On the morning Of the second day we
were warned to hold our horses, and
had hardly secured them tightly when
in an instant at a signal, the two lines
of men and women arose to a standing
position and began tapping their blank
cts in the air. The noise was almost
deafening. The Tapping was continued
while .he Indians stood with their toes
in the water They were shaking the
evil spirits into the streams and causing
them to be carried down to the lake
and drowned. The ceremony is some

the business is over. all join in dancing
and gambling, and a season of feasting

are Catholics. but no influence can pre-

practice. Rocky Mountain News.

TRAGEDY OF ANIMAL LIFE.
Something Pathetic In the Career or
the Passenger Pigeon.

Something Pathetic In the Career or
the Passenger Pigeon.
To him who knows the story Of the
passenger pigeon this group Of beautl-
full, grayish brown birds with the iri-
descent golden sheen upon their threats
IS the last word of a tragedy Of animal
life. America was once the land of the
wild pigeon. Early American writers
are full of references to 1t. Alexander
Wilson, the father Of American ornl-
thology, estimated that flock seen by
him in 1903 contained over 100000
individuals. 1t stretched from the no.
rizon to the horizon, as far as the eye
could see, and was over four hours IN
passing a given point He saw nest
ing colony forty miles long and several
miles in width. =
In 1905 Audubon saw schooners at
the wharfs in New York loaded not IN
packages, but in bulk, with wild pl-
geons caught up the Hudson river and
sold for q cent apiece. Up to 1860 the
bird continued fairly abundant. Then
a frightful slaughter began to supply
an increased food demand. Gun, pole,
club, net and sulphur pot were en-
ployed. Thirty dozen birds were cap
tured at one spring Of the net. One
man netted 500 dozen in one day. In
the nesting season trees were shaken
or felled and wagon loads of SQUAD
taken nightly, droves Of hogs being
turned in to utilize what the hunters
had left. Wherever the distracted
tlocks appeared the slaughter began.
At the last known large pigeon nest
ing" in 1878, billion birds were killed
during the season. Like the bison, it
was effectually exterminated, showing
the terrible efficiency Of man when he
sets out Systematically in pursuit of a
lower species.-New York Post.

Nervous Dyspepsia
It's Cause and Cure

Overwork any organ and 1t gives
out-the stomach is no exception.
Ask it to digest anything, every
thing, at any time In half the time
required, and like an over driven
horse 1t balks. Nature intended
the stomach should have regular
hours. A time to work, time to
rest--and when you break up this
habit, you upset the whole arrange
ment. the stomach nerves become
exhausted, the glands refuse to act,
the food does not digest--lies heavy
ferments and repeats. There IS
pain, gas forms, bloating occurs,
the heart becomes irregular and a
nervous, irritable feeling sets In.
This Is nervous dyspepsia and DR..

Read Il In His Newspaper

George Schaub, a well known
German citizen of New Lebanon,
Ohio, Is a constant reader of the
Dayton Volkszeitung. He knows
that his paper aims to advertise
only the best In Its columns, and
when he saw Chamberlain's Pain
Balm advertised therein for lame
back, he did not hesitate In buying
a bottle of it for his wife, who for
eight weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pains In her back and
could get no relief. He says; "Af
ter using the Pain Balm for a few
days my wife said to me, I feel as
though born anew and before
using the entire contents OF the
bottle the unbearable pains had
entirely vanished and she could
again take up her household du-
ties" He Is very thankful and
hopes that all suffering likewise
will hear of her wonderful discov'
cry. This valuable linimeut IS for
sale by c. W. Grier.

POULTRY POINTERS.

