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 up.
on the Big Bear, which Indians be.
lieve 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 smelled 1t he turned away.
But in doing so he scratched some of
the blood off the Indians 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 60
ing on hunting expeditions for man
or beast the Indian painted his face
in stripes as a charm against danger.

Coffee Finally Had to Go.

The way some persons cling to'cof-
fee even after they know it is doing
them harm is a puzzler. But it is an
easy matter to give it up for good,
when Postum Food Coffee is PROPER
ly made and used instead.
A girl writes: Mother had been
suffering with ervou headaches for
seven weary years, but kept drinking
coffee.
"One day l asked her why she did
not give up coffee, as a cousin of
mine had done who had taken to
Postum. But mother was such a
slave to coffee she thought it would
be terrible to give it up.
Finally, one day, she made the
change to Postum, and quickly her
headaches disappeared. One morn
ing while she was drinking Postum
so freely and with such relish I asked
for a taste.
That started me on Postum, and
! now drink 1t more freely than I did
coffee, which never m into our
house now.
"A girl friend of mine, n day,
saw me drinking Postum and asked
If it was coffee. l told her 1t was
Postum, and gave her some to take
home. but forgot to tell her how to
make it.
"rhe next day she said she did not
see how ! could drink Postum. /

Capt. Karl Leon, Of the Swedish
Artillery, claims to have made a re.
markable invention for naval war
fare. Hitherto the torpedo and the
sea mine have been separate engines
managed under entirely different con-
ditiors. Capt. Icons invention
blends them into one. He has pro-
duced a torpedo which, while capable
of being discharged from a ships
tubes. and of being useed in all re-
spects like an ordinary torpedo, can
alec be made to serve the purpose
of a mine In the open sea, and in
this way brought to bear against
ships in places at present sheltered
from the danger Of mines. 1t can be
kept at a desired depth for a con-
siderable time.

IN ALASKA.
More Than. $1,000. Now Used by the
Natives-Fifty-T Two Public Schools.

NY Wo PUBIC
More than $4,000 domesticated rein
deer are used by the natives of Alas
ka, according to the repsrt.of the Fed
eral Commissioner of Education, UNI
der whose direction. the Territorial
reindeer service is administered. The
government began supplying reindeer
to the natives of Alaska in 1892. For
a number Of years $4,000 "a appro-
priated for the purpose. The amount
expended on this account was recent
ly reduced to $4,000 a year.
During the fiscal year ended June
80, 1907, the Bureau of Education
maintained fifty-two United States
public schools for natives in Alaska.
Reports have not been received from
four of these schools. In the remain
ing forty-eight the total enrolment
during the year was 2,4S3, and.the av-
erage attendance 1,07G.
Plans are being made for progress
sive notifications in the methods EN-
ployed in the schools in Alaska, with
a view to rendering the natives bet
ter able to care for themselves. Be-
ginnings have been made in industrial
training in some Of the schools, as
well as in connection with the rein
deer herds. 1t is proposed that the
natives be instructed in the best
methods of catching and curing fish,
in caring for all parts of the walrus
and whale that are merchantable, in
the handling of wooden boats, in the
tanning and preparing of skins, in
coal mining and in the elements OF
agriculture.

TOWNS QUILT ON cRATERs.
Garth GIrdied by Three Hundred
Active VoIcanoes.

Active volcanoes.
Some of the wonders OF the volcanic
world were graphically described In
q lecture at the London institution
yesterday by Mr.. w. Herbert Garri'
son, F. r. G. s., who has climbed vol
canoes in all parts Of the world.
THE greatest noise on record" he
said, was made by the eruption oil
Krakatoa, in the Straits of Sunda, be-
tween Java and Sumatra in 1888"
Here are a few striking facts about
the eruption that Mr.. Garrison men
toned:
1t caused a cloud seventeen miles
high.
1t was heard 1000 miles away.
If 1t had taken place in Cornwall II
could have been heard in New York
! Constantinople, St. Petersburg, Cairo
and Greenland.
The velocity of the explosion was
three times that of an army gun.
1t raised tidal waves 100 feet high
that invaded the land for five miles.
1t created dust finer than any rock
can be ground by man.
This dust was carried round the
earth for three years in the air.
1t caused air waves that encircled
the earth seven times.
1t broke windows seven miles dis.
tant.
The volcanoes OF the world form a
tfha1t ~ Arap wound tho earth and
are rarely more than 300 miles frem
the sea. In the few exceptions to this
rule, the volcanoes are near large
sheets of inland water. This tends
to prove that the proximity Of water
is one Of the main factors in the
cause Of e%ruptions, and that 1t Is the
pe~rcolation of water through the
earth's surface that leads to volcanic
activity.
Mr.. Garrison explained what he
meant by the "belt of Are" by showing
a large map of the Pacific Ocean. on
which the volcanic centers were mark
ed, forming a rough circle, beginning
South America and following the coast
line to Alaska, then round by Kan
chatka, Japan and the Sunda Straits
to New Zealand. In the center Of the
circle lies the greatest crater in the
world, in the Hawaiian Islands, which
is nine miles wide.
In this "belt Of fire" are 800 active
volcanoes, which, said Mrs. Garrison,
is a very small number compared
with the number ono active, the
quiescent or extinct volcanoes num-
bering tens of thousands.
Among the towns built on old crat.
ers Mr.. Garrison mentioned Edinburgh
(Arthur's Seat being the remains OF
a volcanic ring), Keswick, Alden, Can.
dy and Auckland.
Brentor, in Devonshire, was at one
time, probably within historic times,
as high as Etna. and Etna is calculat-
ed to have thrown out 1000 cubic
miles of material in historic times.
Among many remarkable photo
graphs shown was one of a boiling
lake in an ice-bound crater, nearly
5000 feet above sea level, in New
Zealand. Since the photograph was
taken the volcano has tossed the lake
into the air.-London Express.

Texas shooting Wonder.

The Worlds Records for wing shooting
with a rife were smashed to flinders in
San Antonio, Texas, recently by Adolph
Topperwein, a native of the Lone Star
State. He shot for ten consecutive days at
III inch wooden blocks thrown in the air
at a distance of 20 feet from him, missing
only 4 out of the first $4,000 and but 9 out
of 1850. During his shooting he made
runs Of IA, $40, Is, $50, 1892 and 10, zig hits
without missing. In doing this wonderful
shooting he used only two % caliber rifles
Winchester repcaters. His ammunition
was OF the smokeless powder variety made
by the Winchester people and famed for its
accuracy and cleanliness.
