A description Of the clothing worn
In cold weather by the hairy Anus,
those strange little Inhabitants OF
farther Siberia and a part OF Japan,
Is as follows:
The only material or which they
ever have a complete suit Is fish skin.
Such a suit is sometimes elaborat@ly
though coarsely embroidered. The
resemblance between this embroidery
and that OF the North American In
dams is very remarkable.
How the skin is prepared Is still a
puzzle to me. Though thin, it Is very
tough and has more pliability than
might be thought possible. Shoes
even are made with 1t, but not ex-
clusiyely of 1t. 1t generally forms
the lining of the uppers.
The thicker clothing Is grotesque-
ness itself. For medium garments,
especially for the covering OF the
back and chest, birch bark is used,
other material being stitched to it,
For the coolest weather the clothing
is much like that of the Eskimos and
the Kamchatdales. The grotesque-
ness of 1t arises not so much from its
shape as from the variety Of the ma
terials.
In one OF these Joseph's coat dresses
were mixed patches OF sable, bear,
deer and fox skins, including the
tails, in haphazard fragments, while
behind and before there was under
meath all these a large piece Of birch
bark. The bark, / afterward found,
was intended incidentally as a pro-
lection against accidental shoJs from
poisoned arrows which the Anus use
more in winter than in summer In
their hunting excursions

JOHANN MosT, of New York, open
ly advocates the use of the knife by
the assassin as surer than any other
weapon he can employ. 1t is such
beastly, cowardly ours as Most who
keep out OF dangers way and urge on
the more daring and reckless OF his
class. If this Falstafiian anarchist
were sure OF being kicked around a
block every time he urged the taking
OF innocent human lives he would
win beer ana tobacco by some other
plan than the running Of an assassi-
nation organ. 1t Is dificult for even

A FINE touch Of the romantic is
that story just told OF the meeting In
the wastes of ocean of the two Yam
kee shippers, fathe: and son, who
have not met for six years until
chance brings their ships together
the other day just after rounding the
Cape of Good Hope. The son recog-
nizes the fathers ship; he dips his
flag. The paternal skipper takes hts
wife In the long boat and they go to
see their boy. "How are you, pop?
How's things?" And they eat a
friendly piece Of pie and separate
again as composedly as IL the encoun-
ter were by chance on the street.
Verify, they who go down to the sea
in ships soon learn to be surprised at
nothing.

IT is to be noted that the various
armies of the unemployed do not in
clude any considerable number OF
farmers. Such consideration, the
Ploughman thinks, should cause the
young man to hesitate before leaving
the farm for one of those other occu-
pations which have felt the times so
severely. The farmer does not be-
come rich In day, nor does he often
become tramp or pauper.
