which the samoan Belle
Refaaes tn Wear.
Refnaes 30 Wearl

In spite OF the simplicity of national
attire-the single tapa Iaya-iava, or
loin cloth, worn by all, both sexes
alike-the Samoans spend great deal
OF their time beautifying themselves.
The body is CREASED with cocoanut oil
and the hair is often plastered with
white lime and reached up pOmpadour
style, giving it when dry the effect
OF the judicial wig worn by English
barristers. The lime is washed off
at night and renewed from day to
day. The result is Il gradual change in
the color of the hair, which, in under
going the bleaching process, passes
from a coarse, coal black, through
brick red to bright yellow. The eff
feet of this brilliant contrast with
their shiny copper skins is grotesque
in the extreme, but in their dark eyes
surprisingly beautiful.
Neither sex is overburdened with
clothes. The common dress for beth
men and women is the already men
toned lava-lava, a kind of kilt or
piece of drapery wound about the
waist in a manner whose adjustment
seems to foreigners nothing short of
miraculous. The adults, however,
seem to have no difficulty in keeping
the lava-lava in place, but the child
rem are less expert and careful of
theirs, and often lose the scant scrap
of cotton stuff that serves as an out
of-door costume. Children of all ages,
indoors, and babies in arms every.
where, wear no clothing at all. This
kind of garment-or drapery, per-
haps, would be a better word for it
is, in slightly varied form, common
to most South Sea islanders, as well
as Inhabitants of the Indian archi-
pelago and the southern countries of
Asia. It is called by the Malays a
saroQg, and its name differs in diff
erent groups of Polynesia. The
Kings of Singapore. CeyIon, and the
Malaysian peninsula wear it loose or
straight, while the Burmese and Siam
csc tuck it up something after the
the manner of the well known infan.
tile accessory.
The fnery and gimcrack adorn.
ments of civilization are now gaining
foothold in Samoa, as elsewhere in
the track of commerce, particularly
with the feminine heart, and it is not
unusual to see Samoan lady gor-
geously arrayed in fine mat lava
lava combined with a ball gown waist
or velvet basque cut Wrecked, or
with her hair done up empire style
and wearing, to complete her toilet,
string of ferns around her waist and
necklace of sharks teeth around
her dusky throat-bust arms and
limbs bare-promenading with all the
refreshing grace and conscious airs of
Bridget on her Sunday outing, the
observed of all observers. But there
is one shackle of civilization they
positively refuse to accept-shoes and
stockings. Perhaps, however, this is
because they can find no covering
large enough for the aboriginal ''tril-
bies." Nevertheless, in one of the
fights in which our native allies par
ticipated L observed one warrior
proudly wearing a pair of sixteen
button black silk stockings extending
above the knees, with his huge black
feet protruding beyond the soles,
which were worn through. He had
doubtless looted them from some
European house, whose owner fed
when hostilities began.-San Francis

BILL AND THE MULE.
Together With the Old Mans Idea OF
Their Intelligence,

L had been riding around over the
the mountains since early morning
looking at timber and exploring roads
leading to it, and about 3 o'clock in
the afternoon, when L struck the
main road again, | met long-legged
mountaineer walking by the roadside
with staff in his hand and a yellow
dog at his heels. He stopped as I alp
preached, and knowing what that
meant, pulled up to learn what he
might want.
Scuse me, stranger" he said, let
ting that pass for the %sual saluta-
ton, ''but have you saw anything in
yer travels uf my boy Bill an =
mule?''
1t was rather vague proposition,
and 1 asked for plaps and specifica-
tionS.

One OF the hardest troubles the
Populists and Independent voters
have Is to reason with Ministers.
Most of them are Republicans.
their fathers were republicans and
they can see no wrong in their cho
sen party. Trusts may raise pri-
ces onitheir living, the money pow
er may squeeze. but their king Is
right anyhow, Most of them are
.prohihitionists and have their tenn
perance meeting, vet election day
stand shoulder to shoulder with the
whiskey man in their voting, and
last week when the National Pro
h1bltion convention passed resolu
tons strongly centur1ng President
Mckinley for his anti temperance
work these ministers hold up their
hands in holy horror and shout tor
their COP, It is such hide
bound actions that make their TEN
perance meetings shams; is why
saloons run open all over prohibi
ton Kansas.
Here is what the Prohibition
platform says
- Eve charge upon President
Mckinley. who was elected to of
fee by appeals to Christian senti
ment and patriotism almost unpre
cedented and by a combination of
moral influences never before seen
in this country. that by his conspict
uous example as a wine drinkerI
at public banquets and as a wine
serving, host in the White house,
be has done more to encourage the
liquor business, to demoralize the
temperance habit of young men,
and to. bring Christian practices
and requirements into disrepute
thar any other president this re
public has had; And his apparent
contempt for the vast number of
petetions and petitioners protest
ing against it. he has outraged 6
insulted the moral sentiment OF
this country, IN such a manner
and to such a degree as calls for
its righteous uprising and his in
dignant and effective rebuke."
