Artcicr.'s Used Bells
for Various Purposes
The ue of sintill belli to sumuiou
attendants goes hack over 8,000 years.
Assyrian tombs, uncovered from the
ruins and dust of apes, show that
hand bells not unlike our conventional
Fliapes. were used In old-time Nineveh.

Danger in Depilatories
The use of depilatories, required
much by the current mode, may be
attended by con-dderiilile dancer. Dr.
IL A, Mc;uigin and H. N. Kts, of the
University of Illinois Medical school,
bare found that barium sulphide, the
essential constituent of hair-removing
preparations, will cause serious re
sults In rahldts If a targe enough area
f the skin Is covered with the chem
ical. When a rabbit's ears were cov
ered with a psste containing .VI per
cent barium sulphide, enongh was ab
sorbed, said the eTtieriiiienters, to kill
the animal. Inth Is caused, they
believe, by the formation of hydrogen
sulphide, a gas that produce more
or less toxic effects on human things.
The gaa was detected In the animal's
breath.
Marries, Recovers Memory
Ju.t after his marriage to an Eng
lish girl recently. Uuhriel Henri
Remon, a Frenchman, learned, after
many years, his identity, lost as a re
sult of Hie World war. Twelve year
ago, Cnhrlel, then thirteen, ran In ter
ror when the (iermah troops rwlo Into
Mor'lncourt. his home village. He
trainiM-d to Calais, and was put on a
ship for England. The vessel was
blown -up by n mine, and. he was
wounded and rescued. He lauded at
Folkestone, w here he lost his memory,
worked for M.2." u week, was "adopt
ed" by a milkman, and now has a po
sition with a wine firm In Uuulon.
When he married It was ni-eesssry to
communicate with the French consul,
who learned sufficient details of his
life to hrlng back th man's memory
completely.
Say It With Stories
"It you want a child to remember
anything, say it with stories," suggests
Ir. John I. Elliott of the Ethical Cul
ture school of New York city. In Chil
dren, the Magazine for Parents. In
an article In the magazine Doctor El
liott writes: "Notice the next fine
you are In an aud'-nre. When i. It
that every one lsv:!l. when for a mo
ment tin) speaker ' ;'f his hearers,
when there Is a i I tlio'igh unc .n
scion unity? Nine nut of len it
will be when he l ii 'l'oa a story re
citing some Incident. Why ilo olio .
people nub to Hie thciiters and the
oldest and youngest to movies? Simply
to see or hear a story. If you regret
that the movies have such a strong
hold on your child, give him smoothing
of the uti;v tiling at home."

CHANCE IN ROUTE
TO MAIDEN'S HEART
Writer Po'nts to Rist of
"New S :x Democracy."
The Judgmei,! of time bus been that
It Is an ei...itly- difficult problem
for men and women to umlerstund
each other. The mule has on Innu
merable occiio.ous acknowledged his
Inability to fathom the workings of
the female mind, and this doubtful
compliment has In many. Instance
been r turned. 'No longer, It la aid,
la this sentiment mutual. The mod
em girl understands men.
Tlds disclosure comes from the pen
of Mrs. J. Itorden Harrlman. who In
a magiisaie article consider the
change that have transformed the
roumiillc period Into the flapper age.
Chief among these cause, she says, I
that men are uo longer able to fool
girls. The day of Mattery, she be
lieves, bus passed, and dashing cava
liers "tail, dur mm handsome," no
longer fill the heroic role In a young
maid's fancy.
Instead, the writer finds a "new sex
democracy," which has brought an era
of comradeship in which young people
"take eHch other as they are and not
as they believe they are," nnd r'rls no
hnger fall In lo'-e wli'i the Itna.v, only
to come eventually to the day of great
d.sillusloninelit
A girl now bus some bund In the
jholce o.' Iter husband, If she does not
determine upon the' man and thea
prm-eed to make blm her.
There will be men who will not
i.gree readily with Hie author. Many
there are who w ill he louth to ubiindou
he soft-turned phrase on the road to
a maiden's heart The language of
'overs date too far back to be lightly
dismissed when spring Is In lb air,
the moon Is full and two young heart
register a mutual Impulse. The day'
outward show Is more brusque limn
demonstrative, but It doe not tell tire
whole dory.
Nor will all men and women agree
thut the day has but Just arrived when
the muid refuse to sit Idly by a th
man for whom her lieart ha waited
Uinlly come Into her orbit. Maybe
oday the chase Is more direct and lui
letuous, but there were ways lu other
iuy. and who know but Ibey were
moie effective. The "way of a man
with a maid" I no more puullng than
ihe wuy of a maid with a man from
he beginning of time.
