Prehistoric Cow’s Burial Place Found Baris.—Archeological discov eries, believed to date hack to the New Stone age, have been made at Courdcmnrches, near Le Mans, where a French wine merchant lias found a series of 20 burial places cut into the |> rock.

And neither feaf is realized once a lllght lias begun 1 Amelia IOarhnrt, who believes that thousands of new names would bo added to Die lists of American avia tion enthusiasts hut for these base less misapprehensions, emphasizes tills point In her first magazine article for Cosmopolitan, of which she was re- cenlly appointed associate editor. ‘‘I have heard often from people who have not flown, the explanation, 'l can’t stand great heights; if makes mo dizzy to look down,’” says the iirst woman to fly ihe Atlantic. Dizziness Lacking. “Actually such dizziness is almost entirely lacking in a plane. The per son peering from the top of a high building is affected definitely by the physical contact, between iiis body and the street 20 stories lieiow. This con tact, or support, creates in his mind tlie absolute feeling of height, carry ing with It a horror of falling. “In (lie case of the plane, tlie pas senger lias no longer any vertical solid connecting his body with the ground. Only atmosphere fills the space be tween tlie plane and the cornfields far below. There is no measuring stick of altitude. “Tlie average plane travels from perhaps 80 to 1-10 miles an hour. In theory that seems breath-taking. In fact it is quite tlie contrary. Thirty miles an hour in an automobile, or say 50 on a railroad train, give one a vastly greater sensation of speed than moving perhaps thrice that fast in a large plane. “On tlie highway every pebble passed is a speedometer. The ties and tracks running backward from an observation car register realiza tion of the train’s motion. In the air there are no trees, no telegraph poles or mile-stones to act as speed indica tors. There is only a countryside below opening out before one in a leisurely fashion.” Miss Eafliart believes that women generally are as calm and confident in Lite air as men and that, except for tlie physical endurance demanded in long-distance Hying, they are able to tnke their places in all phases of aviation. Feared to Take l-lcr Up. Incidentally siie reveals liiat the pilot who took her up lor the Iirst time eight years ago so mistrusted her feminine frailty that lie insisted she he accompanied by a man. “It was in 11)20 that I began to learn to fly,” she relates. “My tirst flight was at Rogers airport, Los Angeles. I was there with iny father and talked hi in into treating me tc a ride. I found that I wouldn’t be trusted in the front cockpit alone. Obviously I was considered a nervous lady who might become hysterical, try to jump or indulge some idiosyncrasy that men impute to women. “That was (lie beginning of my active interest. As I sailed over; tlie oil derricks I wanted to fly over them myself. And I set about trying to do so. 1’rices for instruction had de creased from 81,000 to 8500 for 10 or 12 hours in tlie air anti, after some high finance, I managed a few les sons. “After two and a half days of in struction in tho air I felt that 1 must have a plane of my own. It cost me 82,000, and to earn part of it I gol my Iirst job—with the telephone company. It was not an elaborate one. I was a sort of chaperone to the oHlce boys, ami tile clerks.” The Cosmopolitan article also dis closes that America’s most famous woman flyer came very near follow ing a quile different vocation, Hint of a doctor. “During tlie war I went to Toronto and worked as a V. A. D. In a unit which corresponded to our nurses’ aid,” relates Miss Kurliart. “That ex perience almost inspired me to he a physician and I followed it with pre ttied Ira I work at Columbia university until Ilie conviction was borne homo ilir.t I lacked Ihe real call essential to medical success."

PHONE WALNUT TOOT, ATLANTA, G TSAR OF BEGGARS SEIZED; REVEALS SECRET SIGNS Chicago.—Anita Keep, n Chicago beauty who once reigned sumptuously in her own villa at Monte Carlo as llie toast of European wit's and nobles, was found living in a Soulli Side base ment room. She scrubs by I lie day when she cun, Ihiiling it hard to get work. But she still has the hi no in her eyes that made her-a favorite of Edward VII, the Grand Duke Cyril, Count Tolstoi, William Leeds, the tinplate king, and ot hers. She was discovered when another headliner of a by-gone day, Belle Liv ingston. touring the country writing, visited her in the basement 'room which she also uses as a laundry. Mrs. Keep bad entertained Belle Livingston 21 years ago when she was ensconced In her Monte Carlo mansion. Mrs. Keep made her Iirst appear ance at a charity hall In Chicago 85 years ago as (lie bride of Billy Keep, the law partner‘of Frank O. I.owden. Mrs. Rotter Rainier led tlie grand march at llic ball. Mrs. Ko.op Idt tier husband several years later and went to Europe. Lie killed himself in 1000.

A friend pat me In a home, hut I couldn’t stand it-t-un eternal parade of wheel chairs.” “I am certainly a strong believer in Black-Draught, as I have used it off and on now for about twenty- five years,” says Mr. G. W. Blagg, of Cleveland, Tex. “I take it for indiges tion, sour stomach, a tight bloated feeling after meals, and it has always been a help to me and gives ms relief. I take it when I feel bad—when I need a laxative. “It is easy to take, acts quickly and regulates the bowels.” Purely vegetable. Costs only 1 cent a dose. Old Mud Church Little Red School House Has Nothing on Washington in Banner Display.