Keep the turkey hens tame by feed
ing them close to the house.
When the fowls have free range,
one cock to every fifteen or twenty
hens is sufficient.
The games have more meat for their
size than any other fowl. They grow
slowly, but are solid and firm.
Cooping up the mother hen and al
lowing the chickens to run around Is
the safest and most economical plan.
Wooden floors close to the ground alb
serb the damp from the earth, and the
atmosphere of the house is always
moist.
Bone meal will greatly assist the
growth and development OF bone ID
chickens and in a great measure pre-
vent leg weakness.
The nests must be renewed occasion
ally and kept clean. Clean, dry straw
is the best nesting material. Tobacco
stems will help to keep away vermin.
If it is DESTROYS to have the greatest
number of pounds Of meat from the
smallest quantity Of feed, select the
large breed-Dorkins. Cochins or Brah
mas.

THE BROAD JUMPER.
His Training Must Be Systematic to
Get the Best Results.


Every schoolboy thinks that he can
broad jump, and so he can to a certain
degree. But This event is one which
should be gone AZ Systematically TO get
the best results. The jumper should
first carefully notice his stride on 60
ing up to the take off, so that he can
mark off q diStance-say twenty-five
Yards back-and by stepping on this
mark with one OF his feet as he runs
nv he will be sure to strike the take off
when he comes to it. The jumper can
not be sure of getting his best efforts
into his Jump unless he is practically
sure of hitting the take off. After this
has been acquired the athlete can get
to work.
In this run the jumpers highest
speed should be reached at about ten
or twelve feet before the take off, so
that he can gather himself for the
lump. After leaving the take off he
should shoot out and up. He must
have elevation or his efforts will be IN
vain. He should go into the air at an
angle of at least forty-fve degrees. A
good way to get this elevation Is by
placing a hurdle in the jumping pit
and jumping over it. The jumper
should gather himself together as ne
goes through the air, and at the finish,
lust before alighting, he should force
himself on by a spasmodic effort with
his arms and body. The legs will strike
the ground at the farthest possible
distance. Practice will show how far
out the feet can be thrown without the
athletes falling back into the pit. 1t
must be remembered that the greater
the speed the farther out the feet can
be thrown with safety. \ great deal
Of practice is necessary to become a
good broad jumper, but this IS an
event which it is not we'll to practice
too frequently, as it is very hard on
the legs. The broad jumper will there
fore not expect to get at his best dur
ing his first season.-G. W. Orion in st.
Nicholas.

WIZ tic Mole Is Mind.

The creatures which dwelt In the
darkness Of the depths naturally lost
their powers Of vision after awhile. 1t
IS the same way with the mole, which
IS doubtless descended from progeni'
tors which could see. Blindness IN the
mole is the result Of 4 degeneration OF
tie optic nerve, the consequence OF
which is that images formed in the eye
itself are not transmitted TO the anil
mails consciousness. Occasionally q
mole can see q little out Of one eye
which has retained its communication
with the brain.
It IS not that the mole is born blind,
but that It inhcrlts n tendency to afro
ply Of the visual organs just as peo-
PIE derive from their parents an incu'
nation to consumption or other dis
eases. Some day In the future there
may be no such thing as 4 mole that Is
not entirely and hopelessly blind.

Going to Canossa,

The saying "going to Canossa" refers
to the humlliating pilgrimage made
BIZ the Emperor Henry " to Italy in
the year 1877. Henry had objected to
the claims advanced by Gregory Hide
brand and, refusing to submit, was ex-
communicated by that ponti1. The
emperor at first laughed at the SEN
tence, but took a more serious view
when he found himself deserted even
10y his personal attendants and resolved
on a journey TO Italy to make his peace
with the pope. The latter was then at
the Castle of Canossa, q fortress Of the
Countess Mathilda and situated in the
mountains of Modena. Thither the en-
peror FASTENED, but the pope refused
TO see him save under the most degrad-
ing conditions.
The desperate situation of Henry
compelled him to submit, and for three
days and nights, barefooted and bare
headed, clad only In a hair shirt, the
raiment of a penitcnt, be waited at the
gate. At the end Of this fearful pen
ance, which was undergone in the
month Of January, be was admitted to
the papal presence, was absolved and
received his dominion as a gift from
the pope. The expression has ever
since been current as Indicative Of
abject submission on any terms i'm
posed by tie conqUer0r.
