One windy, rainy morning I went to the

among the tribes Of the Umatilla reserva-
ton at the time Of their midsummer pow
WOW. I had seen him and wanted to have

over hundred years ago.
The old man was not at home. Several
young Indians lay in the dripping tepee,
stretched upon their blankets. AS started
to leave the shelter Of the wigwam one of
the young fellows rose to his elbows and
said to me:

she took a bow and wrapped the string

Inc rashion IN dogs changes so quickly

How to Reach the Sky.
From the New York World,


DR.. Hermann Won Schrotter of Vienna
predicts that aerial navigators desiring to
reach great heights will shut themselves I'D
in Theoretically sealed double walled alumni
mum and glass cages and wear masks in
which they can inhale oxygen.
The idea seems sound. There is no appa-
rent reason why the height to which an
aeronaut can ascend should not be the limit
of buoyancy Of a balloon. Hitherto the rec
ord has been held by Glaisher who rose to
a height Of $1,000 feet, more than seven
miles, or over a mile and half above the
top Of the highest mountain. That was
remarkable feat, although Glaisher was UNI
conscious and his companion nearly SO at
it's climax.
But balloons carrying scientific instru-
ments but no passengers have been known
to go as high as $1,000 feet. A man could
take such trip and be in good observ-
ing condition all the time IL he took the
precautions recommended by DIR. Won
Schrotter. Men who have to work under
water wear diving suits; such an outfit
would be just as useful for long dive into
the sky.
