BARTER IN AUSTRIA
Medium of Exchaig3 as Paper
Crowns Lose Va'us.
Peasant Demands Something More
Valuable Than Paper Currency
for His Products.
Vienna.—Only Americans of n fen
eration ago who traded farm products
nt the crossroads store for everything
from shoes to sugar can realize the
extent of barter In Austria today.
With the country flooded with cheap
money, the peasants' stockings and
bank accounts fat with currency and
legislation Impending for a compul
sory levy nn fortunes, the paper crown
virtually Is spurned by those who pro
duce the necessities of ilfe.
For eggs or hutter. cheese or white
flour, fat geese nnd ducks, pork prod
ucts and all the things that the Aus
trian city dweller must do without,
the peasant wants something more
valuable than the paper constantly
turned ont by the Austro-Hungarlan
banks.
I'rodigions offers of crowns fall
where a linen shirt, silk stockings
(even much darned), rugs, musical In
struments, shoes nnd such things bring
results.
The story of how the bourgeoisie nnd
poor nobility of Vienna have part
ed with their wardrobes and furniture,
their niaru>s and carpets, for foot!, has
(icon of I «'ti told. N'ow everyone Is
getthig hack to Ilrst principles In
trade.
Visiting n retired officer in his lit
tle country place the correspondent
saw it work. The officer could not
pay 500 crowns n pair for gloves for
a wife and three daughters. ISut he
had three roebuck hides from the ani
mals he had shot this season. He
exchanged them for two dressed hides.
The village glover made thein into
gloves, taking In payment ciiler, mut
ton nnd some veal from the little
form.
Then came the problem of stock
ings. almost nnpurchasahle In Aus
tria. There were 11 sheep grazing
on the place. Shenrfd they yielded
enough wool to exchange for yarn suf
ficient to knit the family hosiery for
the coming winter.
The apple crop of this tiny estate
has been mortgaged for grain to a
neighbor who has no trait and the
miller will take his pay in toll.
The host who entertained In the lit
tle cottage now his home, filled with
American and English periodicals,
once trod the quarter deck of his own
cruiser. A uniform stripped of orna
ments and recut In civilian style is
his best suit
A famous French astronomer says
the unrest of the nations Is due to a
"fever on the sun." Proprietors of
Iced drink parlors who hnve been
playing to empty seats mostly this
season were under the Impression that
It had had a chill.

"WRONG SIDE OF THE BED"
Ancient Superstition Had to Do With
Setting Foot on the Floor j
When Arising.
In olden dnys It was believed to be
very Imd luck to see the new moon re
flected in ft looking ({lass or window
pane. Mirrors were regarded by our
forefathers- as tlie most effective
means of divining secrets. There Is a
tradition that the gunpowder plot was
discovered by Dr. John Dee. n famous
magician of that time, with his magic
mirror. There Is much curious folk
lore about the bed. Bedsteads were
always placed parallel to the plonks
of the floor, as It was considered un
lucky to sleep across the boards.
There Is a liellef among the Hindus
that those who sleep with their heads
to the north will have their days
shortened. Yet some people say they
always sleep sounder when their heads
are placed to the north, and n Scot
tish physician once declared that,
when he failed by every prescription
to bring sleep to Invalid children, he
recommended their beds be turned due
north and south. The phrase "to get
out of bed the wrong way" originated
in an ancient superstition which re
garded it us unlucky to plnce the left
foot first ou the ground when getting
out of bed.
First Aid for Scalds.
It depends on the promptness with
which a scald Is given proper treat
ment, whether or not there will be blis
ters and sore places afterward.
A scalded bond or foot should be
plunged immediately into a bath of
warm water and baking soda in the
proportion of a teaspoonfu! of the
soda to a pint of water. Leave the
affected part In this solution until the
pain leaves. If a part of the body
that cannot lie placed In the bnsln of
wn'er or sen'ded. the chest, or the
baek, or the thizh. wrap the scalded
pcrts with a cloth saturated with the
solution. Keuew until the sting Is re
moved. Then cover with oarbolated
.aseliiie and apply a Iwndage over
this to i.-'ep the nir out.
If this treatment Is applied at once
