The land Of LAW Folks,

When travelling around through Siam it is
q constant surprise to see such numbers of
strong, healthy looking men and women ly-
ing around, with apparently nothing in the
world to do but smoke cigars and chew betel
The idleness is largely due to the fact that the
wants Of the common people are so few and
simple and so easily satisfied.
The climate is such that clothing as a pro-
lection from cold, is needed only through the
night and early mornings for about four or
five weeks of the year; the remainder of the
year clothing seems to be looked upon as a
real nuisance, and the less native can get
on with the better. -Demorest's

Eve Stones.

The little bodies called eye stones are really
portions of the covering of certain shell fish.
They are placed at the opening of the shell,
and serve to close the entrance when the ami
NAL draws itself within. They are of various
kinds, but those used as eye stones are hard,
stony bodies, about the size of split peas,

Activity in the Coffin Trade.

A student in Bates college, whose father is
an undertaken, tells good story. A near
neighbours house caught on fire one night,
and the undertaker's storehouse was In SO
much danger that it was deemed advisable to
remove the hearse, collins and other stock. A
farmer, who arrived upon the scene Of action
just as this plan was being carried into exc
cution, said he thought the day Of judgment
had surely come, for there was the fire and
every one was running about with a coffin
under his arm. -Lewiston journal.

 The result, whileia congress every dils- tory tactic known to parliamentary
