10 visit their old lava bed friends. Ii
is about 20 years since these Indians
were brought here and placed in
charge of an agent and they have ac-
cOmpIished wonders in the way OF
civilization, education and agriculture.
The reason why they have outstripped
other Indians lies in The fact that they
were ut once made to depend on their
own resources; no annui!ies, no gov
ermment aid, and very little land. II
was ground hog case with them aud
they made the best of it. They are in
dusirious, frugal aud temperate in
their habits, neal in appearance, and
as they don't care whether the govern
ment owns the railroads or not they
have money to pay for first class re-.

have to ask anybody for a cent.

How TO saw BY"

Some boys do only what they have seen
done by somebody else; other boys, the boys
who make mark in the worl1, look at things
with their own eyes, and if a thing needs 10
be done, set about doing it. Without brag
or bluster they act as if their motto were,
What man has not done man can do" Of
one such boy the Washington Post prints a
characteristic anecdote.
A few years ago green country hoy ap-
| piled to the Superintendent of Western
| railway for work, and somewhat against the
superintendent's wish, on account of the dam
ger TO life and limb attendant upon such oc-
cupation, was given place as brakeman OF u
| freight train.
On one of his fret trips it happened that
his train met another train at a station where
the side track was not long enough to accom-
modate either of them. The conductors were
debating which train should back up to
point where they could pass, when the new
hand ventured to suggest that neither should
back that they could pass each other by
means of the short track if the thing was
managed right.
The idea excited good deal of laughter on
the part Of the old train men, but the boy
stomi his ground.
"Well. how would GU go about it ?" ask
ed one of the conductors, confident that the
idu Wouiu SOON Hnu nlmsell against stump.
The boy took up stick and traced in the
sand a diagram to illustrate his plan.
i."Good gracious" said the conductor, 81 be
lieve that will do it, .....
And it did do it. To-day every train man
in America probably knows how to saw by
two long trains on a short side track, but it
is not SO generally known that the thing was
never done until an inexperienced country
boy, who is now the manager of great rail-
way line, worked out the problem for him
self. ta

Some Things to Remember,

b. We been told, even in cultivated, intel
lectual circles, that a young woman had better
be in the kitchen or laundry than in the lab
oratory or class room of a college. "Women
should be trained" such persons say, '"to be
wives and mothers" The finger of scoIn
has bt en- lightly pointed at the mentally Gull
tivaied mothers and daughters who are un-
able 10 coo k and scrub, who cannot make a
mince pie or plum pudding. Such persons
forget with surprising facility all the cases of
in the love sick sentimentality to which they
have been trained who think too much of
possible matrimonial chances to endanger
them by scrubbing or by giving ground for
the suspicion that they cultivate any other
faculty than to apostrophize the moonlight
and to long for lover. They do not care to
remember that it is no whit better to wither
under the influence of ignorance or sentiment,
to cultivate q fondness for "gush," than to
dry up the sensibilities like book worm, or
grow rigid and priggish as pendant.
1t is as bad to stunt human nature as to
over stimulate ito stop its progress in one
way as in another. The danger is in going to
extremes. The mass of men choose the gold
en- mean, and we may trust women to avoid
extravaganza in the pursuit of learning. We
may and ought to give her every help in the
direction of life that her brothers possess. 1t
is no longer doubtful, it is plain, that what
ever other rights women should have, those
of the intellectual kingdom ought to be hers
fully and freely. She should be the judge
herself of how far she should go in exploring
the mysteries of nature and OF science.

Pats Device.

The graceful hint succeeds best. If it is
also witty, it is pretty sure to prove irresist-
able. Up one Of the long hills of County
Wicklow mare was drawing heavy load
of travellers The driver walked by her side,
trying to encourage her as she toiled slowly
and YEARLY along.
The six passengers were too busily engaged
in conversation 10 notice how slowly the car
progressed.
Presently the driver opened the door at the
rear of the car and slammed it to again.
Those inside started, but thought that he was
only assuring himself that the door was Sc
curely closed.
Again Pat opened and slammed the door.
TIE travellers inquired augrily why he had
disturbed them in that manner.
"Whist," he whispered, don't spake SO
loud-she'll over hear u.s."
"Who 7"
"The mare. Spake low" he continued,
putting his hand over his mouth and nose.
Sure I'm desavin' the crayture. Every time
she hears the door slammin' that way she
thinks one of yez is gettin' down to walk up
the hill, and that raises her sperits."
The passengers took the hint.
