Indians and Shoes,

Sioux Falls Press: Did you ever no
tice the Indians feet, or rather have
you noticed the size shoes they wear?
1t is 4 rare thing thai you will ever
see an Indian with shoes that are large
enough. Last evening n reporter of
the Press spoke of the fact to Jones,
the shoeman. ooh, yes" said Jones.
Indians never have their shoes fitted
and they buy the smallest size they can
find II they thinlf they can get their foot
into 1t. One time we bought a bargain
lot of shoes for d certain purpose and
advertised them at ST. In came the
Indians. Guess they read the Press.
We'll, sir, they rushed in and said, Give
me six give me five and a half give
me five We sell a good many shoes to
the Indians and W. seldom sell a shoe
to the longest redman that is larger
than n No. s." Mr.. Jones confessed
that to him the fact was very percept-
ible for he himself wears a NO. -.
Some time" said Mr.. Jones, these In
dians come in here with their big toes
extending through a hole in the uppers
almost full toe length"

NNNI.
WIFE INTERPRETER.

a couple of weeks slipped %unevent-
fully by so far as / was concerned. l
played my part, though it cost me Il,
tight rein on my every waking move
ment. 1t was so easy to make a slip,
so impossible to stitch up my mask if |
ever made the slightest rent.
Ends eyes grew troubled as the days
went by. So grieved was she at the,
monotonous, drudging life [ led that
she wished US to take the road once
more, under p%retense of return, and
seek out some place where l could be
myself again.
She also a her own to
undergo. 1t had pleased Jack Postgate
TO assume the position of her sworn adj
mirer, and poster her with attentions.
Jack, of course, received every Snub,
which could be politely administered,
but the thickness OF his skin was such
that ne drew not back al inch.
One afternoon l was sitting at table
in the kitchen, where q meal had just
been concluded, when Siani came in
n gave me a slip of paper, accom-
panying it with voluble directions of
which l understood never q word. |
stared Vacantly at the paper as she
talked away among a litter of my fell
low servants, who always took n huge
delight in hearing Welsh spoken. and
discovered 1t was a request from Roger
to the landlord OF the village inn for a
measure of Canary wine to be sent by
bearer. This sounds as If my cellars
had not been indifferently stocked, yet
the truth is that short as was the time
troops had been Quartered on the place
it han suficed them to drink all dry,
and Roger was in no mind to show he
possessed cash by restocking.
| nodded when Siani paused, put the
paper in my pocket and marched at
once.
I found Adam Bell, the landlord, in
his kitchen and delivered the paper.
He gave me a glass of ale and bade me
sit Down for a moment, for he was busy
at the time. I drank the ale readily
enough. but took no notice of his invi-
tation til his wife called out:
1.-THE man understands We not, Adam.
Point to the %settee; he'll know what we
mean, then
My old acquaintance conducted me to
a seat in dumb show, and hustled off
in the parlor, n I heard Jack Post
gates voice.
"Confound the fellow" thought I,
hes forever hanging about Butley.''
Then I caught his words, for Adam
had left the door OPEN. what, land
lord, that man here! The very fellow
1 want to come to speech with"
This puzzled me a little. 1t sounded
as If Adam Ia been talking of me, yet
how Jack Postgate should speak so
confidently of winning speech with me
was not easy to divine. Another scrap
of conversation came across the pas
sage, and my blood leaped up and
drummed furiously in my ears.

Ten LAYERS of History.

