''But what of those who went forth

proper one Failures there have been,
sad failures, but failures for which the
colonizers were far more responsible
than the colonists. In far too many
instances the colonizers did not try TO
make farmers Of the refugees as to rid
the city of their presence. They looked
to distance, not to fertility, to cheapness
of land. not to fitness for agriculture.
Some of these unfortunates they planted

Indians and War Paint,

The Indians have a tradition that
tells how the custom Of painting their
faces originated. A certain big chief
while hunting deer was chased by a
lion and fell exhausted, calling upon
the Big Bear, which Indians believe
was the grandfather Of man, to save
him. The Big Bear heard and went to
the mans assistance, scratching his
foot and sprinkling the blood over him.
No animal will eat bear or taste his
blood, and when the lion smeIled It he
turned away. But in doing SO he
scratched some Of the blood OF the In
dams face with his claw by accident.
When he found himself unhurt, the
Indian was SO thankful that he let
the blood dry on his face. With the
marks Of the lions claws this gave the
effect Of stripes, and ever afterward
when going on hunting expeditions for
man or beast the Indian painted his
face in stripes as charm against
danger

surprised to see one Of his women
guests come downstairs several nights
running fill her pitcher from the water
cooler in the hall and return quietly to
her room again. At first he thought
the lady had some special reason for
this queer performance. Then he
thought he had better speak to her.
Accordingly on the fourth or fifth
night he approached her politely, took
the" pitcher from her hands and filed
1t himself.
If you would ring, madam" he said,
"this would always be done for you.
There is no occasion for you ever to
come down yourself for water. A

But have no BELL" said the lady.
"Oh, madam, Of course you have n

And he carried the pitcher up to her
room for her and pointed to the bell
beside her bed.
"That is the BELL" he said.
The lady started in surprise.

The First Fly Fishers.

Doubtless the reason why artificial
flies were originally invented was be-
cause it was impossible to use the
smaller and more delicate natural flies
as bats on the hook. The first fly
fisher cast his eyes about him in search
Of something that would answer in
initiating the flies upon which the trout
were feeding. Feathers were natural
~ the first materials thought of, and
the old red cocks hackle was the first
of all the artificial insects, the old, old
Adam Of them all. The breed has
haan increasing for several hundred
