z A FataIist, but Cautious.

1 A story is related Of a minister of the
REORGANIZATION school Of belief on a
Mississippi steamer in the good old
fashioned days Of river racing, when
a negro sat on the safety valve and the
furniture and woodwork Of the boat
fed the fire. The captain, seeing a
rival boat half a mile ahead, ordered
tar, pine knots, naval stores, bacon,
etc., to be thrown in to kindle the fire
as hot as possible. AS the steam got
higher and higher and the old boat
trembled and groaned under the pres
sure the preacher drew nearer and
nearer to the stern. Noticing this and
never losing an opportunity to crack a
joke, the bluff captain tapped the ia
talist on the shoulder and said:
"Hello, Brother Blank! What's all
ing you? thought you was one of
them fellows what believes what is tc
happen will happen nohow."
$50 do" replied the clergyman
drawing himself up. $50 do, but
want to be as near the stern as possible
when it does happen"

The Way of Heather.

Where Sonnerbo township touches
the boundaries of Halland there is a
sandy heath which is SO farreaching
that he who stands upon one edge of
it cannot look across to the other.
Nothing except heather grows on the
heath, and it wouldn't be easy to coax
other growths to thrive there. To
start with, one would have to uproot
the heather, for it is thus with heather:
Although it has only little shrunken
root, small shrunken branches and
dry, shrunken leaves, it fancies that
it's tree. Therefore it acts just like
real trees-spreads itself out in fores'
fashion over wide areas, holds together
faithfully and causes all foreign
growths that wish to crowd in upon
it's territory to die out.-"Adventures
of Mis-" Translated From the Swedish
of Selma Lagerlof by Velma Swan

MosIem Architecture.

The moslem architecture at Agra
and Delhi so splendid, yet so short
lived, is SO distinctive of q dynasty
and so alien to the country as to be
chiefly significant of the influence of
the west on the east and stands alike
III it's permanence and in it's feeling or
ideality in remarkable contrast to all
that was before it, is around it and
has come after it. 1t is indeed curious
how young India is in art and how old
in her literature, her customs and her
social framework. There is no social
institution surviving in Greece or Italy
that can in respect Of age or of inter-
est compare with the Hindoo castles,
and there are no buildings or monu-
ments in India that can boast an an
tiquity equal to much that can be
found in the Latin and even in the
Teutonic countries of Europe. Only a
few of the ruder and smaller rock tenn
pies go behind the Christian era, the
greater and more elaborate belonging
to a more recent date, and it is but
what the later history would lead us
to expect when we find as regards re.

What a Good Play Must Have.

"a play should have continuous ac-
ton all the way through. When / al
Jude to action I don't necessarily mean
physical movement and pistol play"
says Daniel Frohman in ;Harper's
Weekly. "a successful play must con-
tain continuous struggle and battle
the struggle of love with duty, to name
the most frequent example. The char
acters may be sitting in their chairs,
talking pleasantly together, and still
fulfill this purpose. And the action
must go forward by leaps and bounds
from one climax to another The ideal
play will have the fewest characters,
but it will hold the attention SO that
you won't know whether there are six
or sixty, and two persons upon the
stage will hold the audience entranced,
as in the Greek drama. Like the Greek
characters, too, they will appear as
puppets upon dark background of
necessity, victims Of the circumstances
which they have helplessly brought
into existence"

A Misnamed Island,

The island of Madagascar is mis-
named. 1t should be called st. Lorenz
island. Marco Polo in his work on
Africa named stretch of land ON the
east coast, south of the equator, Mada-
gascar. Some time after this Martin
Belhaim Of Nuremberg prepared a
chart Of Africa, using Marco Polo's
works as a guide, but misunderstood
the report on Madagascar, thinking it
meant an island. He thereupon DELHI
erately added an island to the east
coast This imaginary island was
mapped on the charts of the geogra-
piers of the fifteenth and sixteenth
centuries In 1906 the Portuguese sea
captain, Fernando Svarez, discovered
the real island of Madagascar and
gave it the name of st. Lorenz, and
for a time thereafter two islands found
their place on the charts. In 1881 II
was known that there was really only
one island, and in accordance with
this discovery the original name OF
Madagascar was retained, and the
other name was dropped.

