Tattooed Stilt Walkers
The first travelers who visited the
-Marquesas islands tin the Pacific
(cean) found them peopled with a
magnificent race of at says the
Washington Star Their clothes last-
ed until death for their costume was
the skin with which their Creator cov-
ered their bodies These islanders
beautifully decorated themselves with
latooing from the crowns of their
beads to the tips of their toes As
they are an enormous race this was
no small undertaking Their chiefs
were chosen on account of their size
and several of them have measured
six fret ten inches in he! lit
These people are the greatest stilt
walkers in the world This SeetilS
strange for they are big enough with-
'out the all of stilts On stilts they
:execute performances which would
drive the stilt-walking CIONVI1 at the
New York hippodrome out of his mind
with envy On them they run races
jump dance and a great mark of
-politeness in the islands is for one
Wit-walking savage If) trip another

Two Stories of Honesty
-Honesty is the hest policy" mill( r
every circumstance
A lad was proceeding to an uncle's
to ask aid for a s:clt sister anti her
children when he found a wallet cOil-
aining $70 The uncle refused to
help them and the family suffered
with want The boy informed his
mother that he had found the money
but expressed his doubt whether they
had a right to use it The mother
confirmed his doubts aii t! none of the
money was used The wallet was ad-
vertised and the owner found Ile
was a man of wealth and on the af-
Iliction and honesty of the family be
in made known to him he presented
the $50 to the sick molter and took
the boy into his service who in time
became one of the wealthiest mer-
chants in the place
An Indian visiting his xvhite neigh-
bors asked for a little tobacco to
smoke and one of them having some
loose in his pocket gave him a hand-
ful The (lay following the Indian
'came back inquiring for the donor
saying he had found a quarter of a
dollar among the tobacco Being told
that as it was given him he might as
well keep it he answered pointing
to his breast: "I got a good man and
-a bad man here and the good man
say' It is not mine I must return it
to the owner the bakt man say Why enemy threaten attack In a state of

Where "Yankee" Comes From
"Yankee" is both a Dutch verb and
a Dutch noun The verb means to
growl and fight and the 1101111 means
a crying mongrel These terms the
Colonial Dutch applied to the Puritans
of Connecticut whom they despised
as much as the Now Englanders de-
spised therm
When the colonials marched out
with the British regulars to aid in the
war upon the French they wore
clothes of a very motley ass( rtment
arms of ancient date and were a pain-
ful contrast to the regulars in the lack
of training although in the matter of
courage they stood shoulder to shoul-
der with the bravest It was at that
time that a Dr Shackburg is suprosed
to have composed our famous "Yan-
kee Doodle" which was a satire on
these badly clothed but courageous
troops The tune of "Yankee Doodle"
is claimed by the Dutch and it is said
to be ono of their (lancing airs At
a recent dance in a Dutch village
some one played "Yankee Doodle"
and immediately the young men and
women began dancing one of their
dances It is probable that the old
Dutch settlers played this air when
they were making merry in the long
winter evenings and the wit who
composed the VerSeS of "Yankee Doo-
dle" had h en rd the air and considered
it an appropriate accompanimtnt to
his sarcastic verses on the colonials
whom the Dutch disliked as much
as he

young Hut when we are older we
like to do things in a businesslike
way! Well here is a "safe” that a
boy can make and when it is com-
pleted it will not only look 1ik any
"grown-up" wife but will be commo-
dious enough to hold other posses-
sions besides money that a boy may
wish to keep "safe"
It must be made of wood of course
but we will make it so thick and so
strong that 1t will be pretty nearly
burglar-proof
One of the illustiations shows how
the safe is put together The top
side and bottom It will be seen are
composed of three pieces of board
each These hoards may be three-
quarters of an inch thick The out-
side pieces are put together like an
ordinary box which is then lined with
the next layer three-quarters of an

Ants Who Raise Grain
In One of the South American coun
tries there are ants who beside carry-
ing out in their minute W ay their
wonderful social and coin M ere ial
economy help the flatly es by raising
grain for I hem Of course they do
not do it intentionally for their ob-
ject is to provide food for themselves
They talw tile ripe seeds which fall
on the ground and burrowing under
the earth bury these seeds in the dirt
for food for the rainy season
'When the rains have passed the seeds
which the ants have not eaten burst
their shells and eventually a good
crop of wild grain will reward some
lazy native who is too idle to provide
food for himself When you see a
little ant hurrying along with its tiny
burden be careful not to tread upon
it for it is such a wonderful little
creature that you never can tell in
what unexpected ays it may be
serving you

A pretty watchst and may be made
by covering one side of two pieces of
cardboard five inches long and three
inchcs wide With the material intend-
ed for lining On another piece of
material paint some design and then
apply this to one side of a similar-
sized piece of board Cover a fourth
board of the same size and shape
With material to correspond to that
containing the ornamentation Then
glue firmly together the uncovered
sides of each of these pairs so that
you may have two boards having each
side of a contrasting or harmonizing
color Tk'ek these firmly together at
the top so that the lining sides shall

ST PETERSBURG: Since the sit
ting of the council of the empire
March 19 at which Premier Witt made an enigmatical statement which

M tiorernykin former minister of thE
interior or General Count Ignatieff
member of the reactionary party who
will succeed him The combination
of the reactionaries IS understood tG
be M Goremykin for premier and M

GUTHRIE: "A half million dollar

Is the manner in which Secretary
Fred J Wenner of the school land
leasing board designates the attempt
being made to fasten permanently onto
the statehood bill the amendment to
allow mineral entries to be filed on
school lands allowing the territory
to take other lands in lieu thereof
Mr Wenner says that lands that can
be secured "in 114tt thereof" are not
worth over a dollar per acre whereas
the lands taken away by this amend-
ment are worth a half million dollars
at least That the Standard Oil com-
pany is back of the amendment Is the
