Walker in the Chautau- quan. Even the recollection of the discomforts of travel by the mative means cannot blot out the beauty of the landscape, the terraced mountain sides, the persimmon groves, the tea houses, the diminutive gardens, the little patches of ripening grain, and the great toiling throng always cheer- ful and contented in spite of their un- ending tasks. All who have been visitors to China seem irresistibly drawn back to the country. They hear the call of. the east and never cease to look forward to the time when they shall return to it again. Those who have once lived im China: are never satisfied to live anywhere else. Soothing and insinuating, the fa- talism of the Chinese creeps upon them and they, too, learn to accept things as they come. Other land- scapes lose their interest, the oldest ruins of other climes seem cheap and new, while the bustle and haste of oc- cidental life with its harsh customs and abrupt manners bruise their spirit and they long for the peace of Cathay. CUSTOMS OF THE CANNIBALS Tribes of Savages Observe Traditions Among Themselves. “Even among the savages of French Africa, who eat human flesh, there are differences,” said Paul Pucci, a young Italian traveler, at the Ra- leigh. “Some while ago, when ex- ploring that country, I learned a good bit about the ways of the various tribes. In a majority of them can- nibalism is indulged only when the bodies are those of prisoners taken in battle. It is all right to eat persons who belong to hostile clans, but it would be a gross violation of tradition and the custom of the land to feast upon friends or even upon members of the same tribe. This delicacy of sentiment, however, is not universal, and in one tribe in particular, where I noted the absence of any old per- sons, I learned that it was the proper thing to add the aged inhabitants to the local food supply. This con- fined the population to the young and hardy, for at the first signs of decrepi- tude the boiling pot was called into requisition.”—Washington Post. Portrait of Arthur Hallam. Of a recently published portrait of Arthur Hallam, immortalized by Ten- nyson’s “In Memoriam,” a_ writer says: “It dates from the prephoto- graphic days; of course, but it -does not show signs of the flattery so com- mon in portraits of that time. The face that bore those ‘azure orbits heavenly wise,’ those ‘ethereal eyes.’ is pictured as rather gloomy, rather lowering, that: of a somewhat heavy youth. This head was Tennyson’s hostage to heaven throughout the stress of philosophic doubt, and was so half a century later, when the aged poet died in the faith that his boy friend was ‘not dead but alive.’” Odd Recurrence of Digits. “The most remarkable arrangement of numbers that I know of,” said a local business college man who takes a delight in solving curious problems and digging up mathematical oddities, “is the combination of the six figures of 142,857. Multiply this number by 2 and the answer is 285,714, by 3 and SOKSCKHASSKERES OSES SSS SENS ACES BES: ws 2902 by muh Father & Fischer. KN.€F. SACK SUIT John Beckfelt Grand The Pioneer Store.

Many years ago, at the funeral of one of the prominent men of Oxford, Mass., the minister forgot to mention in his prayer the widow, who was the second wife of the deceased. His brother, noticing the fact, sent his lit- tle daughter, after the service, to re- mind the aged clergyman of his omis- sion. The minister apologized to the widow, saying: “I trust the Lord will be with you in this great trial, Mrs. B” “I have no reason to doubt him, for he has been with me twice before,” she replied.
