RAVACES OF THE SOUVENIR
What Was Once . Harmless Fad Has Become Almost . Univer-
 sal Mania, fs,

The vogue of the illustrated souvenir postal card has assumed the dimensions of literary peril. What was once . harmless fad confined to more or less ec- centric visitors in out off the way places has become all but a universal mania. says the New York Post. The Boston post office reports handling 25,00O of these yellow imps in single day. Tho so-called comic valentine once tainted ever, lasted but for day. while tho sou- venir postal card ceaseth not day nor night to cry for destroyer.
 From the point of view of growing popularity these postal cards but evi- dence anew the danger with which modern mechanism is continually en- composing the other handicraft arts. The printed book has driven out illus trated missal. ''The quarter sawed oak" of Kalamazoo has displaced Chippen- dale and Sheraton. And at last tho illus trated postal, with cheap ready made sentiment and chromo Autograph threatens the letter of friendship, travel and description. The residuary fleld of the epistolary art was long supposed to bs safe from the inroads of the printing press. Political intelligence such a flls Horace Walpole's six stout vol tunes of private letters has for over . century been disseminated in the news papers. Scientific news has long since found similar media of publicity. But the intimate unbosoming of friend to friend at distance has held at bayy all the devices of modern machinery until the advent of this substitute for real letter.

NEW NORTH POLE HUNTER
"Musher" Will Be There the First When Gold Stampede
 Is Started.

| There is popular belief in the e1- treme northwest that the north pole will be discovered by musher, and not by any scientific polar expedition, says the Sunset Magazine. This belief Is based on the conviction that a gold stampede will eventually be started toward north latitude 90 degrees, and that the mushers will rush in where arctic explorers have feared to tread. So completely unknown to fame ls~this newcomer in the race for the pole that to the majority of people the name sug- gests nothing but cereal breakfast food. Gilbert Parker, the novelist, who finds his most congenial theme in French Canadian life, has made his read CTS familiar with "Marche-t'-e ths cry with which drivers of dog teams urge forward their panting animals, French Canadian trappers were among the earliest white men in the far north west, and American prospectors on tho Yukon soon learned to goad their dogs on with the same cry, without, however, understanding the French, which, in their mouths, was rapidly corrupted to 'Muchon!" to this day an Alaska dog drivers equivalent for Gee up!"
 Dog drivers generally rush with ths 1 team and therefore from ''Mush on" has come the noun musher, used all over Alaska and the Yukon territory to des- ignate trailsman. The musher is gen. orally prospector, stampeder and trails man all rolled into one, and Alaska trails are such uncertain quantities that hs has frequently to make his own prece- dents over newly frozen sea and track less snow. The musher achieves most of his stampeding to new gold fields dur ing the arctic winter, for then the rigid sea becomes a highway and mighty rivers need no bridging.

SOFT-EYED MEN OF PACIFIC
Loochoo Islanders Who Possess Most Winning and Remark
 able Optics.

A woman traveller who lately visited scribes her first impressions in the
 North China Herald The first thing that struck her on landing was the fact that the coolies who tumbled lazily aboard her ship were very much addict ed to the use of hats, and very little to the use of any other clothing" She continues: T can best describe the hats by an exclamation of one of our party, What beautiful waste paper baskets they'd make!' These hats were fastened on with loops of thick, brown, hairy palm rope, through which were passed cotton strings tied under the chin. Every mans face was ornament ed with . thin, brownish black beard and mustache, and it was often hard to tell where the beard left of and the hairy rope began. Wisps of unkempt hair also struggled about the neck, giv- ing to the man the look of some savage creature Taking in these details my eyes came at last to the eyeS of these wild sayages, and To! l looked into large, soft, black eyes, so wide apart, like those of the ruminatins Animals. And in their depths lurked good -natured smile, just waiting to an swer one from me. never got used to the incongruous effect of those gentle eyes and that fierce beard on each other"

CAPTURING THE WILD DUCK
Clever Scheme of the Chinese Is Sue cessful Among the Wary
 Water Fowl.

A full-grown wild duck is one Of the most wary of all wild creatures. A wa terman may be working all day long with shovel and pickax, says the author of Bird Life and Lore" barely stones throw from a large flock of widgeon and wild ducks, and they will not notice him, for they know that he means them no harm But let a sportsman enter the meadows and hide his gun ever so care fully, and make himself ever so small. 1t is ten to one that they will rise in a cloud when he is some four gunshots away from them, and take themselves off to place of greater safety
 There is one method of taking wild ducks in considerable numbers, prac- ticed in China and in some other coun- tries, which is so amusing and so little known as to deserve notice.
 The natives take care that large number of big calabashes, or gourds, should always be left floating on the wa ter frequented by the birds, till they get to regard them as part and parcel of their resorts. The duck hunter chooses his time, and, putting one of the calabashes, with holes cut for his mouth and eyes, upon his head, he wades through the lake, taking care to keep the whole of his body well be- heath the surface. He cautiously ap- breaches the unsuspecting wild fowl, and, catching one of them by the leg, pulls him, with a sudden jerk, beneath the water, causing hardly more commo- tion of the surface than the duck itself often makes when it dives, or plashes. or plunges for it's food. He wrings its neck under the water and fastens 1t to his belt. Then he deals with another and another in the same fashion, till he makes his retreat, equally unnoticed. with whole girdleful of captured wild ducks round his waist

COLLEGE GIRL AS MOTHER
Collection of Baby Pictures Shows Conclusive Evidence of
 Fitness.

An instructor at Vassar college has an odd and interesting collection of photo graphs-the photographs of the babies of young women who are college gradu- ates. says an exchange, are strong and beautiful. They number over 300. The instructor said of them:
 q began to collect pictures of the children of female A. B.'s and A. Ms because I had heard so much talk about the higher education uniting woman for her natural sphere, and SO on.
 My collection proves that the high CT education makes mothers of an ex- cellece hitherto unknown. Highly edu- cated women don't weaken themselves with tight corsets, with overmuch dane ing and card playing, They are athletic and strong Their bodies as well as their minds are developed.
 They enter upon the duties of moth erhood with unique courage and wis dom and strength, and the result is that their babies are the biggest, strongest. baudsomest little creatures"
 She pointed toward the 300 photo graphs.
 But just look at those pictures. she cried. Just look at them

SPEAKING WITH EMPHASIS.
Calisthenics Accompany the Words of Neapolitans When Dis
 cussing Weather.

Give a Neapolitan a pair of dumb bells and ask him if he thinks it is like- ly to rain, and before his answer is finished he will have taken enough healthful exercise to last him all day" Once. says the London Clarion, trav- eler sat with friend in a cafe at Naples. Near them were two Italians engaged in conversation. The younger of the two seemed much excited
 With his hands he made reaching and clinxing motions, as if climbing. Then he seemed to be groping for cherries in the air, as he reached right and lerc above his head Next, without slacken- ing his conversation, he put the thumb and forennger of his left hand together, and holding them befors his eyes, went through the careful movements Of one threading a small needle, and all the time he talked.
 Suddenly his manner changed. Hs made overland motions, as if throwing something. Then he apparently initiated a swimmer, and immediately afterward described several circles with his lefe hand, giving the impression or rapid ly revolving wheel.
 Finally he leaned forward, and with his right hand acted the part of per- son endeavoriug to put key into key hole.
 The traveller was overcome by curios- ity. He turned to his friend, who un- derstood Italian, and asked him what the plot of the story was.
 1 "Oh. nothing" replied the other. "They're chatting about the weather"
