"City" o? El Dorado
Nothing But a Myth
Some thne ago, when the ruins of
an Aztec city were discovered In the
Amazonian forest, they were popular-
ly supposed to be those of El Dorado,
the golden city to which Raleigh and
many other adventurers were said to
have been lured, some to their death,
and a few to fortune, in Elizabethan
times, when the wildest stories of the
New world found credence.
El Dorado sounds like the fanciful
names which the Spaniards and Portu-
guese gave to the cities they estab-
lished, such as Buenos Aires, Santi-
ago, Los Angeles, and so on.
But the fact is that El Dorado is
not a city at all. and never was, al-
though it would make a line sounding
name for some new capital.
Tim story goes that Orellana, the
lieutenant of the great Pizarro, pre-
tended he had discovered a land of
gold between the Orinoco and the
Amazon. but when these high hopes
proved delusive, the ruler was smeared
with oil and rolled In gold dust, and
dubbed El Dorado, the gilded man.

Dickens Great Artist,
Not Mental Specialist
Mr. Mlcawber, Mass FLite and the
numerous other queer characters who
populate the pages of Charles Dickens'
books are correctly depicted from the
viewpoint of the layman who sees
what he hinks he ought to see, but not
when viewed by a specialist in mental
diseases.
This is the opinion of Dr. Charles W.
Burr, professor of psychiatry in the
University of Pennsylvania medical
school, who has applied to these fic-
tion characters the methods which he
uses in diagnosing mental disorders
when called into a criminal court as an
alienist.
"Dickens was an artist," says Doc-
tor Burr, "and not a specialist in
mental medicine. Just as the dying
of a great actor on the stage is alto-
gether unlike death as tie physician
sees it, so life seen with an artist's
eyes is unlike life seen by the pr
fessor trained in the learning of the
schools. Death as it really happens,
acted on the stage, would be flat, stale
and uninteresting. Dickens describes
a fairyland, not seldom a fairyland
into which devils have intruded, This
is the secret of his wide appeal spread-
ing through space and lasting through
time."--Science Service.
Had to Time Their
Walks by Almanac
Ouvrard, the great French army con-
tractor, was at one time "wanted" by
the officers of the tribunal of com-
merce for some offense. According to
the law he could not be arrested as
long as the sun was not up. As a re-
sult he was in the habit of taking his
constitutional for an hour before sun-
rise every morning, judging the time
by the almanac, H. C. Kitchen con-
tributes to the Kansas City Star.
In spite of his care, however, he was
arrested one morning on his saunter,
and the authorities proved that the al-
manac was wrong, and that as a mat-
ter of fact the sun rose ten minutes
earlier than the book stated.
Consequently, Ouvrard brought legal
actions against both the compiler and
publisher of the book. The courts up-
held him and the latter were forced to
pay damages,

q'he ocean appears to the traveler
