Sporadic Cases of Cannibaiisn.

Conscious cannibalism is by no means
confined to the Feejee islands. The Rio
Virgen tribes of the Aracanos Indians,
on the northern coast of Chill, do not
hesitate in hard winter to keep the pot
boiling by slicing up a few of their super
fluous relatives; and DR.. Natchtigall is
positive that the country north and east
of the Congo is swarming with two
legged man-eaters. The Dyaks of Bor-
neo, who gather skulls as our red men
used to gather scalps, now and then eat
personal enemy as a matter of hygienic
precaution, on the theory that the wizard
spells of the dead mans relatives can
thus be rendered Intellectual. Sporadic
cases of cannibalism occur in every East
Indian famine. The nations of Europe
alone are in that respect total abstainers,
at the present at least, for Roman tradi-
tons date back to time when the
Lestrygones of southern Italy kept spe-
cial stock yards for fattening their pris-
oners of war.-Dr. Felix l.. Oswald.

in the Air Pressure.

The British Medical Journal recently
emphasized the value of the mechanical
treatment of certain affections of the re-
spiratory tract by means of artificial al
terations in the air pressure. We are all
familiar with the advantages attending
a change of air with certain classes of
patients, and much of the good 50 OBJ
tanned is due, according to The Journal
"to the change of atmospheric pressure
in combination with variation in the hy-
groscopic and electric properties of the
respired air"
The therapeutical value of rarefed or
compressed air in lung troubles has been
for some time strongly asserted. But the
precise conditions under which patients
should be subjected to increased or re-
duced pressure and the degree of such
variation are points yet to be expert
mentally determined. DR.. Yeo, of Lon
don, has shown that the low air pressure
of the Alpine resorts (at attitudes of 5000
feet is highly conducive to the health OF
pulmonary patients in the early stages OF
phthisis. 1t may be questioned how
ever, whether the benefit of high level
resorts is not as much due to the purity
and dryness of the air as to its rarefac
ton. The therapeutical value of all
pressure changes must therefore be tested
where all the other conditions are the
same.-Chicago Tribune.

According to Hecker, there are six dis
tinct styles of delivery outside of STRAIT
egy. They are the straight delivery,
out-curve, in-curve, high in-curve, rising
ball, and drop ball. The stragetic part,
however, further divides these six classes
into many different shoots. A straight
ball can be thrown, for instance, in sew
eral ways so as to deceive the batsman.
This is done by ranging the speed from a
swift to a slow or medium ball, or by a
deceptive move of the arm. Then, again,
either of the various curves can likewise
be gagged from a short quick TO long
stride, or a slow or swift curve, either
being resorted to as a means of deceiving
the batsman. -Philadelp Press.

trancingly beautiful, Its pedals at the

which it daintily poises in its exquisite

Autocratio Ways of George Washington.

One hears much of "the earlier and
purer days of the republic" but the truth
is form and state was adopted by Gen
and Mrs. Washington which would not
be tolerated for an instant in the presi-
dents of to-day. At their levees they
received standing upon a lofty dais. I'm
agine the roar that would go up now if
a two-inch dais were introduced at the
White House-nay, the bare suggestion
of introducing one. Washington also
conceived when he was president that he
had a right to influence legislation, and
spent much of his time in the halls of
congress. When legislation was going
to Sis liking he would not interfere, but
if it did not suit him he would march
into the house or senate. seat himself,
and scowl around with every indication
of displeasure. Frequently members
were not brave enough to face his mighty
wrath, but sometimes they did, when
Washington made 70 effort to conceal
his disgust.
1t must be borne in mind, though, that
there were no precedents in republican
governments in those days. Everything
was new, and naturally followed old
forms. 1t will be remembered that it
was seriously proposed to confer the title
of high mightiness upon the president.
John Adams, who was the son of a
tinker, was dreadfully worried over the
lack of titles in the new republic. Ed
mund Randolph, who was the son of a
gentleman, told him that titles in a re-
/ 10 oil
al forget what particular form of OBJ
jurgation he used, but it was exceedingly
forcible. Benjamin Franklin then gravely
remarked that if the president was to be
his high mightiness the vice-president
could be called his superfuous highness.

Presiding Elder Paine reports that an
ancient cemetery has been discovered at
Stewards landing, on the Ohio river,
near New Martinsville. The bodies are
laid at regular intervals from north to
south, and the river running against the
bank has exposed the remains The
graves are about two feet below the sur
face and the bodies were covered with a
layer of mussel shells and the graves
then filled with earth. The graves lie
closely together for a considerable dis
lance along the river bank. The bones
have become soft by age and can be
broken with the fingers. Trees of con-
siderable age are growing over the
graves.-Wheeling Register.

