wOkKs AMONG RED MEN.
Ehite Woman Who Travels without
Fear and Alone i'm the. In.
terests of Education.

One OF the bravest and best workers
or the civilizing of the Indians on the
eservations is a white woman. Her
lame is Estelle Reel, she halls from
Wyoming and she holds the important
position of superintendent of Indian
ichools for the United States, says the
Washington Star. Miss Reel is young
woman OF attractive personality and
,reat courage. She travels alone among
he Indians in the remotest and widest
PARTS of the country. The fiercest-look-
ng brave has no power to brighten her,
ind her dauntless pluck has naturally
won the Indians respect and esteem as
iothing else would have done.
The young superintendent is perform
ng her work in manner which reflects
:redit on womanhood. AS a result o
marked improvement is noticeable in
he education of the Indian all over the
country. Each year Miss Reel travels
rom coast to coast to study the various
needs OF the reservation schools and
compare their results with other schools
more settled districts During her
irst year Of Office she Travelled seven
months, becoming acquainted with the
various tribes and the methods used in
:ivilizing them. Much of the distance

argely due to her personal observation

DRY.
Congress has faculty of appropriate
ng money for Indian schools without
definite idea of where they are to be
coated. The representative in Wash
ngton knows little or nothing of the
wilds of Arizona. Another reason for
The inaccessibility of the schools is that
they are frequently established near
reservations for which the Indian pur-
posely chose remote locations. Miss
Reel often travels through parts of the
country where there is not even wagon
road.
Her most perilous journey is up the
Colorado river. She is obliged to board
barge and take two days journey
On the river, accompanied only by two
Indians. Teachers who have come a
.ong distance from the east protest that
they cannot go when they get this far,

are her friends, and never feels the
slightest fear of them.
Isolation from railroads makes Miss
Reels visit an event in any Indian
school, especially as she carries with her
a whole pharmacopoeia of medicine.
This is intended for the teachers and
scholars, to whom she is doctor and
nurse.

SOME USES OF BORAX.
Serves Instead of Soap In Cleansing
Handkerchief and Fine
Fabrics.

In sudden hoarseness or loss of voice
from colds relief may be obtained by dis
solving and partially swallowing lump
of borax the size of pea, says Woman's
Home Companion. Borax may be busted
on a scald or wet burned surface. 1t is
nice for cleaning the teeth and to sweet
en- the breath. and little added to hard
water renders it much nicer for bathing
purposes. Equal parts of powdered or
ris root, borax, prepared chalk and one
sixth as much soap make a fine denti-
frice. There is no better remedy for
dapSTdif than a wash of one ounce each
of borax and camphor to ~ pints of
cold water. Scurf may be removed from
the baby's head by rubbing on little
borax, and then washing with soap and
water. Use one tablespoonful of borax
to one gallon of water for washing WOOL
en- fabrics; 1t makes a better lather
when dissolved in hot water. For wash
ing silk handkerchiefs and gloves borax
may be used instead of soap. 1t is also
nice for cleaning hairbrushes. When
meat is ready to hang up. wash it in wa
ter as hot as you can bear it on your
hands, then carefully cover the flesh
side with powdered borax. and you will
not be trouble with bugs or worms.

SHIRT WAIST SUGGESTIONS.
by the Intending Purchaser
of the Garment.

"a woman should buy her shirt
waists, standing up, and before full
ength mirror" declared the head of
/. shirt waist department, according
the Brooklyn Eagle.
And she should try them on be-
ore buying.

"The woman who tries on her shirt
waists in the store never brings them
back to be exchanged; and 1t is very
-arely that shirt waist that is tried

satisfaction. We have made many per-
nanent customers simply by insisting

who runs true of a measure. And
there are a great many of this de-
scription.
But the most important reason is
that women never know how they

it on. And not only must they put 1t

Tomato BisQue.

Stew one pint of canned tomatoes, OF
use fresh tomatoes, with bit of bay
leaf and tablespoonful of chopped
onion for ten minutes. Scald 11s pints
of milk in double boiler and thicken
with four level tablespoonful of flour
and two level tablespoonful of butter.
Dissolve one-quarter level teaspoonful
of soda in a little cold water and stir
into the tomato, add salt to season, then
add the thickened milk and serve at once,
because the soup will curdle if it remains
over the fire after the milk has been
added to the tomato.-Detroit Free

BULLFINCH AND CANARY.
The Latter Bird Can BE Trained to
Initiate the Other
SOnEster.

That bullfinch can be trained to
pipe whole tune, or more, to perfec-
tion-that is to say, do it, so far as
information and rhythm are concerned.
As we'll as any skilled musician
everybody knows. 1t is also a fact
:hough perhaps less common, that a
canary, placed IN an adjoining room
and hearing the tune of such a piping
oullfnch over and over again, may,
quite by himself, i. e., without being
Tained for it, acquire the same ac-
,omplishment to the minutest detail.
My sister possesses an old bullflnch
which pipes, among other tunes, God
Save the King" beautifully, even en-
oellishing it now and then with some
charming little grace notes, says a
writer in Nature. For some time he
was the only bird in the house, until,
about year ago, my sister received
the present of 4 canary bird, a lovely
but unframed scngster, singing, as
they say in Germany, "as his beak was
grown"
The cages containing the two birds
stood in two adjoining rooms. At first
one Of the birds would be silent when
the other was singing. Gradually,
however, the young canary bird began
to initiate the tune of the bullfinch,
trying more and more of 1t at a
time, until after nearly years study
he had completely mastered it and
could pipe it quite independently by
himself AS I said before, this, in a
canary bird, though a rare accom-
plishment, is nothing extraordinary
or unheard of.
When the bullfinch, as sometimes
happened, would, after the first half
of the tune, stop little longer than
the rhythm of the melody warranted,
the canary would take up the tune
where the bullfinch had stopped and
properly finish it.

If you are your own laundress learn to

not feel that knit underwear, stockings

reading book, taking ride or making

ALA BAM a.
Tavlor Shot to Death.

Montgomery, Ala. June 22.-(Special)-
Tonight about 9 o'clock Deputy United
States Marshal Byron Trammel shot and
killed Charles Taylor. of Roanoke. Ala.
The shooting took place In front of the
Exchange hotel where there was a
large crowd, and it is miraculous that
many were not killed or wounded.
1t is said that the shooting was caused
by some hard feeling existing between
the two about Taylors going into bank
ruptcy some time ago At the time he
owed Tramme Bros, of Roanoke, of
which firm Byron Trammel was a mem
Der, a large sum and settled with all
his creditors except this firm.
Taylor was ordered to appear in court
about his action, but skipped to Paris,
Tex, and assumed another name. Some
time ago his brother shot man there
and Charles Taylor was arrested as an
accomplice. Then his identity was made
known.
