are scarcely more than spider web OF
lace, and the delicate color OF her flesh
peeps through, telling a man that q

OF course. the girl of to-day is
too sensible and too athletic to be suited
with anything a. delicate - this during

A Wonderful Little Beast When Moving
Day Comes.
The travaux pony furnishes the solo
means Of transportation Of the Indian
camp. except sometimes a dog hitched
to diminutive tranieau. and, weight
for weight, drags on his tepee poles
moro than the best mule in Uncle
Sans service does on an army wagon.
When camp is broken the squaws strip
the tent poles of their buffalo skin COW
erings. and il is these poles which fur
nish the wheels of the Indian vehicle.
Tho Blackfoot makes the neatest
pack saddles The pony is fitted with
n huge leather bag, heavily fringed,
and gaudy with red and blue flannel
strips and beads of many colors- Over
this goes the pack saddle, which is not
very dissimilar to the riding saddle, and
has perpendicular pommel and cantle;
and In the pommel is q notch TO receive
one end Of the tepee poles. which are
sometimes bound together two or three
on each side. and trailing past either
flank Of the pony, are held in place by
two pieces of wood dashed TO the poles
Just behind his tail In the socket so
made rides the parfieche. a sort of raw
hide trunk, and this receives the camp
utensils, plumber, child, en-, sometimes
an old man or woman. puppies and all
the other camp impedi menta; while q

the pony. indifferently astridc or side

while q second may be decked with the

at an awk ward moment.
He said that he wanted the com.
mittee to understand that he was en-,
tirely in it's hands, but still he be.
lieved under the circumstances some
one from an uncontested ward should
be chosen for the chairnanship.

The election for delegates

passed off quietly. Only in Alexan.

the selection was made by mass meet.

man of said meeting. We learn that
in several places where the delegates
were selected that the action was quite
unfair. No one is to blame for this
but the Parish Executive Committee.
They are the ones who fixed the man.

their shoulders should rest this grea,

have been avoided. And we are oi
