Peculiar Views Of Life Entertained by
Eskimo Men and Women.

These people Of the white world,
these children of the snow and ice,
give themselves little concern regard
Ing what is going on in worlds be-
yond their own. The climate in which
they live and the limitations Of their
whole environment make it Impossible,
writes j. L. Harbour in Leslie's Week
", that there should be much change
In their own manner of life, and they
do not care for the changes that soap
and water might make in their domes-
tic life, while the women Of the fam
lily are not anxious to adopt changes
In methods Of cooking that might
make some of the dishes they pre-.
pare much cleaner and far less dead
~. than they apear to be. But the
best-hlled larder in the homes of the
most aff1uent of the Eskimos offers
little in the, way of variety in food and
the question so vexing to the Ameri.
can housewife: What shall We have
Tor breakfast?" or for dinner or sup
per- never troubles the Eskimo house
wife, since these meals may not vary
for months at a time and are pre-
pared in the primitive way in which
they were prepared by the Eskimos of
generations and generations ago.
The dress of the women and the men
is so much alike that If an Eskimo
lady's husbands clothes happened to
be better than her own she might Dor
row them to wear to some Eskimo So
ctety function without exciting any
comment as to her dress.
AS in some other lands, the man is
regarded as being vastly superior to
the woman, and the birth Of girl is
never regarded as blessing. Indeed,
1t often happens that both the father
and mother resort to that unayailing
folly of tears and lamentations when
1t is announced that new conner is a
girl. A boy can become great fish
erman or great hunter, while a girl
of what use is she? A mere cum
berer of the earth, regardless of the
fact that she works as many hours a
day as, and even more than, q man
when she reaches the goal of her am
bition and marries. Not to marry is
as sad a misfortune as may befall her,
and If she is married and widowed she
makes all possible haste in securing a
second partner. -.

HIS PREFERENCE DULY STATED.
Al Things Considered, 1t Was Up to
the COMMITTEES.

Many years ago Mr.. Hill, one Of the
pioneer shoe manufacturers, had a
shop In Stoneham, where he employed
as boss in his stitching room one Dan
Lowe, who, being a genial, convivial
man and a master Of his trade, was
liked and respected by all.
One fall the stitchers conspired to
make Dan a birthday present, but,
being unable to agree as to the nature
OF the gift, they called on Mr.. Hill to
advise them. Mr.. Hill, after solemn
thought, located Dan OH the top floor.
and thus addressed him:
"Mr. Lowe, the ladies of the stitch
ing room, being DESTROYS of making
you birthday gift as small token Of
their esteem, have subscribed $40 or
more, and are unable to decide be-
tween an easy chair, chain and seal
and several other articles. They ap-
pealed to me for advice, and thought
the wisest plan to ask you to express
your preference and thus satisfy ALL"
Mr.. HILL" said Mr.. Lowe, after due
reflection, II have a good chain and
paddock, strong enough to hold a ten
gallon key. A ten-gallon key Of good
whisky could be bought for $40, and
II had ten-gallon key of good whis-
ky well chained down in my cellar any
old chair would seem easy"
Mr.. Hill retired for further delibera-
ton.

GOLF FoR THE M4SsES.

President Taft has once more given uttcrance
to a sentiment dear 10 his heart, the wish that
golf shall become rs genuinely popular game
in this country as it is in Scotland. Wit, the
single exception of the Philippines there is no
subject which the President likes better 10 dis
cuss than golf aud its possibilities as = pOPu-
lar pastime He is convinced that the time will
come when all cities and most of the smaller
towns will have public golf links, where devo-
tees of the game will find ample opportunity to
play and where men Of mature years-that Is.
of years too far advanced 10 make baseball
entirely Safe-will find not only opportunity for
but temptation to healthy outdoor exercise.
There is much force in Mr. Taft's argument
that baseball is too strenuous a game for men
between fifty and seventy years of age and up
ward In fact. there are many men little past
forty who find both baseball and tennis too
strenuous. These can play golf however, on
even terms with their younger opponents. The
game can be suited TO the weather-payed
slowly when the mercury stands high in the
tube briskly when there is suggestion OF
frost In the air. Neither age nor sex is q bar
10 the game, although it is a sport which ap-
peals more strongly 10 men than TO women.
Were public golf links provided. there is little
doubt that the game would receive tremen-
doUs impetus for. rs Mr. Taft SAYS, there is
far more 10 it thar is popularity supposed or
than it Is easy to detect from merely watching
it played at a distance
Aside from the lack of convenient links on
which to play. however. the present high prices
of the paraphernalia must prove q material
obstacle To the widespread popularity of the
game. although that is a condition which might
he improved were the demand more general.
1t is undoubtedly true that golf sticks and golf
balls have intrinsic value commensurate with
the prices they command.

tn decision Of the highest court Of the State
Of Maine upholding as constitutional the ordi-
nance Of the town Of Bar Harbor excluding all
motor vehicles from the public highways of that
town is Of much local interest. To many OF
the inhabitants Of the place it will be crafty
ing. and TO o'some il will be unwelcome But 1t
is invested with vastly more interest and i'm
portance as a development Of the principle Of
local home rule and as a suggestion of addi-
tionaI possibilities in the further application of
the same principle.
The local ordinances of Bar Harbor directly
affect no other place, since Bar Harbor Is in
suar and detached in situation. But whatever
Bar Harbor can do any other town in the state
can do Therefore any other town may consti-
tutlonalIy forbid the use of automobiles on its
highways, no matter how much inconvenience
may thus be caused TO tourists and Ia the in
habitants of adjacent towns.
let us suppose. for example the extension az
the same system to this state Then Yonkers
and Mount Vernon and the other municipalities
north of this city might all adopt ordinances
excluding automobiles from their streets and
thus make it impossible for automobilists TO get
out Of New York northward or eastward. ex-
cept by taking long ferry trips up the Hudson
OF the Sound and landing 4 points beyond the
prohibitive TERRITORY Such state of affairs
would be intolerable. The mere suggestion If
il seems prepostcrous. Yet the possibility of its
realization Is affirmed by the highest court Of
Maine.
The matter is ia be commended TO the careful
consideration Of those who so dread the eXpr-
else of anything like general or central author
ity that they would make under the name Of
home rule, local option. " hat not else. each
community law unto itself There are doubt,
less some subjects on which state a county
or town may legisate for itself without
offence or detriment to others: but in ALI mat
ters in which the interests Of neighbors arc
concerned the very essence of civilization re
quires that regard shall be had for general
principles and for tho common good. There are
respects in which 4 community. great or small
can no more live unto itself than can an indi
vdual man, and the number and variety of
such respects increase with the growth Of social
civilization.
