breathe my horse, on an open clearing, and dismounted, loosened the glirths and watched the sun, which was just about setting.While I was musing I heard a slight sound and, looking round, I saw, some fifteen or twenty paces away, a flgure which I now suppose must have been one of the halry men that the Everest expedition talk about and the Tibetans, according to them, call the \u2018Abominable Snowmen.\u2019 .\u201cSpeaking to the best of my recollection, he was a little under six feet high, almost stark nuked in that bitter cold\u2014It was the month of November.He was a kind of pale yellow all over, about the color of a Chinaman, a shock of matted hair on his head, little hair on his face, highly splayed feet, and large, formidable hands.His muscular development in the arms, thighs, legs, back and chest was terrific.He had in his hand what seemed to be some form of primitive bow.He did not sce me, but stood there, und I watched him for some five or six minutes.So far us I could make out, hie was watch: ing some man or beast fur down the hillside.At the end of some five minutes he started off \u2018+ a run down the hill, and 1 was impr ssed with the tremendous speed ut which he traveled.\u201cSo fur ns I can remember, I mentioned the matter In the Gurkha mess that night, and to Cluude White when EI saw him at the residence next morn- Ing, but my recoliection ls that they took it rather as a matter of course, The Incident more or less passed out of my mind until I read about the tracks in the snow written of by members of the Mouuté@iverest expedition.\u201d ° Novelty In Postage.When the Austrullun soldiers were on their way to the great war, they flung hundreds of bottles overboard with messages and many of these were cast up on the beaches.The pussengers on the Cunard lner Port Pirle, which has Just run from London to Melbourne by way of South Africa In 30 days, tricd a new way of communicating with thelr friends In Great Britain.When 20 miles off Las Palmas, they launched a raft, upou which was a tin containing 40 letters and 43 shillings to cover the cost of pustage, together with a request In Spanish and English that the finder should post the letters by the first avallable mall, A flagstaff carrying a Union Jack had been erected on the raft and In the carly morning the passengers watched the departure of thelr novel mail delivery.UNITED STATES FOSTAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK IS OBSERVED May 1 Sees Inaugurated First General Campaign of Kind in Service.Without the Postal Service, business would languish in a day, and be at a standstill in a week.Public opinion would dle of dry rot.Sectlonal hatred or prejudice only would flourish, and narrow-mindedness thrive.It is the biggest distinctive business in the world and it comes nearer to the Innermost Interests of a greater number of men and women than any other institution on earth.No private busl- ness, however widespread, touches so many lives so often or sharply; no church reaches Into so many souls, flutters so many pulses, has so many human beings dependent on its min- Istrations.\u201cPostal Improvement Week\u201d has been set for May 1, by the Postmaster General.This Is the first general campaign of its kind in the Postal Service for several decades.Business men and thelr organizations, large users of the mall, newspapers, motion plctures, advertisers, and the entire organlza- tion of 726,000 postal workers are to be enlisted in this country-wide campalgn of Interest In postal Improvements.Your help is vital.Address your letters plainly with pen or typewriter.Give street address.Spell out name of State, don't abbreviate.Put your return address in the upper loft hand corner of envelope (not on the back) and always look at your letter before dropping In the mail to see if it Is properly addressed.This care in the use of the mails is for your benefit and speeds up the dispatch and delivery of mail matter.If you have any complaints of poor service make them to your postmaster, He has instructions to investigate them and report to the department.COURTESY It sticks in human relations like postage stamps on letters.\u2018The POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT expects it to be used by its postmasters and employees in dealing with the public.Help them in its use beginning ! with POSTAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK, May 1 6, 1922.THANK YOU WITHOUT STREET ADDRESS YOUR MAIL IS DELAYED AT OFFICE OF DELIVERY existence ever since Ben Franklin started our postal service.Even then people addressed mall to Mr.Ezeklel Smithers, \u201cAtlantic Coast,\u201d and expected Ben to know just where Zeke lived.Perhaps they had Zeke's address In letters up in the garret, maybe a chest full of 'em, but then It was easler to let Ben hunt Zeke.Today people are addressing letters to John Smith, New York, N.Y., or Chicago, Ill, thinking Uncle Sam can locate him, which is Just as incomplete as was Zeke's address of yore.The Postoffice Depart- ment- asks you tg put the number and street in the address.It helps you.ninitak GL.Liquor Commission Special Notice to Possible Buyers of Permits for the Sale of