New York.—Twins may bo so bo- wihlerlngly alike that their own fami lies see no dilTcrenee In them, hut scientists arc Investigating Just how, and how much, these duplicate human beings really do resemble each other. Measurements taken on 15 sets of twins Identically alike were described by Dr. II. !'\ Perkins and Laura Bliss of the University of Vermont before the Eugenics Research association and the American Eugenics society In ses slon here. The same sides of a pair of twins tire more frequently alike than their opposite sides, the Investigation re vealed. To visualize this, Imagine a puli of twins like paper dolls folded over and cut by a simple pattern. If one Is placed in front of the other, both facing the same way, the two sides will be more likely to match than If one twin stands k> front of the other and they face each other. lu studying the symmetry of the twins' the Investigators examined (he eyes, nose, ears, teeth, eyebrows, hair whorl, right or left-handedness, hand prints, and also mentality. It had been previously suggested that a twin who has a duplicate ex actly like himself would probably bo an extraordinarily symmetrical person himself, that is, his two eyes and .ears and hands would be unusually alike. It was found, however, that the iden tical twins were less often symmet rical Individually than other twins who did not look alike, and who also were examined. Mentally the twins examined were found to be strikingly similar In in telligence, the report stated. The youngest ones were more alike than the older ones, and .the similarities were particularly close In answering questions which involved Inborn or In herited tendencies and abilities, it was found. ‘75-Pound Piece” of Ice Doomed by U.

Sinclair, representing tk • American Geographic society, has returned to tills country from a hard I trip of exploration through Ecuador, whore ho had a terrific experience In | an endeavor to reach a smoking vol- i enno which had erupted, the whole j country for miles around being del uged with a flow nt lava.

Little or nothing had been known about the volcano and he seemed valuable data concerning Its character and locution, Mr. Sinclair pointed out that he was not the first white man to see the vol cano—a mountain which the natives call Rcventnrtor, meaning "Eruptor." Near the place the explorers came on a lone white man who could not toll them how long lie had been there nor why he had penetrated so far from civilized association. Nor would he go with them to the mountain. He, too, had been infected by the supersti tion of the natives, which holds that whenever a human sets foot on tho side of the tall volcano Kcventndor becomes "nitty brnvn," or very brave. Pastor Called On to Have Business Mind? "The church Is caught in the ocel dental, ttnd more particularly Ameri can, lmblt of gauging success by .the spectacular. A successful church, like a successful furniture shop, Is the one which has the biggest establishment, offers the biggest assortment of wares, and affords the biggest income. . . , A considerable part of my work ns a minister is not so different from tliqt of the executive charged .with the re sponsibility of getting new customers into a furniture shop," writes a min ister in Harper’s. “I must ‘sell’ my Institution just as surely nnd skillfully ns the man hired by the local chamber of commerce ‘sells’ his or ganization. The difference Is that he was hired for that express purpose, nnd I, tradition says, was hired, or should have been, for something else.’’ Use of Hooks Every home owner should invest In a good assortment of hooks.

Odd Po tv cr Credited to Precious Stones Superstitions still persist about the magical properties of ninny stones. On account of that associated with the opal, llie proposal is frequently made by jewelers’ associations to re move it front the list of‘‘birth stones." Strange places have been looked In to for stones possessing unusual re- quirenicnls. The gizzard of a rooster Is said to have revealed a stone which rendered wives more agreeable to their husbands* the shell of a crab yielded a stone for sore eyes. Beads of paste or glass were In common use In ancient Gaul under the name of serpents’ eggs. They were thought to he generated from the breath of the serpents, being shot into the air from Their hissing Jaws. Soldiers wore ser pents' eggs to make them Invincible. lit was long believed that a sap phire would heal diseases of the eye; and such a stone was once given to 'the treasury of St. Paul's by n well- meaning London grocer, to be used l<fr that purpose. There wore stones 'tn herd wounds, to aid tho complex'.•ti | and to prevent drunkenness. St. Isidore, bishop of Seville, Is said ; do have known of a stone which, when i 'powdered and drunk with vinegar, j made men insensible to torture. There ! is no record, however, that he over! Tried it. Wide Atvahs It was after dusk and yet the two ! •young people sitting close together In the park made uo attempt to depart. Presently a keeper came in sight, going Ills rounds before -closing the gates. "Sorry to disturb ye," he said to. the 1 Idlers, "but it’s too late for ye to be sitting here." The youth wns apologetic. ■“I didn’t realize it was so late," he murmured. "We ure going to be mar ried next year."

I Endurance Chess Game May Last Ten Years Immunity to Poisons Net Yet Understood One of the most fascinating chap ters In animal poisons Is the subject of r^itural Immunity, the fact that sonic animals are immune to tho pol- sons of others and remain unhurt If stung or bitten by the poisonous ani mals, whereas all other sorts of beasts succumb. A case In-point Is that of desert nnl- mnls, which are unbanned by p scor pion’s sling. The desert fox, the knp- garoo rat nnd other Inhabitants of deserts where scorpions abound are in this happy position. Their cousins, living far away from the desert, would at once be seriously Injured by a scor pion's sting, whereas the desert breeds remain unhurt. It Is to be supposed Hint in (Tie fiir dlsTnnf past, Before the desert nnlmals had this complete immunity to scorpion venom, those which were stung and could not resist died, leaving no offspring. Their luckier brothers, who happened to have a hardier constitution, survived find left behind them a resistant race of descendants.—The Forum. Created Cinderella It wns just three centuries since Charles l’errnult, creator of Cin derella nnd Bed Biding Hood, was horn. L’errnult, a Frenchman, never dreamed that the fairy children of Ids liraln would become immortal. He wrote poetry of tin exceedingly dull order, and it was by Ills poems nnd not by his fairy stories that he hoped to win fame. I’errault conceived and wrote his stories, which lie called "Tales of Mother Goose," to please his little son, just ns Lewis Carroll, a mathematician, told the talc of Alice in Wonderland to amuse two Mile girls. Cinderella and tier glass slip per was one of I’errnult’s favorite heroines. Some people have tried to insist that Cinderella’s slipper of “verre," or glass, was meant to be a slipper of “vnlr," or fur, but one can not imagine Cinderella in anything but a crystal slipper.

