INDIANS TAKE <
 TO OUR WAYS
FASHION SEEMS TO HAVE DONE WHAT FORGE COULD NOT DO.
Conquest of Red Man. by Civilization Attributed to Woman's Love or Dress-Great Change Within
 Decade-Tribes All Over
 the Country Affected.

The Indian has to a great extent aoan- aonad the attire of his ancestors ana to'dav is likely to be found wearing Ihe ordinsrv dress of the white man Ana +ho change in his way of living IS al- most as great .,., ,,o Al, +uo .xcentions-as. for instance, the \hero- 1,aos-within the last decade, or even 1ass. and has been wrought almost silh- ,,ltaneously in tribes separated Irom ohe another by hundreds or mics.
 For over a century, the Indians or America have been systematically sup santed bv the government to the pro 9eos 9eo.e oe civilization. They opposed it., Ses,~ht if all along and have inevita- tI', esacreased in numerical strength and power. -.... E., o,i,,eire, +o fra I.,t,on. hut now, after all these years, thev have seemingly arrived at the con cIusion in their own fashion that to be savej they must conform to the white rnan's way. It is simply the natural law of self-preservation asserting itself.
 The scientists who are noting the change with wonder have found no ebarner contrast between two successive penerations of Indians than that dis 1layed by the Six Nations on their re- servation in Canada, whither they emil grated hundred years ago from New York State in order to throw in their lot with the British.
 These Indians were among the .1rst to come within the influence of the white man, but it is only within the last few years that both Christians and pagans among them have discarded the blanket

and the traveller in the Far North sees whole communities of red men who wear the garb ofsNestern civilization with the ease of the Occidental himself
 Like their far-away brothers in Alaska, the full-blooded red men of Southern Cal- ifornia also are fast acquiring new ways.
 These Indians were Chrlstianized 8 cen- tury ago by the Spanish padres. Father Junipero Serra was especially active in converting the red 'heathen. But convert ing them to Christianity and bringing them into state of slavery meant about the same thing with him. Thus. the peons of the early missions were civilized only in that they were not hostile to white men. They titled the soil for the monks as the villains of mediaeval times did for their baroniaI masters, but education did not enter into the contract. On the contrary, 1t was avoided as dan- gerous.
 It was left to the Americans within the last two decades to teach the Southern California Indians real civilization, which they did by throwing open schools and colleges to them. and now these Indians form part of the population worthy of respect and consideration. Most of these civilized peons are ranchers and fruit raisers.
 From their old Spanish masters they took Spanish names, so many are known by such names as Rodriguez, Vallejo. Ramirez and Sanchez, which gives the superficial tourist the impression that these pure red men are the children of old Spanish settlers. They are not so energetic or partial to academic studies as the reformed Diggers up State, but in their own way they are just as thor oughIy civilized.
 In Arizona, New Mexico and parts of zation Is visible. Here the bucks still go to town in blankets and long hair; 1t is in their home life that the change is most apparent.
 They live in comfortable wooden houses farm the land by white methods. have the latest patented kind of ploughs. har- rows. sewers, and reapers, drive about in modern farm wagons behind spans of mules harnessed according to East ern methods, and keep themselves in- formed of the rise and fall of the mar kets. When working on their farms they dress fin the ordinary overalls and jump CTS of the American farmland. These are a few examples of the evo- lution of the new Indian. So widespread has been this change from the old to the new that when the promoters of the In- dian shows to he given at the St, Louis exhibition made their contracts with the Indians they stipulated in the agree ments that the noble red man should ap- pear exclusively in the garb that is in- separably connected with the Indian, and
 not in frock coats and top hats.

and the feathered headdress for trous- CTS and felt hats. The change has been so general that it would seem to be the result of preconcerted action, but the Indians and the agents deny that such is the case
 On the other hand, not a few of the braves have secretly admitted that the women had great deal to do with the tribes abandonment of the costumes of their forefathers.
 Our women," said one of the bucks recently, 'got hold of the frustrated women's papers and magazines and saw all sorts of white women's clothes in them. Then they got to thinking that blankets and an occasional calico slip were not good enough for them, and longed for the dresses they'd seen in the magazines.
 Well. you know the women of the Six Nations have always run the tribes and elected the chiefs, and so they got sew ing machines and made themselves white women's dresses.
 When they got dressed up In them, they saw that our blankets and their cloth skirts didn't go well together Well, the women have always governed the Six Nations, and before long we were wear ing store clothes. just like the white men,"
 It is true that the Mohawk women took the lead in adopting, modern dress, and they have become such skillful sewers and follow the fashions so closely that they rival the white women of adjacent towns in matters of dress.
 On May "A last, when the Six Nations gathered at Brantford to celebrate the Kings birthday the wives of the pro- vincial officials expressed their astenish- ment at finding hundreds of full blooded and half-breed Indian women and girls parading before them in tailor cut coats, shirt waists and cloth skirts of walking length, with their hair done up in the approved styles beneath up-to-date milli- nery creations.
 This adoption of the white mans garb, the agent say. has made the Six Nations turn with greater energy to the white mans way of living, and everywhere i'm provement has been noted in the towns and on the farms, where barn raisings are numerous, modern implements are multi plying, and in several cases steam ploughs are being used.

To Chance the subieot

The more I study the subject of dress the more I am struck by the fact that there are two distinct ways of dressing one fussy one, requiring chiffon veils, tulle rosettes. pearl chains and thou sand little frills and furbeiows which are detachable, and the other comprising a few costumes. well made according to the standard styles, without any other ac- cessories than a hat to match each cos tune. Even the shirt waists of such a wardrobe are severely plain no thin ma teriaI and no insertions, but stitched plaits and severely tailor made stock fastened with a dull gold pin.
 II takes twice as much money to dress in the first way. the frilly way. and even then one does not always look fresh and immaculate Give me the plain, neat style, be it in a dressy gown or a tailor made. It even lends distinction to a ple- meian- face and a none too distinguished manner.
 This very thing Is the trouble with the average girl who has a small income she attempts more than she can carry out and thinks lot of finery put on tackily worth more than simple gown and hat which match In color. Take my advice. leave what my English friend calls the bobby diddles'' alone and invest your money in few good things.
