.''it) Yrtiarrs, a well-plown d.Pter-
n':'netrapaperiaan,,noW,'in Bertin,
alis ,attention o a' newly-oolned
word, invented In Germany tq de-
scribe a condition which the Germane
are not eijoying, put wetich many
visitors are now delighting`tn Mr :the
rat time. The word la "valuta-
stark," and means literally exchange-
s'rong. It describes the position of
these visitors to Germany who find
that their own money 10 worth so
much more than the German money
that they can live like . millionaires
in Berlin on sums that would hardly
keep them comfortably in a city like
New York. A shore time ago the
German mark declined to a point
where it was worth just one Amer-
ican cent. Instead of the twenty-five
American cents which it represented
before the war. That Is to say, if
prices had not advanced the Amer-
ican visitor to Germany would be
able to buy about twenty-five times
as much with Me letter of credit as
he could have bought seven years
ago, and the Canadian visitor only
slightly less.
But, of course, prices have ad-
vanced in Germany as elsewhere.
Nevertheless, ,one who goes to that
country with American funds can
live for about a third of what his
expenses would be in a large Amer-
ican city, while the British funds
will' go twice as far as they will in
England. Mr. Ybarra says that one
ran live in a first-class German hotel,
eat the best of steals and give the
expected tips for $5 a day, while the
same thing would cost him $15 in
New York. If the visitor happens
not to be a teetotaler; but likes a
pint of pretty good wine at diener,
a glass of beer or sherry at luncheon,
and a few cocktails -or highballs
when he meets his friends, the out-
lay on these liquors will not amount
to more than $5 a week. In other
words, one can live In Berlin for
140 a week and get everything that
he would have to pay about $150
a week for in New York, where he
would also run the risk of being
arrested for violating the law or the
graver risk of being treated for
alcoholic poisoning.
'He mentions the case of an
American who wished to give a
really elaborate dinner in honor of
the American Charge d'Affaires In
Berlin. He went to the manage-
ment of the most -widely -known
hotel, told him what he desired and
hinted at large rewards for some-
thing approaching perfection.
Covers were laid for eight persons.
There were preliminary cocktails,
followed by a well -cooked, well -
served dinner. The menu contained
plenty of vintage Moselle. The
dinner was a great success, and the
host summoned the maitre d'hotel,
complimented him and tipped hint
more handsomely than was expected.
He then found that his total outlay
had amounted to $23. Mr. Ybarra
also mentions another -'^^ dinner
for four, including ch -^.pace taxi-
cab fares to a theatre, .. -. : good
seats were secured, subsequent taxi
visit to a midnight cafe, with good
seats again, and later a supper, the
total cost of the entertainment being
less than $25.
This Is how Americans can live in
Berlin who do not mind throwing
their money around. If they are
more saving and rent apartments and
do not take their meals at the smart-
est hotels, their expenses can be
amazingly cut. One friend of the
writer's has an attractive, medium-
sized apartment, twenty minutes by
trolley from the heart of Berlin, and
for this he pays the equivalent of
$60 a year. Another American has a
charming apartment of two rooms
and bath, In a house formerly fav-
ored by swagger Prussian officers,
fifteen minutes from the centre of
the city, and he pays the equivalent
of a dollar a day, which includes
light and first-class service. He would
be in luck if he could get such
accommodation in New. York City
for five times the price.
A tailor-made suit of clothes coats
$35; a pair of shoes, to order, $6;
neckties of the best quality. $1;
theatre ticket, orchestra stall, $1;
while the average ride in a taxicab
coats about 36 cents, including the
tip. The street car fare is from one
cent to three cents, according to the
distance. Proportionately cheap, too,
are the fees charged by various
music and other instructors, who
were wont to draw thousands of stu-
dents to Germany each year. For a
few dollars one can secure a sound
musical instruction for a term. There
is only one drawback to 'living in
Germany if one is "valutaatark," and
that was described by a traveler who
had visited many cities, cashing trav-
elers' cheques and receiving huge
sums of various foreign notes. When
he finished his tour and' cashed his
last cheque with the purser of the
boat, he exclaimed: "Say, ain't it hell
to present a cheque for fifty dollars
and get for it nothing but fifty
dollars!".

Word has just come that the re-
newed activities of British excava-
tars have bad some extraordinary
successes. Archaeologists are at pres-
ent uncovering many '"splendid
Graeco-Roman buildings and sta-
tues throughout Judea, and some
tine. examples of ancient pottery.
Most of the newly -found structures
were probably erected by Herod the
Great. famous as the slayer of his
beautiful wife, Mariamne, and as
the slaughterer of the ,innoeents at
the time of the birth of Christ.
The greatest finds thus far un-
doubtedly have been made on the
site- of the renowned old city of
Askalon, no the Mediterranean.
Here a party of excavators has die -
covered the intricate system of clois-
ters which once ihclosed the wonder-
ful court of Herod in this place. ley
patient digging and clearing away of
the debris the searchers have euc-
ceeded already in unearthing several
enormous and valuable statues, in -
eluding figures of the gods Apollo,
Venus ane Victory, and a colossal
representation of Herod himself.
This great discovery has followed
directly upon the earlier unearthing,
to the sante place, of a temple with
massive marble columns and capi-
tals, and the clearing out of an an-
cient well which may date back to
the days of the old fish goddess.

