HAVE NO NEED OF THOUGHT Al That Troubles Eskimo Is That They Shall Be Sure of Getting Enough to Eat. e ‘Where the physical struggle for lite at its keenest, as it is among the kimos, the years glide by free from he more subtle cares and worries of m | the clvilized man. The Eskimo does pot count the days and keeps no rec- prd of time. All his thoughts are cen- tered on hunting. . Once I asked an Eskimo who seemed be plunged in reflection, “What are ou thinking about?” He laughed at my question, and aid, “Oh, it is only you white men he go in so much for thinking! Up here we only think of our flesh-pits, pand whether we have enough for the Jong dark of the winter. If we have meat enough, then there is no need to think. I have meat and to spare!” I saw that I had insulted him by prediting him with thought. On another occasion I asked an un- psually intelligent Eskimo, Panigpak, who had taken part in Peary’s last North Polar expedition: “Tell me, what did you suppose was the object of all your exertions? What did you think when you saw the land disappear behind you and rou found yourself out on the drifting ce-floes?” “Think?” said Panigpak, astonished. ¥I did not need to think. Peary did that!” Eating becomes the great thing with the Eskimos. I once excused myself, when paying a visit, with the plea that I had already eaten and had had enough. I was laughed at, and the pnswer I received was: “There thou talkest like a dog! gs can be stuffed till they are satis- ed and can eat no more; but people ~—people can always eat!"—Knud mumn, in The People of the Polar MEETING WITH ROBERT BARR journey of a Couple to Cologne Was Materially Enlivened by the Novelist. 1 have a pleasant recollection of Robert Barr, the popular novelist, whose death was recently announced, writes a woman correspondent of the London Chronicle. A relative and I were traveling some years since in Germany, and took the water way to Cologne. Among the numbers of brod- chen devouring and beer drinking pas- pengers on the little steamer I noticed pne, a man with an eager expression, who was distinguished by his abstin- ence and by his absorption in the passing scenery of the Rhine. I got Into conversation by chance with the pbserver, and the whole. route to Cologne was from that moment made p living reality to me by the man's pomment. : The following day we decided to con- tinue our journey, and again we chose the transit steamer, and again we met the man of recollection and observa- tion. I tried, by conversational open- jngs, to discover his identity, but he peeded none, continuing to pour out p flood of history and legend of the Rhine. At length the time of parting came. With a sweep of the arm, which included my companion and my- gelf, he said: “I shall hope to see you when you return from this, the journey of your lives,” and handed me a card, on which was inscribed the name of Robert Barr. “I don’t think we can call together,” I replied, *for while I live in London, my brother's home is in the north, and I peldom catch sight of him on his day ; trips to town.” “Your brother,” replied the editor of the Idler, “then why the deuce do you both have new Juggage?” Ninety Miles Somewhar’. A traveler waiting for a train in Gireenville, S. C., observed a venerable, white bearded gentleman sauntering plong the platform, whose appearance Invited conversation. He approached the dignified, kind faced southerner with the customary salutation of “Good morning, colonel, do you live here?’ *“Yes, sah.” “Engaged in “| growing cotton?” “No, sah, I am a ptatistician.” After harvesting his crop of local statistics, I asked him how far it was to Atlanta. He replied that it was about ninety miles, when & young man who was standing near fnterposed: “Oh, no, ugcle, it is more *an ninety miles.” The old gentleman ptroked his beard meditatively for a moment, shifted his quid and said: “Waal, Jack, it'’s ninety miles some- whar—whar's * that place anyway, Jack?” English “Society.” There are three classes of soclety In England—the aristocrats, who are barbarians; the middle class, who are philistines, and the dregs of society, who are nothing at all. It is a funny thing that the late King Edward, who bad all the vices of the aristocrats, was beloved by the middle class, and that his son, King George, who has; all the virtues of the middle class, is | despised by the aristocrats. He and the queen .are always spoken of as. George and the Dragon. His Chops. “Here, walter, I ordered two lamb chops and can’t find but one.” “Let me see, sir. Quite true. Ah, I remember now. I passed the open door an’ th’ drawft must have blowed it away, sir.” “Bring me another waiter, and this |} time don’t forget the windshield and the safety net"—Cleveland Platn || Dealer.
