1t is a common superstition thai
truth telling is frequently painful
but in most instances it clears the at

cheerful feelings. Here is an nuisance
This summer, at one of the most popu
lar resorts down at the eastern end o.
Long Island, there was rumpus late
one night. 1t was an innocent kline
of affair. Alarge party in the hos
telry took occasion to celebrate q
wedding in some place outside of the
hotel, and, on returning, continued
the revelry in the halls by rolling Gro
quet balls down the Stairways. Al
the house was large, this kind of mer-
riment did not disturb many of the
guests, and they slept through the
racket peacefully. One woman, how.
ever, did not accept the noise in a
spirit of charity; she robed herself and
went into the hall and complained
oud and long, IN language not distin.
guished for elegance of dlction, for
about an hour, of the conduct of the
jewellers. The result was that she
awoke everybody within the sound of
her voice, and there was general un-
happiness. Next morning the hus-
band of the woman was at the break
fast table, No one at the table knew
that 1t was his wife who was the
nightingale Of a few hours before, and
1t happened that we'll known Brook
Ignite, a physician, sat opposite to
him. The talk ran on the occurrences
of the night, and the unknown huS-
band proclaimed in no uncertain tones
that the disturbance had been an ~
warranted outrage on the other guests.
Eyes" SAID the physician, II quite
agree with you. The only thing that
] heard was talking woman Gre. t
9rlef didn't you hear her Why she
would talk the leg off from an iron
kettle l just wish that l had been
her husband for about three minutes.
What she needed was a good thump-
ing |"
There was silence for a minute, and
then every one broke out laughing.
The husband blushed and stammered
and kept his peace, for he was nice
man. There was no reason for apol-
ogieS, nor regrets, nor words-it had
all been said; and everybody felt bet
ter-becauSe the woman was not
there. If she had been, then it is
likely that this story would not have

The buffaloes of the west have been
treated, almost as wantonly as the for
ests of the east. OF course, 1t was nec-
essary that both should be thinned out
considerably to make room for an adj
vancing civilization, but it was not nee
essary nor was It wise that either
should be brought so near the point Of
humiliation, says the Boston Tran
script. The contempt for and hostil-
ity to the sublime primitiyeness of
this country that have marked an adj
vance more resistless than any Of the
old buffalo migrations have been pain
full and unpraiseworthy features Of our
last century development.

Cliff of Natural Glass

A cliff of natural glass can be
seen in Yellowstone Park, Wyom-
ing. 1t is half a mile long and
from $50 feet to 300 feet high, the
material of which it consists being
as good glass as that artifcially
manufactured. The dense glass
which forms the base is from 70
feet to 100 feet thick, while the
upperportion, having suffered and
survived many ages of wind and
rain, has naturally worn much
thinner. OF course, the color of
the cliff is not that of natural
glass-transparent and white
but it is mostly black, and some
places notified and streaked with
brownish red and shades of olive
green and brown.

MAKES A LIBERAL OFFER.
Frenchman Will Give His Ears, Nose
or Skin to Doctors for Graft
ing Purposes.


Though the recent story about
grating one mans ear upon an
other mans head, to make good a
loss by the latter, proved to be
without foundation, there can be
no doubt about the possibility of
transferring portions of skin
from one human body to another.
That operation has been per-
formed with success too many
times to be regarded with skepti-
cism. On a more limited scale
and with less satisfactory results
surgeons have spliced pieces of
bone taken from an animal upon
that of a human leg or arm.
The ear-grafting yarn, having
been widely circulated in Europe,
has led to a remarkable offer A
Frenchman has written to a sur
geon named Gillaume Livet, to
say that he will sell ears, nose or
skin for this purpose.
In case DR.. Liyet does not need
them in his own practice, the cor
respondent would esteem it a fa-
vor if he would bear him in mind
in the event of colleague requir
ing them. He also suggests thar
the Academy of Science and the
Faculty of Medicine might find
use for parts Of a living body. "It
so please let me know, and / will
be most grateful"
He adds Il postscript to the eff
feet that the charges for parts OF
his anatomy will be moderate al
first" Indeed, it is only natura
to suppose that the prices will ad
vance prOpOrtionately to the re
duction of his person. He alsC
says that special arrangements
may be made for the poor whC
need pieces of him.

THE NEW ENGLAND STATES
Boston Publication Finds Evidence of
Decadence-Can't Keep UP with
March of Progress.

