great tlieoogians who do not think that theology must go." Theresare thinkers, even revolutionary thinkers, who regard the old religious Russia as the most pow erful and democratic populace in the world: there are travellers, even English travellers, who think small potatoes of the Japanese. Whether or no they are right they are certainly able and fa- nous; they are men of European reputa- tlon, of a position as high as that of their opponents who say the opposite, If you say that all modern minds are tending in one progressive direction, you prove your own provinciaity and even baekwardness. If you think that all great Europeans are advanced" you must be yourself behind the times.
 If it is to some extent true that we hear more of certain writers like Zola or Tolstoi than of greater writers like Barres and Dotoievsky, -the reason is amusngly simple. It is because the opinions of Zola and Tolstoi happen to be the more fashinable opinions In the particular pro vince of which we are provincials The process, properly understood, is highly entertaining. It Is as if a poor old con- servative spinster in Devon village were to say, But it is surely very remarkable that all the really statesmanlike and patriotic public men are known to be tories while all the most ill-judged speeches and ill-dgested bills are always introduced by liberals. I can prove 1t from a whole file of the Standard"
 The greatest men of letters in France were divided into two very nearly equal parties over the enigma of Dreyfus. One of them. Zola, happened also to have fin England and other countries a certain special and quite irrelevant sort of sue cess; a sort of success of which I will

DIVISION OF GREAT MINDS
Popular Delusion That the Worlds
 Best Intellects Can Be Grouped

c. K. Chesterton. In the Illustrated Lon-
 don News.
 There is one very silly trick of words which has taken hold of many sects ana sections of today I mean the hapit or saying. ''All the best intellects or today think so and so"-as the divorce IS whole some; or that alcohol is unwholesome or that miracles do not happen; or that strikes should not happen; or that so- cialism must come; or that theology must go; or that Russians are rotten or that Japs are jolly. Now. the best intellects are not agreed on these things-or on anything else. There never was time when our civilization was quite so Hat tened and degraded that all the clever people thought the same thing, There are great doctors who defend alcohoi; serious sociologists. even in agnostic cir cles, who distrust divorce (Matthew Ar mold did, for example); there are hard headed scientists who have been con- vinced of psychic marvels: there are hard headed socialists who think striking more practical than state arbitration; there are strong and able opponents of peasant pro- prietorship, taxation of land values, anar- chist communism and other alternatives to socialism; stranger still. there are even

presented to the trade. I found that American hams were bought by European merchants, shipped to Europe and dressed in tinfoil or a similar bizarre garnish- ment and then sent to Brazil, where they sold more readily than the hams shipped direct from the United States and com nIanded better price than the American product The same was true of the butter which came all the way from Denmark, being put up in brightly paint ed and papered cans. It was preserved by being heavily salted and it's saline qualities were washed out just before using. It was the bright cans that sold the butter.
 It will not be amiss, nor lacking In in- teIest to tell here how some of the native butter is churned. The milk Is placed in a skin bag fastened to a long rope. The other end of the rope is attached to the ponmel of a saddle upon a spirited steed. The farmer mounts his steed and rides a dozen miles to town, dragging the bag after him upon the ground, and as the roads are full of stones the pumping which the milk receives turns it to butter lcng ere he reaches the city.
 Childish. but clever, are the imple- ments employed by the Brazileiro in hunting the deer. One of these which graces the wall of my den is known as the bollero. It consists of three thongs of raw hide some six or eight feet long each anddfastened together at one end. Upon the other three ends are leather bags filld with a round stone. The stone is encased when the leather is green and as it cures it tightens around the stone until it becomes as hard as metal. In chasing the deer the hunters go on horse- back and after twirling the bollero around his head after the manner that our cowboys handle the lasso; he throws it around the legs of the fleeing game. The animal becomes entangled and falls when it is easily captured by its pur- suer

 The severe social restrictions observed between the sexes by even the lowest classes in Brazil is pronouncedly notice able at their public dances. The dance
 is most peculiar, being quite fascinating at first, but running into the monotonous.
 They surpass us in dancing in one re-
 speet, that is they keep time to the music.
 While the whole throng sways with the accurate precision of perfect mechanism the individual couples pirouett and cayort III fantastic figures with that indescrib- able movement of the hips and boise of body characteristic of the Latin races in dancing and brought to perfection among the Spaniards, which would savor strong ly of the ludicrous were it not for a pe euliar subtleness and mobility of physi- cal action suggesting the weird and su- pernatural. Round and round in bewilder- ing whirls they move, the general course of gyration unvarying, the minor passes delineating a line of convolution which, while veering toward, never completes the reverse, the sinuous coil of the ser pent the stately glide of the swan, the hesitatlng advance of the feline and the charming grace of the gazelle being all commingled in the same terpslchorean gesture.
 At the close of each musical rendition the women are immediately conducted by their partners to the matrons or chap erons ranged along the wall and the men as promptly retire to line ofNbenches on the opposite side of the room, there being no conversation in the interim.
 This segregation of the sexes. however, renders the men extremely gallant and it is a common custom for a lover to lift his hat on passing the home of his sweet heart, even though all the windows of the residence be closed and the young lady nor any member of her family is in evil dence.
