DEER HUNTING IN THE ROCKIES.
In a Few Years There Will BE No More
BuckslSin for Moecasins and Legglns.

In a Few Years There VIII BE No More
BucksiSin for Moccasins and Leggins.
The hunting of deer in the Rockies is fast
driving them north into British America,
and in few more years our Indians will
have no more buckskins for leggins and
moccasins. Only the skin of the heavy
hided deer can be used, that of the antelope
and white tailed varieties being too tender
for long service, says The Great Divide, in
which we find the following:
The Apaches make their moccasins and
leggins in one piece, in the style of hunt
ing boots, while most of the Indians to the
north wear slippers and leggins. When
ever a deer is killed and cut up the bladder
is carefully cut away, cleaned and filled
with the brain of the animal, and the little
bag is most carefully guarded until a
stream is reached, where the hide may be
cured. The entire skin is then put into
running water and weighted down with
stones In four or five hours the soaking
has swelled it and loosed the hair at the
roots, when it is taken out and stretched
on frame, while the owner, with the aid
of a cleansed rib of the animal, scrapes it
down until the hair is rubbed off, very
much in the same manner as Overheated
horses are scraped TO remove the foam and
sweat The skin is then pulled and
stretched for three or four hours, and al
the same time oiled with the brain until
| il is perfectly dry, soft and pliable, when il
| is ready for use. When a tan color is de
srable it is soaked in an infusion of red
bark The sole of the moccasin is always
made of the raw hide of beef cattle anC
sewed to the upper with the sinews of the
] deer's tendon.

point to renewed energy, which from
the large crop of 80 is backed by more
strength.

HOUSE DECORATION.
A New Material Which Is Becoming Vastly
Popular.


Popular.
What is termed painting in gesso as
applied to house decoration, has become
exceedingly popular in England and in
France and Germany. The plastic ma
terial used, and which is fashioned with
the pencil and brush, is composed of
glycerine, plaster of Paris and a weak
solution of gum, to which a little alum
is added when a polished surface is de-
sired. 1t is employed for modelling in
relief, arabesques, objects from ma
ture, such as flowers, or human or
ideal figures. The work may be done
on the minutest or the boldest scale.
Not merely the middle wall-surface or
panels of dado or door may be thus
decorated, but boxes. screen and picture
frames or other articles. The compo-
sition is made of such a consistence
that it will yield freely to the pencil or
brush, and it maintains its elasticity
sufficiently long for the execution of
any design, admitting of any correc-
lions in the way of filling in, or produc-
ing hollows. The designs are painted,
when it hardens, either in monochrome
or a number of colors 1t sets extreme

Any color may be mixed with the COM

it would take more than night to
gather you in circles around
this altar. Then just bow where
you are for the blessing. Aged men.
this is the last church that you will ever
dedicate. May the God who comforted
Jacob the Patriarch, and Paul the aged,
make this house to you the gate of
Heaven; and when, in your old days,
you put on your spectacles to read the
hymn or the Scripture lesson, may You
get preparation for that land where
you shall no more see through glass
darkly. May the warm sunshine of
Heaven thaw the snow off your fore
heads! Men in mid-life, do you know
that this is the place where you are
going to get your fatigues rested, and
your sorrows appeased, and your souls
saved? Do you know that at this altar
your sons and daughters will take upon
themselves the vows of the Christians,
and from this place you will carry out,
some of you, your precious dead?
Between this baptismal fount and this
communion table you will have some
of the tenderest of life's experiences.
God bless you, old and young,
and middle-aged. The money you have
given to this church to-day will be, L
hope, the best financial investment you
have ever made. Your worldly invest
ments may depend upon the whims Of
the money market or the honesty of
business associates, but the money YOU
have given to the house of the Lord
shall yield you large percentages and
declare eternal dividends long after the
monday sun shall have gone out like a
spark from a smitten anvil and all the
stars are dead.
