Great American Tragedienne.

One of the greatest tragediennes OF
the last century, Charlotte Saunders
Cushman, died in Boston nearly half
q century ago. leaving behind her one
Of the most inspiring and splendid
memories in all the history of the
stage. Miss Cushman was born in
Boston July %, 1916 Her early am
bition was musical, and she was just
at the beginning Of a successful oper-
attic career when her voice failed. Her
loss to music was a gain to the drama.
She first appeared as Lady Macbeth in
New Orleans, and soon gained rank in
England and America as the foremost
actress of the English-speaking world.
Forty-five years ago the great actress
began her farewell tour of America,
and on a day in May, 1875, an audi
ence that filed the Globe theater in
Boston saw Charlotte Cushman's last
appearance on the stage. She died in
less than a year afterward.

SHOULD REFER TO THE PAST
Word "Experience" Is One That Is FIRE.
quentIy Misused Even by
Writers Of Note.

The meaning and uses Of the word
experience is discussed in this man
ner by Archbishop Whately in his we'll
known work, Elements of Logic:
"This word (experience), in its strict
sense applies to what has occurred
within a persons own knowledge. Ex-
perience in this sense, Of course, re-
lates to the past alone. Thus it is
that man knows by experience what
sufferings he has undergone in some
disease; or, what height the tide reach
ed at a certain time and place.
"More frequently the word is used
to denote judgment which is derived
from experience in the primary sense,
by reasoning from that, in combina-
ton. Thus man may assert, on the
ground of experience, that the tide
may always be expected, under such
circumstances, to rise to such height.
Strictly speaking, this cannot be
known by experience. but is a con-
clusion derived from experience and
other data. 1t is In this sense only
that experience can be applied to the
future, or, which comes to the same
thing, to any general fact"

Queer Burial Custom.

Among the Indians of Alaska l1v-
ing along the rock bouEd coast of the
Bering sea many old customs prevail,
and it is still believed that when a
man dies he must pass forward
through four successive stages before
he reaches heaven. Thus his mourn
ers and family must spend four days
and nights in chanting songs or tell
Ing Of his virtues and must eat only
the foods of which he was fond. At
the end of that time the body of the
dead man is wrapped into bundle
and is hauled up through the roof
by strong ropes that the corpse may
not pass through any door used by
the living. Cremation follows and the
ashes are put into a bag and stored in
the great wooden chests which I'LL
the family grave house"
In the old days these ceremonies of
those four days were very elaborate,
and the songs and chants used strik-
ing in their solemnity. Now, how
ever, much has been modernized, but
they still dislike the thought of en-
tering a door through which a body
has been carried.

WHEN SAINTS ENTERED UTAH

Brigham Young, leading company

PaImerSton.

In the first place, it was always as
serted, with emphasis and even with
acrimony. that he (Palmerstcn) was
not wing. Gladstone, who did not
much like whiggery, though he often
used wings, laid it down that "to be
WING man must be a born WING"
and believe that the doctrine is abso-
lutely sound. But Palmerston was
born and bred a tory, and from 1907
to 1880 held Office in tory administra-
tons. The remaining 35 years of his
life he spent, for the most part, in
wing administrations, but a wing he
was not. The one thing in the world
which he loved supremely was power,
and, as long as this was Sc
cured. he did not trouble himself much
about the political complexion of his
associates.-G. w e. Russell

Dancing in Haiti.

Dancing to the music of a drum,
saxophone and flute is the chief source
OF amusement for Haitians in their lit
tie villages on Saturday night, accord
ing to an article by William AlmOn
Wolff in Golfers. Beginning at sun
down every Saturday night, he writes,
one will come to a wine shop, if one
follows the sound of the drum. The
drummer sits outside. His unceasing
drumming marks the rhythm Of the
music; what melody there is, is borne
by flute, and almost always there is
a saxOphone. The music is the same
at every dance. 1t is in common tone;
a single cadence is repeated, over and
over again.
Dancing in Haiti resembles the sat
urnalia among the Australian aborigi-
mes, Mr.. Wolff writes. The dancers
are frank and unashamed and one gets
little or no feeling of q personal note
between the two one sees dancing;
rather they are staging a spectacle.

SMILE HAS DISTINCT VALUE
Popularity by the Exercise
of a "Grouch."

In debate in the national house Of
representatives one member charged
the members on the other side with
being a continual Crouch Is 1t nat
ural for men, especially politicians. to
be grouches? Have they not yet learn
ed the value of a smile?
This busy world, with it's wonderful
revelations, it's tremendous pOssibili-
ties, has no use for the "grouch." The
minister who never smiles misses the
sweetness of religion. The lawyer
who never smiles loses more cases
than he wins. The merchant who
never smiles loses trade. The general
who never smiles loses his grip on his
men. The politician who never smiles
usually stays at home. The sales
man who never smiles loses his posi-
ton.
Somehow people don't like a
Crouch" a man who doesn't know
how or when to smile.
A smile is the biggest asset to any
man or woman. 1t means admirers,
good nature, health-and wealth. 1t
disarms a foe and makes friend. It
builds hope, banishes fear. It opens
the door to the joys of life and the
riches of existence. 1t is jewel be-
yOnd price.

Known as LATEST of Birds.

The LATEST of birds is the frog
mouth. He sleeps all day, and at
night, instead of flying about in search
of food, he sits on limb and literally
waits for the insects to come and feed
him. He is such a sound sleeper that
you can push him off his perch with
a stick and not wake him. He inhab-
it's Australia and the islands of the
Indian ocean. In size the frOgmouth
resembles the whippoorwill, and gets
his name from his wide mouth, which
serves as his insect trap. Too lazy
to fly for his food, like other birds. he
crawls along the limb of tree, open
ing his wide mouth and swapping it
shut, catching what flies and gnats
come within his range. At night he
perches with his mate on the roofs of
houses, on fences" or stumps. Only
after the sun goes down does he show
any inclination to move about.

Petroleum in Mexican Lake.

For hundreds of years Mexican In
dams had horror of what they called
the pest spot of Lake Chapala, near
the shore at Tizapan. They would not
battle in it or sail around it, declaring
that the water was oily. Then, after
a time, they cautiously began to paint
wooden boats with this oil. which
proved so effective in keeping out the
water that it became the general GUS
tom to use it. They did not know that
this was petroleum gushing up through
the water-a magnificent flow, about
two miles out in the lake, which to
this day gushes apparently without
varying. When the water is low
petroleum floats in solid masses, each
large globule weighing about %
pounds.
