The Spear and Bow and Poisoned Ar
rows Their Chief Weapons.
Our knowledge of the pygmies of
New Guinea shows that In habit they
are nomadic, nowhere filling the
ground, but depending for their living
entirely on their skill in hunting and
fishing. Their chief weapon is the
bow, their arrows being generally
poisoned either with the famous upas
nr some other similar vegetable poison,
in some cases a species of strychnine.
They also make use of the spear and
an ingenious form of spring gun
which is common TO numerous other
forest tribes This is formed by set
ting fiattened bamboo spear attached
to bent sapling, which is fastened to
trigger in such way that it is re-
leased by the passerby stumbling
against an invisible string stretched
across game track. These spears are
really set for game, and to the initi-
ated they are obvious enough. as their
presence Is always indicated by GER
tain well known signs. such as

In war these signs are removed, the
removal being equivalent to the NOV

wounds inflicted by these hardened
bamboo spears are necessarily serious.

OLD CLIPPER SHIPS.
Records That Were Made by These
Fast Sailing Vessels.

| 49, ~N''''5 NSSSN'S'
In these record smashing times
one is apt to smile when mention is
made of fast sailing ships of other
days, but it is a fact nevertheless
that no mean records we're achieved
by the famous American clippers of
the last century, many Of which
were even faster than the majority
Of the steamers today. Today even
there are sailing ships that with
anything like fair breeze can out
strip nine out of ten ocean tramps.
During the period between 1850
and the civil war the Flying Cloud
made some neat records in the
Transatlantic trade. and these stood
till they were surpassed by the ia
nous Guion liner Alaska in 1882.
The Flying Cloud made one days
run Of 433 knots and another of
42T knots, equal to about twenty
one land miles an hour.
During theeperiod between 1910
and 1860 there we're packet ships
that beat the mail steamers across
the ocean eighty-six times, Dick
ems crossed in the old Britannia, a.
steamship, but he returned by the
packet George Washington, which
beat the liner home by twenty-nine>
hours.
A small packet boat, the Fidelio,
of about 500 tons, accomplished the
Atlantic trip in 10 days 7 hours,
and the Dreadnought, whose own
ers boosted that she had never been
beaten in race, averaged on one
trip 16 knots an hour.
There was a British ship, the
Thermopylae, that made a really
wonderful record from Melbourne
to London-sixty days, an average
of - knots an hour for the voyage.
She came home afterward from
China in ninety-one days. The per-
Torrance of the Thermopylae show
ed speed greater than that of
most freighters Of today.
1t is a fact that with fair wind
the big five and six masted schoon-
ers of today develop speed that
frequently enables their crews to
have the pleasure, coming up the
coast deep with cargo, of sailing
pleasantly. past some Norwegian or
British tramp steamer plugging
along on its most economical coal
consumption at IA rate of 6 or 8
knots an hour.-Harper's Weekly.

close Attention Always Necessary to
Realize the Best.
There can be no definite rule laid
down as to the temperature at which
the cream should be churned, as diff
ferent creams require different tenn
peratures. The fat is in the form of
microscopic globules, and they must
have certain degree of softness if
they are to unite.
When the cream enters the churn
that is properly ripened and contains
should be such that the cream will
churn in thirty to forty-fve minutes.
This will give an exhaustive churnin2
and leave the butter in condition in
which it can be easily handled with
out inJuring the texture
Before putting the cream in the
churn the churn should be thoroughly
scalded and as thoroughly chilled with
cold water. The advantage of this is
that it will freshen the churn and fill
the pores in the wood. so that the
cream and butter will not stick to it.
The outside temperature of the churn
ing room should be as nearly as possi-
Bile the same as the churning temper
ature. If it is warm the cream will
warm up rapidly and the butter will
likely be soft and will require more
washing to remove the buttermilk.
1t is useless to lower the cream rap
idly to the churning point just before
churning. 1t should be there at least
two hours before churning. The rea-
son for this is that fat is ! slow con-
ductor of the heat, and, although the
serum has cooled and the thermometer
reads the right temperature, the fat
has not actually reached it, and the
results would be the same as if churn-
ed at an actually higher degree.
