A SOUTH SEA
ISLAND UTOPIA
Where Bountiful Nature Abund-
antIy Supplies the Every
Need of Man.

Hugo Parton, writing in the Outing
Magazine for January. says that the hap
piest and most beautiful spot on earth to-
day is the island OF Moorea, one of the
Sandwich islands in the South seas. As q
contrast to strenuous American methods
this description sounds alluring:
Whenever you are thirsty a word will
send a 1.-the brown body scrambling up
tall palm tree trunk and in two minutes
green cocoanut is ready for you to quafT-
the nectar OF the Polynesian gods. IL is
worth the trip down here to eat the native
'vittals,' for you get at every meal Things
you never tasted before, and each seems
better than its predecessor. To see your
dinner of fresh water shrimps, sharks fins
and roasted sea urchins. The bananas you
eat-there are IL var.eties-baked, raw,
fried, dried, grow 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 the back yard. Guayas grow in
such profusion they are used as pig food
grated cocoanut Is fed TO hens, while SEN
sitiye plant Is considered excellent fodder
for cattle.
For perfection Of the human body the
Tahitian is unexcelfea. II indeed he Is any
where equalled. They are a large race,
both men and women being noticeably tai
Ter and more fully developed than Anglo
Saxons. Every man looks like picked
athlete with sloping shoulders and barred
chests. A crowd of them together reminds
one Of the scene in a locker building to-
ward the end OF the fall when the varsity
squad is narrowed down and the after
moons practice IL just over. | doubt IL
any society islander ever went through a
whole day in his life without having a
wreath of flowers on his head or bios
som behind his ear The love OF flowers is
innate with man. woman and child: they
can't pass through patch of woods with
out emerging with a garland. Every gay
mood calls for flowers on their hats. in
their hair behind their ears-and their life
is an almost unbroken sequence of gay
moods. Scarcely native on the island OF
Moorea can speak a sentence Of English,
out everyone you meet greets you with a
courteous smile and the welcoming words;

When the Servant Reions.

Three things make earth EDqliet,
And four she cannot brook:
The piuus Agur counted them,
And put them in a book
These Four Tremendous Curses
With which mankind is Curst:
But a Servant when he Reigneth,
Old ARur counted first
Handmaid that is Mistress
We need not call upon:
A Fool when he is fun OF Meat
VIII fall asleep anon.
An Odious Woman married
May bear a babe and mend
But A Servant when he Reigneth
Is Confusion 10 the end.
His feet are swift to tumult,
His hands are slow to toll;
His ears are deaf TO Judgment,
His lips are loud in bToil:
And. If his folly opens
The unnecessary hells,
A Servant when he ReiEneth
Throws the blame on some one else

The Bread Was Bully"
From the BoOkmau.

FROM the BOOkm3n.
Once John Muir, author and ranch
man, was dining with a friend. They
sat down and Muir began to tell a
story. The waiter came around sew
eral times, but the story was so good
nothing was ordered Muir talked and
talked, and in between he would reach
over and break off "A piece of bread
from French loaf on the table. This
he did a good many times. The story
reminded him Of another. and so he
talked and ate bread, until his COM
panion broke in with:
We'll, what shall ! order for you,
Mr.. Muir"
"Order," he repeated in his abstrac-
tion.
Yes, Order-to eat
He looked over at the last little re-
manning piece of bread on the plate
and said, as IL waking from a dream:
Eat? Why. I've had all / want
that bread was bully"

PETTY CHEATS WITH STAMPS
Foolish Persons Who Run the Risk Of
Soino to Prison,

Soin9 TO FTIsons
You would be surprised" said post
office clerk, lat the efforts people make
to avoid the payment of postage. And
quite often 1t is not the work of chill
dren either The most common trick
is TO take the stamp that has been
cancelled by hand and the impression
just touches the edge of the stamp.
After picking the marked edge with a
pin or cutting 1t with pair of shears
to resemble the punctured edge Of the
starnp or tearing away that part, the
stamp is put on an envelope for an
other voyage. All these are placed in
the hands of postal inspectors for in
VeStigdtion.
Others try TO give the impression
that stamp had been put on an en-
velope and become loose and lost in
transit by sticking a stamp on the en-
Velope and then pulling It with part
OF the envelope sticking to it off again.
These as well as underpaid letters un-
less they have foreign destination,
where postage is then collected, are
marked returned for postage" and sent
back to the sender. Second class mat
ter, as a roll of newspapers, Is often
sealed against inspection by having the
stamps overlap the cover. Whether
foreign or not it is returned for postage.
When II again shows up, the mistake
rectifed. upon inspection, 1t is usually
found TO contain written letters, photo
graphs (unmountedD, jewelry, merchan-
disc of all kinds, making the package
underpaid, hence 1t is again returned.
But the limit of foolishness comes
when person tries to efface the in
delible ink from the stamp, and with
half The features of the stamp missing
or rubbed away and some of the ink
still remaining affixes 1t to an envelope
with the address of the sender upop tbe
back to facilitate investigation.

After the recent discovery of a new
rubber plant in Cochin-China comes the

MY wife had eczema for five or six
years. 1t was on her face and would
come and go. We thought we would
give the Cuticura Remedies a trial. We
did so and she has never had n sign OF
eczema for four years. myself used
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment
some time ago for falling hair. | now
have very heavy head of hair. We
used Cuticura Remedies for our baby,
who was nearly bald when young. She
has very nice hair now. She is very
feshy, and we had SO much trouble
with heat that we would baths her
with Cuticura Soap and then apply

else. Mr.. II. B. Springmire, 323 So.

Voluntary immolation on the funeral
pyre of her husband was of frequent
occurrence in India before Lord WILL
lam Bentinck's suppression Of it. In
olden times the tendency of thought
and feeling gave an impetus to the do
ing of such deeds. This devotion to the
departed husband Is not confined to the
widow only 1t is expected OF the wife,
in circumstances of unnatural conduct
on the part Of the living husband He
may spurn her; still she should not
only bow to her lord without a demur,
but be loyal to him.
