feet high, and about ten or twelve feet
square at the base. tapering toward
the top 10 about seven feet or less.
The great rock poised on the top is es-
tlmated To weigh fully ten tons. The
obelisk is known as the "Sheepeaters'
Monument" and the Indians have a
curious legend TO account for II. Many
years ago, they say, before the white
men came, the Sheepeaters were at
tackled In the valley below the shaft by
a war party Of BannOcks from the
south. The conflict ragged tercely. but

Spirit was told of the battle by the In
dians who had been killed in the fight,
and gone to the happy hunting ground.
They told the Great Spirit of the yalor-
Gus deeds of their tribe in defending
their homes, and He said that He
would build a monument on the battle
ground that should stand for all ages
as evidence of the Sheepeaters' Prov
ess. Next spring there came great
snowslide. and when the grass grew
again there stood the monument about
ten feet high, and on the top the bal

ferryboats. They are small, built Of

COOKING GREEN PEAS.

Much OF the palatahleness OF peas
depends. however. upon the cooking.
All vegetables should be carefully
cooked TO get their best havor. and
this is especially true OF peas. After
shelling. they should be thrown into
cold water for twenty minutes. and
then drained and put into kettle
OF boiling water To each half gallon
OF water used add a level teaspoonful
OF salt. Boil slowly in uncovered ves-

If people could always stop talking

The difference between a fanatic

Eenascence of the Banjo.

1t is cheering to observe that the
banjo, after a long period OF neglect

cadence Of the negro minsuels art and
in part to the advent Of tinkling mar

Jnpanese Time 1Teasures.

The Japanese divide the twenty-four
hours inco twelve periods, OF which
six belong to the night and six to the
day, their day beginning at sunrise and
ending at sunset.
Whether the day or night be long or
short there are always six periods in
each. To attain this the characters
or numerals on the scale are adjusta-
bic.
Two Of them are set, one to agree
with the sunrise, the other with the
sunset, and the four characters be-
tween them divide the space into equal
portions.
Thus, when the period Of daylight is
longer than the night, the day hours
viii be proportionately longer than
those at night.
