CASTO R IA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 3 0 Years Signature of PAUL REVERE RIDES AGAIN Patriotic Observance iin Which City of Boston and Other Communi ties Take Part. The Gnostics were a group of an cient heretics, famous from the rise of Christianity. They did not consti- tute a distinct sect, but were more nearly a complication of many sects The Gnostics claimed to interpret the teachings of Christianity in a philo sophic manner, and in so doing com bined Oriental theology and Greek philosophy with its doctrines. The principal tenets of the Gnostics were as follows: Belief in one eternal God- Countless generations of aeons ema nating from God, and representative of the divine attributes. The essential evil of material sub stance. The existence of a demiurge (in ferior god) by whom the world was governed. He was the Old Testament God, and hostile to the Supreme Be ing. These tenets vs ere revived in Spain by the “Priscillianists” in the Fourth century. Ready for Him. He looked like an agent for a non- refillable egg or something, but his as surance was such that the lady of the house asked him in and bowed him to. a parlor chair. She then seat ed herself and waited his opening re marks. “My name, madam,” announced the caller grandiloquently, “is Opportun ity.” The lady acknowledged this with a slight nod. “I’ll listen to your scheme,” she re sponded serenely, “but I may as well tell you that my name is Prudence.” Marconi Announces New Radio Find.

NO Settlements Made The Day We Collect FLOUR MILL NOW IN OPERATION In a patriotic observance the city of Boston, with the co-operation of several adjoining communities, in ac cordance with an annual custom, com memorated the famous midnight ride of Paul Revere. The celebration in Boston began the night before April 19. “Patriot’s Day,” when a descend ant of one of Paul Revere’s contempo raries hung a lantern in the belfry of the Old North church, just as was done on the night of April 18, 1775. Then on April 19 the ride to Lexington was repeated by a man on horseback, dressed to resemble Paul Revere, and who followed the route taken on that historic occasion. The messenger de parted from the quaint little house in North Square where the real Paul Re vere plied his trade as a silversmith, the crowded Italian quarter the old house stands undisturbed among the modern buildings that rise above it on all sides. In spite of the momentous conse quences of that 18-rnile ride in the Eighteenth century, comparatively few persons saw Paul Revere as he raced from hamlet to hamlet to spread the alarm of the British advance.

D. C. Despite unfavorable weather conditions, the birds will make rapid progress toward their home goals after they start in a race. When the wind is high and strong, they fly very close to the ground, where they are best sheltered from the elements. Ornithological Quest. The biological survey and the Bishop museum of Honolulu are sending a scientific expedition to explore the Ha waiian islands national bird reserva tion. The company will make collec tions and gather information concern ing the bird life of the reservation, which consists of a dozen or more islands, reefs and shoals stretching westward from the Hawaiian archipel ago proper for more than 2,590 miles toward Japan. The Navy department is to furnish a vessel for the use of the party. Source of Thorianite. It is said that the mineral thoria nite, now largely used in the manufac- ture ' of mantles for incandescent gas lamps, is at present not known to oc cur elsewhere than in the island of Ceylon. Its discovery was due to the operations of the Ceylon mineral sur vey. It is exported to Europe and th< United States. The report on the efforts made by i the government to suppress slavery j and human sacrifice in the Nago hills j shows, according to Mr. Clayton, who | was recently commissioner on the ! northeastern frontier of Burma, that j last year there were 271 slaves in j Ekamptu. as compared with 373 in the ' previous year. The reduction w as! mainly due to release of slaves, writes j Henri Rickard in the Cincinnati En- j quirer. Several cases have been re- 1 ported of Indians being enticed by ! Nagas to work as blacksmiths, and be- ' Ing seized and sold into slavery in the Hukong valley, but only seven Indian slaves were found, of whom three were released, the others being con tent with their lot. An Indian man and a girl set apart for sacrifice by the Nagas were released. The investigations showed that hu man sacrifice was much more com- 1 mon in the Naga hills than was sup- ! posed, there being no fewer than six i boys and ten girls annually, and in J plentiful years twenty boys and thirty | girls kidnaped from Assam. These 1 were the commonest victims. The re- j port states that an attempt to rescue } slaves from sacrifice creates a vicious 1 circle, in which a fantastic price is ! charged for a victim hoarded for a> bigger and more expensive sacrifice. j| The report comes to the conclusion that the only solution appears to be 1 direct government administration of j the tracts where these hideous prac- j tices prevail. !
