The brick is from Ras Shamra, a kingdom that existed 3,400 years ago, and the markings are a hand-written message of its king, Older than any existing specimen of handwriting out of Egypt, Crete or China, the brick is a puzzle to the men who read hieroglyphics as easlly as detective stories. Charles Virol leaud, who has undertaken decipher ing of the message, asserts that It is the oldest secret in existence. The brick was brought to France re cently from Syria where the Ras Shamra excavations are In progress. Virolleaud has taken it into his study and, higuratively, locked himself in. He said he hoped to have a solution, or at least, a theory by December. Preliminary examinations discloses that the alphabet of the country had 26 signs and were related to the Baby- lonian In that they were cuneiform. Each word contains three or four signs and the words are separated from each other by a deeply etched vertical line. Woman Prospector Makes Good Toronto.—Kathleen Rice, who threw aside the hood of a college graduate to wrest wealth from the North, is preparing to fight to the last ditch in the Manitoba mining courts for her hopes of fortune, as the reward of two decades of pioneering in the coun- try of The Pas. Behind the issuance of a writ and the scheduled hearing of a case at Dauphin, Man., is a story of how mil- | lions have elusively crossed the path of this most famous of Canadian wom- an prospectors, who, however, today faces the future confident that 20 years’ endeavor on her nickel and copper claims will some day bear abundant fruit. C. E. Herman, one of her later as sociates in the development of claims at one time valued at $5,000,000, situ- ated on Rice island, Herb lake, more than 100 miles from The Pas, has started legal action at Dauphin seeking specific verformance of an agreement said to have existed between himself and Miss Rice and others. Some of the most romantic figures in Canadian mining history enter into the story of the action; of these none is more colorful than that of Miss Rice herself, who was graduated from the University of Toronto, in 1906. plunged into a then unorthodox fem- inine career, taking to trousers quite as naturglly as she did to bobbed hair.

Frank is in high school, and he does not know exactly what he wants to do, or, even if he did know, if he would be able to accomplish his de- sires.

He has been happily married for more than forty years. Ali the emotional longings of youth have been satisfied or inhibited. He has no future to worry about. The work and the du- ties and the pleasures of today are all that concern him, He isn’t think- ing about the sort of job he will get; he has no concern as to whether or not his sweetheart will wait for him or be true to him, for she sits across the table from him three times a day and he mows she. will be faithful to him as long as life shall last. He has worked intelligently enough and has practiced economy and exercised judg- ment and forethought so that his temporal wants will be adequately pro- vided for as long as he may live. Nor does he have any forebodings as to what will happen after life for him has ended as he knows is inevitable before many years. He has faith enough not to be afraid. Maybe he is wrong, but if given his choice Barton would prefer to be seventy rather than seventeen.

DIPPING INTO SCIENCE Glands of the Skin Two kinds of glands are in the skin, those that give out the perspiration and those that give off oil. There are approx- imately two wmilllon sweat glands all over the body, but they are most numerous on the fore- hand, hands, and soles of the feet. The oil glands open most: ly into bhalr follicles, keeping the hair glossy and preventing the skin from becoming too dry. pager Dion. ) The writing covers both sides of the brick. Asked how he would proceed. to solve the problem, Virolleaud said: “l will start with some plausible hypothesis. [I will assume, let us say, that the brick contains a message either written by the king of Ras Shamra, or written to him by the mon- arch of -a neighboring realm. Deciph. ered, the brick may reveal the exist ence of a civilization the world has never heard of before. “Further specimens cf this writing which will undoubtedly be unearthed as the excavations continue, will light en the task which for the moment is extremely difficult and a total mys. tery. The presence of one Greek word, a hieroglyph, a Phoenician word and the task would be simple. “The belief that the brick Is a royal document ig confirmed somewhat hy the presence of a proper name at the top of the inscription. The name Is Aka-Hinni, The title has disappeared, the tablet being broken at this point. The document, if it can be so-called, is made more interesting by the fact that it is not written in Babylonian which was the diplomatic language of that era. “Luck, that god of archeologists and newspaper men, often operates in our favor. Among the inscriptions discov- ered In Syria and now on the way to Paris there Is a Babylonian text which may help us find out who Aka-Hinni was.” DARTMOUTH’S STAR Al K.

Takes Rattlers With Bare Hands De Soto, Wis.—Barehanded catching of live rattlesnakes is no trick for Jo- seph Wilson, known in this Mississippi river village as “the rattlesnake king.’ He has been handling the poisonous reptiles many years, but never has a rattler bitten him, Wilson disdains the forked stick oth- er hunters of rattlesnakes in this rock- hill region use to take live specimens. The ordinary method is to pin the rat- tlers with a stick and transfer them to a heavy bag.

Whether they are coiled or not makes no difference to him, Wilson asserts that not one of the Demand for Scriptures Is Growing in China Canton.—The business of sell: ing Bibles and other Christian books in China Is improving rap idly, according to a report com: piled here by the British-Ameri- ] can Bible society.

He had found a big den of snakes on a rocky promontory just below the vil- lage. He had an order for three big snakes for a museum, so he left the three largest of the den alive while he killed thirty-odd others and clipped off thelr tails for the bounty. With one of the big snakes draped around his neck and another around each bare arm, the snake catcher walked into the village. He rubbed the live snake's head against his cheeks, put them down his trouser legs and into the bosom of his shirt, let them coll at his feet and picked them up, and so on, for fully an hour. Dr. A. T. Andrews was skeptical and accused Wilson of hoaxing the crowd. The snake catcher borrowed a pencil and opened the snakes’ mouths to let the doctor examine fangs and poison sacs.
