Make Nightly Climb
to Rocky Stronghold
What la believed to be the oldest
town in America is Acoma, situated
on top of a great rock that stands
350 feet above the surrounding coun
try in New Mexico. It was in exist
ence 300 years ago when the first
Spanish missionaries came into the
country. Acoma is the most pic
turesque of the three pueblos of the
Laguna Indians visited by the party
of Jesse L. Nusbaum, archeologist,
and described by Deric Nusbaum, the
scientist’s son, in St. Nicholas Maga
zine. Clinging to their ancestors’ dis
trust of all strangers, the Indians re
fuse to give up the ancestral defense
afforded by the barely accessible rock.
In the valley below, at the foot of the
rock, they stable the horses with
which they work their farms, but
every human habitation is reached by
the 350-foot climb up steep steps cut
into the rock The village itself is
made up of two streets of stone and
clay houses two and three stories
high, the upper floors being reached
by ladders from the lower All of
the building materials, even the great
wooden beams of the church, one of
the oldest of the Spanish missions,
have been carried up on human pack
trains after having been transported
across the country for distances as
great as 20 miles.
“Father of Medicine”
V/as Well Grounded
Hippocrates gets his name carved
on the friezes of libraries as the fa
ther of medicine, but probably few
who see It there realize the great ex
tent of his knowledge of that science
or the cycle that the practice of med
icine has traveled in the 2.302 years
since the famous Greek died.
His general ideas are those held by
the most advanced medical men to
day. He placed a strong reliance on
the recuperative powers of the body
to eliminate or overcome disorders
even of the serious kind if aided by
proper regimen and improved environ
merit. With this was coupled an
equally strong disinclination to inter
fere with the normal functions of
the organism hy the administration of
drugs.
Thus, his prescriptions often or
dered merely a change of climate, or
an altered ir limited diet, or the se
curing of conditions that would pro
vide absolute quiet and long hours of
sleep. Frequent bathing of the entire
body, sometimes In cold, and at others
in warm or hot water, was also a
favorite method adopted, it is held
probable that this sensible system
brought him the high reputation ac
corded him by contemporaries.—Kan
sas City Star.
Shocking!
He entered the newspaper office in
a manner that suggested murder. He
reached the counter and took a news
paper from an inner pocket.
“I was intensely shocked this morn
Ing to read in this wretched journal
an Intimation of my engagement.” he
said.
The clerk behind the counter looked
at him with some concern.
“I am almost beside myself with
rage,” the agitated man went on. ”1
cannot tell you how angry I am. I
am worried. My fiancee is worried.
C am dreadfully annoyed. My fiancee
is dreadfully annoyed. We are all an
noyed. Give me 50 copies of the pa
per."
Easy Way to Clean Silver
Put a teaspoonful of salt and a like
amount of soda In a new aluminum
pan and pour boiling water over them.
Place your tarnished silver in the
solution. When the tarnish is re
moved, wash and dry with a soft cloth
This method will not injure the sli
ver, which Is cleaned as thoroughly
as by hard rubbing and is not
scratched as it may be when pastes or
powders are used. This method leaves
the silver with a soft dull finish
which can be heightened to a high
polish by rubbing with a chamois or
soft cloth and the use of silver paste.
—Capper's Farmer.
Thought and Conduct
The right thought has much to do
with the right conduct, and If one
thinks and acts kindly in life to otli
erg he creates that personality which
speaks of a nobility that cannot be
surpassed. There are many today
who have bitter recollections that
they might have done so much better
toward their fellow creatures If at the
moment they had thought differently,
and our brother who apparently re
grets some of the past has still time
to ease a troubled conscience.—East
I-ondon Observer.
Out of Her Depth
The popular preacher had excelled
himself, and the congregation were
discussing his sermon as they left tile
church.
“Wasn't that a fine sermon?” said
one woman admirer to her com
panion.
“Yes,” said the other; “but did you
understand it all?”
“Understand it!” replied the first
"Oh, no. I wouldn’t presume to on
derstand such a great preacher.”
Why Dog Fleet.
“It’s a wouder Mrs. Axelfrltz doesn’t
understand why her dog doesn’t like
to sit on her lap while she eats,” ob
serves Grandma Matson. “No self-re
spectin’ dog likes to be used for s
napkin Karin and Fireside.
