THE HEATHEN ESKIMO.
He Is Good Humored with HIS Queer
Customs and Beliefs.

He II Good Humored With His Queer
Customs and Beliefs.
Professor Myllus ErIksen. writing of
the heather Eskimo In northern Green
land, says: "He lacks Imagination, but
his powers Of observation are very
acute. In spite Of the fact that bis life
is an uninterrupted struggle for exist
ence the Greenlander Is always In q
good humor, and his boisterous laugh
can be heard sounding far over Ice and
snow fields. His way of telling stories
is short and abrupt, but comical fea-
lures are strongly emphasized. His sto-
ries consist generally of his own ad-
ventures, old legends about fights with
neighbors and wild animals, about Sc
we're winters and great famines, about
the creation of the world and about
supernatural beings. 1t is considered
highly credltable to be able to tell sto-
ries so long that the audience is lulled
to sleep An orator who achieves this
feat is solemnly welcomed on the next
morning, and every one thanks him
profusely for the pleasure which he &C.
corded the night before.
Ideas OF beauty are peculiarly devel-
oped In the heather Eskimo. He re-
CARDS beauty solely from the stand
point Of utility. For instance, a rock
projecting out Of water only appears
beautiful to him when 1t Is visited In
summer by water birds which breed
there. A foaming torrent Is only beau
tiful IL 1t contains many salmon.
Clothes are not put together with any
idea of regularity of color, only their
practical utility being considered. Huts
are made Of snow and stones, with
domed tops, but without any architec-
tural design.
"Only the spirit conjurers (angakoks)
occupy an exalted position, being re-
garded as priests and doctors. Their
task Is to establish q connection be-
tween the visible world and the hidden
spirits, and in this way they obtain a
certain influence over their neighbors.
The angakok asks his spirit for ad-
vice and then informs the invalid that
his illness has been sent by the spirits
as punishment for certain deeds"

ROME VERSUS PARIS.
when the Eternal city Was the Art
Center of the World

tehiSr OF the W Ortd.
There was time when Rome was
the worlds art center. No artists edu-
cation was considered complete unless
he spent some time in that city. There
was always to be found there a coterle
OF strong men, many of them famous,
in whose society the tyro might min
gle and gain much by the companion-
ship That day has gone by, however,
and change has taken place. Paris
has usurped the prerogative of the old
city, and it is to her that the world now
turns for new ideas of art The Ital-
IAN galleries remain, the masterpieces
hang in their accustomed places, the
sky Is as blue, the air as soft and the
outlook as lovely, but the glory of Ro-
man art life has departed. The hui
manity that gave the art impetus, the
interest to the student, has betaken It.
self from the Seven Hills to the peace
ful Seine where it fiourishes In the
wilder, more luXuriant growth, nurtur-
ed by the hothouse forcing of fin de
steele ideas, untrammeled by conven-
ton or tradition. For good or bad
and the judgment must be left to the
reader-the fact remains that today
Paris is the hub about which the wheel
of art revolves.
Yet from Paris there go annually to
the Italian capital a number of young
men, winners of the annual competi-
tions for the prize of Rome, to spend
four years in the most idyllic manner
as guests of the French republic at the
villa Medlci, beautiful palace own
ed by the government and specially ar
ranged for their reception. These men
have not won their spurs without hard
work. without great preliminary train

THE BUDDHIST HADES.
Eight Easy Stages" OF the Most Aw-
full Kinds of Torture.

Iul Minus OF IOrture.
The place of torment to which all
wicked Buddhists are to be assigned
on the day of final reckoning is ter
rible place of punishment This
Buddhistic hell is divided into eight
"easy stages" In the first the poor
victim is compelled to walk for un-
told ages in his bare feet over hills
thickly set with redhot needles, points
upward. In the second stage the skin
is all carefully filed or rasped from
the body and irritating mixtures ap-
piled. In the third stage the nails,
hair and eyes are plucked out and the
denuded body sawed and planed into
all sorts of fantastic shapes. The
fourth stage is that Of "sorrowful lam
entations." In the fifth the left side
of the body and the denuded head are
carefully roasted, Yema, the Buddhis-
tic Satan, superintending the work. In
the sixth stage the arms are torn from
the body and thrown into an immense
vat among the eyes, nails and hair pre-
viously removed, Then in plain hear
ing of the sore footed, blind, manned,
roasted and bleeding victim the whole
horrid mass is pounded into a Jelly.
In the seventh stage the other side Of
the victim and his feet are roasted
brown, and then comes the eighth and
last stage, in which the candidate is
thrown into the bottomless pit Of per-

