Popp Phone 162 West McHenry Baraet having christened one of its frtreets Pepys avenue, now finds It- «j&elf involved in the. old controversy *s to the correct pronunciation of the ^diarist's name. Some years ago A. H. Blake, after an investigation of evidence, reported to the Library association In favor of "Peeps," but this was In direct opposition to the practice of the Cottenham Pepys, one of whom V.h™ sddr«w?«?d »« "Poonn* retorted angrily, "My name, sir, is Pep-pis." One at least, of the diarist's contemporaries would have recognized neither of these. James Carcasse, clerk In the office of Pepys, in his "Luclda Intervaila," published In 1679, has the lines Him must I prate* Wfea opM«< hath my lip#, 8«nt me from navy to Ui« trk of ( Pepya. Which clearly suggests that he knew his chief , as "Pips."--Manchester Guardian. WILL KEEP RELICS IN OLD HOLYROOD '.JEhsr ancient palace of Holyrood house holds the proud tradition of being the royal palace of the Scottish kings. David I, in 1128, founded an abbey in Edinburgh and named it Holy Rood. The monastery, which was built in the Norman and early Gothic styles, was dissolved in Henry Vlirs time and the chapel became a parish church. James II of England made it a chapel royal in 1687, but it began to fall into ruins in 1768. The adjoining palace, begun by James IV in 1501, was used as the residence of the king until the union. The present king and queen of England make it their abode when visiting Edinburgh. Now a trust has been established to preserve the many articles of historical Interest gathered ^ beneath the roof of the ancient palace, and the trust is empowered to add to this collection.--Kansas City Times. HOT WRITTEN FOR THE GENTLER SEX Admiral Sir Harry Keppel, the sailer who made over the British navy, was exceedingly fond of his Rabelaisian fund of anecdote, and experienced difficulty in producing his memoirs because his "lady typist" refused flatly to take down his best stories. Harry Furniss, the caricaturist. recalls one tale of the admlral i When visiting the royal yacht at Cowes, the prince of Wales Informed Queen Victoria that "the little admiral," as Sir Harry "was called, was about to publish his reminiscences. Her majesty called hini before her and said: "I hear, Sir Harry, you are going to publish your recollections. I shall be glad to read them." "No, your majesty," he said, "I fear they will not be fit reading for a lady." The admiral was exceedingly fond of shooting, but was a careless shot. On one occasion he wrote his hostess: "I have had an excellent day's sport. I have shot two woodcock, ten pheasants, a rabbit and your so; change. Compromised ' j "My wife started a row with me this \ morning, just as I was coming away," on the porch of the tavern at Tumlinville, related Gap Johnson of Rumpus Ridge.

"Aw, I just hollered, 'don't believe a word you say, but I agree with U all !' and whipped up and drove away as fast as I could."--Kansas City Star.

Sheiks Discard Robes No longer do the students in the prominent schools of Egypt all wear the traditional sheik's robes. After a small, but significant, civil war, they discarded the flowing robes for the modern dress. The minister of education favored the robes and threatened a lockout of students, but the students entered classrooms by wearing robes over their modern suits and discarding them while remaining In school.

Gun Silencers Used on Railroad Engines Oil-electric locomotives for railroad yard use in cities would wake up the neighborhood all night long were, It not for gun silencers. These devices, Invented for use on firearms for war service, so that gunners might fire silently, have found a new and growing use. The silencers, unlike automobile exhaust mufflers, do hot reduce noise by placing obstructions In the path of the discharged gases, but by passing the exhaust through the peculiarly constructed silencing chamber. Oilelectric engines, designed especially for railroad switching service, gen erate their power aboard without emitting the smoke and noise.
