70 THE HEAITHr INDIAN.

Perhaps the poor Indian doesn't need as much ciyilizing as some have thought. It appears that he can give the paleface points on living. George Wharton James, who is acquainted with Indians, says the Indian sleeps in the open air and thus avoided consumption centuries before the white man learned how to cure it. The Indian "breathes deep and did so instinctively long be- fore 1t became a fad of the physical culturists. He breathes through his nose, rather than through his mouth, and talks througll his mouth rather than through his nose. He keeps "in training. q have known an Indian, '" says Mir James, Ito cover eighty miles on foot in a day, and he was seventy years old. have known Indians to cover two hundred miles on horseback in day. How can that be? They live in the open, sleep in the open and are  an out-of-door people, And, further, they teach the paleface the further les son that teeth were not given to men to dig their graves witil, but actually to grind up their food, so that it might become the strength of their bodies. " MT. James "hopes to live a hundred years, as many of the Indians have done who did not come into too close contact with civilization"
 If the Indian could teach the paleface the value of fresh air he would make a large return for all the paleface has taught him. But the case is a pretty hopeless one,

DO NOT DIRECT.

People are looking around for the causes of things, and President Fish, of the Illinois railroad, says that the trouble that has been going on in the center of our financial system is due to too few men having undertaken to manage too many corporations. As an illustration of this he calls attention to the fact that year ago the ninety-two directors of the three great life insur- ance companies of New York, who lived in that city, held 1, 1,439 directorships in other important corporations One of them was a member of seventy-three boards, another of f1fty-e eight, another of fifty-four, another of fifty-three, and so on. Naturally these men can know but little of the affairs of the corpora tions which are supposed to be super vised by them, and can render no real service in return for the fees they coll lect for attending directors meetings, The result is that the control of these great organizations becomes concern trated in the hands of still smaller number of men who are seldom called upon to give an account of their acts except in the case of such an upheaval as has taken place in the life insurance business.
 It is evident that some of the direc- tors haven't directed, and it is rerceiv- ed that directors ought to direct. So if our rich men will give us a little reform in this direction some things will go better

ANorHgB HEALTHY ERECTION.


 During the last few days the stock market has been having one of those ''healthy reactions which come along occasionally to prevent the credulous and hopeful from getting rich too quick and too much. This time, the talk is, there were not as many of the credu- lous and hopeful to be benefited as there have sometimes been, 'the pub lic' having respectfully and disrespect- fully declined to walk into the parlor with that freedom and unanimity de- sired by the inviters. If this is so it is cheering, but doubtless there have been many who have been obliged to take whatever health there was in the reac- ton for them.
 An experienced old politician of this region was listening to a young politi- clan who had been defeated in an elec- tion and was sorely trying to explain to himself and others how it was done. For Heavens sake" at last said the old politician to the young, don't try to analyze your vote" Perhaps this would apply to those who have just been through the healthy reaction, and can't really see what has happened to them,

OUR LANGUAGE UNIFORM


 It has been observed that the lan> guage spoken in the United States is remarkably uniform. True, there are many dialects, but Great Britain, less in area than any one of half dozen of our States, contains such very differ ent languages as English, Welsh and the Gaelic of the Scottish Highlands. to say nothing of the provincial dialects of Cornwall and Yorkshire and the unique speech of the London Cockney; while in this country, with its vast ex- panse of territory, its settlement by Spanish, French, Dutch and Swedish colonists and it's millions of immigrants drawn from nearly every country, large and small all over the world, there is far greater uniformity of speech than in any other land of equal area and population
 The cause can be readily seen. The public schools have made us nation of readers, and the press has supplied books and papers without limit. Press associations nave done their part toward giving uniform and fairly good tone to the newspaper language of the day The telegraph, the telephone and cheap postage have brought distant parts of the country into quick and easy com munication, and so have aided in teach Ing a common language. The railroad has penetrated every corner of the land and made us nation of travellers. Countless human shuttles thus are thrown daily acros the land in every di- rection, carrying with them the threads of thought and speech and doing their

DESTRUCTIVE BUGS.

If the power of the mosquito had not been proved to us beyond doubt, we would be inclined to regard the esti- mate of $7O0,OOOO,OOO annual loss to our farming interests caused by insects which has been made by the Depart ment of Agriculture as too startling to be true.
 Such an immense sum being well worth the saving, the department has in it's employ a large staff of men who are studying the life history of the pernicious insects, to find out where they are vulnerable. The work has been going on for some years and much progress has alredy been made. The cotton worm, which formerly levied an annual tax of 30,000,000 on the cotton crop, is now controlled by sprays; it has been proved that the ravages of the Hessian fly, which some- times have reduced the wileat acreage in Ohio 40 per cent and in Indiana 50 per cent, beside greatly impairing the yield of the remaining acreage, can be considerably checked by planting wheat at seasons when the fly is not so rapacious; the codling moth is con- trolled by arsenical sprays and S2O,0O0- 900 worth of apples saved as a result. The orange and lemon orchards of California have been relieved of the white scale which threatened to des- troy them. by the importation from Australia of the ladybird the natural enemy of the scale. Many other in- stances could be given of the wisdom of watching the insects.-Country Life in America

NOT THE USV4L T4LK.

This is still a warlike world, but ev- erybody in it isn't wholly military. The government bill for the enarge- ment and fortiflcation Of the yost of Antwerp is provoking much animated discussion in the Belgian parliament. One of it's most effective opponents is M. Beernaert, who objects strenuously to the military part of the scheme on the ground of excessive expenditure. He dwells persistently on the fact that there are now six millions of men un- der arms in Europe, and that the pub lie debt has doubled since the Franco German war. He refers to the coming Hague Conference, at which the two principal questions for discussion are the arrest of armaments and the rights of neutrals, and takes the logical po- sition that Belgium as a neutral coun- try ought to set an example to the rest of the world by limiting her mill itary budget. The prolongation of the debate is causing serious apprehension in shipping circles at Antwerp. At the recent meeting of the Chamber of Con- merce a resolution was passed deplor- ing the delay in beginning the maritime part of the scheme, and declaring that the present situation if unduly prolong- ed will threaten Antwerp's commercial supremacy.
 It isn't probable that M. Beernaert

What can be done is indicated by what was done at Burlington, Iowa, the other night, when five children on a "double-ripper" ran beneath a fast freight train. They came down steep hill at great speed and failed to see the signal set against them at the railroad crossing at the bottom. They shot be- tween the front and rear trucks of a car and no one was injured. Both the "double-ripper" and the fast freight kept right on going, there being neither time nor occasion for any dispute about the right of way.
