LIVE APART FROM THE WORLD
People of Northern Korea as'Ignorant
u Were Their Ancestors\Thou
t; sends of Y-jars Ago.
#
' Man}- of the natives In the north
of Koren have uever seen a white
man. A bulletin of the National G'_>o
fraphlcsociety sa.vs that they are liv
ing among the hills today much as did
their ancestors centuries ago, wor
shiping mythical gods In the rocks and
trees on every mountain top, keeping
their women In semi-slavery, and dy
ing In Ignorance of the world beyond
their narrow confines. After the Kus
so-Japanese war of 1904 the country
was opened to foreigners, and the ex
ploration of the northern part pro
grossed by leaps and bounds, until
the only extensive unknown area lay
along the north central boundary, be
tween the Tumen and Valu rivers.
The old walls of the ancient city of
Musan bear five centuries of history.
Few white men have wanuered Inland
to the gates of this city, and except
for a few stragglers It lies unknown
to the western world. The great cen
tral palace or reception hall, remains
Intact, and close by, in palatial ruins,
Is the temple guest-house. The small
er public buildings, the gates, tiii<
watch towers ami. most of all, the
walls themselves, have their owu pe
culiar fascination, telling their own
story or adding a chapter to that of its
neighbor.
The Koreans believe the blood of a
deer or any wild animal. If drunk
when warm, to be a splendid tonic.
Tigers' claws, whiskers, bones and
teeth are especially valuable, and prep
arations made from these materials
were often given to soldiers before a
battle or any especially hazardous en
terprise. since they were believed to
Induce great bravery.
ETIQUETTE AT FIJI TABLE
Guest Would Do Well to Familiarize
Himself With the Rules, Which
Are Exceedingly Strict.
If ever you go to FIJI and are asked
to attend n public dinner, pray be very
careful how you behave or it may cost
you vour life. Is the Injunction of a
writer In London Answers. A public
dinner In Eljl Is a grand nfTalr, and
all the guests give a hand In feeding
the oven or stirring the pot A floor
of clean leaves is covered with coco
nuts. on which are heaped baked taro
and yams—like a large potato—to the
amount of several tons. The next tier
comprises a well oiled "pudding In
gr> .-n leaves" called "vnkalolo." Baked
turtles are next heaped on top of these
puddings or two or three hogs baked
whole.
At one public dinner In FIJI there
were fifty tons of yams, fifteen tons of
vnkalolo puddings, seventy turtles, five
carloads of yagooa and 2tH) tons of un
cocked yams.
A chief, having enten a coconut
wiTh.iiit offering a piece to one of his
followers, the latter went over to the
• ni> and singled out his former mas
te in their next battle. Asking for
irerey, the stern reply was. "Ikm't you
reii.lleet the nut at the last public din
ner? Kor that you die."
Another chief once sat with his fa
ther-In law ami on passing a dish of
cooked fish, he broke off a bit of Its
tail. A dark scowl covered the rela
tive's face, and before many hours
were passed, he slew his son-in-law,
having first intimated that he was In
sulted by being offered a broken tail.
Pitcher Plant's Curious Leaves.
In ilie swamp regions of India and
China a herbaceous plant Is found
w hicli has very curious leaves. Each
leaf has the mid-rib prolonged to a
great extent, far beyond the leaf prop
er. terminating In a very singular
pitcher, from which the plant derives
I its common name of "pitcher plant."
I This again terminates in a lid which Is
! regarded by botanists as the true
blade of the leaf.
In this pitcher a fluid Is found which
comes from tiie plant itself and Is
probably necessary for Its nourish
ment. This fluid, which contains some J
potash, varies much In quantity,
sometimes only a drop or two, but
often there Is enough to drown any in
quisitive inseet which may venture In
side. and such luwcts are frequently
found in the pitcher.—Brooklyn Eagle.
Great Soldier's Monuments.
Greatest of ali monuments of Em
peror Napoleon are the two arches
I of triumph. L'Arc de Trlomphe and
L'Arc du Carrousel, both of which
were erected by the devoted Parisians
tliut all the world might know the
milftarv supremacy which was theirs
under Napoleon. Equal to these in im
portance Is the tomb of the emperor,
Les Invalides, which he decided
should be a home for aged and dis
abled soldiers, but which the Parisians
turned Into a great museum to house
countless trophies of his wars and
articles of his personal equipment, as
well as the body of the national hero,
who wished to be buried on the banks
of the Seine amidst his beloved
"children."
Royal Needlewoman.
The Royal Scho..i of Ar» Needle
work. South Kensington. London. Eng..
has had committed to its keeping for
exhibition purposes a magnificent
piece of early rose point lace, attrib
uted to the needle of Mary Queen of
Scots, and given to the convent of
the Irish nuns of Tpres by James II.,
and also a set of vestments in a won
d»rfui Italian brocade of the sixteenth
century. The brocade was worn by
j the Archduchess Isabella, daughter of

THEIR DAY OFF
By LYDIA L. ROBERTS.
