The Tonto, tucked way high up on the side of a canyon wall, was found by a prospector 57 years ago. It was made of cypress poles, which the ancient builders had carried over the hills, probably from the vicinity of Miami or Globe.

Eugene R. Chable left his car in front of his gasoline station. Ten minutes later it wasn't there. He called his home because he couldn't remember the license number, and he knew he'd have to give th&t To police. In the midst of the conversation Mrs. Chable heard a familiar automobile horn on the street. She dashed out in time to see her husband's car speeding down the avenue. - ». *• -- She ran right after it and caught op when the car stopped several streets down for a red traffic light. "What are you doing with my car?" she asked the driver. "Aw, go on, this alnt your car," said the driver. Providence had placed a club within easy reach. Mrs. Chable snatched it up, and" the first blow landed on the auto thiefs wrist. The second landed on his arm. And the third--as powerful blow as 105 pounds and red hair could develop--landed nicely on the head of the tough young man. He Jumped out of the car and fled, but not before some one who had been attracted by the commotion had recognized him. This witness gave his name to Mrs. Chable, who relayed it to police, who visited tbe man's home and brought him in. Maria AnjWMtte Made Blue Flower Popular One of the most popular, patterns for china daring the last yefers of the Eighteenth century was a 'little individual sprig of blue cornflower, sometimes used in combination with a green leaf and sometimes without. This pattern was so much Used at the Chantilly potteries that when copied by the English potteries it was known as the "Qhantilly Sprig." Later the name was shortened to "Sprigged ChinA." However, the design was first made at Sevres' and owed its origin .to Marie Antoinette. This young queen of France took a great interest in the porcelain works at Sevres and frequently visited the Sevres factory, where a great deal .of .porcelain was made at her order for her rustic farm of Trianon. Marie Antoinette's favorite color was blue; and one day while visiting the Sevre works she mentioned that Sevres had produced nothing but roses, tulips, and Jonquils and no blue flowers. : Hoping to please the royal lady1 Hettinger gave orders to have painted on the dishes the little blue corn-: flower that she loved so much. Instantly on its appearance the tiny blue sprig becaine the rage. Chantilly took it up and alt the large potteries in England followed suit.--Kansas City Times. > Oxen Play Important 1 • Part in Korean Life The Korean people are most industrious workers of the soil, and from time immemorial oxen have borne the brunt of the battle. Methods of cultivation preclude the use of mechanical devices fcnd, as the native horse is too small for farm labor, the farmer's main beast of burden is his ox or cow. These animals plow his fields, h££l his heavy loads and turn his mill. ThS laSt service which Korean cattle render their masters is to be slaughtered for food or for hides. Since the expulsion of Buddhism bj the Yi dynasty in the Fourteenth and Fifteenth centuries, the people have been accustomed to the use of meat us an article of diet, particularly on all ceremonial occasions. As most of the farmers live in small Isolated communities, the cattle market becomes his "social center," combining his club, newspaper and debating society. Animal Aviators In Australia there are at least SO species of animals that are aviators-- flying squirrels, flying opcssoms, flying mice and even flying bears. Bird Flim High The condor probably ascends to g+eater altitudes than any other bird. It is believed that it sometimes straggles up to a height of four miles. We're Proud of the Friends % w; 'ye Turnit are Fakes*" The workmen of France and, Italy are exceedingly clever in the business of imitating ancient furniture and similar pieces of old art craft, and in their ifaitating they are thorough and systematic to the extent that the copy is often as handsome a piece of work as the original. Persons who engage in this questionable art are artisans of the first water. They make use ot old wood and when it is desired to give a piece the appearance of years of actual service, they put the piece into actual use where it will get real wear and tear. In addition to this they make use of fabrics which are really old, taken from pieces which they have gathered at various times in their search for old wool. f-J £ -1|- • i, W.P: PATHFINDER 30x4.50 $7.45 Save on all sixes It's a real satisfaction to sell tires that make a real friend of every customer.

We had just passed the empty black basalt coffin of a priest of Ptah, but on looking through the glass case that contains a statuette of Isis, he pointed out that the previously empty coffin now held a mysterious figure! My companion's explanation of this somewhat disturbing apparition was that the reflection of an effigy in a coffin on the other side of Isis' case was caught by one glass of the case and thrown by the other glass right into the vacant coffin of Ptah's priest! Tbe illusion is certainly remarkable. --London Mail.

The situation has never arisen. Under all the laws of the United- States, the child of American parents, born abroad, is considered an American citizen in ex actly the same status as one born in the United States. On the other hand the Constitution expressly states that the Ji'resident must be American-born. It would probably require a Supreme court interpretation to settle the matter. ... * .
