USED POISON OF RATTLEsNAkE.
Preparation That Made War Arrows of
 Cherokee indians Deadly.

An old Cherokee Indian recently gave away the secret how the Indians of olden times used to poison their ar row heads for war purposes or for killing bears, according to the Denver Field and Farm They took a fresh deer liver, fastened it to long pole. and then went to certain places where they knew they would find rattle snakes in abundance. About midday the rattlers are all out of their dens, coifed up in the cooking sun. The bucks would poke the first rattler they found with the liver on the long pole. 4 rattler, unlike common snakes, always shows fight in preference to, escaping. The snake would thus re peatedly strike at the liver with it's fangs until its poison was all used up, whereupon it would quit striking and try slowly to move on The bucks would then hunt up another rattler and repeat the performance, keeping up the work until the liver was well soaked with snake poison. Then the pole was carried home and fastened somewhere in an upward position until the liver became as dry as a bone. The liver was then pounded to fine powder and placed in buckskin bag, to be used as needed for their arrows. This powder would stick like glue to any moistened surface and was death to any creature which it entered on arrows.

kILAuEA WORTH A VISIT.
HawsIl's Show Volcano Is Ore of the
 Worlds Wonders.

kilauea, the spur of the great Mauna Loa. is well-behaved volcano, as 1t can be visited with perfect safe ty. even If in eruption--as it is from time to time-when exhibitions of ac- tiyity are given that are worth travel ing thousands of miles to witness. This volcano is on the island of Ha- waii, and the shortest possible trir that can be made to it form Honolulu covers four days. This allows only half day at the volcano, which is much too short a time to study the workings of what is considered one of the worlds wonders. A week at least should be given to the trip. The sea voyage is always more or less rough, but the boats, although small, are comfortable. From Hilo, where the water trip ends, there is a railroad ride of about IS miles through the big olaa sugar plantation. This is follow ed by a stage run of II miles over a road leading through a perfect fairy land of tropical foliage. the highway being lined on either side with roses. magnolias and ferns, which last grow to the size of trees without losing any of their delicate beauty. Returning by the other route, there is a stage drive of 35 miles over lava roads and across the great flow which ran into the sea from Mauna Loa several years ago.-Leslie's Weekly.

One by Gen. Miles.

Gen. Miles used to tell of a surgeon at certain post during the civil war who was chaffed great deal for his fowery and extravagant style of ex- pression, both written and oral. On one occasion it appears that the col onel of the regiment had appropriated the surgeons tent for a mess-table, without the usual formality, of stat ing his intentions. fWhereupon the surgeon sent complaint to the of ficer in command. Among other things he said: '1 have not so much as fly to interpose between my head and the star-decked heavens above me" This unique document followed the regular routine and eventually re- turned to the unfortunate surgeon with the following endorsement: Col. Brown will cause a fly to be inter- posed between the head of the com plainant and the star:decked heavens above him as soon as possible. II lustrated Sunday Magazine.

First Idea of the Telegraph.

Long before Prof. s. F. B. Morse had perfected his great invention the word telegraph" was used for a sort of semaphore. In the French revolu- ton telegraph" assisted by tele- scopes, was devised to carry news over immense distances. Forty years before this time, however, there was published the first detailed scheme for communication by means of electricity It is outlined in a letter to the Scots magazine. written February 1, 1753, from Renfrew and signed "C. M" This suggestion was to transmit charge from the conductor of an electrical machine at the sending station along an insulated wire to the receiving ma chine, the presence of the charge be- ing indicated by the behavior of a light pith ball or the passage of a spark" Each letter of the alphabet was to have a separate wire, so that any word might be spelled out and any message sent.

MODERN WORK WILL NOT LAST.
Newspapers and Books Printed Te
 Day Have Short Lives.

