Harriet Monroe, the Chicago poet and
journalist, being asked, about her idea
of the best way to place her poems before
the public, replied: I believe in doing
yerv much as Eugene Field did. That is,
in giving my poems to the newspaper On
which I am employed and in never volun-
teering contribution to any periodical.
Mr.. Field, you know, never offered his
poems to editors; he always let them
order verses from him when they wanted
them.

NJ. Barthelemy Saint Hilaire, the
famous French scholar and politician,
who recently entered on his Goth year
full of intellectual and physical vigor,
has been telling the inevitable inter-
viewer how it is his days are so long in
the land.
1t is, we are told, "early to bed and
early to RISE" with steady work during
waking hours. Every grand old man
seems to have a secret of his own. Mr..
Gladstone attributes his longevity to his
habit of taking a daily walk in all
weathers and to his giving thirty-two
bites to every morsel of food.
Oliver Wendell Holmes pinned his
faith on equability of temperature. The
late Mai. Knox Holmes swore by the
tricycle., which in the end was the cause
of his death.
Some aged persons give the credit OF
their long lives to abstinence from to-
bacco, alcohol or meat; others to their
indulgence in these things. One old
lady of 120 OF thereaboutS maintained
that single blessedness was the real
elixir vita and she ascribed the death
of brother at the tender age of 80 to
the fact that he had committed matri-
mony. NJ Ferdinand de Lesseps be-
lieved in horseback riding. while James
Payn complains that one can get too
much horse.
Among the champions of horseback
riding was also Thomas Carlyle, who
groomed his horse as well as rode it.
On the whole, it must be concluded
that the real secret of longevity is a sound
constitution prudently husbanded.

Where His Strength sufHced.

"One of the queer things of life" says
the sharp observer. sis the way in which
mems wishes will control their bodily
health. stopped not long ago at a
farmhouse in the Maine woods region.
where the occupant had mineral fever,
or to put it in other words, firm belief
that precious metals existed in the
lodges on his land. On other subjects
he was in feeble health, but say gold or
silver to him and he was ready for any
amount of exertion. The wood pile
was scant and the housewife had to do
both the chopping and bringing in of
the wood. The man, when requested
for an armful of wood, languidly ex-
cused himself because he was too weak
to comply. But within ten minutes of
the refusal he went half-mile over
rough land and brought to the house a
rock supposed to contain ore that was a
heavy load for strong man and seemed
none the worse for it. it."-LclOfSt0'o NE.

GOOD HEALTH is CHEAP,
A German Specialists Advice to a Pam.
pered Beauty.

Some dainty-minded poets and novel
lists of peculiar taste have shown marked
preference for the lily-skinned maiden
and openly deplored the vulgarity of
hearty red cheeks as becoming only to
milkmaids and the gardener daughter
says DemOrests Magazi1ae. That may
be all very well in poems and novels,
but among the stern rea tiles OF life the
smart young woman prefers a high,
clear color that owes nothing to art but
everything to nature. Now, unhappilv,
it has been found that the more fashion
able the life young women i've the more
quickly they lose their schoolgirl rosi-
ness, u phenomenon that has caused
serious consideration among the afflict-
ed. Electricity, massage, etc, have all
been tried in vain. In no instance has
the cure for pallor proved permanent,
and it was in something of despair the
more energetic and hopeful resorted to
famous specia ist Just come to town.
He is a tiny, mild-mannered but iron
willed little German doctor, to whom
the secrets of nature seem wholly re-
vealed. He contemplated his wan
checked patients and remarked, calmly,
that sweets and ice-water were at the
root of the trouble, augmented by too
much driving in victorias, broughams,
coaches, etc.
Not enough honest leg exercise" he
said, firmly, and proceeded to draw out
daily course of exercise that made the
poor patients shudder.
"WalK!" he calculated. Never put
your feet in the horse cars. cabs or
carriages if you can help yourself. Walk
five or six miles day, and-let me see
your shoes"
A dainty foot, incased in a pointed,
patent-leather tie, was put out for in
spection.
Get these feet into high buttoned,
round-toed, heavy-soled caIfskin shoes,
and not only don't be afraid of rain and
snow but go out in the storms. Wear
gooshes, a macintosh, a glazed hat, but
do not carry an umbrella. Take the
snow and rain into your face; that's
good for the skin. Don't let a grain OF
sugar pass your lips. Drink your tea
unsweetened and favored only with a
slice of lemon. Bonbons, desserts any
sweetened dishes whatsoever. must be
refused utterly; also never never drink
a drop of any fluid with your meals.
Avoid ice water as if it were poison, but
take whatever amount of water you
need an hour after eating. Toast every
crumh of bread, sleep eight hours and
don't touch drop of any medicine, OF
Ill not treat you"
1t is a stern regimen, but the little
physician is right, and the color is come
ing back into faces hitherto too pale
even for the poets taste.

