The People Who Like Shakespeare.
Says Minna Gale-Haynes: "In the en
Kafrement I have played In New York I
have noticed that the publlo no longer can
tor the legitimate. At the same time the
(rallorifls bavo always been crowded, and I
consider It is an evidence that the taste of
the great puliUo what would be called tho
mirldle ulasercn' abroad is not at so low an
ebb as many fancy. People often say 'The
public want this or 'The public is not edu
cated to receive such and such a thing.'
Try It. Give it to the publio and see. It is
the great public that gooa to see Shake
speare acted and to hoar other great works

"Tjet me give you an illustration. I have
. friend a wonderfully great preacher
who has settled down in a little town in
Ctermnny and taken charge of a small
4huroh, the congregation of whioh is not
cultivated up to his standard. But the
public will not part with him. They say,
We don't understand all thai you suy, but
we know that it is great and line, and we
love to listen to you.' That ia the same
spirit which sends the public to see the
Shakespearean dramas. And are they not
great and nobler" Philadelphia Music and
Drama.
Funlshlng an Eskimo Dog,
Tlie worst punishment that can he in
flicted upon a conscientious leador Eskimo
dog is to reduce bim to the ranks, and his
abject demeanor as he sorrowfully slinks
along with bis tail between bis legs is al
most heartrending. On the other hand, the
dog that has been promoted nt once assumes
a self conscious strut The old adage that
dog will eat dog was proved repeatedly on
my Alaska trip. On one occasion a dog re
ceived no food for nearly five days because
we had- through the buugling of a lying
guide underestimated the length of a march
and had run out of the supply of dried
salmon, whioh forms the sole diet of the
Eskimo dog.
In consequence we lost half ft dozen of
mtr faithful animals by starvation, ft trial
which to me was more agonizing than any
personal sufforing. I never saw during this
period of misorya single sign shown byauy
one of the team to satisfy his cravings npon
ttie body of his fellow. A. B. 6cban la

Narrowing the Bedsteads,
Narrow houses and small rooms In flats
are necessitating many modifications of lifs
tu New York, One result of preaeut condi
tions ifl the narrowing of the bedstead.
Time was when a double hod must be at
least Ove feet wide. In Now York today,
however, it is difficult to find a ready
jnade bedstead more than 4 feet 6 inohes
wide, and the belongings of the bed are
narrowed correspondingly. In narrowing
&e bedstead the manufacturers have not
lengthened It, so that thnt 111 used olnss of
persons who exceed 6 feet in height and
find themsolvjs in ft world built for men
of 5 feet 6 are no longer able to lie straight

THE FEAR OF SNAKES,
Why Uany Children and Aoine Crown Per.
sons Dislike Them.
There are many authenticated in
stances of child becoming attached to
snakes and making pot of them. The
solution of a question of this kind is
sometimes to be found in the child mind.
My experience ia that when yonng chil
dren see this creature its strange ap
pearance and manner of progression, bo
unlike those of other animals known to
them, affect them with amazement and
ft sense of mystery and that they fear it
just aa they would fear any other strange
thing. Monkeys are doubtless affected
in much the same way, although in ft
state of nature, where they inhabit for
ests nbonnding with the larger constrict
ors and venomous tree snakes, it is high
ly probable that they also possess ft tra
ditional fear of the serpent form. It
wonld be strange if they did not.
The experiment of presenting oaged
monkey with aserpentoarefully wrapped
up in a nowspitper and watching his be
havior when he gravely opens the par
cel, expecting to fine nothing more
wonderful than the familiar sponge
cake or Biioculent banana well, ench
an experiment has been recorded in
half a hnndred important scientific
works, and out of respect to one's mas
ters one ought to endeavor not to smile
when reading it. A third view might
be taken which would aocount for our
foeling toward the serpent without ei
ther instinct or tradition. Extreme fear
of all ophidians might simply result from
a vaprne knowledge of the fact that some
kinds are venomous; that, in some rare
cases, death follows swiftly on their
bite, and that, not being sufficiently in
telligent to distinguish the noxious from
the innocnons at all oventB while un
der the domination of a sudden, violent
emotion we destroy them all alike,
Urns adopting Herod's rough and ready
method of ridding his city of one incon
venient babe by general slaughter of
innocents.
It might be objected that in Europe,
where animosity to the serpent is great
est, death from snake bite is hardly to be
feared; tLit Fontana's 6,1100 experiments
with the viper, showing how small is the
amount of venom possessed by this spe
cies, how rarely it has the power to de
stroy human life, have been before the
world for a century. And although it
must be admitted that Fontana's work
is not in the hand of every peasant, the
foot remains that death from snake bite
is a rare thing in Europe, probably not
more than one losing his life from this
canse for every 2150 who perish by hydro
phobia, of all forms of death the most
terrible. Yet while the sight of a snake
excites in a majority of persons the most
violent emotions, dogs are universal fa
vorites, and we have them always with
ob and make pets of them in spite of the
knowledge that thoy may at any time
become rabid and inflict thnt unspeaka
bly dreadful suffering and destruction
on us.
This leads to the following question;
Is it not at least probable that onr ex
cessive fear of the serpent, so unworthy
of ns as rational beings, and the oauso of
so much unnecessary cruelty, is partlp
at all events, a resultof our superstitious
fear of sudden death? For there exists,
we know, un exceedingly widespread de
lusion that the bite of a venomouB ser
pent must kill slid kill quickly. Com
pared with such ophidian monarchs as
the bnahuiaster, fer de lnuce, hamadry
ad and tic polouga, the viper of Europe
the poor viper of many experiments
and much (not loo readable) literature
may be regardud as almost harmless at
all events not more harmful than the
hornet, Nevertheless, in this oold, north
ern world, even as in the other worlds
where nature elaborates more potent
juices, the dolusion prevails and may be
taken into aocount here, although its
origin cannot now be discussed. For my
own part I am inclined to believe that
we regard serpents with a destructive
hatred purely and simply because we are
so taught from childhood. Mocmillon's

Hawthorne as a Tlsltot
On one occasion after my return from
an African and European cruise I was
ordered to the Portsmout h station, where
we were hardly settled at housekeeping
when Hawthorne came to see us.
The hall was encumbered with boxes,
the sight of whioh node him feel his
visit to be inopportune, and he said
quickly:
"I have jnst come for an hour or two
to see you and must return this even
