Ancient Cuban Tiles for American Homes Curio dealers of Havana are acquiring old Spanish art tiles to su the demand in the United Staics. As each old house is torn down, the bidding for its art tiling is active, althongh theré is nearly a 90 per cent loss in breakage—the tiles bhaving been so long cemented to the walls that they have become as briftle as ‘porcolain, ~ The Spaniards and Cubans have always been fond of riling, and their residences are often fiuced with geometric designs in vivid colors, strongly reminiscent of the Moorish influenceé on Spanish art. The tiles may represent hunfing and marine scenes, mountain vistas, battles, sieges and religious subjects. One set depicts important passages from the Bible and gives the text from which they are taken. These tiles were taken from Holland by the Spaniards during their occupation eof the Netherlands, and after several centuries’ use in =a house in Madrid ecrossed the. Atlantic to Bavana. ;
American visitors to Havana purchase, besides the tiles, much Spanish bronze, copper and heaten brassware. Cuba was at one time rich in such curios, but the supply has been practically exhausted, so that the dealers now spend their summers in Europe to renew their stock. Spanish glassware is another fad of the visitors. The older pieces offered for sale are extremely beautiful. When Carlos 111 ruled Spain he imported hundreds of glass workers from the Capa di Monti factory at Naples. and the delicate producits of these crafismen is today highly valued.—New York Times.
How Policerici: Came
by Nickname “Copper”’
Afrer a century or se of suppression in’ London the story has leaked out—how a policeman came to be called a Ycopper” or “cop? "T'was evening, ah, bitter chill it was, and the policeman was courting 4 cook. He was devouring a feast of pie and ogling his buxom durling when lier misiress was heard approaching. “'lde! ’ide!” was her smothered ecry of dismay. He hid in the only refuge he could see—the huge copper laundry viat. Alass! It seemed the mistress had come to order the fire lighted beneath that very vat, that she might have some hot water. Forced to comply. the cook soon saw her brave lover leap out and with one tense backward look of reproach, vapish into the nicht,
Azes ago that lover fled into the storm. but still the ghost of his seared romance follows him and he must answer to the name of “copper,”
Big Handicap
The woman was playing golf one falr day, and, although her score was assuming alarming proportions, her enjoyment of the sunny weather and the invigorating exercise kept her from becoming quite too downcast. . “Well,” 'she confided to her companion, as she- trudged off into the rough after a particularly poor drive, “1 understand thére’s a woman at the club who has a handicap of 80. I shall have to took her up.” This remark geemed to make a profound impression en the caddy, who. against all regulations, contributed his ideas on the subject. : “Holy smoke!” he eried, “she must play in de tousands!"--New York sun. ! :
Magisterial Wisdom
When calle@ upon recently to settle a quarre! between two Jewish women, a London magistrate handed a copy of the Bible to. the official interpreter. sayving: “Take these women out of court and read them the One Hundred Thirty-third Psalm. One of the women has only a limited knowledze of English. Translate it for her into Yiddish.” Later, the interpreter returned@ te court and reported that the magistrate’s scheme had been entirely successful. The first sentencé of the psalm reads: “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for breth: ren to dwell together in unity.”
