Here General Stirling, August 27, 177ft, with less than 60U men, held back 20.000 British and charged them five separate times, presenting the British from closing the Iron ring, so that tise Americans might escape across the marshes to the refuge of th« inner line: of fortifications on Brooklyn Heights. ^rd. If the present generation does not know it, Washington's officers realised ^ lo the fall the mighty deeds performed] :•. _• by General Stirling and his Maryland-^ : v' ers that day and called General Stirling "as brave a man as ever lived." Near 148th Anniversary. Wow the first step has been taksa to clear the ground for a memorial park in which shall rise dignified cotems which shall stand forever s reminder of the valorous deeds performed there on that day. It Is an appropriate time for action, for in another year one hundred and forty-eight years will have passed since the Marylanders stood against the best troops Europe ever sent to these shores and fought them to a standstill, although outnumbered twenty to one. ' And while they held them at Nicholas Vechte's old stone house the shattered remnants of the Continentals escaped across the marsh lines In the very nick of time. The stones of that house, which possessed the added distinction of being Washington's headquarters before the battle, are still burled under the ground, historians say. and the house and covered when the iaag filled in. All these years Brooklyn has marked the spot. Maryland has, however, a bronze tablet which bean testimony to the heroisms of the *""» of Maryland.

Hoeard Verbeck ot Los Angeles, after having been cut in two, was moved more than a mile, from one boulevard to another, while a party of notables, including tbe mayor, society leaders, movie stars and artists made merry. Heath, department of soology, Stafford university, California, state that this is physically Impossible. Profeasor Heath describes the octopus as being "of a shy and retiring disposition." "The devilfish has no bonee or ne structure of any kind," says Mr. FloreQ'- ®- "It cannot swim, but can only float on the water, or propel Itself oa the floor of the ocean by meaoa of • tening its suckers on a rock and poll. Ing Itself along. Dont Frighten Fishermen. "Each of the eight tentacles Is eOfered with cup-shaped suckers, end these form a vacuum when fastened on an object. Fishermen haul them out of the traps with their bare hands and throw them in boxes In a manner that Is extremely undignified to a fish that has an age-old fictional reputation of being a man killer and beet smasher." In the picturesque food shops that line the narrow streets of San Francisco's colorful Chinatown, the tentacles of the devilfish may be seen hanging from hooks alongside many Other edibles that are strange to the native American. On the floors of the wholesale fish houses here the devilfish may be seen stacked In jellylike heaps, with tentacles, lb some cases, extending ten feet across, five feet from each side of the small, egg-shaped head. The traps st Santa Crux, where tbe majority of the devilfish are caught on the Pacific coast, are buiit like fly traps, only much larger. The traps are made of wire, with a cone-shaped entrance for the octopus to 6(|u*exe through In order to reach the Knit. Changes Color in Moment. Ibstead of being a fighter, the devilfish protects Itself from attack by changing Its color and hiding from Its enemy, according to Professor Heath. He 8nys: "To agility and naturally acme senses should he added their surprising- ability to change their color-to harmonise with that of their surroundings. so that prey and enemies alike are usually unaware of their proximity. This color change Is hnsed upon minute elastic sacs filled with pigment and Supplied with muscles for causing their expansion. "As a devilfish crawls about on the sea bottom Its color can be seen to change In a twinkling from deep chocolate through dull red and to gruy. If sand or rock Is encountered on the journey the skin Is usually thrown Into lumps and. ridges, so that under all conditions tbe body Is practically Invisible." Cleveland Man Finds $2,000 Roll : ;"4nd l« Wlffing to Do VJ ^ Other Odd Jobs. - Cleveland.--When Mend wife told a J. Cleeaattle there was a leak in the roof, he went oat to look for a carpenter. But carpenters were not to be had, and the first day went by with the rool still leaking. M. Cleesattle kept on looking foi several days, but no carpenters wer« available. Finally Mrs. Cleesattle mustered the nerve to ask him to repair the roof. With the accustomed groan of husbands, he got a ladder, mounted to the roof, tore off several shingles, peered Into the Interior of the house, and between two rafters saw a bundle, tied with a cord. Mr. Cleesattle undid the package. His eyes almost poped out of his head when a $50 bill was disclosed to view. Inside the hill were others. The total •sum was about $2,000. He almost fell off the roof In bis hurry to get the money to the bank. He had bought the home a few years ago. It Is more than ISO years old. An owner In the past had concealed the money and probably died without revealing the hiding place. Now Mr. Cleesattle declares firmly that whenever there are any jobs to do around the house, he is the man who will do them. "Bad Man" Shoots Two Girls and Kills Self Louisville, Ky.--William Zlnsmelster, regarded as a desperate character, created havoc among nearly half a hundred persons enjoying themselves at a picnic given by a church club on tbe banks of the Ohio river by killing his daughter, fifteen; a girl companion, sixteen, and wounding another girl and two youths. A few minutes later, on the'point of being captured, he shot himself to death. Miss Sara Connelly was shot while near the river bank. She fell Into the water and her body floated off down stream. Armed with two revolvers and about 90 rounds of ammunition, Zlnsmelster left his soft drink stand here and was driven to the scene of the picnic In a taxlcab. After only a few words with his daughter he began shooting. He fired 18 shots at the young people. Zlnsmelster, whose brother Is serving a life term for murder, before leaving for the river, told his stepson-ln-law, C. A. Luckert, "I am going to klU five kids this afternoon." Zlnsmelster's wife was burned death several years ago. Modem Term "Volume* Hae . Found to Have Its Origin In These Cylindrical Workl. In forming* papyrus Into books It was customary among the ancients to use a long sheet or web of it, and roll it upon a stick, as Is the custom in respect to maps at the present day, says the Detroit News. *' The writing was In columns, each of which formed a sort of page, the reader holding the ends of the roll In his two hands and reading at the pert which was open between them. As he advanced he continually unrolled on one side and rolled up on the other. The term "volume," need In respect to modern books, had Its origin In this ancient practice of writing upon long rolls. The long sheet was rolled upon a wooden billet, which gave the volume a certain firmness and solidity, and afforded It great protection. The ends of the roller projected beyond the edges of the sheet and were terminated In knobs or bosses, which guarded in some measure the edges of the papyrus or rolls of parchment, which were often made in . the same manner. The whole volume was also inclosed in a parchment case, on the outside of which the title of tbe work was conspicuously recorded. WANTS OTHER WOMEN Grateful for Health Restored by Ljdia E.

