THE MONITOR, JULY 5, 1922
FIT MATE FOR DARING OUTLAW
L!ald Mkriofr by No' Mean the Least
Valued Member of Robin Hood's
Brave Band. - :
; Belonging o that, shadowy, band of
characters who hover somewhere , In
the borderland between faet and fic
tion. Maid Marlon and Robin Hood,
whimsical, charming, picturesque peo
pie of medieval England, deserve a
chapter in the history of happy lovers.
Marlon was a beautiful, graceful lit
tle maid, loving the erranf Robin with
all her youthful heart. . She helped
him In his self-appointed task of rob
bing the rich to aid the poor, and was
a thorough little out-of-doors creature.
No forest hardships were too much
for her. She excelled In archery, was
a fleet runner and, In fact, was splen
did in every form of sport.
But Marlon's family, so the story
goes, objected to her, union with the
country-wide reprobate, an,d every ef
fort was made to force her to wed a
middle-aged, man whom she did not
love.
However, the Jolly band of Robin's
followers, by employing their ever
ready wits, succeeded In foiling pa
rental plans. Robin Hood and maid
Marlon lived together in the woods
many happy years, known always as
the enemies of the rich and selfish
anu the friends of the poor and needy.
BRINGING BOARDERS TO TIME
Woman Employs Gossip as a Medium
1 for Getting Delinquents to Set
!; tie Their Bills. 1 .
Many and various are tie schemes
employed by boarding house keepers to
spur collections from delinquent board
ers. The latest Is to take .gossiping,
the boarders' own jnost popular indoor
sport, and use it against them.
"Easiest thing in the world," de
clared an exponent of tlie new system.
"All you have to do Is spread the
news, You Just weave ft Into the con
versation off-hand like that ain't it a
shame poor Mr. Brown is having such
hard luck and his wife so brave, too.
r "'He owes me for three weeks
now,' you say. 'Not that I'd press
him for It. But he must be kind of
hard put to be, hanging up a poor
widow like me.'
"That's enough. Whoever I tell tells
It to some one else. She tells some
one else. Soon It's all over the house,
and In time It gets back to Brown.
That usually brings him around. Few
persons can stand it to be talked
about." New York Sun. ,
Improbable Story Beginnings.
Vladamintch noticed the excellent
diction of the street car conductors in
announcing the stations.
When Shamalback pulled up at, the
garage he found the prices had not
been arbitrarily raised because he was
a tourist.
The maid opened the door and Cora
lia entered with the umbrella she had
borrowed the week before.
Before Ann Chovie left for Holly
wood to take1 up film work she openly
admitted she was not as good as some
of the stars and therefore, never ex-"
pected to reach stardom. -
Our hero fhad sent . a copy of the
latest book of his favorite author to
the writer himself, asking that it, be
autographed. The simple request was
complied with and the book promptly
returned. New York Sun.
Webster's Lost Opportunity.
Daniel Webster, expounder of the
Constitution, great senator and. elo
quent orator, had set his heart on be
coming chief magistrate of the Ameri
can republic. All efforts to secure
the presidential nomination proved
abortive. He could have had the
nomination for the vice presidency in
1840 by simply indicating his willing
ness to accept. Disdainfully he brushed
the suggestion aside. He considered
himself above playing second fiddle
with William Henry Harrison. Had
he been equipped with more self-abnegation
than haughtiness he would have
accepted, and had he done so he would
have become President April 8, 1841,
an even month after the inauguration
of Tippecanoe and Tyler, too, "as a
result of Harrison's death.
Animals Blush.
Poets have for ages regarded the
blush as a thing of beauty in the
gentle sex; but, after all, it Is only
a rush of blood to the face, caused by
modesty or some other emotion. An
imals blush, too, we are told, but
through fear. Horses blush In their
ears, especially the left one. When
a horse is frightened his left ear will
be found to be" very much swollen.
This Is also the case with rabbits.
Cows and similar animals blush Just
above the hoof while the dog uses his
tail for this purpose. When a dog is
frightened his tall hangs limp, as he
has lost all control over it. Even in
sects are said to blush. They do It
in their antennae, or feelers.
When Lincoln Practiced Law.
Once in the old courthouse at Meta
mora, 111., a prominent citizen of the
town sought Lincoln's advice because
a neighbors pigs were in his cornfield.
Then no one had fences, . and pigs
were privileged property. After lis
tening to the man's grievance, Lincoln
said : "Well, you will have to civilize
both the man and his pigs." Another
leading resident of those early" days
waited until Lincoln was through
speaking to Inquire what he had bet
ter do ' about a. bad debt. Lincoln
asked how much money was at stake,
and upon finding that the sum was
$50 remarked : "Wc Jl. Just throw it at
him. A man can't go through court
tor $50." f .. .
Idea of Canai is Oio '
The project of a canal across the
Isthmus of Panama Is about four bun
dred years old. Balboa and other
Spanish explorers urged such construc
tion before the emperor of Spain, and
male surveys In search of a feasible
line as early as 1525.
China Has Largest Hospital.
The Tung Wan is probably the lar

