Tnn I.lille ICiunTn Indlnn Trltica.
Tlu linitdsoiiipst Inillaiis In tho world
nro thu Onus Inhabitants of Term del
Fmpk. They aro cry tnll nud have
stflkliiKly licatitlftil features. They
wear no clothing except looce sklim of
nnltniiN, which they wrap about their
ImjiIIph. They never stay more than n
ulKht or two In the satne place. The
reason for this Is that nit evil spirit Is
thought to lie pursuing them, nud they
inovo on to avoid being overtaken.
When they stop In their wanderings
they dig a hole In the ground three
feet deep. They weave branches over
this, and at night all crawl Into this
ami cuddle together with their dogs
for warmth.
Another tribe Is called the Ynghnns.
riie.xe Indians get their living from the
sea liitteaii of the laud. In appear
ante they greatly resemble tho Onns,
with the exception that they are much
smaller.
They eat niblltuks, flsh, birds nnd
fttng!. Illrds are cooked lit mi unusual
milliner by tlie lnglians, who put red-
hot stones Inside tlioirt mid then plunge
them thus heated Into the coals.
They al'o have mi original wny of
rousting eggs. They break a hole In tho
end of the egg, which Is then stood tip
tight In the ashes before the lite. Tills
Is turned round mid round, that It may
lu cooked evenly.
The Vaginitis are good hunters, the
women being excellent Ushers. They are
more fearless than the men, whom they
excel In the mmiiigoment of boats and
lit swimming their rivers.

What la mi AiiutIouu f
Tho term American Is ued to desig
nate, spivlilcally, n citizen of the United
States, and yet muv strict construe
Jtloulsts hold that it might Just as rea
sonably ba applied to citizens of South
America or of Central America, ns
they aro Americans, too. And they say
tho same of the two countries. To call
the I'nlted States of America, how
ever, and Its citizens Americans Is so
well established as a custom that tho
terms would not bo titulertitood If you
need them In nny other way. Titer
has been &ome discussion of tills ques
tion recently, looking to tho selection
of a better speoltlc term for citizens
of tho United States, but It la not likely
that a chaugo will ever bo made.
Celluloid Not Emloatve.
There Is a widespread belief that cel
luloid Is explosive, but It Is not, In
splto of tho fact that It Is made large
ly of guncotton. The material Is the
cellulose of cotton cloth, or raw cot
ton, which Is treated to a weak solu
tion of nitric acid. This has tho effect
of waklug a cotton pulp much Ilka pa
per pulp. The ncld Is then wnshed out
by a water bath, nnd after the pulp
him been partially dried gum camphor
Is mixed with It, Thu final step Is
to roll It Into sheets nnd dry It on
hot cylinders, when It Is ready for thu
market. Steam softens It, but It hard
ens again when dry. If ilame bo ap
plied to It, It will burn ubout llko
sealing wax.
Dtvrn anil l.nanrua.
Some of you may bo surprised when
told that the name "Dives" Is not men
tioned lit the Dlble, nnd yet you havo
heard the story of "Dives nnd Lnzarus"
tlmo aud again, perhaps. Kvcn tho
preachers give the name Dives to tho
"certain rich man" of tho story. Tio
truth about It Is that In tho Vulgate,
or Latin Hlble, tho word "dives" Is
used where the name of tho man might
have been given; but "dives" is a Latin
adjective, meaning "rich," nnd not n
proicr noun nt nil. It Is not Btrnnge,
as the ioor man is cnled Lazarus, that
the rich man should he designated by u
pcrt'Omil name, but there Is no wurrant
It the original text for doing so.
POWER OF FALLING WATER.
Siren in an Tlilrk run Mnn'ii llnnd Will
Open II ii in mi Mkttll.
It Is perfectly well known to every
one that water constantly dropping
tiMiu a stono will wear It nway, ami
there Is a trite old proverb regarding
this fact. The force of n single drop
of water falling from a height Is not
great, hut thu results of tills tiny blow
when It Is tunny times repeated aro
astounding, even though we do know
that the stono will, In time, yield to
their power.
There was a form of torture known
to medieval days as the "ordeal of
dropping witter," but thu teqn conveys
little Idea of tho horrible suffering
which tills punishment Is said to lu
ll let.
Thcro Is n story of ono poor wretch
whii was bound with his hack to it
stono wall and had u stream of water
"of the bigness of it man's linger" ill
reettMl onto his haro head, the water
falling from n height of about eighteen
feet. The receptacle from which this
apparently harmless stieam trickled
was a barrel holding only twenty-odd
gallons, but before tho water had more
than half run out the man was dead,
with a hulu lu his skull which exposed
the bruin.
Ity way of experiment, nu American,
who Is mentioned ns "a sport mid an
acrobat," made a wager lu Vienna with
an athlete that tho latter could not en
dure the falling of a pint of water on
his hnnd, drop by drop, lu ono spot,
from n height of only threo feet.
Tho nthleto had an enormous hand,
lined with skin almost as thick and
tough ns cowhide, and nil tho spectators
pronounced the bet a foolish ono us far
ns tho American was concerned.
Hut when ubout 1IUO drops had fallen
thero was a chaugo of sentiment. Tho
athlete did not say a word, but It was
very apparent from tho flush on his
face ami his uneasy manner that ho
was suffering great pitlu. At tho -IL'Oth
drop ho gave up, declaring that ho could
no longer eiidttro tho torture.
Tho palm of his hand was then bad
ly swollen mid rapidly Inflaming, nnd
In ono spot the skin had broken, expos
ing tho raw llesh beneath.
MADE "EARTHQUAKE GOWNS."
How l.oiiiliinera uf IT.IO I'rrpnreil for
(lit- Trt'iulilrr.
It Is Interesting to remember that
Sir Isaac Newton attributed thu earth
ipuiko shock of 17.W. which emptied
Loudon nud sharpened tho wit of Will
pole, to tho dryness of the weather
which preceded It, and predicted an
other unless thero were tuln.
"Several people," wroto tho seottltig
Horace, "aro going out of town; they
say they aro not frightened, but that
It Is btich tluo weather, 'Lord, ouo cau't
help going to the country V"
According to tho sumo pen. which
spared no one, tho Ulshop of Oxford,
fearing to lose his Kuster offerings,
tried to stay the general exodus by
preaching a sermon, exhorting people
to "await Ood's good pleasure In fear
and trembling." This did not provent
TM coaches from passing Hydo Park
corner, bound for tho country and safe
ty, within three days.
"Several women havo made earth
quuko gowns; that Is, warm gowns to
sit out of doors all night," wroto Wal
pole, whoso unkind eyo nothing seems
to havo escaped. "These are of the
nioro courageous. One woman, still
more heroic, Is como to town on pur
pose; she snys nil her friends are In
London, aud she will not survive
them."
There 'were two shocks, a month
apart, nnd both during the night; so
It is easy to Imagine the panic within
doors when a certain wit, having dlued
one evening rather nioro plenteously
than usual, knocked nt several doors
in riecttdllly, and cried In a watchman's
voice, "Past 4 o'clock, and a dreadful
earthquake l" We have no reason to be
lieve that un earthquake In Piccadilly
of to-day would find men aud women
less Inclined to make themselves ridic
ulous. London Chroulcle.
Charity alwuld always begin at home,
but there's no law couipeltug It to stop
there.
