NOT TROUBLED BY JEALOUSY
Social and Domestic Customs Among
the EskImos Are Simple and Eas-
lily Arranged.

An American missionary is the au-
thorlty for the following description
of social and domestic customs that
prevail in a certain part of the arctic
regions: If woman is chlldless, she
often asks her husband to select an
other wife, so that the home may be
blessed with children. She has no
jealousy toward her rival, for her hus-
band generally treats both with equal
respect The system Of polygamy
works both ways, for some Esklmos
adhere to the single standard. In II
tribe where there are more men than
women, woman may often be al
lowed a second husband, provided she
has the approval Of her first husband,
and her love for some unmarried man
does not necessarily lessen her re-
gard for her husband, who may be old
A younger man may prove real as
set to the family. Even II 1t is case
Of simple infatuation, no deception is
practlced. The Eskimo woman reveals
her feelings to her husband, who, IL
the lover is worthy, rarely refuses his
consent for his wife to go away with
this rival for certain length of time.
II the man happens to have wife Of
his own, the abandoned husband will
often propose to his wife that she ar
range matters with the wife Of her
lover, so there will be a mutual ex-
change of spouses for a time.

LIKE EACH OTHERS COMPANY


In Nevada are found curious min
eral specimens known as "sociuble
stones" No better name could be
given them, since when few are dis
trlbuted over level floor two or three
feet apart they will begin to move
toward one another to a common cen
ter with an alacrlty that Is ludlcrous.
Campers first noticed these stones.
They had used wrapping paper for a
tablecloth and weighted the corners
with some Of the stones spread over
the level top Of n boulder. A few mo-
ments later one of the men noticed
that the paper was tapping in the
breeze and that the four or five stones
were huddled In group in the middle
of the paper like Il nest full Of eggs.
Ho thought the wind was responsible,
Strengthened them and added more
stones.
The next time he looked around the
stones were back In the heap again.
Once more he replaced the stones and
sat down to watch them. They began
to roll and hitch along toward one an
other again until they were In Il pile.

velop his memory, He has no theories

Terry is n roly-poly little colored
man who for 10 years has been the

ward man since 1900 knows Terry. The
remarkable thing is that Terry knows
every one of them. More than 10000
men have come and gone in Terry's
time. Terry remembers them all.
His extraordinary faculty for re-
Numbering names and places caused
his being installed In the position Of

Harvard men, but on Harvard history
generally. When members of the fac

When Demetrn Vakn, author of
"Haremllk" and "In the Shadow Of
Islam," first came to America she was
governess for year to the two little
grandsons of j. Fenimore Cooper.
The children had been brought up
with the utmost reverence for their
famous grandfather, and had uncon-
sclously imbibed the belief that all the
worlds best literature was the Off
spring Of his pen.
Something was said In the elder
boys hearing one day about one OF the
books Of the Bible, with some refer
ence to its authorship, and the boy
looked up at his g0yerness with II
startled face.
"Who wrote the Blble?" he demand
ed, as one whose first faith has been
shaken.
Demetra Yaka explained as best as
she could about the various books, and
the boy sighed stlll bit incredulous.
II Always thought" he said slowly,
that grandfather wrote It."

XleIous Fur.BearIna Animals.

SO marked is the tendency Of many
fur-bearlng animals to wholesale de-
struction OF life that the work Of the
trappers who catch them and kill them
for their pelts doubtless saves a far
greater number Of animals than II
Stays. One marten is likely to kill
hundreds Of harmless creatures in
single year.
II a multitude of birds and small
beasts of the forests and the fields
could have their will they would UNI
questionably urge the trappers to
greater exertlons. They would wish
the present demand for furs stlmulat-
ed to even more imperative eagerness
to wear the skins Of ferocious little
killers. And big ones, too, for leopards
and clvet cats have their place In the
fur trade.-Exchange

gard. Suse had big eyes that usually
appeared gray, but at times seemed
shaded with deep blue. She was
neither slender, short, tall nor chunky.
Her hair was light brown, and while
1t could not be called luxurlant, there
was enough Of 1t, without paid-for adj
ditions, to be done up in a business
like, nevertheless attractive, couture.
Il need a sewing machine" Suse
said and David stopped staring and
suddenly remembered what she was
there for.
Once out of his daze, he tried to
cover the fact that he had been I'm
one by rapid monologue, which was
rather inane, but served to make up
for the time he had consumed in star
ing at Suse.
Suse selected n machine and paid
for II, requesting that it be sent to
the hospital, and after she left David
drifted into waking dream. Suse
certainly got bargain when she
bought that machine, for young
mans heart was thrown in without
extra charge.
The apparent hOpelessness of his
dream brought David out OF It.
"Tm conner" he half groaned.
But what's the use? don't know
her and there's no chance of getting
acquainted unless get sick, and then
the store would go to ruin, and who
wants to marry bankrupt man? Be
sides, / might as well admit that |
haven't enough nerve to go after her."
However, as has been said, David
was an ingenious young man, and 1t
was not long before his brain got to
work on scheme which had for its
object the forming Of Suse Hopewell's
acquaintance, and, some distance In
the future, the marrying Of her.
Two sewing machines were to be
delivered on the same trip, and
short time before the driver Of the
filvver called for them David might
have been seen busy with n screw
driver about the mechanism Of the one
ordered by the superintendent Of
Belleview hospital. He might have
been seen thus engaged, but he took
pains to make sure that he was not.
He watched the machines leave on
the truck and with queer glitter in
his eyes began Strengthening up the
photograph record racks.
There were no Developments that
day, but the next afternoon David re.
ceiyed call from Bellevlew hospital.
"rhe new machine bought Of you
doesn't work." said sweetIy familiar
voice on the wire. II need II right
now, so please send some one In hur-
ry to fix It."
Some one went In a hurry. DavlG
sent himself.

