The Indian and His Hair.

II have had considerable experience
in the somewhat unsatisfactory task of
trying to educate Indians, said Bern
ard Denton, of st. Paul There Is q
great deal of the humorous as well as
the discouraging in the work, but the
most singular point remember is the
absolute gauge OF an Indians stage OF
civilization which the condition of the
hair of his head provides. The first
thing that is dore to an Indian child
when received at the school is to wash
him, and the next Is to cut his hair.
While he remains in the school he re-
ceives ordinary attention from bar
Der, but, as rule, the moment he gets
back to his tribe he is laughed at for
cleanliness and neatness, and allows his
hair to grow uncombed and uncared
for. 1t is said that il an Indian child
keeps his hair short until he becomes
a man there is little danger of his re-
suming the blanket or other evidences
of a lack of civilization. This is a
characteristic of the Indian race and
has been spoken of as an evidence that
the tradition concerning strength in
the hair which prevailed in the days
of Samson has been handed dows by
some mysterious process to the red
man of this continent" - st. Louis
Globe-Democrat.

CHICAGO, March 24.-[Srecial. lit
was reported to-day that large sum of
money had been offered the proprietors
of the cure for the tobacco habit called
"no-to-bac," which is famous all over
the country for its wonderful effect.
This offer, il was said, was made by
parties who desire to take it off the
market and stop its sale, because of its
injury to the tobacco business. Mr.. Fl.
L. Kramer, general manager of the
no-to-b ac business, was interviewed at
his office, As Randolph street, and when
questioned, promptly said
mo, sir; no-to-bac is not for sale
to the tobacco trust. We just refused
a half million from other parties

bacco, amounting in round figures to

facturers and dealers loss is the gain
of the party taking no-to-bac. Does nc

To Make Posts Durable.

The practice of the following
method is said to greatly increase the
durability of fence posts, hop roles
and grape posts A pit is made OF
convenient size and depth and poles
and posts are set upright in it. Lime
is thrown In among the timber, and
when this pip is filed water is poured
on the lime which is Stacked, and, OF
course, generates heat by which the
water and air In the timber are
forced out and as the timber cools
afterward the lime is absorbed into
the pores of the wood. The lime has
the effect of decomposing the albu-
men of the wood, and thus prevents
its decay, to which the rotting of the
timber is chiefly due

A Strange Suit.

An Oklahoma merchant carelessly
allowed few castor beans to get mixed
with his oats. He probably thought
nothing of it at the time, and sold the
oats to a stable-keeper. Several of the
horses to which the grain was fed
sickened and died. Veterinary sur
geons said it was the result of eating
the castor beans. The stable-keerer
sued for damages and the careless
grain dealers were compelled, by order
of the court, to pay $3.50.

Growing Peas I'm Orchards.

The pea crop is a soil renovator,
with the advantage over clover for
orchards that it does not drain the
soil OF moisture during summer. but
helps rather to keep the surface
moist and easily permeable to all the
rain that falls. The pea crop gathers
nitrogen from the atmosphere, and
when the crop is fed of by hogs, the
pea vines make an excellent cheap
and rich mulch. With diet of peas
and fallen apples hogs always thrive
and the pork thus made has larger
proportion OF lean meat than has
pork made from a corn diet.