WHY HER WATCH GOES WRONG
Various Causes .Given for Undoubted
Fact That Woman's Timepiece Is
' .. . ... Generally , Incorrsct. ; j .; u
; Punctuality, Is said to be the virtue
'of kings, "but not of women. The lat
ter will not, however, admit their lack
of k. But when a . lady, has kept a
mere man waiting , for her, lmdefi
nltely long time her excuse, cynics de
clare, Is really at hand : " "My watch
must be wrong." 'And, strange to say,
this reason, given, as an excuse, differ
ent from other. ejKuses, is almost al
ways valid. The watches of women
are ; much less exact than those of
men. ::';' ''. ' . '. ;
An Englishman, Herbert Duke,; who
occupied himself with this problem in
profound speculations, thinks he has
traced It to its source. He has ob
served ' that the same watch, when
worn by his wife, runs; very Irregu
larly, whereas when worn by him it
is perfectly correct. "Now, how Is
it," he asks, "that so many women
have such : a baleful influence on
watches?".- t,-,yv -,. r - .-.-.-
; Certainly much is due to the fact
that to women the "watch is a less
necessary tool of life than a beautiful
adornment; that they care more for
its looking elegant on the wrist than
for its being right;, that they handle
carelessly and inconsiderately this deli
cate apparatus -
- But there must be another more po
tent cause. It has been observed that
the electricity contained in the human
body exerts a direct influence ' on the
delicate mechanism of the watch. It
may be that the small form of a wom
an's watch renders it' very sensitive
to the electro-magnetic influence that
emanates from the body.
SNAKES HAVE LARGE 'UTTERS'
Boa Constrictor in Captivity, Gave
Birth to 'Sixty-Four Living Young
Others Prolific.,
The sixteen-foot Trinidad anaconda,
or water boa, at the London Zoologic
al'gardens, not long ago gave birth to
twenty-four young pnes. The new
born snakes were twenty-six inches
long and about an inch in diameter
at the thickest part .of the body.
In color and marking they resembled
the adults that is, they , were of a
dark greenish hue with black spots.
That number of young had been ex
ceeded by a seventeen-foot snake at
the New York Zoological park, which
produced thirty-four young. Still an
other anaconda has been known ; to
produce thirty-seven at a birth, and a
large specimen of boa constrictor gave
Uirth to sixty-four living young. The
pythons differ from the boas In that
they lay eggs and coil around a heap
of them until they hatch. An official
of the New York Zoo says that vthe
pythons produce from fifty to a hun
dred eggs at a time, and a specimen
of python reticulatus deposited sixty
eggs, about which she coiled, and from
which she fought off all intruders, but
her efforts proved of no avail, for the
eggs were infertile. " . - .
Roosevelt a Bird Lover.
Roosevelt's first appearance in the
editorial columns of a New York news
paper was probably that in the" Eve
ning Post of. February 25, 1878. Roose
velt was then a jsophomore at Har
vard, eighteen years old. The Evening
Post devoted a long editorial to the
question whether the English sparrow
had been a benefit or a pest. It men
tioned a recent discussion of the sub
ject at an ornithological club in Cam
bridge, Mass., saying: "Mr. Theodore
Roosevelt, Jr., of this city, gave the
birds credit for doing some good, but
thou eh t that thev often ate the buds
of fruit trees, and he says that in I
j " a y m '
iiigypt mey are wasierui aevourers oi
grain." In Roosevelt's "An Autobiog
raphy" a good deal Is noted of his
ornithological interests during these
years ; these Interests, of course, per
sisted throughout his life.
Diamond Rivers.
.The geological; formation of the fa
mous diamond region in the state of
Bahia, Brazil, shows , that at some
time In the history Of the world the
mountains there were thrown up by a
hot mass and the carbon in the stone
crystallzed into gems. It was, in ef
fect, an electric furnace-on a gigantic
scale. In Brazilian diamond mining
natural water courses play an impor
tant part. JSVater and the weather
gradually disintegrate the rocks, and
the diamonds are washed down into
gullies and the beds of rivers, whence
they are recovered by the miners. In
some places divers are employed to
work at the bottom of the rivers, fill
ing sacks with silt that contains the
diamonds. The river beds are rich
in precious stones which cannot be ex
tracted advantageously, if. at all, by
the methods now In vogue.
Exercise for Blood Pressure.
Certain vigorous exercises are dis
tinctly, beneficial in most cases of too
high blood pressure. At ' a recent
meeting of the New York Academy of
Medicine Dr. C. Ward Crampton de
scribed his favorite treatment of this
trouble, which Included regular exer
cise. - '
In the earlier stages the following
program was advised : 1. Morning ex
ercise, 12 minutes ; 2. Walk three
quarters of an hour; 3. Vigorous ex
ercise .with sweating three times a
week; 4. In the open half a day.
In advanced cases the exercise
should be milder." Of course, exercise
Is only a part of the general treat
ment, and there are many cases, in
which it should not be given, especial
ly those in which the heart and kid
neys are seriously involved. V '

