tales and pictures of what painter iouhu
in thcsc mid-Pacifc islands.
Mr. Wore, had to leave Hawaii for Samoa
10 find some unspoiled natives. some natural
men and women remaining almost wholly
unaffected by white mems influence. The
Hawaiians, who used TO love to adorn those
generous portions of their figures not
screened by the lavalava with myriad
flowers, their bronze skins cleaning here
and there among the petals. now insist upon
clothing themselves like tho white folk.
and thereby make themselves useless to
the painter.
The garlandcd head and bust Of
Hawaiian girl appears in an illustration
here. Mr.. Worcs has pictures of others
with flowers streaming from shoulders and
arms and falling like the ribbons OF an
unwound Maypolc all about them. But 1t
was difficult to. find the natives who en-
joyed clrging to their national costume.
The artist asked girl to sit for portrait
and she wanted to pose in shirt waist

he, with the truth for which painters have

asked the captain several times and was
astounded TO hear him answer that he didn I
drink. l wondered II he could have re-
formed
AS we approached small harbor for
which we were bound the water began
TO shoal and every here and there coral
rocks would be seen rising to within two
or three feet of the surface of the sea. The
captain now and then would ring u slow
down. and walk to the end OF the bridge
and look into the water, as II seeking some
familiar rock there.
sOnce he rang for steam to be shut Of
took a look. rang for half speed, shut on
steam again. and then suddenly yelled
we heard and felt the ship crate along
a coral bottom. Suddenly she shot over
the reef into the smooth water Of small
but good harbor The captain came down
from the bridge and inquired:
did anybody say anything about
drink
J Mr.. Wores didn't think the artistc effect
quite explained the odd but familiar sight
in Samoa of pig following girl around
like a pet dog, The girls take the pigs
when they are very small and tie string
to them and 80 lead them wherever they
20 and make pets OF them. feeding them
whenever they eat When the pigs grow
up they follow the girls then without the
Leading string.
The painter found thaf there was very
material reason for making these peculiar
pets The natives told him that there was
little for pigs to live on IL they were left to
root for themselves and so when the sows
went into the country to litter most al the
young pigs died.
To prevent this race extinction the girls
made pets Of little pigs that they could
catch, and these were about the only ones
that lived to grow ,ip The Samoans had
no scr,iples in killing these pigs when they
got good and fat, however much they had
been petted.
Pigs are eaten. however, chiefly at feasts
At one Of these in Apia Mr.. Woree learned
that the Samoans take their policemen as
even more Of Joke than the gamblers here

THE Samoans are not savaecs. They

come back laden with all the food they can

nothing on Sunday but cat and go to
church. They go to church three and four
times and APPEAR TO like Il.
They reserve hats for church wear.
They go along to church swinging the hats,
which they do not use at other times, and
on reaching the church they carefully put
them on, wearing otherwise their native
they take the hats of again and do not use
them again till the next Sunday.
. Il was told Of a battle between tho Sa-
moans and European TROOPS, In which the
natives cut on the heads OF the soldiers
they captured. The European commander
told him that that sort of thing ought to
stop. The chief inst ructcd his warriors
that while they must do all in their power
10 win the fig hts, they must not cut on
way Christians did. The reply he got was

Residents of Honolulu. like other

worth of their money. They want to
know all the why's and wherefores- and
in a direct ratio to the value of the in
vestment they burrow and ferret until

instance in the realm of proprietary
articles. If We know or a friend who

the preparation; if we know of two or
three our faith increases. IL the cures

the said preparation. can safely be left
to the care of his fellow taxpayers. If
he wishes to pick a quarrel with them
on the question of their judgment and
veracity, he has ample opportunity in
Honolulu to do so. Begin with this
case.

Royalties VINO Didn't Look Royal.

According to Hrolf Wisely, in the
Independent. an incident which King
Christian of Denmark never tires OF
telling as a good joke on royalty oc-
CURED when he and his oldest son,
the Crown Prince Frederick. accom-
panied the late Car Alexander the
Third of Russia on a pedestrian tour
in Denmark. Weary of walking, they
asked a peasant to give them ride
home, to which he assented. It was
he had no knowledge who were his
august passengers. The king made
up his mind to play practical joke
upon the man, but as it happened the
man turned the joke on the king.
Nudging the Car with his elbow, the
king said to the peasant: Good man,
tell me have you ever seen the Crown
Prince of Denmark"
Grown Pete?-No." responded the
man. his answer being a vernacular
pun on the Crown Princes title: but
1 know he lives up there in the castle. -
We'll, 1 am the Crown Prince or
Denmark" announced the holder of
that title, restraining himself from
laughter with great difficulty.
And 1 am the King of Denmark
supplemented King Christian impress
sively.
And I am the Car of Russia broke
ir the late Car with his barbarous
pronunciation of Danish. which on the
tongue of the present Gar, Nicholas,
sounds like that of a native.
The peasant looked them over slowly,
one by one, with a mischievous eye,
and barely removing the pipe stem,
he said in a low, grooming voice:
"Weel-a-weel, If you're the Crown
Pete, and you're the King Bee. and
that is the Czarri O Russialand, then
am the Emperor O. Chinah!'
