Roth- Early Chinaware Popular With Lover* of Antique The great reputation which old English china gained for itself in Europe and America in the late Eighteenth and early Nineteenth centuries is due largely to the charm of its useful wares. By useful wares we mean the services of china made for table use, states Alice R. Rollins in the Los Angeles Times. Entire services, with all the pieces decorated to match, were not common until well after the middle of the Eighteenth century. Many of the factories producing them have long since passed out of existence. Such examples as have survived add pleasure or regret to the collector, according to his ability to cla&gffy or obtain them. 1 ' Other services were the productions of famous potters Whose names have been associated with them byimbson of some special form of decoration which is unique. This, together with an original limited production, has made them rare and desired by those collectors who like something out of the ordinary. In this connection we mention the unusual "Mocha" ware, first produced by the English potter, William Adams of Tunstall, One of the best-known names among English potters is that of Adams. The family had long been, engaged in the potting industry and had made many notable improvements in the manufacture of such wares. William Adams (1745-1805) was considered the most important member of this talented family. He was a close friend of Josiah Wedgwood and worked for him as pupil and associate. He began potting for himself about 1787 at Greengates, in Tunstall. ULYLAM* TO! DESTROYS BAKH > ON (HORSE OK1TUNO FARM AT JOHKSBU1MJ Married June 24th Baby Otter, Badger and Other Animals Like Play Most playful of all wild creatures are otters, for even when full grown they cannot resist anything in the shape of a ball that floats. Baby badgers romp together, puffing out their fur until they look like black and white balls, then bouncing round and round on their short stiffened legs. A favorite game is for one to mount a fallen tree, and its companions to try to pull it down, relates Oliver G. Pike, F. Z. S., in London Tit-Bits Magazine.

Badgers, polecats, stoats, and weasels have very little method in their play, unlike the organized games of the otter. I doubt if anyone has ever detected play among fish, or seen lizards or snakes indulging in games. All these are cold blooded and are only active when the temperature is warm enough to give them an interest in life. The play of foxes will often turn to tragedy so far as the farmer is concerned, for if they get among fowls they wijl kill one for food then, like puppies, chase everything that moves. If the birds had the sense to keep still the fox might pass them by, but he will slaughter them by the dozen while they continue to run. Garden of Eden On the supposition that the Garden of Eden narrative in Genesis describes a real country, any number of efforts have been made to establish its location, and many books have been written on the subject, often widely disagreeing. Some have located Eden near the town of Kornah, in southern Babylonia, not far from the Persian gulf. This is at the junction of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, in what is now the British mandatory kingdom of Iraq. Others have placed the Garden in Armenia, near the sources of these rivers. The region near Damascus, in Syria, has also been suggested; and some extremists have argued that it was in America, or Australia, or at the North Pole. The general opinion is that the description in the second chapter of Genesis refers to southern Babylonia. The happy couple above, Mr. and Mrs. William Johns, was married Saturday afternoon, June 24, in the rectory of St. Mary's church, Elgin, wit!llArl°ne Warner.

The popular belief that swimming is easier in deep water is incorrect, though perhaps the mental effect has some influence. A person swimming in shallow water knows that on the least fatigue he may stop swimming and stand on the bottom; in deep water he knows he cannot do this but must exert himself to swim well and under these circumstances it may seem easier to him.