''The men who wrote history on tablets of stone in ages gone had . difficult task to perform. and had to cultivate the habit of brevity," says writer in & German paper, but what they wrote was preserved. It will be different with the newspapers and books of the present time. The paper upon which they are printed will dis integrate in a few years. and the records, historical, scientific and liter ary, will become dust. saw two papers last week which told the whole story. One contained an ac- count of the death of Napoleon Bona parte t was printed in 1921. was in state of perfect preservation, and looked as though it might last, with ordinary care, hundred years. The other paper was kept because its leading article described the surren- der of Sedan, which had taken place q day before Although 1t had been printed nearly 50 years later. the Sedan paper had to be handled care fully to prevent it's tearing in the creases. One of these papers was printed on old-fashioned paper, and the other on the modern kind. With the two specimens before me can not refrain from urging once more that q few numbers of all books and enough for all first-class libraries, be printed on good paper for the benefit of those who will live after us"

TOOK HIS OWN FROM RoBsgR.
How a Pilgrim Got Back His Stolen
 Purse in Church.

From Czenstochowa, the Mecca of Polish pilgrims, comes an amazing story of coincidences. A pilgrim went to one of the priests and complained that some thief had stolen his purse while he was in church, and asked for money. The priest replied that he had no money and that the best thing for the pilgrim tc do was to try to find the thief. 'I shall go into the church and steal money from some body else" said the pilgrim, flor I have nothing to go home with" He went into the church and seeing a man in the crowd with wallet on his back slipped his hand into it and pulled out his own stolen purse, with the exact sum he had left in it. He was so glad to find his money that he hurried off to tell the priest and the thief got away.

AZTEC IN TEXAS.

SAN ANTONIO. Texas, Jan. 29.- Evidences of Aztec occupation of this part of Texas were unearthed yester- day on the ranch of Henry Schneider schnur, sixteen miles north of San Antonio. A rounded mound rising in the midst of a level valley was op- ened and skeletons and other relics of undoubted antiquity were brought to light. Excavation has been slow owing to the fact that the mound is found to be overlaid with rock at a depth of three feet. Much interest is manifested in the discovery, and an anthropologist from the university of Texas at Austin will be asked to examine the mound. Indications point to possible important scientific ad- dition to current knowledge of pre- historic Texas.

Huuo Wrote for All.

wrote for all; with a profound love for my country, but without preoccu. pying myself more for France than for any other people. Little by little, as l advanced in life, grow simpler and become more and more the patriot of humanity. Besides, this is the tendency of our epoch. the law of development of the French revolution; and, in order to correspond to the per petual extension of civilization, books must cease to be exclusively French, Italian, German, Spanish, English, to become European, and, still more, human. Hence a new logic of art and certain necessities of composition which modify everything, even the conditions-so narrow in the past-of taste and language, which must now. like everything else, be broadened.- From Victor Hugo on Les Miser. ables' in the Century

~Time. the ereat Healsr.v

A doctor who had treated patient for long time without giving relief finally wrote to him that he could do no more, and that tempus edax rerum was the only remedy. The patient i'm mediately went to drug store and ap- piled for the remedy. The druggist gave him bottle of some kind of mix ture and charged him large sum for it. After the patient had taken the compound for some time he met his doctor and thanked him for the won- derfuI prescription, which had cured him. The druggists trick was dis covered and the patient sued him for the money spent on the bogus medi- cine.

Trend of Civilization.

had thought that civilization meant the attainment Of peace and order and freedom, of good will be- tween man and man, of the love of truth, and the hatred of injustice, and by consequence the attainment of the good life which these things breed, a life free from craven fear, but full of incident; that was what thought it meant, not more stuffed chairs and more cushions, and more carpets and gas. and more dainty meat and drink and therewithal more and sharper difference between class and class William Morris.

Tact in Introductions.

In the desire to help in starting a conversation, when presenting people to each other, don't overdo the matter. Leave them as soon as possible. Let them choose their own topic and make their own discoveries. Each will find the other vastly more interesting un- der these circumstances. Especially. when introducing anybody of whom you happen to have high opinion, don't preface the presentation with laudatory remarks. They will iavar- iably silence the most willing talker.

There is widespread opinion that history is something apart, something that gets itself done whether or no, and windy orators have been known to appeal to it's judgment. But it will have to be written by men who have been trained to interpret it impar- tially-Uncle Remus' Magazine.
