’HITTLING lCHIPS.

Chubby hands so brown and small,
Wield the blade and scantling.
Chips like driftlets fly and fall.
Wasteful litter one and all,
In flakes about the bantlin g.

Seventy springs their seeds have sown,
Still with knife and shingle,
The child, a white haired grandsire grown,
His life a dream, his memory flown,
Sits whittling by the ingle.

Yet the past held busy years,

Works of wondrous glitter,
But many a loss brought burning tears
And many a gain regretful fears.

At best a useless litter.

And so methought the hopes and schemes
Of many a worldly witling,
When all is told, are idle dreams
That lure men on with golden beams,
Mere chips of mortal whittling.
—~Washington Post.

Married in Haste.

One of the hastiest marriages on record
took place in staid Philadelphia. A lady
and gentleman who had been acquainted
but one week, and who moved in excellent
society, were walking upon the street, the
lady showing the lions of the city to the
gentleman, who was a stranger. In the
course of their ramble they were stopped
for an instant by a wedding party, who
Were alighting from their carriages at _-a
church door. The lady proposed to go in
and see the affair through. The gentle—
man consented, and together they stood
until the ceremony was over. At this in-
stant the gentleman, taking the lady’s
hand in his, led her unresistingly to the
altar without a single word being spoken
and presented her before the astonished
minister with a request that they should
be made one. In ten minutes the knot
Was tied, and there is no reason .to believe
that either has, in the ten years they have
been joined, seen cause to regret the sud-
denness of the idea—Montreal Star.

Birds That Hide Behind Trains.

An engine driver on one of the Scotch
lines reports that he has noticed that cer-
tain hawks of the merlin or “stone falcon”
species make use of the passingof the trains
for predatory purposes. They fly close be-
hind the train, near the ground, partly
hidden by the smoke, but carefully watch-
ing for the small birds, which, frightened
by the train as it rushes roaring past, fly
up in bewildered shoals. The merlinsf ‘Ien,
while the little birds are thinking more of
the train than of lurking foes, swoop on
them from the ambush of the smoke and
strike them down with case. If they miss
they return to the wake of the carriage and
resume their flight and their hunt. They
can, it seems, easily keep pace with an ex-
press train and outstrip it when they please.
~New York Press.

“'omcn Are Slow Paying Bills.
There is a lack of skilled dressmakers in
this country and a loose system of paying
tradespeople, except possibly in the case of
large shops who collect their bills monthly.
Fashionable dressmakers and milliners
complain that women of great wealth are
often so slow in paying their, sea-
son’s bills that they lose the discount
allowed them at all wholesale houses for
payment within a certain number of
months. When the husband is not over
gindulgent, and the wife has no purse of her
a, own, many months may elapse before the
workwonian obtains her earnings. It is
not strange that such dilatory customers
are charged more than those who make
)rompt payments the rule—New York

" “Hus Eliza. Scidnim'“

Miss Eliza Scidmore, who writes over the
nom de plume of Ruhainah, is an extreme—
ly clever woman who has had exceptional
advantages for obtaining certain classes of
information for her literary work, and who
has taken full advantage of all of them.
Her brother is in the consular service. He
is one of the eight consular clerks who hold
office under the government for life or dur-
ing good behavior. Mr. Scidmore is sta-
tioned at Kanagawa, Japan. Through his
influence his sister has obtained from the
state department letters which have been
of incalculable advantage to her in her
travels abroad. During the Washington
season she writes letters from the capital.

IIIen Who “’rote Good and Bad Plays.

Bartley Campbell’s early pieces were all
failures. And yet Campbell lived to write
“My Partner,” and make fortunes for him-
self and everybody concerned in its produc—
tion. De Mills, who was concerned in the
writing of “The Wife” and “Charity Ball,”
which have been produced at the Lyceum
theatre, came forward first as a playwright

‘ with a piece entitled “Delmar’s Daugh-
ters.” It was done at the Madison Square
theatre, and the failure it made was abso-
lutely complete at every p0int.——New York
\Vorld.

Didn’t Want to Be Eaten.
A Sussex D‘cntlenxan named Jack Fuller
‘ ordered his executors to bury him in
a pyramidal mausoleum in Brightling
churchyard. His reason for desiring to be
inclosed in stone above ground was his un-
willingness to be eaten by his relatives—a
process he considered inevitable if buried
in the ordinary way. “The worms,” he
declared, “would eat me, the ducks would
eat the worms, and my relatives would eat
the ducks.’ ’—~Cassell’s.

 

An employe in the office of the architect-
of the Capitol, \Vushington, has invented
an electric musical machine. The key-
board is similar ’to that of an ordinary
typewriter, and its keys are connected
electrically with a number of electric bells
arranged beneath the table. Pressure on
each key closes the circuit of an electric
bell. and when the keys are operated by an
expert any tune may be played on the ma-
chine.

