LOOKING WITH FAVOR ON ART

Public Hastens to'Attach Respectabßity to Favorites, Despite ThehVarious Shortcomings The public always tries to make its favorites respectable, those it truly loves. It longs to make them more like itself. It delights to read'of happy family life among its beloved artists, and of the pure summers of the movie star who lives with her mother and has a garden, observes the New Republic. The course of Mar/ Anderson comforted and justified thousands of housewives for their mild domesticities and their distrust of the stage. Even the public’s favorite romancer lived with his wife three years before he married her, and he did not oven suffer from a wasting illness; but they will not have it so, and are fast turning him into a pitiful, cheery saint and martyr as fiat and sweet as their own ideals. The favorite short story writer embezzled and went to the penitentiary and loved poker, but they want to make him an overflowing human heart wandering about taking snap-shots. They have spent more time raking over and clearing up the records of Goethe and Poe and Byron and Shelley than they ever spent on the poems.

During a certain period the republic of Rome did'not pay taxes. The third Macedonian war resulted in victory for the Romans and brought to an end the ancient kingdom of Macedonia in 168 B. C., In describing the triumph accorded the victorious Roman general it is related that the celebration continued for three days. On the first day 250 wagons carried the statutes and paintings which had been plundered from Macedonian cities. On the next day there passed many wagons, carrying Macedonian standards and armor, followed by 3,000 men loaded with tlm silver money and silver plate which had been secured in the booty. On the third day came a procession of men carrying gold spoil, followed by the conqueror in a splendid chariot. Rome so filled her, coffers with treasure by this plunder that the republic never thereafter taxed her citizens. Thus, while the statement is historically true, the fact that there was no taxation in the ancient Roman republic for a period of several years is not at all creditable to the Romans, for the condition was the result of plunder Instead of the economical administration of public affairs.

Largest Snakes in Brazil.

The largest snakes known are found in Brazil, and one would have to go far Inio the Interior to find them. They are found in the Immense valley of the Amazon river and its tributaries, observes a naturalist. This extensive basin, being low ground, consists partly of swamps and forest jungle, into which white men seldom penetrate. The forest and vegetation are so dense that the sun cannot get through to the ground, and being right under the equator, the continual, oppressive, moist heat makes this jungle and swamps the ideal breeding place for the big snakes and other reptiles. However, of the 180 varieties of snakes known r in Brazil, not 10 per cent are venomous, and of these very few of the big ones. Of the non-ven-omous ones the largest and the bestknown is the boa constrictor. .

A New Costa Rican fiber plant has beeu developed through selection and cultivation by M. Peralta of San Jose, and Is alleged to produce more and stronger fiber than henequen or sisal? A consular report states that the fiber is made into rope, twine, mats, bags, and even finer articles. The spineless leaf is 9 to 12 feet long, and each plant averages 30 leaves a year, yielding two pounds of fiber. With about 600 plants to the acre, cane, beans, potatoes, or, corn can be grown on the same land. Full growth, 1» reached lu five years, but cuttings—two a year—may begin two after planting the shoots.

HOW TO REDUCE High Cost of Living During These War Tinies—What Every Woman i Can Do. Look over your old clothes. You , can never appreciate how much you can .brighten and freshen up your wardrobe until you use Dy-O-La Dye.

Dy-O-La is the modern dye made by skilled chemists who have removed all the difficulty from home dyeing in order that you may get perfect results.

' Take some garment that you have grown tired of or that you desire to color the fashionable shade of the moment, look over Dy-O-La Dye color chart at your nearest druggist or storekeeper, select the one that pleases, and follow the printed directions. They will look ds if they had just come from the dressmaker. And remember —the colors will be just as fast and durable as they are beautiful. They won’t rub off or bleach out. Buy it of your nearest druggist or storekeeper, but if they have not the color you. want we will send it to you on receipt of ten cents and at the same time include direction book and color chart. Dy-O-La Dye is made in Black, Blue, Navy Blue, Brown, Seal Brown, Light Green, Dark Green, Scarlet, Yellow, Orange, Cardinal Red, Pink, Purple, Dark Wine, Old Gold, Turkey Red, and from these sixteen colors a great variety of other shades and colors can be made.
