Queer Old Anolant Matheda Are Still Uaed by Many Natives. Cblneso hold that the art of printing waa discovered In China about fifty year before the Chrlatlnn era. Until tho discovery of tbo art of paper mak ing, A. D. W, they printed on allk or cloth cut In the form of leavea. The method employed to tula day by many native Chinese prlntera la aubatautlally aa followa: ' No printing preae la used. Tbe dell rate nature of the Chinese paper will not admit of It, When the block are engraved, tbe paper la cut and the Ink la ready one man with bla bruah prlnta a large numlter of sheet In a day. The block to be printed must be placed perfectly level and secured firmly. The printer haa two bruabea, one of them atlffer than tho other, which be can hold In bla hand and uae at either end. Tie dlpe It Into tbe Ink and rube tbe block with It. taking care not to molaten It too much or leave It too dry. If It were welted too much the character would be blurred; If too little they would not print When once the block la got into tbe proNr condition be can print, three or four lmpreNona without dipping the bruah Into the Ink again. The aecond brush la uaed to rub over the paper with a anuill degree of pre aure that It may take tbe Impression. Thta It doea easily, for. not being staed with alum. It receive tho Ink the bl atant It cornea lu contact with It It la only necessary that tbe bruah abould be puMtod over every part of the abect with a greater or amaller de gree of pressure and related In pro portion aa the printer flmla there la more or less Ink Uhu tbe block.

In baaeball we have a game combtntng three of the moat deep aeatcd racial In-atlucte-tbe Inntlnct to throw, to run and to atrlke. During untold period of tbe life blatory of our race aurvlvnl baa come to him who could throw the atratghteat, run the awtfteat and atrlke the bardeat To throw aometblng at aometblng la almost aa natural for a boy aa to breathe. Throwing, batting, running, are no longer of any eervlce In this age of mind, but they were the conditions of survival In tho dlatant past. Baseball reinstate thoae ancient attitudes and bring a thrill of cherltthed memories. Any one who has ever held a bat in band and assumed the expectant atti tude of the butter knowa the peculiar thrill which la explained only by re calling that bla dUtant ancestors in Juat that attitude beat down with a real club many an oposlng foe. wheth er man or beast, and. thoae who held cluba lu thla position and struck hard quickly aurvlved and transmitted thla Instinct Tbe awkward throw of glrla, like tho left arm throw of bo.va. Is widely known. The plays of glrla reveal tbelr own aet of luatlncta recalling tbe hab its of primitive. "We are tbe descend ants of those meu who could throw and thoae women who loved children." From "The Psychology of Relaxa tion." by O. T. W. Patrick. Luok. I.nck la that which has made your successful neighbor wbnt he Is and has conspired to prevent you from be coming what you would like to be. Luck la good or bad, according to whether you are contemplating your neighbor's siiccoms or accounting on your own failures. Luck Is a bnndy little thing to have around, fur if It does not benefit you it at lenst affords yon an objective kicking point Also, the mere mention of Its name relieves you of the neces sity of making many embarrassing ex cuses. Luck Is a bnrb which may pre vent disaster from punching on your domalna, but If It doea not do this you at least have tbo satisfaction of im paling upon It all reasons for your de feat Luck la perhaps more unlucky than you are. Judge, East Indian Monkeys. A naturalist who has traveled In the East Indies says: "The effect on the monkeys of man's appearance la most interesting. Tho expression of their I emotions Is certainly almost human as 'they alt and stare at him, coughing ; and snarling with anger and contempt, 1 drawing back their heads and throw- lug the bund before tho face with a i gesture of abhorrence and other move j incuts Indicative of shocked and out ' raged feelings. P.tit predominant is the exprcRHlon of nlmoluto horror, which, ' coming from thoso we consider our still j degraded couxlns, is to our superiority j very aggravating.'' Wondsrfull . "Jimt think of It! A wholo splendid dinner-soup, fish, entree, Joint with two vegetables, dessert and cheese for dime!" "Wonderful! Whero can you get such a dinner at such a price?" "Nowhere; but Just think of ltl" Exchnnge. No Help. "Few actors are antlsflrd with their newspaper notices." "Nor can they ever bo, Of necessity the nnmo of tho actor must bo printed In smaller type than the name of tbo newspaper." Louisville ' Courier-Journal. : ' 1 ' PORTLAND MARKETS Portland, May 3.

Tbu seven wise men of Greece were ThulP or Miletus, I'erluiider of Cor inth. CleohsPw of Lyndus. Chllo of Lncednemnn. Solon of Athens. Bias of Pricue and I'ittaeus of Mltylene. Some fishermen of Miletus sold a draft of fishes to a bystnuder. When the net was drawn in It contained a gold en tripod, and the purchaser claimed It was his. while the fishermen con tended that they sold only the fish that might lx- in the net. The repute was referred to the oracle of the Del phi, who awarded tbe tripod to tbe wisest man in Oreece. Thereupon It wa taken to Tbnles. who declined it and suggested that it be giveu to Bias. He In turn refused to accept It and tnus it was successively declined by all the seen, and they were there after known as the seven wise men of Greece. Un versatile Nature. Marie, the eight-year-old hopeful of a certain household of this city, was seated at the breakfast table one morning. As usual, eggs were served.
