FOR A BRIDE'S LUNCHEON
For the occasion either before or
after the nuptials, there Is nothing !
which the hostess j
can afford which !
will be too much
trouble. For the
beginning tha fol
lowing cocktail will
be most dainty.
Cupid's Cocktail.

Custom of Challenge
by Gauntlet Kept Up
Tossing gauntlets to the ground In
challenge was not nearly so common
la the old days as some novelists
would have us think. In the first days
of chain armor, there were no gaunt
lets at all. The hand was protected
by a mitten attached to the alecv.
When gauntleta did begin to appear, In
the days of the Fourth and Fifth cru
sades, they were cumbersome things
which were strapped to the wrist so
(Irmly that issuing a challenge by
means of them would be more of a
Job than a hot-headed kulght would
care to undertake.
It was not until plnte armor had
reached Its full glory that the gaunt
let became symbolic of challenge. And
It has rarely been anything else but
a symbol. Kven today, there Is a per
sonage In F.ngland the king champion-
whose duty It Is to cast a glove
In Westminster abbey during the cere
monies attendant upon the coronation
of a king, and to cry loudly his will
ingness to flght any man who denies
the new king's title. Popular Biog
raphy. Unfortunate Sea Lions
The sea Hon could hold his own
against his natural enemies, but his
real troubles began when man dis
covered that he was Insulated with
several Inches of oll-bearlng blubber
and that his hide made good leather.
Nearly 200 yenrs ago the slaughter be
gan on the west coast, says Nature
Magazine.
Thousands of sea lions died for the
enrichment of the oil hunters, until
by the beginning of this century only
a remnant of the vast herds which
once ronred and fought on their off
shore rookeries Is left to carry on the
species.
Beware of Cloied Garage
Carbon monoxide Is a colorless,
odorless and tasteless gas, these prop
erties making It all the more danger
ous. A very small percentage of this
gas In the air when Inhaled Is said to
he sufficient to cause death within a
few minutes, under certain conditions,
as when a car Is left running In a
closed garage.
Roundhoute Solarium
Constructed like a roundhouse so
that It catches the sun's rays from
all angles, a combined solarium and
fresh-nir pavilion has been built for
a tuberculosis sanitarium In Hungary.
The center Is glass enclosed for pro
tection from the elements. The build
ing Is two stories high with porches
for patients on each floor.

Work of Rehabilitation
Once old shoes functioned better
iban any other articles to cast after
wed'llngers to bring them good luck.
Those days for disabled shoes are
gone. Now they are turned Into per
fumery by a byproducts company of
Los Angeles.
Four and a half million wornnut
shoes of the Angelenos are converted
Into chemlcDls annually. And 3TA'
ofa.OOO more are Imported from other
parts of the country.
We have met some old shoes yet
In service that would seem to baffle
any perfume muker. It must take
considerable reformation and de
bunking for them to qualify.
New Orleans has been the port of
old rags from F.urope for a long time
and we can grnsp the process that
makes thern Into paper. It Is within
our understanding to conceive how
an old wreck of a car may he
smashed by trip hammers Into bales
of old Iron for the furnace. It does
stretch the Imagination to bear that
superannuated flyswatters, passe
alarm clocks, umbrella frames and
old bed springs may be transmuted
Into something worth while. How
ever, It Is not without the range of
thought
I'.ut the possibilities In old shoes
makes us ready to believe almost
anything. We are now beginning to
dream that some one will find a
place In the economy of things for
Juywalkers, politicians and neckers.
Hope for every frazzled old bum Is
born. Ixs Angeles Times.
Blood of Many Races
on Island of Corsica
A corkless perfume bottle where
the sweet scent of the maquls shrub
permeates the atmosphere; where
men are lazy and women's heads vie
with donkey carts as transports;
where modern customs have only
trickled a short distance beyond the
quays of the larger ports and left
the pancake hats, and the stone and
mud huts of the natives as tbey were
centuries ago.
Such Is Corsica, France's largest
Mediterranean Island possession,
which the French government Is for
tifying, says a bulletin of the Na
tional Geographic society.
Corsica Is about one-half the size
of Massachusetts an area of rugged
mountains and verdant valleys peo

Inhabitant human remnants of

Roman, Vandal, Goth, Plsan, Gen

Triumph of Engineering
A triumph of engineering and con
struction has Just been completed In
the Federated Malay states for the
Perak River flydroelectric Co. The
work, which was started In 1928, re
quired the expenditure of 1725,000
and many and great difficulties had
to be overcome, such as the clearing
of tne Jungle before erecting the
transmission towers. The project In
cludes the Installation of more than
700 miles of copper wire, a complete
telephone system and COO steel tow
ers. Slightly Sardonic
"Tour audience cheered you for
nearly half an hour," remarked the
admiring friend.
"Tea," replied Senator Sorghum.
"Audiences are getting pretty wise.
They'd rather listen to themselves
cheer than to the average speech."
