THE straight backs and erect car
riage Of the Loo Choo women are due
to the custom Of carrying everything

"The most striking thing about Naha
and Shuri are the high stone walls
which surround the houses. These
walls are generally covered by small
banyan tree, called the gOja maru,
growing like great vine and sending
out numberless roots which sometimes
reach hundred feet from the original
stem.
"These also serve as hiding place
for a snake, q kind of adder, six or
seven feet long, which is the curse of
the islands. Their bite Is generally
fatal In few hours, and many people
are killed by them each year."

sit passes through successive ages.
or stages, as they are called. each one
of which is separated from the other
by moult or casting of its outer
shell.
These mouths take place at fixed
periods, and as the insect finds itself
restrained by Its firm, inelastic skele-
ton, a longitudinal rent occurs along
the back, and the insect, soft and dan
gerously helpless, struggles out of the
old skin inclosed in new but delicate
cuticle, which takes some time TO
harden and color up.
Whether this creature has q per-
sonality or hot may be forever ex-
tremely difficult for humans to decide.
It's eyes, that look like cows eyes,
really cast thousand images on a
special kind of brain, so different from
our own that we cannot understand IT..
and then besides these great big eyes
ii has three others. Its short, ringed
horns are not horns at all, but sense
organs of so complicated nature that
we do not yet know certainly whether
they are organs of smell or not, and 1t
is supposed that they may be the seat
of sense organs that we humans do not
have.
"In front of the great thighs imbed-
ded on each side Of the body are the
sO-called ears, tuned no doubt TO catch
vibrations of the air far too delicate
or too frequent for our ears.
"The jumping legs of the creature
are filed with powerful muscles,
which, when they expand, can hurl IT
through the air and enable 1t TO es-
cape from it's enemies. On the inner
side, along the lower rib, of the wing,
is the musical instrument. 1t Is row
of hard. bead-like projections, which
are very highly developed In the
males, but not at all in the females.
When the edge of the wing is scraped
over these projections a musical sound
is made"

THE CHRISTOPHER: MUSI.
CLAN, MONSTER AND
AVIATOR

Once more the ravenOus grasshopper
wrought devastation upon Western
fields this fall, and the plague became
especially destructive In Texas.
Writing to the National Geographic
society, David Falrchild describes this
fascinating, If ruthless, creature as
follows:
"The young king grasshopper is
probably twenty days old and it's wings
have not developed, but II can jump a
hundred times its length, whereas man
can scarcely cover three times his
length at leap. When its wings grow
and its internal air sacs fill with air It
can sail away for miles. One represent
tative of this great family can sail for
a thousand miles before the wind. and
they 60 in such numbers that they
make a cloud 1000 square miles in ex-
tent.
'Its great front lip hides a pair of
jaws as effective as hay-chopper, and
II has an appetite as voracious as that
of a hippopotamus. This voracious-
ness and these jaws are what have
made several of its relatives the
plague of mankind. They multiply An
such numbers as to battle all calcula-
ton, and every living green thing for
thousands Of square miles disappears
down their threats, leaving the coun-
try they infest desolate.
when the young grasshopper

indeed-a wingless, helpless little
creature, all legs and mouth.

WOMEN THE FINANCIERS
OF A FORGOTTEN
KINGDOM

Along busy highways of ocean tray

routes, yet visited by only two or three
white persons q year-such are the
Loo Choo Uuchu or Ryuku) islands.
Loo Choo Is land full of the indie
scribable charm and mystery of the
Orient, but replete with the pathos of
a vanishing race" writes Roy Chap
man Andrews to the National Geo
graphic society.
BIN, although II has been 40 years
since there sounded the death knell
Of this little hidden kingdom, Loo
Choo Is not yet Japan. The traveller
realizes this even before he lands. The
pine-clothed, tomb-dotted hills which
form the background of the strange
little cities of NafIa and Shuri have
an unfamiliar look and the pretty tiled
roofs of the diminutive houses, just
visible over the surrounding gray
stone walls, give fascinating hints of
what may be found beyond their lac
quered gateways. On their entire 900
square miles Of land only one white
man, an American missionary, is resi-
dent.
with our money changed, we began
to look about to spend II, for Loo Choo
Is the home of the red lacquer ware
famous throughout the world. Much
of II is exported, and the finest of the
boxes, bowls, trays, tables, ETC., which
are In daily use In japan and China
and sold to tourists throughout the
Orient. come from the little city of
Naha, or Shuri, its neighbor across the
hills. The lacquer ware, when first
made, is a dull brown, but really first
class pieces improve with age and soon
change to beautiful vermilion, be
coming brighter and clearer the longer
they are used.
when we came to buy lacquer we
were greatly surprised to find that bar
gaining had no place In Loo Choo.
Without exception, the first price
asked for an article was the one for
which II was sold. Never In the ORR
emit had we met with a similar condi-
ton.
'Tt was interesting to find, also, that
the women Of Loo Choo conduct all
business and have charge of every
thing pertaining to money-with the
single slight exception Of spending IL.

SANTO DOMINGO: FIRST
LOVE AND LAST RESTING
PLACE OF COLUMBUS

Christopher Columbus, in placing the
great western hemisphere on the map
Of the world, left his impress more
deeply On what Is now the Dominican
republic than on any other bit Of land
In the New World.
The very name Of the capital of the
republic, Santo Domingo, whose ward
ship under the United States has been
under public discussion recently, Is a
family affair with the Columbuses.
The great discoverer named for his
father this first permanent city estab-
lished by Europeans in the Americas.
The same name Is applied to the ISL
and Of which the republic is a part
almost as commonly as Its aboriginal
name, Haiti; and finally the paternal
name is further perpetuated In that
Of the republic itself.
The remains of Columbus are be-
lieved by investigators who have ex-
amined the evidence in the case to lie
In the cathedral In Santo Domingo
city. The body Of the discoverer was
brought to the island of his early tri-
umphs from Spain, where he died and
was placed beside that of his son
Diego. 1t was thought that the Span
iards removed the remains Of Chris
TOPPER Columbus when they trans
ferred sovereignty of the island to the
French In 1895. 1t appears from later
examinations Of the burial vaults of
the cathedral, however, that the casket
which was borne in such great state
from Santo Domingo to Havana at the
end Of the Eighteenth century and
from Havana to Spain hundred
years later, contained instead the ashes
Of Diego, the son.
The city of Santo Domingo grew to
be q wonderful place during the early
days Of Spanish dominion, but Column
development. His son, Diego Column
bus, however, engraved the family
name deeper on the city and the cOun-
try Of which 1t was the capital, setting
up there court of such regal splen-
dor that II aroused the envy Of the
Spanish king.
Santo Domingo seemed destined to
become the bustling metropolis of a
Western empire. But 1t became the
victim Of exploitation. After a turbu-
lent history, during which the native
Indians were exterminated and thou
sands Of African slaves were import
ed, the latter, assisted by mulatto free
men, rose, In the last years of the
Eighteenth century, abolished slavery
and drove their oppressors from the
island. Though the land Of the Domin-
lean republic reverted for a while to
Spanish control, and later was con-
quered by the republic of Haiti, with
which 1t shares the island. 1t estab-
lished its independence in 1874 and
has retained its individuality since.