152®. by McClura .Nawapaper Syndicate.)
"Goodby. dears; be good children
for grandma. Yes. I'll bring some
candy; yes, baby, you may stay up
and wait for us. Don't forget to prac
tice, Bob; and please return the
library books, Dick. Goodby, every
body," and Barbara Allen ran down
the steps and hurried for the train.
"Now for a real rest and some fun,"
she thought In relief as the train
neared the city.
"You are right on. time, Harvey,"
she smiled as a tall, gray-eyed man
eagerly met her In the station. "To
day I can have you for a whole after
noon all to myself. I don't know how
1 should stand life otherwise, for busi
ness claims most of your time usually,
and the furnace and the children de
mand the rest nf It."
"It Is very fluttering to think yon
prize my society so highly," replied
her husband, looking with fond pride
at the dainty, fair-haired little woman
at his side.
"Here we are In the palace of
thrills, and we are lucky today, for
these are good seats." said Barbara
as they settled themselves In the the
ater.
"Sweets to the sweetest," murmured
Harvey, handing her a ribboned bos
and squeezing her baud In the dark
ness.
"I toll! you to t>u.v only half a
pound," scolded Barbara, "for you
know the other half would buy a pair
of stockings for baby; but they do
look delicious."
After the picture the lights went
on and the orchestra began to play.
"It was a good show," said Barbara
as they left the theater. ''I laughed
till I cried, and then I laughed at my
self for laughing."
"Yes. I enjoyed It," agreed Harvey.
A large, perfumed, fur-coated lady
came toward them and stopped to
chat.
"We are dining In town tonight."
said Mrs. Graham, "and we take In
the opera afterward. Have you been
lately!"
"Oh. dear, no!" laughed Barbara.
"We are having our regular day off.
Every Saturday afternoon we meet In
town and enjoy the movies, and end
up with coffee and crackers at a dairy
lunch and go home with a bagful of
groceries anil goodies for the children.
We have heaps of fun and It bright
ens all the week."
"Oh. you i hll.lren!" said Mrs. fira
ham Indulgently. "Well, it's all right
If you lik-- it. I suppose. We really
must be hurrying, so gomlby."
"That couple lias ne\er grown up."
pityingly said Mrs. Graham to her
husband as they walked on.
"They seem very happy." he replied
quietly.
"I wish jou bad a fur coat." sighed
Ilarvev, as they came out »' a «tore.
•Tou would look. mighty pretty In
one."
"Yes. of course it would 'enhance
my beauty." said Barbara demurely,
"but the real question Is. wou'd you
love me more In It?"
"Impossible." said Harvey sincerely.
"Well. then, would It make me any
happier? No. because I'm as happy
as anyone can be right now. Kon't
mind, Harvey, dear: we are young yet
and there are years of furs and
operas ro anticipate, but meanwhile
It's a very nice world today."
"Just think, hubby, we've got four
pounds of sugar to take home. I.isten
till I tell von something:
We hold IIr our hoads,
For we're quite at our ease:
In tones lotid ar.d fearless
We sav. "More sugar p!en«e!"
"Who is this young mitl frivolous
girl 1 have with me?" mucked her hus
band. "Come in this sioro nl once
while I buy (lowers for my poetical
wife."
"Sr>. no, flc.ir. you must not! Yes,
of course I love jonquils. Well. Just
three, then, for the little vase on my
hrown desk. Oh. dearie, these are
lovely."
"Had a good time, wifle?" asked
Harvey as they finished their shop
ping and started for the train.
"Lovely time." said Barbara enthu
siastically. "I feel very luxurious go
ing home with candy and flowers and
a new magazine, besides all our neces
sities."
"Well, I have to treat my young
lady right." teased Harvey.
The train was crowded and the
white-haired conductor good-naturedly
struggled and pushed his way through
the happy t nd-of-the-week throng.
"Don't squeeze me so hard, ladles,
yon make me Mush." he joked as he
nodded t<» I'.nrbara and Harvey.
"Yes. I sold her the hat." said a
girl's voice In front of them. "She's
my brother's girl and thinks nothing
of buying a fifty-dollar hat whenever
she wants it."
"Commuiers* special," whispered
Barbara. "Isn't It funny that what
buys only enough for one person's
head will feed and house and take
care of several other people from
head to feet?"
"Here is our station." smiled Har
vey. "We've bought happiness today,
anyway, h-'ven't we. dear?"
"Yes, tl-e susar is In the bag," ro
guishly te;! ed Barbara.
A short walk brought them to their
street.
"I see the boys watching for us nnd
there's baby with her curly head hob
tilng In the window. Now they see
us! Oh. Harvey, how rich we are!
We've got each other and home nnd
t I9VC aud little children!"
CELESTE
By AGNES G. BROGAN.
