New Rubber Source
Discovered In Africa
CAPETOWN. Sept. 24.-A rich new
source for rubber has been found
beie. It has been discovered that the
African Euphorbia tree yields n sap
or latex of a quality comparable with
that of para rubber.
A South African company has been
organised to exploit a vast Jungle
near East London, said to number
more than 60 million trees. The av-
erage tree yields three pounds of
latex. Attempts at vulcanising art
said to have been quite satisfactory
Stress Is laid on the fact that laboi
is plentiful in the East London dis
trlct and that the region Is free from
fever.

Osage Indians Add
To Enormous Wealth
PONCA CITY. Okla.. Sept 24 —
Osage Indians are getting additional

of gallona of gasoline a day.
It Is estimated that the combined
output of all the Osage county plants
Is In the neighborhood of 300,000 gal-
lons every 24 hopra. This is about
60 tank cars a day with an estimated
value of about $30,000 on the whole-
sale market.

—the boss raises Ned If I recognize

And that night he saw her and did
explain.
“Oh, that’s all right," said Kittle;
“you told me your boss didn’t like you
to recognize anybody when you were
out with him. But he! he!’’—and

Chicago.-If a mosquito bites you
on the face it Isn’t necessary to turn
tho other cheek, hut don’t alap the In-
aect.
That advice was issued, not by the
secretary of any society for preven
tion of cruelty to mosquitoes, hut by
MaJ Edwin M. Skinner, engineer in
charge of mosquito abatement work
for the Gorgaa memorial Institute
He was actuated by no love of In
sects, ho aald but by aympothj with
a much-bitten public.
The engineer explained hla paradox-
ical admonition thus;
"Human blood la too thick for the
mosquito to imbibe. Therefore, after
she has probed your akin she proceeds
to inject a liquid to dilute your blood
This liquid is acid, and causes the
well known sting. If you allow the
mosquito to finish her meal In peace
she will draw most of the fluid out
with your blood, thus leaving you lit
tie tho worse for your experience. If
on the other hand you smash her, she
obviously cannot withdraw it, and you
know that you have been bitten
May Carry Malaria Germa.
"Sometlmea the fluid is more tlmn
exasperating, for It may carry what-
ever germs tlie mosquito has extract-
ed from her latest victim. It Is the
diluting liquid of the anopheles mos-
quito that carries malaria, a disease
which Is possible In this section, al-
though not common.
Always. In referring to mosquitoes
that bite, Major Skinner used femi-
nine pronouns. He was asked why.
"Because the lady mosquitoes ar.
the only ones that bite," he said. "So
far as we know, the males may not
eat anything as long as ihey live,
which Isn't long. They have two days
or less In the world, and their only
function Is breeding.
“Not so the females. They 11'e

Doesn't Feed on Blood.
"The big Job of the female Is to
muture the eggs that are to become
new mosquitoes. And It's part of that
job to bite human beings aud animals.
For simple nutrition she relies main
ly on what she can get from ordlnury
moisture. She drinks blood not pri-
marily as food but as a substunoe that
helps to mature her eggs. It has been
said that If we coul. keep mosquitoes
from biting any one or anything we
could prevent the birth of any more
mosquitoes.
"At any rate, the main reason why
the gentleman mosquitoes don't bite
us In that they have no responsibility
In the egg-maturing business. Anoth
er explanation, according to some oh
servers* may be the handsome putt
of plumes that every Mr. Mosquito has
at each side of hls head.
"He Is very proud of these plumes
and uses them to court Mrs. Mosquito.
Now. If he were to bite anyone, the
plumes would get mussed up In the
process. It’s uot unreasonable to sup
pose that hls vanity, therefore, helps
to deter him from biting."

A few years before the war Mrs.
Joseph Szabo, the wife of a local ar
tisan, left irer husband and went to
America with Nick Kakodates. a
Greek. When America entered the
war Kakodates enlisted and was kill-
ed in action on the French front.
Mrs. Szabo. who had been living in
America as his wife, was named as
beneficiary in hls $10,000 war risk in-
surance policy. While Kakodates was
away in Francb she had tired of Am-
erican Hie and returned to her native
Debrecxen.
After a live year searching the in-
surance buerau traced her to Debre
czen and sent the money to her.
Meanwhile she had lived for several
vears with another Debrecxen man.
Before the money arrived, however,
she had died, leaving a will in favor
of her "number three."
"Number three" called to collect the
money, only to find that No 1, Joseph