CURIOUS TRAMPS FROM ASPINWALL

Spiders That Gene to This Country in
Bunches of Bananas.
Look out for the tramps!" said fruit
dealer the other day.
The reporter was admiring the bright
buff color of a bunch of bananas, when
a big ugly spider crawled out and ambled
along on the counter. He was a bundle
of dark brown fuzz about the size of
your thumb, into which were stuck sew
eral long, black legs.
He was a tramp all the way from As
pinwall And, like a tramp who had
stolen a ride under freight car on a
brakeman, his legs seemed cramped from
the long journey in the crevices of a
bunch of bananas The poor fellow was
at a loss where to go. He was thousands
of miles from home and friendless, for
people do not take kindly to big, ugly
SPIDERS He was a tramp and in "A
strange country.
I'VE killed one here the other night
with body as big as a biscuit. His body
popped like a torpedo. They come often
i'll bananas, but we generally manage to
kill them. Up at the old store one es-
capped and made his home under the
counter. Then another escaped and for
long time we lost sight of them. One
day we found web under the counter
and on looking closer we discovered the
two tramps. They had raised a large
family of spiders, and they were the
cutest little things you would care to see.
They ran nimbly into the web
1 -,
and many IA day we have watched them
simply for the amusement. They caught
every fly that came within range, and
now and then bug happened within
their reach and varied their bill of fare.
Although we knew they We're dangerous
pets we did not disturb them, for the
reason that they seemed to be industr-
Gus tly-catchers, and were never in
clined to sting. One afternoon a new
clerk saw one big fellow run around a
corner of the counter, and as he had
never seen a spider of such enormous
size, he imagined that to allow it to 20
at large was equivalent to turning a
tiger loose, and he killed the pet. The
others ran out and for about an hour
the new clerk had as much as he could
stand up to killing spiders"
DO they ever bite?"
Yes, but it is a rare occurrence. They
fight like wildcats, and they are high
tempered, but they never trouble any
body unless aroused and leased. AL
though there are millions of lunches OF
bananas brought to this country every
season, and many a spider steals his way
across with them, you never hear of any
one being stung, They are very peculiar
things and differ widely in their habits
from the common spider of this coun
try, which makes web like the center
piece of a rising-sun crazy quilt. They
make kind of nest and then spread out
lines of web in every direction
On this angle line, which is
as small as a silken thread they
run with ease, hanging to it by
their long, flexible legs. When dan
ger threatens they have a way of draw
ing in their lines and, budding together
await the attack of the foe. When thu
disturbed they make prodigious leap
and arrange in circle around the nest
which they seem to guard with jealous
care. Then, when provoked, they ruI
all over the attacking party. They ar,

Where Bows Outgrow Their Father.

The climate of New Zealand is about
as different from ours as an April shower
from an October breeze, and yet the col
onists are having an experience which
in North America was unhesitatingly
ascribed to climatic influences. In nine
out of ten cases their boys outgrow their
fathers. A squat little emigrant takes to
farming, succeeds, gets married, and is
soon surrounded by bevy of six-footers.
Several recent travellers agree that the
agricultural fairs of Dunedin assemble
an astonishing number of unprofessional
giants, corduroy-clad sons of Anak,
whom any British Snowman would be
glad to engage.-Dr. Felix l.. Oswald.

A Split.

In budding splendor and most winsome
mien:
With face down-lroDped lest its full grace
be seen,
In swaying bronzon glory of her hair,
She vioiet-la1en stands, her hat awry,
In artlessness artistic, and so fair
The amorous grasses kiss her garments
hem;
The willful clover bends its sturdy stem;
The winds embrace her as she passes by,
And birds in choric volubility
Startle the hillside's bright tranquility.
Is she some native spirit of the wood,
Whom mighty Pan for very love hath
wooed
Here in the dewy shadow of the pines
And noisy silence of the watchful morn,
That in quick light her beauty still con
fines
With gloriole resplendant to adorn?
What art thou. down-drooped and uncon-
scious face,
That fittest like Dryad's thro' the place?
Who art thou, creature of the tender
BY light conceived, and of the morning
born?
With thunderous roar and diapason
strong,
From seraphm and heavens assembled
host
The undulating music sweeps along,
From crystal walls again to be retost
In quivering echoes to proclaim thy race,

With hat awry and little shoes united,

OF the infinitude of saints forgiven,
