Dutch Kloompers.

One Of the queerest sights which | saw
in Europe was row of wooden shoes
outside the door of Dutch farm house
on Saturday morning. There were the
big-sized shoes of the farmer himself,
the middle-szed shoes of his good vraow,
and several small-sized shoes of the
children; and all the line had been
scrubbed and freshly whitewashed in
preparation for Sunday. There are many
kinds of wooden shoes worn by peasants
in Europe, but none are more clumsy
and heavy than the "kloompers' Of the
Hollanders. They are boat shaped with
high wooden projections to the heels,
and curious little upward twist to the
toes, like the PROV of n Chinese junk
But heavy and awkward as the shoes are,
the Dutch children run about as lightly
as if they were shod in Cinderela's glass
slippers, and do not seem to object in the
least to the clicking sound made by the
shoes on the pavement. One of the most
extraordinary sights in the world is line
of little Dutch boys playing leap-frog in
their great noisy wooden kloompers.
Having formed row of frogs" from
one end of theiy village to the other, the
boys begin to jump in the usual agile
way of the players of the lively game.
AS soon as the line is in motion most
tremendous sound startes the village.
The oldest inhabitant can hardly "hear
himself think, but he knows that the
noise is not thunder; it is only the rattle
of the boys wooden shoes as they strike
the hard brick paved street. $50 IIarper's

THE bushranger of Australia and our
own Western road agent have objects
and methods of business in the main
identical, but they differ in minor details
and in their distinctive slang. The un-
fortunate traveller who meets a Western
road agent is ''held up" his experiences
with an Australian bushranger would be
practically similar, except that he would
be "bailed up" while if he met one of
the craft in New Zealand he would be
''stuck up"
THE somewhat prevalent idea that the
supply of ivory is narrowly limited, and
that it is likely soon to be scarce
article, is declared by correspondent
in London Field to be entirely incorrect
The writer says that in Central Africa
the chiefs have so many tusks that they
do not know what to do with them, and
in some instances the kings surround
their houses with stockades Of ivory.
In return for gift of a uniform coat,
cooked hat, and a sword, a State officer
recently received from native potentate
$50 tusks.
AN American physician, poor fri' nd
of his professional brethren at home, is
writing to medical journals in England

ing such surprising assertions as that
no practice is ever considered purchase

A DOCTOR in Kentucky had a horse

follow her about like a dog, while still

Then they built their bridge, just working Cor
an hour by the sky,
After which they all marched over and all fell
to eating pie.

Fate of Incendiarles In Japan.

The incendiary's lot in Japan is not a
happy one. When caught he is at once
handed over to the excutioneer. BY this
official the cul prit is buried in the ground
up to the neck A cross-cut saw laid on
the ground close by ready for use, and
then the eXecutoner goes away for few
days on other duties. During the inter
val any passer-by is Mt liberty to assist
the excutioner in his duties by taking a
few cuts with the saw across the pris-
oner's neck, When the executioner re.
turns, If there is any necessity for it, he
leisurely completes the task by saving
the mans neck from his shoulders. It
is then fastened to pole and placed on
exhibition In the ne,ghboriug village OF
town The custom, il is claimed, Is
calculated greatly to discourage the
practice Of setting property adre New
York News.

The Cat in Ihibet.

Tue cat is treated by Thibetans with
the most marked attention and forbear-
ancc. Even when it spills milk breaks
or destroys any valuable object, or kills
some pet bird, it is never whipped or
beaten in any way, but merely chidden
and driven away by the voice; while
were dog or a child to commit these
offences. they would be soundly
thrashed.
Such very mild and considcrate treat
ment might lead one 70 suppose that the
cat Is esteemed holy. But such 10 not
the case. It Is, indeed, regarded as %
useful animal. 10 the extent that il con.
