GREAT PUNCTILIOUSNESS ABOUT
SALUTATIONS.
Orcctlnna Do pond Upon Hnnk niul
Time of Dny How Papulation Is. Di
vided No Trafllc In 81avc la Car
ried on In Abyatflulu.
"Iudet ndrul" This Is not n curse,
but Abyssinlun for "Good iiiurnltiKl"
Tho words menu literally, "How littve
you spent tho nlglftV" Tho peoplo of
King Menollk nro very punctilious In
their salutations and have a carefully
graded scale of greetings according to
tho person addressed and the time of
day. Thus to an Inferior or to nn Inti
mate friend Instead of "Indet ndru"
they would soy, "Indet adreh" (pro
nounced "lulrccu" cli as in loch).
"Good afternoon!" would ho "Indet
wntu!" or "watch!" meaning, "How
have you spent tho morning?" And
"Good evening!" "Indet mashu," or
"maHheh," I. e., "IIo.w hnvo you spent
the day?"
There Is a similar complete scries of
good-bys for peoplo separating at differ
ent times. Two friends parting In the
evening, say one going home and the
other going to his club (only they
haven't clubs In Abyssinia except
wooden ones, perhaps), would Bay to
each other, "Bndchna ntlar" ("May you
spend tho night well"), which wo might
translate, "Good night; bo good."
The Abyssinian calendar Is a fearful
and wonderful thing. Nearly every
day Is a saint's day and Is known by
Ita proper name and not by Its date.
For Instance, If you nsK an Abyssinian
whether a certain thing happened on
tho 14th of Hndar (tho equivalent of
our Nov. 23) ho will not understand
what you mean; but If you say, "Was It
on Abuut Aragwo (tho name for that
day) that you stole that sheep?" a com
prehending smllo will overspread his
handsome and Intelligent features.
Tho year Is divided Into twelve
months of thirty days each and at the
end of the year, to make up tho 3(55
days, are added Uvo days, called "Quag
me." Each year In succession Is called
Matthews, Markos, Lukos, Johannls.
Matthews, Markos niul Johannls have
each a "Quagme" of live days, but Lu
kos, or lenp year, has a "Quagme" of
six days. Tho Abyssinian year begins
on our Sept 11 and although, dating as
wo do from tho birth of Christ, they nro
nearly eight years behind us In time
Kept 11, 1D00, was In their calendar 1st
Maskaram, 1803. Their method of
reckoning tho hours of tho day Is nlso
peculiar, to our notions. They count
tho dny ns beginning at sunrise and not
at midnight, as wo do. Thus, our 7 n.
in. Is their 1 o'clock dny, nnd our 0 p.
in. their 12 o'clock day; 8 p. in. with us
would bo 2 o'clock night with them and
our 4 a. ui. would be their 10 o'clock
night
Tho whole population consists of two-
tlfths soldiers, two-llfths priests nnd
oue-llfth merchants, at least ns far as
tho Abysslulnns tho dominant race
are concerned. All tho other necessary
work 'of tho community Is performed
by subject races, llko the Gnllas or
Somalia, or domestic slaves mostly
prisoners of war captured In the west
ern negro provinces. All Abyssluluus
except tho very poorest employ slnves
for domestic purposes. Theso nro well
cared for and arc regarded after a time
as members of tho family.'
Thcro Is no trade In slaves in Abys
sinia, as they can only bo procured by
tho king's order, which has to be shown
to the governor of the province, who
thereupon gives his sanction. The
sluves, generally boys or girls tho, for
mer for outdoor and the latter for In
door work nro purchased from their
parents at an average prlco of $10 a
heatl, but tho purchaser may never re
sell them, though ho may if ho likes
glvo them nway. The soldiers lead an
easy life nnd havo no work to do except
when called out to serve on nn expedi
tion. It Is true their pay Is only J8 a
year cash Is scarce In Abyssinia but
during peaco time they nre billeted on
tho Gnllas, a subject race, who are
bound to glvo them all they need. In
addition to this munificent rate of pay,
says the London Express, n paternal
government provides the new recruit
at tho outset of his military career
with a donkey free, nut his rifle the
soldier must provide himself, as he
must also maintain his donkey.
THE POPPY.
Golden Illoasonie that Greeted the
California l'iouccra.
Far out at sea, gleaming sheets of
dazzling gold arrested tho gazo of tho
early explorers of California. lJla.Ing
along tho Pacific coast, embrolderlug
the green foothills of tho suow enpped
Sierra Madres, transforming acres and
acres of treeless plains Into royal cloth
of gold, millions of flowers of silky
texture and color of gold fascinated
tho Spanish discoverers. An eminent
botanist, Eachsholtz, at onco classllled
the plant, and his followers couferred
his name upon this, the only native
American papavcr.
Dream-like lu beauty, fascinating
from sheer loveliness, spreading its
soft undulations over tho land, the
California poppy bloomed abovo the
richest views and arteries of gold the
world has ever known, all unsuspected.
A Circe, with powers to please, dazzle
nnd charm by Its enchantments, while
It allures, lulls and mystifies, this flow
er of sleep seemed to draw by some
occult process from the earth tho
elixir of gold, unfolding Its blossoms or
gold as beacons proclaiming; "Wo nre
blooming above rich mines of gold."
There Is never a mystery about the
poppy. It Is a weird flower. It Is nl
mots sentient, with a life unknown to
human kind. "While glory guard
with solemn tread, the bivouac of thtr
dead," stealthily a sea of goro creeps
over the old battlcllclds. Blood red,
the popplas In waves and billows hold
high carnival abovo the soil that cov
ers tho slain. Lord Macaul'ny says of
tho battlelleld of Nccrwiudon: "The
summer after the battlo the soil, fertil
ized by 20,000 dead, broke forth Into
millions of blood-red popples." The
traveler from St. Cloud to Tlrlemont
who saw that vast Held of rich scarlet
stretching from I.anden to Ncerwlndon
could hardly help fancying that tho
figurative description of tho Hebrew
prophet was literally accomplished,
that "The earth was disclosing her
blood nnd refusing to cover Iter slain."
Haynrd Taylor, In "The Lands of tho
Saracen," says he contemplated, with
feelings he could not describe, "the old
battlefields of Syrln, densely covered
with blood-red popples, blooming In
barbaric splendor, gloating on the goro
of soldiers slain."
However Interesting the poppy mny
bo to men of science nnd to lovers of
the beautiful, It Is yet more so to tho
people of California. This. beautiful,
weird, gold-colored flower of gossamer
texture belongs to California atone.
Nowhere else In tho world has It ever
made Its habitat. There It Is naturally
so profuso that It Is related ns a fact
that, coming on a turn full faco upon
a blooming Held of yellow popples, (Inh
aling lu tho sunshine, horses have been
put to flight, ns from flames of lire.

