left their handsome home on 9th steet
for a run into the country. Less than
half minute later they had turned
north on D street and met a south bound

of two dogs which were in the tonneau
of; the machine leaped into the front
part and 80 interferred with the steer
ing geer that Mr.. Stauts was unable to

No Longer Papooses

The teachers had been telling the
children of the North American Indian,
and during the course Of her remarks
stated that an Indians wife is called
"squaw." ..'
"Now, children, she continued, if
an Indian mamma is called a 'squaw,
what do you think they call the little
Indian babiesT
A sober youth in the rear of the room
replied:
eff the mammas are called squaws,
guess they call the babies squawkers. >

Strang Ideas Of Hereafter

According to the best authorities the
aboriginal Indian of America is gen
orally without any belief in state Of
future punishment The happy hunting
grounds is reserved for the good; that
is, the brave. AS to where the wicked
go they are silent. The Ojibways,
however, believe that the souls of the
wicked follow wide path to the west
and enter a long lodge after crossing a
deep and rapid river on a'huge snake.
Here they are forever haunted by the
ghosts of those persons or things
animate and inanimate, which they
have injured.
The old Laplanders believed in Il hell
Of cold and ice. Laplanders of the ex-
treme north, while denying themselves
any future life, believed that the souls
of bears went to sort of bear hell,
where they were forever tortured by
packs of ravenous hounds.
The Hottentots are wholly without
belief in any hereafter. though their
lives on earth are made miserable by
the interference of many devils.
The Basutos believe that the souls of
the wicked futter forever blindly
through the jungles of the earth, knock
ing their heads against trees and walls
swirling into dark marshes, and suffer
ing such other casualties and hardships
as would naturally befall sightless fly
ing creature.
The hell of the New Guinea native is
a womanless region, wherein the I'M
fortunate soul wanders forever in search
of mate.

eating the Midland Valley road. One
day the surveying corps stopped at

The Arkansan came out, and the
surveyors asked him II they could get
q drink. ~ D.
Certainly, boys" he said. TIL give
you the best I've got, and the best I've
got is buttermilk."

said. and the old farmer gave each Of

Its mighty good" said one Of the
surveyors to McIoud.