An old duck- hunter of Savannah says
that a flight of. ducks coming south on one
day, if followed by other flights in the
same direction days or weeks afterward,
will not vary to exceed twenty—five feet
from the path of the ducks which have pre-
ceded them, and they will alight in almost
the exact spot where preceding flights have
settled.

It has been observed that the skin of

A STRANGE HUMAN RACE

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PEOPLE
ON THE YEZO ISLAND.

The Ainos and the Pit Dwellers “7110
Preceded Them—Curious Habits of the
Orientals—Results of Professor Hitch-

cock's Explorations.

Standing in the midst of a collection in
a big glass case recently set up in the Na-
tional museum at Washington is the figure
of a man a little below the average height
of the Caucasian. This is a typical Aino,
modeled by the clever artists attached to
the museum; flesh tints, eyes, beard, hair
and all reproduced exactly as they appear
in life and clad in garments woven by
Ainos. Around him are household imple-
ments, shuttles for weaving, fishing spears
and tackle, bows and arrows and the other
rude furnishings that represent all that the
arts of this primitive pc< :xle have produced
to raise them above absolute savagery. An
interesting part of the collection is-an Aino
house reproduced in miniature, ll‘:ith its
storehouse and other appurtenances.

The Aino in the center of the case has a
great shock of gray hair, a huge gray beard
and shaggy eyebrows. llis complexion is
of a light coppery hue, his cheek bones
high and his nose straight, but broad at
the base. On his head is a triangular
shaped head dress. A long gown girdled
at the waist and ornamented with designs
embroidered in white on a dark blue base
reaches from his shoulders below his knees.
His legs down .to his ankles are protected
by leggings and his feet are bare. Over one
shoulder is slung by a light strap a haver-
sack woven of rushes. In his belt or girdle
at his left side is supported a wooden quiver
filled with arrows, and behind in his girdle
is thrust a carved stick, to which is at-
tached the little basket or pouch in which
the Aino carries his supply of smoking to-
bacco.

LIFE OF THE INHABITANT. .

The modern explorer carries a camera
strapped over his shoulder or secured upon
his saddle. \Vhen he gets home ifany one
questions his statements he can produce
the irrefutable evidence of a photographic
record. Professor Romyn Hitchcock, of
the National museum. when he traveled
recently in the island or Yezo, Japan, and
the islands known as the Kuriles, stretch-
ing in a long chain northward from Yezo
almost to Kamchatka, collected not only
complete series of specimens illustrative
of the life of the inhabitants of these al—
most unknown lands, but also secured a
large number of photographs that in them-
selves make a graphic and interesting rec—
ord of his journey. The case in which the
model of the Aino stands is filled with the
specimens collected by Professor Hitch—
cock. The Aino figure was modeled on
photographs and measurements taken by
him from these far away shores.

It has been only recently that anything
has been known of any part of Yezo, ex—
cept certain districts lying on the coast.
The first extensive exploration of the isl-
and was made by an American, '1‘. TV.
Mr. Blaklgton, how—
ever, confined his observations chiefly to
the birds and plants and contributed vastly
to the knowledge of the botany and or-
nithology of the ‘cgion. No one explored
the country to any extent with a view to
studying its human inhabitants until Mr.
Hitchcock made his journey in 1858. Such
information as had been printed .(-nr.ce.r-.~. *
ing the hints was ,1 1 red l>:\' I‘i'l‘fi‘ek‘l‘b‘
who visited the coast settlements in the
vicinity of Hake: ate and Ncmoro. In
some of those settlements the native cus-
toms of the Ainos have been corrupted by

 

Catarrh, Catarrhal Deafness, Hay Fever
A New Home Treatment.

Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence of living parasites
in the lining membrance of the nose and
custachian tubes. Microscopic research
however, has proved this to be a fact, and
the result of this discovery is that a simple
~remcdy has been formulated where’bv'
catarrh, calarrhal deafness and hay fever
are permanently cured in from one to
three simple applications made at home
by the patient once in two weeks.

N. B.—This treatment is not a snuff or
an ointment; both have been discarded
by reputable physicians as injurious. A
pamphlet explaining this new treatment'is
sent on receipt of three cents in stamps to
pay postage by A. H. Dixon «S7 Son, 337
and 339 West King street, Toronto, Can-
ada—Christian Advocate.

Sufferers from Catarrhal troubles should
carefully read the above. .

Bong Ago.

Allusions to the flight of time often pro-
duce strained relations, even between the
dearest friends. “I always liked those
flowers,” said one lady, admiringly regard-
ing the bonnet worn by another. “They
always remind me of our first meeting, six
years ago. They were as becoming to you
then as they are now.”

A still more caustic mention of a past
event has served to point at once a reproof
and a joke.

At a certain trial in an English court 3.
lawyer, named Ribton, addressed the jury
at great length, repeating himself con-
stantly and never giving the slightest sign
of closing his speech. IVhen he had been
pounding away for several hours the judge
interposed, and said:

“Mr. Ribton. you have told us that be-
fore.’ ’

“Did I, my lord?” said Ribton.
very sorry. I quite forgot it.”

