Who ever heard Of painting in sand?
The Moki Indians understand that
species of art Two paintings of the
kind, copied accurately from the origi-
nails, have been newly placed on eXh-
bition at the National Museum. Per
hapS they might better be called moSa-
les. BEND done in sand of six different
colors on Il fiat, horizontal surface.
The colors are yellow, green, white,
black and a mixture.
Such pictures are made by Molli
priests and priostesscs on the floors of
their Subterranean chambers The six
colors stand for the cardinal points.
Yellow is the north, green is the west,
red is the south, white is the east,
black is the region above, and all col
orS signify the region below.
One of the two sand paintings is Il
copy of the kind of picture made for
the annual ceremonial of the MoFi wo-
mems festival to the Germ God, which
takes place in September. The work
of art is executed during the progress
of the secret rites. 1t represents two
figures in an elaborate frame of differ
cnt colOrs. On the left is a likeness of
La-kone-ma-na, the patroEcSS of the
affair. She is clad in white blanket.
On the right is a portrait of one of the
twin gods of war, who carries Il zig
gag of lightning in his hands
The other picture is a fac-simile of
the one made by the chief of the Fra
tcrnity of Antelopcs at the festival of
the snake dances. 1t is highly con-
ventional in it's character. Rain clouds
are represented by semi-circles. Par
allcl lines show the rain falling. -Four
odd-looking zgzag figures stand for the
lightning snakes, which are respective
ly red, green, white and yellow. The
green and white snakes are female and
the red and yellow snakes are male
Around this sand mosaic are perform
cd the weird rites of the antelope
priests, who sing songs embodying the
NEUROLOGICAL drama of the snake hero.

Dollars.

The word dollar is of German origin.
In the Middle Ages there We're a great
variety Of coins struck in Germany,
the workmanship of some being good
and of others bad, while the quantity
of silver in coins nominally of the same
denomination varied widely. One mint,
that in Joachimsthal, turned out pc
culiarly good coins and attained much
fame. 1t became the habit to make
contracts payable in coins struck at
this place, and these coins became
known as Joachimsthalcrs. This sub
sequently was contracted to thalcrS.
and from this to dollars the transition
was easy. The origin of the United
States mark for dollars is generally
supposed to be as follows: The initials
L. S. We're written one over the other.
For convenience in writing the bottom
of the U was left off, and the result
was the present symbol. - st. Louis

FLORlOA'S PITCHER PLANT.
1t Lures Insects to Diet that Prove
Fatal

1t Lures Insects to Diet that Proves
Fatal
one of the most interesting plants in
Florida is the pitcher plant, Saracenia
variolaris, which is very abundant in
some of the Southern States. Its most
remarkable qualities are its power to
Secretc Il fluid which attracts insects,
yet invariably proves fatal to them;
the poison-like character of its leaf
when once the insects enter the fluid
tube; the smoothness of the sides; and
the ease with which it digests its in
sect diet. Its most striking part is the
pitcher-like leaf, and next the style,
which spreads out into the form of an
umbrella and envelopes the whole
flower. As the plant increases in size
the sides open to form a tube and a
round hood, in which one part of the
lip of the stipule projects over the
other, which is below it. The tube,
through which the insects enter the
plant, is much larger at the apex than
the base; is round and smooth, except
a narrow pit near the opening; and
secretes fluid at the upper and open
part which insects eagerly sip Having
tasted it, they seem to become lost to
all feeling but to obtain more, and
eagerly hasten into the tube, where
sure death awaits them, it being i'm
possible for them to climb up the
smooth sides of the leaf. even if they
escaped. The fluid stands in the bot
tom of the tube, for, apparently, the
special purpose of drowning and par
TALLY digesting them. Insects usually
begin tasting the nectar near the door,
or opening, then enter and feast on
that in the interior until they seem to
become paralyzed for they loosen their
hold, tremble, and finally drop into the
mass of fluid at the bottom of the
tube. A few very cautious insects may
try to escape after having entered the
open portal, but that is rendered i'm
possible by the hood, which conceals
the outward passage, and prevents
cgrcss. The tube is too smooth to rem
der walking along it's sides possible
When the insects fall helplessly back
into the fluid at the bottom of the tube
they undergo maceration there, until
they finally become mere pulp at the
lowest part of the plant Every part
Of them is dissolved, and apparently
utilized, as nothing is elected. That
the fluid found in the pitcher plant is
not rain water, but is secrctcd by the
plant itself, becomes evident by the
fact that the opening being covered by
hood, no rain can enter the tube.
but, aside from that, it is we'll known
that the plant can secrete the fluid as
readily in dry as in wet weather, and
has been seen full. even when rain has
not fallen for weeks.

A WOman's Queer Occnnntinn

wearing shoes is my business" said
a woman the other day. ut began in

her new shoes for her by wearing
them few days. Stretching them on

tread of the foot to do that.

named fifty cents pair. There were
other woman to whom she mentioned
her idea, and about half a dozen, who
wore the same number as l do, gave
me their custom. Gradually my queer
niue business increased, so by the
time my daughters grew up l never
had to buy shoes for them or mvSelf,
ana L often employ girls outside when
my customers sizes do not fit any of

Il keep the buttons on the shoes in
addition to stretching them when new.
Il charge ten cents for putting the but
tons on, no matter how many or how
rev there may be to replace l also
brush and put shoe polish on them.
The charge for this is twenty-five
cents, and the shoes are sent to me
and called for. For years, l think, /
stood alone in the business, but now
the visiting maid includes the care of
shoes in her duties, so that, but for
