COOS AND CURRY
A Merry Evening.
The. near sighted man watches lih
friend restore to n portly dowager a
ridiculous little head hag iiiat she had
dropped as ho sailed past their corner
of the room. "I wish," he said plain
tively, "that women would learn not to
drop things. My wife got mo Into a
ridiculous scrape the other night by
not being able to hold on to her belong
ings." "How was that?" his friend Inquired.
"It was at the opera," continued
IteuedlcU, "and In the middle of the
flrst act Carrie let her opera glasses
slip off her lap, She asked inu to get
them. I looked down and thought I
saw them under the seat In front of
her. I grabbed them, but they didn't
come at once, and there was a spieal
f l oin the woman In front. It was tho
heels of her two little slippers 1 had
grabbed and nearly tipped her out of
her seat. She got hysterics and had to
go out until she calmed down. Oh, I
bail a merry evening."

HUMAN PERSONALITY.
A Product Not of Brain or Heart, but
of the Nervous System.
To Galen Is ascribed the belief Uint
tho brain was the seat of the rational
soul, the heart the location of courage
and fear, and tho liver that of love
This distribution of the element of per
sonnllty over tho physical body duds
Its expression in the common speech of
today, particularly in relation to the
tieart, which Is widely accepted by tho
popular uiliid ns the source of tho more
tender emotions.
It was chletly through tho anatomist
and physiologists of the early retails
Banco that the modem movement.
which lias tended to limit personality
to tho nervous system, wns seriously
begun, a movement which, with the In
crease of knowledge, has gained sup
port to such nn extent that It can now
be maintained beyond any reasonable
doubt.
Human personality Is In no true sense
the outcome of the non-nervous organs,
such as the digestive or tho circulatory
organs, but Is the direct product of the
nervous system. This system, to be
sure. Is embedded iiinong the other or
guns of the body, and the environment
thus provided Inlluences profoundly its
condition and action, but ncutencss or
dullness of sense, quickness or slowness
of action, temperamental traits, such
as n gloomy or bright disposition, In
capacity, shiftlessness, honesty, thrift!
ncss or sweetness, are all, strictly
speaking, functions of the nervous or
guns.
Although only the higher nnluiaU
can be snld to possess personality In
this sense, traces of It occur In Uio
lower forvus, anil Its evolution Is In
dlssolulily connected with that of the
nervous system. Professor (J. II. Par

POLAR RESEARCH.
Arctio and Antarctic Problems ThM
Still Remain Unsolved.
Tho era of pole hunting Is now lif p
illy over, nnd the best result of Pea
ry's nnd Amundsen's athletic feats in
the north nnd south is that the reallj
important problems of tho circumpolar
regions enn henceforth bo attacked
with a single mind, from n scientlllc
standpoint enough work remains to be
done In these regions to last for sev
eral generations.
Tho antarctic has onky been scratch
ed, so to speak. Owing to the diverse
scales used in school geographies tho
average man goes through life with
badly warped ideas concerning tho rel
ntlvo sizes of various parts of the
earth's surface, ami so probably few
people realize that the antarctic conti
nent is very much larger than Europe
-In fact, about as large as Kurope and
Australia combined. Of this huge con
tinent we do not know even the shape
nnd local Ion of the coast line, except
for oiio long stretch south of Australia
and a few widely scattered points else
where, while the whole interior, apart
from a narrow wedge between Itoss
hc.'i and the pole, is virtually blank on
our maps.
In tho arctic u patch of a million
sipiare miles is still absolutely un
touched. So much for mere surface
geography; but. of course, modern po
lar research Includes a wide range of
noiigeographical problems pertaining
lo such diverse subjects as geology,
glaclology, meteorology, terrestrial mag
netism, seismology, oceanography, zool
i.gy. botany, physiology, ethnology and
archaeology. Iteview of Itevlews.
ORIGIN OF THE PEARL.
The Ancients Thought It Was a Drop
of Dew From Heaven.
No record exists or even tradition ns
to the discovery of the llrst pearl. Tho
mystery of Its origin has doubtless con
tributed In no small degreo to render It
the prime favorite that It has ever been
In the eyes of the orientals,
I'roin time Immemorial I hi; nations
of nnthpiity have used the pearl to
decorate their persons and adorn their
leuiples and we Mud many curious be
liefs existing as to Its origin. The one
most prevalent In Pliny's time was
that pearls were formed from thedews
of heaven, fulling into the open shells
at breeding time, and it was In allusion
to this pretty conceit that a noble Vene
tian lady named Corraro had a gold
medal struck (bearing the date 1(120)
on the reverse side of which Is nn open
shell receiving the drops of dew from
heaven which form Into pearls ns the
fall. The motto was "I tore dlvlno"
(by the divine dew).
In these more practical but less poetic
days the generally accepted theory 1
that some foreign substance, possibly
even a grain of sand, having by accl
dent entered the shell of the oykter, n

BELLES OF THE ORIENT.
Oeauty Baths nnd Cosmetics Are ths
Light of Their Lives.
If the woman of fashion of London,
Pails or New York spent as much thus
over her toilet as her sister of the fat
east she would have very little left In
which to attend to her social and do
mestlc duties.
The oriental belle devotes nnwt of
her day to the preservation of hf
health and beauty, yhe uses miiij
wonderful cosmetics for coloring Jier
eyes and brows and for beautifying
her skin. On arising her hair Is dress
ed by her maid, who massages the
scaln with oil made from aloe wood or
cocoanut. The Eastern woman will
never Interfere with the color of her
hair, for the long silky blue black locks
arc considered her chief charm.
Next a very hot bath Is prepared.
mill lu this she remains for two or
three hours. In place of soap number
less unguents aro used, which render
the skin as soft as velvet. These dell
rate perfumes are secret preparations
.V? the bathing woman.
Tile hair of the oriental beauty Is
beautifully long and soft, and the.i
have a way of arranging It which adds
a distinct charm. The face is washed
over witli niljk Into which tho Ju'ce of
a lemon has been squeezed. Pertunics
permeate the garments, but are seldom

then Exploited His Views on the Um
of a Check Book.
During a llnnnelal stringency some
years ago n Swedish farmer In one of
the mlddli! west states had sold some
hogs on the local market nnd upon
receiving his check hi payment Im
mediately went to the local bank to
realize on his sale. Upon presentment
of the check the banker said to him,
Ho yon wish the money on Mils

Veil, I tank I yust so veil take him."
was the quick reply.
"You really want the money?"
"Vnli, I tank I take the nioii e."
"Itut do you really need the money?"
asked the banker.
"Veil, no; I don't exactly need him.

Well," said tho banker, "If you
really want tho money of course I will
glvo It to you. lint I thought If you
did uV need It perhaps you might open

then check against It as you needed
It."
Hen ven I send my shocks here you
will refuse to pay doni."
"Oh, no, wo won't. If you open Him
account wo will pay your checks
tvhenevor they come In."
This seemed assuring to tho Swcdo,
snd he said, "Veil, If you pays my
sjiecks, den I open de account." And
tlio account was opened nnd passbook

customer.
Half an hour later a close friend of
