^Hd NEW ENGLAND HOUSES
of Early Homootoado RtmL
niaeont of England Appoalo
j to All Visitor*
1 'these early homesteads, framed of
W hewn timber, fastened with oak pins
and handmade nails, and finished
when New England's architecture
still was reminiscent of H^lish j
homes and meeting houses, ale, at!
least in other people's eyes, among
New England's choicest possessions.
Their charm is felt at once by our
summer euests. Thev make the ten
derest human touch in the land
ecapes that draw the tourist to "Vacation
land." For the dignity of their
design, fofr their color and composition
in the view, these irreplacable
monuments of the simpler days deserve
protection. Now, before it is
too late, public sentiment should be
bent upon their keeping. Private persons
that have the means should follow
the example set by the late Captain
Baker of Wellfleet, who saved
from decay or destruction a score of
old houses scattered through that
part of the cape he loved best. And
the societies that have earned praise
for their efforts in behalf of this and
that historic house might well make
a wide campaign in behalf of the seventeenth
and eighteenth century
house as a class.
MISSING MONKEY RECOVERED
Animal Carried Germa of Rare Disease
Which Were of the Utmost Value
to Scientist.
"Woodrow," a monkey that holds
the key to the solution of a rare and
fatal disease, with which solution Dr.
Harry Schmcisser of the pathological
dcDartment of Johns Honkins hns
A I
pital would soon possibly have startled
the medical world, has been missing
from his cage in the Hunterian
laboratory.
: Doctor Schmeisser began experimenting
with this strange disease,
the identity of which he refuses to
disclose, early in the year.
The actual value of the monkey is
a trifle, but to Doctor Schmeisser it
is aimost priceless. He is almost sure
his experiment had been successful,
and that humanity would be benefited
by the knowledge of one more
dangerous disease, if "Woodrow"
could be found.
j The anxiety of the scientist over
the missing subject was turned to jov
when the simian was returned to the
hospital by a man who had read an
advertisement of its loss.
WIDE AWAKE CENSOR.
^JWhile Abdul Hamid was still upon
XllC throne of Turkey the president of
the American Missionary college at
Tarsus sent to Nes York for.a larire
i "? "
consignment of text books. In due
time all except the chemistries came
aafely. At first the president could
not find out what was the matter, but
.finally the commissioner of the port
sent for him.
j "Christian," he said sternly, "it is
not for you to complain. It is for
iyou to give thanks to Allah that you
did not follow your diabolical books
;into the flames. Here is one copy
;that we saved for a witness. Not all
of its deadly ciphers could we read,
ibut this is plain, even to the eye of
|a babe." Pointing to the symbol H.
.20. he read with triumphant air and
.voice, "Ilamid Second is Nothing!"

LONELY BACHELORS' CRY.
From Graham island, olT British
Columbia, bachelors there have
jsent out a Macedonian cry for wives
;and threaten to leave their island
jhome because of tlreir lonely lot.
[From 50 to 100 pre-emptors about
;Masset have requested, that their
>plight be made known. Numbers 1
to 50 in the matrimonial lottery are
said to be without exception young
and good looking.. All of them would
make good husbands and announce
themselves as anxious to hear from
some good women.
THE REASON.
"Why are the mountain resort*
considered aristocratic?"
"Possibly because the mountains
have crests."
P08ITIVE ABOUT THAT.
"Don't you think Miss Pounder
has a great deal of musical ability?"
"I don't know. I've never heard
her play anything but the piano."
/ NOT A BIT.
"She is about engaged to a struggling
young chap."
"He might as well give up quietly
No use to struggle."
The husy housewife stood by the
window, ironing.
A tramp approached the window.
With fire in her eyes she said : "Are
you the tramp who stole two of my
pies from this window yesterday?"
"NO," he replied. "It was a friend
of mine, but he is very sorry that he
stole them?he'6 dead."
Being fleet of fool, the tramp was
enabled to escape the flatiron which
Nr-t seas hurled from the window In hia

RECOGNIZED WORK OF SATAN
Nogro PrMChir Holcf^ Author of All
Evil RaaponslbU for Aboonoo of
Straw at Mooting.
The negroes of the south are an
emotional people, and this charac^
teristic is most plainly seen in their
religious meetings, according to the
New York Times. In such a state
of excitement do they often work at
this time that it has a hypnotic effect
on the nerves, and many fall
into a trance. On awakening they
tell wonderful things about trips to
the other world and of the sights
they saw in spirit land.
As many fall unconscious on the
hard floor, it was the custom among
the negroes at a place called Cray's
I I 111 lllttMlllg HI [Mil Sirww UI1 11IC
floor <leep enough to make a soft
bedding. But one night the caretaker
forgot to spread any. As a
consequence the congregation renminbi
unmoved, in spite of the
preacher's terrible paintings of the
horrors experienced by the tin repentant
sinner, lie roared and ranted,
but none of the sisters or brothers
got up any excitement. They
rocked backward and forward and
filled the air with "Aniens," hut not
a single one went into a trance.
Glancing at the hard, hare floor,
he at once understood the situation.
"Brothers and sisters," he exclaimed,
with teal's in his voice, "Satan
sho'lv am amongst us tonight.
There is forty souls lost here this
evening fur want oh straw."
ANTARCTIC COAL
According to Prof. D. W. Edgeworth
David of the University of
Sydney, Australia, the deposits of
coal discovered hy the Shackleton
and Scott expeditions in the Antarctic
will perhaps prove to he one of
the largest unworked coal fields in
the world. Wild of the Shackleton
expedition discovered seven scams of
coal outcropping in a great cliff of
sandstone and shale. The thickness
of these seains, inclusive of a few
clay bands, was seven feet. Specimens
chopped out by Wild with his
ax b"ve been analyzed at Sydney and
show the coal to lie of workable quality.
Scott's geologists traced this
field for a distance of 050 miles, extending
northward from the head of
Beard more glacier.
