chief. Black Hawk wanted to hand the
chieftainship over to his son, and the
older and more conservative members Of
the tribe supported him. But Green
Cloud, backed by the younger and reck-
less element, wanted to be chief. For
years the feud was so bitter that had it
not been for Mr.. Roddy open hostilities
would have been begun.
AS it was, Black Hawks son was
murdered about two years ago. Jim
Swallow, one Of Green Clouds braves,
was arrested and tried for the murder,
but was not convicted. Since then the
old chief has been aging rapidly, and at
the last meeting Of the council he re-
signed, only asking that he be allowed
to die in peace. Mr.. Roddy was sug-
gested as chief, and both factions united
on him for the office. Chief Roddy is
about 40 years old. He will never lead
his tribe out on the warpath, but his
duties will be those of judge and
counsellor

Did it Ever Strike You That There Mus

How old look " Is what women say

The passing years are not what make
the average woman grow old in looks, but
the condition of nerve weakness, poor

fifty preserve the youthful appearance OF
twenty-five. The average woman of to-
day, however, appears old at thirty, with
dull, hollow-ringed eyes, thin, pinched
pale checks, sallow complexion, dark OF
bloodless lips, the face lined, and the ex.