Washington.—The “Little Old Bed School House” of tlie song lias noth- ing on Washington when it conies to Hying the Stars and Stripes. Aside from its glorious trees, criss crossing tlie city with green in sum mer as seen from any high place like tlie Washington monument tourist ob servation tower, tlie most notable prospect of the capital Is.the wealth of streaming bunting waving above tlie government buildings, i The Hag is in sight wherever you . look between sunrise and sunset. ! Every government owned -or occupied ; structure, however big or small, from Ihe massive hulk of the capital ilsdf, standing in aloof majesty on its i gardened hill, to the least, of tlie ronled buildings where a corps of gov- I eminent clerks toll, lias at least one showing, and tlie big departments two ; or more. Bain or shine, they are al ways i Here—except once In a very ! long while. One Exception Noted. One of the exceptions came Just re cently. It involved tlie huge State- War-Navy building, as it is slid known, although inhabited nownthtys only by | tlie State and War departments, tlie j navy having moved out to a “semi permanent” factory-IJke structure on tlie Mtill in crowded war days. It’s n mighty building, standing four-square in sunken gardens and of tlie same architecture on eaclt of its four street facings. It Hies four Hags, one in tlie center of each front, Muttering above ! tlie peaked Jumble of the roof. Tills day it llew none. Sharp eyes In the taller business structures, away across Lafayette square In the business heart of tlie city, are accustomed to those Holler ing lings.

Sheiby Hopkins, who knows Ids 1 Washington from years of contacts ns I legal adviser to scores of Lniln-Amer- | lean governments, near governments | and just plain ordinary revolutionists, J was quick to notice Hint ihe emblems j of freedom were missing.

The flag j poles were being painted, Hint was all; I but it only happens once In half a | decade or so and a lot more folks than tlie captain were worried and in quired. Tlie White House Hies tlie national .colors only when tiio President is in residence. It is missing nil summer when he’s away vacationing. The senate and house llags tly only when tlie two bodies ore tn session. At other times only the Hags in the cen ter of the east and west fronts, under shadow of the dome, arc displayed. Urs Elaborats Sign-Language by Which French Hobo Gets Dope on Residents. Rcrlgueux, France.—Ilia excellency, the president of Ihe international union of beggars :aud vagabonds, was arrested here recently. A search of ills pockets disclosed tin; complex, inner machinery of Hie great system whereby beggars are able to enjoy life in Hie face of strict police regulations against men dicancy. The president was pursuing Ids way thoughtfully across Hie rich I’erigourdian countryside, with n knapsack on Ids hack and not a sou in -Iiis pocket, when two inspecting gendarmes stopped him to examine Ids papers. They found more papers than tlioj li ;il bargained for. The president liati no ollirial papers, to lie sure ntul c!e Vlineil to give tils name, hut lie pos sessed in divers ragged pockets hun dreds of little squares of paper con taining (lie marks of flic special signs by which French hobos recognize a charitable lady's home or a menacing dog kennel. He assured tlie police that Ids or gnnizntion numbered thousands of members, among till sorts of rovers, lie explained Hint life membership in the organization was to he laid for Hie modest sum of a franc. Examination of Hie litile squares of paper revealed the key to (lie [Miz zling hobo signs In France, scratched on walls or fences or telephone poles A very elaborate sign-language exists here, as In Hie United Stales. A circle with a cross marked inside means a good welcome, plenty ot bread, wine and a lied. On tlie other hand, a square with a crude represen tation of n set of teelli, warns Hie next hobo that Ids predecessor found Hie house owner Inhospitable and the owner's dog still more so. The door of the country constable’s house Is marked by a row of bars. Abilities of Triplets Found Fixed by Birth Washington.—If a triplet child starts out in life bigger and brighter Ihai’i Ids fellow triplets lie is likely to remain just about the same distance ahead of others through childhood. This is tlie caste with a set of trip lets whose menial and physical (level opmerit Im.e been recorded al inter vals during (ifieen years. The triplets consist of iwj girls and a lio\. according to E. (’. Nnwe of tlie stale loraail school at fount I’leas tint. Midi., who lias reported I lie case to Hie Jo.irucl of Heredity.

The meet ing house was built as a place of wor ship of q colony of Dutch settlers in 1800. Across a rock foundation, heavy logs' were laid and from these, upright logs were placed at Intervals. Between these upright standards were a double row of slats packed with n composition of clay and mud.

The t elephone user some times wonders why he does not hear the person at tho distant telephone clearly. The chances are that the distant party is directing his con- vc?rs.n ion away from rather into the telephone. The mouthpiece on the tele- pi.one transmilter is designed to concentrate the sound waves when you speak directly into it. If you merely talk at your telephone, holding the transmitter to one side or several inches away from your lips, tho mouthpiece cannot delp you. Dahlonega Telephone Co. Moslems Pay Persons to Weep for the Dead Kossovo, Macedonia.—Moslem fu nerals have clung to age-old customs in the face of die movement to west- erni/y everything.
