THE MITCHELL CAPITAL.
FRIDAY. DECEMBER 10. 1902.

"Few white me know how to trade
with an Indian" remarked q Dcnye9
man who has made a study Of Indians
for ten years past. Il once met an IN
ldian with Il magnificent mountain lien
lskin. He was willing to part with the
ornament. but his price was too high.
4 offered him $3.50. but he Indignantly
refused. Later, on the same day. after
L had learned to trade with an Indian.
I bought the skin for $3.50.
"The secret of trading with the In
dian is to appear Indifferent. The most
successful trader is the one who goes
with a supply of the same article he is
most DESTROYS of buying. The Indian
sees that the stranger has had expert
ence, and negotiations are carried on
upon a strictly business basis. An In
dian refused $40 for a bow and arrow.
1t was bought for 81 by a nan who
carried several bows and arrows in his
hand. This willy individual leased the
supply from a store in order to i'm
press his copper colored friends, and
The succeeded.
""The Indian" said the speaker. tell
ing of traits of character he has OBJ
most faithful followers in the world
if he has confidence in you. If he takes
a liking to you, there is nothing you
can ask he will not do. If he dislikeS
you, the less you have to do with that
Indian the better."- Rocky Mountain

THE BUYING SEASON
he Time of Buying Christmas Pres
ents and Making Ones Friends
Happy is Here.

just now the average person is
making the round of the various
stores in the city to see what they
can find for a suitable or appropriate
Christmas present. The prosperity
of the past year is making an easy
road to the Christmas goods counter.
The trade is fairly starting in and
for the next week the business will
doubtless increase very fast. 1t is no
matter if there is a scarcity of hard
coal and though it may be a little
higher than in former years, it does
not lessen the desire for the remem-
bran"e of the happiest season of the
year.
And the stores how we'll they are
prepared to supply the demand for
Christmas goods. They + trimmed

heart glow With happiness to enter
into them and look through the
myriads of presents that will 60 to

experienced in the purchase of Christ

start in a week before hand and look

making the purchases, and in a great

bids fair to be very good indeed.

Cold Feet.

Cold feet are a sign of disordered cir
eulation. Continual warming with ar
tifcial heat is but temporizing with
the evil, and the difficulty should be
overcome by proper dressing when that
is in fault and by foot and ankle exer-
cises. The latter can be taken at fire.
quent intervals during the day, and
they will assist in stimulating the Cir
culation Of the blood. Point the toes
down to the extreme limit till you feel
the muscles strain over the ankles and
work the feet up and down eight or
ten times; then devitalize them and
shake them from the ankle, as one
does the hand with a loose wrist. Suf-
ferers from cold feet in bed can quickly
warm them by this exercise, and it
will bring relief and comfort during
q long ride.

BAD FIRE AT HURON
Business Buildings in the Heart of
the City Took Fire Wednes-
day Evening.

Word was received here Thursday
of "a disastrous fire which occurred
at Huron Wednesday evening. 1t IS
understood that the fire originated
in the Grand opera house building,
and although the city fire department
was assisted by the department of
the Northwestern railroad it was
impossible to check the flames before
they had spread to adjoining build
ings. The fact that there was a large
quantity of snow on the roofs Of
near by buildings served as a protec-
ton to some extent of other build
ings. The opera house building was
valued at 500, OOG but there was very
little insurance on it, as the prop
ertY was being sold and the in
surance had heen allowed to lapse on
that account. Mitchell extends it's
sympathy to Huron in the loss of so
much property.

Alsntian Egg Women,

A favorite trick Of Alsatian market
women is to place six or eight adde's
cent eggs in a small basket and to de-
clare that those are all the absolutely
fresh ones they have. The victim buys
them, thinking that if he woman were
dishonest she would have offered more
rfresh eggs" Afterward the market
woman takes six or more out of a lar
ger basket which is carefully covered
over.

On Sunday Miss Sim went to
junction City to visit a cousin. Mr..
Elliott happened to be at Junction
City at the time. He called to see
her at the home OF her cousin. She
gave him to understand that her
father was violently opposed to her
meeting Mr.. Elliott on the grounds
that he was not her social equal. A
young man Of Junction City who
played the role Of friend to Miss
Sims appeared on the scene and be-
gan to intimate trouble. At Mr..
Elliott's suggestion the couple came
to Abilene on Tuesday, where they
we're married.

He Knows Gillett's Story.

A letter from Chihuahua to the
Wichita Eagle says: An American
well known In Kansas is also much
heard OF. This man is Grant Gillett.
He is not at this Mexican Ciudad
now but is in the mountains at a
mining camp. A story, character
istic Of this former Kansan, is told by
another kansan. Gillett talks little,
aid when he does, be continually
glances behind him as though he ex.
pected some one to be about to strike
him. His reputation In Chihuahua
and vicinity can be judged from an
interview which the representative Of
the Eagle had with Governor
Ahumada. When asked il he knew
Grant Gillett he said "No" but with a
laugh remarked that he knew the
"whole story"
