Strange and unusual customs were
discovered by Mr. and Mrs. Martin

cruise among the islands of the South
pacific, and the most extraordinary
things they round are pictured In
"Captured by Cannibals," the final
installment of the Johnson films.

Sailing from one island to another
in the group of New Hebrides, thev

were unacquainted with the peoples
of neighboring Isles, savages who liv
ed under totally different customs,
and who showed distince differences

On one Island they were interested

the marrlagable girls of the tribe par

paint," before the young men of the
tribe, selected for marriage with the
sanction of the medicine men and pre

front teeth knocked out.
They found another race who ex

there was not a physically perfect in

They discovered a tribe who buried

In all the armies In the war disci

men are at a loss to account for It,
but without exception laxity was evi

The San Francisco Chronicle tells
the following experience told by Brig.
Gen. Benjamin Alvord when the latter
was adjutant general of the A. E. F.
The general had been sent by General
1'ershlng to make an Inspection about
Colombey-les-Beiles.
He walked around without getting
the attention the doughboys would
show an officer of his rank. No one
saluted him and no one noticed him.
Once In a while a captain or a major
would snap a salute, but not the en
listed men. It rather riled the general,
who always scrupulously followed
army regulations himself. Finally
when a private passed hlra with a
Cigar In his mouth, and, although look
ing right at him. failed to salute, the
general thought It was time to call a
halt.
"Come here, young fellow," he called.
"Say, what do you do In this camp
when a general officer shows tip?"
"All right, I'll bite, what Is It, old
top?" parried the private.

Pipe Built Like Cornet
A tobacco pipe of unusual design
has been invented by Wnrren Murray
Baechtel of Hngerstnwn, Md. Every
pipe smoker knows that the longer the
stem of his pipe the cooler will be the
smoke. Pipes whh stems a few feet
long have been in u.e In different
countries for many years, but their
awkward length precluded their une
outside of the house. The Inventor of
the pipe circumvented the difficulty hy
coiling the stern of the pipe like the
tube of a cornet or signal horn. The
coils are connected at their lower end
to form a dripping chamber for receiv
ing the saliva which accumulates In
the stem. "Each cnl! has an independ
ent opening into the dripping chamber
and a uerew cap nt the bottom gives
access to It for the removal of the
accumulated saliva. The smoke, In
passing through the colls of the stem,
is drained several times of saliva and
nicotine.

EZRA PROVED TRUE PROPHET
His Prediction That Funeral and Mar
riage Were Before Him Turned
Out to Be Exact
Last week a friend drifted In from
the Old Home Town, now 'JO yearn
back of me. and we had a Rcamm of
gossip about the old acquaintance
which wa soul aailxfylng. Some of
the stories were pathetic, some were
sordid, some were humorous, hut all
of them Illustrated phases of life In a
country town. Perhaps this one about
Ezra was the best.
When I left the Old Home Town
Ezra was the possessor of a wife
whom he had hud for 25 years or
more, snd who was In fairly good
condition, although a little deaf, as
might well be, for no woman ever
talked more fluently or more willingly
than did her husband. For some rea
son she was taken III and died, and
Ezra mourned her for a time, not an
exceedingly long time, snd then he be
gan to take notice and presently mar
ried again.
This wife No. 2 was, of course, a
later model, hut she, too, fefl 111, and
the phylclan advised an operation.
Ezra hired an automobile and went
with her to the hospital, where the
physicians told him that there was lit
tle hope that she would recover. He
went home sorrowfully, and finally he
broke out to the driver In this way:
"Good Ird, I've got to go through It
all again bury this wife and then get
another one!"
And he was a true prophet for
things happened Just as he predicted.

Markings of Horse's Cost
It Is found that there Is a very defi
nite connection between the coat color
of hordes and the frequency with
which white markings occur. Thus
the latter are by far the most com
monly associated with the chestnut
color. And not only are they the most
prevalent In chestnut horses, but It Is
sIko. of course, a well-known fact that
the markings are apt to be more ex
tended In nature In the case of this
color than In thnt of any other. Chest
nut, therefore, apparently possesses
so to speak, a special affinity for these
markings. Ray ranks next as regarda
the degree of frequency with which
white markings appear In horses of
this color, although It comes a good
way behind chestnut In this respect
Then follows brown, while the white
marks are met with less frequently
among black and roan colored horses.
