PROFESSIONAL EATERS.
indians Employ Substitutes to Cor
sume Food For Them.

indians Employ Substitutes to COn-
sume Food For Them.
One Of the most striking customs Of
the past that are preserved by the In
dams Of today is found among the
tribes on the Devils Lake reserva-
ton in North Dakota An official Of
the Indian service gives the following
account of this peculiar practice:
"From time immemorial the Devils
Lake Sioux have adhered to an old
custom In regard to the treatment Of
a guest According to their etiquette.
it is the bounden duty of the host to
supply his guest with all the food he
may desire. and as rule the appor-
honment set before the visiting Indian
is much in excess of the capacity Of a
single man.
"But by the same custom the guest
is obliged to eat all that Is placed be-
fore him. else he grossly insults his
entertainer. 1t was found that this
practice would work hardship. but
instead of dispensing with the Gus
tom the Indian method of reasoning
was applied, and what is known as the
professional eater was brought to the
front
"While the guest is supposed to eat
all that Is placed before him, it serves
the same purpose If his neighbor as
sists In devOuring the bountiful repast,
the main object being to have the
plate clean when the meal is finished.
ut is not always practicable to de-
pend upon a neighbor at table to as
sist in getting away with large din
ner, and In order to insure the final
consumption Of the allotted portion
visiting Indians call upon these pro-
fessional eaters, whose duty it is to
sit beside them through meal and
eat what the guest leaves. The pro
fessional eaters are never loDked.npOn

the Devils Lake reservation that one
OF the professional eaters has been

as that of pope at Rome. 1t has been
equally unsolicited by my friends. con-
fess have felt great repugnance to enter
into the business and hustle of the world
and to lay myself under any restraint or
responsibility.
An offer like this breaks in upon the
quiet. retired literary life in which I
have 30 long indulged My brothers and
my intimate friends, however. are unan-

complied with their wishes.

proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn." is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them Scott's Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs. a
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
