Disadvantage of Wealth.

''The possession of great wealth has
been demoralizing to the Usage In
dians," said Mr.. O. M. Bass of Okla
homa.
every year they are getting more
worthless and more unwilling to ex-
ert themselves in any useful way.
There are only 1000 of them, but they
own over 1,000,0 1000 acres of fertile
land, have $4,000, 1000 in trust with
the government, which allows them
five per cent. interest, and have lands
leased to cattlemen and farmers that
bring them in handsome revenue.
Each family of the tribe owns over
5000 acres and about $4,000 in
money. The Indian isn't by nature
much of worker, and when he has
such soft snap as these Osages
have, it is no wonder that he degen-
crates into chronic loafer."

Il A foreign authority makes the fol.
lowing remarks about women and eat
ing: "For many years past the tiny
appetite has been out of fashion, and
girls have taken to eating so heartily,
chat it was only a question of time
'how soon the doctors would publicly
6tebuke them for eating themselves into
sbheir graves. The time has come, and
"A medical authority lays it down that
women, as rule, eat too much. OF
course, the bicycling maiden and the
gol6ng girl require more than their
Egrandmothers did to sustain them in
their arduous amusements, and with
Them the increased appetite may be
healthy, but the majority of women
bake very little active exercise, and yet
they eat almost as heartily as do their
men folk" This is serious enough
state of affairs. Perhaps if the risk
were only that Of life, women would
not change their ways in this respect.
But there is a more serious side to the
question. Overeating without exer-
else produces a muddy complexion.
That ought to settle it and bring about
ehe proper reform.

Cut off Her Hair to Buv Bread.

Recently an east London church
worker, in her daily rounds of vista
ton, went to see woman who was
living in the deepest poverty. While
they were engaged in conversation the
door was suddenly flung open and q
young girl rushed into the room, ex-
claiming, ''They won't buy it, mother!"
The visitor. turning around, noticed
that the girls head was closely shorn,
and in her hands was an abundance of
beautiful hair, which she had been un-
successfully trying to sell in order to
procure bread for her mother and her.

Fencing for Honduras.

. Tons of woven wire fencing, the
product of Pittsburg factories, will
soon find its way to Honduras, where
it will serve to establish boundaries
between the various farms of the in
habitants of Central America and act
as deterrent to the roaming of the
southerners' cattle and sheep. The
order is said to be the first of its kind
ever placed with local concern, and
the quantity wanted is reported to ex-
coed any former quantity asked for
by Central American customer.
The contract calls for about 5000
tons of the wire product, all of which
is to be shipped within three weeks
after the placing of the order.
The order is the outcome, it is re-
ported, of meeting of cattle men, held
at San Pedro last January. At this
gathering the influential and extern
sive owners of cattle and sheep re-
ported that great trouble had been ex-
perienced in keeping the cattle within
the inclosure. Several of the men,
bers of the body said that the wary
ones among the animals had lifted the
rails off the fences and thus estab-
lished an opening, through which all
the other cattle could leave and roam
the unclaimed territory to suit their
will. A radical change in the method
of fencing was, therefore, necessary,
it was decided. -Pittsburg Dispatch.

Slower and Carberry laugh, but Merrl"
vale gave furious look and stood,
white to the lips, looking after us.
"Mr. Dumps" said I, II thank you
for your confidence in me. ] deserve
tin this, at least; but it saves my
heart from breaking under this dis
grace. How shall I tell my mother?"
Don't tell her yet" said he.
"Wait. Others shall think Of you as
I do soon."
Then he went on in silence. He
took me to his own room, where he
kept bachelors hall. He made tea
for me and served me with sliced
potted beef and thin bread and butter.
And it was not until we had done
tea that he said to me, very apologet-
ically, after I had called him Mr..
Dumps:
''Mr. Forester, excuse mo, but I
am not named Dumps. That is the
name by which the young men at the
store consider it witty to call me. I
confess I could not see the wit, but it
rather hurt them than me. I saw by
your manner that you had made mis-
take. My name is Adams"
I was so much ashamed of having
used the nickname, innocently as ! did
it, that / could have cried.
But my old friend comforted me.
One day he came to me, flushed with
triumph, and took both my hands and
shook them hard, and said:
"My dear boy, it's ali right. I'd
watched before and had had a clew.
Your character is cleared. The firm
welcomes you back with regrets that
they should have suspected you, and
the real culpit is found The real cul-
pit is Mcrrivale, and Stover is his &C.
complice."
And so it really was. They had
doctored my books and meddled with
my proofs.
Iwent back to my situation and I've
got on we'll ever since; but there's
more of my story. Think of my dear
Old Dumps turning out to be my
uncle-my mothers own brother-and
neither of us guessing it.
Long ago other people had quarreled
and so separated these two, who were
always friends.
Think of the little man in the
shabby wig and coat proving to be
quite rich and going down into the
country to live with his sister for the
rest of his life.
In vacations and holidays I 60 to
see them. They are happy together,
and the little table is set with the old
china, and there is potted beef and
jelly, and I'm petted like child.
And iii my uncle's room the miniature
of the young lady hangs on the man
tle-piece as it did in his lodgings.
And once he told me it's sweet, sad
story and I knew why the quaint, old
man in the Office had a more true and
tender gallantry to women, and was a
Drawer friend and more perfect gentle
man than the young tops who grinned
at him from the high stools between
his desk and the window and gave
him the nickname of Old Dumps.

q "a Philadelphia physician says the
philadelphia Record, "has plan that
she claims will wonderfully mitigate
sehe suffering Of a man whose body
has been perforated by the modern
small calibre bullet. 1t is we'll estab-
aished that the velocity and penetrat-
sing force of these bullets are SO great
That unless they chance to strike o
bone they will pass entirely through a
mans body without his knowing it.
The physicians idea is to attach a
small wad of antiseptic cotton to the
rear of the bullet. This would be
covered by the she'll of the cartridge,
land could not interfere with the load
ing and firing. As the bullet passes
,,through a person the wad will antisep-
sticize the wound and prevent conse-
sAuent suppuration. 1t may be posi-
ssIble so nicely to adjust the adhesion of
athe wad to the bullet that as the mis-
;sile passes out it will leave the wad to
plug the hole and stop the bleeding.
ultimately thissystem might do away
with the necessity of large medical
corps, as each bullet would carry med
'sical treatment for the unfortunate it
uounded."

The Italian minister of instruction
aas issued circular to the directors of
schools, in which he complains that
instruction in domestic duties is too
much neglected in the schools for
girls, the instruction impaired being
planned, seemingly, with special ref

Seachers.

MARY, KNITTING.

When Mary sits admitting
Beside the cozy fire,
Her bending face so happy
With motherhood's desire,
1t makes the room seem holy,
A consecrated place,
With Gods smile In the freight
That fickers on her face.
Tho clicking of the needles,
The crumble Of the Goals,
Make such quiet music
For our two quiet souls!
And when the little mother
Spreads out the garments small,
The look. the touch she gives 1t
Like sanity blessings fall.
We sit until the twilight
Her snowy weaving blurs,
And in the creaking shutter
A little night-wind stirs.
Then Mary's face sinks lower
Unto the little gown,
Until she seems TO kiss 1t
Before she lays it down.
