And If the truth were known It is

instead Of the children's "desarvin' ="
that is the cause Of the "whuppin'."
There are many women who would
be greatly incensed II they were told
that they were no better than the big

That woman felt good and cross. and

THE PIPE OF PEACE.
Etiquette Of the Calumet Observed

Etiquette Of the Calumet Observed by
the American indian.
When you read IN account Of the
conclusion of a treaty with the In
dians you are pretty sure to hnd that
the calumet was brought out and hand
ed around. The calumet is pipe Of
peculiar construction. The bowl Is Of
red sandstone. and the stem is Of reed.
about two and half feet long. The
stem is decorated with women's hair
and feathers. which hang from it like
a fringe.
This pipe is the famous pipe Of
peace" used by the American Indian.
After n treaty llas been concluded the
Pipe Is produced and filled with to-
bacco. 1t is then handed to the repre-
sentatives Of tho party with whom the
treaty has been made. and they must
take at least one Whit OF it. 1t is
afterward passed around among the
Indians present. who also take a Whit
of it. and that ceremonial ratifies and
makes sacred the compact that has
just been entered into. The passing
around Of the calumet is an act of
hospitality. ard refusal to take it is
considered a dire offense. - Chicago

THE GHOST At THE FEAST.
What the Ensign Saw and What Hap
pened After Dinner.

what the Ensign Saw and What Hap
pened After Dinner.
IN THE Story Of My Life" by Mr.
Augustus Hare, is told the following
creepy story:
A regiment was passing through Der
byshire on its way to fresh quarters in
the north. The colonel. as they stayed
for the night in one Of the country
towns, was invited to dine ut a coun-
try house in the neishborhood and to
bring any one he liked with him. Con-
seQuently he took with him n young
ensign for whom he had a great fancy.
They arrived. and it was large party,
but the lady Of the house did not ap-
pear till just Us they were going in to
dinner and when she appeared was so
strangely distrait and preoccupied that
she scarcely attended to anything that
was said to her
At dinner the colonel observed that
his young companion scarcely ever
took his eyes OF the lady Of the house,
staring Mt her in way which seemed
at once rude and unaccountable. It
made him observe the lady herself. and
attend to anything said by her neigh.
bors on either side Of her. but rather
seemed. In a manner quite unaccount
uble. to be listening to some one or
something behind her.
As soon as dinner was over the youns
ensign came to the colonel and said
"Oh, do take me away: I entreat you
to take me away from this placer
The colonel said: Indeed. your con.
duct Is so very extraordinary and un.
pleasant that l quite agree with you
that the best thing we can do Is to 60
away" And he made the excuse OF
his young friend being Ill and ordered
their carriage.
When they had driven some distance
the colonel asked the ensign for an ex.
PLANTATION Of his conduct He said that
he could not help it. During the whole
OF dinner he had seen a terrible black
shadowy figure standing behind the
chair Of the lady of the house, and II
had seemed to whisper to her and she
to listen to It. He had scarcely told
this when Z man on horseback rods
rapidly past the carriage. and the
colonel, recognizing one Of the servants
Of the house they had just left. called
out to know If anything was the mat
ter.
''Oh. don't stop me, sir.' he shouted
II am going for the doctor! My lady
has tylrt r,-A 49, ..-~,.~.

HUNTING THE RHEA.
Ostrich like Bird Furnishes Exciting
Sport In PATAGONIA.

Ostrich like Bird Furnishes Exciting
Sport In Patagonia.
Down in Patagonia one Of the prin-
cipal sports is the chase Of the rhea.
member Of the ostrich family. but not
quite so large as the ostriches we see
in the circuses and the geological gar
dens. The bird, however. Is a swift
runner and can set a fast pace for
horse or a greyhound. 1t has also
some sagacity. for frequently it will
double on its course and sometimes In
that way succeeds in eluding its pur-
suers altogether. The requisites for
the rhea hunter nre a horse. a fast dog
and a boIa. The dog finds the scent
Of the bird. and the hunter pursues as
fast as lie can on the horse. When he
comes close enough he makes use Of
the bola. This instrument is made Of
two or three balls Of lead or stone at
tached to a throng which is six or
eight feet long. When it Is hurled at
the fleeing bird the balls wind about
the part where the bola strikes and
serve to impede its progress. The
and dispatch the rhea.
When the bird sees that it is in dan
ger often it will crouch down flat on
the ground and stretch its neck out
under the grass and wait until the
dogs pass. If the wind Is blowing
against the scent this ruse often saves
the life Of the game. If it is discov-
cred it usually Is so startled that it
makes no effort to escape. The rhea
will run for FIVE or six miles on a
stretch. and it gives dogs and riders
all they can do to keep up with It,
But when the game is captured the
hunters feel that the chase Is worth
while, for the wings Of the birds are
not unlike turkey meat in favor. and
the meat OF the thigh has a taste not
unlike that Of horsedesh, which con-
noisseurs pronounce very fine.
