NOT IMPRESSED BY SPHINX
Modern Reporter Refuses to See Any
thing Wonderful In the Lady's
Appearance.
Admitting tlmt "a mouth 7 feet
wide Is not a rosebud, nor an ear 4
feet high a seashell," a modern re
porter In Egypt Is impressed by the
fact tlmt the Sphinx does not seem
nearly so Impressive as he had ex
pected. After all, tlie creature is only
150 feet long and its face only 14 feet
wide ! Perhaps the environment made
a difference, for the Sphinx, ns she
today rests in the sands of the desert,
lins a very different stngc setting from
that of a few years ago. The black
tents of the Kedouln have gone, nnd
their place taken by the white and
khaki tents of the Uritish, pitched
north and west of the Pyramids. Trol
lay cars run to within some hundred
yards of the Sphinx, and automobiles
travel the motoring rond to the base
of the Great Pyramid; from the apex
of the Pyramid of Cheops four long
antennae of a Kritish wireless appa
ratus stretch down to the ground. For
n short time during the troubles In
Egypt the neighborhood of the Sphinx
paw a reversion to lawlessness, and
Bedouins only the other dny swooped
in from the desert and attacked a par
ty of sight-seeing British at the Pyra
mid?!. Dwarfed by the Pyramids the
latest visitor who has recorded his
Impression found the Sphinx "disap
pointing, and decided lhat so far
from having a "cryptic expression,"
her stone countenance has no expres

Red Hair.
A perturbed correspondent of fhe In
dianapolis News raises an interesting
question. Do women, he wishes to
know, shun red-headed men and, If so,
why? Ills own hair Is of the hue
sometimes thoughtlessly and Inaccur
ately described as carrot colored.
Hence the query Is of vital personal
Importance, lie 1ms given the matrl
monlnl quesrlnn "serious considera
tlon." but each time has been met with
discouragement due, he believes, sole
ly to the tinge of his hair. The mat
ter Is one calling for the thoughtful
attention of the philosopher and the
sociologist. If women generally are
frowning on the matrimonial otters of
red-haired men, the future of the race
Is threatened. Was It not a red
haired man who fired the first shot in
the American war against the Hun?
Society cannot afford to lose the red
head temperament because of the per
plexing perversity of marriageable
women. The red-head will be needed
for the next war, or If there Is no
next war, whenever and wliexover
trouble Is brewing.

