Among the wild tribes to be found
IN the Philippines are the Bogobos.

and that the dislike for the practical
which Is always noticeable among
them has come down through the gen

Those that have taught among the
Bogobos say that given song OF
a poem to learn and they will study
and dream over It for hours, but give
the Bogobo a problem In arithmetic
and he Immediately becomes Ill and
wants to go home.

Mansfield's Rebuke.

A group Of theatrical men were talk
Ing In New York about the late Rich
ard Mansfield.
"Mr. Mansfield" said one, was de-
hghtful humoroist, a splendid racon-
teur in society, but at the same time
he had certain proper and becoming
sense Of his own dignity. and 1t never
paid to be unduly familiar with him.
HE was, as we all know. rather
bald. He resented, from BARRIERS, or
friends. any allusion to his badness.
''Well, one night at party, man
came up behind this great artist, stag
gered him with violent slap on the
back, and exclaimed in loud, jovial,
familiar voice:
"'Hello, Dick. How are you? Every
time ! see you, you get balder and
balder.'
Mansfield drew himself up. He
sneered at the other.
"Hello,' he said. I don't know who
you are, but every time I see you you
get ruder and ruder.'"
