touch the pork.

little breeze started up and we began
Ito move again. Well. as soon as that
shark saw the salt pork moving away
from him. ne decided that he wanted

shark went faster until finally he
caught up snap-the deed was
done. He was too tired to fight and
he didn't struggle a bit while we haul

GREATEST LESSON OF LIFE
The One Thing Above All That .
Woman Should 30 Quick to Learn
and Remember.

The woman who makes good must
be blessed with strength and health
and an ambition to learn and take ad
vantage Of every opportunity that
comes her way. She must work with
all her heart and play with all her
heart: above all things avoiding in
difference.
Hers is the temperament that rec
ognizes that encouragement is all
nice and pretty, but II one Is going to
do the thing that counts one doesn't
need it; that refuses to be dismayed
by repeated failures and that has 9
certain faith that what has been done
by many may be done by another;
that nobody goes through life without
disappointments, heartaches and the
breaking Of pet illusions; that there II
nothing more common than trouble
but that 1t is the wise ones OF eartt
that keep it in the background. That's
the great lesson Of life.-Exchange.

and then sudde1 NY one Of these crea-
lures will carry of some lad bathing
In the river or even attack some one
padding along in his boat l know of
q Dyak girl who, when sitting and
padding at the stern of a canoe, was
knocked over into the water and car
ried away by crocodile and her
companions could do nothing to save
her.
There seems to be no reason why
the crocodile should suddenly show a
man eating propensity in this way.
The Dyaks account for it by curious
superstitions. They say that If food
is offered to a person and he refuses
it and goes away without at least
touching it some misfortune is sure
to befall him and he will most prob
ably be attacked by a crocodile.
Also it is said that one Of the ways
the gods punish crime is by sending a
crocodile to attack the culprit; and I
have often heard it said by Dyaks Of
some ono who has been killed by a
crocodile that probably he has dis
pleased the gods either by paying no
heed to the warnings sent him In
dreams or by means Of omen birds
or by committing some crime.
The Dyaks Of Borneo will not kill
a crocodile except in revenge. If the
animal will live at peace with him the
Dyak has no wish to start a quarrel;
~ hAwavor Tho nroNcdi1o hroo BE- ~ a
truce and kills some one then he feels
justified in retaliating. Under these
circumstances the Dyaks set to work
to find the culprit and go on catch
Ing and killing crocodiles until they
succeed in doing SO. The Dyaks gen.
orally wear brass ornaments and by
cutting open a dead crocodile they
can easily find out II he II the
creature they wish to punish.

ODD BELIEF OF THE BURMAN
Thinks tho Spirits Of Human Beings
Butterflies That Fly When the
Body Sleeps.

Burma.-Never anywhere in all our
wanderings had We seen SO many but
terfies at one time. They swarmed
in the sunshine like clouds of gnats.
Butterflies of every conceivable hue
like the throngs of gay, silk-clad Bur-
mese maids who gather about the rail-
road stations Of Lower Burma. They
carpeted the trail, futtering up before
our horses hoofs, perhaps to light up
on us, or upon the horses themselves.
or to drift OF down the valleys, or to
settle on the trail ahead, only to be
started up again.
The Burman believes the spirits of
human beings to be butterflies, which.
when the bodies to whom they belong
are at rest, may go fiuttering about the
world at will. Thus only for the
yravest reasons will one Burman wax
on another; for that butterfly spirit
may be wandering. who knows where.
and illness or death may come to him
who is walked before his spirit has re-
turned gently to arouse the sleeping
body.-Mary Blair Beebe, in Harper's
Magazine.
