Mrs. Taper outlined briefly the

Then she spoke of the excellent

that the women Of our country are

BY referring to a map of the Island
Of Mindanao you can readily find
these places.
There are still sporadic outbreaks
N the Moro country, and every now
and then someone is killed That
portion of Mindanao which l visited
would scarcely be suitable for res
idence for an American woman, with
the exception of zamboanga, and
individually should not care to live
there myself. There are very few
Americans aside from the class
which you mention in your letter,
viz: the army There IS of course
an occasional school teacher and
some few civil government employ
ees, but their number is not large
enough to make much of an impress
sion on the Island of Mindanao. A
large portion of the Island is under
military government still, the civil
government having extended, up to
the present time, to one of the north
ern provinces, l think Surigao.
Business has been somewhat de-
pressed here since the election last
fall. the status of the Philippines
being in some doubt, owing to the
agitation for the Jones bill.
AS you are no boubt familiar to
some extent from your residence
here with the native element, l pre-
sumo you can readily appreciate that
business investments in the islands
would not be desirable under an in
government.
Mrs. Gorton has never liked it
here. We have lived in Manila with
the exception of three months when
we were living at Bagu.o in the
province of Benguet. The summer

The Oldest Book.

The oldest book in the world to
which positive date can be assigned
is an assortment of proverbs some
what after the style of the proverbs
collected by Solomon. The work is ac-
credited to Ptah-hotep. an Egyptian
king. and Psychologists assign to it an
antiquity of at least 300 B. G.. Abra-
ham was called to leave his home in
Ur of the Chaldees 1921 B. c., so that
this volume was written LOO years
before the beginning of Jewish his

chronologists at B. G. 234S. so the

THE VANISHING SEA cow.
A Marine Curiosity That Is Rapidly
Nearinc Extinction,


One of the largest fish that has in
habited the waters of the gulf of Mex.
leo and the south Atlantic coast of
this country and which is almost ex-
tinct is known as the manatee. 1t was
found in great numbers a century ago.
and even few years back this crea-
ture was quite plentiful in certain To-
calities.
It is very gentle for a large fish and
easily captured in heavy nets. which
are usually stretched across the mouths
of rivers emptying into the south At
lantic or the gulf of Mexico. The flesh
is very delicious and brings a high
price, having strong resemblance to
the very finest veal. The skeleton is
valued at 500. and the skin if removed
properly and cared for by those who
understand it's properties will bring a
like amount.
This fish is often from ten to twelve
feet in length and weighs about 1000
pounds. 1t is so gentle it will not
strike the light craft that happens to
be near it. and when captured it shows
no resistance whatever
1t is safe to say that in the next
quarter of a century this creature will
become extinct unless specimens are
preserved simply to prevent the COM
plete loss of one of our most wonder
full sea creatures.
1t lives wholly on salt water vegeta
ton and growths found in the mouths
of the rivers emptying into the sea-

CURIOUS PLEASURE.
Sympathy That May Be Excited by a
Paroxysm of Mysteries.


Some persons derive pleasure from
receiving sympathy. and this often
causes them. especially if they are
women who have suffered soEe Attic
ton. to affect very demonstrative
grief, its paroXysms timed with shrewd-
~ selfish cunning so as best to attract
lhe attention and secure the sympathy
Of those about them. Often from be-
ing simulated or exaggerated these fits
become real
And there are other persons who de-
rive strange satisfaction from excit-
ing the anxiety and even the distress
of their friends. This is not uncom-
mon among small children. who are,
however, easily cured by ignoring their
outbursts. Petting them makes them
worse. Hysteria in young women is
often simulated. In his work on The
influence of Education on Diseases of
the Nervous System DR.. Carter says:
when once young woman has dis
covered her power to produce a hysteric
paroXysm at will and has exercised it
for her own qualification without re-
gard to the anxiety or annoyance it
may entail on her friends very re-
markable effect is speedily produced
upon the whole mental and moral ma
ture. The pleasure of receiving un-
wonted sympathy once tasted excites
a desire for it that knows no bounds"
