WHAT THE SIAMESE EAT.
Putrid Fish Regarded as a Delicacy
by the Not Over-Fastidious
Natives

Siamese food principally consists Oh
dried, frequently rotted fish, and rice,
done into curries which comprise a lit
tie of about every kind of condiment.
and especially very popular sauce
called namphrik, chutney-like and
thoroughly mixed thing made of red
pepper, shrimp, garlic, onions, citron,
ginger and tamarind seeds, says Casper
Whitney, in Outing The only reason
for the fish being putrid is because the
natives like it SO, for fish are plentiful
in the rivers, and fishermen numerous.
though their ways of catching are rather
amusing and antique.
One favorite method borrowed from
the Chinese, is beating the water with
long bamboo sticks to brighten the fish
into an eight or ten-foot squarish net,
which is lowered into the river from a
framework on the bank by system CT
wheels and ropes and pulleys, and
hoisted up again when the catch is com
plete. must confess that when the fish
in the curry CHANGED to be fried instead
of decayed, found the concoction de.
cidedly toothsome. In fact, a really
good curry is in class apart, and one

Sometimes the natives eat pork. and
oftentimes chicken. but for the mos

their chief diet, supplemented by the
fruits of the country, of which there are

tempt made to reconcile it. whether
what the future has in store for it,
whether good or bad luck is to be it's
visitor, or wishing to get information
on coming attack upon their village,
always calls the rites Of Fiji into it's
service. The entire town gathers
about a large fire, and girl is selected
to act as a medium for the spirit. She
is taken to a secluded corner, and
when she whistles in several keys, the
tribespeople exclaim that Fiji has come.
Conjectures are then offered on the
meaning of the different notes, the more
reasonable ones being accepted as cor
rect, and it is decided whether the omens
are for good or bad. The girl who is
appointed in the capacity of medium is
not above deceit, as a general rule, and
often takes advantage of the rites to
gain personal ends or accomplish some
desired political move. Certain in
sects, which l have noted, are regarded
as having power to develop Fiji mani
festations. One would suppose that a
people who possessed civilization as
high, in comparison with other savages.
as the Papuans, would see the possibil-
ity of deception, but these people adj

gion that l doubt if the time is very
near when an attempt will be made to
Christianize them. A certain freely,

presager of impending disaster.
Only on one occasion did come into
contact with the real man-eating cam
nibal and that was when we were en-
camped near the middle Of the island.
One morning word was brought to us
that a near relative Of one of our hunt
ers had been eaten by a nearly tribe.
This act so aroused the native hunte.
that he demanded that the entire ex-
petition go out and eliminate the of
Tending persons. OF course this was
out Of the question, as we wished to
remain on friendly terms with the in
habitants. For two whole days a word
war ensued between the two factions
and on the third day the.offenders sent
an emissary saying that if the hunter
was satisfied, a pig would be substi-
tuted. The hunter looked at the mat
ter wisely, and concluded that the pig
uneaten was a great deal better thar

men and women alike. However, dur
ing my entire trip never observed any
of the natives in state of intoxication
The Papuans have two failings,
which, although they do no positive
harm, are of a somewhat amusing char
acter One is their love for delicacy
known as a larva, taken from a trop-
ical beetle, found, as general rule, in
decayed trunks. Whenever signs Of
the larvae are observed on the bark of
the trees the natives seize an ak, or
anything which may be handy, and
dig out the delicacy and eat it raw.
Should fire be handy, it is given a
few turns and enjoyed to the utmost
extent. l have never acquired a suf-
fcient amount of nerve to partake OF
one of these larvae, but l am told that
its taste strongly resembles that of a
lemon.
The other failing of which l have
spoken is their adherence to the pc
culiar and actually foolish religion
which is observed by the Papuans from
one end Of the island to the other. They
maintain a belief in the spirit Fiji, whc
is supposed to be- occasionally audible
but always invisible. This god, o.
whatever name may be applied to him
is considered to be the bringer of bott

THE REAL INDIAN SUMMER.
It Comes in November Not in October
as Is Quite Generally
Believed.

The true Indian summer season be-
gins early in November, says the
Springfield (Mass) Republican. 1t is
the Summer of All Saints" Novem-
Der 1, or the Summer of st. Martin"
November 5. 1t is most beautifully
described in Longfellow's "Evange-
line"
The typical Indian summer comes
when the leaves have all fallen, and a
lovely illusion possesses the earth, as
if 'twere enchanted. A delicate haze
folds the landscape; sounds of life
come from far away, muffled as If
heard in a dream, and a charm rests
on woodland and meadow and marshes,
like none other that comes to the au-
tumn October is beautiful, truly, but
it brings not the Indian summer. Too
subtle, perhaps. is the difference for
every perception to grasp it.
Some years the Indian summer lasts
but a day or few days; some years
it may stay for month, but these are
rare visitations. With its magical
charm it is blessed, whether shorter or
longer its staying, but it's not like the
October weather-that's as good as God
ever gives us-the wine of the year we
are tasting as the trees grow splendid
in color and the scents of the ferns
rise like incense. Be grateful in praise
of October and wait for the true Indian
summer.

