consideration for others and high
ideals of life, characteristics pos
sossad by her husband, are essentials
in domestic felicity, is the opinion Of
Mrs. Chivvara.
Centuries of outdoor life develop in
tbp Indian strains of poetry and a
1--we of the ideal, and these prove a
magnet to the woman brought up
in the confirming walls of civilization.
That is Mrs. Chivvaria's explana-
fon of the happiness which she has
known with her Indian husband, and
which she declares has been expert
enced by the few other American
women who have married out of their
race into the race of redmen.
1--WE can learn a great deal from
the Indian" she said. 1.-The habit
Of considering the feelings of others
is prime trait with them. can
Illustrate that by a personal instance.
Before I was married Mr.. Chivvaria
was asked by a friend to give his gen
eral Impressions of Denver and of the
way Of life of the people. He shook
his head, saying he wouldn't like to
do that, because something that he
said might hurt some ones feel
ings.
Denver Was OFF.
Yet the Denver people had said
the bitterest things about him. They
apparently uttered any opinion that
came to their lips and would sound
sensational in the papers. Their say
ngs were printed; the papers went
down to the Pueblo, from which my
husband came, and were read by his
people and repeated. You cannot
imagine how he suffered and his fam
ily as we'll. And still we send gov
eminent teachers among the Indians
to teach them to like us. Isn't it
rather a joke in one way?"
After their marriage Mrs. Chivar-
ria and her husband lived for a while
in Aew Mexico, then returned here,
because the wife was homesick. They
have lived here ever since. The In
dian was restless until finally he
found employment where he could
work in the open, caring for the
flowers and shrubs.
He is an expert at irrigating and
mas splendid success in raising plants
OF all kinds. His wife seys that he is
very adaptable and has adjusted him
sell with ease to new ways of living.
