South Sea Islanders Are Ex pert In Ma

In the Marshall group OF Islands In
the south seas is little atoll Of cora
known as Likieb atoll. II Is hundreds
OF miles away from any other island,
and the natives 90 half naked like the
other dwellers OF the south seas. But
they have learned one great civilized
art. just the same, and that Is the art
OF building ships.
About forty years ago a Portuguese
sailor was landed there from a whaI-
ing ship. When his vessel sailed away
he remained behind, for the lazy
charm OF the Pacific island life had
tempted him and he had decided to
leave the restless Sea and live the rest
Of his days on the warm. sleepy
beaches. where no one worked.
Soon he married the daughter OF a
chief and became a trader. After
many years an American captain VS.
tied the islands during a trading voy-
age in the south seas and when his
vessel shortly afterward became I'M
seaworthy he set to work on the beach
to build a new one.
The Portuguese whaler's two sons
helped him and learned a great deal
about the operation. The island had
fine. hard wood on H. just the kind OF
timber that shipbuilders value because
it will not rot or waterlog readily. The ,
captain at last succeeded In finishing a i

In her
Before long the two boys had begun
to teach the natives something Of what
they had picked up and soon. instead
of the primitive canoes and dugouts
that the Marshall islanders have been
using for centuries. the folk Of the
Likieb atoll began TO build canoes
made OF carefully fashioned lumber
and pinned together with riyets.
Now there is a real shipyard on this
little speck lost in the wide Pacific.
A high roof under the palms on the
beach greets the mariner and when he
ands he sees vessels, modern tools
ying around and everything looking
ust as it does in a shipyard anywhere
IN the American coast. only instead Of
yorkmen In overalls be sees dark ma
ives with hardly any clothing.

Why tho Bears Fought.

G. NJ. Russell, the Western painter,
tells an amusi'-N story of a bear fight
which he KS is funnier than any
hume sketch he has even seen
portrayed on a vaudeville stage. He
had been out with a guide all day, and
toward evening they saw, far down
the road, two bears sauntering along,
quite obvious OF the presence of hui
man beings, us the wind was In the
wrong direction. Russell and his
guide quickly jumped behind a small
thicket, and when the bears were
within shooting distance the painter
let fly and struck one Of them fair In
the side. The shot stunned the animal
for a moment, and he was under the
impression that his mate had struck
him a terrific blow when he was not
looking. AS there appeared to be no
reason for this chastisement, he pro-
ceeded to retaliate by attacking the
other bear. About this time the guide
took a shot at the assaulted animal,
with the result that the brute was in-
furiated and imagined he had been
struck with undue force by his CON-
rade. Upon this the two bears set to
and had a terrific fght.-Success Mag

Heavy Rains in Kansas.

Kansas City.-Soaking rains have
fallen in western Missouri and Kan
sas. The flood coming on top of al
most continuous heavy rains during
the past ten days, all streams are up
and more or less damage has been
done. Low lying portions of Argen-
tine and Armourdale districts of Kan
sal City, Kan, occupied principally by
packing houses and railway employees,
have been flooded. This has been caus-
ed principally by backwater from de-
fective sewers, and no serious dam
age is likely to follow. Although the
Kaw river at this point has risen rap
idly and continues to come up, it must
rise 10 feet yet before it becomes
really threatening. The Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific pile bridge across
the Kaw river neal Kansas avenue, in
-Armourdale, was carried out and the
Kansas City Southern pile bridge was
threatened.

Small warts on children's hands
when they appear in numbers can be
got rid Of certainly and painlessly by
keeping them constantly moist with
a lotion made by adding two drains Of
dilute nitric acid to one pint Of water.
One of the latest ideas is that celery
Is a cure for rheumatism. 1t Is as
serted that the disease is impossible
If the vegetable be cooked and freely
eaten. The celery should be cut into
pieces and boiled in water until soft,
and the water drunk by the patient.
Put new milk, with a little -four and
nusmeg, into a saucepan with the
boiled celery, serve it warm with
pieces of toast, eat it with potatoes,
and the painful ailment will soon yield.
Such is the declaration Of a physician

A Bad Bargain.

W. W. Jacobs, the English humorist,
the following story: II was
at a butcher shops display
when the butcher came out and said
to an old man, Henry, I want you
What do you want?' the old man
asked. Why said the butcher, I'll
give you a shilling and a joint Of meat
If you'll kill all the flies in my shop.
All right said the old man. Give
me the shilling first and the meat af-
terward.' The butcher handed out the
shilling. Then the old man asked for
a stick about a yard long. This was
brought him. He grasped it firmly,
went to the doorway and said: Now,
turn 'em out, one at a time"
