FataIism Among ,be Welsh

An epidemic of scarlet fever which is
raging at Goginan, near Aberystwyth,
Wales. owes much of its virulence to
the spirit of fatalism which prevails
among the Welsh.
The people believe that IL they are
fated TO catch the fever no precaution
will save them from it and that, on the
other hand, they can come in contact
with it with impunity If it is not their
fate to be infected.
This spirit Of fatalism is shown by
the Welsh custom of holding .wylno-
sau." or prayer meetings, mt the house
OF dead person.
The friends of the dead crowd into
the house and remain for an hour or
two regardless of the cause of death.
At the end of the service they march
In procession around the coffin TO take
last look
Although ministers of religion and
members Of public bodies have uttered
vehement protests. the custom of the
"wylnosau' continues TO flourish. and
In more than one instance il has been
proved TO be directly responsible for
the spread of the infection.-London
Express.

Misunderstood.

AT the inauguration of DR.. Flavel s.
Luther. the new president of Trinity
college, Il student said:
II want TO tell you about q mishap
that befell DIR. Luther one morning
last month.
He boarded one of our Hartford
street ears, rode a mile or so with his
eyes fixed on his newspaper and close
on the end of his journey looked up and
spied one of his students crumpled in a
corner.
1.-THE student was in wretched
plight. His clothing was stained, his
linen soiled. his hair unbrushed. His
face was pallid. and his eyes were
bloodshot and dull. He looked i'll; he
looked wreck, and it was easy to see
what the trouble was.
'Dr. Luther, fresh and vigorous from
his bath and his good breakfast, arose
to get off. AS he passed the unclean
student he said grimly:
Been on a drunk
"The students sleepy eyes rolled Ian
guidly toward DIR. Luther. and in dull
and listless voice the young man said:
$50 have I.'"-New York Tribune.

A NEW LONDON.

Rapidly us New York.
London is being rebuilt as rapidly as
New York. but il is so much vaster
than the American city that the process
is less conspicuous. Nothing is being

greatest is the buying out of the COM
panies that supply London with water.
Their claims amounted 10 about $780,
100000. but radical cuts were made by
the court of arbitration appointed to adj
judicate them. 1t is unlikely that the
metropolitan water board will do as
well financially as these eight compa-
MES. for the city's needs are growing
with its population. while one of the
chief sources of supply-the Thames
has been gradually dwindling for the
last twenty years, so that it will be
necessary to go far afield before long

pended on in times of drought Next
come the proposed Improvement of
the port and its control by single
body exercising the powers now divided
between the Thames conservancy and
other authorities The commerce of
London has not grown as rapidly of
late as the city itself. Lest it should
continue TO lose ground, royal COM
mission has reported, the river channel
must be widened to from 600 to 1000
feet and deepened to thirty feet ut low
water. The estimated expense of this
Improvement is $12.500.000. and new
docks are recommended at cost of
about SD. 100000.
The principal public improvements of
the last fifteen years have been due to
the county council. which superseded
the metropolitan board of works I'M
der the local government act of 1888.
One of the least conspicuous but most
costly of its single undertakings is the
Blackwell tunnel, which when opened
in 1897 had swallowed up $700O,OO0.
The next undertaking of the sort, the
tunnel from Rotherhithe to Radcliffe. is
expected TO absorb nearly as much.

The Human Nose.

From the International Quarterly.
nose which in any way suggests our
ape-like ancestors, whether snub, flattened
or abnormally small, is deemed ugly. Cen
orally speaking. the long nose belongs TO
the people of Europe, whereas the negroes
and Mongolians have short noses. With
the EsquimauX the nose is said to be IN
many cases so fiat that ruler might be
placed to rest upon both cheeks
without touching it. In many the muscles
of the nose have little fieXibility except
ABOUT the nostrils, which visibly dilate and
contract under the influence of passion.
MantegaZZa has remarked that among civ
iliZed people the nose is nearly always de-
fiected toward the right, which he attrib-
utes to the custom of wiping the nose with
the right hand. Leonardo da Vinci dis
covered that there were over ten different
varieties of nose, seen in profile, and eleven
when looked at in front. Charles Blanc
considered the nose the most characteristic
feature of the face, and recommended la
dies to regulate the style of their dress
with reference to its shape; and Lavater
went so far as to assert that beautiful
nose was worth more than a kingdom. that
it is never associated with ugly face.

He paused q moment and looked at the

Mercy's face was almost as white as the

Barnard watched her in distress.
Did you see what was in that note?'
she asked.
Yes 1 did," said Barnard. at told Hub

that If he couldn't he was to make 1t

points he had spoken to him about, and
send it by telegraph He told me to send
the message paid, too, and said he'd settle
with me after he came back. He-he want
ed it to be sent, Mercy"
AS Barnard talked to her he recalled the
conversation with Selkirk very wildly. He
recalled what he had said about making
the exposure on his own hook. he re-
membered that he had said that Cooper had
begged him not to do it. He distinctly
recolected that he had said that the affair
would create a sensation. 1t was plain as
day to him that for some reason which ne
could not understand, Selkirk had turned
traitor,
Jack Selkirk isn't cur!' said Mercy,
Indignantly.

with labor questions and laboring men.
During his railroad career he has had his
troubles with the unions, and has usually
settled them without strikes. At such times
he met with the men themselves, showed
that he was willing to give well as take
and, when he could go no farther In his
concessions, he brought his employees to
time. by speaking something like this:
We'll, gentlemen, l have gone as far as /
can, and now | want you to put yourselves
In my place. / have more at stake In this
matter than you. You can strike, but you all
know that you can get back again. But
as for me, if | give you what you ask,
L shall lose my job. | am put here by the
stockholders to make this road pay and
they won't keep me if it don't pay. L
can't do that if | give you what you ask,
for the road can't stand it. Now l leave
the matter with you
AS a result the men would go off and
confer and soon return abandoning their
demand or making some small compromise
by which they could go back 10 work.

Indeed. ii is the absolute honesty which
shines out of everything connected with
Mr.. Wallace that makes him a success
full handler of men. l have heard a good
deal about graft at Panama. So far 1

There are contractors at Panama, but only
few contracts have been let and every
one is treated impartially. Ordinary con-
tracts are placed by the various depart
ments, and only the biggest things como
before the chief engineer. To show how he
deals with such men. the other day con-
tractor slipped past the doorkeeper and en-
tering his private office, said: Mr.. Wallace.
my name is Smith. l am friend of your
friend Blank of Chicago and | called to
see if we could not sell you certain build
ing supplies
AIR replied the chief engineer. II am
indeed glad to friend of Mr.. Blank
but l have nothing to do with such pur-
chases / do not bother with details. The
person you want to see is Mr. Johnson, the
supervising architect and whatever he says,
goes. / am glad to see you, however, and
hope you will remember me kindly to Mr.
Blank My messenger will show you where
to find Mr.. Johnson
The man left, and strange to say, not dis
