The Hottentota.

When the Dutch landed at the Cape
two centuries ago, the most important
In number and most widely spread of
the natives were the Hottentots, a
small wiry folk, with yellow faces,
black wool in little hard knobs on the
head. protruding jaws, low foreheads,
and small eyes. Their condition Of civ
ilization was not high compared with
that of many other African peoples;
they had large flocks and herds on
whose flesh and milk they lived, but
they had little agriculture. Their round
houses. made of slight wooden frames.
with mats fastened over them, could
at any moment be taken up and re-
moved and the little clothing they
wore was Of skins. But they were a
versatile. excitable, lively little folk,
as their few remaining descendants are
to-day, rather gentle than fierce. and
very emotional. and loving dancing and
song

TRAVELLERS TALES


In Ceylon there is a mountain over
1,OOO feet high, which is named after
the first man. The summit is a bare
mass of granite, ending in a narrow
platform. upon which is hollow some
hFe feet long and two and half feet
broad, bearing a rough likeness to a
mans foot step. According 10 the Mo
hammedans. after Adam had been
driven from Paradise, he stood on this
very spot for one thousand years, do
Ing penitence for sin. and so caused
the mark. The BudGhists say this is n
mistake, for the footprint was made
by their holy teacher, Prince Buddha
when he left Ceylon. Not to be out
done, the Hindoos claim ii as the foot
mark of their god, silva. However all
that may be. every year crowds of de-
voices of these different creeds flock
to the peak as to sacred shrine

Paper Making in Corea.

1t is not generally known that the
best kinds of paper met with in China
and Japan are the produce of Corea.
Varat says that 'the Corean paper ex-
cells the very best that is made in
China and Japan. 1t is produced en-
tirely by manual labor, and without
the use of any machinery. The raw
material used for the better kinds is
obtained from the bark of Broussonetia
papyrifera, which is collected in spring
and beaten in water containing a large
mixture of wood ashes until reduced
to thick pulp. This is taken in large
ladies and spread upon frames of bam-
boo so as to form thin sheets An
other paper is made from old scraps
trodden into pulp much in the same
way that grape juice is expressed il
some countries, and though this proc
ess of pulping is slow, it has the ad-
vantage of not breaking the fibre so
much as when machinery is used. A.
ter the pulp has been made into paper
the sheets are piled up to a height of
six feet, and then cut into pieces, to be
again subjected to the stamping with
the feet At the same time the roots
and seeds of a plant called "tackpouT'
are added, the soluble parts Of which
are supposed to give tenacity and
toughness to the paper.

Parrot stories are always good so
long as they are true, says the Phila-
delphia Inquirer. And, OF course, none
but a true parrot story ever finds its
way into print. A well-known resident
of Tioga is telling one which he de-
clares he is willing to stake a hard
earned reputation for veracity upon.
This particular parrot is the property
!. OF Tioga household, the head of
hich is inordinately fond of a quiet
game of poker. For years it has
MA@~ custom to get three or four
or his friends together at least twice a
week in the snug library of his house
and while away four or five hours OF
an evening by means of scent ante
with quarter limit The parrots cage
hangs in the same library, except on
state occasions, when it is taken into
the dining room. The mans wife is as
devoted to the church as he is to his
favorite game. She never misses 4
meeting and as often as the good man
will come, has her pastor at her home
or Sunday dinner. He was there two
three weeks ago. So were a num-
Sper of other friends of the family. The
nester of the household presided over
he dinner and the conversation was
lively and yivacious as the sanctity
the day would permit. The clergy

NOTICE TO PAREN rs OF
SCHOOL CHILDREN.

1t is now we'll known that a
common drinking cup is frequent
eonyeyor Of infection, especially of
such diseases as diphtheria and
typhoid fever. 1t is hoped that
parents of school children will pro-
vide their children with individual
drinking cups and instruct them to
never loan or borrow,
The slate also is a dirty, noisy
article aud paper tablets can be OBJ
tained so cheaply that there is no
excuse for any child using slate
II the parents will interest them
selves in these seemingly trifling
details, they will materially aid in
preventing disease and in the sue
cessful conduct OF the school.
