Senator Bailey. The Senator did not
recognize the name, but, in accordance

Secretary Sbaw paid a visit to the
plebelt region of New England the past
summer. He stopped one night at a
small country hotel, where the youthful
daughter of the proprietor officiated at
waitress. Seating himself at the break
fast table the next morning Mr. Shaw
asked : "Have you any breakfast food,
young lady?" The Ingenuous little Ver-
monter stared perplexedly at the sec
retary, cast her eyes with significance
over the well-laden table, upon which
w as spread the usual assortment of
preserves, jellies, pickles, Worcester
shire sauce, ham, eggs and bread, and
stammered cut: "Excuse me, sir, but
what did you want?" "Why, some
breakfast food, please," repeated Sec
retary Shaw, politely. The girl frown
ed and then, with sudden Illumination
of the distinguished guest's meaning,
replied glibly, "Oh, yes, sir; we have
apple, pumpkin, gooseberry, and I be
lieve squash pie!" And she hurried
from the room to execute Secretary
Shaw's order. Exchange.

I We put very little faith In the new

equals that claimed here for Christian
Science. As a result the Importation
of opium In the Malay States has been
reduced from eighty to fifty chests a
month and thousands have been cured.
The plant Is a climber, botanlcally
called Combretum sondalcum. A decoe
tlon of the plant is put Into two bot
tles, Into one of which Is added as
much burnt opium as the patient Is
accustomed to use in a day. When he
craves opium he Is given two table-
spoonfuls from the latter bottle and
as much from the other 'bottle replaces
it to fill the space.
This is now repeated when called
for, but no new opium Is added. The
patient Is cured in from ten to fifteen
days. It looks like a plan for "taper

says the Pall Mali Gazette. They prove
that dark hair and eyes are supplant
ing the light in this country a fact
which all thoughtful persons have ob
served. But also they demonstrate the
reason which' is, shortly, that the
blonde are constitutionally unfitted to
endure the conditions of town life, and
J,V v , I Secretary Sbaw paid a visit to the actually perish In the foul atmosphere
DM ACH1 1 plebelt region of New England the past and the barbarism of the slums. Adults
enter the hospital In proportions far too
great and children die. They must have
fresh air, wholesome exercise and de
cent surroundings to keep in health.
But these are the conditions of rustic
life, which, aa universal experience in
all ages, agrees, preserves, if it does
not generate, such virtues as simplicity,
truthfulness and honesty, which town
life, favored by the dark, corrupts.
Upon the other hand, the brown-eyed
peoples assert that the fair are treach
erous and cruel. This is a common
belief in Italy, where It might be traced
to a popular reminiscence of the blonde
northerners who ravaged that hapless
country from generation to generation.
But It Is much older. Plutarch cites a
contemporary epigram passed upon Cato
the Censor, who was red-haired and
gray-eyed, which shows that It was cur
rent even then. And It Is an article of
faith all through the east. .
Sir Edward Malet tells In his biogra
phy how he once called at Alexandret-
ta, and the population assembled, be
lieving him to be the new governor of
Cyprus. To his dragoman he expressed
a hope that they were favorably Im
pressed by his appeafance, at any rate,
but the dragoman honestly replied that
It was not so a blue-eyed governor
they thought must be harsh and cruel,
And he added that the feeling Is gen
eral all through the Levant By the
famous code of Menu, an orthodox Hin
doo Is flatly forbidden to marry a wom
an with gray eyes or red hair perhaps
for this reason, though none is assigned.
In all cases It may be that a tradition
of ruthless Invaders from the north has
caused the prejudice, since many Af
ghans, and many Perslons of the wild
er tribes are fair not to mention the
British In modern times. But that is
an assumption.
We are using the term blue-eyed In a
conventional sense. As a matter of
fact, that color Is the rarest by far of
all. Some assert, Indeed, that it does
not exist, and many doubtless have nev
er seen It. Perhaps the rarity of blue
is not to be regretted! unless by enthu
siasts who set beauty above charity and
humanity. For all animals which have
blue eyes are more or less "hard of
hearing." This Is generally known in
the case of cats, ana It Is equally true
of horses and wild creatures. It Is an
Instance of co-relatlon, as Darwin term
ed the mysterious law, and one would
expect to find It apply to human be
ings as Is alleged. Also we must admit
that blue or green or gray eyes have a
narrower range of expression than
dark. Perhaps, Indeed, the fair do not
respond so quickly to the Impulse of the
moment ; of more sedate or cooler tem
perament, they cannot meet a word or
a thought half-way and flash back the
answer instantly. At any rate, brown
eyes, which we call black, have an ad
vantage In power of expression.
