For some time their patience was rewarded only with disappointment, but at last one morning they came upon a party of the little men. The Negritos dropped the bundles of rattan they were carrying and concealed themselves in the under- The German and his men knew exactly what they were to do in such a case.

They were not to go an nch in pursuit. No weapon was to be shown. One of the men who could speak a little of the native dialect, aired his accomplishment In gentlest way. The white man was their good friend and had come to see them. And what wonderful presents he had brought for his friends! The white man and his servants extended their arms, which were loaded with bright cottons, strings of beads, many colored necklaces, tobacco, and other tempting articles whose merits were extolled by the spokesman with all the eloquence he could command.

They knew the natives were behind the bushes looking at the tempting sight and listening to the exhortation. Then the visitors sat down, still holding out the beautiful presents. an old man, the leader of the party, stuck his head out of the bush. He broke off a green twig and held it up. It was a sign of peace and the white man nodded to him.

The Ice was broken. The Negrito approached the European, they shook hands, some of the presents were distributed the visitors becamo the guests of the little mountaineers. They were passed on from one group to another till Grubauer, after a considerable time, had completed his studies. WHY HOTEL RATES ARE HIGH Some Expenses Not Put Down In Are Disclosed by Wife of Hotel Manager. New now and then one learns something new of the New York hotels.

Mrs. Max Thompson, wife of the assistant manager of a Gotham hotel, is entitled to the gratitude of the public for letting In a little light upon the duties and emoluments of the hotel if she did do the letting in because, according to her husband, some dispute concerning a fUzzy poodle, had risen between them. In her petition for alimony alleges that her husband's income is $8,400 annually. "He is paid $1,800 for his services; $600 as agent for a champagne; $720 for certain unnamed services performed for hotels in Paris, Berlin and London and $1,200 by steamship lines for procuring certain business for them." That happens to figure up to $10,800 a year, but. the difference may be set down to the difficulty which ladies notoriously experienced in dealing with arithmetical facts.

It also happens that she-does not state all the facts, If the facts In Mr. Thompson's case coincide with the facts in the other hotel officials. For example, the assistant manager of tho hotel is allowed his rooms and a certain specified sum daily, in the dining-rooms. The discreet pushing of a brand of.cigars is always worth something. One bartender in one of the great hotels admittedly received $10 a day for pushing a certain whisky.

No doubt his immediate superiors may have profited slightly by the same brand. The carriage callers, head porters, stewards, chefs, detectives, laundry chiefs, head other employe in a position of even modified authority about a are able to add to their income by certain other side incomes. No doubt they are sometimes moved by sheer gratitude to share such gratuities with the men who have tho power of discharge over them. "I will take any position of responsibility whatever in any one of the great hotels," said a competent hotel man, "and I will serve without salary and with absolute honesty. And at the end of the year I will have made more money than the manager's salary amounts to.

Keith, aflpd 113 years, and her youngest son, 89 years old, took their first rldo on a passenger train recently. The train brought thorn from their home, several miles from a railroad, in southern Arkansas.

Charles McManafliy was the first patrolman In uniform they saw. "Are you a policeman?" asked Mrs. Keith. "Well, we want you to show up how to get uptown. This is the first time my son and I ever have been in Joplln.

We came up to see the sights. "My, Isn't this a big town!" exclaimed Mrs. Keith as she got her first glimpse of Joplin'a busy thoroughfares. Mrs. Keith needed no assistance as she walked.

She appeared much younger than she is, and walked with; a quick step and with shoulders erect. The son, too, was active. Mrs. Keith said she has three sons older than the one who accompanied her here. The eldest is 95, she said.

Franklin, It is the right of a husband to insist that his wife keep the family's expenditures well within his income was a rule laid 'down here by.Judge George 3. Criswell in refusing to grant to Mrs.

Laura F. Sylvester, of Oil City, a divorce from William W. Sylvester. The wife asked for a decree on the ground of cruelty, and at the hearing It developed that their troubles were largely financial, the husband restricting the wife's expenditures for the family to a sum within his income. In discussing this phase of the case Judge Criswell said: "The husband had upon hlrn the burden of the family maintenance.

His innotne, while fair, was limited, and it. was only reasonable on his part to insist that propor relation should be maintained between such income and the family expenses. The failure to preserve it could result in his humiliation and loss of caste and standing for business integrity among his associates and in the community, something highly prized by a man of principle and made in a day to some one or other of the many Islands lying between the city and the open sea. On these islands, divided by narrow channels of deep, still water, opening out here and there into lakelike lagoons or wider rlverlike spaces, and with shores all clothed with water's edge, the people live their summer life. On the banks are many pretty villas with tiny landing stages among rocks which rise sheer out of fathom deep water.

Some of the little; Islands are joined to larger ones by picturesque' bridges, while red and white and green restaurants are set about among the pine trees. Surpassing all other beauty is the indescribable northern twilight with its wonderful tender blue shot through with glowing pink. The light is clear and bright, so much so that one can see everything distinctly, can read and write with ease, and yet it la not daylight, nor could it be mistaken for such. One can sail in and out for many hours between the islands before reaching the open Baltic with Its crisp waves and rougher water. Restored to Health by Lydia E.
