Vices Which Today
Are Attributed
to Him.

west, hating liar. tells the truth;
having been surrounded, the game
killed-exterminated uselessly-he has
no way to get living and thinks 1t
only natural that the government
which took away his opportunities for
sustenance owes him food and raiment
The government says it does. and
sends agents to look after and provide
for him. Some of the agents former
ly accepted their places with the be-
lief that they had right to rob the
very class that they were appointed to
protect. or course. not all Indian
agents were this way, but many OF
them were, and the Indian was blamed
because he refused to be treated with
the injustice that came from greed
the most cruel of all injustice-and he
grumbled and fought. The Indian Is
supposed to be selfish and brutality
those who do not know him. There Is
no human being on earth who Will
more quickly divide his last mouthful
of food with a friend. No Indian that
ever lived would crowd white-haired
old woman out of the way to get on
street car first. That sort of thing,
and everything akin to it, that is dis
courteous, may be seen among the men
of the streets of all cities. Real men
do not do such things, no more than
all Indians do beastly things than
those who do not know them suppose
they do. The Indian has not had the
benefit of laundries and porcelain
baths but he jumps into the water and
washes himself every time he has
chance. He does not live where there
are napkins and finger bowls. and he
would not know exactly which curious
little fork to use for this or that, nor
the precise manner in which he should
carry spoonful of soup to his mouth
He has not been taught these things
Neither does he guage his neighbours
responsibility by the number OF po-
MES the neighbor possesses nor does
he lie awake of nights thinking over
schemes to win his neighbours goods.
He thinks that one who is able to pay
and does not do SO Is a worse man
than he who is not able to pay. He
does not say to the former, He Is all
right because he has money, though he
does not pay just debts nor practice
deeds of charity"

SAVED BY A MONGOOSE
Its Attack on a Cobra Prevented
a Fatality.

A St. Louis man who has been en-
gagged in engineering work in India
brings home this story OF an exciting
adventure with cobra:

work and were preparing to take a
good rest. We were far from vii

n a deserted hut. We did not reach

in endeavoring to put down the rising
in Bulgaria in 1876 by means of ir-
regular Bashi-B azouks, recruited from
the most barbarous portion Of his Ash
attic dominions.
Several years afterward, at the time
that England seemed to be on the
verge of war with Russia, a small con-
tingent of Indian cavalry was brought
to Malta. which created such an out
cry and storm Of protest, even in Great
Britain, that the men were quickly
shipped back to Bombay Their visit
to Malta, however, served to remind
Continental Europe of the fact that
the military resources of England
were not restricted solely to her stand
ing army at home. and that her forces
in India must be taken into account.
This is probably all that Lord Bsacons-
field had in view when he brought the
Indian contingent to the Mediterran-

Too Much Money in steeples.

A church economist of a practical
and somewhat eccentric turn of mind
has estimated that nearly $4,000. 900
has been invested in non-productive,
non-essential and purely ornamental
church buildings in this country,
chiefly In the form Of steeples. If this
feature Of ecclesiastical architecture
were dispensed with, according to his
estimate. and the amount represented
in steeples alone turned into the regu-
lar channels Of church beneficence,
the religious denominations would be
relieved for long time to come Of
the necessity Of making frequent and
imperative demands for money for
the support Of their mission boards
and other established agencies for
promoting religious work.-Leslie's

CONCERNING DIRT.

What Is II and How to Get Rid Of 1t.
House Cleaning without soap or Water.
Not only the desire to be comfortable, but
the need of being healthy, obliges us to
make constant fight against dirt.
Now, the human body is like u house,
with this difference. The, body takes itself
down and builds itselfup continuously. As
fast as the materials composing it are worn
out, nature tries to remove them imme-
diately.
A torpid or incompetent liver fails to
take the bile acids from the blood and to
expel them from the body by way of the
bowels. It leaves them in the blood and
tissues and there they are dirt, they are
filth. They discolor the skim they make
mischief wherever they 60. They crowd