GOOD AIR is EXPENSIVE.
The Old Notion That It Is Free VIII
Need to Undergo a
Revision.

That good air, like good water, Is
becoming an expensive commodity
seems to be apparent, judging from
the expensive ventilating appliances
that are now being installed in num-
Der of business places, public build
ings, libraries, etc., says the Water
and Gas Review The old idea about
the air being free Will soon need some
revision. The cost of ventilation in
several notable buildings in Great Bril-
tain was referred to in paper re-
Gently read before the Royal Institute
of British Architects. The Glasgow art
galleries, supplied with 9.05O,000 cubic
feet of air per hour by electric power
requiring Sc horsepower, costs for
power about S1,45O per year yer 1,000,-
600 cubic feet.
The Manchester technical school,
supplied with 10000 cubic feet per
hour, providing for three and one-half
changes hourly, and requiring 80
horsepower, is charged with $1,30S per
year per 100000 cubic feet. The Man
chester Midland hotel, ventilated at
the rate of three changes per hour,
corresponding to- supply of 5000, 900
cubic feet in that time, is charged with
40 horsepower electrical energy at an
annual cost per 100000 cubic feet of
81, 30S.
The Birmingham general hospital,
with seven changes per hour of 13, 000,-
900 cubic feet supplied per hour, re-
quires 10 horsepower electrical energy
and costs about s2S7 per annum per
100000 cubic feet.
The Royal Victoria hospital, at Bel

WOMEN IN NEW WORK
THEY ARE FINDING FARMING A
PROFITABLE OCCUPATION.
State Agricultural Schools Teaching
Girls as Well as Boys Scientific
Methods-Some Instances
of Success.

The healthfulness of outdoor work is
wooing clerks and Office men away from
indoor, sedentary occupations; also it
is attracting women, and gradually we
are changing our attitude of pity for the
women that toll in the fields to approval
of her engaging in at least the lighter
labors of agriculture.
Little by little women are entering
into the outside work of the farm, doing
ems and other barnyard fowls The
growth of state agricultural schools is
teaching the girl as we'll as the boy
something of the science of agriculture,
and the former, being encouraged to
take active interest in the new methods
taught, is helping towards reforms that
shall aid US to throw off the reputation
of being wasteful farmers.
The west, especially, has shown favor
to the adoption of women of some agri-
cultural occupation. In California
women have given practical demonstra-
ton of their fitness to be ranked as ag-
riculturists, and have been successful
in the management of vineyards, olive
orchards, and dairies, and one woman
has for years had sole control of stock

most of the Percherons used by the city

main purely for the sake of collecting
natural history facts, but while occu-
pied with these we were able to make
a number of valuable observations on
the natives, and their customs and to
get a general impression Of the coun
try itself.
The first point for which we set out
was Epa, which was reached by way Of
Bioto creek. At Epa everything was
new and interesting, and, naturally,
more time was taken up with minor
details of observation than at any other
point along our route. This village
we found to be under sort of absolute
monarchial rule The chief of the
town is known as Maivi and he is GER
tainly an autocrat among his subjects.
His word is law among the natives Of
his village, as well as among the in
habitants of the surrounding ones, and
he yields his authority by means OF
his widely advertised reputation for
sorcery In physique the man is a
giant, standing over six feet in height,
and although his strength, so far as
know, was never put to test among
his people, it is generally believed by his
subjects that he possesses greater
strength than any of his people. He is
a great sportsman, and has. acquired
sufficient wealth to be able to support
six wives, feat which is somewhat re-
markable, when it is remembered that
the richest of his subjects can afford
but two.
During our stay of nearly two years
among the Papuans l found them to be
a people of jovial nature, and very light
hearted When one gets their conf
dence, Ga matter which we speedily at

BUSINESS OF BEAUTIFIERs.
Great Demand for Devices and Which
Are Intended to Correct the De-
fects Of Mature

The world grows more and more
eager, apparently, for the production
or the preservation of beauty of form,
feature and complexion in women,
says Youths Companion. Advertising
columns glow with the rhetoric which
describes cures for every known dis
case which may attack beauty, and de-
vices for the ready manufacture Of
desirable moses, chins, foreheads and
skins"
The days of the wrinkle are num-
bered, if one may believe these per-
suasive testimonies; and the double
chin, the pug nose, the prominent ear,
the freckle and the ill-set tooth may
all become the easy conquest of der
natologist and surge ON.
There seems at first sight to be no
hahn in Gilead for the woman who is
cut off from the use of these devices,
or with whom they prove ineffective.
Must she presently find herself desert
eG by friends and ignored by foes,
simply because she has not the radi-
ant physical charms which her more
fortunate sister has purchased in the
market?
Is it not rather consolingly likely
that plainness will by and by become
so unusual as to be in itself a distinc-
ton? The age will doubtless continue
to demand such beauty as must be the
accompaniment of health. A sallow
skin, languid eye and the obesity OF
idle self-indulgence will never be in
fashion again. But among a genera
ton of semiprofessional beauties the
strong, plain face of a plain woman
may be relief, until the beauty
monger may find his occupation gone
in a general reaction against his
wares.
