one who thus finds support aud en-
dcavor to 90 on also. Another will
grasp at hin, and so on until the nogr0

Ph0tOgrRphing indians.

An Indian in:ertribal fair was held,
not long since, in the Indian Territory
in order to show some Of the results of
civilizing the savages. A number Of
tribes attended, and displayed articles
OF home manufacture, such as needle
work, embroidery, lace work and
blankets. Many OF the Indians had
their photographs taken and showed
a childish delight iu looking at their
faces. Others however could not be
persuaded to 60 near the camera
Yellow Bea: Of the Arapahoes, was
the first to pass through the ordeal Of
sitting. He suffered himself to be
properly seated and the camera
brought TO bear upon him for the first
time. But when the prepared plate
was placed in the box and the cloth
lifted he leaped to his feet with a
bound and attempted to leave the
tent.
All attempts to reason with him
failed. At last Il photograph of
Cheyenne, taken some years ago, was
shown him. He looked at it moment
then went quietly back to his chair
and sat there like a statue while bis
negative was taken. He explained
that no Cheyenne warrior was great
er brave than be.
The gigantic Osages on the other
hand would not approach the tent.
They SAID the camera robbed them of
their good spirits.
The Kickapoos gave the same rea'
son, and photographer just returned
from their reservation, informed the
writer that ne was peremptOrliy Oh
dered out of their country on that ac-
count.
The Indian is a profound believer
in the power of spirits for good or
evil. and takes care never to offend
them. The Modocs have a curious
custom, which affords a pertinent
illustration Of this fact. They are an
exceedingly cleanly tribe and bathe
frequently. But before they enter the
water or even look into it, they agit-
ate the surface with foot or hand, in
order that the good spirits may not see
them and flee away.

A Wayne County farmer had some

How Slate PENCILS Arc Made.

Broken slate from the slate quarries
is put into q mortar run by steam, and
pounded into small particles. Thence
it goes into the hopper of mill, which
runs into u "bolting machine such
as are used in Touring mills, where it
is ''bolted' the fine, almost impalpable
flour that results being taken to amix'
ing tub, where a small quantity OF
steatite flour, similarly manufactured,
is added together with other materi-
ais, the whole being made into stiff
dough. This dough is kneaded
thoroughly hs passing it several times
between iron rollers. Thence it is
conveyed to atablc where ID made into
"charges"-that is short cylinders,
four or five inches thick, and contains
eight to twelve pounds each. -Four OF
these are placed in q strong iron
chamber or 'retort' with change
able nozzle so as to regulate the size
of the pencil, and subjected to tre'
mendous hydraulic ipresure under
which the composition is pushed thro
the nozzle in long cord like q slen'
der snake sliding out of hole, and
passed over a sloping table slit at right
angle with the cords to give passage
to knife which cuts them into lengths
Then they are laid on board to dry
and after few hours are removed to
sheet of corrugated zinc, the CORFU
CATION serving to prevent the pencils
from wrapping during the process OF
baking, to which they are next sub
iected in kiln, into which superheat-
ed steam is introduced in pipes, the
temperature being regulated according
to the requirement Of the articles ex-
posed to its influence. From the kiln
the articles go to the finishing room,
where the ends are thrust for second
under rapidly revolving emery wheels,
and withdrawn neatly and smoothly
pointed ready for use. They are then
packed in pasteboard boxes, each con-
tanning one hundred pencils, and these
boxes are in turn packed for shipment
in wooden boxes containing .one
hundred each, or 10000 pen
ellis in the shipping box. Nearly all

Managing Husbands.

"lIow do you manage ~" This
il the question that we heard asked OF
one of tho "dearcst aud best" of wives,
who was conspicuously happy in her
domestic relations. "Ah i she said
with merry twinkle in her soft eyes,
",he best way 10 manage husband is
not to manage him" We were struck
with the subtle wisdom OF the SEEM
ing paradox. The average man, high
or low, is u good deal Ola pig in one
particular the way TO got him to 60
north is to try 10 drive him to the
south. He IS also like the HORSE
You can coax him to you with corn
in the measure +; but if you leave out
the corn too many times he is the
deafest, blndest, and most absolutely
independent of animals. lie may let
you get very near him, but it is only
for his own diversion. Just as you
are going to slip the halter on up fly
his heels and away he goes ! There
should be but one will with married
couple who are truly mated, and that
should be the will ol--both. 10
those who know the sweet authority
of love, this will not seem like anoth-
er paradox. We have known couples
hot so many as we could wish =
both of whom could truthfully say,
after dozen or twenty years walking
of the long path together, that they
had had their own way because the
necessary mutual yielding had been
