LIKE PEI DOG
Arthur Berry who is now in. Se
ward from the Kuskokwlm is the
owner of the most wonderful moose
al<ve. Up on the banks of that
stream where Mr. Berry lives and
conducts the Kuskokwim Trading
Company he has a cow moose that
comes into the house and li.es down
Uke a pet domestic animal. When
the door is locked Mrc. Moose comes
un co tho window and looks in.
Then, to the door shq mores and
tries er^ry means to gaiu aa en
trance, and whea the door is open
she rushes right ia likq a frolic
some puopy dog. Mr. Berry got the
animal when she was only a few
weeks old and has raised her. She
follows him everywhere and has ab
solutely no fear. The only human
beings she cannot tolerate are the
Indians snd especially the squaws, j
On occasions she goes after the
natiie women and chases them. Her
method of fighting the women is to
kick at them with a foreleg, then
turn and kick out with the hind |
hoo* as 'f wishing to Rive hor fore
and aft weaoons aa equal chance.
The rea?cu for this hostility to the
natives is said to be due to the
fact that the Indians punish moose
by whipping them In the ears. Last j
season Mi. Berry grow a lot of cab
bago and when the task of feeding ;
his Det confronted him in the
fall he let her looso at the vege- j
tables.—Seward Gateway. j
FUNNY MONEY IN CHINA.
Getting or Making Change Is a Sop#
Trial to a Foreigner.
A dollar of our money In Chinese
cash weighs eighteen pounds.
In Chentefu, which is a small vitiligo
where white people seldom go, I was
going along with my guide when I saw
a small peddler beside the street 'with
some fine Peking pears. I bought six
of them for 2^ cents and in payment
gave the street peddler a twenty cent
piece. He turned it over and over and
tested it with his thumb nail, which
was surely made for the purpose. The
peddler gave back the coin and said
that he would not take It The guide
asked him why, and he explained that
he had never seen any such money and
that it might be bad. So I had to dig
up some coppers.
In all his life the peddler had never
seen a piece of silver money. There
are thousands and thousands of people
In China whose financial dealings nev
er amount to enough to have it put
into silver, who are bora, grow old and
pass to their reward without ever hav
ing seen a piece of silver.
All China Is suspicion# about money.
Every time you pnt down a dime or a
piece of silver the other person tests It
before he will take It, ringing tt on the
counter or on the pavement. You can't
give a merchant the right amount of
change and walk ofT. He won't let
you leave until he has tested every
piece, and he always gives back one or
two pieces. Be wouldn't think very
much of himself as a merchant if he
didn't refuse some of your money.
If you buy something In one part of
a store, get your change and walk to
another counter and buy something
else and give the change that has Just
been given yon the second clerk on
general principles will refuse part of It
Before you buy anything your money
has to have the once over. Sometimes
It Is maddening to have to wait while
your money U tested. .One day 1 rush
ed up to catch a train with just a min
uto to spare. One of my dollars was
bad, and before chango could be made
the train had rumbled off into the si
lent night without me. But In a few
minutes the silence was broken—bro
ken beyond repair—by nn Impulsive
young mau G.000 miles from home who
put his whole soul Into ono mighty
Missouri effort—Homer Croy in Les
lie's.
LIFE OF A PEARL
A Good Jewel Never Gets Sick Nor
Dull, Says an Expert.
In his book, "The Mp.glc of Jewels
and Charms," George F. Runs, the
jewel expert, explodes the sick pearl
fallacy. He says:
"For years a statement has been go
ing through the press that pearls are
liable to become diseased and die and
that the famous necklace of pearls pre
sented by President TUlers of France
to his wife and bequeathed by Mme.
Thiers to the Frem h government had
lost their luster and died, perhaps ow
ing to the death of the owner. For
there Is an old belief that pearls, as
well as opals and turquoises, lose some
of their luster wbeu the owner or
wearer becomes ill and change to a
dull and lifeless hue when the owner
dies.
"An examination of the necklace by
the writer showed tliat the pearls were
In good condition, and h> eoulirm bis
statement to this effcet be had the di
rector of the Louvre museum write
him a letter In lliis olliciui communi
cation the dire-tor noi uuly states that
the pearls had not sickened and died,
but that they were in as •healthy' a
condition as I hey had ever been.
"The Invariable experience of the
writer has been that whenever pearls
have been said to have suffered in this
way the true explanation has been that
:!:ev were old and poor at the time of
iheir purchase and that this romance
was started < n its travels as an excuse
tj cover up (he defeet of such pearls
and to arouse the belief that they had >
been remarkably beautiful and valu
able when they were originally ac
quired."
Th» Cart Before the Horse.
Mr. Harbord Imd 11 jewel of a serv
ant called Johanna. One day he found
Lis bedroom ;i foot deep in old and
muddy ten leaves. Johanna explained,
"The missus said I made such a dust
when I swept the floor and that ! must
put tea leaves all over the carpet, so 1
emptied the old barrel standing by the
kitchen door, and I put them on the
tloor like missus said, master, after I
Lad swept the carpet."—London Tele

Buried Alive.
In the early history of Japan It was
decidedly a dubious honor to be closely
related to any person of note, for one
of the laws at that time decreed that
when a person «>f rank or importance
died all immediate relatives must ba
buried alive In a perpendicular posi
tion aroum' the personage's grave.
Their heads were left above the earth,
and thus they remained until welcome
death came to free thrm.
