SEEMINGLY IMMUNE TO PAIN
Australian AborioinaIs Suffer Little
Inconvenience From Even the
Most Severe Injuries.

The sight OF their own blood win
send Australian aborlginals into hys-
terics, writes correspondent in the
Australian Bulletin. but I am con-
WINGED they feel little or no pain from
even the seyerest Injury. On one oc-
casion, when dragging a young girl
from shark that had her foot in its
jaws, she looked up and remarked
casually, Mine tink II dat shark been
tax 1t mine foot" The sight of the
blood upset her for while: but a
few hours later she was playing
euchre with the rest of the camp. The
wonder is that wounded blacks don't
more often bleed to death, for they
take no special means To prevent n.
The most approved method used to be
to cover the wound thickly with fine
mangrove ash, and over that a layer
OF damp clay, which was not removed
for several days. l never saw them
wash wound, their theory being that
the blood heals the wound. In later
years they all learned to 60 to a doc
tor when injured, but thirty or forty
years ago one saw dreadful deformi-
ties resulting from accidents and
fights. On Fraser's island in the sew
entities there was n man whose leg had
been broken in two places below the
knee. Neither fracture had knitted,
and he was most grotesque object
to meet. The doctors wanted 10 mend
him, but he kept out of the way. An
So xt-nC Al
arm had been broken between the
wrist and elbow. She used to pry
the bones one against the other, and
she could give terrible blow with the
loose hand.

Chinese Musical instrument.

The Characteristic musical instru-
ment Of the Chinese is q series OF
bamboo tubes, the longest Of which
measures about nine inches. and of
which the remainder diminish in
length at regular ratio, each being
just twO.thirds the length Of the one
before. This arrangement was devised
by the Chinese-they say, by the En-
peror HuangTi-on the following
principle: Between heaven and earth
there is perfect harmony. Now, the
number three is the emblem OF heaven
and two OF earth. IF then two pipes
or tubes be made i'm the proportion OF
three to two, they will harmonic In
tone as perfectly as earth and heaven.
So the base tube Of the instrument
was made nine inches long and the
second twO-thirds that length, or six
inches. OF course tie third has to be
twO-thirdS the Length nf the second,
or four inches; and 60 on. Tho result
was that the note nf the second tube
was what we coil A. interval 81 fifth
above that Of The .irst that ef the
third fifth above he second, and
so On through the vhoe range.

BEAUTIFUL LAND Of HOLLAND
oliver GoIdsmith's Description OF
Dutch Country as True Today
as When He Wrote II.

"In winter, when their canals are
frozen, every house Is forsaken. and
all people are on the ice; sleds drawn
by horses, and skating, are at that
time the reigning amusements," Oliver
Goldsmith wrote of the Dutch. "They
have boats here that slide on the ice,
and are driven by the winds. When
they spread all their sails they go
more than n mile and a half a minute,
and their motion is so rapid the eye
can scarcely accompany them. Their
ordinary manner of travelling is very
cheap and very convenient; they sail
in covered boats drawn by horses and
in these you are sure to meet people
OF all nations. Here the Dutch slum-
her, the French chatter, and the Eng
lish play cards. Any man who likes
company may have it to his taste For
my part I generally detached myself
from all society, and was wholly TAX
en- up In observing the face OF the
country. Nothing can equal it's beauty
wherever 1 turn my eye, fine houses,
elegant gardens, statues, grottos, Wis
tas, presented themselves; but when
you enter their towns you are charmed
beyond description"

No ROYAL Road 70 KnowIedoe.

knowledge Is possible to all who
really want 1t. Short cuts always re-
duce to ridicule. Force equivalents
always beget rebellion and bloodshed.
There Is no royal road to the WELL
stored mind today any more than there
was In the days of Pharaoh. Not
crowns Of gold and precious gems, but
dladems Of sparkling. penetrating in
telligence proclaim the king. The fit-
ness that is born from within. that
grows with every test. that makes a
man conscious Of his power conditions
life. When his head is clear. and his
life is clean he finds his proper place

things are different in these days The
sons OF rich men are trained to care
for money, trained in their fathers
business so that should their fathers
die they may be able to step In and
continue the work, aided by competent
assistants. Other young men. when
they get through college, begin to
work their way up so that they will
know all the ropes of their fathers

heir to millions has worked side by

and worked quite as hard and for the

Raym0 Girl Tells Her Own
Story of Automobile Ride
Continued from page one)


fence but there arc still several things
regarding the case that the cores
pordent was unable to learn.
Miss Raymon had worked at the
home of Elmer Lawson and had
drawn her paw on Monday evening.
Without notifying her employer
where she was going the girl started
out about s o'clock for Newport,
with the intentions she said. of going
to Stowe, VT, to visit her aunt, Mrs.
Louise Manning. She declared upon
her arrival in the border city she
changed her mind and decided not to
80 to Stowe.
The girl said she left Newport be-
tween s and 8 o'clock, but it must
have been much later than this. When
she had gone as far as the residence
of Joseph Currier on the Coventry
road, she said, a Ford touring car
drov, past her and stoned. There
were two men in the machine and
they invited her to ride. She de
clares she declined the offer and
started to run. Before she could go
far, however, they CAUGHT her, she
SAID, and carried her back to the au-
tomobile where they rlaced her in
the rear seat and held her forcefully,
one of the men pouring some sort OF
liquid over her face that put her to
sleep. She did not remember another
thing, she said, until she woke up and
found Dr. Templeton talkin" to her.
When questioned by the reporter,
Miss Raymo was unable to give any
description of the men except for the
fact that they were of medium build
and were apparently Wung. She
said she thought tho we're bare
beaded During the scuffle the girl
had with the men she lost her black
picture hat, which was trimmed with
pink ribbon and had a link flower on
it. She said the pen coaxed her
rather than threatened her and that
she struggled fiercely with them un-
till she was overpowered.
