There was nothing between the little
vest and his bright bronze skin. He
had a blue cap embroidered with gold,
and his eyes we're darkened with khol.
He was drawing lines very neatly on

dress. He threw off his dhotee and his
sarong, keeping on his loincloth only.
With outstretched arms he placed a
heavy copper pot full of water ON the
ground, took 1t up between his teeth,
and without using his hands, tilted his
head back till the water poured all
over him In a shower, which splashed
up from the pavement, sprinkling the
spectators In the front row. Next he
tied his dhotee round the Jar, which he
realled and fastened the end TO his
long hair. Then, simply by turning

The Seattle spirit is a thing to adj
mire and initiate. 1t was manifested
when the secretary OF the navy told a
Seattle firm that their bid must be re-
duced to two hundred thousand dol
lars If they wanted contract for one
OF the new battleships. That was final,
and in many places the people would
have said, Too bad we've lost III" and
gone about their humdrum business
Not so in Seattle. The strong men OF
the city conferred; the builders offered
to scale down their bid If their fellow
citizens would divide the loss. and the
Seattle business men promptly sub
scribed the hundred thousand dollars
and four thousand over. These
things being understood, we fancy no
body will begrudge Seattle the con-
tract which will so richly benefit the
manufacturers, mechanics and trades
men. She has demonstrated her pos
session of that public spirit by which
city grows great.

BY reason OF It's vast wealth and I'M
