Ing in a swarthy face, his lean, long
enduring body adorned with a black
velvet jacket, Henry Van Dyke writes
In Scribner's.
This garment is no disguise, but a
symbol. 1t is short, so as not to Inn
pede him with e~ntangling tails. 1t is
unconventional, as a protest against
the tyranny of fashion. But 1t is of
velvet, mark you. to match a certain
niceness of choice and preference of
beauty-yes. and probably a touch of
bravura in all its wearer's vagaries.
It's like the silver spurs, broad SOM
brero and gay handkerchief of the
thoroughbred cowboy-not an element
Of the dandiacai, but a tribute to ro-
nance. Strange that the most genu-
Inc of men usually have a bit of this
in their composition your only incur
able poseur being the fellow who af-
fects never to pose and betrays him
self by his attitude of seorn.
OF course Stevenson did not always
wear this symbolic garment. In feet

In one of the old streets off the Strand,
the London Times reports. This Is the
burning of a light In the hall of II Of
the houses all through the night when
everybody is abed. This light has a
history, and marks an ancient privilege
and bygone right-of-way. The light Is
maintained by the Westminster council
and not by the tenants Of the house.
The lamp-lighter enters at twilight and
kindles the light, and on his round In
the early morning. he re-enters with e
latchkey and extinguishes 1t. The light

LIVE IN FEAR OF SPIRITS
Copper EskImos Believe Themselves
Constantly Surrounded by Mys.
FERROUS and Hostile Powers.

The Copper Eskimos believe that
many strange and only ~semi-human
races surround their land. The In
dams, they feel, may be human, but
the peoples far from them are alto
gether strange.
Birds and animals, think the Copper
Eskimos, can be offended by scornful
words. and the hunter who mocks the
caribou or seal will be suddenly
stricken down by illness or logged by
constant Ill luck. Not only must the
Eskimo propitiate the shades of his
human dead, but also the spirits of
the animals he kills.
Mysterious and hostile powers, In
visible and ~incalculable, hem them
in, as they believe, on every side,
SO that they never know from day
to day whether a fatal Illness or mis-
fortune will not strike them or their
families-from no apparent cause, and
for no reason, save the Ill will of those
unseen foes.
The main distractions of the Cop
per Eskimos are singing and dane
ing. Practically all their songs are
dancing songs. They have fashions
in clothing. Every man and woman
of fashion should possess two suits
Of everyday working clothes, n for
summer and one for winter, a thick
set Of heavy winter clothing for travel
n visiting, and a lighter set of short
haired summer skins Ornamented with
colored bands and insertions, fringes
and appendages of various kinds, to
wear In the dance house On ceremonial
occasions.
