then Inquired mysteriously of tho
clerk:
"How much strychnine does It take
to kill"
"J don't know and wouldn't toll you
if I did," interrupted the clerk.
"How much do you sell for a dose?"
persisted tho stranger.
"Wo never Bell strychnine without a
prescription from some physician wo
know," answered tho clerk.
Then ho went to the telephone, rang
up three figures, aatd a few cabalistic
words, and returned to tho counter.
" Tho sad man was ulotly smokiug his
cigar. Ho took it out of his mouth to
ask:
" "How much js arscnio a grain?"
At that moment a policeman entered
tho store hastily.
"Where 1b ho?" ho asked breath
lessly. "There," said tho clerk, pointing to
the smoker, who was tho only person
In the store; "ho didn't get any poison
from mo."
"You come along," aald the police

"Rats!" said tho dejected customer

Tho Maorlca bollevod in the immor
tality of the soul long before the ar
rival oX the mlssla arles; but tho spirit
land to which they imagined all men
journeyed after death was as grossly
material as the "happy hunting
, grounds" of the North American In
dians. Such a legend as the following.
which contains an Instance of singu
larly determined parental interfer
ence, is sufficient evidence of this.
A young chief of high rank fell In
t love with a Maori maiden of great
"beauty but low degroe. His father
''forbade the banns." Thereupon tho
usual results followed. Tho young
"chlof refused to eat and died of hun
tger. The beautiful maiden, heart
"Broken at tho death of hor lover,
leaped down from tho cliffs into tho
-'e in order that she might follow him.
Now comes the extraordinary part
-f tho story. Tho obdurate father,
a hearing of the girl's leap into the sea,
crushed to. tho spot, battle-ax in hand.
oUslng terri-de language, he declared
that ho would prevent the union of the
pair in the spirit land, and forthwith
himself leaped down to follow them.
