enough to wear his Abyssinian CO.'S
tune in the streets of London, and the
small boys shouted rude remarks when
he passed by. 1T is a land without
manners or decency" he said. indig-
nantly. I'VE in Abyssinnia couterous-
ly receive European travellers in their
strange garb, and anybody who mock
ed them would be severely punished
by the Negus. But when 1 told an
English prince that his own soldiers
had laughed at me, his guest, he only
said: oh, you must not mind that! it
is a way they have. 1t seems that the
princes have no power in this land.
The common people-sons of dogs with
the habits of pigs-are kings"
The courtiers told off by King Ed
ward to look after the Ras tried to
efface the memory of his humiliation
by giving him good time. They show
ed him arsenals, dockyards, theaters,
cathedrals and everything they thought
would impress him. 1t was of no use.
He asked the question most barbarians
ask: do these things make you hap
pier or better men?' The theaters and
music halls shocked him terribly. How
can you go TO these places to see wom-
en- dance shamelessly. half-clothed?'
he exclaimed And not only go, but
TAME YOUR WIVES anu CHliuESH. 1Ou
make puppet show of vice, and then
you call us uncivilized. If this is civ
ilization, if the drunken men who
swarm riotousiy in your streets at
night are produced by civilization, We
Abyssinians had better remain barba-
rians,"
Ras Makonnens disapproval of the
soubrette is shared by most barbarians,
especially if they are good Mohamme-
dams. A Moorish visitor in Marseilles
was even more shocked than the
worthy Abyssinian. cit seems horrible
to me-" he said, that your European
women walk with uncovered faces in
the streets, and talk to me openly and
shamelessly as they choose, even con-
tradicting their own husbands. But the
women on the stages of your theaters
well, cannot think of them without
shame"
This same Moor was taken to a ball
in Paris by a French friend. In silent
dancing together, and at last confided
to his friend that in a truly civilized
country like Morocco such women
would be deserVedly strangled. His
| hostess, taking pity on his loneliness,
asked whether he would care to dance
with her; but he sternly refused to
| have anything to do with proceedings
which he considered utterly depraved.
In an Indian hamlet in Venezuela
lives a well-educated Guaraguanes In
| dian, who had paid a visit to New
York. Asked by traveller what he
thought of that city, he replied: 1T is
a wonderful place, truly; and full of
marvellous things of which 1 had not
even dreamed. But the men who live
there must verify be accursed of God
and the saints. How can there be any
happiness in their lives? They are al
ways rushing to and fro madly, as if
a jaguar pursued them. Better the
trees of the forest than those tall
| buildings which shut out the sun. Why
| do men-wealthy men, 1 am told-im-
prison themselves in those buildings
all day long? Is that the way they
were meant to live? Are they not
wasting their lives in vain pursuit of
| gold, which will do them no real
| good?"

and the only sound from the hunters
was the heavy painting of the lungs
There's one out there to the left
about a rod added 'Cogg'; and he's a
good sized one, too, judgin' from the
whir of his rattle
This is the den right here above
u.s. explained 'Cogg,' and it's all in
about half an acre. If you happen to
step on a RATHER, stand still, don't
jump. He can't bite you If you stand
on him, but look out for him if he gets
loose. A RATHER isA as quick as fire
when he gets ready to strike. and he's
q good deal like ightnin', too, for he
don't strike twice in the same place.
There was a rustling in the leaves,
and heard the dull 'pung' of the fork
ed stick in the earth. Monroe had
pinned a three-foot rattler to a shelv-
ing rock where his snakeship had been
summing himself. The merciless fork
ed stick pinioned the serpent about five
inches back of his fiat head. The pink
mouth opened wide, the slender, grace
full neck arched, and then the head of
the vicious and angry snake darted like
an arrow at the fork that held him a
prisoner. One could hear the poisoned
fangs strike the stick. Then the mot
tied, brown body of the snake writhed
and coiled around the forked stick.
Hold him. cried 'Cogg,' till the
visitor sees how the squirmin' devils
act when they are caught. This is an
ugly one. and full of fight
Half a dozen times the RATHER. every
moment growing more enraged, shot
his rangs into the ash fork and with
ed to free himself. and all the while
rafting his anthem of rage.
q Guess it's time to finish him. said
'Cogg,' and the veteran snake hunter
jabbed his fork close behind the snakes
head. Now beat his head off, doctor.
and theren be one less RATHER in the
den.'
His head was beaten to a pulp and
the body thrown on a fiat rock, where
feebly his tail ratified.

