Like the vendor of Seville pic- 

 tured on page 654, the milkman 

 in Chili doesn't bother about a 

 wagon to deliver his milk. The 

 milk cans are carried in sacks 

 over the horse's back and the 

 milk is measured out with a 

 dipper straight from the can to 

 the consumer. In some parts of 

 Chili the donkey takes the place 

 of the horse as a milk- carrier 



When W. C. Grant lost his arms 

 braking freight in the West 

 Buffalo freight yards he forgot 

 about misfortune and became a 

 street musician. He had a 

 special instrument made for him, 

 consisting of pipes mounted on a 

 metal support. By binding the 

 stumps of his arms with cloth 

 and by rubbing rosin on the 

 cloth, he was able to extract 

 music from the pipes. He has 

 played in the streets of all the 

 big towns from coast to coast 



Two Massachusetts boys wash- 

 ing out riches, but the mineral is 

 lead instead of gold. A gun club 

 shoots over the mud flat and the 

 boys collect the shot from mud 



When a steamer heaves in sight near Jamaica it is be- 

 sieged by native traders who are anxious to dispose 

 of young monkeys that have been trained and 

 birds of brilliant plumage for a little silver. 

 They approach the ship in canoes and small boats
