'OLD PICTURE CHANGES HANDS \All meals Wednesdays and Saturdays, and every luncheon during the week, are wheatless meals under the revised orders of the food administration, and ' this regulation applies not only i to hotels and restaurants, but to private homes.\ This was the statement made Monday by State Food Adminis- , trator Alfred Atkinson to clear up doubts that have existed in the minds of some people as to i whether the order applied to pri- vate homes. ! \A wheat!ess meal,\ said Mr. ! Atkinson, \is defined by the food administrator as a meal, I whether no bread is used or bread — that does not contain over 50 per cent of white flour.\ Well! Well!

When Christopher Columbus was dallying at the court of Ferdinand and Isabella, it is quite likely that lie inspected and admired a painting that changed hands in New York a 4iort time ago. It is another of Roger van der Weyden's little masterpieces. A sin- irular coincidence about its sale is that the price was $150,000, the same as that received by Sir Edgar Speyer, as announced, for the portrait lent by him to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The purchaser in the latest trans- action is Michael Dreicer. \Christ Appearing to Mary,\ is the subject of the picture. The virgin is seated in an ornamental doorway. Her face expresses poignant sorrow and pity as her son, arisen from the tomb, ap- pears before her. The valley of Gethsemane, with a glimpse of his resurrection, is seen beyond a shad- owed courtyard. Scenes from the life of Christ are depicted sculptural- ly on the archway surrounding the principal figures. The picture was painted about 1450, when the painter went to Rome as the guest of the pope. tt is known to have belonged to Queen Isabella of Spain at the time when she pawned her jewels to equip Colum- bus for his voyage of discovery. JIMMIE BROUGHT UP PUSS1 Marooned on Rock, Boy Effected a Rescue That Was Both Novel and Brave. As Mayor Amos Radcliffe of Pat- erson, N. J., was crossing the West street bridge he heard a shout from a group of youngsters. They had discovered a cat marooned on a rock just under the arch of the bridge. The mayor stopped and the boys dis- cussed methods of rescue. Twine and a peach basket were obtained. The basket was lowered to the rock, with shouted invitations for kitty to take the elevator. But hitty did not trust strange boys. A long pole was obtained, and the lads tried to force a rescue by pushing kitty into their life -net. They succeeded in pushing her in- to the rim. It was then that Jimmie came to the front. He got a rope and, tying it about his waist, ordered the other boys to lower him to the rock. While Jimmie was swinging helplessly in circles, with his head below his heels, the cat regained the rock. There was still hope. As the squirming Jimmie was lowered close to her, the cat leaped upward and landed on the scat of ,Jimmie's trousers, into which she sank her claws. The crowd yelled again and the boys on the bridge hauled in their line. Jimmie and kitty were landed safely on the bridge. EFFECT OF PASSPORT REGULA. TIONS. One of the effects of the enforce- ment by the United States of more stringent passport regulations, is that there are no further extradition cases of Americans from England. During many years before the war there were a substantial number of such cases, so many that dealing with them constituted an important division of the work of officials at the embassy. So well have the new regu- lations governing the issuing of passports served the cause of justice that during the current year there has not been a single case of an American criminal or suspect being arraigned at Bow street police court for extradition. BEYOND HER REACH. It W118 at a concert in the village schoolhouse. The budding soprano before she began to sing apologized for her cold. Then she started : \I'll hang My harp on a willow tree-e-ahum—on a willow tree -e -e- 0—\ Her voice broke on the high note each time. Then a voice came from the back of the hall: \Say Liz, you'd better hang it on a lower branch.\ CAN'T AVOID THEM. \Doii't you find it hard these times to meet expenses?\ ' \Hard ?

The town of Katalla, noted as Alaska's chief oil center and pros- pective shipping port for the Bering river coal fields, is reported to be much troubled with wolves this sea- son. The brutes are said to be much more venturesome and daring than is common with these pests. A large pack has been making itself at home, not on the outskirts of the town, but right on, the streets in broad day- light. The animals visit the garbage cans of residents and help themselves to whatever is lying about. In sev- eral instances they have been ob- served in yards frisking with domes- tic dogs, and in some cases have en- ticed the canine pets to the woods hack of town and there devoured hem. Mrs. Charles Naughton, going to her woodshed, found a big black wolf investigating the surroundings. She chased him out with a board, but after running off a short distance he sat down to watch her. When she started to return to her house the wolf began to sneak up toward her with a view to ,attacking her, as Mrs. Naughton believes. Her cry for help brought several men to het' assist- ance, when the wolf made off. As yet no one has been actually attacked, but at the recent funeral of a young native woman it was a strange sight to see the coffin on the dog -sled ahead, the mourners walking behind all armed with guns, and a large pack of wolves following on either side, just out of gunshot. At night the weird howling of the wolvea keeps up for hours.
