: One of our State exchanges
says "a farmer who mortgages his
farm is in q bad fix. He must be a
good farmer to pay off the debt
from products raised on the farm.
But good farmers are the ones that
don't usually give mortgages, If
there is a mortgage on your farm
you are not really the owner OF the
farm, but you are in reality, for the
time being, somebody's slave, with
the privilege Of paying taxes and in
terest. Avoid the mortgage. Keep
out Of debt. Buy nothing that you
do not absolutely need. Pay cash
as you go, or do not CO.

The Original and-om

How many people know that the
Surveyor Generals Office in Minnesota
is the original Office established in the
United Statesp And yet the original,
time-worn documents are on file at the
State-House establishing that fact.
The Office was originally located by
the authority of Congress and under
commission Of George Washington at
Marietta, o., in 1897. Asthe lands be-
came disposed of and the territory be-
came partitioned OF. the Office moved
gradually westward, halted q brief
space at this place, until 1t reached u
final resting-place, many years ago, at
81. Paul, where all the records now
are. These records especially.in-
teresting to the antiquarian, covering,
- they do. the history Of land trans
actions in this country for over 100
years. Among them = autograph
letters from Warrington and Jefferson
and other Presidents, all showing the
quaint official p~hraseology Of that by.
gone day, and winding up with the pc.
culiar signature, "Your honorable and
most humbly obedient servant" There
is also among the records the first sur
veyor's chain used in the West. and &c

from the Secretary Of the Treasury,
under whose jurisdiction the Office
then was, expressing the belief that

Aleut Mummtes.

The custom of preserving or num-
n,ifying the bodies of the dead, MS for
merly practised by the natives of the
islands in Behring sea,is accounted for
very i%ngeniously by Mr.. William H.
Dali. On tho mainland. either ON the
Asiatic or American side, tho custom
In tho Chukehee peninsula, on tho
Asiatic side, there is no soil in which
to bury the dead, and cremation is inn
possible from the want of wood; hence
the natives expose their dead to the
tender mcrcics of bears, dogs and
foxes. In tho Yukon valley, Alaska,
the soils frozen hard and Excavation is
extremely difficult; but timber abounds,
and the bodies of the dead are boxed
up in wooden collins and elevated on
four posts. On the islands the soil is
not permanently frozen, and graves
might be easily dug, but woods scarce.
Here the bodies might easily be buried,
were it desirable. But, then, why
bury the dead, If there are no wild
animals to disturb the rcmainsa The
islands have no such animals, and
hence tho natives have laid their
dead away in hooks and crannies of
the rocks.
Mr.. Dali describes as follows the
method adopted by the Kaniags and
Aleuts in preserving dead bodies:
First, an opening was made in the
pelvic region, and the internal organs
removed. The cavity was then filled
with dry grass. and the body placed in
running water. This in a short time
removed most of the fatty portions,
leaving only the skin, bones, and mus
cles. The knees were then brought up
to the chin, and tire whole body secured
as compactly as possible by cords.
The bones of the arms were sometimes
broken to facilitate the process of COM
preston. The remains were then dried.
When thoroughly dried, the cords
were removed, and the body usually
wrapped in a shirt made of the skin Of
aquatic birds, with the feathers on;
oyer this is wrapped pieces of mating,
varying from coarse to exceedingly
fine. Over this sometimes q water.
proof material, made from the split in.
test;nes Of the sea-lion. sewed together
was placed. Outside of this were usual.
" the skins of the sea-otter, or othel
fur-animals, and the whole was secured
in a ease of seal-skins, coarse mating,
or similar material, secured firmly by
cords, and SO arranged as to be capable
Of suspensiOn.
