his hands and OF his brain has kept

when have they found time TO do
It all?" you ask yourself. But you are
to know more OF the work which in
Holland never ceases. or the work
which goes on within those houses you
know nothing until at Delft you make
your first acquaintance with a Dutch
kitchen.
The kitchen is properly a large room
as compared with the other rooms in
the house. for II Is the gathering place
at all times for the family. The table
is round and stands not quite In the
center OF the room. but so that the
mistress. sitting at one side. can reach
her hand out to the stove without ris-
ing.
In one corner OF the kitchen is such
bed as you have never seen before.

closet on one side and the corner OF

The Yarn That Was Spun by a Trav-
eier In Australia.
An Australian traveller says that he
was one day walking in the thick
scrub. collecting specimens. when he
came upon a large light brown snake,
species OF python, coiled upon the
ground
He was by far the finest one he had
ever seen at large. He was probably
ten or twelve feet long and as thick
as mans leg at the knee.
He looked savage enough to devour a
man. and at first the collector felt half
inclined to run away.
He recovered himself, however. and
was on the point Of shooting the SER

occurred to him that he would be
worth FIVE times as much II he were
taken alive.
Il had" he says, "a leather strap
with buckle in my game bag, and
with this determined to moose the
snake
Il started toward him, but when I
came near he partly uncoiled, opened
his mouth very wide, thereby discIos-

ION our arrival ut the house placed
at our disposal we congratulated our
selves on our good fortune In having
such q cordial welcome. but we were
speedily dlsiilusioned. We had not been
there more than hve minutes when
Feysurs head slave. a richly dressed
parsonage called Dahm. came TO tell
us that the emIr would not take our
camels or our money as he had plenty

too true and during our ave days stay
there there was continual procession

impossible for us to refuse. At last we
had practically nothing OF any value

and other articles OF our kit.
Apart from this system of more or
less polite robbery we were well treat |
ed by the emir and had our food sent
us from the castle by him. About
three or four times a day we had a
royal command from him and used to
go up to the castle and drink many
cups OF coffee and excellent sweet tea ,
with him and talk about his country /

In the Red sea reefs OF bright pink

the rocky bed OF this sea is the work
or the coral insect. But probably the
true reason for the name OF the Red

isolated Place.
There are few names more widely
known In the United States or Iocsii-
Ties about which greater Ignorance
prevails than Cape Hatteras. Situated
as IL Is at the angle where the long
strip or sand beach from Cape Henry
south turns at right angle to the
westward. with the widest part M
Pamiico sound between it and the
mainland and with the beach both
west and north cut into several islands
by inlets from sound to ocean. its Do
sftion Is Isolated. No means OF trans
portation exist along the beach. and
with the nearest railway station from
which a regular Transportation route
is operated nearly a hundred miles
away II Is an easier place to talk
about than to visit.
Like all sand promontories. the point
or the cape Is always moving. An old

One Course Of Treatment For the Cure
Of the Disease.
To cure rheumatism II Is necessary
to rid the system OF the excess OF uric
acid. and to do this a proper diet is
even more important than the use OF
drugs. though In very severe cases the
latter are not TO be despised In con-
junction with the dieting that is abso-
lutely essential.
The Massachusetts, General hospital
OF Boston allows the following diet FOR
its rheumatic patients: Graham or
brown bread. white bread Omitted to
one-haif slice daily. corn. rice, milk.
eggs. Hour. puddings. crackers, beans,
peas. all kinds OF vegetab les. exeept
potatoes. Tomatoes and asparagus, rhu-
barb. fresh fish. butter, cheese. but
termilk. cream, alkaline waters and
toast. Avoid red meats. starch or
potatoes. white bread and sugars.
The sensible use OF water both In
ternaliy and externally plays a large
part In the prevention or cure of rheu-
matism. One or two glasses. either
hot or cold. taken before breakfast
every morning Is excellent to start the
organs OF digestion for the day, and
at least one glass should be taken be-
tween meals. Often the plain water