The Nobility.

The mobility" goes back to the very
beginning of human society, when
"wild in woods the noble savage ran"
At first the institution rested on brute
force. The physically strongest were
supreme. It was an aristocracy of
muscle and Drawn. BY and by intel
lectual cunning was added to the brute
strength, and the strongest and smart
est became the stop Of the heap
With the advantages accruing to 1t
from the possession Of the most
strength and cunning the mobility
intrenched itself so securely that il
could not be shaken, and well down
into the eighteenth century it was
practically supreme. BY the time OF
the French and American revolutions
however, the world was beginning tc
wake up to the fact that the ''nobil.
ity" was hoax and an imposition
and since those two famous events
the ancient institution has been In q

THE CHINESE FARMER.
He Is slevenIy, Twisted and Bent and
Queerly Clad.

He Is slevenly, Twisted and Bent and
QueerIy Clad.
The Chinese farmer gives the i'm.
preston OF man whose life has been
spent in downright hard work. There
is not single ounce of spare flesh
upon him. His face and hands are of
dark brown color, tanned into them
by exposure to the fiery faced sun of
the orient and to the open air influence
amid which his daily life is. spent. His
hands, unless he is still young, are
gnarled and twisted out of shape by
the constant grasping Of his hoe, the
one implement that to the Chinese
farmer takes the place of the spade
only in more extensive degree. He
never stands erect. He bends a little
forward having a slight list to the
left. This is due to his having to do
all his own carrying work. The ma.
nure to fertilize his fields and the wa.
ter to irrigate them when the rains are
insufficient are both borne on the left
shoulder of the sturdy farmer, and
when the ripened crops are housed and
the surplus is to be disposed of in the
city miles away it is the same mode of
conveyance that has again to be en-
ployed. Railroads and carts and wag.
ons and beasts of burden are Injuries
that are still beyond the reach of the
farmers of this land.
The whole look Of the man is that
Of a worker, and the very pose that his
body has taken is but an attempt ia
ease the strain that severe labor is
constantly putting on 1t. Unfortunate.
~ his dress does not add to his per.
sonal appearance. It consists of a
loose coat, buttoned by flap on one
side and reaching to a little below the
hips. The trousers are loose and bag
gy and extend to the knees. These
and his usual clothing are made of
cotton cloth, which is dyed with the
universal blue that seems to have such
fascination for the working classes.
AS the weather grows colder others of
the same kind and, where the purse
will allow of it, wadded garments are
added, but the legs and the feet even
in the coolest weather remain uncov.
cred excepting on very special occa-
sions when etiquette demands that
both shoes and stockings shall be worn
The Chinese farmer further adds to
his far from prepossessing appearance
by his utter neglect Of all habits Of
neahess. His head is shaved only al
considerable intervals Of time, and sc
the place that among the residents Of
the towns is clear shaved is covered
with thick bristly underground Of
black hair that has a most untidy and
slovenly look. His pigtail, instead Of
being plated and combed smoothly, il
allowed to grow at its own sweet will
and, following the Instincts Of nature
that longs for freedom, 1t sends ou1
struggling tufts here and there and 81
gives the wearer an unkempt and dis
orderly aspect. John MCGOWAN II

Mr.. Wilson has made many friends,
whose good wishes will go with him.
He is not only fine musician and a
good leader, but is pleasant and affa-

more than good, as he has not only
fulfilled his contract with the Civic I'm

was willing to go even further in order
to make things go smooth If the peo-
pie of Dickinson want to enjoy a good
thing they should arrange with Mr.
Wilson for the production of his opera.
