a Eina SAVAGE Custom.

The untutored mind of the Indian
or savage often appears strange to
us. but there is sometimes reason in
what at first sight seems eccentric. A
South African tribe has an effectual
method of dealing with bores, which
might be adopted by western people.
This simple tribe considers long
speeches injurious both to the orator
and his hearers. so to protect both
there is an unwritten law that every
public orator must stand on one leg
only when he is addressing an audi
ence. AS soon as he has to place the
other leg on the ground his Grafton Is

orchards and these now have bear

The majority OF Indians. however, nm
ally sold their lands and many dissi-
pated their money. while others have
saved little 60 carry them through old
age.
In the vicinity Of Lake Chelan the
government has taken charge Of the
disposal OF the Indian lands and the
money received from the sale has been
safely Invested in demonstrating prop
erty In the city of Wenatchee and In
the town OF Chelan. The Wapato lands
lying on the shore Of Lake Chelan, are
acknowledged TO be the best in that
section and only recently did they pass
into the hands OF the white man, TO
undergo the marvellous change brought
about at great expense through a large
irrigation project.
The Indians i'm the Wenatchee sec
ton are not given 10 labor, being far
more willing TO live in the wigwam OF
their fathers and catch salmon, hunt
fish and pick wild huckleberries and
other native foods that their ancestors
thrived upon. Nearly all of the lndi-
ans are Catholics, due to the energetic
efforts made by Catholic missionaries
along the Columbia river many years
ago. A Catholic school established In
Okanogan county twenty-five years
ago for the Indians stil thrives and
many Of the present day Indians are
able to read and write, due to their at
tendance at that school.

DECAY OF THE TEETH.
Lime Starvation the Basic Cause, Says
a Chemist.

Lime Starvation the Basic Cause, Says
a Chemist.
"The almost universal decay Of the
teeth is proof positive that our nation
is suffering lime starvation" writes a
chemistry lecturer in the Dietetic and
HYGIENE Gazette.
"Our dentists prescribe tooth washes
and tooth pastes, advocate local hygi-
enc, ill cavities and fit bridges, and
all this time ignore the fact that the
basic cause is lime starvation.
Dentists will tell you that the sugar
you take in your mouth acts directly
upon your teeth. Dentists shut their
eyes to the evident fact that decay
starts first in the pulp beneath the In
tact enamel and honeycombs the in
terror tooth until the shell-like bridge
of enamel breaks beneath the strain.

ton against the external attacks or
acids and sugar. ] have immersed
sound teeth for months in a lolution
of fruit acids and sugar and have
been unable TO detect any erosion OF
either the enamel or the pulp.

cium of the blood. and the blood re-
taliates by sapping the soluble from
