The factory marks traced on the bot

culapius. The familiar crossed swords,
with the dot or circle between the ham

star took the place Of the dot in the
Marcoline period. The modern mark Is
the simple crossed swords, sometimes
accompanied by letters and numbers.

The Ugly White Man

A traveller in the interior Of Africa
thus describes the effect which his
presence had upon the natives: my
appearance on this occasion, as on
many others, excited a universal shrek
of surprise and horror. especially
among the women, who were not a lit
tie terrified at seeing such an outcast
Of nature as they consider white man
to be peeping into their huts and ask
ing for little water or milk. The
chief feeling that my appearance in
spired l could easily perceive to be
disgust. for they were firmly persuaded
that the whiteness of the skin Is the
effect of disease and a sign of weak
ness, and there Is not the least doubt
that the white man is looked upon by
them as being greatly inferior to them
selves. One day, after bargaining for
some onions with a country girl, she
told me that If / would take OF my
turban and show her my head she
would give me FIVE more onions. I in
sisted upon having eight. which she
gave me. When ] removed my turban
she started back, at the sight of my
shaver crown, and when I jocularly
asked her whether she should like to
have husband with such a head abe
expressed the greatest surprise and dis
gust and declared that she would rath-
err have the ugliest black slave for o

Bananas, Not Pajaman.

At certain dinner party a charming
young woman was seated next to an
exceedingly deaf old man. She had
done her best to interest him. but had
found it necessary to shout out each
remark unto the third and fourth mar
ration before the old man could catch
the point.
So the time dragged along till the
dinner was waning and the fruit was
passed.
The young woman determined to
make final effort at being agreeable,
SO she threw her voice into saying:
"DO you like bananas"

surprised tone.

The Kickapoo Indians have q very
peculiar marriage custom. They SIM
ply select their wives. and If the selec-
ton is mutual they reside together as
man and wife, and nothing is said.
There are no scandals among these
people. Husbands and wives are true
to each other, AMI the quiet under
standing is considered as sacred as our
marriage vows. There are few acts
that can be termed criminal among
this small band of Indians. Murder Is
seldom heard of, and death is the pen
atty for the crime. Robbery from each
other is unknown. All their posses
sions could be piled together in the
street. and no one of them would think
of taking the property. Their religion
is the same as Columbus found among
the Indians when he first landed in
America. They believe that there are
two spirits-the great, good spirit and
the bad spirit After death the wicked
are supposed to fall victims to the bad
spirit. The religious worship Is car
ried on every day. 1t consists of dances
and singing and beating of tomtoms.
They are very delicate regarding their
belief and seldom take a stranger into
their confdence.-Kansas City Journal.

The Antiquity OF the Ballet.

Strictly defined, the ballet Is properly
a theatrical exhibition of the art of
dancing i'll its highest perfection, com
plying generally 5Miththe rules of the
drama as to its composition and form
1t was in existence in Italy as far back
as "A. DISCO, the court ofsTurin in that
day making especial use of it and the
royal family and mobiles taking part in
it. The ballet was first introduced in
France in the reign of Louis Kill, and
both that monarch andS Louis XIV. oc-
'casionally took part in its dances.
In its earliest presentation the ballet
appeared dexterously in combination
with the other theatrical acts and is
aaid to have completed the chaotic
medley exhibited in these spectacles,
which were at once NEUROLOGICAL, ale
gerical, fantastic, warlike and pasto-
raj" The reader will not be slow to
observe that it's development in the
present day has not apparently lost
sight Of these conditions.
About the year. 100 women made
their first appearance in the ballet,
which up to that time had been per-
formed exclusively by men, as was the