TEN O'CLOCK LINES.
The Way the Indians Have of Reckoning
Their Lands.

The most original and primitive way
of marking boundary was probably
that of Queen Dido and her colony,
when they stipulated. before the found
ing of Carshage, for as much land as
could be enclosed by bulls hide,
says the loa4th's Companion All
tribes be onging to the infancy of civili-
cation have like peculiar modes of
reckoning.
From a point near the mouth of the
Miami river extends, northwest through
Indiana, boundary known as the ten
o'c,ock line. This is one limit of an In
dian grant.
When the tribe had agreed to cede a
portion of their territory to the whites,
a meeting was held for the purpose of
martling out the ground. A surveyor
was present, and had mounted his COM
pass and telescope on a tripod. The
head man of the tribe went up to the in
struments, stared steadily at them for a
while, grunted, and returned to the cir
Gle about the council fire. Not word
was spoken by any one.
Soon another Indian rose, walked
sedately to the instruments, gravely ex-
amined them. grunted, and returned to
his place by the fire. This example was
followed by half dozen others, after
which short consultation was held.
The chief then approached the white
men.
That what Indian know" he said,
drawing small circle on the ground
with a stick. THAT what white man
know" he continued, drawing larger
circle outside the first. "That what no.
body knows" pointing to what lay
without the last circle.
''White man knows that" he went on,
Indicating the instruments. "Indian not
know it. Indian know the sun. Him
never cheat. Him always same. Him
throw shadow. Indian give white man
land one side"
After long consultation, it was decided
that a line drawn in the direction in
which the sun would cast shadow from
an agreed point at 10 o'clock should be
made the boundary, the white man tax
ing the land on one side, and the Indians
keeping that on the other.
The other boundaries of the conces-
sion were those of the original territory
of the tribe, supplemented by water
courses and other objects.
Such lines have been frequently used
in concluding bargains with the red
men, and have become known as 10
o'clock lines.

The Cuban Smokes Everywhere.

have never seen a Havana man
smoking in church. It's about the only
place where he does not smoke. He
smokes in the street cars, he smokes at
the public dining table, he smokes every
where. The presence of women is not
considered at all. When coffee is
brought on the table the Spaniard or
Cuban lights his cigar or cigarette and
begins to send up clouds of smoke He
never even thinks of saving to the
ladies, "By your leave" for the custom
of the country is to smoke everywhere.
On the railway trains there is no smok-
ing compartment, for q man is privi-
legged, and, in fact, expected, to smoke
everywhere. If he is not smoking his
neighbor will offer him a cigarette
The driver of your coach will smoke
and very likely offer you cheroot. At
the opera the men will walk and smoke
between the acts in the spaces behind
the boxes and balconies You will see
finely dressed, seemingly well = bred
men, with ladies' in full evening toilet,
entering the theater, and smoking as
they 60. You never see pipe in
Cuba. 1t is the country of the cigar
and the cigarette. One of the odd
sights to a stranger is that afforded by
the negro women, who smoke big long,
and black cigars in the street. 1t was
here that the smoking habit, which has
spread around the world, had its start,
and the Cubans are still more devoted
to their cigars than any other people.
The cigar industry and the tobacco trade
give employment to large portion of
the population of Havana. In every
quarter one will run across small estab-
lishments where from two to ten men
are employed making cigars, and some
children and women engaged in strip
ping tobacco.
There are many large factories, en-
ploying, some of them, several hundred
men and women. Some of these
factories make cigarettes, as well as
cigars. The cigarettes are made out
of strong Cuban tobacco, but have the
negative virtue of being pure, un-
tinctured tobacco. In every house or
office building the porter, who sits in the
entresol, is engaged all day long in
rolling cigarettes. He has little table
in front of him, where the tobacco and
paper are spread out, and he is con-
stantly at work. In this way the porter
adds to his income. A vast quantity of
cigarettes are smoked here, as we'll as
cigars. When the Cuban is not smoking
cigars he is smoking cigarettes. - Wash

