TREE HOUSES OF THE pApuAns.
Cool and Clean, But Not Built for
oomNambuiists.

The famous tree houses Of Papua
are rapidly disappearing before the
march of civilization and settlement
in the colony.
The tree house--a neat and well
built habitation, placed at an enor-
nous height among the branches OF a
forest tree and reached only by a
swinging ladder-was primarily in
tended as a refuge from enemies Now,
however, that the government has
brought the wild tribes under control
the native prefers to live in a house
that demands less skill in construc-
ton.
There are still many tree houses to
be seen, though few or none are be-
ing built. In the northeastern district
of Papua (where much valuable sugar.
rubber and cocpanut land lies ready
for taking up) the government officials
on their regular tours of inspection
often sleep at night in the house of
some hospitable native village con-
stable, who draws his ladder up at
shutdown to doorstep so feet high in
the air.
These tree houses are exceedingly
cool, clean and picturesque, with the
roofs Of native made thatch and walls
and floors of waited boughs.

AGE NO MARK OF DISCRETION.
New York RoIIee Statistics Prove a
Most Lamentable Fact.

A woman shoplifter who had passed
the Psalmist's allotted period, and
who had long record of offenses be-
hind her, was sent to prison again the
other day, and In the printed accounts
much was made OF her years, as If age
and misdemeanor were strangers. AS
a matter Of fact, among women, youth
and disdemeanor are strangers If, we
make the test of the matter the fact
of falling into the laws clutches.
More than half the women offenders
Of New York are classified in the re-
port Of the state prison commission
as "middle-aged or elderly women -
OF the 6,644 women sentenced to the
Blackwells Island workhouse during
the last year, 3,463 were more than
80 years old About one in Is Of the
number were legal minors. Disorder
ly conduct and public intoxication &C.
counted for all but few hundreds of
the entire number.
There is really no surprise in these
figures, for the spectacle Of gray hairs
without honor Is not unfamiliar in any
Of our small parks. 1t would be SUI
perfluous to point the moral-and
Horace has done 1t already in his
warnings to Lalage and Chloe.

No Drums in tho Middle AGES.

AS we come to the Middle Ages,
when the nations of modern Europe
we're struggling into existence, we find
that at first, the drum was not used
at all. So. although melody had been
known and practiced for many CEN
turnes. rhythm had been quite forgot
ten. For what there is left to us Of
the music Of the Middle Ages contains
no bars, and we know that 1t was
slowly and monotonously chanted.
without the least accent.
In the eleventh century, however,
things began to improve, more par
ticularly as the Crusaders brought into
Europe all sorts of percussion instru-
ments from the east. Various kinds
Of drums, tambourines and cymbals
were then seen in Europe for the first
time since the days Of savages, and
they have been used, with very little
change, ever since.-St. Nicholas.

Amazing Appetites.

The appetite OF a whale is wonder

fish. He has simply to open his

order to take In jellyfish by the cart.

the whalebone whale. The sperm

shoals Of fish, weighing often several
tons. Like his brother, the whalebone

turned inside out without imparing
