Sponge Gatherers Esgaite in Sab aqoeooi Contests for Her Band. In many of the Greek islands diving for sponges forms a considerable part cf the occupation of the inhabitants. A visitor to this unfrequented region describes the following rather startling custom. He says: "Himia, which is a little island directly opposite Ehodes, is worthy of notice on account of the Biugnlar method by which the Greek inhabitants of the island get their liv ing. On the bottom of the sea in this locality the common sponge is found in greater .abundance than in any other J .. purt of the Mediterranean. The natives purt make it a trade to gather these, and their income from this source is far from contemptible; their goods are al ways in demand among the Turks, who use an Incredible number of sponges in the ablutions prescribed by the Moham Hiedan ritual. A girl in, this islnnd is not permitted to marry until she has brought up a certain number of sponges and given proof of her skill by taking them from a certain depth. But in certain of these islands this custom is reversed. The father of a marriage able daughter bestows her on the best diver among her suitors. He who can stay longest in the water and bring up the biggest cargo of sponges marries the maid." - The Obesity Record. Daniel Lambert, the famous fat man and the most notd example of obesity recorded in medical annals, was 'born in 1770, and died at the age of 40, of ex cessive fat. His weight was 739 pounds. Teacher Wltbont Pnplla. ' r 'A. peculiar state of affairs exists in one comer of Kit Carson county, Col. A school-teacher there has a fine achoolhouse, but not a single pupil, and as she is conscientious she is perplexed as to whether it is her duty to go out on the prairie and lassoo the first creature that looks to be in need of instruction or wait in the hope of a voluntary ap pearance of something capable of be lt.? instructed. ' - yutf i GAVE HIMSELF UP TO DEATH. Feelinara of Man Who KelF Into an AbandOBFd Khaft. P...D. Smith, an old book, man, tells a most interesting story of how it feels to be buried alive, say a the Los Angeles Record. Tor ne hour he lay at the bottom of a deserted mine shaft and was only saved by a dog that whined and howled at a neighbor's house. J ust after a recent storm Mr. Smith went prospecting in Deer canyon, a branch of the Big Tejunga, in the San Fernan do range. He was removing some tim ber about the top of an old shaft, when the rotten wood gave way and carried him to the bottom of the shaft. A heavy load of timber and earth' followed. Strange to say, he was uninjured and lay free from immediate danger in the dark, damp space left by the boards. Gloomy were the thoughts that filled his mind as he lay there and thoughts of his past life and the Inenas ne would never see again, for the shaft was one which had been covered over head and lost to the knowledge of the neighborhood for years. Moreover, it was a mile and a half from the nearest house. Once or twice he' shouted, but his voice sounded sepulchral as it echoed in muffled way between the overhanging walls and reverberated in his cars. For one hour he lay there in this cramped position, while gloomy thoughts passed in frightful procession through his mind. Fortunately, his little dog was with him. "Boss" is a particularly intelli gent dog,and after the accident to his master went to the nearest house and acted so strangely that Mr. Walton, the owner, followed him to the shaft. There he found and rescued him. FRUIT AS A MEDICINE. Aelaa in Fruit Aaalat the Action of the Stomach. Why for ages have people eaten apple th. se !?t P'K? 18 the conundrum asked by Popular Science Monthly, which theu proceeds to elucidate as follows: Simply because the acids and pep tones in the fruit assist in digesting the fat so abundant in this kind of food. For the same reason at the end of a heavy dinner we eat our eooked fruits and ' when we want their digestive ac tion even more developed we take them after dinner in their natural uncooked state as dessert. In the past ages in stinct has taught men to do this; to-day science tells them why they ddd it, and this same science tells us that fruit should! be eaten as an aid to digestion of other foods much more than it is now. Cultivated fruits, such as apples, pears; cherries, strawberries-, grapes, etc:, contain on an analysis very similar proportions of the same -ingredients, which are about one per cent, of malic and other acids, and one per cent. of flesh-forming albuminoids, with over 80 per cent, of water. " . Digestion depends upon the action of pepsin in the stomach. Fats ore di gested by these acids and the bile from the liver. Now, the acids and peptones in fruit peculiarly assist the acids of the stomach. Only lately even royalty has been taking lemon juice in tea instead of sugar, and lemon juice has been pre scribed largely by physicians to help weak digestion, simply because these acids exist very abundantly in the lemon. INDIAN POLYCiAMISTS. , E'ord to Be Made to Stop the Practice in the Indian Territory. The officials of Perry, O. T., together with those of the Indian territory, will, I it is reported, make an earnest ef fort to stop polygamy among the In I dians. Tolygamj- is practiced among ! nearly all of the tribes, and especially among the Cheyennes and Arapahoes, Mai. A. E. Woodson, agent for these tribes,, says there are Indians amon them who have from two to half a dozen wives. Mai. Woodson says the Indians refuse to give up their extra wives, and say they will not obey the territorial laws in this respect. The major says there are only about 45 cases of polygamy among his In dians. Thej- are opposed to a cnanger , ' , , . . . ,.,, I -They come to him saying that they , J wc;r,or, nave nearu. uuluixi nuw n u..w.b nJiKjut it, and are inclined to question the territorial law. They imagine everything must come from Washing ton. Most Indians who- were living in vil lages six years ago are now on their al lotments. The only unruly ones are 300 Cheyennes at Red Moon and Can tonement. They are practically as unciv ilized as thev were years ago, and re fuse to take their allotments of land, They are hopeful that th'ey will again be placed under civilian instead of mil itary agents. Their refusal to adopt civilized ways is due mostly to the chiefs, who know that their .power will be trone the moment the Indians are separated on their allotments. Electric Lia-nt in the Arctie. Electricity plaj ed au important part in the Arctic voyage, of the Fram, Dr. Hansen's stanch vessel. The electric lights were daily used on board, accord ing to'the Elektroteknisk Tedsskrift of Christiania, until May, 1805, when the wearing out of the gearing and the fact that portions of the apparatus were needed for making snowshoes made it necessary to dispense -with the use of the dynamo, which was worked by a windmill... Though at times the ac cumulators froze solidSy, yet the acid blended ice proved a fine electrolyte. Electricity, too, fired the mine shots which freed the Fram from the ice , floes. " ! ...