Beer and Wine We beg to again call the attention of the public in general and of possible purchasers of Permits for the sale of Beer and Wine.to the fact that these permits are granted as a personal privilege only to certain persons who alone have the right to nel! same.These permits cannot therefore be sold or transferred, except in case of death of the holder of said permit, but, then only after formal permission to do so has been obtained from the Commission.Those who purchase Hotels, Taverns, Restaurants o: Grocery Stores do not have the right to continue the sale of Beer or Wine in pursuance of the permit granted to the vendor, and should these purchasers take actual possession of the said establishments, unless they entirely abstain from selling Beer or Wine, they do so at their risk and peril.The Law punishes severely those who sell alcoholic liquors without having a permit ; and the fact of Euving an establishment because it is in operation, will not shield the buyer from the penalties of the Law.Any permit holder can sell his establishment, but he must immediately return his certificate to the Commission and the purchaser must make his application for a permit, which shall be duly taken into consideration and judged on its merits.As above stated, the Law is definite on this point, and those interested by conforming strictly to it, will avoid trouble and possible material losses by the penalties exacted by the Law.Quebec Liquor Commission How do you expect the Postal Clerk to know whether you mean Trinidad, California, or Trinidad, Colorado?ALWAYS SPELL OUT THE NAME OF THE STATE IN FULL IN TIIE ADDRESS.\u201cMORE BUSINESS IN GOVERNMENT\u201d This apt phrase was used in President

Pr TURKEY HEN IS BEST MOTHER She Knows Wants of Poults and Can Talk to Them In Language They Soon Learn.(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) For poults the turkey hen is the best mother that can be found.She knows their needs and can talk to them in a language they soon learn to understand.At the approach of any danger she gives a low, warning note that sends them scurrying ln every direction for a weed or patch of green grass where then can lie flat on the ground safely hidden from view.While on free range, she keeps her brood together by talking continuously in a contented, purring tone, so that the poults always know where she is.When her poults become widely separated, or If some become lost, and she hears their \u201cpeep, peep,\u201d she calls them with the characteristic yelp heard so frequently during the laying geason.Now and then, while the poults are but a few days old, she catches a grasshopper or other Insect and calls the poults to come aml get it.They soon learn to find their own feed, however, and range out ahead of the mother hen In search of what ever they can find.Young turkeys usually remain with the mother hen until about October or November, when the males ordinarily separate from the females and range by themselves, When two turkey hens with broods of about the same age are turned out on free range together they will remain in one flock, and as this makes It easler to hunt them up The Turkey Hen Takes Good Care of Her Young.and care for them, it is advisable to turn \u2018out \u2018two or, three hens with thelr broods together when they are given free range.It ls not n good plan to have more than this number of young poults in one flock, say poultry speclalists In the United States Department of Agriculture, as they may all try to crowd under one or two hens to be hovered.GOSLINGS READY TO MARKET Advisable to Avoid Use of Young Stock in Raising Fowls\u2014Old Birds Are Preferred.Geese are birds of long life, sometimes living fifteen to twenty years, and ganders are at thelr best at three, four or five years, The use of im- matured young stock should be avolded, especlally for the renewal of breeding geese, but for the produr- tion of early goslings for market, it Is often the custom among breeders to use eggs from young geese, as these usually begin to lay earlier than older birds.Such a practice is perfectly proper, but for breeding stock, experienced breeders prefer older or well matured geese and ganders.BIG IMPORTANCE OF ROOSTER Impossible to Get Best Results Without Uee of Good Male\u2014is Half the Fiock.The male is half the flock.Without a good male it is impossible to get good results.It Is more dangerous, however, to use a poor male than It is a poor female, for the reason that from one male bird a greater number.of chicks carrying his blood will be hatched than where a poor female is allowed to remain in the flock, MALES FOR BREEDING STOCK Not Advisable to Wait Until Minute to Select Fowls to Head Poultry Flock.Don\u2019t wait until the last minute to buy males for your poultry breeding pens.If you do, the best will be gone and you'll have to take what's left.A breeder sells by process of elimination, disposing of the best first.So, the earller you buy, the better will be the stock you get.LEGS ARE QUITE IMPORTANT Not Only Necessary as Means of Locomotion, but They Help Appearance of Fowls.The legs of fowls are important not only- as a means of locomotion, but