One of the most curious and widespread
of all popular delusions is that which re-
lates to the supposed steady determination
of the Indians of North America before
the march of civilization. 1t was an officer
of the bureau of ethnology at Washington
who made this remark. "As a matter of
fact" he added, ''the Indians are probably
more numerous on this continent today
than they have ever been in the past. and
they are steadily increasing in numbers
from year to year. There are now in the
United States 2G5, 900 Indians. When Co
lumbus landed they were almost undoubt-
eddy of less number. The Indians of the
time lived altogether by the chase. Under
such conditions an enormous extent of ter
rltory is necessary to supply a tribe with
food. Each tribe, as things were then.
ranged over great eXpanse appropriated
to its own use in the pursuit of game and
fish. Between one tribes hunting ground
and that of another was always an extern
sive dividing strip. The whole country
mapped out in this way could not sustain
more than small population. There is
the best possible reason for believing that
two centuries and half ago, in what is
now the United States east of the Miss
issippi, the Indians did not altogether ex-

be transmitted to and from the seat OF war.
1t so happened that, although the then
dominant party who opposed Gen. Scott
succeeded in securing his removal from the
command OF the army, the order to that
effect did not reach him until after the City
of Mexico had capitulated.
1t is needless to state that the hero Of this

however, this one remark:

They Met at Last.

That there should be two men
looking alike is not Extraordinary:
but here is an instance of two men,
conspicuous for their size, who with
out the others knowledge, and even
without having seen each other, dress
SO nearly alike, wear boards so nearly
alike, and altogether resemble each
other SO entirely as to deceive their
intimate friends. One is Prof.
Thomas j. Charlton of the Plainfeld
Reform school (already called "gov-
ernor' by some of his friends); the
other is Mr.. Frank Miller of Marshall.
III, Until a few days ago these two
gentlemen never saw each other, but
each has had frequent occasion to
hear OF the other. For instance,
Prof, Charlton was in Terre Haute
the other day. He carried cane
under his arm and was walking to-
ward the n ilroad station. Some
body came up behind him, slipped
the cane from him and with mock
bravado walked on past him. He
was a total stranger to Charlton, and
the latter knew that he had been mis-
taken again for the big man from the
neighboring town of Marshall.
"Hold on there, Pm not Frank
Miller" he called on to the merry
maker.
"Then you must be Prof. Charlton,
for everybody says you and he are
like two peas, except in size. But I
beg your pardon for what must have
seemed like impertinence. l really
took you for Frank Miller, who has
been my personal friend for twenty
years.
Some days after that the Plainfeld
superintendent wds on railroad
train. The train stopped at sta
ton, and as he looked through the
window he imagined it turned into a
looking glass. Before him was his
own image. The Plaintield man and
his Marshall likeness at last stood
face to face.
"Come in here, sir: you must be
Frank Miller of Marshall" said the
Plainfelder.
M'm glad to see you at last" replied
Miller. "You need no introduction,
for I've been mistaken for you a score
; of times" He came in and sat down
in an adjoining seat-much to the en-
tertainment Of the passengers, and
to the delight Of himself and com
panion at having come together

weeks, when one evening he resolved
to kiss her, and told her so.

iously good at Chopin but reveled
also in Greig and Tschaikowsky and
other of the we1rdly fascinating
Northern composers. Everybody
listened, a thing which seldom hap

In an elcove stood two women.
One belonged to an old New York
family. She was quietly adored by
the nouveau richie. But she was a
woman of such unassuming character
that assertion was impossible to her.
Bred in the aristocratic set, and
habituated to her environment, she
took things for granted that other
women were disagreeably conscious
OF. The woman beside her was by
some cheerful affinity her close friend,
but she had a humber station in the
world. She was a teacher, the head
OF a department in a gra amman school.
A woman of grace and refinement,
distinguished in carriage, she was as
much at home as any woman in the
room.
The woman at the piano finished
playing something by Heller amid the
fluffy patter OF gloved hands.
"Charming!" exclaimed the teacher.
""How delightfrl'she is!' added the
other woman in tie aloove.
"Does she teach?" asked the first
speaker.
.,Oh, no." came the reply, "she's a
lady"
The teachers face scarcely changed,
but her friend, from whom the remark
slipped in the most involuntary way,
had scarcely pronouced the last word
when she flushed to her temples. She
clutched her companions arm in the
most painful embarrassment. For.

Envelopes and Stamps,

Some people have an idea that the
Government redee1ns postage stamps
when from any cause they become
unfit for use or are difficult to use.
Frequently sheets ofstamps are stuck
together, or are torn or injured. The
loss, if any, falls upon the owner, as
the Government refuses to assume
any responsibility of stamps when
once sold. The agents of the Govern
ment. the postmasters, can redeem
stamps which they have for sale, if
through any accident they become
unfit for use. But when the citizen
buys a stamp he either uses it in the
legitimate way or else he is out the
value of the stump.
The government, however, redeems
stamped envelopes. If one should,
happen to be misdirected or should
become blotted, or for any reason a
person should wish to tear open a
stamped envelope after he had sealed
it for mailing, he can bring it to the
posCOlnce ana get Drand-neW enve-
lopein it's place. The reason for this
difference in the treatment of the ad-
hesive stamp and stamped envelope
is that the adhensive stamp can be
used and then washed and passed as
good, unless careful scrutiny is
made. If the government, should
begin the practice of redeeming ad-
hensive stamps, the opportunities
or fraud would be increased. Then
the adhensive stamps are manutac-
tured at cost to the Government.
which the stamped envelope is not.
The stamps are furnished to the pub
lie at the value, and out of this has
to come the cost of manufacture, but
inthe case of stamped envelopes they
are sold at their face value, plus
the cost of manufacture. Washing

Philadelphia Times.
The other day a gentleman came
to a well-known dentist, suffering
from a front tooth. Although it
showed no decay it had to be pulled.
Around the root was found firmly
coiled a little rubber band such as
are used to fasten papers. Then the
gentleman remembered the explana-
ton OF his sleepless nights and long
period of agony. A month or more
ago his little daughter was playing
on his lap and had rubber band
which she playfully fastened in his
teeth. 1t had been allowed to re-
main without his knowing it and
