Code Employed for Telegram in China Tle transmission and receipt of tele-grams in China Is not so easy as la western countries, because the Chinese language lacks an alphabet and ex-presses itself by characters and signs that represent words. In consequence, (or purposes of telegraphing, an exact list has been made of signs in quan-tity sufficient for ordinary correspond-ence, and to each of the signs a differ-ent number Is given which is transmit-ted by the Morse telegraphic system. The code consists of 0,800 ciphers, the whole forming a pamphlet of 49 pages, each one of which contains ten series of 20 characters with its correspond-ing number. On receipt of a telegram the operator looks up In his book the characters represented by the numbers transmitted by the apparatus and transcribes them Into legible Chinese. Washington Sunday Star. Few Person Really Capable of Thoaghl Psycho! arlatt say that only Ave per-sona out of every hundred realty ttiLnk. The others emote. In order to get anything across to ninety-liv- e out of one hundred of us, says Harry Dan-iel in Thrift Magazine, you must sock us In the Jaw, lam us over the bead, Jab us In the ribs, pull our hair or tickle our nores with a feather. These may seem like cruel words but no one will feel hurt over them because all of us belong to the group of five. The group of ninety-flv- e who can't think are all the other fellows. In our opinion the correct wuy to divide the one hundred would be as follows: Number who think they think, one; number who think nobody else thinks, ninety-nine- ; grand totul of those who are wrong, one hundred. There Is much false glnmor about the grandeur of pure Intelleetuallsm. Wo doubt If many of the wonders ol the prespnt dny would bnve come about If It bud not been for people who have fait more than they have thought All members of the group of rive will now pleuse stand up and pnort at this observation. Let us con tinue to have plenty of feeling, laugh ter und thrills, tears nnrl Indignation suspense and rewarded bravery. With out these, life would ba dull as an udding machine.

Catalina Island Yields Many Ancient Treasures Avalon, Santa Catalina Island, Caf An attempt to follow ancient trails to the long-los- t island temple of Chlnlgchlnlch, the Sun God, bus re-sulted instead in the discovery of the burial place of a small Indian prin-cess of 8,000 years ago and evidence Indicating that child sacrifices were made In wholesale fashion by tribes of the Channel islands, off the coast of California. Within a stone nrn weighing 134 pounds and fashioned skillfully as though by modern tools was found the skeleton of an Indian girl en five and seven years. Her hands apparently had clutched the rim of an urn, whose rich ornamenta-tion of wumpuin bespeaks her royal lineage. In a circle with the urn as a cen-ter were counted by Prof. Ralph Glld-de- n, curator of the Catalina museum of Channel Island Indians, the skele-tons of 64 children burled in tiers four deep with small heads touching each other. Beneath them was the skeleton of a seven-foo- t man. A spear blade still was fixed In the ribs. The sand within the funeral urn had the appearance of ground crystal apparently, according to the dlscov-ere- r, a sacred sand used In the burial of Indinn royalty and was far dif-ferent from that which bad sifted over the graves of the other children. These finds as well as a wealth of obsidian knives, spear points and ar-row heads and hundreds of other ar-ticles of wampum-Inlai- d stone and bone have provided material over which Glldden has puzzled since he discovered them. One thin piece of slate be believes to be a stone map, holes having been drilled to Indicate trails to the four main burying grounds on Santa Cata-lina Island. "It Is plausible." Glldden said, "that the strange child burial within the urn and those surrounding It were the result of a natural death of a little girl of high rank and the slay- - Ing of C4 attendants and playmates t with her. Or they all may have been killed tn some religious ceremonial rite. "It Is even possible the princess may have been given some potion and bur-led alive. The way the small hands clutched the outer rim of the bowl makes this a possibility." Wampum Inlaid In four broken circles on the rim of the urn with "gates" leading to the four points of the compass lend Glldden to believe the burial place mny be near the site V of the temple of Chlnlgchlnlch. Giant Ant Bear Of all the denizens of the tropical forests of Central and South America the giant ant benr is probably the most dangerous. It Is said to be too stupid to know fear. Its thick skin and dense stiff hair render it almost Impervious to ordinary shot It Is re-markably tenacious of life, and Its six-Inc- h curved clnws at the tips of sinewy limbs, which enn swing In any direction and are literally universal Jointed, are terrible weapons. No other animal,' according to Mr. Hyatt Verrill, the well-know- . big game hunter, willingly attacks the ant benr, and while the creature cannot move rapidly for any distance, and Is usually content to mind his own affairs and devote bis life to hipping up ants. It becomes positively Insane with rage when disturbed or wounded.

Grit Die-Har- ds Perhaps no fresh water fish Is more tenacious of life than the bullhead or horned pout This fish takes a long time to die outside Its native elements. Bullheads may still be detected breath-ing In the bottom of a punt hours aft-er they have been caught whereas most fish die In a few minutes. Many fishermen have thrown bullheads on the ground at night to discover in the morning that they still show a flicker of life. Idea Is American The custom of Jockeys riding In running races with their saddles across the horses' withers waa Inaug-urated about the beginning of this century. American Jockeys were re-sponsible for It It was some time be-fore English turfmen became recon-ciled to it, but It was demonstrated that riding forward did give the horse thus ridden a slight advsptage, and such saddling Is now the general prac-tice. Batter Stored for Winter The Department of Agriculture saya that for bulter, to be stored for win-ter use, pasteurized sweet cream should be used, churned at a low tem-perature and the butter washed so that It will be firm and waxy.
