Washington Explorer Finds Strange Cave Men W SHI NGTON. --Caves hewn in the solid rocks of sugarloaf mountains, sometimes to the depth of 150 feet, large enoueh to hold from 1,500 to 2,000 people. Men who think nothing of running 40 and 50 miles a day without taking a drink of water.
People who never set eyes on fruits or vegetables. Towns of 5.000 to 6,000 inhabi-
- tants, in which there is not a building, the people living in holes in the earth. A land of no shadows between 8 a. m. and 5 D. m.
t A nation In which women are
never seen. These are some of the wonders described by Prank Edward Johnson.
the explorer and lecturer and contributing editor of the National Geographic Magazine, who arrived in Washington after an ab: erjce of almost two years, spent among the troglodyte tribes of southern Tunisia. Mr. Johnson gave out his first interview since his return to the I'nited States, after reporting to the National Geographic society in Washington While in Tunisia Mr. Johnson conducted extensive researches among the buried Roman cities, and tn.ced the old Roman thways, which have been hidden for centuries by the shifting sands of the Sahara. He succeeded in following for .'500 miles the route of the road that was built from Carthage to Leptis Magna and to Alexandria nearly two thousand years ago "On the trip just concluded," said Mr. Johnson. ' I came into a more intimate contact with the innermost lives of the peoples of th extreme southern Tunisia than ever before, and I had an unequaled opportunity to Study them at closer range than any foreignei has ever enjoyed. There are probably more than one hundred thousand of these people in a section hitherto supposed to be almost uninhabitable. They arc pursuing an exceedingly primitive life. "All the troglodyte strongholds are difficult of approach. Their warriors could see the enemy approaching for many miles, unless they came by night, and then the zigzag path that led up to tho -rpat walls, worn smooth by centuries of hard use, with a surface like polished marble, was too dangerous, for a stumble meant sudden death on the rocks hundreds of feet below. It is difficult even for the mountain goats born and bred there "

THE INSPIRATION OF THE FINE
INSPIRATION OF ARTS.
(By HENRY AUGUSTUS BUCHTEL, Chancellor University of Denver. Former Governor of Colorado.)
Capital Folk Scramble for Rent-Free Houses TfcflHUra a scramble on among several hundred Washingtonians for rentfree houses during the summer months in the city's most exclusive residential districts. Few people outside the capital realize that there are in
this city scores of beautiful and costly homes which are turned over to caretakers, sometimes without rent, and with col, gas and electric light bills paid. On MMM occasions, even, caretakers are paid a nominal sum to live In the houses. Now is the season when these caretakers are the busiest. Those who have had these positions in the past are the most active and they besiege almost daily the various real estate
offices in the city. For this business 1s one of the hardest Vor real estate men to look after. In the first place they must be able to judge character "on the jump" and be able to pick men and women who would be capable and honest. Then after selecting the names of applicants the agents have to investigate their standing and trustworthiness. In the selection of the tenants widows almost always have first Choice. A good widow with children is always regarded as the best caretaker. While the occupation of caretaker grew up originally when Washingtonians left the city for the summer it has extended to another branch now that of furnished houses for sale or rent. For instance, if a public official who has lived here several years suddenly becomes a "lame duck ' and moves "back to the farm" his Washington home is for sale. Often it is difficult to sell the place immediately or even to rent it. As a result a caretaker is selected. This party is von possession of the house, hut is required to keep It in tip-top condition and to show it to prospective buyers.
"Tu- Bible is the flower of all '.he world's books; the softest ptllow for the aching head, tJtie best balm for the broken heart; it brings heaven down to earth; It lifts earth up to heaven." Robert Stuart MacArthur, LL I)., President Baptist World Alliance. Our modern life has been enriched in a notable way through the fine arts. All men and wom
en and children, educated and uneducated, rich and poor, have been cheered and refreshed by the glory of architecture, the delicacy of sculpture, the refinement of painting and the thrilling rapture of music. All the artists have been stirred into a tumult of thought, and feeling by the revelations of the Bible. When the archi
tect wished to express his deep conceptions of the worship of God, he lifted his vaulted ceiling into the air and pushed his twin spires up as high as they could possibly be carried. Not only was the cathedral made in the form of the cross, but every part of the building is rich
in the symbolism of form and number I
and wOlor. It was no wonder that Thorwaldsen wept after he had finished his Christus, tho most glorious marble ri the world, because he found himself unable to think of anything more godlike. No man of refinement can keep his hat on while standing before that colossal figure. The painters have the same themes. Consider Raphael with his "Transfiguration" and his "Sistine Madonna," Leonardo with his "Last Supper," Angelo with his "Last Judgment," Guido with his "Ecce Homo," and Muriilo with his "Immaculate Conception." How monotonous and utterly barren would be the music of the world without the Bible. Ä Handel has been de-
proofs of this, bat they suggest th greater fact that it is not the guide book of human life that its great circulation would seem to imply. The real test of any book is what effect it has upon, first, the thinking, and then the living of those who read It. The Bible is emphatically a book which, if read with open mind, must profoundly change the meaning and purpose of one's life. It is tme that there is more Bible reading and study, especially of an organized kind, today than ever before. There are more men and women than at any other time who really do love mercy and do justly and walk in this world as sons and daughters of God and brothers and sisters; but it is equally true thaf. if the actual number of Bibles published this year were read and studied as they might be, there would be such an increase in the number of these who are living right as would transform our civilization. Of course the practical question for

tfge use of the service arm. A lone step in the right direction was taken by the present congress when it enacted a law. through a paragraph in the army appropriation bill, authority for the war department to issue rifles and ammunition free to certain civilians "It is a fundamental principle of national defense that citizens should be trained in the use of the service arm. Rifle instruction is the keynote of national defense of Switzerland. If we wert- to train our citizens in the name proportion as that small republic, we would have about 3.000.000 trained civilian expert riflemen.
