MENTAL TENSION.
Hard to Realize the Difficulty of
Keeping Natural Pose.

We never know how active our i'm
aginations can be till we let them out
or till they get the better of us for
recently admitted that when he went
into action for the first time he was so
scared that he did not know which
way was north, but he had an over
whelming desire to reach it. wherever
1t was. Yet, after six or eight battles
and after being wounded couple of
times. he regarded battles very much
as people hereabout regard the evening
fight at the Manhattan end of the
bridge, says the Brooklyn Eagle.
Cases of wanting to run when bullets
fly are by no means difficult to find.
But a young soldier in Brooklyn con-
fesses to more queer experience. His
regiment was in camp and had been
ordered out for dress parade, as usual.
When lined up for inspection, every
man as stiff as a ramrod and not a
white glove moving, this young man,
a lieutenant, began to ask himself:
Suppose l should slip, or anything. to
break the quiet? Suppose l should
fall?" The idea of falling kept grow
ing in his mind till before the inspec-
ton was over and the regiment was
allowed to use it's feet once more he
could hardly keep on his legs and was
in great sweat of agony from the
dread Of tumbling over and making an
exhibition of himself.
People who have never tried it do not
realize how hard it is to stand abso-
lutely still and yet appear interested
and at ease Artists models succeed
at it, especially those in Italy, and will
hold pose not too difficult for an hour
Actors, when they group about the man
in the center Of the stage, who is en-
joying all the limelight-and how they
hate them for it-are required to keep
STILL so as not to distract attention from
the great mans sayings and notions
and because they must group in such a
way as to form picture and keep it
till it can be realized by the eyes in
front. But this enforced statuesque
ness is hard on the supes. They are
not used to it. When they are put I'M
der the strain, and when as Roman
warriors they must stand at the back
without winking while Brutus or Vr
ginius or some other ponderous person
unbosoms himself respecting love OF
politics, they are in small torture
One such last season who could no lon
ger abide it to listen to the sOliloQuy by
the head man pitched over on his face
and had to be logged out by the arms
to the spelling of the scene.

Babies Never Get Seasick.

said an American line steward, accord

theirs, mothers, brothers and sisters
keel over like soldiers before a cannon
ball: but not so with the babies.
Whether it be rough or smooth at
sea, a baby is always an excellent
sailor-rosy, jolly and with the appe-
tite Of a horse. Do you know the eX-
PLANTATION of this singular fact? 1t is
as simple as the fact is strange. Ba-
bies don't get seasick because they are
accustomed to the rocking of the era

rocking of ship. A baby aboard ship,
therefore, is merely baby in an un-
usually big cradle, and there is nothing
odd to him about the rocking, for it is
what he has been accustomed to all

Ugly HindOo Women.

The men among the Hindoos Of Bonn
bay are by all odds handsomer than
the women, the fashion among the lat
ter of wearing in the left nostril Il huge
hoop of silver adorned with precious
stones not tending to enhance the
modicum of beauty they already pos
sess. This ring is often so large that
the mouth and chin are covered by it.
The married women also chew the
leaves of the betel palm, and so their
teeth and lips are stained a vivid and
disagreeable yellow.
Caste, that strong divider Of class, is
indicated on the women by stripes Of
various colors on the forehead. Their
arms, which are mostly bare, are fanci-
fully tattooed, and their toes and
ankles are ornamented with silver ban
giles and rings. This latter ornamental
ton is shared by both sexes. In down
right ugliness many of these women
approach closely an American Indian
sQuaw.

Morocco We're at one time required to
make the customary Obeisance of the

omitted. The reason, according to La.
dy Grove in her "Seventy-one Days

that prescription.
A distinguished naturalist had been

breath quickening. A bare half dozen
other couples dared to follow them.
Few were so straitlaced as Grand
mother Wills in the matter of dancing.
Still there was 4 general feeling that
Quadrilles, or at most cOtillOnS, were
the proper things for big public COM
panies. Even the Radley girls waltzed
only at home.
John felt himself grow hot as he
watched Augusta and young Fits
through their madly gay rush. No
harm in it, of course but she had never
waltzed even with him. His brows
drew so portentOusly together Rose Lee
smiled significantly as she came up
behind him and touched his arm. Evi-
IDENTIFY she had it in mind to say some
thing something little bit out of the
common. But great gathering stir
at the arbOr's farther end silenced her.
A family carriage, rusty and ancient,
had drawn up there, the horses painting
and flecked with foam. Out from the
door of it strobe an awful figure,
Grandmother Wills, in dead black, the
plumes Of her best bonnet nodding
hearsewise over her forehead. AS she
caught sight of Augusta whirling half
inclOsed by strangers arms she gave
cry that silenced every string and
brought the sparse dancers up stand
ing.
For half minute no words would
come. Then, with the kissing fall of
molten iron, she cried: "Wanton!
Shameless wanton! Never, never shall
you darken my doors again"
All in flash Fits appeared to com
prehend. Lightness fell away from
him. He stood upright and said clearly
Madame, l have the honor to ask your
granddaughter in marriage"
"Who are you? l do not know you
II have no granddaughter" Nine
Wills said Jelly.
Gussie had grown white. She left
Fits and went close to the furious old
woman, saying as she bowed her head

