PAGE SEC ASITLAND TTDnfGS Monday, September 15, 1913 GETTING OUT OF THE WOODS. If You Get Lost Don't Lom Your Head, but Follow Thesa Rules. A contributor ti the Woman's Qotne Companion tells as follows bow you may tind your way out of the woods If you get lost: lf you discover that you are lost In' the woods sit down and think calmly bark over the road you have traveled, trying to decide where the camp should Jie. Then, if you have your compass and It seems to agree with your Judg ment, stick faithfully to that direc tion. Even If you are wrong in your decision It is better to keep on In one direction, because you may fall In with pome stream and can follow it to a human habitation. "If you have no compass the sun Is an excellent guide during the day Should the sky be overcast, place the point of your knife blade on the end of your thumb, turn slowly nntil the full shadow of the blade obscures the nail, aud you have discovered where the sun Is. "To prevent getting Into the circle habit break off brunches of the bushes you pnss. Start a fire If your match tafe Is with you as it should be. Re member that a fire piled up with damp wood makes a dense smoke and quick ly attracts attention. Two fires going at once, one a little removed from tho other, constitute a well known signal of distress among woodsmen. The fir ing of three shots lu succession two at tlrst, then a pause, then the third shot is another recognized signal If you happen to have a gun." DID YOU EVER EAT POI? Maybe You Wouldn't Care to the Way They Do It In Hawaii. Tot Is the national dish of .the Ela waiians, and a pol Bupper ts an event Jong to be remembered by foreigners admitted to participation therein., Pol te made from taro, a big, coarse, dark skinned vegetable grown under water, the size and shape of a large sweet po tato. The taro Is pounded until It be comes a coarse, moist mass and Is then left to ferment When pol Is served each guest bathes and dries the right hand and then pro ceeds to dip the Indei finger of that band Into the mass. There Is quite a knack In the operation, and It Is always necessary to Instruct the novice that there Is absolutely no need to move his arm. but simply the wrist One removes bis finger at the same time that his neighbor does. On the finger of the skilful operator there will be a pear shaped ball of pol. but the clumsy one's fingers will simply be thinly veneered with the substance. Then, If the stranger, ask what was the matter with his movement, he will be told that he held his finger too straight. Fie must crook It a little and turn his band not too fast, with a wrist movement only. Harper's Weekly. Woman's Wit. An emperor of Germany besieged a city which belonged to one of bis rebel lious noblemen. After the siege bad lasted for a long time the emperor de termined to take It by Btorrn and to de stroy all It contuined by fire and sword, lie did not however, wish to Injure the defenseless women. Therefore he ent a proclamation Into the town say tag that all the women might leave the place unhurt and carry with them whatever tbey held most precious. The uobleman's wife Instantly decided to take her husband, and the other wo men followed her example. They soon Issued from the city gate In a long pro cession, each one with her husband on tier shoulders. The emperor was so much struck with the noble conduct of the women that he spared alt. Even the city Itself was left untouched. Of Court. A New York dramatic writer tells of an actress ot great popularity who Is Just beginning to be obsessed with the notion that the public holds her to be older than she really Is. The writer was assigned to Inter view this player, lie wished to obtain ber views with reference to the state of the drama, a topic whereon the act ress did not seem particularly anxious to descant "It does uot seem to me." gently sug gested the Interviewer with a smile, "that I am really ascertaining your opinion. You ought to be trunk, since your eyes are gray aud" "Prematurely so. my dear boy, pre maturely so." the actress hastened to aturti him. Judge. Oelicioua Supper Diih.

Something on the Style of the House That Jack Built A man down south made a bet with bis wife which was Indiscreet The wife woo which was foreor dained. The man wrote the wife a check for fo In paymeut of the bet which was Bad. The wife cashed the check at the gro cery, but forgot to Indorse It which was natural. The grocer, despite the lack of en dorsement paid It to a packing house collector which was careless. The packing bouse collector turned It In which was all In a day's work. , The packing bouse office man discov ered the lack of indorsement which was good work. lie banded It back to the driver and docked the driver's salary which was system. The driver placed the check in his white duck coat and- sent It to the laundry which was unwise. The laundry mutilated the check be yond recognition which was to be ex-I pected. Which Is why the driver asked the cashier to ask the grocer to ask the man's wife to ask her husband to write a duplicate check. Which Is why the man feels like he is paying that bet twice.

The small boy of today is often cred ited with a predilection for saying the wrong thing In the presence of an hon ored guest. The following true inci dent shows that be also bad to be reckoned with more than seventy years ago. In the pioneer days of Michigan Dea con Drewster was noted for his large family and bis hospitality, One day Elder Allen, the circuit rider, young, good looking and, moreover, a bache lor, arrived at the deacon's In time for dinner. Presently a bounteous meal appeared upon a board rather scantily furnished. It must be owned, with cer tain necessaries in the way of table ware. After all were seated and the elder bad asked the blessing Miss Bet sy, the eldest daughter, thinking to apologize, blusblngly began: "I'm sorry I couldn't find a better knife for you. Mr. Allen. The children carry them out to dig with, you see, and forget to bring them back." "Wuy-y, sister." piped Johnny's shrill voice, "they're all here! The elder's got No Handle, dud hez Butch-, er and mammy Stub! lie 11 Jest have to take turns eating with the rest of us." Woman's Home Companion. Toward the Pole. Ice eight feet thick on the ocean and snow falling even In summer such is the weather experienced in the polar regions. When the air is dry and still It is remarkable how low a tempera ture can be borne with ease. One ex plorer tells us that with the thermome ter at 9 degrees it was too warm for skating. The summer weather In this region Is. moreover. In some respects pleasant and healthful. Within the arctic zone there are wonderfully col orded sunrises and sunsets to be seen. They are both brilliant and impressive. But the nights the nights are monot onous and repelling. A rigid world burled in everlasting snow, silent save for the cracking of the ice or the wall of the wind. Travelers In these re gions experience many discomforts. The keen air causes their skin to burn and blister, while their lips swell and crack. Thirst again, has been much complained of, arising from the action of the low temperature on tba warm body. How Zulu Servants Are Fed. Zulu servants live in a detached bouse in the yard, and each receives the following rations: A half loaf of bread per day, one can condensed milk per week, one-quarter pound of tea per week, two pounds of sugar rier week, two pounds of corn meal per week, fresh meat once a week. This meat cousists of a shilling's worth of "boy's meat," probably a pound and a half of beef, which Is boiled with vegetables, usually carrots, which the Zulus love. The black servants are known as boys," and the butchers sell a special kind of meat for them, which is called "boy'a meat"-E. W. Dowe's Monthly. Home Manners.
