Indian Scaips In Demand,

A Monroe street hair dealer; IF you know
where can get any Indian scalps | shall be
obliged to you for that information. Indian
scalps, like buffalo heads, are becoming
mighty scarce. You never can account for
peoples tastes. Now, about the last thing in
the world that some people want is an Indian
scalp, and yet there are people who want
just that sort Of curiosity. had an Indian
belt not long ago which had nine scalps hung
to it, and sold it to man on the north side
for SIS. have a bunch Of hair here-it isn't
a scalp, as there is no skin attached to it, Just
a handful, as it were. 1t is worth s.. In
dians are not scalping as much as they used
to, and that is why scalps are high In fact
everything which Indians used to make is be-
coming scarcer and more valuable. Take the
common Indian basket that used to sell for
IS a dozen, now you can't get one for that
money. There are two reasons for this. One
is that travellers buy them first hands as curl
osities and pay the Indians just what they
ask. Another reason is that since the gov
eminent has got to taking such interest in
Indians, taking care of them, the Indians are
lazier than ever and make less than former.

Americans and Mustard.

Have you ever noticed" inquired an OBJ
servant young man with whom was lunch
ing the other day, chow few Americans eat
mustardr
confessed lack of study in that direc.
ton, and he col tinued:
In England mustard is the great national
condiment. An Englishman will never eat
beef, bacon, ham, or steak without 1t, and
many OF them season mutton with 1t. An
English tramp 20 whom you gave an unsea
soned beef sand wich would stop and ask you
for mustard before be commenced to devour
1t. With Americans it Is different. They
never take mustard with beef, and rarely
with anything Else, unless 1t is very fat ham.
Americans deli &c their meat with hot Indian
and other sauces, but they let mustard alone.
My proof, say youi Ny proof is right here.
Examine every mustard cruet In this restau-
rant and you W IL find that its contents might
have been mixed ten years ago, for they look
as old as Met luselah and smell twice az

rant In this city that uses pound Of mustard

INDUSTRIAL VILLAGES.

Efforts to Re- stablish These Much Need

The society for promoting the growth of
Industrial villages has set before itself an OBJ

thize The aggregation Of men b towns and
cities has been historically the condition of
some Of the greatest and proudest achieve

although urban life has its advantages and
Is In its measure essential to the corporate
well being, it has its disadvantages also and
very grievous these disadvantages are. The
benefits are obv ious
1t needs no comprehensive survey or elabo-
rate statistics - prove that the near neigh
borhood of a town enables its denizens to CO
operate for their mutual advantage in a way
quite impossible to the jewellers in rural dis
trlcts. This is obvious to the most casual OBJ
servation, and it has been so clearly seen by
Englishmen within the last half century that
perfect rush las set In OF the rural popula-
ton into towns with the result that while
these latter havs grown with unsxampled ra-
pidity and alta ined unprecedented proper

most denuded If inhabitants, and villages.
with their domestic industries and institu-
tons, have perhhed in the shadow of colossal
neighbors
This WHOLESALE obliteration of the village
type has undoubtedly involved serious loss
to the commur ity, perhaps even a national
loss At any rate the sentiment cannot be
mistaken which has led Sir George Campbell
and his associates 10 cast about for the means
OF restoring this deserted village, and recall
ing public attention TO the possibilities OF
benefit 10 town and country alike in the pro
vision of an outlet within our own borders

The diffusion II sound views, and still more
the establishment Of sound practice, in such a
matter must bs q work Of time, and it NAV
well be that the formulated programme OF
the society will be subject 30 considerable
modification In the light of experience but
