Another change has been made by
the land department in the manner
of making application for sale of iso-
lated or disconnected tracts hand.
Until the goth inst. parties making APP
plication to have isolated tracts ad-
vertised and sold were obliged to ap-
pear in person with two witnesses

is changed and parties may appear
before the nearest officer having a seal

which the tracts described in the APP
plications are situated.

much curiosity and laughter. Having

Poetry Defined.

George p. Morris. the author Of
'sWoodman. Spare That Tree" was a
general of the New York militia and a
favorite with all who knew. him. Mrs.
Sherwood in her "reminiscences tells
how another poet associated the gener-
al with definition of poetry.
Once FiH-G Greene Halleck. the author
of MARCO Bozzaris." called upon her in
New York in his old age. and she asked
him to define for her what was poetry
and what was prose.
He replied: When General Morris
commands his brigade and says. Sol
diers. draw your swordsp he talks
prose. When he says Soldiers, draw
your willing swordsp he talks poetry"

a PRESENT DAY UTOPIA.
Moorea island, the Happiest and Fair
est SPOT on Earth.

est Spot on Earth.
Hugo Parton, writing in the Outing
Magazine. says that the happiest and
most beautiful spot on earth today is
the island of Moorea, one of the Society
islands, in the south seas. As a con-
trast to strenuous American methods
this description sounds afluring:
whenever you are thirsty word
will send 1.-THE brown body scram,
bling up & tall palm tree trunk, and in
two minutes green cocoanut is ready
for you to quaff-the nectar of the Poly
nesian gods. 1t is worth the trip down
here to eat the native tvittals,' for you
get at every meal things you never
tasted before. and each seems better
than it's predecessor; to see your din
ner of fresh water shrimps. sharks
fins and roasted sea urchins. The ba-
nanas you eat-there are eleven varie-
ties-baked. raw. fried, dried-grow a
few rods back in the valley; ditto the
breadfruit. the pineapples and about
everything else on the board. It's nice
to have your morning coffee grown in

profusion they are used as pig food,
grated cocoanut is fed to hens, while
sensitive plant is considered excellent
fodder for cattle.
"For perfection of the human body
the Tahitian is unexcelled, If, indeed,
he is anywhere equaied. They are a
large race. both men and women being
noticeably taller and more fully de-
veloped than Anglo-Saxons. l doubt if
any Society islander ever went through
a whole day in his life without having
a wreath of flowers on his head or a
blossom behind his ear. The love of
flowers is innate with man, woman and
child. They can't pass through patch
of woods without emerging with gar
land. Every gay mood calls for flow
ers on their hats, in their hair. behind
their ears. and their life is an almost
unbroken sequence of gay moods.
Scarcely a native on the island of
Moorea can speak sentence of Eng
fish, but every one you meet greets you
with courteous smile and the vel
coming word 'Ia-ora-na' (Yorana)."
