Some interesting and amusing in- j formation concerning the aboriginal inhabitants of Greenland is contained in an article, ''Wireless With the Eskimos/' by Douglas It. P. Coats in the Wireless World. The author kept a diary of his experience while on a voyage to Baffin Hand and Hudson bay on board the Nascopie, a aealer and ice breaker engaged in carrying- supplies to various Hudson bay rtations in the far north: "The Eskimo at home was rather itrtptise. I was taken to* wooden htit,"which belched forth the Eskiwi/*' rra nnmpd thp dnnr IUV DKVUCU uo T?v V|/VUVM VMV There were four or five inhabiting the hut, and they lived in a state of semi-cleanliness perhaps superior to many of our brethren in civilized slum land. "They all assumed the happy Eskimo smile as we entered i teir dwelling and arose politely to t.ieir feet. Snowshoe9 and various sealskin garments hung upon the walls, while from the shadow in one corner protruded the horn of a phonograph. "It seemed so utterly incongruous, this possession of an up to date marvel by a family who ate raw 6eal and whose children delighted, most likely, in nothing better than chewing a piece of walrus hide, that I wanted to laugh. "I had not heard then of the passionate love which the Eskimo has for music. In some regions where missionary influence is strong he has his own brass band and produces horrible noises in the process of mastering the trombone or euphoni i * !_ nm?just iiKe ourueivcB. "The smile of the Eskimo is a continuous one. When he is hurt he smiles; when his kayak upsets and precipitates him into icy water he smiles; when he is friendly he 6miles again, and when he is not friendly I am willing to wager that he smiles too. It palls upon one who is not accustomed to it, and I was not sorry when we bade the family goodby and went out iDto the fresh air/' He Mapped Japan. The first man to make an accurate map of the Japanese empire was a native named Ino Chuke, born in 1747. His early trade was that of a brewer, which he followed until 1800, amassing a fortune. He then tsked permission to make a map of the island empire at his x own expense, ana, nis request ueuig granted, the task occupied his best Yforts tor eighteen years. He had thirteen assistants, and the results were incorporated in fourteen volumes. All instruments used were of Chuke's own design and construction.?East and West News. SH? Wat a 8kaptk. In pioneer days a settler near the i present town of Albany, Mo., bought for his wife the first cook stove ever seen in that part of the state. It was an object of great curiosity, and the woman's next door neigh-! bor, who lived ten miles awav, came to see how it would work. Without comment she saw the dinner cooked. She ate the meal with judgment held in reserve and then remarked, with a shake of the head: J "Well, Sarah, it cooks all right, and the victuals taste good, but I don't believe it kill ever be a success."?Exc hange. . _ Paid Fop the Opinion. Shortly after Chief justice Purley of the court of appeals of New Hampshire had retired from the bench and resumed the practice of his profession a man called on him to get his opinion in a certain matter. After stating his case clearly he said: "Well, judge, what do you think of my case I"" I The judge promptly replied, "I; think you are a scoundrel." "How much do I owe you for that; opinion ?" inquired the client. "Ten dollars," demanded the J judge. The fee was promptly paid. Sartorial. "That man," said the social lion, [ "is the best dressed man in town, j He wear9 t he linest cuts 01 tne oest good6, regardless of expense. He is a man to be envied/' "I know," said the other fellow, witlj a deep hollow sigh; "I know! Heaven knows I know it!" "Why the emotion f* "Because," said the sighing one, "I'm his tailor."?Richmond TimesDispatch. Sprue* Gum. The test of a good chew of spruce gum is first in the taste, then in the color. If there is no trace of turpentine in the taste?not more than an agreeable bitterness as the lump is first crushed in the mouth?then it is good gum. If, after a few minntes' chewing, the cud shows a pinkish lavender shade, then it is per-, feet gum. 1 I Facts About He So It is the largest in t It keeps its money i It is the leading So surance company.
