ALL OF FAMILY NOT THERE How Many of Spaniard's Daughters Were Missing Had to De L-ft to the Imagination. In Spain, and particularly In Vho province of Andalusia, families are so large that even Theodore Roosevelt would have been appalled. Hamilton ' Fyfe, the. well-known writer, was touring Andalusia on horseback one winter and spent tho night In n fonda near Los Bollches. At dinner over his hominy soup, Mr. Fyfe was amazed to see the multitude of daughters that tho innkeeper pos sessed. "You have a fine, n very fine fam ily of daughters there he said. "Ah, senor," said the Innkeeper, "we've been very unfortunate with our daughters. During a 1917 terral, the chimney fell in and killed all but eleven of them." Both Alike.

But he suddenly lost his complacent smile when his wife retorted: She certainly did. and I was Just as big a fool as Mildred Is now. I wouldn't listen to the advice of my elders." Frequently a chorus girl's success depends tipon her understanding.

The story of the Paisley shawl a specimen, I hear, has Just: been pre senteil to Lady Ronhani-Carter forms one of the shortest and most romantic chapters In the modern history of In dustry, says a writer In the West minster Gazette. Tho manufacture of these beautiful things was begun, reaehed a groat height of prosperity and became extinct In the space of a little over eighty ytnirs. No Paisley shawl has been woven since 1SS0, and none Is likely ever to leave tho looms again. The shawl had Its origin "in the ambition of the Paisley weavers to produce on the loom the amazingly elaborate patterns, woven by the needle, of the Cashmere shawls that had been sent home from tin Kast by Scottish officers and traders to their women folk. The Paisley weavers were notable craftsmen, and they produced a shawl which excelled Its prototype in beauty of design and richhess of color. Their success was the reward of patience, skill, taste and a delicacy of touch which, experts say.ias probably never been equaled before or since in the weaving craft. A common price for ouo of these shawls in the days when they wen not a rarity was $1(M, and they were worn by women of all classes In Scotland except the very poor. Then fashion decreed that the Paisley shawl should no bmger be the mode, and lis fate was seall. Queen Victoria gave the flying Industry a new. but brief, lease of life when she bought seventeen of the famous shawls and wore one at the baptism of the prince who was to become King lMward. RHODESIA "LAND OF OPHIR?" ArcheoloQisto Have Long Contended for and Against Arguments to That Effect. The extensive ruins of ancient forts, temples and gold workings In Rho desia have ben given rise to consider able controversy from time to time, some arehoologlsts contending that they are only four hundred or the hundred years old and others homing that they date back to at least two thousand years before the Christian era, and that Rhodesia was the land of Ophlr, mentioned In the Rible at chapters lx and x of I Kings. It Is noteworthy thai Milton In "Paradise Lost," book II, speaks of the angel Michael leading Adam to a hill of paradise from whose top His eyca might there command wherever stuod City of old or modern fame, from the walls of Cambalu to Sofala (thought Ophlr) to the I realm of ConRo, and Augola, far thest south. The theory has been advanced that If Rhodesia was not actually Ophlr, It was at least the "Havllah" whence the gold of Ophlr was obtained and which was so much In evidence at Solomon's entertainment of the queen of Shoba. If this theory Is correct then Sofala of today would be the site of "Tarshish," the ancient sea port for "Havllah," and the outlet for precious stones, metals and other merchandise, Ophlr being situated in all probability on the southern wast of Arabia and constituting a distribut ing emporium rather than the place of origin of these things. Emaciated Bride Considered Beautiful. Javanese marriage customs include a period of religious instruction for both the bride and the groom. The young man starts his instruction by paying daily visits to the priest of the village, and learning all the com plicated phrases which he will have to utter on the day of his wedding. The pupil is plated in a tank of cold water and stays there submerged up to his chin while the priest bends over him and reads the Koran, the perform ance taking place I n front of the church. The girl begins lor preparations for the great day by several weeks of semi-starvation during which time she takes only sulliclent rice and hot wa ter to sustain life. Recause of this hunger strike enforced by custom, she loses considerable weight, an emaci ated bride being considered a thing of beauty on the Island of Java. De troit News. Where the Shah Sits.

FIIKUD relates a long and compli cated dream of a garden which he proceeds to analyze, making the ap parently innocent vision of the night a series of dream symbols for re pressed animal emotions which got past the dream-censor; that part of our psychic Intelligence which is sup posed by him to play the part cf the late Anthony Comstock In Dreamland disguised as the usual contents of a garden. Put It must be remembered j that Professor Freud is jne of the greatest, if not the greatest, of Euro pean authorities on neurosis, and it is: ; from the dreams of neurotics that he j has drawn the larger part of the ma terial for his dream theories. It would j hardly be fair to interpret the garden j dream of n normal person in the man ner In which Freud Interprets the gar- j den dream of his neurotic patient. In the analysis of another dream in which flowers appear he traces the connection to the fact that the day be fore he had talked with a :uan named Gardner and attended a patient named Flora which appears quite reason able.

When such a mud hole as this Is located in close proximity to n farm er who owns a dredging outlH con sisting of a team of docile mules, it Is worth more to the property than a trans-continental railway. Many n farmer who lives next to one of these quick assets has earned more money yanking deeply Imbedded tourists to some haven of rest than bv anv other form of endeavor.

It used to be the fash ion to repair mud holes with live sod, which stood erect in the road and Im parled a smooth, gliding sensation to people In the back scat. Sod is all right In Its place, but very little of it is used in building speedways. The mud hole commits most of Its crimes in the spring of the year, break ing springs, twisting axles and caus ing people to lose a lot of hard earned religion.

Simply to see a garden in a dream indicates good fortune ahead; if you walk in one it is still better. To take such a stroll Indicates i:.ueh money and one's business will increase. It is a good omen for fanners and sail ors especially, and to the lover it is a sign that he will not only marry tho one he loves but will have all sorts of success in life. Wut If the garden ai pears to be weedy and ruinous the omen is not so good. Havelock Ellis takes a garden as a symbol of the ground he has covered In his book, 'The World of Dreams," .ind says: "I have cultivated, as far as I care to. my garden of dreams, and It scarcely seems to me that It is v. large garden. j And yet every path of It, I sometimes j think, might lead to the heart of the j universe."
