These little tig ures retirement the funny men of that time, and it Is curious to note the re semblance to the oddltlea of Charlie Chaplin. One associates flowing robes and stately walk with the (Jrcek actors, but those players are shown wear ing short trousers and with an ob vious caricature of a stately gait. Nothing was sacred from these come dians; even the greatest men of the day were subjects for thtlr wit. which they carried to extremes. A g?n?d ex ample of this Is a statue of one of the funny men aa Hercules, who was uni versally admired and venerated In an cient Greece. He Is shown wearing his Icopnrd skin lightly over one shoulder, with his finger !n his mouth, looking coquettlshly round him. The costumes of -these little flgfires must hove been brilliant; there are still faint traces of pink and yellow on the terra-cotta of which the statues were made. FOOD SUPPLIES IN COMMON No Efkimo Allowed to Go Hungry While His More Fortunate Broth ere Have Plenty. The arctic explorer* Dr. Donald B. MacMIMan. who returned recently after four years spent In the arctic regions, has many Interesting things j say about the domestic and social customs of the Eskimo. All property Is owned In common, ho tells us. * When you enter a vil lage you are not Invited to come In. It If your right to enter and, If you are 1 ungry, to help yourself to some thing to eat. If you happen to vlslt^ a house where a poor hunter lives, he says, "Nurket-turarge (Nothing to eat)." He does not go hungry, how* ever, 1>ecause his neighbors have some, and he lives on his neighbors. Every thing- Is divided up that way. If all the villagers are good hunters, thSlr supplies last a long tlpie, hut If some are poor hunters, the clever fellow must share with them. An Eskimo does not eat three meals a day and sleep at regular Intervals, lie cm when he Is hungry, and sleeps when he Is sleepy, and he puts It off as lone as he can, so that he will en joy It al! the more. lie will go around for six hours talking about how hungry he Is. and then he will set to work and eat all he can. It Is the same uay with sleeping. He will go with out sleep for 48 hours, and when he cannot keep his eyes open any longer he turns in for a 24-hour snooze.? Youth's Companion. London's Sea Gull Visitors. London's winter visitors, the sea gulls, have arrived particularly early this year. Never since the hard win ter of 1895 first Impelled them high up the river, and Into hitherto un known regions of parks and private gardens, have the birds omitted to make their yearly call to the Serpen tine and Kensington gardens' round pond. On the river, of course, the gulls, single or In flights, have been regular habitues for many years, per haps centuries. Feeding the gulls from the bridges is a favorite occu-1 patlon for many a Londoner, or rath er it used to be, for now the feeding of birds la forbidden, on the ground of waste, by the defense of the realm regulations. The gulls will have to shift for themselves this winter, and Londoners' reputation for hospitality will suffer accordingly In the bird world??Christian Science Monitor.
