Joined the Arapahoes and lived with
them, told Black Kettle, a Cheyenne in
George Bent's lodge, about having
killed, between the Cimarron and
Beaver creek, a tributary of the north
fork of the Canadian, a buffalo bull
which had only one hind leg. Accord
Ing to Small Eyes story, it did not ap-
pear that the bull had lost one of its
hind legs, but rather that it never had
had more than one. The hind leg was
very large, seemed to be in the mid
die of the body instead Of at one side,
ard there was no sign of any missing
le~. 1t locked as if the two hind legs
which the buffalo ordinarily has had
in some way fused together
The war party with which Small
Eyes was travelling was passing along
near hollow when the bull came up
out of it, and some Of the men ran
ahead, got around it and shot it with
a gun. 1t was not able to run fast,

sewing on a new one after the skirt
has been finished try the following
method: Rip a place in the hem
wide enough to insert calling card
and by slipping the card along be-
tween the outer and inner parts OF
the hem it will prevent the stitches
from showing through on the outer
side. This is Of special benefit when
sewing on thin material.
Do not cook cranberry sauce too
long, and do not add too much
water. The finest sauce can be
made from one quart of cranberrles
with one cupful of water. Boil for
10 minutes, then add two cupfuls of
sugar. Stir well and set away to
cool.
For slight cut there is nothing
better to control the hemorrhage
than common unglazed paper such

Nothing beats the lemon as re-
medal agent. Its daily use saves
many Doctors bills. This does not
mean in the form of lemonade, for
the sugar creates acid. The fruit
should be used without sugar, a half
lemon to a glass of water.
Taken each morning upon arising
this lemon and water help to over
come a sluggish liver and are excel
lent in keeping down a tendency to
too much abundance of flesh. If
one is very stout it may be taken
three Or four times a day with no
injurious effects.
This lemon and water treatment
has been found to be a cure for
malaria in many instances and is
much used in West Indies as
gargle for sore throat. It can be
safely taken even by those with
tendency to acidity.
AS a garnish and favoring the
lemon needs no introduction to the
ordinary housewife. Raw oysters
or tea without slice of lemon are

The pain of a bruised finger will
often be greatly relieved by holding

For earache drop little warm
sweet oil into the ear by means of a
medicine dropper and bandage the

A little oil of cloves rubbed on

When a rooster finds big fat worm
he calls all the hens in the farm yard
to come and share it. A similar trait
in human is to be observed when a
man discovers something exceptionally
good-he wants all his friends and
neighbors to share the benefits Of his
discovery. This is the touch Of nature
that makes the whole world kin. This
explains why people who have been