Ask Ban on German Doctors Be Lifted Berlin.—An urgent plea for raising the embargo placed by ex-belligerents upon the admission of German doctors to former German colonies—now inun dated territories—is made b.v I he Ger man Colonial society and allied bodies. They have sent a joint petition to the federal government requesting it to call the attention of the League of Nations to the fact, which Is said to tie admitted by the mandatory powers themselves, that malaria, sleeping sickness, yellow fever, tuberculosis and other diseases arc on the Increase to an alarming extent In these terri tories arid that The supply of doctors to cope with them Is notoriously In adequate. Recent German medical discoveries ito combat sleeping sickness, dysentery and malaria, Igive placed Germans lit the front rank of .tropical disease fighters and therefore should be made available for reasons of humanity to thousands of sufferers in the man dated territories, the petition declares. Plans Own Funeral New York.—The will of Celeste [)e I.ongpre Hcckscher, composer* directs that her funeral he Hold in the eve ning and that the mourners wear white. Toronto, Ont.—There died a few days ago In Ste. Anne do Benupre, Quebec, at the age of eighty-six, Louis Jobln, the originator of the cigar-store Indian. Louis .Tobin’s family name does not rest exclusively on Ids bizarre produc tion. He was described as the great est wood carver In the world. He carved wood for seventy years, though of into Ills sight bad fulled and lie had laid away the chisel. The present generation knew him only ns the religious wood carver of tho shrine of Ste. Anne de Benupre. The pilgrims who left their crutches took away In their stead little Jobln statuettes. Ills work hns gone nil over the world, but the world Is unaware of him. He never signed his statues. You cannot go Into n church In rural Quebec or motor through Its roads, that are one unending village, wlthoqt seeing n Jobln. Ho made wnysitjo shrines nnd.Cnlyarics ns well ns stnt- ,ues for churches. Ills subjects were *Christ nn^l Mary and the Holy Babe, the innumerable saints of the calendar. And Ills chisel nnd mallet mndc many an npostle. Indeed, with his long, white patriarchal heard, ho himself did not look unlike an apostle or an early Christian father. He did not forget his patron saint, Ste. Anne, "Our Lady of tho Miracles." A more than life-sized statue of her is in (he garden of the basilica of the Canadian Lourdes and pious pilgrims kiss her hand In gratitude. There, is a notable Jobln figure In the study lialL of the College of Ste. Anne de Bocntlere and the figure pf General Wolfe In u niche of the Ca nadian rnclfic railroad cilice in Que bec Is also from his chisel. But for Jobln tho niche would he empty, Tho original statue was taken by the ofll cers of a British ship, but Quebec, which Is determined to honor Wolfe ns well as Montcalm, had Jobln re place it. *•*"• The Toronto Art gallery lias one of his angels and it docs,not need to hang its head in the sculpture gallery beside the mastcrpleco of Chinese art. It nlso hns tho simplicity of greatness, the tranquil dignity of transfigured personal emotion. While cigar-store Indians ate be coming extinct, .those created by Jo bln in Ids early days In the .industry nrc in keen'demand by collectors. -One of the masterpieces of St. Nocltlne stands today nt the front door of a tobacconist’s shop on (lie Bite St. Jean, In Quebec city, where it was placed fifty years ago. The owner has re fused $500 for it. Jobln wns a humble artist, who inever talked of art for art’s sake, but .did whatever his hand found to do. What-was In demand sixty nnd sev enty years ago was .figureheads fur ships. Canada was n center of the wooden shipbuilding industry. So (he young Jobln, although ho went for a brief period to New York, found more ample scope for ills talents at home. Learned Art Young, lie has given tills account of his '$nrly life: "J was born at Bo In to nux Trembles and when I was very young ■ my duther sent me to my uncle, who -was a wood carver, to learn the trade. We‘did a big business In ships’ figure heads. There were many ships and they all wanted ornaments on the prow and nameboard on the stern. I made dolphins and sirens nnd Nep- tunes. Tho sign outside my shop is a Neptune, which was ordered but .not taken. "Forty years I carved for ships,” he wont on. "Then the steamers came <ln and iron hud no use for wood. I had long carved Indians. I also carved the figure of a notary for a notary’s ■door in Montreal. But for years I 'ha.ve done mostly angels and apostles and saints.” .Tobin’s art will not altogether die with him. Ho leaves behind him a nephew, Edouard Mareotte, trained in his cruft, and Ste. Anne, Though the great master of wood carving Is <no more, will not bo deprived of sacred iconography. Dahlonega & Atlanta Hns Line. Leave Dahlonega \7 -.^O A. M. Leave Dahlonega 4 P. M. RETURN.