now said Lee. Hear them rattle up
there above in the ledge
Yes; they heard the rattle of the
one we just killed. explained 'Cogg,
and they know something is after
them. That rattle is more to tell other
rattlers that there is trouble around
than it is to warn you before they bite
you. A 'tarnal lot these snakes care
about givin' you a warning. They
don't shake them rattles for you. but

81 began to feel nervous by this time
for 1 could hear that nerve racking
whir of rattles all around, and thought
that every stick that stirred underfoot
was a monster RATHER.

Lee, as a two-foot snake skunk sui

hole in the ledge. I managed to get
my senses together by this time, and

food always used to ferment instead
of digesting. Crossness. unhappiness
and nervousness were very prominent
symptoms.
Late in the summer went to visit
a sister and there l saw and used
Grape-Nuts. l had heard of this IA
nous food before, but never was In
terected enough to try 1t. for | never
knew how really good it was. But
when l came home we used Grape
Nuts in our household all the time and

health. ! improved steadily and am
now strong and well in every way

Improvement in my mental power is
very noticeable and l get good marka

AN OLD MAN IN A NEW BODY.

A few weeks ago 1 saw two men
talking to each other in the entrance
of big Chicago office building. One
was ar old man in an old body and
the other was an old man in a new
body.
Knowing both men, but not seeing
much of them for year, was made
to stop and wonder Mt the new body
A few days ago had train talk
with a third man. who happened to
tell me where the man in the new
body got his body.
For year this man with new body
has been playing golf, in a park near
his hcme, before going to his office.
He kept at it as late in the fall as the
weather would permit. and he started
as early in the spring as possible.
Nearly all parts OF the body are re-
newed every few years and some parts
are renewed every minute. Daily ex-
ercises which recrecte better than be.

HORSES TIED TO HOLES.
Unique Method by Which Indians
Secure Their Ponies.

1t has been discovered that the
desert Indians, who have never been
accredited with superabundant wit.
have for many years employed a
method OF tying their horses to holes
In the ground that is clever. unique
and effective says the Los Angeles
Herald.
The operation is performed in this
way: Keeping on the hot sands the
Indians dig with their hands. which
are about as hard and impervious to
pain as a dogs paws.
They work energetically until they
have made a hole about two feet deep.
Then they tie an immense knot In the
end of the halter rope. lower 1t Into
the bottom of the hole. fill the
hole with sand and then jump and
stamp upon 1t unit the earth over the
knot Is about as hard as sandstone. 1t
is a curious performance. but the skill
of the idea merits applause, for 1t may
be of practical benefit to many n
weary traveller whose horse is his only
living companion in some heartless
plain. where he clings to his ship.
Instances have been related ofade-
sert travellers. who. completely ex-
hausted by the heat. tied the halter
rope about a leg. an arm or the body
and lay down in the hot sands to rest.
AS they slept the animals, crazed for
water. became like wild things and
plunged madly away, dragging their
human anchors to destruction and
death.

FOOTBALL PLAYERS RUSH.
Dashed Into Crowd and Injured Sew
cral Spectators.

A sensational accident in the Iowa
Grinnell football game at Grinneli
last month resulted in severe injuries
to four spectators. one man sunering
broken leg. Jones Of Iowa. one OF the
heavy players OF the team. In an enu
run. in which he was going at fuli
speed. ran too close to the lines OF
spectators, and. lodging one OF the
Grinneu men. plunged head-foremost
into the crowd. -,
Jones dove into the spectators ike
a battering-ram, head down, while
dozen men fell under the impact. and
Others. carried OF their feet. swayed
and fell back on the struggling men.
Panic followed, and several more peo-
pie were injured in trying to break
through the ranks behind them and
get away. When the panic subsided
and the injured people were assisted to
their feet Jones was found at the bot
tom of the mass. unconscious and seri-
ously hurt 1t was some time before he
could be revived. One Of the specta-
tors had his leg broken and several
others had sprains and fractures.

