♦ »
Cleopatra’s Home
Italian archeologists believe they
have found the location of a sump
tuous palace occupied by Cleopatra
during her two-year residence in
Rome, from 48 B. C. to 46 B. C.
Excavations along the banks of the
Tiber near the Port of the River,
six miles from Rome, have uncov
ered remains of several buildings,
including wall frescoes and remains
or mosaic flooring, together with
fragments of statues and sculptures.
The spot has been identified as the
location of the famous “Horti Cae
sarts” where the glamorous queen
made her home and where she en
tertained Marc Antony.
Mohammed’s Favorite Wife
The favorite wife of Mohammed
was Ayeshah, who married the
prophet when she was only nine
years old. She was so greatly be
loved that he often said she would
be the first of his wives to whom
the gates of paradise would be
opened. Historians say that to the
charms of her beauty she added a
knowledge of mathematics, rhetoric
and music. In his last illness Mo
hammed requested to be carried to
her house and died in her arms.
Civil War Stamps
Present-day Christmas seals and
tuberculosis stamps had forerunners
in the Sanitary Fair stamps of the
Civil war. Funds were raised in
Cleveland for the assistance of sol
diers w’ounded in the Civil war by
the sale of stamps in 1861. Similar
fairs, at which stamps were sold,
were held in Chicago, New York,
Albany, Boston. Stamford and else
where. ,
Mass Population Movements
Prior to the Nineteenth century,
important migratory movements
were due to mass expulsion, says a
study of “Population and Peace,”
published bf the Columbia Univer
sity Press. About a quarter of a
million Huguenots left France after
1685, and as many as 20,000,000 Af
ricans were transported to the New
world.
Short-Wave Radio Hani
Stanley Beliveau. Yakima, Wash.,
an amateur short-wave radio opera
tor, estimates he has made more
than 13.000 contacts with “hams”
in foreign countries. He has con
firmation cards or letters from more
than 5.000 of them. Recently he
reached another operator at Stan
leyville, deep in west central Africa.
Deciphering Secret Codes
Col. George Fabyan. the cipher
expert, at one time made the state
ment: “I have yet to find a mes
sage in secret code that cannot be
read.” He said that the biliteral ci
pher invented some 300 years ago
by Sir Francis Bacon is the most
dangerous because capable of being
most infinitely varied.
Moccasins to England
Fondness of American colonists
for Indian moccasins caused the es
tablishment of an industry in Amer
ica to export the footwear. As early
as 1650. moccasins were being
shipped to England and many col
onists learned to prefer the native
styles to English-made shoes and
boots.
Out to Lunch
“Cooley,” a German shepherd dog
owned by Luther Durham, Camp
belisviile. Ky.. according to the
American Magazine, collects his
daily lunch from a restaurant in
a basket and carries it home before
eating it.
Hotel for Dogs
George Merritt of Ontario, Ore.,
as a side line to his regular hotel,
has a hotel for dogs, says the Amer
ican Magazine. Each dog has his
private quarters and reservations
are made in advance.
Eating Protective Foods
Today people eat more ot the pro
tective foods, such as milk, green
leafy vegetables, tomatoes and cit
rus fruits, than they did 50 years
ago. says the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
Sweet Potato Starch
Sweet potatoes are becoming im
portant as a source of starch, which
in addition to usual applications can
be made to yield a desirable sirup,
says “liiiitixtrial and Engineering
Chemistry.”
So What?
There are no bears in Africa, no
Eskimos in Iceland, no movies in
Nepal, no railroads in Albania, and
no icebergs in the North PaciAc
ocean, reveals Collier s.
Youth Is Tough
Klaas Moos, 105-vear-old Nfcgro at
Carnarvon, South Africa, suffered
only abrasions when a motor car
struck him and ran over both hig
legs.
Primitive Japanese Race
The hairy Aims of Japan are a
primitive iace occupying a position
comnarable to that of the Indian in
America.