also in regard to the appearance of the fowls.Therefore, the legs deserve proper care and attention from every poultry raiser.Last OF ANCIENT DAYS Much Is Told in Collection of Old Documents.Lega! Papers Recovered by investigators Reveal Life of People During Early Christian Era.What is described as one of the most important collections of ancient documents yet discovered, consisting of more than 100 legal papers dating from the reigns of the Roman emperors Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula and Claudius, has been brought to Ann Arbor Ly Prof.Francis W.Kelsey of the University of Michigan.Professor Kelsey spent some time in Egypt In search of records.The collection is held to be important because it reveals the life of people during the early Christian era.The Yecords obtulned by Professor Kelsey constitute a part of the files of a record office in or near Tebtunis, Egypt, and were discovered four months ago.They are written on papyrus and are chiefly in Greek, a few being Demotic.They are belleved to have been covered with sand soon after the record office fell and with few exceptions are preserved perfectly, .The earliest record is dated 7 A, D.and bears the signature of a woman who agreed not to bring claim against her brothers.Another record, of the same period, is a contract of common law marriage.Among other records are contracts of sale covering both personal and real property, Including lands, vineyards and houses.There also are leases, agreements regarding loans, a contract of indemnity, receipts for wages, 4 receipt for dowry, official orders, petitions to public officials, tax receipts, documents relating to transferring ownership of slaves and part of a registry of deeds.What is held to be the most limpor- tant record is in the form of a roll, more than seven feet long und written on both sides.It is sald to be a perfect example of an ancient book or scroll of the kind mentioned in the Bible, particularly in the Book of Revelations.= The scroll, dated 42 A.D., contalns on one side abstracts of a number of contracts and on the other is a regls- try of the contracts, written in the record office of the second year of Emperor Claudius.Between ten and fifteen years will be required to decipher all of the records and to explain them in thelr relation to Roman history, according to Professor Kelsey.The university professor asserted there could be no question as to the authenticity of the records.Another collection brought to the university by the professor includes a papyrus book of twelve leaves, In which are written the incantations and formulas used by a master magician.There are charms and curses for various occasions, one being a love charm.In the pruyers God and the angels are invoked as well as the pagan deities of Egypt.\u201cSurvival of the Fittest.\u201d Samuel Eliot Morison, author of \u201cPhe Maritime History of Massachusetts,\u201d comes of New England seafaring stock, about which many deep-sea tales might be told.According to a family tradition, two of Mr.Morison's ancestors were shipmates on a brigantine which was wrecked in the Pacific ocean toward the end of the Eighteenth century.The crew had to row almost a thousand miles in a small boat hefore they reached land, with the usual accompaniment of drawing lots to see who would furnish the meals.One of Mr.Morison\u2019s ancestors perished; the other survived, and on reaching home two years later found that his daughter had married the victim's son.The two families remalned on the best of terms, but It was considered poor form to refer to the \u201csurvival of the fittest\u201d In the family circle.Mr Morison did not tell this Incident In his \u201cMaritime History,\u201d as he did not expect anyone to believe It.Oif Cans Used as Stoves.The divers use to which empty kerosene cans are put are well known, and even in the most remote parts of the world these tin containers are in great demand because of the many different forms into which they many be made for further service, says the Kansas City Star.The five-gallon size, it appears, is the most favorable, because it can be worked by the average handy man with the crudest of tools.Along the great waterways of Interior Alaska drums are often found doing duty as stoves, but it Is seldom it is found utilized lke this elsewhere.Travelers who have toasted their shins In front of this stove In the \u201cGolden North\u201d hotel at Skagway, southeastern Alaska, pronounce It a marvelous generator of heat and a noteworthy example of recreative work.Custom Many Centuries Old.The ancient ceremony of collecting wroth silver at daybreak on Martin- mas eve due to the duke of Buccleuth as Lord of the Hundred was observed at Knightlow Hill, near Coventry, England.The custom has endured for more than 1,000 years, and 24 par- 1shes pay the nominal tax which originated In certain privileges granted to the ancient residents.Before sunrise people went to the spot to pay their toll, and afterward they were entertained at breakfast.THE NEW SPRING TAILLEUR History repeats itseit vi uns spring tailleur.It is of gray tricotine, braid- od with silk of the same tone\u2014the feature