Recent Incident Showi There Are Two
Left, and They Live In Sac
ramento, Cal.
There are at least two thoroughly
honest people in Sacramento, Bays
the Union of that city, and that is
why Miss Maud Williamson got back!
a five-dollar goldpiece that was in'
other hands for more than a week.j
The money was returned to her ly
a blind peanut vender who has a
stand at Twenty-eighth and M
streets. I
Miss Williamson bought a bag of
peanuts from the man and acciden-.
tally gave him a five-dollar gold
piece instead of a nickel. She missed
the coin not long afterward, but it
did not occur to her that she had
paid it out accidentally until some
one suggested that possibility sev
ral days later. '
She went back to the vender's
stand and asked him if he had acci
dentally taken in a five-dollar gold
piece instead of a nickel. He put
his hand into his coat pocket and
took out a scrap of paper in which
the missing gold coin was wrapped.
He explained to Miss Williamson
that one of his customers had been
honest enough to return it to him
when he gave it out as five cents in
change. He had put it away safely,
for he expected that sooner or later
it would be called for. Yeuth's

AIRPLANES AND ASH TREES.
- A timber expert states that the de
mand for ash has gone up so enor
mously since we went in for airplane
construction on the present big Bcale
that prices are fully three times what
they were in pre-war days. Noth
ing but the very best English ash
serves the purpose. "The finest in
the world," is his verdict. . Experi
ments with other wood, notably
American spruce, have yielded most
disappointing results, and it is a cu
rious fact, due to climatic causes,
that Irish ash is unsatisfactory too.
But an ash tree cannot be grown in
a day. The timber is utterly worth
less for airplane purposes unless it
is at least sixty years old. It is all
the better if it is double that age,
when some of the trunks can show a
clear, straight run of 80 feet or more.
London Tit-Bits.
Peculiar Superstition.
If fake teeth could talk, they would
tell strange tales. A farmer's wife at
tributed her good luck with a certain
kind of delicious cooky for which she
was fumous to the fact that the mold
with which she always cut out the
cookies was a set of false teeth willed
to her by an aunt who, in her Mine,
had been able to cook to beat the
band. Success crowned her culinary
efforts because she worked with this
weird and unwieldy crescent of worn
out teeth. Thus doth superstition lead
us captive I
