did not appear and the agents repre-
sentative came over to the village to
see that all was ready for the white
woman's reception. he found to his hor-
ror and amazement that all the men
but the chief, Huanata, were in their
customary state OF undress. The chief,
by way of exhibiting his possessions in
the way Of clothes, was literally COW
cred with shirts and trousers, all put
on in the most helter-skelter fashion,
in addition to which he had big pack
on his back.
The outcome Of this was that the
governors wife did not visit the ma
tives at all, whereat they were much
disappointed, for they had smeared
themselves with cocoanut oil to make
up for the want Of clothes.
The Papuan children mature very
early. Boys become men at the age Of
fourteen, and girls of twelve look like
full-grown women, but this is the case
with the people Of all hot countries.
Next to the boys and girls of the ma
tive Australian tribes, those of New
Guinea impressed me the least favor
ably. CAPTAIN Tom.

Many of Those Written Expressly
for Them Are Most Injurious.
In looking over the catalogue Of
publishing houses, one is surprised to
note the number OF books published
exclusively for boys. and the number
of juvenile or so called, "boys' periodi-
Gals, that one sees on the news-stands
is surprising. In looking over these
vast numbers of books and periodicals
the thoughtful observer must ask him
self low young people can find
time to read even part of
these innumerable publications and
at the same time do justice to their
studies 1t is lamentable fact that a
great majority of these books and
particularly of the periodicals are
pernicious in the extreme. While pre-
tending to give stories of travel and
adventure, they are written as a rule
by INSCRIPTIONS authors" who have
never visited the countries they at
tempt to describe, or the stories of So
called fiction are so forced and unna-
tural as to give false and dangerous
ideas of life to the young reader.
1t is not well, perhaps, to con6ne the
child or youth exclusively to the dry
details of text books, yet the fact cannot
be concealed that in proportion as they
read outside works, even of high or
der, they are untitled for close appli-
cation to study.
There are few books, like Robinson
Crusoe, Captain Cooks Voyages, The
Arabian Nights and works of such
character. as have become classics in
our language, are Incorporated in our
everyday speech, and must be regard
ed as part of every liberal edu-
cation. But outside of these
the parent should exercise as
much care in selecting what children
read as in what they wear and eat,
more indeed, for defective clothing or
unwholesome food cannot have such an
injurious effect as the reading that de-
moralizes the intellect and degrades
the character. Teachers and parents
should carefully look into this matter,
for the success of the scholar and the
character of the future citizen depend
10 a large extent on what they read in
youth.
AS matter of fact, the publishers OF
a majority of the books and periodicals
referred to are making fortunes in a
way far more reprehensible than the
manufacturers OF poisonous cigarettes.
An attempt has been made to control
by legislation the smoking or rather
the sale of cigarettes, but there has as
yet arisen no statesman with the pere-
tration and forethought necessary 10
enact law for regulating the books or
literature that are now poured in de-
moralizing torrents across the pathway
Of the young.

The Duse Turban.

Besides the prim, straight brimmed,
plainly trimmed sailor hat which has
nothing the least fancy about it but its
name-the hat which so many women,
matrons included, wear so comfortably
and becomingly when they would per-
haps look and feel absurd in most other
shapes--is the neat little Duse turban,
model not unlike modified English
walking hat, with a low round crown
and a pretty rolling brim that is unlike
the English walking hat proper, in that
the Duse brim does not roll up close to
the crown, but broadens more on each
side, making it particularly becoming
TO slender faces. A veil fastens over it
gracefully and comfortably, and it is
just the shape to accompany tailor COS
tune for shopping and walking, and for
travelling it is most admirable. The
shape described is easily recognized, It
different milliners give it different
name. 1t was, however, called original
II after the actress. .-Milliner.

