It Is only the eonst nntlveg who can bunt the seal, ami all Eskimos are for bidden by their taboos to have seal meat and deer ment In their Igloos at the same time. Taboos ore rules which the Eskimo believes he must observe; If he did not, the spirits would be very angry with him and spoil his hunting, so If he wants to get uny food for himself and his family, he thinks, he must be very careful not to break any of those rules. Tlds makes Ills hard life very much harder. Eskimos who live away from the seo, therefore, depend entirely on the cari bou for food and clothing. The enrl- bou is different from all other members of the deer tribe and Is found only in the Barrens and the extreme North. They live on the moss and tundra which grows there and never come ns fnr south ns the bush country where this moss does not grow. The Eskimo uses up every particle of the animal In a surprising number of ways. All the ment (took-too, be calls It) Is good to eat, but the tongue and the back steak are the choicest morsels. Next, he splits the bones to get the marrow. It looks like hlnnc mange that has been colored pink, and the Eskimo ents It frozen, although on very special occasions, he has fried marrows. “Food of the Goda,” Name Given to Cacoa The tropical tree which is the source of chocolate Is called the cacao. In Its leathery, cucumberlike fruit are cacao pods which contain cacoa beans, according to the National Geographic society. But when the beans are roast ed and ground, ami much of the fat is pressed out, the remaining brown substance (ground to a dry powder), Is cocoa. If the fat Is not pressed out, the darker substance is chocolate. Credit for the manufacture of choc- olnte from the hidden seed of an un prepossessing fruit belongs to the orig inal Inhabitants of Mexico. In lfilB, when Hernando Cortez Invaded that country, he discovered that the cacao tree was widely cultivated. The na tives had concocted a drink called “chocolatl" or “cacahualtl,” from which have come the names “chocolate” and “cocoa.” Frothing pitchers of choc olate were served by Montezuma when lie entertained Cortez. Students of American native cus toms have estimated that the drink was In use 1,000 years before the ar rival of Europeans. According to Mex ican mythology the seed of the cacao tree was carried from a new world version of the Garden of Eden into Mexico by Quetznlcoatl, God of Air. The fruit, It Is related, was a favorite food of the gods. The great Swedish botanist, Linnaeus, christened the fruit Theobroma cacao, meaning In Greek “Food of the Gods.” Where Snow* Come From The weather bureau says that the greater number of more or less heavy snows come with southerly to easterly winds—l.e., In what Is known as the “rainy" portion of the cyclonic or storm area. These winds generally are relatively mild. As the storm passes, the winds come from the northwest, roughly, and are relatively cold. In short, precipitation comes with relatively warm easterly to south erly winds, and clear weather follows with relatively cold northwest winds. If. then, the winter wind Is from the northwest, It Is cold and from the wrong direction to give much snow. This presumably Is the origin of the saying, "It Is too cold to snow.” This statement, however, Is not literally true, for light snows can occur at any temperature and It occasionally hap pens that heavy snows occur when the surface air is quite cold. Architect* Organised Early Architects for many ages have joined together In voluntary associations for the protection and advancement of their profession. As chief artificers they organized themselves Into guilds in classical times and countries, and this practice was revived In the medie val period and again In the Eighteenth century. An architectural club was formed In London In 1791 and there was an architectural society in the same metropolis In 1800. The Royal Institute of Brltisli Architects was organized In 1834, with Earl de Grey as presi dent. The Architectural Association of Great Britain began about 1840 nnd the Architectural museum, Westmin ster, was opened July 21, 1809. The American Institute of Architects was Incorporated In New York In 1857. Mantelpiece Burglaries At Intervals during more than 150 yeurs, epidemics of Adum muntelplece burgluries huve occurred In England. Back In 1779, Shakespeare's manu script of Richard III was stolen nnd sealed In a mantelpiece which, upon the owner’s death, was sent to a close friend whose housekeeper unwittingly sold It for junk. Ever since, thou sands — including burglars — have Searched for this precious treasure In vain.—Collier’s Weekly. Poles Apart The north and south polar regions are in complete contrast. The Arctic contains about 1,000,000 Inhabitants, bns much plant and animal life and a summer three months long. The Ant arctic. being much colder, Is a vast field of ice without any lift except mosses and one Insect which is active only a few days each year.