The "Hop
Scotch" Girl
By GENEVIEVE ULMAR
REPRESENTATIVES AND DEALERS WANTED,
RENULIFE ELECTRIC CO.
3rd Floor Patterson Block, Omaha, Nebr.
(Copyright, Mil. by th. Western News),
paper Union.)
It was n pleasant, lively scono nnd
carried Novll Brookes buck to his early
youth. Seated In n enmfortublo loung
i"K cliulr on tho porch, ho hud it full
view of linlf n dozen little girls en
gaged In the old-fashioned game of
"hop scotch."
Upon the smooth cemont pavement
the group hnd drawn In chalk the con
ventional body of the subdivided dia
gram, rounding It with "the moon," to
attain which, by hopping on one foot
and speeding a Hut pebble without rest
ing on a line was to score t victory.
Suddenly the play suspended
"Oh, there's Marty Donne shu will
show us how to Hip Into the moon!"
nroso In n tumultuous shout.
Hrookcs leaned over toward tho
street to make out n girl of about sev
enteen, exquisitely dulnty In form and
feature with a wealth of sunny golden
hair like an aureole, and lithe and
graceful In all her movements. A
rippling smile Irradiated her lips and
she welcomed the juvenile onslaught
with caressing kindliness.
The delectable Marty's loving nnd
accomodating nature showed fully as
she took her position ut "goal," set
the pebble given her, and proceeded
to demonstrate her capability as a hop
scotch expert. Brookes watched her
with profound admiration.
Just then an overdressed, slatternly
womnn appeared, a great, hulking
young man nt her side. She darted
forward as she made out the girl.
"What's this?" she shouted nt
Marty. "Nice actions for a woman
grown, and promised I"
"Promised?" cried the girl scorn
fully. "Who to?"
"To him, Dan Iteeves," and the wom
nn Indicated her companion.
"Who promised me?" challenged
Marty.
"I did; and didn't he give you a
ring?"
"Yon menn ho forced It on me,"
flared up the girl. "There is his eheap
gift!" nnd tearing a tawdry circlet
from her finger she Hung It to the pave
ment, gave It n blow with her toe, and
ndded : "If he ever tries to kiss me
again I'll kill him, and If you lny
your hands on me I'll run awayl" nnd
like some proud empress, the nroused
girl left the spot, her head high In
the air.
Nevll Brookes was recovering from
a fit of sickness nnd had sought rest
and quiet In the boarding house where
he was pnsslng his convalescence. lie
asked his landlady about the girl who
hnd Interested him.
"Ob, you menn Mnrty Donne," spoke
the woman. "Poor girl ! but good girl.
Her father died, leaving her to the
mercies of a cruel stepmother, who Is
anxious to get rid of her enre nnd
has tried to favor the suit of that
Reeves fellow, but Mnrty despises
him."
There was n little pnrk thnt Brookes
strolled In every morning, nnd the
next dny he was attracted by the
sound of low sobbing heyond some
shrubbery. He went over to the spot.
Upon a bench, a bundle at her feet
and weeping bitterly, wns the hop
scotch girl.
"Are you In trouble. mlssT' spoke
Brookes gently. "I have seen you be
fore, and we live In the same neigh
borhood." Marty read sympathy and Interest
In the clear, open face. "I am going
away from my stepmother ami the
mnn she Is trying to make mo marry,"
she said, "and I . shall never come
back. Oil, sir, Is It very far to
Wlckhnm?"
"Why do you ask that?" Inquired
Nevll.
"Because the only friend I have In
the world lives there. She was Nel
lie Foster, and she mnrrled Ned Wil
ton three years ago, nnd they settled
down nt Wlckhnm. A yenr ngo Nellie
wrote me thnt they hnd a darling little
bnby, and I love children, and I know
that Nellie would give me a homo."
A sudden Impulse urged the tender
hearted Beeves to assist this homeless
waif. Ills own life wns lonely and
her distress niovcd'hlm to pity.
"If you will trust me, I will see you
safely to Wlckham," he said.
"Oh, sir, will you?" cried Marty rap
turously. "I am sure Nellie will pay
you back for the fare."
"Never mind that," said Beeves, nnd
her childish delight looking from the
car window and hopeful eagerness
when they reached Wlckhnm revealed
the untutored soul of tho trustful girl.
They reached the former home of
the Wiltons to find a sign "fnr rent"
on the neat little cottage, and a neigh
bor Informed them that tho family had
moved to a farm "somewhere out
West."
Mnrty dropped to n step, n picture
of forlorn dcspnlr, "Oh," she sobbed,
"wiiat ft life It would have been to
hnve my old fr'-imls, ;tut flic baby, nnd
this beautiful gurden. It would be
like being In heaven! And now I nm
worse off than ever!" nnd she broke
down utterly.
"Look ip In my face, Marty." spoke
Beeves seriously. "I am ns much nlono
In tho world as you are, hut I think
experience a mutual trustfulness. You
crave a home of comfort and happi
ness. Will you share It with me, ns
my wife, right here antl now?"
And Nevll Brookes, with a grateful.
loving life partner smiling nnd singing
nil day long in their little parndUr of
n house, never regretted that lit had
jvedded "the hop Bcttch girl."
NEWSPAPERS DOrff TELL all
As a Matter of Fact, World Must Not
Be Judged by What One May
See In Print
Through all civilized countries folks
spend a lot of their time Just read
ing the pnpers, And it Is nil right,
too. Kverybody rends the papers.
But one must be careful to keep
one's equilibrium nt the same time. We
must not make the mistake of sup
posing that there Is nothing else going
on In the world except that which the
papers print.
The pnpers publish only the news
that Is startling or sensational. Nat
urally, that's all they publish. What
ever Is unusual, out of the ordinary,
something that astonishes one these
things are what tho papers print.
If you were to go Into a newspa
per olllee with an Item, say, about n
man who had reared his family care
fully, sent them to school and hud
paid the mortgage off his home, the
editor wouldn't put that piece In tho
paper because there Is nothing unusual
nbout It.
But If the Item were nbout n mnn
who refused to work to support his
family, and who beat his wife over the
head with n club, nnd who chased them
nil out In the middle of the
night In the ruin, then the editor would
say It was "news."
So, you see, It Is mostly the trou
bles of the world, its seamy side, Itn
crime and sufteiinq and squalor that
get Into the papers.
Yet, there Is the world's other side,
thank Cod Its bright side, Its love
nnd glndness nnd charity and the help
thnt one mnn gives nnother.
Bend the papers, of course. But,
when you rend them do not get the
lden Into your head that the world Is
plunging headlong to perdition, To
cnuso such Is not the case. Utlca,
Globe.
WINGS FOR MRS. VANDERBILT
Soldier Admired Spirit of His Enter-J

Mrs. W. K. Vandorbllt tollsthla story
on herself:
Sh wns doing canteen work In
Frnnee during the recent misunder
standing In thnt vicinity, nnd devoted
considerable time to entertaining
American soldiers In one of the hostess
houses. Being an excellent danrcr
and attractive, she wns In much fle

she danced several times with tall
tow-haired doughboy who showed
symptoms of grent loneliness nnd
tnlked volubly nbout things In Mlchl
gnn.
When the evening wns ndcd, tho
tow-bnircd one enme over to Mrs
Vnnderbllt.
"I've hnd a bully time," he snld
"antl I want to keep truck of you
We're moving out of here tomorrow
for the front. But If we got hnck, I'd
like to look you up over In the Stntes

"I'm Mrs. W. K. Vnnderbllt," she re

Treasure-Trove.
Tobermory Bay Is becoming serl
ously Interesting. The salving npera
t Irms In connection with the Spunlsh
galleon, supposedly the Kloreuclu,
which for three nnd ti half centuries
bus lain a wreck off the coast of the
Isle of Mull, are being brought to the
surfnee nmong them a beautifully
chased silver plate and tho orna
mented bundle of a silver tlngon. In
terest In the operations bus brought
crowds to this pnrt of the Scottish
const nnd neither bed nor hoard Is to
he obtnlned by late comers. Tho dlv
ers have not performed their work
without some sign of protest from sea
dwellers. One of them disturbed re
cently a huge conger nusasurlng some
15 feet. The nnnoynnce of the lyilmal
wns unmlstukable. Treasure-trove Is
undoubtedly now within grasp, hut
dllliculty Is experienced In bringing
the linds whole and uninjured to tho
surface.
The Flylna Era.
Mall-currying airplanes are already
an old story, writes A. Russell Bond,
in "Inventions of the Great Wiir." In
Europe the big bombing machines arc
being used for passenger service be
tween cities. There Is un nlr lino
between Paris and London. The nlr
planes carry from a dozen to as many
ns CO passengers on u single trip. In
some cities here, as well as abrond,
the police are being trained to lly, so
that they can police the heavens when
the public tnkes to wings. Evidently,
the Hying era is here.