MEDICAL USES OF TUNNELS.
i '
Mothers in London llelleve the Foul
Air u Metnedy.
Quite a new use has been found for
tho two-penny tube and tho other un
derground railways. In addition lo bo
lug methods of quick locomotion, they
aro also,' la tho opinion of many trust
ing mothers who havo little faith In tho
pharmacopeia, Important sanatoria
warranted to cure ninny of childhood's
maladies. Tunnel air, It seems, Is good
for croup, nlso for whooplug cough and
various other aliments.
Let us hope tho women will not got
tho Idea Into their heads that It Is a
substltuto for vacclnntlon, says the
London Telegraph. A doctor who was
traveling on n railway noticed that n
woman In tho compartment almost
pulled down the window when they
entered a tunnel, mid held outside n
child whom sho was carrying, so that
tho youngster ml'ttht get tho full bene
fit of the foul ntmosphure; nnd when
ho asked the reason of this extraordi
nary performance sho told him that
"tunnel air" had bo2n found to be ,a
complete euro for tho croup. And the
other dny an east end mother wns dis
covered by a guard on tho "lnnor cir
cle," becnuso sho hnd been told by
n herbalist and boucsctter that a sul
phurous atmosphere was good for tho
whooping cough.
Formerly the unfailing specific for
the last-mentioned disorder wns n visit
to n gns works, but owing, doubtless,
to tho ndvauce of science, tho under
ground railway has taken tho place of
tho gaseous system of pathology. Thus
n new and bnncllclnl era opens for
tubes ami tunnels, and their sharehold
ers. Aii'ilent UIIiioIn Hostelry.
Situated four nnd a half miles west
of Dnuvcrs, on tho old Goodcnough
farm, Is an old Inn, or tavern, that fifty
years ago was tho stopping plnco for
travelers between Illoomlngton nnd
Peoria In tho days when tho stage
coach was tho only means of public
travel. It was known as tho "Half
Way House," and Is nbout a mllo and a
half west of Woodruff, toward Lilly.
It Is a large, old-fashioned house, In
qulto good repair, and Is now owned
nnd occupied by Mr. Christ Oesch, for
merly of Roberts, Ford County. Horses
were changed here, and travelers wero
given food. Meals were served for 12'
cents, which was also tho prlco of a
night's lodging.
All travel between Peoria and Illoom
lngton wns by stage, unless ono hnd n
private vehicle of one's own nnd cared
to make bo long a Journey, which was
not a light thing In those days, nor was
It undertaken without duo preparation
and much consideration. This ancient
Inn has stood where It now stands for
the pnst sixty-live years. Bloomlngton,

Henpecked huHhnndu are common In
China, and Chinese literature abounds
with references to them. The following
Ih n snmple story: Ten henpecked litis
hands resolved to form a society to re
sist the Impositions of their wives. The
ten wives heard of the plan, and while
tho meeting for organization was In
progress entered in a body. Nine of the
rebellions husbands Incontinently bolt
ed, but the tenth one retained his place,
quite unmoved by the frightful appari
tion. Tho teu ladles, merely smiling
contemptuously on the ono man left be
hind, returned to their homes, satisfied
with the success of their raid. The nine
husbands thereupon returned nnd re
solved to make tho heroic tenth the
president of the society. When they
went, however, to Inform him of the
honor it was found that he had died of'
fright.
Favorable Argument.
"It looks like a poor automobile,"
complained the prospective customer.
"Why, the thing would break down be
fore It ran a mile."
"Ves," agreed the dealer, "but look at
the advantage of that. You would not
have to walk so far to get home as you
would If It would run as fur as tho
others before blowing up'IJaltlniore

It is too bud that In this craze to beat
records u mun doesn't try to buy his
wife handsomer dresses than her fath
er er gave her.
