Sauaw's Affection.

The women Of the Indians, doomed
by the custom Of savages, are slaves.
They do all the work, and accept their
lot stOically. Two anecdotes, related
by Colonel Imam, in his "Old Santa Fe
Trail" prove that they love their tyrant
husbands and their children.
A party of United States soldiers sur
prised camp of Indians, who had
been numbering tho whites In Washing
ton Territory. Six prisoners were cap
tured. They We're allowed to take
leave of their families, and then shot.
'"The parting between the condemned
men and their young wives and chill
dren," says Colonel Inman, twas the
most perfect exhibition OF martial and
tilial love have ever seen."
During the campaign Of 1860, Col
Onel Inman. while riding with the reg.
ulars, came upon u Cheyenne lodge.
Within, on a rough platform, was a
dead warrior In full war-dress. At his
heal, on her knees, with hands clasped
in the attitude of prayer, was II squaw
frozen to death. She thus showed her
love for the man who had perhaps
beaten her a hundred times.
Chicago eagle. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1889-19??, 1898-03-26

The woman mentioned In this little
story may be called Mrs. Naughty, but
she is known in almost every commu-
nifty by other names. She is inclined
to do all she can to make other people
believe she is somebody. and that she
is fitted for higher sphere than the
one she Is forced by adverse circum.
stances TO live In.
A short time ago Mrs. Naughty call.
ed on a neighbor and accepted an in
vitation to stay to supper. Mush and
milk was the principal supper dish,
and Mrs. Naughty declared with sun.
dry calculations that she had never
eaten that delightful compound. The
steaming platter Of mush was set in
the center of the table. and bowl of
milk placed in front Of Mrs. Naughty.
"Just help yourself, Mrs. Naughty"
remarked the hostess.
Really, do not know how to be-.
GIN" said Mrs. Naughty, as she picked
up her spoon.
Mrs. Naughty made move. and one
Of the children leaned over to her
mother and whispcred:
"She said she never ate mush and
milk, but she dipped her spoon in the
milk before she dipped 1t into the
mush."
That little movement gave Mrs.
Naughty away. for every lover of
mush and milk knows that II the spoon
is first dipped into the milk the mus!l
will not stick TO It.
