Live Jobs for Teachers.

Oregonian: There is such a uni
versal cry for more freedom and lib
erty for every man." said the great
/ Samuel Johnson, over century ago,
that soon there will be no liberty
or freedom for any man" There is
nothing new under the sun. The
clamOr grows for less restraint upon
the citizen and less and less author
ity. Let lie have no government be-
cause our governors sometimes abuse
their power. Let us have no more
well-to-do men because there are so
many poor. Let us abolish the legis-
lature because legislators are often
grafters. Let us have other laws,
for the laws we have are not 2ener-
ally obeyed. Let nobody rule any
body, and we shall reach the Golden
Utopia at last.
Now it is the school teachers who
fear the ruthless school machine, and
therefore they purpose to set up a
machine of their own. They have a
little bill up at the legislature which
will in effect give them life jobs in
Portland, for it will practically take
away the power o. the directors or
superintendent to dismiss them after
they shall have passed a two years
probationary service. Then they are
to hold on forever, unless after a
trial hedged in by many saving con-
ditions they shall be dismissed. The
burden of proof against any teacher
is thus placed upon the directors,
who must make out a specific case
on definite charges. The directors
who may desire to drop a teacher or
principal on sufficient ground of un-
fitness, or incompetence, or laziness,
or general worthlessness, will be
helpless. They must publicly give
their reasons and publicly Justify
them.
If there is anything the matter
with the present Portland school
board, it is possible through legisla-
tion or otherwise to get a new board
But the life-tenure scheme is not
movement against the authority of
particular school board, but of any
school board. The real complaint
against the Portland school directors
is not that they have dropped too
many principals and teachers, but too
few. ,... ,.

O Dogs 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 80 fishing
for crabs instead. The dogs hunt in
packs along the banks of the rivers in
the Amazon valley. and the crawtish
and land crabs of that region are their
especial prey. The crabs often put up
a vigorous fight, but the dogs have a
way of turning them over and biting
them in vital spot just as the thor.

MEXICAN BRIGANDS.
Pleasant Sort of People That Merely
Robbed Travellers.

Il was once for some weeks at a
sugar plantation. near a small provin-
cial town in Mexico" wrote the late
Mr.. Labouchere in 1879. in the town
lived brigand. He was highly es-
teemed by his neighbors, and passed
many pleasant evening with him and
his family. His daughter was a beau
ty. and this estimable parent was
amassing little fortune for her.
His habit was to ride at night TO
the road between Mexico and Vera
Cruz with two or three associates and
to levy contributions on the diligence.
When left the town | wanted to
strike this road, and | went with him
and his friends. We reached it at
about in the morning. Having par
taken of chocolate, the brigands post
ed themselves behind some rocks, and
l looked on. Soon the diligence was
seen approaching. The brigands emerg-
ed. the coachman stopped. the passen-
gers were requested to descend and
were politely eased of their money.
The passengers then took their
places again In the coach, aud it drove
off, while the brigands courteously
bowed to them. So honest were they
In their peculiar way that they wished
me to take my share in the spoil, but
this. of course, my standard of moral
ity being different from theirs, de-
clined. and wished them goodby.
Riding on to Peucla | dined at a
table d'hote that evening with the de-
spoiled travellers and was greatly
amused to hear them recount the val
orous manner in which they had de-
Tended themselves and how they at
last had to succumb to numbers"

The smallest state in Europe, the
autonomous republic of Moresnet. is on
the boundary between Germany and
Belgium.
Moresnet has an area of barely one
and quarter square miles and pop
ulation of $500. 1t owes its existence
TO boundary controversy for the con-
troll of once important zinc mine. \
boundary commission settling the from
tiers of Holland and Prussia after the
fall of Napoleon in 1914 was unable to
agree upon the ownership of this tiny
piece of land, with its valuable mining
rights. and finally left the question for
future settlement Neither power was
to occupy it. and it was administered
Jointly by the two states.
In practice the joint administration
soon resulted in an administration by
neither state. and the community be-
came autonomous under the protection
and tutelage of Prussia and Holland
and later of Prussia and Belgium. In
lS41 the two guaranteeing countries
regularized this and formally gave the
district its own independent admins
tration. 1t has no courts. but litigants

PRIMITIVE ARAB LIFE.
Desert People Still Have the Customs
of Abraham's Time.

VI
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 man dies his tent is torn down
and 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 u man may re-
peat the formula Ent telek 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
at animals or persons in Arab settle
ments.
Arabs say man gifted with this
malign power can look at a 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
allegory.-Christian Herald:

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-
ceed 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
hundredth and that of the whale to
-thousandth part of the bodily
weight OF these animals respectively
the brain of man varies from one-thir-
ty-fifth to one-thirtyseventh of his en-,

superiority of the human brain as com
