DESPISE THE "HIGHER LIFE^ 8outh Sea Natives Satisfied and Joyous Among the Primitive Surround- ( ings of Their l$ands. Doctor Osier suggested uotifmg new ' ?if he ever said it at all?for down BTnnr.cr tho <Cr>??h Son i?inn<l4 the old are buried alive when they pass the v period of usefulness. t ' Martin Johnson showed motion pichires of natives dancing on the newly made graves of the victims of this South Pacific "efficiency" when lie and Mrs. Johnson spoke before the | National Geographic society at Wash- 1 ington. Both Mr. and Mrs. Johnson went "gunning" for the pictures among the j ? * ? f n*hi/>h ' -\ numerous unexpioreu mumus | dot the South Pacific, an area that covers a tenth of the globe's surface, j and contains 1*0,000.000 inhabitants, i Of these at least 2.000,000, Mr. John- j son estimated, still are savage enough j \ "to believe the earth is flat, and they 1 never heard of German 'kultur' or * have been annoyed by book agents." Native dances,, which seemed amazingly like the steps of a Broadway chorus, were danced by maidens at-' tired in nose sticks, huge earrings and necklaces, which seemed to comprise the complete attire dictated by the spring fashions of the Solomon is- j ? L. . 1~ lends. The "open worK ears, which had been distended by disks that look like ear drums, often hung down to the shoulders. In Malaita they are wearing strings of human teeth, and 1 nothing else, this season. Mrs. Johnson told of the distinctive variety of "pidgin" English spoken . by the shore natives of various is- ! lands. There are as many as 400 different tongues spoken by the various islanders, Mr. Johnson stated. Mrs. Johnson usuallv made friends with the natives, among whom, she naively stated, there probably was little more. ' danger than among the white lights of Broadway. But this popularity occasionally had its disadvantages. The pictures showed the four coalblack wives of one native chief, who courteously offered to trade them all for the explorer's wife. Cannibalism still exists in many of ielon/lo arwl Af'r .Tnhnsnn showed (.IICOV/ lOIUUVtOy U<4U V vaa>?w? ? one picture of natives bearing a huge bowl to the grove where they observed their ceremonials-in connection with their human roasts. Amid a j background of some of the most beautiful scenery to be found in the world, the speaker said, exist peoples of almost animal-like savagery and ferocity, to whom torture and murder seem X M me iavome ikisuhics. , . Ant$ on Peonies. ' For a number of years mnny persons in various parts of the country have \ complained of ants destroying the buds on the peonies. To rid peonies of these ants, cut a circular piece of heavy paper or heavy cardboard, about two feet in diameter, and put a hole in the center just large enough \o allow the stem or main stalks of the peony to pass through, and then slit frog) the center to one edge, to enaDie you .10 piace me tucular rim of paper round the plant.

In some localities similar trouble has been experienced with ants on dahlias, and the same remedy may be v successfully used. If a very thick solution of arsenate of lead is used with plently of molasses, it will do the same work as the arsenic. i i Crossed Arctic to Help Red Cross. Many strange things happen in the course of. Red Cross activities, and | not a few occur in that most versa-j ti?e territory, Alaska. The office of i thp Northwest division of the Red ! Cross was mildly surprised recently ! when Mrs. Sophia Redmond of Nolan, ' Alaska, walked in and turned over $206 as the proceeds from the auctioning of a sweater she had knit for the Red Cross. | I This statement itself is only of pnss-' * ing interest perhaps, but t?ke your | map of Alaska and you will locate 1 Nolan well within the arctic circle, be- i tween the sixty-seventh and sixty-! eighth parallels. Mrs. Redmond, who , > is the only white woman at Nolan, left j there August 10, mulling to Bettles, 70 miles away. From there she went to Nulato by river boat, a journey of almost 500 miles. There she boarded j A- a Yukon river steamer to connect with ' the ocean steamship for Seattle. i i Cuba's Neglected Resources. Though an agricultural state, there are important branches of agriculture that are all but wanting in Cuba. Thus cereals are not raised on a large scale, the hay crop is unimportant and large quantities of flour, potatoes, * meats, beans, canned goods, apples and j other agricultural products are Ira- j ported. Though many cattle are raised j A on the Island, the dairy industry is as yet undeveloped, and much milk, butter and elieese are brought from | the United States and other countries, j The rural population largely engaged i on the great sugar plantations is es- j sentially different from an agricultural I state of the United States. Right on the Job. "Uncle Sam is no bully, but he can take care of himself." "Ehi" they chucked rocks at his ; , plug hat th'-y soon f on rid him i;: a trench helmet."?Kansas City Journal. A near bad accident at the hearl of Xance street where it enters Boundary was narrowly missed the; other day. Two cars came together but no very great damage was done, thanks to a kind nrovidence. That accident was caused mainly by one car keeping to the right and tbe other to the left and of course that put the two cars going in opposite directions on the same side of the street. The State law says you mus: drive to the right. But laws are very scraps of paper if not enforced. j FOR BILIOUSNESS AM) INDI GESTION TAKE A CALOTABJ i The >ew Nausealess Calomel Thai is Purified and Refined From All Sick-! ening and Dangerous Effects.
