HERALDRY OF THE INDIANS.

Paint on the Face Corresponds to Ar morial Bearings.
 "People in general have been content to look upon the Indians adornment of his head with eagle feathers and his face with paint as marks of per sonal decoration; inspired by vanity and savage taste, different only in degree from what. is sometimes wit messed among highly civilized peoples" :" remarked scientist of the bureau of ethnology. But the fact is," he con tinued, that in reference to the latter custom, for instance, every paint mark on an Indians face has sort of her aldic meaning, implying not only the honors won by the brave in person, but representing also the claims of his fam fly and race to distinction. In other words, what is shown among more cul- tured communities by coats-of-arms orders and decorations is depicted by the Indian on his face by means of pigments.
 Scientists of this bureau are now engaged, among other novel investiga- tions concerning the North American Indian, in compiling a record of the armorial, or rather, facial, bearings of certain celebrated, chiefs, and it Is found to be fascinating work. One re- nowned warrior, for instance, will have his lip painted q copper red. This is found to indicate that his tribe was once in possession of huge mines of copper.
 "Another individual will have his forehead adorned with a painting of a certain fish, thus. implying that he or his people are renowned for prowess in catching fish. The same dfstirl- guished person sometimes wears a disk of pearl in addition to his. paint mask. This by it's shimmering radiance and It's form implies that he is descend ed from the moon in the sense that the goddess of night is one of his ancestors.
 ''The fact that the Indian artist has no conception of perspective seriously handicaps the success ok his pictorial efforts. Indeed, the Indian limner merely aims to show the most charact- eristic portion of the object he attempts to depict, unless he be man of un- usual attainments, in which case he di- vides or dissects the subject of his pie ture and represents the whole by it's parts. the latter being arranged entire- ly irrespective of the natural sequence, so that properly to understand na- tive Indian picture would require a
The daily morning journal and courier., 1905-11-03

course in a specialized branch of art criticism.
 The exceedingly arbitrary methods Of the Indian artist render it difficult, if not wholly impossible. for any but an expert to interpret the meanings of the pictorial representations.
 Thus the animals ears are invari- hly depicted above tine eyes on the hu- man subject, the ears of the beaver being just above the eyebrows. On the cheek are painted the paws in a po- sltion as they were raised to the mouth in the manner conventional in Indian carvings.
 '"Fhe dogfish painted in red on the face designates the. members of an en- tire tribe. On the fOrebeads of the members of this tribe is painted the long, thin snout; the gills are repre- sented by two curved lines below the eyes, while the tail is shown as cut in two and hanging from each nostriI. only one or two parts of an animal painted on an Indians face indicates that he is of inferior position; the en- tire symbol, no matter in what form presented, is significant of lofty sta- tion and high honors
 This facial heraldry of the Indians may be said to be unique not alone in the method of representation employ ed. but in the subjects selected. These latter include fish, flesh and fowl of all descriptions-dog salmon, devilfish, starfsh, woodpeckers, ravens. eagles, bears, wolves, frogs are comprised in the armorial gallery.
 Every object represented has its own particular significance and one of the most particular phases of the face- painting relates to the employment of forms other than animai-tools, irnple- ments Of the chase, of war. denoting the occupation of the individual of his tribe, etc. Chicago Chronicle.

TIE AYAroErAy 4 RArLR0AD.

An English correspondent of Lon- don newspaper has been Investigating the Anatolian railroad and confesses that the work has been well and thor oughly done, and cannot fail to exert great influence upon the district through which it passes. Everywhere within reach of 1t the area of cultiva- tion has been increased enormously. Tn the vilayet of Konia, for example, it has been more than quadrupled. The price which the grower can obtain for his produce has been doubled or more, and imported articles have been reduc- ed in price and rendered far more &C., cessible. But the line, he says, is not popular, and everybody has his com- plaint to make. Apart from the defec- tive passenger service, the main causes of complaint are the high tariffs and the prevalence of red tape. In reply to the first charge the company maintains that the freights are as low as they can be made with safety. The charge of superfuous red tape appears to have more solid foundation, Turks, Greeks, Armenians and even Germans seem to agree in saying that the Germans im- pose upon all their employees the most elaborate and stringent regulations, from which no deviation is permitted, even where 1t would obviously be to the interest of the company. The masters of important stations have to refer to the head office before giving their de- cisions on any of the petty questions which are constantly arising, and the general tendency is to make the organ- ization machine, which is worked en- tirely from the center and in which no right of independent initiative is left to individual members. The correspond ent contrasts this system with the more elastic management on the Smyr- na-Aidin line, which is under British direction, and is already returning fair profits

