rher 1.-Two In Tree ronn.

The natives Of New Guinea live In rec
tangtlar huts, which they buiid OF the
trunks OF trees bamboo, leaves and ribs of
leaves and bast made OF lianas. In the
mountains, where rain is frequent occur
renee, the thick, high roofs OF these huts
reach almost TO the ground, making them
much more clumsy IN appearance than
those situated nearer the warmer coast.
But the most astonishing pecuIiarity
which strikes the explorer in the ucighbof-
hood of Finchhaven is tnat of the ''trce-
houses,' which, however, are not used for
habitations in the ordinary sense of the
word, but serve as fortresscs and places Of
retreat in case of war. II is scarcely sa fe
TO visit these ''castles in the trcc-tops,n for
the weak, sky-hjgh rope-ladders, made of
the best Of lianas would scarcely inspire
any one with confidence enough for the un-
dertaking
In some parts along the coast the huts
are built on posts, which is not done to
make them easily defcnsible, but to protect
them from the dangers of food. Toward
the inland, away from the Astrolabe Bay,
these houses are unknown, and the villages
are built upon high ridges of mountains,
which are almost inaccessible and easily
protected against enemies. The water
which they use has TO be carried from long
distances by the woman, who occupy the
place of slaves.-St. Louis Post Dispatch.

Compromise.

Editor Critic; As three out Of the four
cities presenting their claims as the place
in which to celebrate the Quadri- Centennial
must, according to present plans, lose the
exhibition, why not compromise?
Give TO Washington the function of cele-
brating the great event, aud let 1t have, in
the permanent buildings to be erected, the
exposition of the products of Central and
South America. Let Atlanta display the
products of cur Southern States; San Fran
cisco, those of the Pacific Slope; one or
two cities, those of the great Valley, and
New iork, those of the Eastern States.
Let the United States Government
give to such fair liberal aid
In 1898 eliminate from the Washington
buildings those exhibits of the Southern
Republics which are of temporary charac-
ter, and place them (enlarging the building

ducts of the four sections of our empire as

language to most people.

vcloped then Is the proper time to be

fore, begin at the wrong end by study.
ing some special line of athletic work
before they have brought their bodies
into condition that suits them for
training. The result Is that after they
have learned to do special feats they
cannot maintain their strength without
constant practice simply because the
body has not been prepared for unusual
development Now, | claim that no
man needs to undertake special eXer-
cises to retain his strength. There is
sufficient exercise in ordinary move
ments Of the body during the day, no
matter what mans business Is, to
keep him in perfect health. More
over, If he has been developed accord
ing TO my theories, he will find that his
appetites are normal, that he will have
no temptation TO overcat or ovefdrink,
because The stomach will not accept
more than is needed.
Il have had pupils over forty years
old who came to me with small chests
and immense abdomens. and in the
course of eight or ten weeks have en-.
ablcd them TO dispose entirely of un-
necessary fat and increase the chest
measurement from two TO four inches
All this is accomplished by the simplest
actions in the world, beginning, as
have said, with breathing and carriage
of the body, a proper method of walk
ing, STOPPING and standing, There are
certain movements to go through, but
at no time is the pupil required to cx-
ercise with any mechanical contrivance,
not even the dumbbell These move
ments are simply exaggerations of the
exercises of the body in ordinary bust
ness. 1t seems to me that system Of
this kind should be introduced into
schools, for / am certain that it would
tend to make the children grow up
stronger and healthier than they do
now, and that, of course, would be an
unreasonable addition to the comfort
and prosperity of the whole race. Ply.
sicians always recognize the soundness
Of my views whenever bring the mat
Ter 10 their attention, and hope some
day to publish a treatise which may
serve for text book for all who would
be interested in making the most posi-
bl C out of their friends.

IA JAN. 30, 1890.

Tomorrow, Friday, will
be regular weekly remnant
day and the last day before
stock-taking, as we begin
to take an account of every
thing in the store at 6
o'clock tomorrow night.
We propose to make Friday
a fitting climax to one of
the most successful special
sales we have ever inaugu-
rated. In the face of Janu-
ary being the dullest month
of the year with the posi-
bic exception of August).
and the unreasonable and
unfavorable weather, we
have been comparatively
busy the entire month.
True, we have offered the
best bargains of our expert
ence by making great price
reductions, yet to day we
have made greater, as we
are determined to reduce
the stock to the lowest pos
sible point before to-mor-
row night.
The Dress Goods which we marked down
from tOc to acc, from 75c to sec and from 81
to 55c per yard would cost us more at whole
sale to-day. yet they must 60 in order to make
room for the new Spring Fabrics now on their

tages of frequent visits to the store. Yester-
day we marked down miscellaneous lot OF
Velyets to 25c per yard threw them out on a
remnant counter and in a few hours they
were gone. Tomorrow is the last day OF
| such sacrifices.

Are Red. Headed Men Famouss

Editor Critic: / have query to pro-
pound to you, which was suggested to me
in rather peculiar manner this morning.
was passing one Of the public schools
about recess time, when noticed number
Of toys In angry dispute. A little red
headed fellow seemed to be the centre of
contention, and Judging from the frowning
faces and clenched fists it looked as though
the young juvenile was going to get a
humping. While was contemplating the
scene. queer-looking individual, wearing
eyeglasses and slouched hat well back on
his head, with a shawl around his
houlders-stepped up to the contending
boys and, striking a Lawrence Barrett
attitude, exclaimed:
Against that boy raise not your hand,
For he may be famous man.
OF course, this was very luGicrous and
laughable, Mr.. Editor, but it flashed the
thought into my mind whether there had
ever been a famous red-headed man; |
don't mean an auburn or ''sandy"-haired
one, Lut red-"red to the rind,n as your
watermelon Arab advertises his fruit in
the dog-days of August. If your mem
ory can recall some really illustrious man
who had red hair Il mean a world-famous

afford sense Of satisfaction to many good
people who have not achieved greatness,
yet have cardinal top-Knots.