AMONG THE PAPUANs.
A Glimpse az the People of New
Guinea-Interesting Sketch by
Captain Tom.

ussGed by the Central Press Association Of
Columbus, Ohio.l
New Guinea Is one Of the largest
islands in the world. 1t was visited by
European sailors more than 200 years
ago, yet because of the ferocity Of its
warlike tribes and the density OF its
forests, We know but little about that
remarkable country, beyond the coast
line.
The people are of dark, chocolate
color, some being quite as black as the
negroes, whom they much resemble.
Their hair is long and bushy and they
give much time to its care. Before a
great feast, chief will have half
score men and women working on his
hair for days, and when it is finished

with feathers, shells and red clay, ii
often measures several feet in circum-
ference, and the structure, with little
fixing, lasts for months.
The parts of the shore where / Wis.,
tied were Port Mowbray at the south
eastern end, which is claimed by the
English, and the coast along the Dour-
ga Strait to the north, which no nation
claims, and where the people build
their houses in the branches of trees
and are such expert climbers that they
have been called monkey men" by
sailors who have visited that part of
the island.
There are many tribes on the island
speaking different dialects, but many
of the customs are common to all.
There is no danger there of a mans
heirs quarreling over the division of
his property, for, as soon as he dies
everything he owns is at once burned
or otherwise destroyed. 1t is also the
custom to buy wives, the woman's IA
ther setting the price, and regulating
it. not by the girls looks, but by her
size and her ability to cook and keep
her husbands thatched hut in order.
The English have an agent and keep
a gunboat at Port Mowbray, and it was
my good fortune to be the guest of the
Englishmen, through whose kindness
learned great deal about these, the
most remarkable savages in the world.
Like all the natives of Polynesia, the
people of New Guinea who live along
the coast are expert canoe builders,
and are quite as much at home in the
water as on shore; indeed, it is said,
the children can swim before they can
walk, and the children of nearly all
savage tribes can walk before they are
six months old. The Papuans-t that is
the name applied to the race of black
islanders-are said to be very treach-
erous, but they impressed me as being
happy, child-like people, fond OF sing
ing and laughing, loving to bask in
the sun, and hating nothing but hard
work, of which they have not much to
do, for fruit and fish are abundant, and
as for clothes-well, the climate does
not require clothing, and SO long as
their bushy heads are done up in
gorgeous fashion, the people consider
themselves in fnll dress.
At the other side of the bay from
Port Mowbray there is a native village,
and here I had the privilege of spend

MONKEY MEN OF DOURGA STRAIT.
ing q few days under the protection OF
chief, or head man, named Huanata.
This man, because he was chief, had
six wives and so many children that he
did not pretend to know them from
anyone else children, as they ran naked
and shouting along the white, she'll
strewn sand.
A very funny thing happened during
my visit to this village. An English
lady Of note, the wife OF the governor
of New South Wales, was expected to
visit Port Mowbray and ''to take I'M
the native village. AS it would never
do to have the chief and his followers
appear in their customary want of
dress, the agent thoughtfully sent over
q lot OF shirts and cotton trousers, tell
ing Huanata he and his people must
put the things on during the visit of
her ladyship, and the chief piously
promised to do as he was told.
AS none Of the men had ever worn o
shirt or trousers before, they had great
difficulty in getting into the things.
Some of the men wore the trousers
with their arms through the legs, and
others wore the shirts by tying them
about their waists by means Of the
sleeves, and most laughable and gro
tesque appearance they presented.
The children really looked better
without any dress, and the women at
all times wear an apron of woven sea
grass. Now, it SO happened that the
lady did not come at the appointed
time, and 80 the men soon began to
weary of wearing their trousers about
their necks and their shirts about their
waist.
Like all savage races, and some civil
lied ones. the Papuans are insatlable
. gamblefs. By means OF q sort Oh fice
they gamble away all their possessions,
not many to be- sure, but their cadoes
and implements for fishing and the
chase have value. The shirts and
trousers were too tempting property
to remain long in the possession Of the
men to whom they were given. Al
the lady did not come when expected,
the natives began to gamble, and as a
consequence by the time her ladyship
reached Port Mowbray the chief, who
was the most famous gambler along the
coast, had won oil the shirts and trou-
sers Of the other members OF the tribe.