Harper's Magazines; For the first time
the who'll history Of one of the great ma
tional sites OF Egypt has been opened be-
fore US; dating from the beginning of the
kingdom, and ending with almost the last
Of its native ~k.ngs-from Mena, about 400
3. c., to Nekht-horheb, $40 B. C. History
Is here laid out for us In strata, from
which the past can be read as we lift
them away one from another.
In order to read, however, one must
know the alphabet Of the subject: and
that has only lately been learned, from
the pottery, the fints, the beads, which
show, each, the age to which they be-
long. Excavation on a site with a long
history Is mere destruction If each stra-
UNI is not read and interpreted intelli-
gently as it is opened; unfortunately, this
has never been done before on any such
site. On the earliest sacred site of Ably
dos, the first capital of Egypt, temples
had been piled on the ruins of another
until ten ages of building stood stacked
together in about twenty feet depth Of
ruins. Each temple had become partly
ruined after a few centuries, and then at
last was pulled down, leaving a foot or
two of the walls and foundations; and a
new temple of a different plan was then
erected on the ground. America is not
old enough for this to be done even once,
but london stands on a mound of over
twenty feet of ruins, from which it's past
will some day be read as we now read
that of Egypt.

But how was he to know that? He
spoke kindly"
ON the whole, it is just as well he
shouldn't know Did he turn any ques-
tons my way?"
He seemed to accept the story of
your return to France. At any rate,
he repeated it to me in explanation of
the state Of affairs. 1t was the only
reference he made to YOU
WAS he curious rs to your onnec
ton With Butley Croft?'
Il think he was, though he was very
guarded. Roger had told him ! was Il
ward and connection ot-of Sir Arthur
Vaughan"
1T is a satisfactory account" said I,
and one to which you can fairly lay
claim"
Another man now came to join me at
my task, and Enid sauntered slowly
: away. l piled my logs and reviewed
the situation carefully. 1t seemed
strong enough, so far as l could see. for
us to rest here for Il time at any rate
If any danger arose it would be Easy
to take the road again, for l had dis
covered that Roger was in a position
to pIentifully %replenish my exhausted
purse But to what cnd-to march
about the country, exposing Enid to
the chances Of rough weather and rude
travel? The very fact of her being in
itlltN NipI iS, Va d sSllSS All ~
ment of strength in the game we We're
playing.
1t was a natural refuge for 4 connec-
ton of Sir Arthur Vaughan, a son of
the house.
1t argued an ignorance of our doinSs
which would avert suspicion, yet an ig-'
norance entirely natural when the in
frequent communication was consid-,
cred.
For myself, rumor had done me an
excellent turn. A party of my friends
taking the alarm upon the first arrests
that were made, had ridden northeast
to Boston in Lincolnshire. There, they
a hired a fishing lugger and escaped
safely landing on the shores of France;
and, upon all sides, my name was con-
1identially given as one of the party. !
could have wished for nothing better,
and this was the story to which Enid
referred.

Why German Officers Are Unhappy.

Why German Officers Are Unhappy.
Berlin Correspondence Of Golfers
Weekly: Lieutenant Bilse, at the mo-
rnent talked of in every officers casino in
the empire, is the author OF a romance
picturing German army life so merciless-
ly and truly hat he Is in arrest pending
a court-martial for disclosing military
secrets. The accusation rests upon in
dlscret.ons of statement that are not OBJ
vious to the civilian eye. Bilse's book is
really an analytical study of the depress-
ing effect of the profession of arms on
men of heart and lively minds. In 1t may
We found an explanation of the frequent
-9lcldes in the officers corps.
The officer who fails to qualify for the
general staff or to obtain an appointment
IN the household troops must endure The
unending tedium of garrison duty. Bilse
served in a small post an the French
frontier. He describes the unchanging
routine, the gossip of every day with the
same persons. the limited social life be-
cause of caste prejudices, the deadening
loyalty to the Crown-as alone represent
ing the nation-and by decadent ideas of
honor.
TIL unutterable weariness of such a life
after the man has reached so, heightened
by a marriage for money, reduces one of
sensual temperament to a life of ease and
Indulgence or irr.tates the man of sensi-
bility to mental revolt sometimes ending
in suicide. This is also why the socialists
receive secret aid from many officers.
Bilse's work has been suppressed as tend
ing to bring the military profession into
IiScredit.