(Copyright, 1»20, Western Newspaper Union)
"I'm renl glad you've cotue," said
Mrs. Lawson, "It'll be so nice to have
a good visit ouco more. Folks dton't
get to our comer of the world too
often, an' you'll want to know what's
happened to your old friends. I reckon
we an' our houses look about the same
as they used to before you )vent awtty.
Ain't much progress In Landsend. Vou
asked about Celeste an' those ore the
same words I says to her last time
I got up us far as her place. You
know it's awful Inconvenient to get
there, but Sum said he'd take me when
he drove over with supplies, so I went
Celeste'^ gran'ma hud died then, an'
Celeste was alone in the little house
her gran'ma left her under conditions
that Celeste would jzo on llvin' in it,
an' keep the place like It was used
to. I reckon it wasn't so much be
cause sho cured about losln' her leg
acy that Celeste kept on llvin' there
aloue, but the girl has that kind of a
conscience. A dyln* wish to her Is an
oath—it has to be kept.
"Course there was another condi
tion to the will, which was that Celeste
should go on llvin' there only until she
married and had n home of her own;
there wasn't nothing binding against
that. l!ut land! the old lady felt pret
ty sure about having her place kept
up. If ever sweetness was wasted od
desert air it was Celeste's. There she
sat In her gran'ma's faded parlor,
glowlu' like a rose, cheeks all pink,
her eyes bright an' her hair soft and
curly. "Celeste Robins," I says, "how
do you manage to keep cheerful in all
this lonesome waste?"
"I'm not exactly lonesome," she
says "I read an' sew an' play, an'
drive my old horse Mollle. But I will
admit. I often do wish for compan
ionship."
"Well," says I. "Mr. Right will come
along some day." As I said It I knew
there was as much chance of anyone
who would be Mr. IJIght to Celeste—
flndin' her In that burled corner—as
there would of the president to drop
In for afternoon tea.
"Oh, 1 didn't mean tlmt particular
kind of compauionship," Celeste says.
InugltlB'. "I just meant that It would
be nice to have some pleasant person
about to enjoy tilings with. There's
so many things to enjoy," says Ce
leste; "the flowers In summer, and
right tioxv, even with all the snow
about, there's the birds, who come to
ho fed and sit In rows on the red berry
tree, ami there are cookies to be
baked for the schoolchildren," she
says, "llow they love to Had me in
my cutter at the bend of the road
when they come home from school.
Sometimes 1 drive the smallest ones
home."
"I hope." I said, as a parting Joke,
"that .Mr. Right will drop in soon an'
surprise you."
"Alrypianes don't fly this weather,"
Celeste had laughed back. An' 1 looked
up to see a blizzard gathering around
me. All night that blizzard raged,
while the thermometer went down Inf
low zero. No mail came In to Lands
end that night, or went out. either;
for the trains had been blocked In big
drifts miles out, where even snowplows
couldn't reach 'em."
I!ut as the train didn't drnw In. no
whistle sounded. So, quicker than us
careless wits, Celeste was at the tele
phone asking the station agent why;
an' when she learned of the plight of
those stranded people the girl pulls on
her fur coat, ties her red hood and
goes out in the darkness to harness
Mollic to her cutter. An' when Mollle
was ready for her light against the
night and the roads Celeste runs back
to the house to fill up a hamper with
everything eatable she could find. She
found considerable. Celeste always
did keep cooked up. I can believe
that she looked like an angel to those
hungry folks in the car when she
went sniilln' down (he aisle, her red
hood over her pretty hair, an' her
basket on her arm. She'd fell into
several snow mounds as site came, but
she didn't men lion that.
An* when one litfle frightened girl
learned lliat Celeste had driven there
she held on to her and begged to be
taken home.
"Marlon's not very- well," a man told
Celeste. "I'm afraid a night In the
car will he hard on her."
The trains were held, you see. near
er to Celeste's faraway home than to
Landsend. An', with the child's arms
around her. she suggested to the man
whom sin1 took to be the father, that
she be allowed to carry Marlon home
with her for the night.
After one look into Celeste's face he
agreed willingly. That was the begu*
nlnjr of the end. The man wasn't
Marion's father, as It turned out, but
an uncle who'd gone to fetch the child
to his own bachelor quarters after her
father died. An' when this uncle man
aged to got to Celeste's next day. an'
the child hung on to her there an' beg:
ged to stay—why. that's the way it
was arranged. He came back, this un
cle, to visit, reg'lar, an' as her gran'
ma's will hadn't said nuthin' about
holdin' Celeste to the house after she
was married, Celeste left it. Oh, yes!
she married Marion's uncle.
An' Celeste now has a line home of
tier own in the city. She keeps her
gran'ma's here for a sort of country
place. So to Celeste happiness did
come, you see. And T reckon ^hat, while
flowers may bloom unseen, you can't
hide a kind heart—it's bound to make