Christian General Rules Hunan.
One of the astonishing things in
topsy-turvy China to -day," writes
Miss E. G. 'Kemp in Outward Bound,
"Is the amazing variety of individual
efforts being'madd by .patriotic Chi-
nese for the regeneration of their
country. The country is so large and
the political conditions so chaotic
that many such movements, some on
a large scale, can be carried on with-
out overlapping.
"One of the most successful of
such efforts has been that of Gen.
Feng In the Province of Hunan, the
centre of China proper. Gen. Feng
was at one time a terror to his men,
a cruel man in his home and in hie
relations with otiters. To -day he
merits the title of 'A Chinese Crom-
well.' He has accepted Christianity
and puts its spirit into operation
throughout the parts he rules. I have
traveled for many weeks througli_dia-
tricte, infested with robbers, where
brigands flourish like the bay tree,
and law and order are conspicuous
by their absence --a land that is ono
great poppy garden for the opiu
trade. It came as a shock of sur-
prise and delight to enter this dia-
trtct, where we found, with dramatic
suddenness, order in place of chaos.
safety for peril, a pure strong rule
instead of a corrupt, weak travesty
of government.
"Instead of slaying his prisoners
or driving them away to pillage their
land for food. Feng disbanded the
Southern troops after disarming
them during the 1918 war. Then he
presented each officer with ten dol-
lars and each private with five dol-
lars, so that they might be able to
return to their homes without resort-
ing to pillage, the source of so much
sorrow in China."
The Rocking -Chair.
The rocking -chair has never ap-
pealed to the taste of people in
Europe. Over there they call it an
"American chair," and admit their
failure to understand why anybody
should wish to take exercise while
sitting down. We, of course, could
hardly get along without rockers. In
every farmhouse one finds at least
one rocking -chair; and in this con-
nection It seems worth while to call
attention 'to the novel idea of Moses
W. Carden, of Opelika, Ala. He has
constructed a chair which makes it
practicable for the farmer's wife to
cburn her cream for butter by the
mere performance of rocking. Fas-
tened to the side of the 'chair is a
box -shaped churn - whtcb, for addi-
tional support, is upheld by two up-
rights resting upon .a third and sup-
plementary rocker. As the farmer's
wife rocks the cream In the churn is
agitated. The final result is butter.
When the butter is made the churn
can be detached. — Philadelphia

MEN OUTRUN HORSES
In the days of the "Wild -and Woolly
West" plainsmen and travellers by
overland wagons held to the belief
that a long journey could be made
more speedily by cum afoot than on
horseback. In the army the impres-
sion is general that the infantry can
out -travel the cavalry on long, grind-
ing marches, but to the Santo Domin-
go Indians of New .Mexico belongs
the credit of chasing wild horses over
the ranges of bills until the animals
are exhausted and aubmit to cap-
ture.
No Marathon runners have ever
been recruited from this tribe of
Pueblo Indians, for the wonderful
powers of endurance of the runners,
of the tribe are little known Outside
of thn district innnediately surround-
ing their village.
These runners of the Santo Domin-
go come from s race of fleet footed
ancestors. Like all tribes of Ameri-
can Iudiens, they have accepted the
means travellizfg best euited to
the country where they live The.
Sioux of the Dakotas are horsemen.
The Santo Dominoes have been walk-
ers and runners always. Their
physique shows the result of genera-
tions of footmen. Great chests, al-
most abnormal in development, slope
downward to slender walks, while
sinewy calves proclaim the strength
to bold to it hard trail.
Usually their chases of the bands
of wild horses owned- by the -tribe
are matters of neceseitys The enor-
mous stretches of 'broken country
where the horses graze, and the un-
temed spirits of anneals, many . of
which have not been !touched by anon

or divisions of a pound. This Was too
long a name, and only the word shil-

The crown and half-crown receive
their nettles from the fact that in
early days they bore the king's arms
and crown on" their reverse side.
The florin is really a Florence
piece. At Florence coinage was made
of very pure silver, and, therefore.
had a high value in the eyes of mer-
chants. --Edward III. resolved to pro-
duce.an English coin of equal purity
and value, which, when it appeared,
at once received the name of Flor-
ence piece, fioriner, or florin.

"Stone Age" Men In 1921..
The least vizited island in the

south of Guadalcanal', in the Solo-

Dr. Northeote Deck has recently
made a series of visits to the island.
On first landing he established
friendly relations with the natives,
who appeared heavily armed. "They
bought every available object for
sale," he says, "to ob.ain the much -
coveted iron. All were smeared with
turmeric, giving them a bright yel-
low color, and were tattooed ln regu-
lar patterns according to rank."
Caves were seen swarming with fly-.
ing foxes, whose teeth seem to form
