PRIMITIVE ARAB LIFE.
Desert People Still Have tho Customs
Of Abraham's Time.

In the wild deserts Arab life is as
primitive as in Abraham's time. Sheep
are still slain to seal VOW. The salt
or bread covenant is observed, and
when IL man dies his tent is torn down
md destroyed.
Old names such as Joseph. Moses
and Alexander are still in common use
among Arabs. though pronounced
"Yusuf," "Musa" and "Skandar."
To divorce his wife man may re-
peat the formula Ent teek three times.
Usually saying it once makes the wo-
man behave, and its repetition is not
necessary.
The EVIL eye superstition is com
mon. and the first injunction given a
visiting foreigner by experienced Ara
bian travellers is that he must not point
ut animals or persons in Arab settle
ments.
Arabs say man gifted with this
malign power can look at bird flying
in the air and that it will drop dead
that if he chooses to cast his wicked
spell on camel it may go lame or a
child so selected will be struck blind.
None of the lower class can read or
write. but the Arab is noted for his
ready wit and his habit of speaking in
ailegory.-Christian Herald.

The Human Brain.

In estimating the size of the human
brain in comparison with the brain of
other animals we must figure on not
only the positive size. but the relative
Were this not the case man would
stand below the elephant and whale,
as the brains of those creatures far ex-
coed mans in positive size. while as
regards relative size they stand so far
below him that. while the brain of the
elephant amounts to about the five
huSlredth and that of the whale to
se-fhousandth part of the bodily
weight of these animals respectively,
the brain of man varies from one-thir-
ty-fifth to one thirty seventh of his en-
tire weight. This shows the immense
superiority of the human brain as com
pared with the brains of the lower ami
nals.-New York American.

lous That Hunt Crabs.

A collector for the London zoo has
succeeded in capturing several crab
hunting and crab eating dogs in Brazil
The dogs are half fox. but they do not
seem to care very much for poultry.
They have been known to turn up their
noses at nice. fat pullets and go fishing
for crabs instead. The dogs hunt in
packs along the banks of the rivers in
the Amazon valley. and the crawfish
and land crabs of that region are their
especial prey. The crabs often put up
vigorous fight. but the dogs have n
way of turning them over and biting
them in vital spot Just AZ the thor

DEALING IN STOCKS.

Know What You Are Buying Before
Investing Your Money.
We hear of fortunes quickly made
in Wall street, Of miners who have
accumulated enormous wealth by a
lucky strike, Of inventions that have
made inventors rich. But how many
of these instances are there? Just Il
few, while countless thousands and
hundreds of thousands have lost every
thing In unsuccessful ventures.
The prosperous. successful man Or
woman is the one who buys with
knowledge Of what he or she is buy
Ing. whether it be a piece Of beef, a
dozen of eggs. a horse, a house or
stocks and bonds.
Money has been made in Wall street
and will continue to be made. Those
who buy stocks when they sell low and
sell them when they advance must
make money. The operation is no diff
ferent from buying house or farm
at bargain and selling it at a profit.
But one should exercise just as much
care in one transac elton as in the other.
Have nothing to do with those who
offer glittering opportunities to get
rich quickly. This will save your
money 1t may sound very nice to
say that one owns thousand shares
of n gold, silver or copper mine with
a par value of $4,000 and that cost
the holder only $50 or 500. But what
use is such a certificate unless it has
real value? Better put the $50 or
500 in one share of a dividend pay
ing stock and be satisfied with mod
crate returns and moderate profit on
any advance the stock may enjoy

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE.

J Time was when any one could spot
an imitation.
! It is harder to tell nowadays than
once.
! Even in personality.
/ For society has become so complex
in it's activities and its inter-relations
that the genuine has some ado to
keep its head above water.
! Taking has become fine art.
| Even taxing in personality.
| For the means of communication
have become so multiplied that the
mediocre, the commonplace and the
stupid can take on the gloss of super
iority.
And the gloss will have the appear
ance of gloss.
OF polish induced by the material
upon which the gloss appears.
Not of varnish.
But, after all, it is varnish, more
| frequently than not.
Varnish that scratches, chips off,
wears away, is dulled and toned down
and finally flakes Off in big patches
leaving the ragged sunerstructure ex-
posed to view.
Sometimes this ragged substance is,
of itself, impressive.
1t may, now and then, have a value
of its own.

And which, properly brushed up

/ But it is the imitation that holds the

sure, but no one but an expert can dis
cover it.
But what's the odds?
Especially if you can't tell the diff

Some day, though, you may want tc
