The New York tourney displayed in use the

Two Noted Women at Odds.

Now it is said that Mrs. Kendall, the Eng

singer, are on bad terms. At eay rate they
are using harsh talk about each other while

Patti: Mrs. Kendall makes trade mark of

He rode in an immigrants sleeping car, to
be sure. but the seats had been arranged
Is for a bed, and on them he sat
with his feet under him, tailor fashion,
while two Of his "head men" sat in front
Of him and others stood close by in the
passage. "Crowfoot' is the English word
for his long Indian name, and he is widely
famous by his English name as the chief
of a numerous and once fierce tribe. He
was well worth seeing. He wore cloak
of buckskin literally covered with really
beautiful embroidery in beads of bright
hUes. His short trousers were hidden, but
below them were deerskin leggings fringed
with colored wisps of the hair of some wild
animal His leather moccasins were worked
all over with quaint designs in beads, and
above his queer hat-a "stovepipe" hat
with the top torn out-was proud plume
of eagle feathers.
Crowfoot is 50 years old. He has the COM
plexion of old mahogany, and his face is as
wrinkled as a nutmeg; but if you are
good judge Of faces you will see by his por-
trait that he has finely formed, almost
purely Roman, countenance- face that
reminds US of some Of the Caesars who ruled
Rome in It's glory. The portrait shows the
countenance of the old savage in repose,
and one sees a hint of cruelty in the feat
ures; but on that day when we saw him in
the cars he was full of fun, and good ma
ture, you know, is a great helper toward
good looks.
But the writer who describes old Crow
foot adds that the boys would be disap-
pointed If they could see the Indians in
Canada, where the savages are more. near
ly like what they were a hundred years
ago than are our Indians in the United
States. Except in the case of old Crowfoot
he saw no dignity, no grandeur, no splen-
did costumes. no pride. They are in fact
lot of lazy, idle vagabonds rapidly dying of
starvation and bad habits.

arms Of France. At first the French flag
had many fleurs-delys. But Henry II,
one of the greatest Of the French kings,
changed it. lie put his own family shield,
three golden fleurs-de-Iys on blue ground,
in place Of the many fieurs-de-lys. 1t was a
very beautiful flag. This, of course, was
the old French flag. The modern flag is
tTicolor, red, white and blue, in equal
stripes running across it.
The deur-delys is carved upon palaces

It is not only wise but happy thing to
make the best of life, and always look on
the bright side for ones own sake, but it is
a blessing to others. a little sermon on
this subject was Unconsciously preached
by child one day, which Examiner tells
as follows:
A man met little fellow on the road
carrying basket of black berries, and said
to him, Sammy, where did you get such
nice berries?"
''Over there, sir, in the .briers!'
"WOn't your mother be glad to see you
come home with basketful of such nice,
ripe fruit?"

seems glad when / hold up the berries, and
I don't tell her anything about the briers
in my feet"
The man rode on. Sammy's remarks had
given him lesson, and he resolved that
henceforth he would try to hold up the
berries and say nothing about the briers.
