Chicken Coops.

The old-fashioned coops, the chicken
coops that our childhood knew. were
queer-looking affairs Of all shapes and
sizes, made of old boxes and barrels, or
Of anything else that came handy. That
these nondescript coops were useful in
their day and generation no one will
deny: no one ever dreamed Of calling
them ornamental We don't know that
it is really necessary TO have ornament
al coops, but then, while we are about
it. we might as well make decent look
ing house for the mother hen and her
infant brood. Perhaps in time we shall
demand an aesthetic" coop with bed
Of lilies in the front ward and back
ground of big sunhowers, but we don't
insist upon this this season.
Here is chicken coop that comes
about rs near perfection rs any that we
ever tried. and we don't believe that
any sensible hen will find n word to say
against it. The upper half of the front
is Of wire netting which admits air and
light, while the projecting roof keeps
out sun and rain. The lower half is
made with perpendicular Stats. and
door which turns up on hinges and
fastens with wooden button, making
all snug and tight. When down this
door makes an excellent place TO feed
the chicks. In one end there is a small
door for the hen. and when the coop is
made with floor the door will be nee
essary to enable one to clean the coop.
The bottom should be covered with sand
or gravel which should be removed
often enough to keep clean. Where the
ground is dry and there is no danger
from rats these coops may be made
without floor and moved to fresh
spot of ground every few days. Make
the coop high enough so that the hen
can stand upright without bunIring her
head against the roof, and large enough
so that she can turn around without 60.
mo out of door. Farmer.

OLD INDIAN RITES.
Peculiar Customs of the Aborigines Of
North America.

North America.
Nearly all the peculiar customs which
formerly existed among the different
tribes of North American Indians are
now preserved only in tradition, and
many OF the most interesting have faded
even from this shadowy CONFORMATION.
One of the most striking and singular
was an eternal fire. 1t is favorite
theme to-day among the survivors of
that once powerful nation, the Natchez.
These Indians were of higher type of
intelligence than any of the North
American tribes. All the rites and
duties connected with this custom are
also fresh in the recollection of some of
the other more northern tribes. and it
was only extinguished after the arrival
Of the French upon the great lakes.
Those who were known to have been
tire-worshipers were the Chippewas and
Shawnees, possibly the IroluOiS, but
there is little proof that the latter knew
much of it. The Chippewas. who as
sert that they received their fire from
the Shawnees, inhabited the regions
around Lake Superior, and the council
house of the tribe, together with the
seat of the eternal tlre. were west of
Keweenaw Point. Here lived the prin-
cipal chief, called the Mutchekewis,
who exercised more authority and as
sumed more state than would be COM
patible with the tastes and present
feelings of the Indians. The designa-
ton was official and not personal and
the office was hereditary in the
direct male line. He was sup
ported by voluntary contributions,
his muskinewa, or provider. max
ing known from time to time
his necessities by public proclamation.
Whatever was required on these Occa-
sions. whether food or clothing, was i'm
mediately furnished. He appears to
have been their chief priest, and could
neither engage in war or the hunt. In
the village where he resided, and near
his cabin. the eternal fire was kept
burning. The altar was kind of rude
oven, over which no building was erect
ed. but guardians were selected by the
Mutchekewis to take charge of the fire.
Two of these were men and two women.
They were always married persons; but
the wives of the men employed in this
service were required 10 cook and do the
necessary domestic work, while the hus-
bands of the women destined TO the sa-
cred duty were always engaged in hunt
ing and providing whatever else was
wanted. The four persons devoted to
the altar were thus left without any Sec
ular cares to divert their attention from
the holy trust committed to them. A
perpetual succession was kept up in this
priesthood by prerogative Of the
Mutchekewis. and the principal head
women. the former selecting husband,
and the latter wife for the survivor.
whenever any OF these eight persons
died The chain was thus always I'M
broken. and the traditionary rights
transmitted unimpaired. Death was
The penalty for any neglect of duty. and
always inflicted without delay and with
out mercy. The council fires were