Life Insurance Once More.

To Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 In view of recent startling discover ies in the life insurance world, it be- comes necessary to discriminate care fully between life insurance and life insurance managers. For, while life in- surance managers may be both inconl- petent and dishonest, life insurance it. self, in its spirit and purpose, stands for that which is best in ourselves, namely, our willingness to make sacri- fees for the sake of those whom we love, and who are dependent upon us, so that if they lose us they will not be left entirely destitute. The question for the true man to settle therefore, is not, Shall I? or, shall not insure my life?'' but What form of insur- ance policy will best serve my pur- pose?' And the answer of experience to his question is clearly this, Choose a policy which provides that if you die before you attain yo1r sixty-fifth birthday, it thereby natures and be- comes immediately payable to your beneficiaries, but if you survive your sixty-fifth birthday, it then natures as an endowment, and becomes imne- diately payable to yourself for your own support thereafter
 If we select this form of policy in a company whose premium-rates are as low as conservative requirements will permit, and whose management expen- ses and death losses are as low as wise and honest management can make them, we shall be sure to get all the benefits we can reasonably expect from a policy of life insurance
 In choosing company, we should be careful to select one with good record for efficiency and honesty. The company selected need not be very large in order to be very good. We know now that mere bigness does not necessarily mean goodness. But low premium rates low management ex- penses. and low death losses are indis- pensable to the best results in life irl- surance. We should be on our guard therefore against excessive rates. for they mean extravaganza III manage ment sooner or later. We should also beware of the so-cal1ed ''Deferred Div tdend Policy with its many aliases E whether it be for five years, or for twefis ty years, for it is essentially a. gamb- ling contract, and lends itself readily to all forms of extravaganza and dishon. esty as its record now plainly shows.

A furniture maker of Grand Rapids has taken @ fling at the tariff. To an interviewer in Washington he said re- gently: 't"rhe furniture makers of the United States would be glad to see the g tariff on lumber abolished, as it does nobody any good, except those who have vast stumpage possessions. By the way, there is reliable authority for the statement that twenty-eight indi- yiduals own 90 per cent. of all the standing lumber in the United states. The duty on lumber, therefore, is in the interest of 8 mere handful. Its price is already 50 high that the pro- dtcers of furniture cannot begin to get their legitimate profit out of manufact- ured goods.'

A monster political parade was held irl Philadelphia the other day. It was headed by a band of thirty-five dis coursing stirring marching tunes. The leader of the band had contracted in advance to supply that many players, but when he came to count noses he found eight missing. It did not take him long to decide what to do. After some hustling he secured eight men, not one of whom could play note of music, and decked them out in the reg ulation band uniform. He placed in- struments and music in their hands and paraded the full number. Did they play?" was asked. "Yes," said the band leader, ''but not music. I put a
 cork in each of the eight instruments. "

The raising of Mocha coffee is done by Arabs out in the mountainous coun- try of Arabia, where no white man has ever been, and statisticians and crop forecasters. are unknown. There are no extensive plantations out there as We know of them in other places, but each Arab has his own few bushes around his little house, and raises enough cof- fee for his own use and little for trading for other commodities. It thus becomes difficult and slow process to collect from hundreds of people enough to load a caravan. The markets of Alden and Hodeida are several hundred miles from where the coffee is grown, and the journey to these markets takes several weeks.