being the bell-shaped sleever so popular this season.CREPES FOR KIDDIES\u2019 WEAR Fabric ls Seen in Party Dresses as Well as Simple Daytime Frocks With Smocking.Crepe de chine is Increasing in popularity as a fabric for children's dresses, and 1s seen in treatinents that vary from the elaborate party dress with Spanish lace to the simple daytime frock with smocking.These smocked crepe de chines for very Iit- tle tots have been on the market for some time, and now they are coming in for the much larger child.The transition from this smocked style to the Mother Hubbard is a very easy one, and the two types are both included in a group which is developed in pastel shades and in white with colored stitching.Party dresses are, of course, the order of the day during these weeks, and the littlest girl may find frocks just as elaborate as her older sister, if she does not favor the simple styles that are designed for her.Her frock will probably be sleeveless, and if it follows the mode of many that have heen observed recently, It will have apenwork at the shoulder seams, (\u2018oats are shown in bright colors and In such dressy fabrics as panne velvet, trimmed with fur.A smartly dressed little girl of four was seen in red from the top of her round hat to her crimson leggings and little kid shoes.Another girl, of twelve or fourteen, was wearing a three-quarter length coat of green velvet in un- belted flaring style, fastened at the neck with little round steel buttons, USE FOR THE SILK SCRAPS Remnants May Be Worked Into New Crazy Quilt; Old Cover May Be Utilized.Most of us have bureau drawers full of gayly colored silk scraps that we hate to throw away, but that are hardly large enough for real use.Why not make a crazy quilt?The old- fashioned ones are complicated In design, but a most effective result Is obtained by merely using square blocks of color, with occasionally two scraps sewed together for stripes.These blocks should be about five inches in diameter.Easter than making a separate cover and then lining it, is to take an old quilt and merely featherstitch the patches in heavy black silk right onto the quilt.Use plain black for the reverse side and add a black border of the same width us the block of color.THE SIMPLE COIFFURE MODE \u2014_\u2014 Broad Waves Undulate Away From Face and Are Drawn Low, With Fullness Over Ears.Hairdressing modes of the moment continue to keep in favor simple lines which successfully avoid severity.Broad waves undulate away from the face, and are drawn rather low, with a slight fullness over the ears.The hair is arranged elther quite high on the head or at the nape of the neck\u2014the halfway position be- Ing avoided as a rule\u2014In a compact roll or elongated twist, which 1s given the support of a decorative comb, a small one for daytime wear, and an exaggeentediy large one for evening and \u201cdressy\u201d purposes.This 1s a style suitable to the young and middle- aged alike, provided the features are not pronounced and the face itself Is not too thin.Washing Blankets.When blankets are belng washed, remember that the rinsing water must he soapy in order to make them Hght and fluffy.Another point is that all the waters In which the hlankets are washed should be of the same temperature.VARYING IDEAS GF BEAUTY American \u201cPeaches,\u201d Says Wanderer Would Look Like \u201cLemons\u201d to the Native of Mongolia, The Wanderer und the Young Ameri- cau were smoking thelr cigarettes in the congenial silence that in wen is à sign of good friendship.They ulbled for u few blocks without speuking, until the sight of a girl crossing the street tuwurd them brought a gasp of admiration from the Young American.\u201cGosh, look at the pippin! Say, isn't she a little beauty?\u201d The Wanderer guve another puff und then replied: \u201cWell, maybe she is und maybe she isn't: \u201cWhat do you mean Ly maybe she isn't?A blind wan could see that she's a beauty, What's the matter with your sight?\u201d the Young American de- wanded, Aguiu the Wanderer puffed before he answered, \u201cWell, 1 didn't say she wasn't, But I've seen so many different notions of beauty that I'm beginning to wonder if there Is such a thing ut all.Fur iu- stance, look at her hair, all puffed out at the sides und fluffy round ler face, According to American deus that's pretty.But a Mongolian man or woman would think it perfectly hideous.They think that beauty lles in skinning a woman's hair back just as tight as she can, screwing it into à little tight knot or cutting it off altogether und covering the top of her head with an elaborate edifice of finery, sort of a showcuse fur her jewelry.You can pretty nearly judge her position by the number of trinkets she hus piled on, \u201cIn other parts of Mongolia the women hang cloth curtains over their ears because they think that beauty forbids allowing their ears to be seen naked, WIth them, eurs are strictly taboo.On the other hand, the uatives of some of the South seas islands try to make thelr ears as large and con- spicivus as they can, and the nearer thelr ear lobes come to touching their shoulders the more benutiful they think they are, They even hang heavy weights on their children\u2019s eurs to try to stretch them.