a Race OF Climbers.

The administrator Of the govern
ment of British New Guinea (Papua)
reports the discovery of an extraor-
binary tribe of marslland jewellers in
that island. Owing to the character
of the section Of the country in which
they live pedestrian locomotion is al
most impracticable. The land is too
swampy to be walked upon, and the
entangIed tropical underground in the
wide stretches Of shallow water rem
ders canoeing almost impossible. The
native dwellings are built in the trees
above the water level. AS the result
of these conditions the natives are
gradually losing the use of their lower
limbs. They are unable to walk on
hard ground without suffering from
bleeding feet. Their bodies have de.
yeIoped enormously in the trunk, but
the thighs, legs and feet r diminu.
tive. In figure and carriage they are
ape-like. Anthropologists are very
very much excited yer the discovery
and a scientific investigation into the
habits and physical characteristics OF
the tribe is promised by the govern
ment.

eo Aro,utated Under Hypnotism.


DR.. Frank G. Aldrich, a London ply
Stefan, gives the following remarkable
account of the amputation of a wom-
ans leg during which no ~anaesthet1c
but hypnotism was used. The patient
was a single woman, aged thirty-three
years, on whom for several reasons,
it was not considered desirable to use
anaesthetics. At 3.45 P. II. she was
put to Sleep" not being informed that
the operation was to be performed.
at 4.30 while preparations were being
made in the room for the operation,
she became rather restless, and the
doctor covered her eyes. She imme-
diately objected, saying, Don't cover
my eyes" although she was apparent
~ fast asleep. So her eyes were I'M
covered. AT $50, everything being in
readiness, I told her that the opera
ton was to commence and that she
would feel nothing. She said, All
right, hold my hands, and while she
spoke the skin missions were made.
During the course of the operation she
several times asked the nurse for, and
drank sips OF water and a little port
wine, and made general remarks" The
leg was removed at the knee, not the
least indication, even by twitch or
vince, being given of any pain during
the operation. At $50 the doctors left
her quite comfortable, and at $50 she
ate a light supper. She made a good
recovery and in a month was out Of
doors.

A CURIOUS %coURTsHIP.
How Count ToIstoy Proposed to Ne
Wife


Professor Edward A. Steiner, who
has spent last summer in Russia, con-
tributes to the Outlook this interest
ing account Of Tolstoy's curious court
ship:
For him there existed only two
classes Cf women: "The one which
was composed of all the women in
the world except Sofia, and who were
heirs to all the feminine faults, just
common human beings-and the other
class just her alone, without a fault
and high above all others" Although
no one knew that his attentions vera
centTsa Nao3 her (and the mother
thought that they were surely intend
ed for her eldest daughter), Sofia, with
that intuition which belongs to woman,
had not only OWNED his love, zrlt had
also awakened in her the same feeling.
Mrs. Baer and her daughter hleft
Yasnaya Polyana after a three days
visit, and there was something i n the
pressure of his hand when he babe
Sofia good bye which made his riding
after them in a few days and his ap-
pearance at Ivizy quite natural n
not unexpected to her. He came with
the strong desire to ask Sofia to be
his wife. and while they were alone
under a shading tree, she sitting on a
wooden bench in front CT a table, he
looking down on her chestnut-broWn
hair and into her grayish-blue eyes.
the desire ripened into determination.
She was playing with a piece Of chalk,
writing on the table. or rather just
making marks, when he said: Il have
been wishing to ask you something for
a long time" and the grayish-blue eyes,
looked into his, frightened, but friend
1y, as she said, please ask" He o
the piec of chalk out of her fingers
and wrote the first letters OF the
words of a sentence which was very
complicated and which she had to de-
cipher. "And what is this, and what
is that?" he asked of che word after
another, and with wrinkled forehead,
and blushing cheek. she answered
him. And this word?" he asked
again, and she said. st means never
but it is not So" and taking the crumb-
ling chalk from him. she wrote four
letters which did not form the words
of a complicated sentence, n he
needed no one to ask him."What is
this, or what is that" He knew what
they meant, for all she wrote was
ever" This declaration of his love
he used in a more complicated form in
his "Anna Kareinia." where Levin
thus declares himself to Kitty, his fu-
ture wife. While in the storythe mother
seemed at first opposed to the union,
in reality it was the father. DR.. Baer,
who bluntly and definitely refused to
give his consent. He wished to see
his Oldest daughter married first, and
not until Tolstoy threatened to shoot
himself if the father persisted in his
refusal did he yield.

A recent number Of the Boer news
paper, Ons Land, contains an article
describing the experiences of a Boer
who went to German Southwest At
RIGA in 1901 to settle there. The moral
condition of the country, he writes,
is serious. Most Of the Germans have
negro wives. To find a German in
the country districts, he says, with a
white wife is a rarity. At q baptism
of the child of a German father and
negro mother, which he attended at
Rehoboth, two German officers were
present with their negro wives. Com
pulsory service is equally applicable
to whites and blacks, and both serve
in the ranks together. He concludes:
"For my part, eighteen months ex
perience has brought me to the con-
clusion that it is better to be a slave
under the English government than a
free man in German Southwest AZ

.Ant-ResiatIna Trees.

Trees have no foes like the white
ant of Australia. The pests encamp
in nyriads of brown mounds around
the boles of forest monarchs, and set
down to the siege Of q tree. They
enter into possession of it, eat its
heart out, till nothing of it's sap and
wood is left save what has been turned
into a brown dust and a shetland
at the end Of their work die amid its
ruins.
Only one handsome myrtaceous
shade tree, growing On the coast Of
New South Wales, offers them q gal
liant and prolonged resistance. This
is the ~turpentine tree; some virtue
which 1t possesses render 1t distaste-
full to the white ant. Turpentine piles,
dressed only In their own natural
clothing OF bark, have been known to
preserve their s%oundness in even tere-
do-infected waters for a period ex-
tending over thirty years.

The Frenen LeoIon o. Honor,

The popular impression ia that the
Legion Of Honor is the only French
decoration, but that is not at all the
case. France possesses orders quite
es ancient as those Of most countries,
though the Oldest Of them, st. Esprit,
St. Michel. st. Louis, and St. Hubert,
dating from the fifteenth and six
teenth centuries, are no longer con-
ferred. Since. the Legion Of Honor,
which was founded in 1902 by the
first consul and modified by statute
In 1916 and 1852, there have been es-
tablished no fewer than seven decora-
tons. The legion is the only honor
than can be bestowed on foreigners
and Of two Of the five classes Of which
1t consists President Loubet left a
generous supply behind on his recent
visit to London. The silver palm OF
the academy, which M. Loubet con-
ferred on the superintendent Of the
London Home for French Goyernesses,
is, though a much-prized decoration,
not one that comes within the cate
cory Of national orders.
