A Funny Language.

The native dictionary of Samoa is in.
seresting In the light it casts upon the
Samoan character. 1 find IAN impossi-
bility, such as an old man getting a
young wife," Another word means Ito
beg deliriously for fishhooks." "Un-
welcome" is given, "such as a visiting
party that is accompanied by neither a
handsome man nor a pretty maid"
The definition Of "widow" or widow
err is synonymous with detached she'll
fish.
There are also definitions that show
considerable thought and irony. "Mean-
ness" for instance, can go no further
than Ito climb out on your own bread
fruit tree to steal your neighbours
breadfruit." Faapuatama, like trum-
pet blown by wild lads, blown anyhow
and all times; so conduct without con-
sideration. Popoga, to look owl eyed,
as person staring when food or prop
erty is being divided. "Good brown
earth" describes an honest, unpretend-
ing man. To show how difficult the
language is for the stranger I may say
that the little word ia means I, we two,
to beat with stick, to play on a mu-
steal instrument, to reprove, to tattoo.
to open a vein, to bail a cannon, to
wash clothing by beating and to turn
y mersault.-Century.

Her Vanity.

Some years ago a marble sculptor
had his place of business on Penn ave-
nue. near Ninth street. A business man
lost his wife, and he ordered tomb
stone for her grave from the sculptor.
1t was to be a life size study of her.
The figure was finished in due time and
placed in the cemetery.
Several years passed, and the figure
had not been paid for. The sculptor
was a man of business, not given to
sentiment, and he took the figure out
Of the cemetery, placing it on exhioi-
ton in window at his place of bust
ness. 1t naturally attracted good deal
Of attention, and one day a woman in
passing stopped to look at it. She rec
ognized the figure, but to make certain
went in and asked the sculptor and
found that she was correct.
The woman shook her head and said
sadly, "Ah, Mary Jane was always a
vain critter, but I never though she
would go this far Pittsburg Press.

Where Four States Meet.

1t is queer to think of the possibility
Of being in four states at once. yet
there is one spot in the United States
the only place in the world-where it
is possible. Look on your map Of this

and you will find an intersection be-
tween two straight lines, where Colo
RADIO, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona
meet.
The place is not often visited, as it is
not easily reached. The stone erected
there by the government surveyors is

populated by cliff jewellers, but now
there are no human beings within miles.

Tea In Kashmir.


There are two ways of preparing tea
in Kashmir. The first is to put the tea
in pot with cold water and boil it for
half an hour, when more cold water is
added, after which it is boiled for an
other half hour. Milk is then added
and it is ready for drinking. The Sec
ond is to place the tea in pot with a
little soda and water and boil for half
an hour as before. Milk, salt and but
ter are then added, after which it is
boiled for another half hour, when it Is
ready.

MI. Claudy's Talk on "Parsifal."

Mr.. Frank Claudy, president of the
Washington Sangerbund lectured in Eng
lish last night to an audience which filled
Saengerbund Hall on Wagners great opera
"Parsifal" The talk developed the story
of the opera, Its history, and the thematic
construction of the famous third act was
heard with the closest attention.
Parsifal,' said Mr. Claudy, lis never to
be performed outside Baireuth until the ex-
pration of the copyright which will occur
after lapse of thirteen years. That copy
right was willed by Richard Wagner to his
wife, Cosima, and all productions of the
work at Baireuth are under her personal
supervision. 1t would be difficult for Amer
leans TO conceive the beauty of these per-
formances The stage at Baireuth is 12G
feet deep, 10 feet wide. and 130 feet high
The largest stage in Washington is 56 feet
deep. 10 feet wide and 90 feet high This
expanse of stage area is supported by the
most effective stage appliances. No foot
lights are seen. The orchestra is hidden
The audience does not leave it's seats be-
tween the acts, and follows the opera much
more intelligently and more attentively
than the average American audience In
considering the third act Of the musical
drama Mr.. Claudy dwelt particularly on
the charge that it was blasphemous in con-
ception, and denied the charge emphati-
caily.
