People with Leather skins

The inhabitants of Terra del Fuego are
a remarkable people. Although the
climate of the island is cold beyond endur-
ance to the average individual, they go
about naked in all seasons. This is partly
accounted for by the fact that they have
nothing on the island wherewith to clothe
themselves The snow melts on taeir
skins, but they do not mind; generations
of hardy forefathers havesuccessfully con
verted it into the toughest leather.
They win stay out all night and sleep in
the snow without suffering in the slightest.
Cold and wet are entirely immaterial to
them.
Their skin, in fact, is of leather and
their constitution Of iron.

THEY DIED TOO SOON.

Duncan F. Smith in Chicago Record
George Washington was president and honorcd in
his day.
He was the father of the land and all things came
his way.
lie had basketful of fun a wagon load ofhime
But he never was a rooter at a baseball game.
Napoleon conquered half the world and had
crown of gold,
And in his time his cup just full as II could
hold
1t looks from here as though he should have had his
share of fun,
But he never strained his vocals when the home
team won
And also Julius Cesar who had his share of sport,
He won score Of hattles and always held the fort
He killed off lots of people. regardless of the cost
But he never sugged the umpire when the home
team lost.
And also Alexander. lie turned most every trick,
And then shed tears because there were no more
worlds LEFT to lick.
He climbed way up the ladderas high as people
get,
But he never pawned his scepter to pays baseball

Road Wheels.
From the Boston Transcript.

The Listener" is greatly pleased to see
that park department wagon has been
introduced with wheel tires six inches
broad and the wheels so placed as not to
track. The result of the arrangement is
such that this wagon is rolling and smooth
ing down constantly an expanse Of road
two feet wide at every moment when in
motlon-except when it is turning in a
circle. Though the wagon is large and
heavy, it certainly did not seem to be any
harder to draw than any other wagon of
its weight; undoubtedly it would be more
easily drawn than wagon with narrow
tires under ordinary road conditions. 1t
is the arrangement of narrow-tired wheels,
which follow in the same track, that ruins
most of our roads Such wheels make
ruts, and all other wagons follow in the
ruts. This wagon of the park department
makes a great advance, and the example
ought to be generally followed. Let US
get out of the old ruts and have some
good country roads

viotopa Supply Hard-Aoiled Eggs.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
There is a strange custom attendant
upon local elections, which has existed in
Brown township, Delaware county, Ohio,
for the last 80 years 1t is that of eating
40 dozen hard boiled eggs on election night
at the expense of the successful candidates.
Neither the bill of fare nor the number of
eggs Is ever varied. Each year committee
is selected to secure the eggs and.prepare the
feast. When the count is finished the
eggs are passed around and the banquet
begins The persons who are elected foot
the bill. Party feeling never interferes
with this part of the election proceedings,
and it is an unwritten law that the feast is
to be furnished. But one man ever dared
to brave popular sentiment and refuse to
pay his share Of the expense. He had
been elected by a good plurality, but was
turned down at the next election for no
other reason than his want of respect for
the custom. The election for the town
ship is held at the little village of Eden,
where the greater part Of the township is
gathered on the night of the feast. No
one knows how the ceremony originated.

It is a somewhat singular fact thao the
rarest of all noses is that fonnd where one
would naturally expect to find it, in the
middle of the face. Taking 100 heads
at random, one viii not find, on an aver
age, more than three in which the bridge
of the nose descends perpendicularly from
a straight line drawn exactly between the
eyes.