The Trend Of the Times.

President Kroeze Of jamestown col
lege was talking about the trend Of
the times.
"a minister" he said, "had n forci-
bic reminder Of the trend OF the times
the other day. Ills brothcr-ln-law, II
lawyer whom he'd always rather
looked up to, hailed him and asked
humbly for the loan Of two-dollar
bill. The minister made It 81 and
proceeded on his way. He had not
gone far when an automobile stopped
and his cousin, horny-handed milk
wagon driver, whom he'd always
looked down on as poor relation and
miserable failure, leaped out and
asked him to get In and have run
out to We Village lime roadhouse,
where n very neat chicken and waffle
luncheon was being served Mt five a

Suse ushered him into the presence
of the obstinate machine, and he pro-
duced screwdriver from his tool bag
to remedy the trouble, of which he
was the cause.
"You won't need that" smiled Suse.
ITS something about the belt that's
wrong"
With surprise David noted that her
statement was true. Something was
wrong with the belt, and the bobbin,
which he intended should have be-
come balky, worked smoothly.
AS he busted himself repairing the
belt, David managed to entice Suse
into conversation, and when he left
he felt that he had made some prog
ress, although he was still mystified.
The mystery was solved when he got
back and learned that man had been
sent out to Joseph Freedman's home
to repair a new machine.
"The delivery man got them mixed"
David decided; but he was just as
well pleased, for the broken belt had
served its purpose as effectively as
the bobbin might have done.
Thus did David Klinger and Suse
Hopewell get acquainted, and, encour-
aged by his progress Of the first day,
David summoned enough courage TO
invite Suse to attend the theater with
him.
Suse seemed to welcome his atten-
lions, and soon he was calling on her
with considerable regularity. Three
months after the purchase Of the sew
ing machine that had served to guide
their destinies, they became engaged.
isn't 1t wonderful" he observed
one night, what little things serve to
bring a man and woman together~
"Yes." she agreed, II once heard
of man who met his fate just be-
cause strong wind blew hat from
a young lady's head, and he ran after
1t for her."
"That case is no stranger than
ours" said David. "Just n little sew
ing machine did the business. Do
you know that fell in love with you
the day you came into my store to buy
the machine2 And do you know that
/ deliberately damaged sewing ma
chine so that might get acquainted
with your"
"You damaged my machlne2" she
inquired, evidently perplexed.
"Well, no, l didn't. damaged an
other one by mlstake-fxed the bob
bin so 1t wouldn't work. AS It hap
pened, my strategy proved unneces-
sary, thanks to the accidental break
ing Of the belt on your machine"
Suse smiled. There was queer,
rather mischlevous twinkle in her
eyes,
yes, 1t was strange" she admitted
81 suppose you figured all was fair in
love. Well, now I'll make n confes
sion Of my own. l fell in love with
you the day stepped into your store"
81 never suspected It," he exclaimed.
81 didn't intend that you should"
she said. "But my heart was humping
so hard when you advanced to wait
on me that l feared you would hear
It.
II also believed that all was fair
in love" she went on after brief
pause. "In fact, | deliberately broke
that belt-so | could have you fix It,"

Peculiar Nile Fish.

Near the African continent sea fish
cries are mainly under direct or indl-
rect European influence, the natives at
taching more Importance to the rivers
and lakes. In the Nile, fishing is car
rled on almost as 1t was In the days OF
the Pharaohs, by lines and dlpnets, the
latter worked from the bank, and
shaped something like a long-handled
shrimp push net, or by cropping In the
mud as the waters recede after the
flood.
A very popular fish that is taken I'm
the latter way Is the bichlr, which is
about 18 inches long, and is covered
with hard, bony scales. In the same
manner the Arabs Of the upper Nile
catch what they call the thunder fish,"
which averages foot In length, and,
like that of the Calabar, is endowed
with n considerable power Of develop
ing electricity. A large kind Of bar
bel named the blnny, also found In the
mud, Is greatly priced by the Nile
jewellers, though quite tasteless to 9TH
err palates.

then faded away by invisible degrees
but at seven, from west to east, a
"sun Of streamers" appeared across
the sky, undulating like the waters Of

Of alarm was excited by this phe-

became dissolved, and flashed away

ALL'S FAIR
By r. RAY BAKER

NS' 1870, by Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate.)
Here's story about a nurse who
didn't marry patient. Graduated
from Sanburn Memorial hospital in
:he big city, with an engraved, berlb-
boned diploma, and an II. N. after her
name, Suse Hopewell accepted po-
sition as superintendent of Belleview
hospital in the small city of Rushing
ton. and there she met David King.
David had never been sick day in
his life, except with the humps and
measles when he was youngster
Nevertheless, when he saw Suse Hope
well, David decided that he needed
nurse, not because Suse was nurse
but because Suse was Suse, and her
being a nurse was just incidental.
David was proprietor of n jewelry-
phonograph-sewing machine camera
store, and he first saw Suse when she
entered the place on business. The
business was the purchase of a sew
ing machine badly needed at the hos
pital.
Now David was very ingenious
young man, albeit somewhat reserved
and backward when 1t came to the
business Of wooing. The moment he
saw Suse step into the store the lit
tie engine that operated on his left
side began to work queerly. AS he
walked toward the prospective GUS
toner he was afraid Its humping
would brighten her. However, she
seemed quite composed and he came
to the conclusion that perhaps she
had not noticed the unusual sound.
In stories all nurses are pretty, and
this one is no exception in that re-
