Kansas thatit seems unnecessary to
write much of him. So much NAV be

man is more familiar with the re.

of Kansas, and none has done more
for its development, in all its depart

railroad building. While developing
one of the most magnificent farms in
the United States at Linnwood in
Leavenworth county, which has been
his home for more than quarter Of

They knocked at the clergyman's
door and asked for relief.
His reverence asked them, among
other things, what confession they
belonged to, and they replied as pre-
yiously agreed. Then he bade them
wait and went back into the house,
returning soon afterward with II

was roast duck and on the other a

The Tree Of Life"

The Guaraunos are to be found
all over the delta of the Orinoco.
They eat little and wear less. Many
authorities claim that they subsist
on the noriche palm tree alone.
Whether this be true or not, the
tree III question is without doubt an
Indispensable factor in the problem
of life. Not only does it furnish a
safe elevation for a home, but gives
nutritious sage, or meal, from
which bread is made, tree fifteen
years old yielding 500 pounds of
this meal. In addition. the Juice
furnishes a kind of wine, and out of
the fiber are made cord, rope, ham
mocks and a rude species of cloth.
lhls tree, owing to the many and
various purposes it serves, was call
ed by the early missionaries the

Mozart had a memory for music
and for nothing else. On attending
the papal mass at the Sistine chap
el he was greatly impressed with the
musical service and asked for copy,
but was told none could be given
him, as the music was not allowed to
go out. He went to the next service,
listened attentiycly, went away and
wrote down the whole from memory.
When "Don Giovanni" was first per-
formed there was not time to copy

The culture of all primitive peo-

means that all plains tribes, though
speaking Il score of languages, were
in life and manner broadly alike.
They were buffalo hunting Indians,
and only in rare cases did they give
any attention TO agriculture. Buff
falo meat was their food, and the
byproducts their clothing, tools and
implements.
The plains tribes in earlier times
were certainly true nomads. For IA
time, in the depths of winter, they
camped in the shelter OF some forest
along the streams. Other than that
wherever roamed herd of bUlIaIo,
there also wandered the bands OF
northern Indians. The very exist
ence of these tribes seemed bound
to that of the buffalo. From the
skins their lodges were built, while
the hair on the hides furnished the
robes for the body as well as mat
tresses and bed coverings. The
meat, prepared in many ways, with
the addition of few roots and ber-
ries, furnished their entire food

The Glass Washer.

When you dine en- famille at a
house where each glass on the table
is worth so you naturally wonder
how the servants manage to wash
and dry so costly and delicate an
article without breaking. | put the
question to a matron who is her
own housckcepcr, "Tell me how
many of your beautiful goblets,
tumblers, wineglasses, sherry glass
es, etc, are broken every week"
She replied; every glass is insured
by a company formed for the pur-
pose. This company sends to US
every day an expert glass washer,
Bohemian, and if he breaks any
thing it has to be paid for. Our
butler keeps tab on him, of course.
He breaks very few pieces, indeed.
Before he came to us we lost a great
