The Tyranny Of Buttons.

Among all the possible arguments for
woman's natural inferiority to man the
only one having real force has never
been formulated this is her meek and
unquestioning submission to buttons.
The buttons of the male habiliments
are always coming off-notably before
breakfast, when the average husband is
about as amiable as bear with a sore
head. At this time, if he finds button
loose, he gives it a "yank, and then
looks about helplessly for his victim
the first woman coming into his field Of
vision. He holds the button up before
her, says it has "come" of, and she is
expected to sew it on straightway. Gen
orally the victim is his wife f; and, though
the baby may be crying, and the break
fast preparations in need Of supervision,
while the tyrant himself has nothing On
earth to do but make his toilet, and has,
moreover, sewing materials right before
him on the bureau Or dressing table,
he never rises to the conception of his
possible competence to supply his own
wants. Woman, in his eyes, IS the pre-
ordained supervisor of buttons and q

prerogatives is his motive for relocating
the task to her; at least this is the way
he Apologies, when in playful mood,
for his lack Of deftness with the needle,
which, as a rule, is wholly the fault Of
the women who had charge Of his boy
hood. They should have taught him to
replace the buttons he is forever wrench
ing off with his rude lingering. One or
two lessons about the time the boy be-
gins to go to school, little work-box
placed in his room, containing needles,
thread, two or three kinds of buttons
and an open-top thimble-the only kind
that ever should be worn-and the prob
lem is solved for a lifetime; for whatever
one is accustomed to do from childhood

than by learning to sew on their own

An Indian ON Indian Corn.

Some years ago Peol Susup, an ed1
Gated Indian of The Penobscot tribe
(Maine) wrote the following account O
maize or Indian corn Indian corn is
called by the Indians weachin, and is
believed by them to have originated in
Mexico. When white men discovered
America they found it In cultivation over
the two continents, from latitude 40
deg. south to the island of Orleans in
the st. Lawrence river. That was prob
ably its extreme limit in the Northeast.
How it could have been propagated and
ripened 80 far north of it's tropical home
has been a subject Of curious specula-
ton. Every cultvator has doubtless
noticed how difficult it is to perfect the
plant from seed obtained at any consid-
cradle distance south of the region in
which he endeavors to raise it. Seed
procured from New York will seldom OF
never perfectitse in Maine, and it is
deemed unsafe to plant that brought
from Massachusetts. How, then, did
the Indian, without other education
than that derived from his own unre-
corded and imperfect observations, push
its production from the Gulf of Mexico
to the st. Lawrence He certainly &C.
complished this result ages before the
white man visited him, and it was to the
natives the early white settlers of New
England we're indebted for their seed
corn of the varieties now in use. An an
nual plant may extend itself east or west
along the isothermal lines by accidental
causes, but it could not have moved into
colder climate, requiring cultivation
and care, without great attention, and
the application of more than ordinary
skill. It must have required ages to
have been acclimated in that country
now constituting Canada and the New
England States. The Indian has his
tradition regarding the method bywhich
the northern varieties of corn were OBJ
tanned and perfected. Like all the
grasses and many other annual plants,
corn grows upward by joints Or sections.
The Indians observed that the time to
produce and perfect a joint was one
change of the moon, and as the ear Of
corn starts only from joint there was
necessarily about seven days between the
forming Of the ears on successive joints.
Now, If an ear could be made to start al
the second joint it would mature some
five weeks in advance Of that which
should be formed on the seventh joint.
By constantly selecting for seed ths low.
est ears he finally produced varieties
that produced from joints lower than the
original plant, and very much earlier.
Thus in time corn was produced, small
in stock and ear, and adapted TO the
short summers OF the North. Slowly
but permanently passed into the eight.

lower joints, and ripening in three
