NAVAJO BLANKET WEAvERs.
Tribe Has $4,000 People, and Most Of
Them are P~olysamists.


Navajo blanket weaving was
studied at close range by P. D. Tull
on his recent six months tour to
Arizona for his health, says the
Spokane Spokesman Review. Mr..
Tull, who is much improved in
health, is back to Spokane with
some fine specimens of blankets
which he personally picked up while
in the south. He said:
'sThese Navajos are one OF the
largest tribes in the country, num-
bering over $4,000 Indians. Their
reservation is equally large, and is
situated in northwestern New Mex
leo and northeastern Arizona. Out
side of the reservation proper the
government has granted them an ad-
ditional strip of forty miles wide.
known as grazing strip h tribe
is self-supporting, and while they
know little of agriculture, they own
immense herds of cattle, horses and
sheep. 1t is from the latter that the
women spin the wool and weav the
blankets and rugs.
THE Navajos are a rowing tribe
when they settle for any time at one
place they live in a dome-shaped
building called a hogan This is a
form of adobe construction, made
with poles and sticks and covered
with mud. When on the move they
live in the regulation tepees. Their
nearest neighbors are the Apaches,
with whom, in the old days, they
were often engaged in war. The
Navajos r polygamists, sometimes
having four or five wives. These
they buy, or trade. as they would
any other piece of property. The
squaws do most of the work. They
wash, spin and dye the wool, and
weave it on primitive looms into
quaint and artistic designs. They
never use figures of people, animals,
or birds, as do the basket weavers,
but their designs are largely geomet-
rical. Red. black, orange, white and
gray are the predominating colors.
Uutl0 SOuuO oqudWo may uS0 anu
repeat some characteristic design, it
is a noteworthy fact that ~ two rugs
are ever alike. This is almost in
credible, when we consider the hun
dreds of rugs that have been made
by them.
ITO say nothing of the time it
takes to wash, dye and spin their
wool, it requires about a month of
steady work to weav a rug four by
six feet. These ar eeasily recognized
by the smaller patterns and smooth,
close weave. While the Navajos
have never been Christianized, it is
a fact of interest that the design of

cuRFEw FOR DOGS.
Bill In English Parliament to Cur
tail the CANNES Time.

1t is said that every dog has his
day. Many of them have nothing
else. However that may be, the day
of all dogs in England is o o to be
much shorter. 1t once consisted Of
twenty-four hours, but a bill has
been introduced in parliament which
calls for the ringing of a dog cur
few, SO to say, says the Boston
Transcript.
This dog bill is designed to lessen
the damage done by dogs in the wor-
rying of cattle, and this it is pro-
posed to do by instituting a kind of
curfew for dogs and robbing them
of the time-honored privilege Of
first bite"
Hitherto, in order to be successful
in an action for damages done by a
dog, it has been necessary to prove
a previous ~mischevious propensity
in the animal. The first clause of
the new bill recites that "the owner
of the dog shall he liable in damages
for injuries done to any cattle by
that dog; and it shall not be neces-
sary to show a previous .mischevious
propensity in the dog, or the owners
knowledge of such propensity. or to
show that the injury was attribu-
table to neglect ON the part of the
owner"
If it can be proved that any dog
has chased or injured cattle that dog
is banned as dangerous and may
be proceeded against according to
the provisions of a rigorous law. AS
for the curfew regulation, 1t empow-
ers the Board of Agriculture to make
orders Tor preventing dogs from
starving all or any of the hours be-
tween sunset and sunrise" Stray
dogs may be impounded at the ex-
pense of the owner. and if not claim
ed within five clear days may be de-
stroyed.

A Mild Question That soothed.

In n of the parlor cars of a train
vending its way to this city a man
who looked the typical sport" was
making himself obnoxious, and all
the other passengers uncomfortable
by the continuity and s-enselessness
of his "kicks." He had the porter in
every few minutes to complain about
something. That was bad enough,
but at length he grew profane. 1t
seemed as if any attempt to check
the flow of his evil language must
lead to a fight. A ben~evolent-look-
ing old mar who sat next to him
proved, however, that a mild ques-
ton as well as a mild answer will
turn away wrath. Just after the
sport" had INDUCED himself in an
other violent outburst of profanity
the old man bestowed upon him a
gentle glance through his gold
trimmed ~spectacles, n with the ut
most gravity drawled out the inno-
cent query:
Say, my brother. where do you
preach tomorrow"
A roar of laughter went up from
the car. the sport" himself had to
grin, and the rest Of the journey to
the city was made in peace and
ouiet.-New York Press.

Enecr OF Drugs upon the Eyes.


Certain poisons possess the prop.
erty of acting in a decided manner
ON the eye. Atropine enlarges the
pupil and for this purpose has be-
come indispensable in ophthalmol
ogy. Santonine causes one to see
yellow.
Disturbances of vision have fur
thermcre been observed as second
airy effects o. certain medicines; for
instance, after the use of quinine,
iodoform and naphthaline, which, in
a case of intestinal catarrh, caused
a cataract. The worm disease in the
district of the Ruhr in Germany has
furnished an opportunity for the OBJ
servation that the popular fern-root,
much employed as a remedy, may
give rise to serious ocular injury.
The use OF this remedy in the case
Of two miners led to %rncurable blind
ness.
In the trades there are also poiscns
which act especially upon the eye.
Very dangerous, above all, is lead,
which produces Inflammation and
atrophy of the optic nerve. Work
men in mustard factories" says a
German medical Journal, 'often suf-
fer from Inflammation Of the cornea,
in consequence of the action of the
mustard vapors upon the eye" Lat

and chloric dioxide, poisonous vapors

How Ants sIeep.

During sleep the ants body is
quite still. Occasionally may be
noted a regular lifting up and setting
down of the fore feet. one leg after
another, with almost rhythmic mo-
tiCn. The antenae also have a gen.
tie quivering. apparently %inyolun-
tary movement, almost like breath
ing. The soundness of slumber was
frequently proved by applying the
feather end of a quill. The feather
tip is lightly drawn along the back,
stroking with the fur" There is
no motion. Again and again this
action is repeated. the stroke being
made gradually heavier. Still there
Is no change. The strokes are direct
ed upon the head, with the same re-
suit. Then the feather is applied to
the neck with a waving motion in
tended to tickle it. The ant remains
motionless.
Finally the sleeper is aroused by a
sharp touch of the quill. She
stretches out her head; then her
legs, which she shakes also; steps
nearer to the light, yawns, and be-
gins to comb her antennae and brush
her head and mouth. Then she