A Lesson for the Dentist.

A little girl. suffering with tooth.
ache was in his chair to have the tooth
removed. She refused to let him
proceed at first. being afraid of the
pain. 1T won't hurt you. little one" /"
said the dentist. There. now, open
your mouth, it won't hurt" Half a
minutes work removed the tooth, and
as the little girl cried softly the den.
tist said Didn't tell you 1t wouldn't
hurt? What do you think of me
now?" Looking up at him with her
big brown eyes she replied: Il
think you're the biggest liar in town"
The dentist has quit telling people

TO FoReTELL THE WEATHER.
Peculiar Superstition That Has Vogue
In France.

in France.
A very curious method OF making
weather predictions has been discov-
cred by an cid French farmer.
"On Christmas eve," he says. when
the bells begin to ring for midnight
mass. take twelve onions and place
them in a row on a table. The first
onion will represent January. the sec
ond February. and so on. Next make
a large slit In each onion and pour
some salt into 1t.
''If at the end of an hour you find
that the salt in the March onion has
melted. you will know that there will
be much rain In March, and. on the
other hand. II the salt in the April
onion is not melted. you may be cer-
tain that April will be a dry month.
Moreover. IL the salt in any onion
is melted at the TOP. but not at the
bottom. the first fortnight OF the
month will be wet and the second fort
night dry."-New York Herald.

ABOUT BABIES
AND CHILDREN
Be Kind
Be Kind Be King
Be Kind

How TO abandon foolish theories and
continue growing is the question.
Common advice is about as useful
as uncrackcd cocoanuts are digestible
One mother confesses that the
theories which were successful with
her first three children were entirely
annihilated by the fourth.
A million babies daily cry for
drink of cool boiIvd water.
Smile on the baby Just out of nap
and show happy face when picking
Il up.
Good rules may have so many excep-
tions that they become dangerous In
common use.
One mother asked another, who had
one-year-old baby. what she had
been doing the last year. Her reply
was that she had been giving her
theories a respectful burial.
The baby should receive 'discrimi.
mating attention. Foolish and unnec-
essary worry that endangers the
health of the parent. and dangerous
carelessness which harms the baby.
are the extremes to keep away from.
A father of a large family reported
d
their house At one time they had a
two-year-old, pair of one-year-old
twins and a pair of one-monthoid
twins. The neighbors had to help
little occasionally on sewing but the
children grew up to marry well and
win independence. They were bright
and smart-they had to be to get out
of the way OF each other.
Recently one case has been placed
on record where a baby was smoth-
cred in bed while sleeping between its
parents.
At an afternoon reception. while
several ladies were exchanging baby
wisdom. these reports were given; II
have Just heard from our friends with
the new daughter. their first child.
They are so afraid that something
will be wrong with the baby that If
she sleeps they think she is dying,
and they sit up and watch her, and II
she awakes and cries they are sure
she is dangerously sick. They have
hard time dressing her. The father
wan sure the nurse put the little vest
on over its feet. but the mother sue
ceeded in getting 1t on over its head"
A baby is an appetite framed by
nature.
Almost all articles on babies take It
for granted that the children are to be
brought up on bottles, and yet there
are five babies in one neighborhood
taking natures solution. 1t may be
that babies like these five do not need
any editorial assistance.
Charlie'e wife writes us this: THE
lord doesn't send any babies to this
home. ! guess he thinks | don't know
mach about taking care of them. But
do love the little folk"
Can you tell by haby's cry whether
It is pin, pain or spunk?
Baby's first attempts to use its
hands are as humorous as young
mans first attempt to use his heart.
What about adopting children9
When should che childless prefer re-
sponsibillty and doing to only giving
charity money? Are there principles
TO go h?
Be Just as careful of the boys as
you are of the girls. 1t may be only
c.relessness which makes 1t harder to
raise baby boy than it is to raise a
baby girl.
Why Is II easier to tell your friends
all about your paby than to listen to
their reports of theirs?
