Smelling Among the American In
dams.

The American Indian method Of smelt-
ing precious metals was one of the most
remarkable devices of savage ingenuity.
Logan tell us that, having first followed
out flat stone in the shape of basin.
they filled it with charcoal, and upon
this laid the nuggets of metals. A num-
Der of Indians next seat them selves in a
circle around the basin, each one having
in his hand long reed pierced through
its entire length and armed at one end
with clay tube or pipe. Everything
being ready, fire was applied to the char
coal, and the whole mass instantly blown
into powerful heat through the reeds,
the clay eXtremities of which were in-
serted in the basin, while the Indians
blew through them with all their might,
and with protracted expiration. No or.
binary lump of either gold or copper
could long maintain its solidity in such q
crucible. With this process the Indians
could easily produce any variety of or
nament from these metals, using them
either alone or in alloy. This method
was known to have been in use among
the Indians who lived upon the gold pro-
ducing lands of North Carolina, and the
same process must have been known to
the Cherokees. These chronicles and
traditions go to confirm what Lawson
says, that the Indians, from time imme-
mortal, were acquainted with valuable
mines Of gold and silver in Upper
Canada.

The Number Three.

When the world was created, we find
land, water, and sky; sun, moon and
star. Jonah was three days in the whales
belly; our Saviour passed three days in
the tomb. Peter denied his Savior
thrice. There were three patriarchs-
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Abraham
entertained three angels. Samuel was
called three times. "Simon, lowest thou
met" was repeated three times. Dan
lei was thrown into q den with three
lions, praying three times day.
Shwlrach, Mesheoh and AbednegO were
rescued from the flames of the furnace.
The Ten Commandments were delivered
on the third day. Job had three friends.
st. Paul speaks Of faith, hope and chart
ty, these three. Those famous dreams
Of the baker snd butler were to come 10
pass in three DAYS; and Elijah Frustrated
himself three times on the body of the
dead child. Samson deceived belilah
three times befnre she discovered the
source Of his strength. The sacred lct-

Gov. Stewards First Nomination for
Congress.

In his autobiography, now going
through the press, Gov. Seward gives an
amusing account of his nomination for
Congress in the Cayu9a District by the
anti. Masons in 1928. Seward has lived
at Auburn about four years, and though
twenty seven, his red hair made him APP
pear to be hardly twenty. The party
managers had fixed upon Mr.. Archi-
bald Green as their candidate, q quiet,
ay-headed citizen of sixty.fve years,
who had dwelt in Cayuga for third Of
a century, and held several local offices.
In those days Seward was relied upon to
draft the resolutions and addresses for
anti Masonic conventions. lie performed
this service for the congressional conven.
tons in 1928; but having to attend to a
lawsuit in All adjoining county on the
day of the meeting, he drafted the reso-
luti0ns and addres scs in advance and left
them with one of the managers. In a
painteda glowing portrait of the aged,
virtuOus, and popular Archibald Green,
the expected candidate. But the conven-
ton got into a wrangc. The managers
could not control it. The rural delegates
would not take Green; and at the close
of II contest that lasted till shutdown, they
nominated Seward. In the furry the
convention adopted the resolutions and
address without alteration, excepting
substituting the name of William II.
Seward for that of Archibald Green.
Judge of Stewards modification on reach
ing home the next day aud learning of
his nomination and reading his own ad-
drsss in the newspaper describing him
as an early pioneer Of western New York,
one of the founders of Cayuga county,
not more venerable for his years than re-
spected for his silver locks and the many
official honors bestowed upon him by
those among whom he had dwclt so long
He finally escaped from tho dilemma by
declining to run.

Aged Beauties.

History is full Of the accounts Of the
fascination Of women who were no longer
young. Thus Helen of Troy was over
forty when she perpetrated the most ia
nous elopement on record; and a. the
seige of Troy lasted decade, she could
not be very juvenile when the ill for
tune of Paris restored her to her husband,
who is reported to have received her with
unquestioned love and gratitude. Peri
cles welded the courtessn Aspasia when
she was thirty six, and yet she sfterwsrd,
for thirty years or more, welded an uu-
diminished reputation for beauty. Cleo
patrs was past thirty when Anthony fell
under her spell, which never Iessened uo-
til her death, nearly ten years after; and
Livia was thirty-three when she won the
heart OF Augustus, over whom she MAIN
tanned her ascendancy to the last.
Turning to more modern history, where
it is possible to verify dates more accu-
rately, we have the extraordinary Do
POictiers, who was thirty-six when Henry
lI.-then Duke Of Orleans, and just half
her age-became attached to her; and she
was held - the first lady and most beau
tiful woman at court up to the period of
the monarch's death and the accession of
Catharine Of Medicis. Anne of Austria
was thirty-eight when she was described
as the handsomest queen Of Europe, and
when Buckingham and Richelieu Was
her jealous admirers. Ninon, the most
celebrated wit and beauty of her dsy,
was the idol of three generations Of the
golden youth of France, and she was
seventy-twO when the Able de Berais felt
in lore with her. True it 10 that in The
case of this lady, rare combinatioa of
culture, talents and psrsoaai attractiDns
endowed their possessor SEEMINGLY with
the gifts Of eternal youth.
