GOVERNMENT GUIDE BOOK FOR MOTORISTS SHOWS U. S. BEAUTIES
(By Associated Press) I WASHINGTON, Oct. 27. Although It is not generally known that Uncle Sam Is In the guide book business, one of the most Interesting guides to motorist routes throughout the "Golden West," is that recently published by the United States geological survey. The great -variety of mountain scenery to be found in Colorado and the panoramas of the plateaus and deserts of Utah, Is the theme of the latest addition to the series which the geological survey has been publishing at In
tervals snce 1915. Specifically, the
route described follows that of the
Denver and Rio Grande Western rail
road from Denver to Salt Lake City.
The guide book, which may be ottained at the department for one dollar, not only treats of the scenecy, re-
, sources and the human activities of
the region traversed, but explains the
forms of the mountain plains and can
yons alopg the route, bow they have
been developed by the ancient terrea trial forces. Gives Good Description
It describes the rock strata which
underly the country and which have
controlled the forms of the landscape
Many of the beds of these rocks are most Interesting, for they contain the
remains of strange animals, now extinct, that roamed the country ages ago. The skeletons of great monsters have been unearthed in many place3 along the route, and even their tracks, preserved In sandstone, have been found. The rocks also contain the metalliferous ores that have made Colorado and Utah famous the world over and have added untold millions of dollars to the country's wealth. The guidebook gives Interesting expositions ot these rocks and precious minerals, described by mineralogists and geologists. The history ot the mining dis-
tricts passed along the route forms one
of the most fascinating and adventur oua chapters In the country's own his
lory. The most Interesting of the old
camps described is possibly Leadvlu where great wealth In lead, ellver, gold and zinc was produced.

ONCE SOLD TOBACCO
FOR MEDICAL USE
Old-time apothecaries in England
used to sell tor medicinal purposes not
only strong wines but also tobacco
John Archer, physician-in-Ordinary to Charks II. kept apothecaries' shops in
various parts, of London, and sold to
bacco at all of them. Archer advised
his patients to smoke, holding that "tobacco purifies the air from infec
tious malignancy by Its fragrancy,
nweetens the breath, strengthens the brain and memory, and revives the right to admiration." He charged two shillings an ounce for his- tobacco,
which was supposed to possess special virtues, "to be perceived after taking one pipe." Oddly enough, in 1877, when readymade Virginia cigarets were first placsd on the London market, 'the apothecaries reverted to, their old practice of selling tobacco. The ordinary tobacconists would not stock hese cigarets, thinking there would be no sale for them, so the -London agent of the American firm which exported them offered to pay the cost of a tobacconist's license for every chemist who undertook to stock his wares. They caught on so well with smokers that the tobacconists were soon compelled to stock them, and eventually the chemists found it not worth their while to do so. '
MINERS FEAR FIRE; SELDOM CAN ESCAPE (Prom Adventure Magazine) Nothing is so much dreaded by the miner as fire. When millions of tons of rock begin . to : settle down he is not frightened. - He goes among them whey they are being splintered in aii directions and are cracking like pistols. One reason why a fire in a mine Is
so much dreaded is because there are
so few avenues of scape open to the miners. Probably there is but a single shaft if the mine is connected wifi no other and up this, a thousand or fifteen hundred feet, or more he muse go to escape. . In case of a fire there liable to be a panic. A panic in a church or other buildings on the surface is a terrible
thing;, then what must be a panic in a mine where there are eight hundred or a thousand men perhaps, all to go up a single shaft a thousand feet ot more, a cageload at a time? At such times, too, there are explosions of gases which extinguish all of the lights, and the men rushing to and fro are exposed to danger of tumbling headlong into scores of pitfalls in the
shape of chutes, winzes and other excavations. All ot these things being often in the miner's mind give him a wonderful delicacy of nostril. He can scent a
fire from afar. He knows the smell of burning fuse, of giant powder, of black powder and ot everything with
which fire ordinarily comes in con
tact in a mine, and the scent of thes
Is no more noticed than is noticed the
air he breathes on the surface of the
earth; but let any unusual substance
be ignited and, like the hunted stag, his nose is in the air at once. 7 1 German Nitrogen Output Exceeds Pre-War Figures
(By Associated Press) BERLIN, Oct. 27. Germany is producing 85 per cent more nitrogen now than in the pre-war years. The output this year is expected to reach 340,000 tons. This fact was revealed in a statement Issued by Dr. August Mueller, a former member of the cabinet and one of Germany's most prominent Socialists, criticising Prussia's proposal for wholesale deliveries of Chilean
salt petre.