CHOICE MISCELLANY


One of the most remarkable discov-
lake of liquid soda in the inaccessible
desert between Crestone, Colo, and
Hooper, in the San Luis valley. The
lake is an acre and quarter in eX
tent and lies at the bottom of a little
basin valley in the desert. On its sur
face soda crystals have collected to
depth of eighteen inches, the whole lake
having the appearance of a body of ice
with a hard snow covering.
A recent examination by the State
School of Mines shows that these crys-
tails are 81 per cent pure soda, purer
than most of the commercial soda Of
fered ON the market A Denver man,
e. NJ. Fake, has secured lease of the
land containing the lake and Is now
installing machinery which will con
vert the native crystals into marketa-
BILE form. There are 1000 tons in
sight.
The School of Mines experts say that
the soda is a creation OF feldspar The
granite masses of the Sangre de Cristo
range stand sentinel on two sides of
the little valley The feldspar in the
granite, undergoing decomposition, col
lects in the lake basin, where it is held
in check by an impervious clay, and
proper conditions are furnished for
concentration and aporation.-Chica-

YOUR BLOOD VESSELS.

Keep Them Sound, and You Have the
Elixir of Life.
Every age sees its earnest scientists
still seeking how they may discover the
elixir or the force which shall give us
the energy, the vitality and the appear

been struggling with the subject is con.
WINGED tlat the secret lies In keeping
sound blood vessels. We are Just
as old a. our hearts, he declares, and
this Is no pretty poetical sentiment, but
a cold, scientific fact. As years creep
on our arteries and the heart lose vigor,
and we then begin to age" Now, we
can train this organ, 1t appears, to
work better than 1t does. Like an old
clock, If treated judiciously it will go
on as well as new one, but 1t does
not do to give 1t any of the liberties of
the latter. We must carefully regulate
the exercise we take, the food we eat,
the mental efforts we make, the mus
cular work we do. We should neither
walk too much nor too little. We
should get as much air as possible and
never oversleep. We should never cod
die, still less should we be rash about
colds, fatigue, and so on. - London

THE DIFFICULT TASK.
Combing the Particular Mans Hair
Bothers the Barber.

bOthers the barber.
"Do you know, one of the most diff
cult things In this business" said the
barber as he ran the comb through the
hairbrush, us in the matter OF comblng
n customers hair? 1t Is rather singu-
lar fact that you will find few BARRIERS
who have succeeded In solving the
problem of combing a customers hair
just as he wants 1t, no matter how
long the man may have been a patron
of his chair. or course there are few
exceptions to this rule There are
few N in the world who do not care
Nnethe their hair Is combed at all.
With this class Of men fof course
it doesn't make much difference how
the barber combs the hair. But at least
ninety out of every hundred men who
patronize barber shops are very partic-
ular about the way you comb their
hair unless you have inspired them
with an extraordinary confidence. Un-
less, in fact. they have better opin-
ion of the barber's Judgment than they
have of their own the barber will miss
the mark when he comes to put the
finishing touches on the hair. The rea
son for this is not altogether matter
Of vanity. There are great many
men whose looks are completely
altered by change In the way the
hair is combed Take the man, for In
stance, who Is In the habit Of parting
his hair on the side, and part It in the
middle, or the man who Is In the habit
of combing his hair down and parting
1t on one side-suppose you roach or
pompadour the halr-cah you not see
what changes would follow In the gen.
eral appearance OF the man? This fact
has much. to do with making the comb
Ing of mans hair matter Of much
difficulty, and do not exaggerate when