New York.--Cattle so crave a certain substance which Is lacking from their food in some districts in South Africa that they eagerly search for the bodies of dead animals and greedily devour their bones, even though the flesh still clings to the skeletons and even though the dead animal be one of their own mates. Such Is tbe statement of Dr. H. H. Green of tbe division of veterinary research at Pretoria, South Africa, In a recent report on this strange condition made to the American Society of Biological Chemists. Osteopbegla, as this bone-eating •habit of the cattle Is 'termed, results directly from a lack of efficient phosphorus in tbe food adequately to supply the body; the low content of this in tbe food can be traced to the very small amount of It In the soIL The animals have learned that bones are a very rich source of the substance they crave, since the skeleton Is made up almost entirely of calcium phosphate and they satisfy their desire for phosphates Just as many animals gratify their appetite for salt at salt licks. Acute osteophagla occurs in almost all tbe animals In certain regions for about ten months In the year, according to Doctor Green, and only abates for about two months while tbe grass is very young. This disease can be prevented, experiments proved, by the use v>£ phosphate manuring in the soil or by the administration of phosphate to the animals affected, but In the latter esse it reappears again when this substance is removed from the diet. According to this scientist, osteophagia In itself does not usually result fatally, although It may affect tbe growth of young cattle or lessen the production of milk In cows, results which tre also sttrlbucat'< to the iow pbosphate content of the food. Its economic Importance ties In the fact that it la Indirectly the cause of a fatal bovine disease, common In South Africa, which is known as lamzlektfe This latter disease, characterised by a paralysis of the throat and neck muscles lameness and a humping of the back, is caused by a toxin produced by microorganisms harbored In decaying fiesh. The bone-eating animals In their attempt to gratify the desire for phosphate eat bones together with adhering putrid flesh; this - esh tpo often contains the toxin which causes lamsiefct*.

Hfcve you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are extensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason is plain--the article did not fulfill the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited to those who are in need of it. A prominent druggist says, "Take for example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent results, as many of my customers testify. No other kidney remedy has so large a sale." According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root) is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfills almost every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments, corrects urinary troubles and neutralises the uric acid which causes rheumatism.
