Cree Indians as a member of the

When John Anderson, a relative, ap-

him. Finally he met an old resident
who remembered that, many years ago,

the Indians and was the widow of a
member OF the band, who was killed
in a snowslide several weeks ago. She
remembered nothing of her parents.

like Anderson. All she had left to re-
member them by was little gold ring.
There was an inscription on the inside
of this ring, but as she could not read

Some More New Ideas.

=
When Ezekiel and Cobb's twins re-
turned from West Eastborough, they
said the air felt like snow Mandy
had kept some supper for them. Eze-
kiel said they had supper over to East
borough Centre, but the home cooking
smelled so good that all three sat down
n the kitchen and disposed Of what
Mandy had provided.
The other members of the Pettengill
household were in their respective
rooms. Uncle Ike was reading mag
azine. Alice had not retired, for Man
dy always came to her room before she
did so to see that her fire was all right
for the night. Alice was great lover
Of music and she had enjoyed the af-
ternoon almost as much as Quincy had.
She could not help thinking what mu-
sEal treats might be in store for them,
aj1d then the thought came to her how
she would miss him when he went
back to Boston.
In the next room, Quincy was pursu-
ing similar line Of thought. He5was
thinking Of the nice times that Alice
and he could have singing together.
To be sure he wished to do nothing to
make his father angry, for Quincy ap-
preciated the power Of money. He
knew that with his mothers third de-
Quoted, his fathers estate would give
him between $780, 900 and 100000.
He had some money in his own right
left him by q fond aunt, his fathers
sister, the income from which gave
him a good living without calling upon
his father.
He knew his father wished him to
become lawyer, and keep up the old
firm which was so we'll known in legal
and business circles, but Quincy in his
heart realized that he was not equal
TO 1t, and the future had little attrac
ton for him, ii it were to be passed
in the law offices of Sawyer & Crown
inshield & Lawrence. At any rate his
health was not fully restored and he
determined to stay at Mason's Cor
ner as long as he could do SO without
causing q break in the friendly rela
tons existing between his father and
himself His present income was
enough for his personal needs, but il
was not sufficient to also support 6
Mrs. Quincy Adams Sawyer.
What Ezekiel had prophesied came
true. No one knew just when the
storm began, but the picture that greet
ed Mandy SINNERS eyes when she
came down to get breakfast was {
great contrast to that Of the previous
day.
The snow had fallen steadily il

HISTORY ON MANS SKIN.
A Piece of ArtI~tic Tattooing Re-
yenled by an Arrest of the
Paris Police.

a remarkable life story is reported
from Lyons. In consequence of a com
PLANT lodged by local butcher,
young man, of weak and miserable APP
pearance, was arrested for theft. He
protested that he was innocent of the
charge, and that he had never before
been in the hands Of the police, says a
Paris report to the Chicago Inter
Ocean. ITO prove the truth of my
statement" he continued, barring his
breast, look at this, and see whether
it would not be easy TO establish my
identity"
The young fellow having stripped to
the waist, IL was found that his body
was entirely tattooed with historical
scenes, which included the murder of
the Due de Guise and the death of Pres
ident Carnot.
The mans life story was as remark
able as the rest. Son of the wife of a
superior officer in the French army,
and born out of wedlock at Marseilles.
he was placed by his mother with a
woman in that town, who received GO
francs a month for some years for his
keep. Afterward he served on several
coasting vessels as cooks boy, where
he met former student of the Beaux-
Arts school, who was also in Difficult
ties, and who tattooed his body in a
most artistic manner.

KING EDWARDS HEIGHT.
From This Extract II May he Drawn
That His MaJesty Is About
FIve-FoOt-Six.

Why people should make bets on
matter about which they have no
information, and then ask Inc to de,
eide them without ascertaining
whether / know any more than they
do, is one of the mysteries of edi-
torial life, says writer in London
Truth. Here is the latest example CT
this singular practice:
'Sir: i should esteem 1t favor il
you will kindly answer in your Truth
columns or privately, what the
height OF King Edward VII. is, as two
papers have already been written to.
and they decidedly disagree, one stat
ing five feet five and onehalf inches.
and the other five feet four inches,
and | shall therefore, take your
measurement as authentic, etc"
One might have supposed that his
previous experience would have
shaken this gentleman's confidence in
editorial infallibility. Why did he
not write to me kings tailor? I
have never had occasion to take his
majesty's measure. But if my guess
is 10 decide the knotty point, |
guess five feet seven inches. No
doubt plenty of people will be ready
to correct this off hand; but ] do
not believe j can be more than half
an luck out either way. Certainly
both the figures given above are I'M
der the mark.

LUNAcY ON THE INCREASE.
A swedi~h Professor Says That Edu.
Gated Women Are the Chief
Victims.

Hermann Lundborg. of the great
Swedish lunatic asylum al Upsala,
says that lunacy is increasing among
Swedish women and more especially
among the educated classes. In the
lower classes insanity is brought on
chiefly by the cares of life or intern
perance, but in the educated women
the main cause, he contends, is their
education.
DIR. Lundborg emphatically asserts
that the forced training 10 which this
class of women submit themselves is
most hurtful.
1t is monstrous." he says, Ito sub
ject women TO this competition, and
IL the competition does not cease ef-
fects upon future generations will be
disastrous"
DIR. Lundborg states that the Swed-
ish who have been educated in acade-
mics have remarkably small families
when they have any and that in too
many cases their family relations are
unhappy owing to their inability to
arge/household duties.
