Bird Outruns Horse.
Anyone who has traveled through
western Texas becomes familiar with
the mesqulte tree, or. as It sometimes
grows, a shrub. In some places where
It may grow to be .10 or 40 feet high, It
Is commonly known ns the chaparral,
says the American Forestry Magazine
of Washington. Here It is scrubby and
masses Into dense clumps, It being the
home of that famous bird the “road-
runner" or chaparral cock, and other
species. The road runner Is really a
big ground cuckoo, that only takes to
flight when hard pressed, while on
open ground It can run so fast that un
ordinary horse cannot keep up.

Sciential Thus Explains the Striking
Difference* Between Various
Races of Mankind.
Assuming that the various existing
rat es of mankind are descended from
a common stock, how are to be ex-
11a'lie i such striking differences as
these that distinguish, for example, the
CHnamun from the Anglo-Saxon, and
the Anglo-Saxon from the negro? Prof.
Arthur Keith recently discussed this
question In an address before the an-
thropological section of the Brit-
iali association.
He believes that the key to this prob-
lem Is to be found through studying
the disturbances and disorders that oc-
casionally affect the development and
growth of.the human body; especially
those due to a functional derangement
of one or more of the glands of Inter-
ne! secretion—the pituitary, thyroid,
pineal, adrenal and other glands. In
some manner not yet understood, the
functions, carried on In their glands
regulate not only the dimensions of
the body, but also the shape and size
of each Individual part.
“The racial features of the Mongo-
lian type are Imitnted by growing Eu-
ropeans who are affected by deficiency
disorders of the thyroid gland. The
features of the negro can best be ac-
counted for by the nature of the
growth-regulating mechanism centered
In the thyroid and suprarenal glands.
European features are connected with
a dominance In the functions or the
pituitary.
Scientists hope that a thorough
study of the still obscure subject of
the so-called ‘‘ductless" glands will pro-
vide the means of regulating to some
extent, the future evolution of the hu-
man race.

Speedy Animals.
Two of the fastest of the smaller
i animals are the greyhound and the
jack rabbit. The greyhound can go
at the rate of .‘12 miles an hour, while
, his cousin, the Russian wolfhound, can
beat him by five miles and has much
j greater powers of endurance. The
; greyhound, like the horse, digs In with
i his forefeet and uses his front legs for
’ pulling as well as pushtng with his
; hind legs, The jack rabbit’s front legs
arc only crutches, but, like the ante-
lope. he makes up for It by the power
I of his hind legs.

Big Demand for Maple.
Mnple appears In fifty of the fifty-
five Industries Into which the uses of
wood In the United States are gen-
erally divided. No other wood has a
i record so nearly approaching univer-
sal use. Oak. red gum. basswood and
birch approach maple, but fall a little
short. It appears In a few Industries
j where they are not found. Maple leads

and shoe findings.

SAYS SERVANT WAS KILLED
Present Soviet Government Has Of-
fered 2.000,000 Rubles for Alleged
Pretender's Head—Pretenders
of Bygone Days.
New York.—A recent dispatch from
London brings the Information that a
man purporting to be Czar Nicholas II
of Russia is raising a large following
In Siberia. According to his allega-
tions, he asserts that It was one of hla
faithful servants who was killed la
his place by the bolshevlki at Ekat-
erinburg over two years ago. The pres-
ent soviet government has offered a
reward of 2,000,000 rubles for this al-
leged pretender’s head.
If this man Is an Impostor nnother
name can be added to the long list of
pretenders to the crowns of Europe.
In bygone days some were successful
In establishing their claims, while oth-
ers paid the penalty for their false
allegations on the guillotine. One of
the successful claimants to a throne
of Europe proved to be a wise and
able ruler.
AL>out 1493 a mysterious stranger
appeared In Cork, Ireland, where the
people greeted bin? ns the brother of
Edward IV’ of England, hut he denied
this. They then claimed that he was
the son of Richard III, nnd he denied
this too. But at length he admitted
that he was the duke of York, one of
the two princes whom It was believed
Richard III had murdered In the tower
of London.
Members of the nobility came from
England, and after questioning the
stranger they were convinced that he
was the duke of York. He then called
himself Richard Plantngenet, duke of
York, son of Edward IV, nnd by right
of succession Richard IV of England.
Henry VII was then ruler of Eng-
land, nnd ho dft all In his power to
thwart the designs of the new’ claim-'
ant to the thrdne. He succeeded In
driving him out of France by forcing
Charles VIII to banish him. nnd he
defeated him when he Invaded Eng-
land from Scotland. Richard IV then
sought refuge In Cornwall nnd later
marched on London at the head of
7.000 Cornishmen who rallied to his
banner, but he was defeated nnd taken
prisoner.
Admitted He Was Adventurer.
It was said that Henry VII obtained
n confession from him by torture. He
admitted that he was one Perkin War-
beck, an adventurer from Picardy.
After several weeks In the public
stocks this pretender was executed.
James II became unpopular by fa-
voring the church of Rome, so William
nnd Mary were Invited to accept the
throne -♦ England, since Mary was the
eldest child of Charles II. But a year
before they assumed their regal duties
It was announced that James’ consort
wns about to present him with an heir.
However, a rumor spread that,Tames
was about to pass off on the unsus-
pecting public as his heir a child that
was not his own. The birth of Prince
James Francis Edward Stunrt, who
was known In later yenrs ns the Chev-
alier St. George, was witnessed by
persons not really believed by the
people. The following year James II
wns forced to flee to France.
Many years late** the two daughters
of Sir TheopUIlus Oglethorpe, who wns
n faithful follower of James II. were
overheard by Frances Shnftoe, n seam-
stress, to remark that James Stunrt.
the Chevalier St. George, was their
brother. One night the queen’s In
fant died of convulsions at Windsor
nnd Lady Oglethorpe* brought her son
nine days older, to the castle nnd he*
was substituted for the ]> <*.
Oglethorpe’s daughters had Fran
Shnftoe confined In n French conven-
when they learned she shared theh
secret, hut she succeeded In sending
word to her mother. When It was p I
11 siied that O
posed to he the prince the Chevalier
St. George’s plans In Scotland failed

Immediately after Cm! urine and Pc

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
The Ford Sedan, with electric starting and
ligli ting system,demountable rims with3ji-inch
tires all around, is the ideal family car because
of its general utility and refined and comfortable
equipment. Finely upholstered. Plate glass
windows. An open car in the spring, summer,
and early fall. A closed car in inclement
weather and winter. Rain-proof, dust-proof. In
the city or the country, a family car. The low
cost of operation and maintenance is not the
least of its charms. Won’t you come in and
look it over?
