A Winter Tomb.

1t is strange to see a tomb made in a
tree-top. Such tombs, however, are
seen in the territory of small hands of
Sioux Indians in the Turtle Mountains,
Canada.
If any of their number dies in the
winter time, when the ground is frozen
SO they cannot dig grave, they place
the corpse in rough box, wrap it about
with some white cotton. and carefully
deposit it in the branches of tree, in
tending to take it down in the spring
and bury it in the earth. But they do
not always do this.
There is such tomb now but short
distance from the writer's present home.
In it is the body of an Indian boy, who
died little more than two years ago.
We pass close under it every day haul
ing logs to our mill. II is covered with
white cloth, and has pillow. or cush-
ion. placed under the head of the coffin.
There the little Indian boy is taking his
last long sleep.
1t is not q secure place In which to
take the long sleep of death. There is a
danger more dreadful than the winds.
In the autumn of the year fierce fires
sweep over these prairies and through
the scattered timber, often burning
down the largest trees. Near the roots
of this tree can already be seen the eff
fects of fire. - Youths Companion.
The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1883-02-09
His Grace. the Duke.

Many good stories are told of the ex-
periences of his grace Of Newcastle,
who is now travelling quietly in this
country. He is modest young man,
with decided dislike of notorety and
display. He seems to consider il n
jolly good joke when people slight him,
and puts UP with any amount of incon-
venience ut the hands of strangers. l
presume he INDUCES in hollow smiles
of amusement when these strangers
find out who he is, and come around to
explain things. He does not look like
an ideal nobleman. He impresses one
simply rs rather common place and
somewhat sickly-looking young Eng
lishman. When the duke went to Bal
timore, the clerk pushed the register
book toward him, stared at his clothes
and told him to pay in advance. Then
he assigned his grace to room on the
sixth story. After while somebody,
in looking over the book saw New
castle" and told the clerk. That func-
tionary ran up to the sixth story so vio-
lently that when he got there he had TO
sit down on the bed of the duke of New
castle to recover himself. Then he gave
the visitor the whole parlor floor, and
sent him some cigars. In Washington
last Sunday the Englishman thought
he would 60 to church. He was dress
ed in an ordinary tweed travelling suit.
He went to st. Johns, which is good
enough sort of a church, only it has
lost its head because of the distinction
conferred on it by the support and I'M
failing attendance of President Arthur.
The effect of this distinction on the SEX
ton has been overwhelming. Therefore,
when the quietly-dressed young man
entered the church, the sexton gazed at
his attire for moment, then thrust him
into corner and told him to wait until
the pew-holders were seated. The duke
did so. After while he asked the
sexton again II he could seat him. The
sexton said there was not q solitary seat.
Whereupon the duke went back to the
hotel. Of course, in this democratic
country, duke Is no better than any
other man, but he is certainly entitled
to ordinary civility. When the church
found out what its sexton had done it
was so mad that it fell with one accord
upon the sexton and rendered his life q
hollow mockery. Everybody went
around and apologized and the duke
said with quiet irony, ''Its of no earth
ly consequence, but, 1t seems to me
that the aristocracy of your DO asted de-
mocracy depends entirely upon clothes"
