waahinxton ana the indians.

More than once Washington enter
tanned Indians. Trumbuil. artist lion
of the hour. had painted full length
portrait of the president. Curious to
see the effect. Washington led a party
of full blooded Indians suddenly into
view of it. One of them advanced and
touched the painted figure. Ugh" he
grunted, with suspicion. He looked
behind to see if it were really fat; dis
covered with disgust that it was. Not
one would permit Trumbull to sketch
him. The president took an amiable
walk down Broadway with the Indians
in their savage dress, paint and feath-
ers. stateliness of civilization and saw
age stateliness contrasted. The dignity
of the unregenerate Indian was real,
and yet he was tickled like child with
this opportunity for display.-Leila

"One day" says a writer in the Bos-

year-old boy gave him two slices OF
buttered bread. telling him to give one
of them to his little sister. He carried
out the order. That night when he
went to bed he was evidently disturb
ed in his mind and remorseful about
something. and his mother questioned
him in a way to bring out the truth.
I'll wasn't nice to Peggy about
that bread and butter he owned.

take the bigger piece?
No he answered. Hers was a
little bigger than my piece was, but
mine was good deal buttererv

AN ODD TOWN IN MEXICO.
A Place where the Fashions Are the
SaAoe as Centuries Ago.


Mexico is becoming Americanized
and modernized in n deplorable de-
gree. but in the interior there are still
towns and villages not touched by the
hand of Improvement"
Tehuantepec is one of the oldest of
Mexican cities. and it Is SO far away
from the beaten track of the tourist
and trader that the olden customs and
costumes remain nearly as they were
two or three centuries ago.
The two women wear a bodice or
"camisa" of white linen, with insertion
around the neck and sleeves OF the
beautiful Mexican drawn work, which
is bordered by embroidery of red and
green. The skirt is generally bright
green. closely plated and with deep
border of brilliantly colored cloth or
white drawn work. A broad red sash,
''rebosa." is knotted around the waist
and falls nearly to the edge Of the
skirt. The costume is completed by
bright green slippers. STOCKINGS are
unknown.
The headdress is remarkable. 1t Is
called ''huipil." and is made of broad.
stifTly starched lace dounce, very full,
on n narrow yoke. The fiounce ex-
tends around the neck, as well as the
lower edge of the yoke. and is drawn
over the head and around the shoul-
ders, framing the face in a quantity de-
mure fashion.
The women are fond Of jewelry, and
especially Of long necklaces made of
gold coins. They have control of the
greater part of the business. They
throng the markets every day. some
| with native chocolate, some with flow
ers and vegetables and some with orna
ments and native cloths. They excel
in the Mexican drawn work. and deal
ers come from all the large cities tc
buy of them.
| Many Of the women are handsome In
n vivid. tropical way. They are tall ant
straight. with superb physical develop
ment. flashing brown eyes. olive skin
and red lips.-Brooklyn Eagle.

These cases have been hanging

reason to believe that the suits will

allowed to be pigeon -holed and

heretofore. There will be warm
work in these cases, and the legal

QUEER WAYS OF NATURE.
Where the Tortoise I'm n Barometer
and Flies Eat Spiders.

The tortoise is not an animal one
would naturally fix upon as likely to
be afraid OF rain. but it Is singularly
SO. Twentyfour hours or more before
rain falls the Galapagos tortoise makes
for some convenient shelter. On a
bright. clear morning when not a cloud
is to be seen. the denizens Of tortoise
farm on the African coast may some
times be seen heading for the nearest
overhanging rocks. When that hap
pens. the proprietor knows that rain
will come down during the day, and.
as a rule. 1t comes down in torrents.
The sign never fails. This pre-sensa-
ton, or whatever you may call it,
which exists in many birds and beasts
may be explained partly from the in
creasing weight of the atmosphere
when rain is forming. partly by hab-
it's of living and partly from the need
of moisture which is shared by all.
If we want to find a country where
nature has turned things topsy turvy-
that is, according to our notion-we
must go to Australia. Many things are
reversed in that country. 1t is summer
there while it is winter in America.
Trees shed their bark instead of their
leaves; fruit has the stone. or kernel,
outside; swans are black; there is q
species Of fly that kills and eats the
spider, and q fish, called the climbing
perch. that walks deliberately out OF
the water and. with the aid Of its fms
climbs the adjacent trees after the In.
sects that infest them. When to this
we add that most of the birds have nc
song and the flowers no ',rs. it ID
easily seen that it Is on the other side
of the world in more senses than one.-

Dickens: There is nothing
beautiful and good that dies and is
forgotten. An infant, prattling
child, a youth we'll taught, will
live again in the better thoughts of
those who loved it, and will play
its part. though its body be turn
ed to ashes or drowned in the deep

ded to the host of heaven but does
its blessed work ON earth in those

"Have by some surgeon, Shylock,
on thy charge to stop his wounds lest
he bleed to DEATH" People can
bleed to death. The loss of blood
weakens the body. 1t must follow
that gain of blood gives the body
strength. The Strengthening effect of
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry is in large part due to its action
on the blood making glands and the
increased supply of pure, rich blood
it produces. 1t Is only when the
blood is impoverished and impure
that disease finds a soil in which to
root. The Discovery" purifies the
blood and makes it antagonistic to
disease. When the body is emaciated
the lungs are weak, and there is OBJ
stinate lingering cough. Golden
Medical Discovery" puts the body on
q fighting footing against disease,
and so increases the vitality that dis
ease is thrown off, and physical
health perfectly and permanently re-
tored. Il has cured thousands who

had tried all other means of cure
without avail.

Little Miss Annette Levy Was Most Agree

Probably the most agreeably surpris-
ed young miss in Butte last evening
was Annette Levy, the bright little
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Sol Levy of
No IA West Park street. Annette had
just tucked away her dolls for the
night and was about to retire when in
came Dicky Long singing such funny
songs that Annette laughed and con-
cluded that it was not bedtime, not by
jugful. There was a perfect drove
of school children, each carrying a
basket. The Levy nome was turned
over to the liiputian intruders, who
made merry until midnight. Mrs. Levy
called to her assistance Mrs. W. H.
Davey and Mrs. Cassidy, and together
they managed to serve the youngsters.
