Buena Suggestion de Estado.

La question de estado para Oklahoma
y ell Territorio INDIGO y para Nuevo
Mexico y Arizona esta discutiendose
extensamente en- TODD ell pals. Perio-
dicos al oriente del Rio Mississippi
generalmente favorecen la ~creacion de
dos estados de los cuatro territories.
Periodicos al poniente de csc poderoso
lugar soportan los reclamos de Nuevo
Mexico Arizona a estado consolidate.
Ell Kansas City Times, hablando sobre
ell movimiento de la consolidation de
Oklahoma y ell Territorio INDIGO, dice
que ell DR.. T. Doyle, de Perry, Okla
homa, hace la facil suggestion que en- ell
%cuento de la cai6a del proyecto de es
tado Oklahoma ell Territorio INDIGO.
Sc unan y adopten una constitution y
luego pidan ser admitidos a la Union.
Sc recordara que mientras ell proyecto
de Misuri estuvo pendiente en- 1919
una peticion fue mandada al congreso
de una convention constitutional en-
Maine, pidiendo estado. La legislature
de Massachusetts habia consentido va
a la separation de aquella ~comunidad
del distrito conocido como Maine y los
residences habian escogidos a una con-
v~encion la cual form6 una constitution
y despues pedido aprobacion del con-
greso. I'm proyecto fue pasado en-
cumplimiento con la sdplica, pero mas
tarde Sc junto con la medida de Misuri
y ambos estados fueron finalmente
admitidos. Varios otros estados, in
cluso Kansas, habian seguido ell me-
TODD de Maine. AL menos tuvo ell
merito de impr esionar al congreso la
agresividad del pueblo por estado.
Aqui sera propio para la Asamblea
Legislative de Nuevo Mexico durante
la session considarar este objeto y fuer-
temente peticionar al congrese por
estado separado y arreglar para una
convention constitutional fla adopcion
de una constitution para ell estado de
Nuevo Mexico durante les proximos
dos amos. En- 1889, una convention
constitutional fue tenida en- esta ciu-
dad y una constitution tornado bajo
los estatutos del territorio, pero fue
derrotada cuando fue sometida al pue-
bio, aunque fue de primera orden en-
TODD respecto. Este hecho muestra
que ounce afos pasados, ell pueblo de
este territorio no deseaba ell estado.
BESIDE entonces ell sentimiento p1blico
ha crecido hasta que ahora Sc ha cris-
talizado fuertemente por estado sepa-
RADIO, pero firmemente opuesto a estado
consolidate segun completamente de-
mostrado por sus vote ell dia 8 del pa
sado Noviembre, cuando nueve deci-
mas parties de los votantes del terrific.

tidos regulares Republican, y Demo

DOING The MOST FOR OTHERS
surest Of All Ways TO Bring Bright
ness Into Our Lives.

Sefishness is darkness. II shuts
us up in the tight little box of our own
lives. Unselfishness gives us a wide
circle OF interest and delight. What
we do for others has as much TO do
With our happiness as what we get for
ourselves Just think how many joys
a man may have who is not confined
TO his own reasons for rejoicing! Re
member how jeanne Deans blessed the
good lady who helped her. saying:
When the hour of trouble comes
and seldom may II visit your leddyship
and when the day of death comes,
that comes TO high and low-lang and
late may 1t be yours. o my lady! then
ii isna what we haze done for our
selves, but what we haze done for
ithers, that we think of most pleas
antly" And this truth Is for all hours.
though il be most clearly manifested
in the hour of extremity Doing the
most for others is doing the best for
ourselves. If you have never made
another life bright, you know not how
much brightness can come into your

NEAT AND PRETTY COMPLIMENT
EneIshman's Tribute TO Genius OF
Scottish Divine


A tribute which was at the same
time both gratifying and clever was
once paid to the genius OF DR.. Hugh
Blair the famous Scottish divine and
author
DR.. Blair had collected a considera-
BILE party to meet an English clergy
man at dinner. A Scotehman present,
proud OF the doctors fame, indiscreet-
ly asked the stranger what was
thought OF "the sermons" by his pro
fessional brethren.

ton OF Mrs. Blair. the Englishman an

A wedding in Ashanti is among the

picious day arrives. the all-important
question OF dress arises and is dis
cusstd. Very often the dresses of the
bride and bridesmaids are ordered
from England The bride considers
orange blossoms to be an absolute
necessity, and when the day arrives
she stands before the altar in white
satin or silk dress which is generally
decorated with silver leaves and or
ange blossoms. a tulle veil, and she
carries a boquet Of flowers in her
hands. The bridesmaids have on new
frocks. All wear white kid gloves
and new boots. and the men are re-

smoking a cigarette the other day. In

and nearly spanking the life out OF
him, she said: Johnny, dear, | see

papa's study and set him down to
smoke one of papa's cigars. She sat
down opposite and watched while his
lips grew white and his eyes yellow
and his hands dropped hopelessly, and
little later, as she ministered TO him

of receiving his vehement promise
that he would never, never smoke a
cigarette again in his life,

"pEIrles" or NAVAJO INDIANS.
Tribe Still clinss Fast TO the Ancient
Superstition.


The hideous pictures of Indian del
ties that are commonly circulated give
one little reason TO suspect that they
are, after all, only ordinary human be-
ings. Probably the most awe-inspir-
ing of Indian "deities" are those OF
the Navajo people. The deities are,
really medicine men and they never
perform before the people except
when masked. Their powers are sup
posed to be almost unlimited and a
patient they have treated has before
him a long life and good health. Their
bodies are invariably tattooed In the
most grotesque fashion and over their
heads are placed hideous masks made
of fiber and skins. When patient
is to be treated they dance about him
and sing uncanny songs, all the while
sprinkling him with sacred lotions or
healing him with magic wands. The
whole tribe gathers at such cere'
mony and for days feast and drink at
the sick mans expense. When the
many ceremonies are over the masked
"deities" disappear, unmask in secret,
and later appea 3 ne other
tribesmen.
Though the old-time superstitions
of the Indians are fast dying out, a
few of the more complete nations still
cling to the old traditions and meth
DDS of treating the sick.

Wide Responsibility in China.

In China the whole family is held
responsible for the acts of any of its
members and for certain offenses,
such as an attempt on the life of the
emperor, all are executed, even to the
babe in arms. The tepaom, or dean
of the village, elected by universal
suffrage is responsible for the con-
duct Of the families of his domain.
The subprefect, project, governor and
viceroy are all responsible in different
degrees. An inundation and a famine

the army and then for the law. But
the accuracy with which the eclipse
was predicted Impressed him with the
belief that astronomy was a divine

his life to it. The debt of astronomy
to Tycho Brahe, not only for his own
work, but as the man who shaped
the genius of Kepler, can scarcely be

in some fishing boats whistling Is for
hidden and neither milk nor burnt
bread is allowed on board. Even the
name of that unlucky animal the mare
may not be mentioned and a common
method of furnishing an enemy is to
throw dead hare into his boat Some
fishermen believe in luck attending
an oddnumbered crew. but the good
fortune will be neutralized should one

Nothing can be believed in this

the other half doubtful or not proven. ,