for my mothers sake-and your own
Let me go home with you. 1t was
wrong to trick YOU
Madame turned away as though she
had not heard. Softly Fits held out
his hands. Before Gussie could reach
him John had leaped to her side and
was holding her close in the face of all
the world. you're a trump, but mine
is the older claim" he said holding out
hand to Fits. who wrung it hard

The young man smiled a superior
smile and gracefully Lighted a tinted

'Besitzes' is a new word in the lam

for all the other words-or, rather, 1t
is word which may be used to ex-
press the universe in it's infinite en-
and everything, separately or together
is 'besitzes.' The purpose of 'besitzes'
is to relieve monotony of diction in
the classics Of the future.
'Thus the reformer will protest
against the 'besitzes' of political abuse;
historians will allude to the ancient
Roman 'besitzeS' of Julius Caesar; the
poet will sing the sweet 'besitzes' Of

Worshins a Big Rag Doll.

Carrying In his arms "a huge rag
doll, dressed in the clothing of his
dead wife, Jerry" Mooney, farmer
living near the village Of Montague
Lewis county, N Y, goes to his work
in the fields each day.
For fifteen years, ever since his wife,
Molly, died of paralysis, Mooney has
carried this dummy about with him.
He refuses to believe his wife is dead
After her burial he made rag woman
and dressed it in his wife's clothes.
He often places the figure in the fay.
orite chair of his wife and spends
long evenings before the fire talking
to it. At meal time he draws the
chair containing the figure up to the
table and helps it to food. On Sundays
he dresses the figure in the best
clothes his wife had at her death, gets
out all of her jewelry and places il
about the neck and on the hands Of the
doll.
Week days when he goes to the field
the rag doll is carried by him and
placed under the shelter Of a tree in
summer or in some protected spot in
cold weather. He always carries lunch.
con for himself and the doll and never
eats the latter's portion.
Mooney and his wife came from
Londonderry, in the north Of Ireland,
in the early sos and settled on a
small farm. They were rigid Cove.
nanters and, having no children, liv.
ed by themselves. When his wife
died in 1883, neighbors, not seeing her
about, called at the house and found
her dead in bed and her husband sit.
ting by the side of the body talking
to her.
Mooney will permit no one to enter
his house. The existence of the rag
woman was discovered by persons who
watched the house and saw him car
rying it back and forth from the fields.
On all other subjects Mooney is ra.

1t is a wonder which has become q
commonplace that each OF the millions
OF men and women in the world has an
appearance SO different from all the
others as to- be easily recognizable
among the throng. The rare exception
to the rule, as in the case of those twin
brothers one of whom died recently In
Boston, is regarded as little short Of
mira culous, although in reality the
miracle is in the usual unlikeneas, in
stead Of in the occasional likeness. To
be sure, all Chinese look alike to Amer
leans, but it is equally true that all
Americans look alike to Chinese. The
fact doubtless is that the distinguish
ing variations are not the same for
the two races. We look at two Asiatic
faces, and seeing them alike where
Caucasian faces are different, do not
notice the unlikeness in other and uG-
expected details. The prevalent idea
face is open to discussion. We speak
Of a typical Irish or Italian face, as If
it would be recognizable under any
circumstances. But do not dress, the
fashion Of wearing hair and beard, the
attitudes due to occupation and the
complexion due to climate play very
large part in the composite picture
which we call type? Certain it is
that although there may be a chara.c-
teristic American voice Or figure, there
ic no distinctive American ia go This
may be accounted for by our miscella-
neous forbears, but it is quite likely 80
be explained by our widely varied lives
and occupations, even among those
belonging to the same social plane. The
recogniza bic handwriting of each man
and woman is another curious ard
wonderful fact. The forger becomes
clever, not by accident, but by long
and severe training; and even he is
soon discovered. The subtle expression
Of personality which is the work Of the
brain debating to the sensitive hand
is as varied as the microscope shows
hand and brain to be. IN short, the
amazing variations in personality SO
far to make credible the Christian
faith that by an intelligence capacious
enough to contain them all, the human
units may be distinguished as easily
as we, with out limited powers, may
distinguish our friends.