Old

m
Mansion
Having risen out of the ashes of
Its predecessor, and the predecessor
in turn having risen out of the ashes
of the original Schuyler mansion, the
Revolutionary home of Gen. Philip,
Schuyler stands today at Schuylerville,
N. Y., Just about the ; same as when
the finishing - touches , were placed
upon It by the Continental soldie in
1177. .. . '' v. '

comers, when this place was still Sar
atoga and the springs eleven miles to
the west had not appropriated ,the
name, when there was no railroad and
the old road up the Hudson was still
the natural highway of trade, when
wheat was still taken to Albany on
batteaux.
There is no region in New York
state where the spirit of the past is
maintained as around old Saratoga,
where every turn in the road has its
story, where every old tree is a land
mark, where almost every mound of
ground was once an earthwork, where
the ' magnificent battle monument
pierces the ; sky, where the veriest
school boy can show you the battle
ground where one of the fifteen de
cisive battles of history was fought, a
battle which practically settled the
destiny of the United States.
The region about this lovely Revo
lutionary elm-shaded mansion is rich
In legend. You may . browse around
here and live over the days of two
past centuries, and recreate the wars
of the Indian and redcoat days. You
may see here the skull of the British
spy, Lovelass, with a patriot bullet
hole still in it, where it was dug out
of a gravel bank; you may see the
wine cellar whence Burgoyne drew his
cheer; you may drink from the same
spring where the soldiers of the Revo
lution slaked their thirst while the
battle raged about them; .you may
walk the streets beneath theiwhisper
iner elms, the streets that are still
Ueneral Schuyler's Tomb. ,
peopled with the shades of the fleeing
army in red, the streets that still echo
with the drumbeat of war, the street
through which for more than two cen
turies the tide of American life has
passed to and fro. If you will take
time you may get all this at Schuy
lerville, for the mansion of the Schuy
lers has been a little off the beaten
high-way of traffic all these years, and
legend and story linger under these
elms. . , '
Independence, . '
"Should a physician give his wealtny
patients harmless powders when they
insist on being treated, although he
knows they are quite well, or should
he tell them frankly there is nothing
the -matter with them?" asked the
young, doctor. . " . ; -
"That depends on the financial
status of the physician," said the el
derly doctor. "If he has an income
sufficient for his needs and is not de
pendent oh his practice for a living
he should not only tell such patients
there is nothing the matter with them,
but If he feels in a tacetious mood he
can even afford : to pooh-pooh their
most cherished symptoms." Birming

