wis, the West Wind. But one day the
West Wind found the maiden lying
among the lilies, and he wooed her
with such sweet words and soft cares
ses that she forgot the warnings of
her mother. She bore him sor, Hia-
watha, and then, because the West
Wind forgot her, she died. Hiawatha,
who is known among the different
tribes as Michabou, Chiabo, Manobo-
20 and Tarenyawagon, was reared by
his grandmother, Nokomis. She taught
him to understand the voices of the
woods and waters. and told him the
legends. which he, in turn, gave to
all the Indians. These legends tell
how the Aurora Borealis is the death
dance of the spirits, the brilliant
lights being the plumes and war clubs
of the warriors; that the Milky Way
is the broad white road of the ghosts
through the sky, and that the rainbow,
is composed of the flowers that have
persisted upon earth. Hiawatha passed
much OF his time alone in the woods,
where he learned the language of
birds and beasts and played so sweet
ly on his flute that they would follow
him wherever he went.-Craftsman.

fruits, consisting Of stewed berries,
eaten either hot or iced, without too
much sugar; some kind of well-cooked
hot bread; coffee if the patient likes
it, and little meat if she wants it.
At noon the rednosed victim can
eat all the vegetables she wants, pro-
v1dlng they are thoroughly we'll
cooked. She must not eat hard, indi-
gestible beans, peas and corn. All
must be cooked until soft, as they cook
vegetables in the South. She can wind
up with crackers and stewed fruits.
What to Eat for the Skin.
Raw fruits are not bad for the girl
with the red nose, providing she does
not eat too much Of them.
For her principal meal, the red
nosed girl may eat a salad, with plen-
ty of oil in it and very little lemon
juice. She may eat white meat OF
fowl or fish; and she may eat potatoes
cooked and then cooked again in
cheese or cream or any other way she
may like them.
A Mans Complexion Diet.
There is complexion diet for the
pale man and the pale woman. Both
are in need of something that makes
blood, and for them there is the corn
starch diet. One must live upon corn
starch. Cream with eggs beaten into
it, mayonnaise dressing, nearly all
eggs and oil, and upon the incest of
sweet fruits. In little while the

easy to exercise off the fat.

BEAUTY FOOD x
FOR MIDSUMMER
Diets Recommended to Those Who Want to Haze a
Fresh, Clear, Summer Skin

II am on a complexion diet" said
the prettiest girl of the bunch gath
cred upon a corner of the summer
plaza. II am eating things that are
good for my skin-and nothing else,
writes Madame Darcy.
II go upon the principle that beauty
is skin deep. But also believe that
it takes a great deal to keep the skin
nice. eat entirely to please my skin.
If food injure my skin cut item out.
l never eat anything that makes my
nose red or my lips pale. And I give
up all foods that make my arms rough
and my cheeks notified.
"That may seem extreme to some
people who do not know all about it,
But really it is quite in keeping with
the true nature of foods, for foods af-
feet your skin. Last spring ate too
many acids. I mixed my acids up,
putting salad, Strawberries and fruit
punches all together in one meal.
'The result was that my nose broke
out a bright red, and it was weeks
getting toned down again.
Il am eating now for my general
skin. 1t was rough and full of open
pores. But I learned how to subdue
these things, and little by little my
skin is becoming smooth and clear
and free from these awful pores.
For my breakfast i take one acid.

eat them before breakfast. I take
them afterward. It is so stupid to
eat fruit before ones breakfast, 50 the

glasses of clear water before eating,
and then l eat almost anything want.
Then finish my meal with fruit. That
is the French complexion diet.

rangement for me. find that it
agrees with me. I drink all the COT

have it too hot. Very much evil is
done by scalding the lining of the
stomach. never treat my stomach
badly. eat my foods hot, but not
scalding by any means. If food is too
hot to be held in the mouth, it is sure
'ly too hot to be put into the stomach.
The Vienna Complexion Glass.
II have friend who was the color

ders and felt badly all the time. I
found that she was drinking hot
water mornings before breakfast, and.
Womanlike, she was OVERRIDING the

Satisfactory Bankruptcy.

They had peculiar way of going
into bankruptcy among the Marawar-

to the less picturesque method of the
white man. When a man could not
pay his bills he would summon his
creditors. They were ushered into
room in which the Thakur or house
hold god was enshrined, but covered
up with cloth and with the face
turned to the wall, in order that it
might not witness the scene that was
to follow. The insolvent would then,
in garb Of mourning, lie on the floor,
presenting his back to his creditors,
who, on a given signal, would fall on
him with shoes and slippers and be-
labor him til their wrath was exhaust

HIAWATHA LEGEND.

Different Versions in Nearly Every
Indian Tribe.
Different versions of the Hiawatha
legends are found among nearly all
the Indian tribes. In his attributes,
the Indian hero closely resembles the
demi-gods of the Grecian myths, who
slew evil monsters to deliver their
oppressed people. The principal le-
gend. relates that Nokomis, daughter
OF the Moon. was swinging in a rope
of twisted grape vines, surrounded by
her women, when one of them out of
jealousy cut the vine and Nokomis fell
to earth. Hehe she bore daughter
whom she warned against Mudjekee.

the lot of Hungary by the will of the
late Count A. Karolyi. The count was
seventy-five years of age, and he left

thing to take the Irish complexion diet
l am going to take it up for month
and note my improvement. The idea
is to eat cereals without too much
cream upon them and with no sugar at
all. The pure sweet cereal is the
best. Then you eat vegetables by the
quantity, mostly cooked. You do not
eat a great deal of corn, but you go in
for spinach, which is the great beauty
food. You also eat great deal of
fresh cheese, which is also the diet OF
Southern Italy. The peasants live on
it, work hard, thrive and have lovely
skins. ->-.: >.-~,-.- 4.
