ornamented With Scars.

The natives of some of the islands of the Pacific are always glad to see the doctor on his periodical visits. At Kaiser Wilhelm's harbor the German government has stationed pr. Heise- gang as medical officer. He is busy man. Natives by the dozen come to him, not to be treated for illness, but to get the benefit of his professional opinion on how to scar themselves ar- tistically. The natives are very fond of scars, and nearly all of them are covered with specimens which have resulted from self inflicted wounds which were kept open by frequent scratching or by the introduction of foreign substances like sand, bamboo, shells and so forth. The excrescence which results from the average vacci- nation is scratched of at the proper time, and the resulting large scar is very dear to the native. A young islander whose face and body are a mass of cuts, bruises and scars is con- sidered the catch of the season by the dusky belles.

 That gave me confidence in Judge Baldwin, declared MT. Vincent, that has never been shaken
 MT. Vincent then launched into a vigorous defence of Judge Baldwin 8 action in naming the members of the old railroad commission as the new Public Utilities commission.
 What could you expect a man in Governor Baldwin's position to do?'' asked MT. Vincent; would you expect him to name men of no experience. of no training, to position of such that it is now the same old com mission, same old grind, same old pro- ducts.''
 ''I say that that attitude is most un- fair. Stop lcriticising.' Place your faith in the commission. Help them, trust them. believe them, watch them. (Applause). Before you criticise them, wait until you find something that they havey done, which you think is wrong. Then take it up with them. if you will. But help them instead of attempting to pull down. Create and build up-that is the only way to better citizenship" (Applause.).

A Joke nat Failed.


 The clerk of a supply store in southern Colorado did not know In- dian nature very well when he invited a Ute chief to a boxing bout. After explaining the use of the gloves, which the chief seemed to readily under stand, they went into vacant room in the rear of the store to spar. The gloves were adjusted. and the clerk invited the chief to hit him. This, of course, he failed to do, as Indians nev- CT strike with their hands in conflict. All at once the clerk struck out, and, catching the chief under the ear, land ed him on the floor. This was enough. The Indian sprang to his feet, pulled off the gloves, jerked out knife, and the clerk had to run for his life. For tunately heNuanaged to keep out of reach until Come friends caught the infuriated Indian and held him until he cooled of. Then the clerk explain. ed tke joke, but with very poor suc- cess. The chief consented to forego vengeance for the insult. but he was never friends with the clerk again St. Louis obe-Democrat.

,Iefferson a. an lnventor.


 Not many people know that Thomas Jefferson was a great inventor. His in- ventions were all of articles of every day use. He devised a three legged folding camp stool that is the basis of all camp stools of that kind today. The stool he had made for his own use was his constant companion on oc- casions of outings. The revolving chair was his invention. He designed light wagon. A copying press was devised by him and came into general use. He also invented an instrument for measuring the distance he walked. A blow and hemp cultivator showed that his thoughts were often on agri- cultural matters. His blow received gold medal in France in 179O. Jeffer- son never benefited financially by his inventions, but believed they should be for the use of everyone without cost.

They couldn'x Help 1t.

During the American invasion of Porto Rico, in the course of the war with Spain, General Tasker H. Bliss with his troops, was stationed near a village held by an overwhelming force of Spaniards. Orders were to keep his ''eye peeled' and, if he heard any, thing suspicious, to fall back about eight miles. Instead of this his men turned in one day and captured the village, chasing the Spaniards out. The next day the commander of the American forces came along to find Bliss sitting in front of the home of the chief man of the village. The com mander asked him why he had attack ed the Spanish force, when he knew that he was outnumbered. Couldn't help it," said General Bliss. You see, my men have been hungry for some days, and the wind blew toward them from the village, and some squaw was frying onions over there. And SOL Argonaut