Australia has more than 60 species
of snakes, many venemous.
The door slowly opened and thereentered the emperor of Mongolia, the living Buddha, his holiness Bogdo Djebtsung Damba - Hutuktu, khan ot Outer Mongolia. He was a stout old
man with a heavy, 6haven lace, ana he was dressed in the yellow silken
Moneolian coat with black binding.
The eyes of the blind man were wide oijen.
During my stay in urga l visuea me
abode of the living Buddha several
times. His favorite learned maram-
bas gave me long accounts of him
Thft lamas were very frank with me,
because the ring given to me when I
visited the friendly Hutuktu of Narabanchl, who is highly esteemed in Mongolia and Tibet, won for me their
confidence. The living Buddha has a double per
sonality. He is clever, penetrating,
energetic, but at the same time he in
dulEes in the drunkenness that has
broueht on blindness. When he be
came blind, the lamas were thrown
into a state of desperation. Some of them maintained that ' Bogdo Kahn
must be poisoned and another incar
nate Buddha set in his place; while the others pointed out the great merits
of the pontiff in the eyes of Mongol
ians and the followers of the yeuow faith. Propitiate Gods They finally decided to propitiate the gods by building a great temple with a gigantic statue of Buddha. He never ceases to ponder upon the problems and well being of the church and of Mongolia and at the same time he indulges himself with useless trifles. A retired Russian officer presented him with two old guns, for which the donor received the title "Tumbaiir Hun" "Prince Dear-to-my-Heart." On holidays these cannon were fired to the great amusement of the blind man.
"Motor cars, gramophones, telephones, crystals, porcelains, pictures, perfumes, musical Instruments, rare
animals and birds, elephants, Himal
ayan bears, monkeys, Indian snakes and parrots all these were collected
in the palace ot the. "God." but all were soon cast aside arid forgotten.
The. blind pontiff is regarded with
the deepest reverence. Before him all fall n their faces. Khans and hutuk-
tus approach him on their knees. A
drunken blind man, listening to the banal arias of the gramophone or frightening his servants with an elec
tric current trom his dynamo a fero
cious old fellow poisoning his political enemies, a lama keeping his -people in
aarsness ana aeceiving them with his
propnecies and fortune-telling he is, however, not an entirely ordinary person.

HOW BUTLER FAMILY
ACQUIRED ITS NAME
From the Detroit News. ' The cale of the Marquis' of Ormonde, which was occupied by the Irish Republicans and ' was besieged and captured by the forces of the provisional government, is, next to the cathedral, the most important place in Kilkenny. It occupies the summit of a precipice over the Nore, and was
built originally by Strongbow, Earl of
Pembroke. The castle was destroyed by fire in 1175. and was rebuilt by William Marshall, who had married Strongbow's daughter. Since then, the Ormondes, by many restorations and additions, have maintained it as a princely residence. The Marquis is descended from Theobald Fitrwalter, who accompanied Henry II Into Ireland and was created chief butler in 1177. His successor assumbed " the ' title of Le Botilier, which grew into the family name of Butler, and the present Marquis has among his many titles of
honor-that of -"Twenty-seventh Hsrsd itary - Chiof Butler, of Ireland." One quarter of his arms shows three cov, ered cups, indicating his occupation as butler. One of his mottoes Is "Bat ler a boo," or "Butler Forever." ,