“Don’t apologize, Mr. Ribton.” was the
answer; “I forgive you, for it was avery
long time ago.”——Youth’s Companion.

A Skirt .uancer’s Secrets.

I wear eight skirts every night. On each
one are twenty yards of lace, half a yard in
depth, so that I carry 160 yards of lace
every time I appear in a skirt dance. Then
with the tights and other little pieces of
wearing apparel I carry a heavy weight.

My skirts are never starched or wash 3d.
Just as soon as they become dirty they are
thrown away and new ones are bought.
My lace bill is a large one, as it embraces
many different colors.

I never have them starched, be: Lusc they
hang much easier and a great deal closer
to the legs. If they were starchcd some
people would think I were hoops—Violet

Even among the Japanese who are found 1
at I—lakodatc such ignorance exists as to ‘

the inhabitants of the island that Professor

Hitchcock was assured he would lind no ‘

whither he intended jour

vas almost led by the pesitavc .~.~=s of the ‘

assurances to change his route and cmitcnt
himself with skirting along the coast to
Nemoro. At Nemoro, however. he was en-
couraged to proce xi, and he continued his
travels coastwise to a printer. the northern
side of the island. and then turning inland
made a journey on horseback of 800 miles
through the n ountainous interior of the
island.
Till-J l’l'l‘ DWELLEIIS.

When asked by a reporter about the rc—
sults of his explorations, Mr. Hitchcock
spoke first of evidences he had found relat—
ing to‘the inhabitants of the island proced-
ing the Aino occupation. These evidences
were in the form of pits, generally rectan-
gular in shape and found in groups on the
coast, indicating that the island was once
inhabited by pit dwellers. \Vlicu, in ISIS,
the Japanese govcrnm .ll. coded the big
island of Saghalicn to 7.111s. in it received in
return from Russia a quit claim to the
Kurile Islands. T be few inhabitants of
these islands were collected together and
moved to Shikotan, a small island just off
the coast of Yezo,wherc they could be nearer
the Japanese. These people lived chiefly

 

by fishing and emigrated constantly from _

one island to another. Now, under the
changed conditions in which they live in
Shikotan, they are (lying off rapidly.
Professor Hitchcock when he visited
them found that the remnant of the tribe
still existing numbered only about seventy—
five people, many of whom were enfceblcd
by consumption. Their dress resembled
that of European.~ and indicated the effects
of Russian influence. Their features and
hair are much like those of the Esquimaux.
The special point of interest in them dis-
covered by ProfeSsor Hitchcock was the
character of their dwellings. They build
up walls or mounds of earth, w iich they
thatch over. The floors are a foot or two
below the ground outside. TheSe hovels
when they collapse form, in the course of
time, Iits like those disc vered oh the
coast of Yezo. This fact is taken by Pro—
fessor Hitchcock as evidence that this peo-
ple, now represented by a handful of men,
women and children, less in number than
the inmates of an ordinary tenement house,
once inhabited the great island of Yes: .
The Japanese conduct the business of the
island and are settled in considerable num-
bers at Ilakodatc, 1': emoro and other jun-ts.
where the products Of the Yezo I. .aics
.znd of the few industries of the isi;.;;.i are
shipped. The Ainos dwell, as a rule. on
the coast, as they subsist chiefly by fishing.
In the journey through the interior Pro-
fessor Hitchcock, who had a Japanese
companion, found few inhabitants. At one

place he found a community of Ainos en- .

gaged in mining for sulphur on the side of
an active volcano.

Professor Hitchcock described the Ainos
to the reporter as the dirtiest of men.
They never wash, and their hair and board,
which are of most. luxuriant growth, hang
about their heads in a matted mass. Ow-

ing to their lack of cleanliness it is quite

difficult to make out what their real com-
plexion is.——\'f::shin~ton Star. '

A little child, tired of play, had pillowcd
his head on a railroad track and fallen
asleep. The train was almost upon him
when a passing stranger rushed forward
and saved him from a horrible death. Per-
haps you are asleep on the track, too. You
are. if you are neglecting the hacking
cough, the hectic flush, the loss of appe-
tite, growing weakness and lassitudc, which
have unconsciously crept upon you. Wake
up, or the train will be upon you! Con-
sumption, which thus insidiously‘fastens
its hold upon its victims while they are un-
conscious of its approach, must be taken in
than. if it is to be overcome. Dr. Picrce’s

sands of cases of this most fatal of maladies.

is guaranteed to benefit or cure in every

that pensronersare unjustly or erroneously re-
duced by examining surgeons. A pensioner is
entitled to increase on a disability not set forth in
his original declaration. The pension laws are
more liberal than formerly, and better rating can
be had for many disabilities. I make a special
of neglected and Rejected Claims. and if you wil’
present me With abriet statement of your case
stating by whom it was presented, I will obtain a
rehearing of your case, and, it it has merit. will
procure a favorable settlement. Manv claims

good cases. Soldiers savoring with disabilities
contracted in service, who have not applied for a
pension, should do so as it is their RIGHT.
