THEATRE i Needlewomen in China Ply Trade in Street China is perhaps the only conn-try in the world where one may have his garments mended on the street while lie waits. In nearly all the chief cities of the country native sewing women are to be seen seated on low stools, perhaps ou the sidewalk, mending articles of masculine wearing apparel. The accomplishments of these street seamstresses are somewhat limited, their efforts with the needle being confined, as a rule, to "running." Other branches of needlework are virtually unknown to them. As a consequence their efforts are better appreciated by natives than by foreign travelers.

They are never short of patrons among the Chinese tradesmen, for these nre often natives of other districts, and bavins come to the city to engage in business have no one to mend a rent for them. Their wives being left lit home, they are glad to employ the street needlewomen. For this class of customers the skill of the itinerant sevviDg woman answers every purpose. Objected to Viewing What He Was Missing Vincent Shean, traveling correspondent for a number of magazines and a chain of newspapers, was commenting on prison life in different countries. "In he says, "the tortures meted out to culprits for various offenses have made prompt execution almost welcome.

Indeed, the executioner is called 'the messenger of mercy. Yet I sometimes wonder if Oriental methods are not really more kind than those of the so-called reformed penal institutions of America. ''Once I was talking to a convict in a large American city. I told him how it was in China. 'Then give me China instead of he declared.

'Here I am, in for life, and once a week I have to go into the prison movie theater and what do I see? Travel A Mighty Mite Red spiders, which actually are not Spiders at ull, but mites are a serious pest in certain cotton fields of the South, and, the Department of Agriculture points out in a recent bulletin, probably damage the cotton crop in excess of in years of severe infestation. The insects are minute and live on the under side of the leaves, feeding from the juices in the leaf tissues, rather than on the surface. They multiply rapidly, and in warm weather a new generation appears in about 12 days. As many as 17 generations a year have been observed. Autoists Catch Ostriches Catching ostriches by automobile is being tried in the Arabian desert, following the bagging of two birds in a day by a party recently.

At first the birds outdistanced the cars, but they soon tired, and as the auto approached alongside, hunter stepped on the running board, grasped one bird by the neck and pulled it into the car. It was too exhausted to struggle. The companion ostrich was captured in the same manner, and four others were shot. No Expenditure for Ice A natural cold-storage plant centuries old has been a boon to the reindeer industry at Klephiuit Point. Alaska.

A tunnel was cut for 100 feet into an immense glacier, then a shaft sent up through the top for circulation of air. Several individual chambers or rooms were gouged out of the ice to hold in cold storage about fi.Ono reindeer carcasses to await the arrival of refrigerator ships to transport the meat to Seattle. "Evil Eye" Feared In Italy especially the evil eye has been believed in and guarded against for centuries. It is known as "la Jet tat lira," and many persons were and still are known as "jettartori," or possessors of the evil eye, who have the quality of injuring all on whom I hey look, even against their own will. Those who moot them cross their fingers or make the sign of the cross or touch some charm against the evil eye.

Flamingos Are Queer Among the peculiarities of the flamingo are the great length of its legs and the formation of its bill, which is large and bout downwards at the middle.

Inventions In speaking of the advantage of these modern limes and the luxuries we enjoy which our grandfathers didn't have, we, too, often speak of autos, telephones, radios, etc. IVi'lmps there are other things, less commonly talked about, that have done more for us.

How about anesthetics, modern surgery, hospitals and the aslonlsliing discoveries of medical science? Grove Patterson in (he Mobile Itegister.
