Odd Buildings Traced
to Roman Occupation
Efforts have been made for cen
turies to bare the mystery that hangs
over the unique “Rows” t Chester,
England, but their efforts have been
in vain. These rows consist of street
lengths of covered arcade, not on the
street level hut several feet above it.
One walks in front of shops and on
the roofs of shops at once, looking
down upon the traflic in the street
and upon pedestrians. Visitors sa.v
that the mystery of the origin of these,
structures causes them to give a pleas
ant, creepy feeling to those who walk
through them and that buying a collar
stud in the rows is almost like buying
a bronze or picture on pavement level.
Chester was the great Roman mili
tary station of Beta. The central
point of the Roman station was ex
actly where the rows now converge.
The principal streets of the modern
city were tile principal streets of
Devn and the principal streets of all
subsequent towns on that site.
The Romans left Devn about 400
A. It. and for two centuries afterward
burning Chester was a favorite game
with the powers of the time. —Lon-
don Times.
Scientists Plan War
on Destructive Ants
In an effort to combat the ravages
of ants in tropical regions, scientists
of i!:t: bureau of agriculture are study
ing various preparations for the ex
terminaflion of the posTfc. The white
ants, which travel in great armies,
exist on wood and heavy roots and de
vour fence posts, house pinning and
even' totally destroy small buildings,
suys Popular Mechanics Magazine.
Not only are structures attacked, but
cultivated vegetation by tlie #cre is
consumed by the cutleaf or umbrella
ants. These insects often clean out
an entire garden in a night, leaving
nothing but the bare stalks of the
plants. In Colombia, where great col
onies of these ants are. found, they
build large, cone-shaped mounds of a
white claylike substance, which in
many cases rise to a height of 20 feet
and at a distance look like Indian
tepees. Once started on a building, or
piece of furniture, it is said the wood
eating species cannot be stopped by
any method now known until the ma
terial is completely destroyed
Had Care for Everything
Medicine for almost whtrffever ails
you could be obtained from a voodoo
doctor in Atlantic City until recently,
when the police interfered. Here are
the medicines, set forth in Hie doc
tor’s pamphlet:
Black Cat’s Ankle Dust SSOO
Black Cat's Wishbone SI,OOO
King Salomon’s Marrow .*sl,ooo
Easy Life Powder SIOO
Tying Down Goods SSO
Chasing Away Goods SSO
Boss Fix Powders sls
The tying down goods were guar
anteed to hold the affections of a hus
band or a wife, and the chasing away
goods were said to be efficacious in
shying off undesirable suitors. The
boss fix powders were recommended
for employers hard to please. They
were designed to make the employer
happy arid content witli the work of
an employee.
Monarch as Yachtsman
r l*he work of Charles II on behalf of
the navy has been undervalued, it is
claimed; let us then give him full
credit for his services to yachting. The
Merry Monarch acquired a knowledge
of the sport during his exile in Hol
land, and soon after tlie Restoration
acquired a couple of small yachts, in
which he and Ms brother, the duke of
York, competed in the first yacht race
on record In British waters between
Greenwich and Gravesend in the au
tumn of 1061. So keen was Charles
that he had no fewer than fourteen
yachts built for his use, ranging from
25 to 160 tons, and one of them, the
Jamies, was constructed at Lambeth
from ids own designs.—Montreal Fam
ily Herald.
Birds Follow Icebergs
Each season when the Icebergs
break away from Greenland and start
to the south in the Atlantic they are
followed by ever-increasing flocks of
sea birds.
Officers of the coast guard cutters,
on duty near the Icebergs to warn
shipping, report the bird life with the
bergs Is much greater this year than
lit the past. Fulmars, shearwa
ters, murre, kittewukes and dovekies
are there in large numbers, apparently
to get the food supply that is pro
vided when the waves dash against
the bergs and disable the little people
of Lhe watep or the melting of the Ice
releases food imprisoned in the far
north ages ago.—Ohio State Journal
Olive Long Known to Man
Olives are named in the earliest ac
count of Egypt and Greece. The tree
spread throughout Asia .Minor, and
its fruit was one of the most valued
crops. The oil pressed from the fruit
was in general use throughout all
those countries. The olive was first
planted in Italy about the year 062 B
('„ Pape Colony. South Africa, has
grown olives since 17.".0.
