‘Magic Power Ascribed
>to Chinaman’s Picture
On the: doors of Chinese houses, in
early summer, are pasted pictures of
Chang Tao-lin, the ‘first Taoist pope,
riding on a tiger, Says a writer in the
New York Times. Probably there are
50,000,000 such pictures so displayed
and worshiped during the year, for
Chang is stipposed to repress evil
spirits and to ward off calamity and
sickness in the hot months. On the
“fifth day of the fifth moon”—usually
early in June—when most of the pictures are pasted up, the children are
dressed in cheap, ‘tigerlike suits of
clothes to keep off the demons, who
fear tigers.
Chang Tao-lin fs ‘said to have been
born on Tien Moh San (Heavenlyeye mountain) in the year 85 A. D.
‘He was asked to be an official = bat
chose rather to meditate in silence
and to cultivate virtue. He went to
live in China’s western hills and there
was shown, by a book given to him.
from: above, how to find the elixir of
life, and from other ancient books how
to ascend into heaven, how to fly and
how to walk among the stars. . With
these and other magic powers he could

) eas, and rule. the winds.
Scotch Freebooter Made
“Hero of Song and Story
Rob -Roy (Robert McGregor or
Campbell), Scotch legendary hero, was
born in Buchanan parist Scotland,
1671; died at Balquhidder December
’ 28, 1784. He was the younger -son of
Donald McGregor, a lieutenant colonel .
in the army of James IL He got his
mame Roy from his red hair, and
jadopted Campbell as his: surname.
hatter the accession of William III he
obtained a commission from James II,
and in 1691 made a descent ‘on StirHugshire.In 1712 he was evicted and
outlawed on a charge of embezzlement,
He became a Highland freebooter, and
was included in the act of attainder.
Under the protection of the duke of
Argyll he continued to levy blackmail
on the Scottish gentry. He is the subJect of.a novel by Sir Walter Scott,
published in 1818; of an opera by
Flotow (1832) and of several plays—
Washington Star.
Two Advantages
The house agent decided that he
had better be quite frank with his
latest clients.
“Of. course,” he began, “this house
has one or two drawbacks which I
feel I must mention. It is bounded
on the north by the gas works, on
the south by an india-rubber works,
on the east by a vinegar factory, and
in the west there fs a glue-boiling establishment.”
‘Great Scott!” gasped the husband.
“Fancy showing us such a place. What
a neighborhood !”
“Quite so,” replied the agent. “But
there are advantages. The rent is
cheap, and you can always tell which
way the wind is blowing!”
Italian Language
The modern Italian language is developed from the Latin. The earliest
definite traces of Italian Speech may
be found in a document of Monte Cas,sino, dated 960. Tucan, and especially
Florentine, has been the classical Literary language almost from the begin:
ning of the national Hterature. During the first half of the Thirteenth
century the mass of lyrical poetry was
produced by the Sicilian school at
‘Palermo at the court of the Emperor
Frederick I. In the second half of
the century the seat of lyrical poetry
was transferred to Tuscany. The modern Italian Mterary language, however,
is founded on the Florentine dialect,
which was the language of Dante.

Ghastly Trophies
The Jivaran tribes, a group of Indians, living at the eastern base of the
Andes in Ecuador and the. adjacent
parts of Peru, practice the art of
shrinking human heads. These shrunken human heads, called tsantas in the
native Jivaran tongue, are often seen
in museums, The head, after being
taken from an enemy, is carefully
skinned, sewed up in the back and
_then shrunk and dried by an elaborate process accompanied by much
ceremony. The finished Product, -no
larger than the head of a small mon‘key, preserves the human expression,

7 Napoleon’s Josephine
Josephine was too indifferent fora
mistress, too volatile for a wife; but
as the companion of Napoleon she
played her part well. As Mr. Wilson
suggests, there was something tinselly in each. There was also something /enigmatical in each, so that if
he often seemed indeed a Caesar,
she often appeared a careless,
Latin divinity. She was courageous,
gentle, soothing and tender,” like
@ great lady; she was also a sobbing,
frightened creature, charged with the
scents and tales of a tropic night.—

Spain is a tempting country for
the motorist. There are hundreds of
