Indians have ever possessed such sunf. Now have you ever heard of the Tillimock tribe of Indians? Probably not, and few others have ever heard of them. The reason is that the tribe is one of the very ancient ones and as far as has been discovered there are only two or three and possibly only one, living de- seendant of that once populous people. So the legacy of S10,5o0, guarded in the treasure house of the United States, may possibly fall to one man. At any rate, it will go to only very small family group, as the Tilimock tribe, as far as has been ascertained, is one of the most exclusive old Indian families in the United States. The matter has not yet been run to earth, but the House commit- tee on Indian affairs has been working on it and unless the last Tillimock war rior returns to Gitche Manito, 6 Mighty, before the laws delay permits of the payment of this long standing eaim the Tillimocks will come into their own.

Medical authorities" are continually discovering something new in regard to the ailments and diseases the flesh is heir to- Their latest discovery Is that writer's cramp'' and other conditions of muscular paralysis are actually due, not to the tiring of the muscles. but to brain flag. It appears that the particular part of the brain which controls special com l,inations of muscle action. such as the movements of writing or the working of telegraph key, tends to become more quickly exhausted in some persons than others. Such exhaustion leads to a state il. which the brain is actually unable to send out It's necessary messages to the hands and fingers to write, tap key. hold a violin bow, and other similar ac- tions of the fingers. It is declared fur ther that once the nerve cells the bat teries of the brain. get run down, 1t is not easy to restore their energy This new view of the matter is interesting. Heretofore it has been held that ali troubles of the kind were due simply to overtiring of the muscles concerned. But now that the new field of investigation is opened. undoubtedly the savants will elean great deal of knowledge concern ing nerves and brain. This subject, like that of the stomach and digestion, is still tn it's infancy

FatherIess Young Girl

"Is there among your many friends a lady of refinement and means, one who would enjoy the company and also sup plv the needs of young girl of 15? She will be IS in August, and has always had the surroundings of refinement, but has lost her father, a sister, and her uncle within a short time. Her mother Is in poor health. References as to birth, breeding, and excellent lineage can be supplied The young girl is bright. lively, and at the age when she can appreciate travel and society. MRS. K,
 The inquiry is somewhat singular at the flrst-and second-reading.
 Stripped of verbage, it means that the young girl, fatherless and without means of supporting herself and invalid mother, wishes to be adopted legally by woman of wealth, who can give her the luxuries to which she has been accustomed. One can hardly exaggerate the miseries of slch depriyation as faces her in the cir cumstances A lad of 16, thus rudely cast upon his own resources, can fight his way 10 independenee What can a young, ten derly nlrtured girl undertake except wor< for which she has had no previous tram ing and which will for many months yleio the verest pittance?
 Talk of making her living and leading an independent life sounds well. But to fiji the back to the burden laid sudenly unon it is not the work of day or of year.
 wish our thoughtful correspondents would discuss the possibilities of what IS not a hypothetical case, nor, I add sadly. so uncommon as to excite surprised com uent. The wheel of fortune whirls no- where else so giddily as in our country

 All the inquiries tending to the employ ment of young girls who are treated as one of the family savor of return to the wholesome days of household help who were virtually part of the home they helped to make. I say wholesome De- cause I compare the old custom with the ramp and rush of nomadic tribes through the American household that wreck fami- ly peace and comfort.
