PASSING OF MEDICINE MAN
Red Men Are Coming to Believe in
the Virtues of the White
Mans Medicine.

The skilled professional doctor Is
one of the greatest helps to the In
dian, and the Navahos are receiving
him with very little distrust, says the
Southern Workman. The savage mis-
appropriation of things that are new
is gradually subsiding, as results make
clear to him that the white mans medi-
cine is more powerful than his. But
there are exceptions. The purely physi-
doctor, but there still remains in many
cases a mental uncertainty that de-
mands the attention of the tribal med
icine man. 1t is not a foible or
fancy. but mental disease governed
by countless ages of mysticism which
necessitates the occult, mind-easing
treatment of the old days. This, then,
is mind cure of the Indians - the
Christian Science of the savage, which,
hand in hand with concrete medicine,
exists in all races, whether barbaric
or cultured. 1t is as necessary to the
Indian as a certain amount of mind
cure is essential to our happiness.
The knowledge of modern curative
agents should be impaired to the
younger members of the tribe. They
are capable of assimilating new facts
and will take readily to the new school,
Civilization Is disrupting the tribal or
ganization to such an extent that the
major portion of the old laws and be-
liefs relating to the causes and cure of
disease will soon be things of the past
With this essential of the old life gone,
the work of the medicine men will have
been finished. At present there must
be a certain cooperation between the
modern doctor who goes among them
and the medicine man of the tribe.

BOWS Idea of Babies.

Here is an essay on babies, by an
English board schoolboy: "Babys are
little red things without bones nor
teeth. They have various sises, but
just after they are borned, they are
called bypeds; their bones are grisle.
They are two sects, male and female,
and are also very fat. When very
young they do not have much hair.
They are always asleep only when
crying. Women and girls go silly over
babys, and kiss them all over and
say silly things. That's why girls
have dolls when they haven't any little
brothers. Everybody as to be a baby
first. That's all know about babys,

strike. Farley used his brains more
and directed brute strength along lines

the Pittsburg Office went into effect
wherever Farley strung his "live

all, was strike-breaker who needed
a general manager or superintendent
to help plan for the trips.

"Farley's here-he will have 1000

message that went through the room
where were gathered the chiefs of the
teamsters' joint council. The name
Farley was one to conjure with on the
streets. A people who had no knowl-
edge of Farley except what was gained
from the press wondered if Farley
wore a coat of mail, slept with his
head on a Winchester and had body
guard of cowboys.
Yes, Farley was there. We saw him
we who were watching for the man
whom the millionaire merchants ex-
pected to help them out of their stag
nation. But the Farley who came into
