New Guinea swamp jewellers.

Recently the British government pub
lished an interesting report on the ape
like swamp jewellers of New Guinea.
This strange race of human beings has
dwelt in the swamps from times which
antedate the oldest native traditions.
and it is evidently on the highroad to
becoming a distinct variety of animal.
The swamp jewellers have lost three
inches in stature and, while retaining
muscular arms and robust trunk.
have short and slender legs. Walking
always in water or on moist ground,
they have feet with long, fragile look
ing toes, which they place on the
ground s'like wooden feet" Walking on
hard ground makes their feet bleed,
and, unlike the ordinary natives.
whose skin is everywhere tight and
smooth, the outline of their loins is OBJ
scured by folds of skin. more apelike
than any human being that 1 have
SEEM" is the concluding criticism of the
British administrator. 1t is probable of
course that this effort of nature to Gre
ate q new species of amphibious hui
man being with fiat swimming and
wading feet and degenerate physique
will be defeated by civilizing agen-
cies. Fifty years hence the last recog-
nizable specimens of this queer race
will perhaps have incased their paddle
feet in boots. Perhaps their women
will be wearing high heeled shoes. But
the record Of their existence is inter-
esting.

The Time For Recreation.

In this insistent age, when life every
where is at high pressure, there is
great need Of emphasizing the impor-
tance-yes, the absolute necessity OF
recreation.
What is work worth, especially brain
work. when it is performed with faded
faculties, the energy of the brain cells
being exhausted?
One ambitious of becoming q writer,
for example, thinks he is saving time
by forcing his brain beyond natural
limits. He believes that what he does
over hours Is clear gain and that writ
Ing q chapter or an article after his
days work in an Office, a factory or
store is to his advantage. But sooner
or later he will realize his mistake. Ma
ture will not be cheated.
A man may profitably occupy his
evenings in study or in some other oc-
cupatiOn than that by which he earns
his daily bread, but he cannot do a full
days work of any kind and then wise
~ attempt to do creative work in the
evening. A fresh brain Is absolutely
essential to the production of original
thought. Even recognized author
who forces too much work upon his
brain will soon see that his writings
are not as much in demand as they
have been and that his reputation Ia

Dolly MadisOn.

There are many stories told Of the
tact and kindness of Mistress Dolly
Madison when she was the first lady Of
the land. Her ready wit saved from
confusion many visitor to the White
House who was not accustomed to the
ways of polite society.
One of the most amusing of the sto-
ries Is the tale of country lad at q
White House reception who was sur
prised In the midst of his enjoyment
OF cup Of coffee by the approach of
his hostess. In his confusion the poor
boy dropped his saucer and thrust the
cup into his pocket.
Mistress Dolly, who, although her eyes
were keen and searching, never saw
anything that it was not intended she
should see, chatted away with her
guest SO pleasantly of the weather, the
crowd, and, finally, of the young mans
mother, whom she had known or heard
Of, that he recovered from his embar-
rassment and was soon at ease and
ready to accept the fresh cup of coffee
which his hostess ordered. despite a

The Ram Feast.

In Morocco the strange season of the
Mohammedan new year, beginning
March o, is generally called "Ait-el-
Hanwela," the ram feast. The people
of Morocco pay more elaborate atten-
ton to the item of sacrifice than any
other Moslems. In every town a SUI
preme offering of ram or he goat
takes place at the door of the principal
mosque. Immediately after it is struck
by the official imam in presence of the
multitude it is flung on the shoulders
of stalwart Moor, who, exerting his
utmost strength, runs like a deer
through the narrow streets, pursued
by rabble. The poor animal is pelted
with stones by boys and is jeered at
with execrations from every house, as
it is reputed to be carrying the sins of
the people. The man rushes along with
his burden till he reaches the door of
the cadis palace. If the animal is still
breathing, the augury is excellent, for
good luck is to be expected all through
the year. But if the ram is dead all
sorts of evil representations are NUT

Antiouitv Of Nickncmea,

The origin of the word as well as the
exact date of appearance of the custom
of "nicknaming'' Is unknown. Such
names are as old at least as the most
venerable chronicles, for upon diving
into ancient history we have no trouble
at all in proving that Plato was called
the attic Bee" and Socrates "Old Flat
Nose" There isn't the least doubt but
that many Of our surnames come from
nicknames applied to our ancestors,
such for instance, as "Dollarhide,"
"Oxenrider," Bright" "Lightfoot,"
"Walkingshaw," "Redhead," Long
man." "Longfellow," etc.
Julius Cesar was popularity styled
"Baldhead," and even the third Ram
eses is said to have been known by
an Egyptian word which signifies
"limpy." No one has been able to es1
cape the blighting or benign influence
of the nickname. Kings. queens, phil
losophers. divines, statesmen, as we'll
as many other eminent persons. have
been made to prosper or suffer by .hav
ing some appropriate or ridiculous So
briquet added after the lawful bestow-
al of the christian" name.

Vincent Joachim Raphael Louis Pecei,

An Awful Experience.

A native diver descended into the

While he was engaged in this work q
great iron cylinder subsidized little,
crushing his hand between it and the
masonry. When, on signal being Civ
en-, another diver came down, he found
his unfortunate comrade imprisoned
under water without hope Of escape.
After a few moments of mute despair
and narrowing uncertainty speech
less decision was arrived at, and the
newcomer proceeded with chisel and
hammer to hack off his unhappy COM
panion's hand at the wrist. The pris-
oner was thus liberated, but died soon
after reaching the surface from the
shock. Never, think, has an opium

The horses of the New York fire de-

In nearly every engine house each Of
the stalls bears the name of the horse
occupying it, large black letters on

Tom, Harry, Dick or Major, as the case
may be. The firemen are proud of
their dumb friends and not only do
everything possible to make them COM
Portable when they are off duty, but
take pleasure in providing them with
little luxuries and tidbits. Loaf sugar,

horses eating the sweets from the

POULTRY POINTERS.

A healthy fowl will drink fifteen or
twenty times day.
Sharp gravel should always be sup
piled to fowls that are fattened in close
confinement.
Box nests are all right If made large
enough, the size depending upon the
breed Of fowls.
Linseed meal is excellent as an egg
producing meal, but it should be fed in
connection with coarse or bulky foods.
Soft eggs laid before the shell has
formed are caused by overlooking. Give
less food, and more pounded shells or
limewater.
A varied diet for poultry Is a neces-
sary help to their general health and
has much to do with their value as
breeders.
If disease appears and resists RENE
dies, 1t is better to begin with new
stock than to breed from those that
have been sick long time.
A light, sandy soil is always best for
a poultry yard. A heavy clay soil is al
ways damp and, unless care is taken.
will cause roup, while a sandy soil, be-
ing dry, will promote warmth.