New England is stale, declares
the Buffalo Times. Too far gone
to keep up with the rapid march
of progress. it has dropped out of
the procession. The Boston Her
aid finds evidence in recent sta
tistics of the decadence of the
group of states not only in pOlit-
zeal influence and literary emf
hence, but also in manufacturing
and commerce. During the past
year national banks increased in
number, capital, deposits and ag-
gregate resources in other parts
of the union, but in New England
there was a smaller number of
banks, less deposits and less ag-
gregate resources than at the be
ginning of 1903. In manufactur-
ing New England has not kept
abreast with other sections of the
country. The textile industry is
in part absorbed by the south and
other lines of productive industry
are appropriated by the middle
and western states.
The Herald believes that special
legislation would restore to New
England its Old-time prosperity,
but there is grave doubt as to the
advisability of providing it. The
Baltimore Sun. discussing this
proposition, ably says that New
England is corner of the country,
and a national policy that suits
the rest of the union does not nee.
essarily favor remote corner.

One Woman Wanted to Know If the
Grand Canyon Was Open Sun
davs-"Fried cupids."


Burton Holmes has been travel.
ing in the summers and telling Of
his travels during the winters for
dozen years. During that time
he has visited almost every coun.
try on the globe, and now that he
is in New York, he is continually
meeting friends whom he first met
in Japan, Alaska, Hawaii, India.
Algeria or some other foreign
country.
"The criticism is sometimes
made of the Japanese that they
have no religion said Mr..
Holmes, at The Lambs the other
day, but the criticism is not well
founded. They have religion.
which, while simple, is sufficient
for their needs, and il has many
beautiful features. The religion
is known as 'Shinto,' or Way of
the Gods It'll sort of sun wor-
ship, and in the temples rising
sun is always prominent part of
the decorations. In fact, it is
about all there is in the temples.
Some one once said that there is
nothing to see in a Shinto temple,
and they won't let you see it,
Mr.. Holmes says that the most
interesting feature of his travels
has been the other travellers whom
he has met. The comments that
some of them make when gazing
for the first time on wonder of
nature are excruciatingly funny.
Thus woman who gazed into the
awe-inspiring Grand Canyon of
the Colorado for the first time
said; Just as Iexpected; | knew
[ would be disappointed. 1t is not
a bit like Colorado Springs" An
other woman, when buying in San
Francis& round trip ticket to
the Grand Canyon, cautiously
asked the railroad agent: "Is the
canyon open on Sundays?" A
third woman gazed curiously at IA
group Of naked MOki Indian chill !
dren, who scampered away at the
approach of strangers and ran up
ladders with the agility of mon
keys, their bronze skins glistening
IN the sun. Then she said: "They
oOk like fried cupids."

NURSERY GARDEN IN JAPAN.
Curious Revelation Of What eau Be
Done in the Way Of Training
Dwarf Trees

A japanese nursery garden is u
revelation, says MacmillaR's
There, on benches, in rows, sit tor
tured trees in their bowls or pans
of faience. Their perfection is a
marvel Of patience, requiring
years for its accomplishment;
sometimes one man will give as
much as 30 years attention to a
single little cherry tree. Each
curve, each leaf, each twig has its
direction and proportion regulat-
ed by the most rigid and immem-
orial principles; and to have any
value in japanese eyes a dwarf
must conform absolutely to the
iron rules laid down by the canons
of taste in the days when Iyeyasu
Tokugawa paralyzed into an ada
mantine immobility the whole ar
tistic and intellectual life of the
country The effect is, Of course,
exquisite in its elaborate and rath-
er morbid beauty. But it must be
said that there are many dwarfs.
very many, which go for low
prices, owing TO the imperfectiOns
of their development; they have a
bOugh, or a bend, that is not pre-
scribed. Consequently the Japan
csc buy them-indeed, with pleas
ure-but will not admit their
claims to be works of art. Natur-
ally he will buy them, as even so
they are beautiful, and their price
brings them within the range of
everyOne's ambition. SO, at home,
one might buy a Severn instead of
a Turner, recognizing the differ
ences clearly, but yaluing the
cheaper picture as highly as it de-
serves, and buying it the more
readily for its cheapness. How
ever, these japanese trees that fill
the gardens are wonderful, with
all their imperfectiOns, and the
untutOred savage eye of the west |
fails to see any difference |
between a perfect specimen ten
inches high, three centuries in |
age, and ESQ in price, and its neigh
Dor of equal height, of five years
growth and five shiIIings value.
They are all dainty, and of every
kind.

Painless Dentistry.

When a Chinaman wants to
have a tooth drawn he feels no
nervous apprehension of pain, for
the excellent reason that he
knows his dentist will not infict
any. The latter simply rubs a Sc

After about five minutes the pa
tient sneezes and the tooth falls
out. Many attempts have been
made by Europeans to get some
of this mysterious powder, but no
one has yet succeeded.
