delivered mp to them, and were carried
with every mark of respect from the
representatives Of both armies -

and there came a moment Of the deep

diers stood facing the French soldiers
in the salute, and the German and the
French generals in advance stood look

had not seen each other 50 close with
weapons in their hands since they

Who ever heard Of painting in sand?
The Mski Indians understand that
species of art. Tive paintings of the
kind. copied accurately from the
originals, have been newly placed on
exhibition at the National museum.
Perhaps they might better be called

Such pictures are made By Noki

colers stand for the cardinal points.
Yellow is the north, green is the west.
red - the south, white is the east.
black is the region above, and ali col

One of the two sand paintings is a

HINTS FOR THE HOSTESS.

Don't Crowd Amusements on Your Guests,
But Leave Them Alone Sometimes.
The woman whose friends call her .
''born hostess is a person who knows
how to let her guests dispose of their
own time. She does net overwhelm
them with list of amusements all ar
ranged and planned for their pleasure,
and in which they participate or incur
her deepest displeasure. She does not
look wild-eyed and nervous all the
time you are in her house for fear you
are not enjoying yourself. She does
not hunt you down when you have gone
to your room for nap or a quiet read,
asking you if you are not dull and tired
of such stupid house and Immediately
proposing some gay and festive plan for
the evening entertainment. The true
hostess has everything studied for the
comfort of her guests, even to the quiet
in every respect, her servants are well
trained and respectable, her table is
well provided with fruits and vegeta-
bles and cream that city people love SO
well. The bedrooms have an air Of
home and refinement about them, but
do not suggest the family too agrees
sively. There are NO photographs or
portraits in the chambers, no knick-
lSnacks or personal belongings of the
hostess or her children. Everything is
fresh and dainty from the carpet to the
window curtains, and the beds, mat
tress, springs, pillows and blankets are
irreproachable. There are always
plenty of fresh towels and the hostess
puts a cake of soap in your room, al
though most guests prefer their own
particular kind. Then she always has
some airy nook where you can write
letters and read the current maya
zines and the newest spicy novels. Her
piazza is strewn with big rocking
chairs, hammocks and dainty tea
table, whore you can generally find
lemonade cup" of some cooling bev-
erage prepared for tho weary when
they come in from a long walk or
row up the lake. There are pleasure
parties on the tapis every day, drives,
sails, pienies or small dance in the
evening, but the guests are not made
to feel that if they do not attend these
parties everyone else's pleasure will be
at stake. The hostess leaves it to you
whether you care to go or not, and you
feel quite as much at your case stay
ing at home with q book and rest
full day before you as if youhad gone,
for you know you have disappointed
no enc, and you are really at lib
erty TO know your own mind when
you visit the "born hostess. "-Balti-

GATHERING SPONGES.
Two Different Methods Employed In the
Mediterranean and Around Florida.

Two Different Methods Employed In the
Mediterranean and Around Florida.
The American sponge grounds, more
correctly known as the Florida sponge
grounds, are situated along the south
ern and western coasts of that state.
The methods employed in gathering
sponges in the Mediterranean aud
around Florida are very different.
In the east divers are employed The
diver is carried down by broad fiat
slab of marble of about twenty-five
pounds weight, which he holds at arms
length in front of him and which he
uses to guide his fight. to protect his
head when he first strikes and to keep
him down when he walks on the bot
tom.
Fifteen to twenty fathoms is the av-
erage depth, while two minutes is the
usual duration of the dive Each diver
puts the sponges he pulls into net bag
that hangs from his neck. When he il
ready to ascend he jerks rope and is
quickly pulled to the surface.
In this country a sponge crew is d.
vided into twos, each pair consisting of
'sculler" and hooker" supplied
with a small yawlboat known as a
dingy. The former stands in the stern
Of the dingy and sculls it slowly and
steadily forward, being prepared to
stop it and hold it exactly in place
at moments notice from the hooker"
who, kneel;ng amidships, with the up
per half of his body projecting over
the side, scans the bottom for suitable
sponges. In order to assist in this
scanning sponge glass is used. 1t
consists Of an ordinary wooden bucket
with a glass bottom fixed in with putty.
The handle is placed around the
neck Of the hooker" while the glass
itself is placed fat upon the water
while the Rockers" head is thrust well
down into the bucket. Rs this means
he can see very small objects 1t con-
siderable depth. And he has his hands
free 30 plunge the hooked pole down
and pieroc the sponge. sometimes at a
depth of thirty-fve feet, as soon as
sighted.
After landing q catch the sponges
are beaten 10 cleanse them, afterward
they are dipped into a weak solutio. of
lime and sea water - give them the
yellow color SO well-known in the mar.
