If yon wore living in Ecuador and
Wished to hire a servant you could
hardly get one by himself or herself,
but would be compelled to take up with
a drove of them, probably far outnum
bering your own family. For example,
with a cook you would have to receive
her husband and children, and perhaps
also her father and mother, into your
house to bed and board, and each would
bring along all his or her portable prop

Bow Climate Raa Chanced.
In Switzerland a mean temperature
equal to that of north Africa at the
present time is shown by Its fossil
flora to have prevailed during the mlo
cene or middle tertiary epoch. An
thropoid apes lived in Germany and
France; fig and cinnamon trees flour
ished at Dantzlc; In Greenland, up to
70 degrees of latitude, magnolias
bloomed and vines ripened their fruit,
while in Spitsbergen and even In Grin

degrees of the pole, swamp cypresses

view. When the Barber Was a Wit.
In orlglnul literature the barber Is
a great figure, and Arabian tales are
full of him. In Italy and Spain he was
often the brightest man In town, and
his shop was headquarters for wit
and intrigue. Jasainln became famous
as a poet in southern France and re
cited his verses with razor, scissors,
brush and comical gestures as he dress
ed the hair and beard of fine ladles and
gentlemen in his shop. He had a great
run, made money, hived fame, and
Smiles made a book about him.
pets, such as pigs, chickens, rabbits, ered over standing pools and Irises
dogs and other "live stock." The hus
band may have some trade which he
follows during the day, but at meal
times and when night comes he returns '
to the bosom of his family and yours.
It would be considered downright In
humanity to refuse them food and shel
ter, and not a servant in Ecuador
would work for so mean a master or
mistress. The children of your cook
may be utilized for light services, such
as runnlngerrands, weeding the gar
den and tending the baby, but the nu
merous brood Is apt to be "light finger
ed" and certain to be lousy, dirty and
probably diseased. There Is no help
for It, however, because "el coatumbre"
has decreed that for every servant you
hire you must expect at least a dozen
extra mouths to feed.
Nor is this the worst of it Occasion
ally the cook's relatives from another
village come to pay her a visit of a fort
night or two lasting as long as you
will tolerate It men, women and chil
dren, bringing more dogs, pigs, chick
ens, etc., to be -housed and fed. Fortu
nately, they are not accustomed to
"downy beds of ease" or sumptuous
living, but consider themselves In
clover if plentifully supplied with
benns, corn mpal and potato soup, and
will sleep contentedly on the stones of
the patio or the straw of the stable.
The danger Is that some of the stranger
hangers on may not be as honest as
the cook herself is supposed to be, and
cases are known where thieves and
even murderers thus gained admission
to the inside of the ensa with disas
trous results. Philadelphia Record.

"I seem to ache all over."
"Well." said her sweet child. "I'm

"Why would you feel more sorry for
your father, love?"

The Great Porcelain Tower.
In 1430 A. D., after nineteen years of
ceaseless labor and an expenditure of
about 800,000, the Chinese govern

tower at Nankin, which stood for near

1856, the luost marvelous building ever
erected by human hands. It was of
octagonal form, 260 feet in height, with
nine stories, each having a cornice and
a gallery without.

A Vigorous Policy That Has Borne The
Fruits of Crowning Svccess.
To live content to sell the best piano
at the lowest price ; to deserve the
confidence of the people., to win and
to maintain it These are achieve
ments worthy the most strenuous
striving. Nothing has been left un
done by us in the way of fair, square,
honorable dealing to accomplish this.
We have contented ourselves with
small profits, and endeavored by large
quick, sales to ompensate for the
differenre, which other dealers reap
by exorbitant prices. We have ad
opted every known money saving
method of handling pianos, beside or
iginating several individual and very
important devices such as shipping
our pianos in harness instead of box
ing, etc., etc.
That this policy has succeeded is
evident from the multitude of con
tented enthusiastiac, loyal customers
we have, from northern Washington,
to Southern California, ' from western
Idaho and Wyoming, clear through
the Pacifio Coast and on through the
Paciflo Islands to China, Japan and
the Plihllipines.
We make a personal, individual
matter of pleasing every customer,
whether their purchase is a second
hand organ or a superb, costly, grand
piaon of the world-renowned makes,
the Weber of New York, the Chioker
ingg of Boston, or that great success,
the Kimball of Chicago.
Remember your custom, no matter
how triflibg, is important to us, as
well as to von. To us, because we
want your good will ; to you, because
you ore certain to make a saving nu
matter what your purchase. Easy
payments are one of the special fea
tures of all our dealings. Every in
strument we sell has our written guar
antee. Money back should purchase
prove unsatisfactory, onr invariable
rule.
