The Indian Child.

In tepee life the Indian child is unique. It is given nothing to play with except the toads that hop about the tepee doors. It has no playmatcs except those of It's own relation, and it receives but few caresses from it's par ents. The squaw mother Is fin the habit of putting her baby to bed at dark they sleep in little sacks-then she goes away to dance or something of that nature. leaving the child to its own resources. If 1t cries, no one comes to sooth 1t. So crying has come to be almost unknown among thes, children.