STREET AcRoBATs IN JAPAN.
Clever Little People Who Do Almost I'm
possible Tricks for Small Pay.

During a jinrikisha ride along the
streets of any japanese city the traveller
is almost sure to see a group of young
street acrohats, quaint little peop gro
tesquely dressed. Their ages will range
generally between 3 and II years, and
all have been regularly trained.
Their dress consists mainly of loose
trousers. bright-colored jacket. and a
peculiar head dress. The trousers are
baggy, made of a strong material re-
sembIing blue and white bed ticking,
and tied at the ankle. The jacket and
shirt are bright and conspicuous.
The front of the head dress represents
the half-opened mouth of a dragon,
while the back is ornamented with many
cocks plumes. From under the head
dress falls curtain of thin red mate
rial. thrown carelessly back over the
shoulders, the whole being securely
held on the head by piece of red cloth
which ties underneath the chin.
These little imps are always laughing,
full of fun, ever ready to play harmless
jokes on one another. Some of their
most skillful antics says the Youths
Companion, will be followed by simply
throwing themselves into ridiculous po-
sitions, intended solely to keep spectat-
ors in good humor.
You are startled to see them suddenly
stand upon their heads, heels in air, or
bend backward until their saucy little
faces viii be seen inverted between their
knees. Again, they will walk on their
hands, and quite unexpectedly change
from this position, rolling and tumbling
over each other, jumping, kicking or
prancing, and trying in every way to
attract the attention of the passer-by.
One of them continually beats small
drum and sings at the top of his voice,
doing his best to add to the din. Their
entire performance is given in the hope
of earning few rin-a small copper
coin, worth less than the tenth of an
| American cent.
When foreigner passes the little ac-
robats redouble their efforts, for they
know that they then stand chance of
getting silver coin.
These little people have often followed
my junkisha for a long distance, con-
tinuing their gymnastics, and some
times their persistence becomes trouble
some Always hoping for an additional
coin, and being ever ready to work for
it, they carry out the deep-rooted prin-
ciples of the japanese character-indus-
try, patience and perseverance.

Is This True?

1t would seem very simple thing,
but the grace and po.iteness and gen.
tleness of speech which distinguished
the woman of the chivalric age are now
almost Who'll y unknown. When women
talk of the decay of chivalry in man
they forget that men are what women
make them. Men are the exact rehec-
tions of their mothers and sisters and
wives. Through the history of the men
of tie past we have accurate knowledge
of the character of the women of that
time AS it is impossible for the fount-
ain to raise higher than its source, SO it
is impossible for men TO rise higher
than their mothers, wives aud sisters.

The truth is that our modern pessim-

merciful provision-always in the long
run, suffer the most, though it may
often seem otherwise. And no observ-
ing man will deny that this is compara-
lively an age of cowardice. At any
rate it is an aye of an8sthetics. Those
who, like Mr.. Henley, chant The Song
of the Sword" are at least so far right
and we may well pray for the spirit OF
