MEDICINE MEMS LORE.
INDIAN ART OF CoAIPOUNDING HERBS
SECRET FORMULA KNOWN ONLY
TO ONE MAN

Mrs Harriet Maxwell Converse. honorary chief
OF the LroQuois Indians who has Just returned from
council meeting OF that tribe at Cattaraugus. has
succeeded in inducing the Indians to make their
knowledge Of herbs Of financial use by preparing
thelr medicines Tor sale. AS honorary chief. Mrs.
Converse attends the council twice year and IS
member Of the secret medicine society. which
sits IN the lodge four times year-when straw
berries 1pen when the deer puts its summer
coat, when the last fruit IS ripe, and when the
deer puts It's winter coat. This society exists
IN every North American Indian tribe
heretofore the Indians have steadfastly refused
to make their medicines for sale to the white peo-
pie. but Mrs. Converse thinks that the opening OF
new industry among them is Of great Importance
IN their future development Their medical tormu-
las are unwrtteu and are passed down orally from
generation to generation.
1he indians gather just enough OF the barks and
roots for their own requirements The gathering OF
these herbs is matter almost OF instinct with
them The Indian child knows lust what TO do for
q cut or the sting Of a bee The little ones even
OF the almost civilized tribes are taken into the
"ooos every spring and fall and taught the values
and distinguishing characteristics Of the medicinal
herbs The Indians have one medicine whose in
gradients said TO be known by only one person
now Hving-a white haired old medicine man on
the Auegany reservation This is known as the
chief was one dark nrb4 s says , th4 al an oads
by the Great Spirit and directed TO gather certain

the Great Spirit these constituted the secret med
lcine- That favored chief down the
formula but kept il in his mind until he grew old,
When he made IL known TO his SON and thus has
II come down 10 the present time.
II Is thought by many distant tribes that the
secret OF making this medicine is lost, and Mrs.
Converse says that undoubtedly none has been
made for a century There is about pound re-
naming OF the quantity then made. but sparing-
y IS II used that IL Is expected 10 for forty
or tlfty years II IS in the form of powder, and
is kept in bags made Of the ears Of deer. The
medicine chief OF the Cattaraugus reservation has
a Few ounces. The pOssessor Of the secret formula
IS supposed TO give II his 1r0bable successor
when he feels that his life is nearly ended.
Another secret OF theirs IS the preparation Of
parched corn. Their runners in old times lived on
II exclusively on their journeys and found q small
portion sufficient for their longest runs that often
covered days. They carried perhaps a pound Of
Il IN little pouch around the waist, and when hun
CRY would mix a tiny ball OF It with water from
spring or river throw il into the mouth and
The tribe IS have an exhibit al the Pan

RIDICULOUS OPTTMIST.
There was once a man who smiled
Because the day was bright:
Because he slept at night;
Because God gave him sight
To gaze upon his child!
Because his little one
Could leap and laugh and run.
Beca use the distant sun
Smiled on the earth, he smiled
He smiled because the sky
Was high above his head;
Because the rose was red:
Because the past was dead
He never wondered why
The Lord had Numbered so
That all things have to go
The wrong way here below
That eVerChangtng sky.
He toiled. and stiu was glad
Because the air was free.
Because he loved and she
That claimed his love and he
Shared all the joys they had,
Because the grasses grew;
Because the sweet winds blew.
Because that he could heW
And hammer he was glad.
Because he lived he smiled.
And did not look ahead
With bitterness OF dread.
But nightly sought his bed
AS calmly as a child
And people called him mad
For being always glad
With such things as he had.
And shook their heads and smiled.
