Healing Waters Of The Vest.

Two hundred and %ifty-nine years
ago, says Indian tradition, an epidemic
of great violence attacked all of the
Indian tribes of North America, and
it soon became manifest that the
whole race would become extinct if
the fell destroyer was not arrested.
The great medicine men exerted all
their skill and power, both with medi-
cines and i~ncantations, but without
avail. The healing qualities of min
eral waters had long been known to
the Indians, and they resorted to the
waters of the east and south in their
dire distress, but with little success.
At this period OF their great affection,
when their ranks had been decimated.
when hope was almost extinguished, a
messenger arrived from the great west
with news of a wonderful water which
he said had been touched by the finger
of the great spirit, and that this water
would cure all manner cf disease.
With the same eagerness that the peo-
pie of all ages have seized upon a
dernier resort for ills, the Indians &C
cepted the hope. and repaired by
thousands to these most wonderful
waters, and were saved. From that
time these waters have been the great
resort for the Indians. 1t is a we'll
known fact in the west that the In
dians to this day believe that the
Black hills of Dakota are the abode
of the great Spirits. Paul Pioneer

A REGULAR BOY.

Fe was not at all particular
To keep the perpendicular
While walking for he either skipped or
Jumped,
He stood upon his head awhile.
And when he went to bed awhile,
He dove among the pillows, which he
thumped.
He never could keep still a bit;
The Iookers-on thought i'll Of it;
he balanced on his ear the kitchen broom;
And did some neat trapeZihg,
Which was wonderfully pleasing,
On every peg in grandpa's harness room.
From absolute inanity,
The cat approached insanity
To see him slide the baunisters, so rash
But once on that mahogany,
While trying to tObOggan, he,
Upset his calculations with a crash!
And since that bad disaster
He has gone about in plaster
Not of Paris, like a nice Italian toy;
But the kind the doctor uses,
When the bumps and cuts and bruises
Overcome a little regular live boy.

Boys Not Admitted"
BY n. =. y.

-
This notice was posted a. the entrance
of an attractive tennis court, in a certain
pleasant CITY Of the big village order.
Four well-dressed boys were tattening
themselves against the ratings, as discon-
ISOLATE as so many Ieris at 1.-THE gate Of Eden.
S'pOse they stick that up outside of
heaven, " Guoth one OF the four. Boys
amt wanted anywhere. Mother sent me
out # the house, AMI Bridget sent me out
of the yard, and the old cop sent me and
my ball off the sidewalk. Ihate vacation.
What's a fellow to do with it anyhow
A dapper young gentleman, about to en-
ter the court, paused to make an improv-
ing comment upon whathe had overheard.
Rob, my friehd," said he, 'if boys
would avoid being noisy and ag .~ressiye,
or in the way of their elders, they would
not be, as they are in a measure, ostra-
cised.
s,Bettar measure his own size-shrimpr'
muttered one of Rob's chums. ''Come on
to Smiths billiard place, he'll let us in.
Come, who cares?
A young lady in Eden had heard all
that passed without the gate /. She turned
quickly as the dapper y0ung mar APP
preached her, cap in one hand, racket in
the other.
s.How could you go and preach to those
little chaps?" was her unexpected greet
inc. sVThey want something to do, and
what wonder"
aBoys are a prob EN-, 2 was the reply.
''Why doesn t somebody suggest keeping
them In barrels till they are eighteen, feed
ing and educating the through the bung-
hole? Not a bad idea"
II would keep them at large till that
age and then barrel them" retorted the
girl. Not noisy or in the way, dread
full little n%onentities you'd make Of Soss.
| One would think that they had no light
to be, that they should he born with
moastaches. Give them room and fair
play, and occnpa ion, and boys are per-
fectIy charming. Robi Robbie Austinlp
! she called, running to the gate.
Just then the man in charge OF the
court was shooting or the boys, scoId-
ing Rob particularly because ais he yaeil-
lated ab ut going to Smiths. he dug his
shoes into the fresh gravel Of the walk.
at the sound OF Miss Mabel's bright tones
the quartette turned. t'Boys, = she said,
twill you do me a favor?''
.sYes, yes, !, in full chorus.
..Welln-eollecting her wits, there
are lots Il daisies out on the South road.
l should like several large punches with
long stems, and some ferns. Don't so
without asking your mothers, but IL they
/ say yes, and yCu take the flowers to my
! house, You can stop and play cr0Qnet as
long as You like. 4ou will be as good as
pie, and won't dig up the turf, l know.
Thank you, and goodbye.
Tou are the queercst girl ever saw;
What were you saying to those boyss du-
manded Rob's big sister.

physicians of the town were Immediately
Immediately summoned.
Two persons were killed and eight serious
