The young lady's name is now Mrs. George Ruby, but her name was Mary Aurelin and she lived in California, Pa., when the scalping took place It didn't stop the young lady from getting married, but that is another story. THIS Now, if Mary had been scalped by Indians some hundred years ago In the Keystone state it wouldn't have made a ripple in the papers, and certainly wouldn't have made the Adventurers' club. So many Pennsylvanians were getting scalped in those days that oiily the hairdressers noticed it. And, by the way, speaking of scalping, who do you suppose started that custom? We've been taking it for granted that the Indians did, because they developed it into a fine art But, as a matter of fact and I hope Bob Ripley, the "Believe-lt-or-Not- " man, reads this the white settlers started scalping! Tes, sir, I think you'll find that the savage Indians never thought of s until the palefaces showed them how. And here's why the gathering whites did it In the days when the Indians outnumbered the whites, It was as much as your life was worth to take a stroll in the evening. If you did you were almost certain to come back or not come back with a couple of arrows sticking out of your hide. And they weren't always Cupid's arrows, either. They were d shafts of wood that hurt. wide-hatte- blood-curdlin- d g top-knot- 1 , flint-heade- White Men Gave Indians the Scalping Idea. Well, sir, the Powers That Were decided that it would be a good idea to offer a cash bounty for every Indian killed, and made it worth a man's time to go Indian hunting. Now, to collect that bounty when . you killed an Indian, you had to bring positive proof of the demise. At first the hunters toted in the whole body of the Indian, but that got to be a nuisance. So, finally, they hit on the Idea of bringing in the scalp only for proof. The scheme worked. The authorities paid off. And that's how scalping started. Afterwards it turned into a boomerang against the whites, Just as the Introduction of poison gas in the World war by the Germans brought more gas back into their own ranks because the prevailing winds blew toward Germany. So now let's get back to Mary's scalping. Mary was scalped by a savage electric wringer! red-man- 's When Long Hair Didn't Stay Very Long. electric washing She was doing the family washing in an machine when It happened.

Buckingham palace was not planned as a dwelling place for Britain's kings, observes a writer Id the New York Times. It became a royal residence by accident rather than by design, in 1609 James I decided to try bis hand at producing silkworms, which were thought to have possibilities In commerce. So be set aside some ground near Westminster for the planting of mulberry trees, upon which silkworms feed. The plan failed, but the ground had become established as a garden, which later became a place for public entertainment and remained a fashionable resort until after the Restoration. The first house known to have been built on part of the site of the present palace was Goring bouse, named after Lord Goring. It was later burned and Lord Arlington, who purchased it from Lord Goring's son, built another. This was bought by the duke of Bucking ham, who later pulled it down and built a house of brick and stone In Dutch design, called Buckingham house. Buckingham bouse first came into royal hands when George III In 17C1 bought it for 20,000 from Sir Charles Sheffield (a natural son of Buckingham's) and moved there from St. James' palace. An act of parliament settled the palace on Queen Charlotte In 1775, and It was then known as the Queen's Palace. George IV had Nash rebuild almost the whole of it LA.
