FIRST USED IN CIVIL WAR fdea of Divisional Insignia Is Credited to General Joseph Hocker—Were - Worn as Cap Omaments. “The divisional ipsignis, which was bailed as something of s novelty when it was introduced in the A. E. F., did pot stand for an entirely new idea In uniform decorstions for an American army,” says the Home Sector, the exsoldiers’ weekly. » “Gen. - Joseph Hooker—'Fighting Joe'—whose record In another American war fought sixty years ago has not been entirely submerged In the vast history that grew out of that war, had concelved the same linsignia idea, and the men of the regiments. fighting under him In the Civil war put on a distinctive emblem and thereby established n fushfon that was adopted by all the Union forces. - The idea did not die with. the Civil war, for in the Span-ish-American war also American soidiers wore distiictive emblems to show what organlzation they belonged to. : La “The divisional insignia as worn by the A. E. F. was new, however, in the detalls of its wearing, for the soldiers of. the Civil war and of the Spanish‘Americin war did not wear cloth patches on the left shoulder. The fighting men of the Civil war wore their emblems—made of metal, - with cloth centers—as cap ornaments. The soldiers of the Spanish-American war displayed their own - organization marks—of enameled metal with a clasp backing—pinned to thelr left breast just above the pocket flap.” FINE POINT IN DRAW POKER Would a Gentleman Take a Pot on a ' Hand That Was Not ‘ . Dealt to Him? Coats off, shirtsleeves rolled up, and sopping handkerchlefs bound tightly round their brows, Bloodthirsty Bill, Cheater Charlie, Daredevil Dick, the dealer, and Slasher Sam sat in solemn conciave round the table, playing a furious game of poker. - ; - Stakes and excitement ran high. Fach man seemed to 114 a tiptop hand, and none would relinquish the betting. At last time came for the hands to be exposed. : “Four twos!" shrieked Bloodthirsty BillL e . L ' - “Four threes!™ - shouted = Cheater Charlte. = ' “Strajght flush!” roared Daredevil Dick, the dealer. ' : “Royal flush!” screeched Slasher Sam. o L Daredevil Dick, the dealer, was staggered, : L “Take it, Sam, if you've got the nerve,” he muttered; “but you know it's not the hand I dealt you.”—London Tit-Bits. . - . World’s Races Divided. Amphiscians are the peoplé¢ who In‘habit the tropics, whose shadows In one part of the year are cast to the north and in the other to the south, according as the sun is north or south of their zenith. , - . The antisclans are the {nhabitants of the earth living on different sides of the equator, whose shadows at noon are cast in contrary directions. Those living north of the equator are antisclans to those living south of that line, and vice versa. The shadows on one side are cast toward the north and upon the other toward the south. The asclans are the people who live In a land where, at a certaln time of each year, they have no shadows at noon. All the inhabitants of the torrid zone are ascians, they having a vertical sun twice a year. : ' The perisclans are the inhabitants of the polar circle, whase shadows during some portions of the summer must in the course of the day move entirely around and fall toward every point of the compass. ‘-

| Island of Crete “Upending.” In the course of a discussion on the subject of Crete at. the Royal Geographical soclety, Prof. L. J. Myres de scribed two. remarkable changes of ground level that have occurred there since classical times, says the Scientific American. The whole island has swung upon an axis, the eastern half sinking and the western rising, so that whereas at Hlerapetras and Spinalonga the anclent quays and harbor works are now under water, the little Greek harbor of Phalasarna, at the west end of the island, is now totally upheaved, so that one can walk about on the floor of the ancient harbor, upraised and dry.

Chinese Engineers Hate Toil.

In no branch of modern progress has China advanced during the last twenty years more than in engineering, if we except, perhaps, medicine. The Chinese engineer has come to stay. He is a much-criticized person, and, the principal objection the up-to-date modern engineer offers against him is that he refuses to undergo the long and tedious period of training necessary in any branch of engineering today: if he can become an engineer without soiling his hands or taking off his coat, he is quite willing to pose as having mastered engineering; but he objects to the toil and the dirty work. - :
