When we look upon Indian scaven.

are here to ELL some of them. Old
clothing Of almost every kind is gath.

solitudes. Unlike white men, Indians
try to live without work. They force
their women to do the drudgery and
try their best to live like lords" So
much for the vain, useless race that Is
fast sinking beneath the waves Of
time. While we may pity them for
their i'll luck in having lost a cont,

been as weeds in the fields of America,

From Food and Health
"Dr. J. Gibbon, medical officer Of health
for the Holborn district in London, Eng

that the Jews life in London is, on the av-
erage, worth twice as many years as q
Christians. The Hebrews Of the English
metropolis are VIGOROUSLY exempt frOul the

We take this from French paper, and
