HUMAN HEAD HUNTERS.

This Horrible Trade.

This Horrible Trade.
In the scarce known islands Of the
Pacific sea - New Guinea, Borneo,
Ceram, Gilolo and others too numer-
GUS to mention-man still exists in the
primeval state, and that most horrible
Of practices, head hunting, Is still in
dulged in in spite Of all efforts Of vari-
Gus governments and missions as well
as philanthropic societies who have
come in contact with the people.
Just as the scalp lock on the belt Of
the young buck Indian was a token Of
manhood, SO the CORY head impaled on
tall pole over the hut Of the would be
young warrior, Papa or Dayak, pro-
claims to all the pre- uess Of the youth,
henceforth man and eligible for the
council and the wooing Of the maidens.
1t is immaterial how the trophy be OBJ
tanned. whether by ambuscade or in
fair battle. Generally 1t is the former.
The candidate for martial honors SIM
ply waits his chance by night in some
peighborlng village as craftily and pa.
tiently as leopard on tie prowl. the,
Kris or a poisoned arrow does the Work

deed is discovered and calls for retri-

Thus.Sn incessant vendetta and car

accessible forests and strongly stock.
AIDED places is it possible at all for
the tribes to save themselves from an.
initiation. OF the vast island cont.
nent of New Guinea the western or
Dutch part is the worst looked after.
and it often happens that numerous
raiding parties in their great war ca
noes come swooping down the coast
before the northwest monsoon and
carry death and desolation into the
comparatively quiet British portion
around the mighty Fly river, opposite
Torres strait. BY the time the news
Is carried to Thursday island and the
gunboat starts away In pursuit it Is
generally too late. and the marauders
have vanished.
The writer was present once at the
capture Of war party, and forty
eight heads were taken from the ca.
noes. Hanging and deportation to pc
nal servitude seem to be but slight
deterrent for the terror recurs almost
as regularly as a plague of locusts.
These Papuans are hardy, warlike
people and expert bowmen, and they
rely on their skill with this potent
weapon solely, using their clubs for
the dispatch Of wounded foes. -""''~
The Dayaks of Borneo and their
neighbors, on the other hand, are in
favor of the "sumpitan" or blowpipe.
shooting little diminutive but very cum
ningly poisoned arrows. The "sumpi-
tan" has often spear head attached
to the outer end, like bayonet on a
musket. For close fighting they rely
on the dreaded "parang," heavy. hol-
low ground broadsword about two feet
long, with the handle often carved Of
ivory and ornamented with gold and
pearls, the wooden scabbard covered
with human skin and hair.

form very thick gum, and set the
pot in which the gum was melted at
the back of the stove, where it should
remain all day and night, so that the
contents may practically stew. Next
morning place the gum jar in basin
of hot water, and mix into the mu-

until the salts be dissolved. then, still

New Providence, Iowa, July Little
Helen Moon, the 3-year-6ld daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Il. V. Moon of this place,
had narrow escape from death.
Her mother noticed she seemed to be
very clumsy and complained when she
was rocked. Her limbs and face were
bloated badly.
A doctor was summoned, but she got
no better. He said she had Kidney
Trouble in the worst form.
Two other doctors We're called in and
they agreed that there was very little,
if any. hope. She was bloated all over,
her eyes being completely closed and
her abdomen bloated until it was pur-
pie.
They bought six boxes OF Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and she commenced to inn
prove at once. She had used nine boxes
before the Dropsy was all gone. The
treatment was continued and now she
is as well as ever.
Dodd's Kidney Pills certainly saved
the little ones life.

TO HAVE MORE FIGHTING MEN.
Russian Army is to be Largely In
creased in the Near Future.

The Russki Invalid publishes a high
ly interesting review of the develop
ment of the Russian army in 1901, al
though no mention is made of certain
measures which point to the resolve
to increase Russia's military strength
both in Europe and in Asia in the
near future, says the London Globe.
For example, the review omits to re-
fer TO the very great increase in the
number of the troops set apart for
protecting the Manchurian railway, for
the troops have been raised to 300
men with % guns, and the rise in the
number of recruits called up is omit
ted. In 1899 and 1900 increased pay
and also a quicker advancement of
the subaltern officers, the latter inno-
walton permitting these officers to be-
come captains of the first class after
serving four years in each grade, came
into force. A proposal has, been laid
before the commanders of the military
districts with regard to the promotion
to the rank of lieutenant colonel. One
fifth of these promotions are to be
made by vote, and rt-fifths by SEN
iroity. Officers unfit for service are to
be retired. With view to raising
the average education of officers the
cadet schools have been brought more
into line with the military schools;
the first year of the three years
course is to be devoted to general ed
ucation in military science, as is the
case in the military schools Hence
forth the students in the cadet schools
will not be allowed to proceed
straightway to the rank of officers.
New regulations as to the marriage
privileges of officers have come into
force as the result of the many i'm
provident marriages. Thus, officers
cannot enter the marriage state be-
fore they have reached the age of %
years, and unless they can prove that
they possess yearly income OF at
least 1900 roubles, or 1872 pounds, and
in no case can an officer marry unless
