Palermo, Sicily, Oct. 6.--Thou- tands of armed men have invaded the large estates of almost the en-| tire island, whieh is still held in practically feudal condition by the | barons. These absentee landlords, whose properties, though not well cultivated usually yield immense pro- fits, spend most of their time and | money im Naples, Rome, Paris and Madrid. Picturesque scenes were enacted especially at Alcomno, where peas- ants marched, waying the national flag, bearing religious standards and singing popular songs. Thete were leaders from all parties, Socialists, Catholics and former combatants, even the monk father, Brancatelli, who proceeded the crowd on horse- back, crucifix in hand, surrounded by a staff composed of Catholics and ex-combatants, symbolizing the new alliance of the cross and sword. Amid cries of rejoicing and pray- ers of thanksgiving, the strange pro- cession occupied the large estate of the Duke of Corigilano. No resist- ance was offered, despite the pres- :nce of police and carabiners, whose instruetions were not to oppose oc- cupation of estates insufficiently cul- tivated. Similarly the peasants occupied the estate of Baron Camarita and { Baron Floristella and many others of the gentry. The prefect of Cata- nia was warmly applauded by the people for having issued a decree legally permitting the occupation of estates and their division into ¥mall holdings emong the peasants who fought in the war. Only one deplorable incident oc- curred. Three hundred horsemen from the village of Sant Angelo Muxara, led by their Mayor, were returning after having occupied the Muxarello estate, escorted by ten carabineers and two sergeants, when without warning, 100 peasants from the neighboring village of Sanbiagio, hidden behind tres fired, killing one and wownding several others and then making their escape. The attack by the peasants is at- tributed to the fact that the people of Sanbiagio considered Muxarello { within their province and, therefore, ithe Sant Angelo peasants as {usurpers. be ob | | Didn't Trust the Banks, : Footpads Get His Rol!

Eating meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known author- ity, because the uric acid in meat ex- cites the kidneys, they become over- worked; get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, particular- ly backache and misery in the kid- ney region; rheumatic twinges, se- vere headaches, acid stomach, consti- pation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irritation. The moment your back hurts or kidneys aren't acting right, or if blad- der bothers you, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good pharmacy; take a tabléspoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few 'days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is ade from the acid of grapes and mon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neu- tralize the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending blad- der disorders.

Brittany Is Filled With Traditions and Charm, Opposite the Seven Islands on the extreme north of the coast of Brit- tany loom the huge red granite rocks of the promontery of the Plou- manac's, a relic of the Tertiary age, some call it, or of some dim period | when chaos ruled the world. No tree, only wind-swept stubble, may take root on those cliffs. A spot of wild | and awful beauty, to some it is the | "chaos of Ploumanac'h," a "territory 80 savage, a desert, yet more ter- rible in its charucter of desolation than any desert could be." But uthers speak of its grandeur, of the intense blue of the surrounding waters, smooth as a lake; of the island beyond, faint in a purple haze, says the Kansas City Star. Those to whom fhe forbidding as- pest. of the Ploumanat'h does not appeal, see rather the work of a glant hand, which pyramided the immense granite blocks one on the other in Titan playfulness. Yonder is the counterpart of a kneeling dromedary, which some ancient Michael Angelo might well have exe- cuted, one writer believes. Or that monstrous jar there--it might have come frou: the chisel of a Cellini of the Paleclithic age. Or the whole prodigious mass might be rome Babel cast up from the depths of the sea. But it is In its legendary lore as well as in ifs natural beauty that the potent charm of the Ploumanac'h and its domain lies. Briltany, ever a land of romantic myth and fanciful tradi- tion, outdid herself under the stimu. ius of the sbtting which the wild | afford. | haunts of the north coast Once, thay say, dragons lurked in caverns under those red granite boulders to come forth to combat, belching smoke and flame; once, true saints baptised the hegthen in those !ittle shrines; once King Arthur and a gallant cavalcade of knights spur- red their steods along the beach. On the knoll of one of the granite cliffs stands the little stone chapel of 8t. Guirec or Kirec. St. Guiree must at least be honored as a pionear missionary, for it was only the year 6547, the Celtic legend has it, that hae sailed over frow England. In the manner of his passage, 8!. Guirec ia sald to have follcwed the fushion nf saints of the day; he crossed on & large slab of stone. That served a double purpose. It furnished the ele. ment of the miruculour, which waa | rather expec.ed o* saints, and it pro- vided material for the statue of the saint In his new shrine, should nc.e be handy in the uew location. It 1s in a shrius on the rocks by the bay that the stone staiue of St. Guirec stands. Ou the pillars of the shrine there are ancient carvings of goat heads, which are believed to stablish the period of the work as the sixth century. The effigy of the saint in the cha- vel on the knoll i= of wood and to it s accorded the greater attention and éverence. For it is to this shrine hat the maidens of the countryside ~end their way, there to pray to their patron, St. Guirec, for husbands. As part of the ritual of such supplica- | ions, each malden must stick a pin roint in the statute of the saint. Mil- ions of faint indentations cover the statue's surface, it is related, with here and there the evidence of some very vicious little digs indeed. The little Breton village of La Clarte also houses an ancient chapel, that of Notre Dame de la Clarte, Dim tradition has it this "Our Lady of the Light" might be the flery Isis, goddess of Egypt, whose far flung cult might 'have reached out to the distant north. = But the pilgrimage made yearly to the chapel by a Chris- tain throng would call the chapel the abode of the Virgin. Those who come groping to seek Our Lady of the Light all are blind. The land is rich in legends: of King Arthur and the Knights of his Round Table, for it is opposite Tre- gastel, on the west side of the Plou- manac'h promotory, that the island of Avalon lies, burial place of Arthur, the Brétons say. Tho dry specula- tiom of the historian calls the legends the result of an English migration from Cornwall to Brittany. But ths poets tell that when the traitor, Mo- dred, had fallen at the hand of Ar- thur among the heaps of the slain, three queens bore Arthur, himself faint from mortal wounds, to a barge and thence the king called in fare- well to his last surviving knight as he was being earried to the "island valley of Avilion": "Where falls not hail nor rain nor any snow, Net ever wind blows loudly, but it es Deep meadow'd, happy, fair with orchard lawns, And bowery hollows crowmed with Bummer seas." Other legends have it that King Arthur came to Avalon or otherwise. Arthur, old wives relale, was riding along the beach in brave array, when Morgane Le Fay, sister of Merlin, set eyes on him, Already enamored of the king, she Was unable 'o resist the opportunity, but raped 2 uss. steel and all, in a cloud, an or sorcery conveyed him to her realm of Avalon. To there, the old wives whisper, the King was immured in an underground pal- ace and never allowed to come forth by the jealous queen, save in the guise of a raven. And who knows what magie and dire spells stil] are woven by moonlight on Avalon in the offing of the granite orags of the Ploumanao'h? What might you not expect to see--with Arthur a raven? "Have you ever geen Ki Ar- thur?" Frances Gostling once an aged Breton, who spin the tale to her, "Well," temporised the old fish man, "I've seen a raven sitting ig rock, and maybe so have you," ; The Flapper, Moth 'Why don't you TE ge ma, it would g %0 foolish, ' re Mun -- 'Would Be Quite Handy. - 'How does the breakfast suit you, Jack?" inquired the young bride anx- ously. "It's just right, dearest," declared Jack. "I'm awfully fond of calves' liver for breakfast.
