DANCED IN suRiNAM JUNGLE
Explorer Tells Part He Took in Fes-l
tIvItIes With the Daughter OF
Native Chief.

In Harper's Magazine Charles w.
Furlong told of attending dance OF
the native tribes in Surinam- South
Africa, and dancing with the daugh-
ter of chief.
THE commandant and Mr.. Smit
were with me opposite the drummers.
where Djoeka presented his daugh-
ter, q superb black creature, who, with
two other girls, advanced into the
ring. with coy step and posture, to-
ward three men, with whom they
danced in pairs; the girls, with a shy
tilt of the head and constant NOV
ing Of hands, passed and repassed,
turning closely about their partners,
but never touching. A girl would fol-
low q man of her fancy as he walk
ed from the ring center, then, as ne
turned at the edge, whisk away to q
hum of laughing approval.
Suddenly the dusky form OF the
girl previously presented emerged
from the throng with the same coy,
mesmeric motions Of the hands, al
most touched me, turned like Hash.
and was gone. A loud murmur rose
Smit nudged my arm. She likes you.
You have got to dance. b whispered
Every explorer knows il is sometimes
as unwise to accept such challenge
as 1t is sometimes indiscreet to re-
fuse. She advanced again with an
other girl; treasured by safety in
numbers, my strong susceptibinties
to the rhythm of music enabled me
to adapt some slight proficiency In
'buck-and-wing' dancing and to be-
come a moment later an integral part
| of that throbbing throng."

More Than a Little Amount Of Phiioso-

Having Credit.

For the twentieth time Dave, the

scented the check for the meal. For

averred that he had always paid cash
and always meant to pay cash.

tempt me this way Don't you think a
man ought to be proud Of paying cash
or his meals? I'm proud Of it. Don't
tamper with my virtue"
Whereat Dave, looking pityingly
upon the customer. enunciated the fol-
lowing:
Proud? Why should you be
proud? Hasn't it ever occurred to you
that anybody-some one we've never
seen in our lives at this restaurant
and don't know from Adam-can come
in here and pay cash for what he gets?
Now, ask you, can any Tom, DICE
or Harry sign his check?
! mo, sir To have credit, man must
have standing. The fact that you sign
for your meals gives you a standing.
1t means that you're regular fellow;
that you're known and respected. Pay
! cash? Bah! Any fool can do that!"
Without another word the regular
customer picked up the pencil. wrote
his name on the check. and put down
a quarter for tip.

TheGG IRE some today who can
look hack with warm emotion to the
life - the quaint red school houses
which once dotted the country. A
few OF these one-room halls of learn
ing still stand here and there, just
off the dusty roadways or behind
miniature Alps in snow according to
the season. Many prominent men
and women profited by the training
of these picturesque educational in
situations. Here we were taught the
three Rs and the rudiments of other
branches The masters formed the
young minds entrusted to their care
with the aid of the birch rod, the
Ounce cap and other primitive equip
ment. The science of pedagogics Of
the period was largely based Upon the
principle that "to spare the rod was
to spoil the child" It was the day
of singing geography and the spell
ing bee. Handwriting and literary
style were formed upon the old
fashioned school slate. Long before
the days of hygienic equipment the
water supply consisted Of a pail from
which all helped themselves with the
same dipper.

ployed in the little red school. And

all of the educational system which
had its first expression in that same

MADE His MEANING CLEAR
Neat Explanation Of Witness Turned
Laugh on famous English
Crose-Examiner.

At a trial between two London mu-
sic publishers before the court OF
kings bench in 1913, the matter IN
dispute being a violation of the copy
right in the song Of "The Old English
Gentleman Thomas Cooke, a COM
poser of some note in his day, was
subpoenaed as an expert witness.
On cross-examination Sir James
Scarlet questioned him as follows:
Now, sir, you say that the two
melodies are the same, but different.
What do you mean by that?"
Tom promptly answered:
81 said that the notes in the two
copies were alike, but with different
accents, the one being in common
time, the other In six-eighths time.
and consequently the position of the
accented notes was different"
Now, pray, sir, don't beat about
the bush, but explain to the jury, who
are supposed to know nothing about
music, the meaning Of what you call
accent
Certainly" said Cooke. Accent in
music is the stress laid upon par
ticular note in the same manner as
you would lay stress upon a word. for
the purpose Of being understood.
Thus if l were to say, You are an
ASS it rests on ass; but If l were to
say, YOU are an ass it rests on you,

Shouts of laughter followed this ex-
PLANTATION. Silence at length having

gravity, inquired:

piled:

Brother of Famous Ethan Allen.

Ira Allen, younger brother OF
Ethan Allen and one of the founders
Of Vermont, died 100 years ago in Phil.
adelphia. Born in Connecticut in 1851,
Ira Allen accompanied his brothers to
Vermont at the age Of twenty, and in
one year became an extensive land
proprietor He was lieutenant in Col
onel Warmers regiment in the Canada
campaign, and a confldant of General
Montgomery. He was first treasurer
Of Vermont and a member Of the board
of war during the Revolution. He was
prominent In the Haldiman negotia-
tons, and while his conduct gave some
color to the charge that he was ready
to surrender the territory of Vermont
to the crown, the fact remains that his
action delayed the contamination OF
an agreement and saved the territory
to the United States. In the latter
years Of his life Allen met with 1nan-
cial reverses and at the time of his
death he was harassed by creditors
and lawsuits.

When Thank. We're Given.

Many years ago a noted chief of the
tribe of Chippewa Indians while hunt

miles. The chase was long and very
severe, and the Indian was in the last
stages of exhaustion from fatigue and
lack of food and water when he found
himself on the top of wonderful
mountain. at the foot Of which nestled
q beautiful lake crystal clear. From
the surface of the lake trout leaped,
and upon the shore lay the deer he had
hunted Here were food. water. fish
and fuel for cooking
Raising his hand and facing the set

ed, ''Ish-pem- which in the Chip

The story was remembered, and the
name given by the Indian was adopted
by the white settlers when the present