DEER SMASHES WINDOWS
. IN PENNSYLVANIA CITY
Scranton, Pa. A fuli grown
antlered deer bolted through
some, miles of Scranton's streets
leaving a trail of shattered win
dows and scattered provisions.
Where the animal came from no
one knows, and has apparently.
.returned to the same place.
In its flight through the city
the deer Jumped through a large
: plate glass window in a grocery,
scattering provisions right and
left and making its exit through
a door in the rear. .-
When last seen it was heading
, toward the mountains.

Prometneus.
The word PrometheuSj the name of
a character in Grecian, mythology,
means forethought, and forethought Is
the father of invention. According to
the Grecian tradition, Prometheus
taught man the use of fire, and in
structed him in architecture, astron
omy, mathematics, writing, rearing
cattle, navigation, .medicine, the art
of prophecy, working metal, and, in
deed, every art known to man. The
tale is that he made man of clay,
and, in order to endow ' his clay with j
life, stole fire from heaven and
brought it to earth through a hollow
tube. Zeus, who in Grecian mythol
ogy, corresponded to Jupiter In the
Roman mythology, In punishing Pro
metheus, chained him to a rock, and
sent an eagle to consume his liver
daily. During the night it grew again,
and thus the torment of "Prometheus
was ceaseless, until Hercules "shot the
eagle, and unchained the captive.
What a Boy Thinks of You.
A boy's sheepishness is by no means
a sign of over-mastering reverence:
and, while you are making encourag
ing advances to him under the idea
that he is overwhelmed by a sense of
your age and wisdom, ten to one he
Is thinking you extremely queer. The
only consolation I ' can, suggest to you
is that the Greek boys thought the
same of Aristotle. It Is only when you
have mastered ' a restive horse, or
thrashed a drayman, or hnve got a
gun In your band, that these shy
Juniors feel you to be a truly admir
able and enviable character. Ex-

Sleeping Sickness.
Medical experts disagree In their
conclusions as to the exact nature of
sleeping sickness. Some forms of
"sleeping sickness" are' not unlike
brain fever, while others Indicate
symptoms much similar to spinal
meningitis. Physicians advise caution
against undue exposure to the disease
until more . exact knowledge of Its
cause Is ascertained.
Horse Owners, Attention , .
Imperial Steam Cooked , HorseFeed
is' made of whole corn and oats,- steam cooked and kiln dried. Most horsemen are convinced of three things before they
begin to use Imperial Steam Cooked Horse Feed, its SAFETY, HIGH NUTRITIVE VALUE and its HIGH DIGES
TIBILITY., It is very high in DIGESTIBLE NUTRIMENTS and is surely PRODUCTIVE of: ENERGY and MUS
CLE. INDIGESTION and COLIC are unknown troubles when your -horses are fed on this diet.,- Water less than eight
per cent, fibre less than four per cent, carbohydrates seventy-two per cent. It takes about 2,300 pounds of raw grains to
make a ton of Imperial Steam Cooked Feed which is put up in one hundred pound sacks, running about ore hundred
quarts to the bag. It takes three bags to a horse to give it a fair trial and watch the results. For sale by
