" .. .. ?Monkey of the Snow Is Native of Central Asia I A specimen of one of the world's srrutttfost animals. tho kin iseti heou. or monkey of the snow," from the mountains of central Asia, is shown by tho Smithsonian Institution This Is one of tho rarest of all mammals In I selentlc collections, says tho Smithsonian Institute Bulletin. This creature, wnose scientific name la Ithlnoplt hecus, has an ogre-llke, short face, ranging In color from green to turquoise, In which ure set very large, bulging eyes and a po|nte<J, upturned nose. Surrounding the face Is a fringe or beard of orange hair. The real of the body la covered with hair six or seven Inches long and varying In color from gold to silver. The monkey lives In the bamboo forests, Just below the line of perpetual snows. It was first discovered more than sixty years ago by the famous French prlest-naturallst, I'ere David, who was told that It frequented the high mountain forests In vast troops. These troops made up of animals about the size of shepherd dogs, spend almost all their time In the trees, living on fruits and tender shoots of bamboo. The monkey la a close relative of tho Iloonuman monkey of India, one of tho sacred animals of that country. Such an animal Is believed to contain the soul of a dead human being. Something of the same sacred character, It Is said, pertains to Its ogrelike relative of the high mountains. Only Larval Stage Moth Destroys Your Clothing "The instinct that makes us all pursue a flying moth Is probably so deeply ingrained that we are not likely to sit 'Still and Ignore it even on learning -^hat, in this stage of its life cycle, the mbth is Incapable of feeding," Dr. "tjHiude Lillingston says In an article on the clothes moth In Ilygela, the Health Magazine. "It Is In the maggot, or larval, stage that the moth destroys our clothes, furs and feathers. There is another reason for regarding the moth in flight as a comparatively harmless creature. It is almost Invariably a male. . . . ."It may be argued, of course, that killing the male must break an essential link In the chain that constitutes the life cycle of the moth, were It not that the female moth Is not strictly monogamous. -. . With two males to every female, the housewife Is not likely to solve her moth problem by running after an Isolated male here and there." 1 Typical Willow-ware The typical willow pattern on chinaware shows a house near a river on which there is a boat; there is an orange tree beyond the house, which Is enclosed on the land side by a wall and fence. There Is a bridge, with a willow tree on one end and the gardener's cottage at the other; In the upper left Is an Island with a cottage. Two tur- J tledoves are conspicuous In the design, j The large house was the home of a ' mandarLn, whoso daughter loved his j former secretary arid often met him ; under the orange tree. Forbidden to j marry, they eloped first to the garden- i er's cottage, later to the Island cottage | where they lived many years. A former lover of the girl discovered them and set fire to the cottage, whereupon the two were transformed into turtledoves. The legfend has not been traced back farther than 1849, when it appeared In an English magazine, and there Is no proof that It Is of Chinese origin. Bird> Fly High Migrating birds travel at heights of , three, four, and gven five thousand feet. ; It appears that they rise in order to find favorable winds. Wild ducks, geese, and swans have been seen a mile high, but as a rule prefer to tly at about two thousand feet. The vulture j and the turkey buzzard hang up at four to five thousand feet, watching the earth for carrion with their telescopic eyes. The record belongs to the giant condor of the Andes which tlies in the ; thin cold air five miles above the i plains.?Tit-Bits Magazine. I I Earth's Hardest Bump The hardest. recorded . bump this earth ever received came from a meteorite or comet which crashed Into a Siberian forest on June 30, 1908. The mass weighed about 40,000 tons and the explosive violence of Its Impact felled all trees within a 35-mlle circle, a total of 80,000.000 trees in an area of 3,850 square miles. The air waves even reached Washington, D. C., and pictures were taken In Scotland at midnight on July 2 by the light of Its fiery dust.?Collier's Weekly. World's Largest Palace The Vatican In Home, the residence of the pope, Is credited as being the largest and most magnificent palace In the world. It Is said to contain about 11,000 apartments of varying sizes, eight grand staircases and 200 smaller ones, and 20 courtyards. Its collections of objets d art and mnnuscrlpts are counted as. the most famous In the universe.?Pearson's Weekly.

Thirteen Counties Ban Fishing Kershaw county fishermen who make u habit each summer of going to the Low Country after the elusive red breust and oilier fish should inuke note of (huge count lea in that part of the Htato which. have dosed seasons ou fishing. According to u news story sent out from Columbia closed fishing seasons were declared or extended in thirteen Houth Carolina counties lust Monday by the stale game warden at the request of the delegations from these I counties: I The counties were in all Instances j in tire lower part of the state, where a drought hus dried up many lesser streams and has lowered the water I level of others. J Two counties, Colleton and Dorchester, will observe closed seasons i beginning July 7, und continuing to August 8. | Williamsburg, which declared a pro ' hlbition on ungling May 24, planned to continue it until July 22. McCormiek county halted fishing June 29 until August 27, the longest of the closed seasons. j Orangeburg county will suspend until August 1. Seven other counties extended or put closed seasons into ! effect to continue until July 31. They i i are: Sumter, Marion, Horry, George, town, Florence, Dillon and Darlington. Three women took county offices in Fairfield county ou July first. They are Mrs. Mamie Stevenson, county auditor, who was re-elected; Mrs. Sue Davis, county treasurer, and MTHPauline Williams, the newly elected county superintendent of education. Mrs. Williams succeeds W. W. Turner, who held this office for about 12 | years. Mrs. Davis succeeds her fath; er, Daniel Hall, who had been treasurer for the last 15 years, he having retired on account of poor health. | . !_ ! Mrs. Birdie L. Walker was killed, her brother seriously injured and another brother thrown clear and uninjured when their car was wrecked near Huntsville, Ala. ?? ,1 Farm Diets Need | To Be Improved CletnsoD, July d.?"Many records of farm family (lima lit the 1'UMlmont section of South Carolina wen* found to provide less than the standard amount of one or more of the nutritive elements,1' says Miss Ada Mutter, research specialist in homo economics of the South Carolina' Experiment Statlon. Tltis statement Miss Moser makes in connection with iter study entitled, "Farm Family Diets in the South Carolina Piedmont," published as Circular 53. , This circular is buHod on the study reported in detail in Station Uulletin 300, "Food Consumption and Use of Time for Food Work Among Farm Families in the Soutli Carolina Piedmont." "A shortage of iron was the most frequent deficiency found in white family diets and the deficiency was common in summer because fewer leafy greens, less sorghum syrup, and less lean meat were used thuu at other seasons," Miss Moser poiuts out. For improving the nutritional value of farm family diets Miss Moser recommends; More milk should be produced for home consumption. A quart per person per day is not too much. Whole corn meal and or whole wheat flour should form a jood share of the grain products used. Vegetables and fruits the year remind more than pay their way in improved nutrition. A good share of the sugars should be In the form of sorghum (or cane) syrup, especially in low-cost diets where eggs, lean meat, and vegetables are not plentiful. Some eggs and lean meat should be Included If possible. A well planned food production program is the best way to secure these improvements. Accidental deaths from all sorts of causes totaled more than 225 over the country on July 4th, the largest number being credited to the automobile, the total being 83, with hundreds of others suffering injuries. Deaths from fireworks accidents reported numbered but four.