The Cynical Flounder
Wisdom may not be in the depths, but enough things are there to keep wise mep thinking deeply, ang mil lions of men at work, preparing potash and ammonia; drying sea weeds. to use among other things for decora tion, on the Japanese New Year, as an American uses holly on his. We think of paper made from kelp anda of mattresses stuffed with eel grass, Of glue and of Irish moss, “used as an ingredient in kalscmines, shoe stains. shaving soaps and cosmetics.” accord ing to Dr. Donald K. Tressler, author ity on such things,
American Birds
By far the most abundant birds in the United States are the robin and the English sparrow, but several oth ers are common enough to make their total numbers run well into the mil lions, The counts so far show that the most ahundant bird on farms in the northeastern states is the robin Next to this is the English sparrow. and following these are the song spar row, chipping sparrow, meadow lark and catbird, in the order named. :

' Odd Mixture Made of f Business and Religion l In uptown New York there is a . nezro chureh in which attending seryices is an all-day affair on Sundays. The congregation spends from eight to ten hours in the house of prayer, and meals and social circles interlard sermons and Bible classes, Perhaps the most practical feature of the weekly gathering has to do with business. Mombers of the flock are invited to pass along their special wants to the pasior and he ia Lurn proclaims them from the pulpit. Thus, if one has a piano or a parlor set for sale it may be described as allaringly as desired, the price mentioned and the name and address of the “brother” or ‘“sister” broadeast. If one wants a job or a boarder the rdomlls are set forth in the same manner. Receutly a case of theft was ?hflndh\d as follows:
“M:uh dear brothers an’ sistern, Mis’ Amanda Rose Abernathy has lost her beautitul pearl brooch—at Yeast she likes to think it were lost, but she know the devil often find things for folks what ain’t lost—so if any of you bave found it, in such eventuality please return it to the lawful owner thereof. An’ to save embarrassments and humiliations I would suggest that the finder of the lovely brooch put it in de little eollection envelope.”—New York Sunday Times,
“Singing” Mud Rivers ' Alter Andes Skyline One of the most interesting features of the Andes, the great backbone of cordilleras coveriug the northern part of South America, says Nature Magazine, is its “singing” rivers of maud. During certain seasons of the year rain falls in torrents, converting the foothills of the mountains into actual streams of flowing gumbo, and so rapidly is this evosion oceurring, the whole outline of a chain of mountains may become unrecognizable in the course of a year. The higher cordilleras, with altitudes of 10,000 to 12,000 feet, are being washed down at the rate of five feet or more a year, and it is believed that in a few centuries the Andes will be leveled and formed into vast plateaus like the hinterland of Patagonia. =
The mountains are composed, for the most part, of glacial moraine, a mixture of powdered rock and clay. The winter rains carry this alluvial material down the valleys in a semiliquid state and form vast plains, Tt gurgles with a musical sound lke poured molasses.
Flour From Corn
Corn flour is corn meal ground and bolted until it is as fine as wheat four. It ig used .in considerable quantities by bakers and as a binder in sausage making. During the World war it was widely sold as a wheat flour substitute for use in quick breads, cakes and general cooking, but it is not ordinarily found on the vretail market. Some of ‘the pancake flours on the market contain corn flour or fine corn meal, wsually mixed with flour made of wheat, ryve, barley or other cereals. In England the term corn flour refers to the separated starch, which In this country is called cornstarch and which is used for thickening sauces and puddings.
Lunch Away From Home
© Married men of FEibar, a Spanish town of 10,000 inhabitants, never go home for lunch. They have a local proverb which says it is unlucky if men lunch at bome more than twice in their lives—on the day of their marriage and on the day of their death. Every man in Eibar. therefore, lunches at a restaurant or at the faetory or shop where he is employed. It is believed the fact that most of the women work away from home during the day has given rise to the proverb, :
Pudding Is “Detoured”
The mister had a boyish babit of visiting the pantry after the cook’s departure and devouring all surplus sweets. One morning after a night’s invasion of the pantry the cook asked her mistress: . “What you all want for dessert for dinnah?”’ : “1 think the date pudding left from yesterday will be suflicient for today,” said the thrifty wif . “That pudding’s been detoured by that meddlin’ husband,” was their ritatéd reply.—lndianapolis News.
Roberta Knew
Roberta, aged four, had been told by her grandmother she would wear her tongue out, if she did net stop talking" so much! Coming in one day from playing, the child excitedly tola her grandmother that she had just seen a woman swho had worn her tongue out. ; - Grandmother asked her how she could tell and she said: “The woman was talkif® on her fingers.” Grandmother figured out that the little girl had seen some deaf and dumb persons.—lndianapolis News.
Fat Men Stand Heat Best
Fat men can stand high tempera tures better than thin ones, according to tests made by the bureau of mines. The fat men lost more weight but were less exhausted after the experiments were over, says Popular Mechanies Magazine. The trials revealed that high pulse rate rather than the mere fincrease in bodily temperature is the important factor that brings discomfort under high heat and humidity.
