What need have souls to cry for freedom,
when the shackles were loosened on reH-
gipn's atoning tree?
She Is right when she says sorrow will
visit the minds of those who send these
writings broadcast throughout the land.
We leave them to a merciful God. as only
He could counsel such. Granted even that
the writer IS sane, when people are mar
row and weak enough to do such IN
Christian things in life, sometimes their
very weakness helps TO save them. for
the ways of the Almighty are not always
our way. and the very fact of their in
sultiug their Divine Saviour has caused
many a Catholic upon receiving these
anonymous letters to whisper a prayer
, not OF threats, but Of mercy for the en-

IN conclusion she says;
Away with such creeds to the rag

When poultry shows were first held
few years ago they were very small az
fairs. usually pulled of IN some empty
.storeroom or other building that could be
hired cheap. Five or six exhibitors would
enter from 50 to 300 fowls. and then dig
down in their pockets to make good the
shortage in expenses. Now 1t Is different.

INDIAN LODGES.
Homes Of the Savages In the Days Of
the Buffalo.

Homes Of the Savases In the Days Of
the Buffalo.
Willie in buffalo days some of the
wild Indians of the plains occupied per-
manent dwellings during a part of the
year. there were others who lived who'll
ly in movable lodges.
These were made of buffalo skins
tanned white and sewed together. They
were Of different sizes. the poor occu-
pying smaller lodges. while the wealthy
man, he who owned many horses, very
likely had large family and required
a larger lodge. The size of mans
lodge was to some extent an indication
of his wealth. Two horses were need
ed to drag the poles of a large lodge
and one to carry the lodge itself, three
horses for the transportation of the
dwelling alone, to say nothing Of the
other property and the different mem
bers of the family.
A lodge Of moderate size required
eleven skins. and eighteen poles were
needed to set it up. A sixteen skin
lodge required twenty-five poles. The
larger the lodge the greater was the
number Of poles needed. From the
fact that they used an unusual number
of poles in setting up their lodges 1t re-
suited that the Cheyennes had well
stretched. nice looking lodges.
The northern Cheyennes declare that
an odd number of hides was always
used for the best lodges. and the num-
Der might range from eleven to twenty
one. The skins were sewed together
with sinew thread. First. of course.
the hides must be tanned. the hair re-
moved and the skin softened. Then
the Cheyenne woman held a sewing
bee which was not unlike the bees
Of our ancestors In the early days OF
this country. She invited her friends
to come and help her sew her lodge
and provided them with refreshments
Among them was always one woman
especially skillful in cutting out the
lodges, and she fitted the skins together
before the women began to sew them

HOLDING A CAMERA.
Some Practical Suggestions to the Be-
ginner In Photography.

One Of the most important lessons
for beginner to learn is to hold the
camera in the proper position during
exposure. Whenever there are corners
or buildings or other objects which
give vertical lines the camera must be
held absolutely level. If this Is rot
appear to be falling either backward
or forward. according to the way in
which the Gamers was tilted.
There are times. however. when the
camera may be tilted to an advantage.
In some cases it Is an absolute neces-
sity. For example. in photographs Of
clouds. waterfalls. balloons, etc, the
camera may point award. while in
taking pictures Of people winning
or bathing. children at work or play.
etc. it may be pointed downward.
Very successful photographs Of
prominent speakers. parades. crowds,
etc, have been taken when the camera
was upside down. 1t makes no differ
ence in the negative whether the cam
era is right side up or not By holding
the camera in the way suggested many
a photographer has secured good pic
lures. while others who tried to use
the camera in the usual way made alb
solute failures.
Often by holding the camera by the
side OF the body and pointing It back
ward one may secure pictures Of chill
dren at play and Of older people In
natural poses without the knowledge
Of any members Of the group
Another warning to beginners is nee
essary. Do not try to take time ex-
posture while holding the camera in the
hand Even II the camera Is held
against the breast and respiration stop
ped the action Of the heart is sufficient
to cause the box to vibrate and spoil
the picture.-Circle Magazine.
