PAINT ON INDIAN FACES.
Nearly All OF IL Means Something to
IhnHe Initiated.

The fact OF the matter is that every
paint mark on an Indians face Is a
sign with n definite meaning which
other Indians may read. When an In
dian puts on his full war paint, he
decks himself not only with his own
individual hOnors and distinctions won
by his own bravery, but also with the
special honors OF his family or tribe.
He may possess one mark OF distnc-
tion only or many. In fact, he may be
SO well off in this respect that, like
some English noblemen. he is able to
don n new distinction for every occa-
sion. Sometimes he will wear all his
honors at one time.
Among the Indian tribes is one desig
mated by the symbol OF the dOgfish,
painted in red on the face. The vari-
Gus parts OF the fish are scattered
hetcrogcncoUSly Oh the surface of the
face; the peculiarly long snout is paint
ed on the forehead, the gills are repre-
scnted by two curved lines below the
eyes. while the tail Is shown rs cut in
two and hanging from either nostril
when only one or two parts Of an ami
NAL are painted on mans face, ii -
an indication Of iufcriorty; when the
whole animal appears, even though in
many oddly assorted parts. the sign
is one OF great value and indicates a
high rank.
Very peculiar are some Of the honor
able symbols painted on the Indians
faces There are fish, flesh and fowl
OF all knds-dog salmon, dcyilhsh,
starfsh. woodpcckcrs. eagles, ravens,
wolves, bears. sea lions and sea mon
stcrs, mosquitoes. frogs, mountain
goats and all manner of foot, claw or
beak marks-each with a special mean
ing of its own.-pearson's Magazine.
