Treating Himself.

Inc PARTISAN critic, III. Jules Claretie,
narrates in the Athenoem an anus
ing story of the elder Dumas: At the
height of the great ncvelists vogue
he could not turn out books fast
enough to satisfy his clamoring pub
fishers, and it became necessary for
him to employ collaborators, to whom
he sketched the plot, perhaps, leav-
ing them to do the rest. Among the
most distinguished was NJ. Paul Meu-
rice, who is still living and writing in
Paris at an advanced age Thus it
came about that NJ. Meurice was the
author of one OF the most amusing
novels Of Dumas, Les Deux danes. +"
Dumas when travelling found this
novel in hotel and opened it to pass
away the time. He began reading it
seriously. got interested in it and was
amused. Presently some one came to
his room and found him with LES
Deux DANES" in his hand. What are
you doing there, dear niaster?" Il am
reading" said Dumas, "a novel Of my
own which / did not know, and which
pleases me vastly" 1t was Dumas
who said when left to himself. Il am
never bored when l have my own COM
pany" 1t is easy to see that he was
not more so when he had that of others
and did not know it.

contraction King let one heart drop
to the left lilac region, where | clearly
heard the beating; then let the other
heart drop to the right lilac region
where its beating was so plainly heard
both beating in the lower part OF the
abdomen in unison. Next, King threw
over the interior of the abdomen a wall

every evidence Of having two stern

movable at his will and seems TO lie
behind the regular breastbone when IN

With golden clash OF shield and spear,
singing for only gods to hear:
And her who on the trumpefs blare
Gang Angels Ever Bright and Fair"
Her voice, her presence, where she stood
Already part Of Angelhood.

The strain where nrst-love thrilled the

Beneath the priesthood OF the stars;
The murmur of soft lullabies
Above dear unconsenting eyes;

Football In Ceylon.

A novel game, very much like foot
ball. is played by the Mslays of Ceylon.
The ball is made Of split cane woven
hollow, and is called "ragang" (pro-
nounced raw-gong) in Malay. The
game is know by the same name, and
consists in keeping the ball in the air
by series of kicks, aiming at throw
ing the ball on the ground on the ad-
versary's side of marked or imagi-
nary line. The hands are not used ex-
cept in throwing the ball for the flrst
kick. The kick is peculiar one and
requiring great agility in the player and
is assisted by the whole body. Bal
ancing on one leg, the other Is thrown
violently forward and upward, semi
circularly until it touches the ground,
the body being swayed at the same
time. following the direction OF the
foot. AS one foot touches the ground
the other is ready for the return KICK,
the toe being raised almost as high as
the head of the player. This KICK Is
called "cheeadee." or Chinese kick, and
is evidently borrowed from the Chi
nese. whose favorite mode of assault IT
is-often accompanied simultaneously
with SLABS or cuffs from both hands
in quick succession, thus giving an aa-
sersary little chance of retaliation.

Boiling Water without Fire.

It is possible to make pail OF water
boil without putting it on the fire and
without applying external heat to it in
any way In fact, you can make pail
Of water boil by simply stirring it
with a wooden paddle. The feat was
recently performed in the physical lab
oratory OF Johns Hopkins University
In Baltimore, Nd, and any one may
DO 1t with a little trouble and perse-
verance. All you have to do is to
place your water in pail-it may be
IN water If necessary-and stir il with
awooden paddle. If you keep at it long
enough 1T will certainly boil. Five
hours constant and rapid stirring are
sufficient to perform the feat success
iully. The water will, after a time,
grow warm, and then it will grow hot
so hot, in fact, that you cannot hold
your hand in it, and finally it will boil.
Professor Ames of Johns Hopkins, an
nually illustrates some of the phe-
nomena OF heat by having one of his
Students perform the trick in front Of
his class. 1t is tiresome job, but it
perfectly feasible.
The point which Professor Ames
wishes to illustrate is what is known
as the mechanical equivalent of aeat.
requires just so many foot pounds
OF work to develop a given quality
OF heat. By turning the paddle in the
water at regular speed it is posi-

JUST A TRIFLE MIXED.

Archbishop Chappeile. OF New Orleans.
apostolic delegate to the Philippines,
Cuba and Porto Rico. Is beyond ques-
ton a most able and brilliant man. as
we'll as most popular socially. but he
seems to have mixed his metaphors"
as it were, in his discussion with Gen.
Funston. The archbishop says:
He tGen Funston) Is quoted as saying:
The inhabitants Of Iluzon are completely

how can this be possible when every priest

the island OF Luzon, outside OF the walled
city OF Manila, is a prisoner Of the insur-
gents? For the past eighteen months this
state az affairs has existed. and during
all this period more than three hundred
and Atty friars have been undergoing un-
heard-of torture In the dungeons"
Continuing his statement, the arch
bishop further along remarks:
Whatever the natives are Or have. they
owe To the friars. BY them they were lift

seems To be somewhat of a reflection
upon the blessed and refining infu-
ences Of Christianity" and causes some
degree OF wonder as TO the uplifting out
OF savagery Of this particular lot OF
Filipinos. at least.
Again the archbishop quotes Mr.. Pey-
ton, the agent Of the Episcopal Foreign
Mission Association. who says: THE
natives are the most moral and religious
people on the face Of the globe" Yet
they have had for eighteen months more
than $50 friars In their dungeons under

archbishop would not have Us believe
there is anything either moral or re-
ligious In that sort Of business.
