• On April 27, 1667, blind poet John Milton sells the copyright to his masterpiece “Paradise Lost” for a mere 10 pounds. Once printed, the poem was immediately hailed as a masterpiece of the English language. In 1671, he wrote “Paradise Regained,” followed by “Samson Agonistes.” He died in 1674. • On April 25, 1859, at Port Said, Egypt, ground is broken for the Suez Canal, an artificial waterway intended to stretch 101 miles across the isthmus of Suez and connect the Mediterranean and the Red seas. When it opened, the Suez Canal was only 25 feet deep, 72 feet wide at the bottom, and 200 feet to 300 feet wide at the surface. Fewer than 500 ships navigated it in its first year of operation. • On April 24, 1863, the Union army issues General Order No. 100, which provided a code of conduct for Federal soldiers and

officers when dealing with Confederate prisoners and civilians. It became the standard for international military law. • On April 22, 1915, German forces shock Allied soldiers along the Western front by firing more than 150 tons of lethal chlorine gas against two French colonial divisions. The Germans, perhaps as shocked as the Allies by the devastating effects of the poison gas, failed to take full advantage, and the Allies held most of their positions.

Q: I really miss “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,” especially designer Tracy Hutson. What has she been doing lately? -- Pamela T., Waco, Texas A: You can still catch Tracy decorating for a cause -- this time she has teamed up with the Design Network (www.thedesignnetwork.com) Tracy to star in “Momtourage,” an Hutson original video series focused on lifting up deserving moms who have done so much for their families and their communities. Each episode will follow Tracy as she pays a surprise visit to each woman’s home, listens to her story, learns about her family life, and offers a fun and inspirational interior-design intervention -- all in the span of one Saturday. When I spoke with Tracy recently, she told me how excited she was to work with TDN to help these women: “If I have the opportunity to help people, I’m going to take it. That’s just who I am. This series just goes to show what you can do, and how important and impactful
it can be on someone’s life -especially someone who has had a rough time just getting on her feet. It’s so fun, and it means the world to them.” ••• Q: I finally was able to watch “Hatfields and McCoys,” and I absolutely loved it. When can I see Bill Paxton in something like this again? -- Paul T., Scranton, Pa. A: Well, I can’t tell you exactly when just yet, but I can tell you what. The History Channel has ordered “an eight-hour television event” called “Texas Rising,” with Bill leading an all-star cast featuring Brendan Fraser, Ray Liotta, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Olivier Martinez, Michael Rapaport and many more. The series will detail the Texas Revolution and the rise of the legendary Texas Rangers, and is set to premiere in 2015. ••• Q: My book club finished reading “The Astronaut Wives Club,” and one of the ladies said she heard that it is being made into a TV show. Is that true? -- Danni W., via email
April 14, 2014
A: ABC is indeed airing a 10-part series called “The Astronaut Wives Club,” based on the bestselling book by Lily Koppel, which tells the story of the women who were key players behind some of the biggest events in American history. The series premieres July 24 at 9/8c, and stars JoAnna Garcia Swisher, Odette Annable, Zoey Boyle and Azure Parsons. •••

Bozo the Clown Q: In about 1949, I received a 78-rpm record album of “Bozo at the Circus.” The album featured colorful illustrations of circus animals and two records that contained the story. I still have it and wonder if it is rare. -- Jimmy, Metarie, La. A: Alan W. Livington created the original concept for Bozo the Clown. Pinto Colvig, a former vaudeville headliner, radio actor and, yes, circus performer, became the voice of Bozo on the recorded stories issued by Capitol Records. The set you have was issued in 1946 and it became so popular that the company began promoting Bozo as Bozo the Capitol Clown. In 1949, KTTV-TV in Los Angeles was the first to air a Bozo televised series, and it soon became one of the most popular syndicated programs for children. “Bozo at the Circus” is not considered a rarity. Most of the copies I’ve seen in shops and at antiques malls have been priced in the $15 to $25 range. ••• Q: While cleaning out one of my mother’s closets, I found a small jewelry box that contained several pieces of costume jewelry from the 1930s. Two of the more interesting pieces are a brooch designed by Joseph Wiesner and an Art Deco bracelet made of sterling, rhinestones and pink glass cabochons. Is this collection worth appraising? -- Barbara, Channahon, Ill. A: I contacted several costume jewelry experts, and they seem to agree that the two pieces you listed are worth at least $100 each, perhaps much more. With that in mind and considering that there are other pieces in your collection, the answer is yes, it is worth appraising. There are two types of appraisals, verbal and written. The verbal appraisal is less expensive, but if you are having this done for insurance purposes, a written opinion is always best. ••• Q: I have a fairly contemporary set of sterling flatware in the Cheryl pattern. What can you tell me about it? -- Susan, Santa Fe, N.M. A: Your flatware was produced by the Kirk Stieff Corporation, which began in 1815 as Kirk & Smith. The Stieff Corporation acquired the Kirk family-owned company in 1979. Your pattern was introduced in 1962. Write to Larry Cox in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O.

Potato Day Aug 2, 2014
• It was Benjamin Franklin who made the following sage observation: “It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation, and only by Samantha Weaver one bad one to lose it.” • If you’re like 87 percent of American adults, you use the Internet. The only thing I find surprising about this statistic is that there are 13 percent of adults who don’t use it.
• In a recent survey, more Americans said they would have a hard time giving up the Internet than said they’d have a hard time giving up TV. • Those interested in maritime history (and practically everyone else, for that matter) are familiar with the story of the Titanic, which struck an iceberg and sank on the night of April 15, 1912. It’s interesting to note, though, that in 1898 a book called “Futility,” by Morgan
Robertson, described an almost identical scenario: The ship in the novel was called Titan, and, like the Titanic, it was trying to break a speed record for crossing the Atlantic. The Titan was declared to be unsinkable, and it didn’t have enough lifeboats for all the passengers. On its fictional voyage in the month of April, it struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean and sank, resulting in the deaths of almost all the passengers.

Give Cats the Carrot
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I’ve owned and trained cats most of my adult life. Regarding your recent column on keeping cats off the counter: You’re right, of course, about training cats when they’re young. But felines are smart creatures, so even an old cat can learn new tricks. The key is to use their dislikes and/or their acute senses of hearing and smell. Most cats dislike getting wet. So, if the rattling pennies don’t work, a small squirt gun or water pistol -- emphasis on “small” -- works remarkably well with training (not disciplining) felines to not jump on tables, etc. Aim for ears or neck. Avoid the eyes, of course. Cats differ from dogs in that dogs can be disciplined by the furniture, etc. One thing that doesn’t ever work with a cat is stick; cats are trained mainly by the carrot. So when your kitty swatting them, as one might do with a rolled up newspaper cat has jumped down from the table, love him up. The same for a dog. Corporal punishment only insults them. Also, for neighborhood cats prowling your garden, flowerapplies for various kitty cat bad habits, such as scratching the beds, etc., at night and yowling, black pepper sprinkled about is most effective. -- Stephen B., Daytona Beach, Fla. DEAR STEPHEN: You’ve taught this old cat a couple of new tricks. I agree that cats don’t respond at all well to discipline, but they can be convinced to do (or not do) certain things. When there’s something more interesting to do than jump on the table -- like chase a felt mouse on a string -- cats have no problem hopping down to concentrate on that.