\u201cSume way with clothes.If you were to tell a Nepalese woman that you think that girl has on a gouod- looking suit she'd probably exclaim in genuine astonishment, *What, that awful lovking thing! Why, it's perfectly flat In front\u2018 Her idea of a good- looking sult 1s a little short, tight Jacket, and a skirt skin tight in the back, with yards and yards of cloth made into a big bunch in the front.The bigger the bunch, the more stylish the sult.Which idea is right?\u201cNo doubt, too, you think that girl has pretty legs.So do I.Curves and ull that.But in one of the African tribes the mothers fasten stralght metal bands on their little girls\u2019 legs und leave them on until they are grown up.With maternal foresight they want them to have beautiful legs, so straight and thin, just like this stick.\u201cAnd, after all, who's to decide what beauty Is?\u201d \u2014 Why Are We White?The reason why Caucasians are white Is very simple us explained by one of the gravest German savants.Qriginally all men were black, be- caused they lived on roots and fruits.When they got dispersed more widely, altered conditions very soon modified the color of their skins.In this way the negroes in America turned into red Indians, hecnuse they used bloody meat, which supplied them with a superabundance of hemogoblin, the coloring matter of the blood.The Chinese, the Japanese and the Mongollans are yellow because thelr uncestors made a misuse of milk, which contains chlor, whose dissolving force is well known, Now, why ure we white?usks Le Petit Journal of Paris.Solely because we eat too much sult, which, as a dissolvant even surpasses chlor, that turns Asiatics yellow, The day we shall cease to salt our food we shall become black again and have flat noses, Distilling Rare Metals, Among the most interesting experiments made with the electric furnace are those reported by M.Moissan, the French chemist.It appears that, with a current of 500 amperes at 110 volts\u2019 pressure, he in a few minutes distilled from 20 to 50 grams of platinum.The chutlition of the metal took place as quietly as that of water at Its bholling point.The metallic drops were collected on a copper tube traversed by a current of cold water.They depos- {ted themselves in the form of eublc crystals and brilliant crystalline sheets.Moissan has, it seems, also distilled the rare metals osmium, ruthenium, palladium, iridium and rhodium, Seed.Cullfornia Is producing 8,600,000 boxes of navel oranges a year.Yet this whole orange industry is said to linve sprung from one little slip

Cummings describes this steamer which has several decks, and eight times around the boat ie one mile.The boat has an elevator and wireless equipment.À paper is printed every morning.After leaving Miss Cummings received the following message from a friend: \u201cGod bless you, and a good voyage.\u201d To call to n.eals a bugler runs a scale on the bugle.Games, races, lectures, and Sunday services help to pases the time.Mies Comminge visited Fun- chal, Madeira, Cadiz, Seville, Algiers, Africa, and Athens, Greece.At Madeira passengers took a railway up the mountain and came down on a sledge\u2014a seat like a wagon, with runners with a guide to Lold back and act as a brake.They also have sledges drawn by oxen.Very few carriages or automobiles there.At Oudiz, Spain, the sea was very rough and in landing and returning, the people were put in a basket from the boat to the tender.At Seville, Spain, were seen beautiful paintings, and an old cathedral in which Christopher Co- lambus and his son are buried.The fortress of Gibraltar was wonderful\u2014 with tunnels and look-out seats, with lovely views of the country.The highest part ie 1396 feet; the tunnels are dark and damp.Algiers is a beautiful city, built on a hill.The party drove three hours about the city, vie- ited the museum and other places of interest.In one part is an Arab town, very dirty and with streets so narrow one could touch the houses on both sides.The women wear red turbans or bags on their heads.At Copstanti- nople queer people of many kinds, were found.The party visited the mosque of 8t.Sophia, where the Turks worsbip Mohammed.Each Turk has a small carpet upon which to kneel while praying\u2014and as many wives : 8 he wishes.The cistern built by a king over one thousand years ago, was visited.He had a palace over it, aud a water supply in times of war.The stores are called bazaars and goods are sold in stalls, with rough stone floors, which once were stables of King Constantine.While in the Black Sea the captain invited Miss Cummings and another young lady to bis cabin and showed them maps, etc.As a rule none were allowed to see these, but Miss Cummings being a Canadian and the captain an Englishman, sailing under the British flag, while all other passengers were of other nationality, doubtless accounts for the privilege accorded the Coaticook lady.Jerusalem was the next stop in prospect.TOMIFOBIA Miss Opal Laraway of Oliver was a recent guest of Mrs.E.J.Getty.Mrs.W.Bachelder of Rock Island visited ber daughter, Mrs.R, W.Allen, a few days recently.Little
