“ARGONAUTS” OF MANY LANDS
Appellation Rtally Taken From the
Legendary Heroea of Grooco Who
Voyaged With Jaeon.
An urgonnut Is u species of cuttle*
fish, and, in American history, It is
the name given to anyone who went to
California in search of gold In 1849—
a “Forty-Niner." In classical myth
ology “Argonaut" wus the nume given
to the legendary heroes of Greece, the
"Argonauts" who stilled with Jason—
king of Iolcos in Thessaly—in the
ship “Argo” to recover the Golden
Fleece. Among this hand of heroes
were Castor and Pollux, Hercules,
Theseus and Orpheus. The Golden
Fleece was in Colchis, a country sit
uated at the extreme east of the Bux
ine (the Black sea), and wns hanging
on a sacred onk tree In the grove of
Ares (Mores) where nn enormous un
sleeping drogon guarded it. Accord
ing to the story this wonderful fleece
had grown on the winged rain which
carried Helle and her brother, Fhryx-
us, children of King At ha inns of The
bes, away from their cruel stepmother,
Ino. One the Journey Helle fell and
was drowned in the sea, while Phryxus
arrived In Colchis, where King Aeetes,
his relative, reigned. Fliryxus sacri
ficed the ram to Zeus (Jupiter); short
ly afterward King Aeetes murdered
him to obtain the Golden Fleece, and
Jason, being related to the murdered
Phryxus, set out to recover the fleece.
It wns a dangerous undertaking; but,
fortunately Medcn, daughter of King
Aeetes, fell In love with Jason nnd
succeeded in making the dragon full
asleep, whereupon Juson took the Gold
en Fleece nnd sailed away with Medea
as his wife, nnd with tho Golden
Fleece, safely nhourd the “Argo." The
story Is told by Nathaniel Hawthorne
In one of his hooks for children, and
by Charles Kingsley In “Heroes."

“You may well ask," said Smith sol

“When I get to the office I’ll take

being quite large, I had to reach over
so as not to spill the statements, and
In doing so my foot, unawares to me,
became entangled In an electric lamp
cord. As I started to walk away I
wns suddenly Jerked from my feet

America’» Food and Medicine May Co for V

“If Ruaala'e children, and adults
aa well, are to be saved from death
this winter from exposure—after
the charity of America haa brought
Ahem through the famine of laat
winter, they muit be supplied with
clothing." This la a concensus of
•pinion of the American Relief Ad
ministration staff In Russia, from
Colonel Haskell down to the In
spectors, according to their reports
to Herbert Hoover, head of the
A. R. A.
From every part of Russia where
4he A. R. A. has been feeding
children and adults, and has been
Instituting sanitation and medical
service and Inoculations to save
literally millions of lives, the story
Is the same—that the children lack
oven the barest essentials of under
wear. shoes^ stockings or outer
wear, with which to protect thera-
%\v9s against ths rigors of (the
Russian winter. And the need of
aid In this direction for adults, too,
Is indicated by statements of re
cently-returned workers, who state
that In cases where Russian em
ployes have been given a blanket
for extra services tho blankets have
almost Invariably been made Into
overcoats. Literally millions of
children, say reports, have no shoes
—an Rem which In Itself may make
It Impossible for them to go to Am
erican Relief child-feeding kitch
ens. Free shoes and stockings have
been provided for *60,000. children
who are absolutely without foot
wear, but the whole problem Is
beyond the reach of any general
funds now available.
The American Relief Administra
tion, to meet this emergency, has
put Into effect a Clothing Remit
tance, functioning in every way as
does the now world famous Hoover
Food Remittance. For twenty dol
lars, sent to the A. R. A. at 41
Broadway, New York, the following
articles, or their equivalent In val
ue, will be delivered to any desig
nated person in Russia: 4 2-3 ynrdf
