INDIAN SIGN LANGUAGE.
Members Of Every Different Tribe Can
Read These Signals.

A white man who visits foreign ma
ton finds Ii hard and sometimes i'm
possible to make his most ordinary
wants known. The red man has no
such difficulty. The problem OF a uni
versal language was solved centuries
ago by the savage inhabitants OF this
western world.
Should an Indian from northern Alas.
ka 20 to Patagonia he could by means
of this universal language converse,
with his southern brethren almost as
easily as he could with his neighbors
at home. That would also be the case
IL he visited Central America or met
the tribesmen of our own western prai.
ries and mountains.
When this language was invented no
one knows. but every Indian learns 1t
In addition to his own. Recently two
chiefs of different tribes met In the
Geographical society rooms In Wash
ington and held conversation that
lasted nearly three hours, and yet nei-
, Their one knew word Of the others
language.
This universal language is, of course,
made up oil signs. For example, IL an
Indian is passing through strange
country and sees other Indians at a
distance he makes the 'peace sign
that is, he holds up his blanket by two
corners so that it covers his whole fig
ure. The same thought is expressed
by extending the hands, palms out
ward, slightly inclined from the face.
ANY Indian would understand either
one of these signs.
Then there are the abstract signs by
which these "savages" can express
their thoughts with regard to the
Great Spirit. heaven, good, evil, lie
and death, sickness. health, riches and
poverty. Life is expressed by drawing
an imaginary thread from the mouth
and death by chopping this thread off.
Another sign for death is to hold the
tips of the fingers of one hand against
the palm of the other and let them
gradually slip downward and at last
drop beneath the palm.
Most white people think that the In
dian word of greeting. How" is mere
] ly the Authorization of the question,
"How are your But that is not so.
The word is really "aou," which means
brother" or friend" So when he
comes up and growls out his seemingly
inquisitive How" he is not asking
after your health. but telling you that
he is friend.-Youth's Companion.

the criticisms of Congressman Gard
ner, of Massachusetts, and others on
the navy and Secretary Daniels, which
seems to knock the props from under
those who, for party purposes. would
discredit this country in every way
in the eyes of its own people and of
foreign nations. He says that those
who make the charge that Secretary
Daniels has demoralized the navy are
guilty of falsehood and misrepresenta.

INDEPENDENTS FOR WILSON.
Irvine Fisher, professor of political
economy in Yale University, who says
he is an independent in politics, has
after a study of the men and the con
ditions, announced that it is TO the
best interest of the country that Pres
ident Wilson be elected and that he
expects independent voters in general
done so much for the country. His
reasons are that Wilson has kept the
country out of war with honor, forced
a recognition of neutral rights upon
the high seas and turned a deaf ear
to the interests, foreign and local,
who would drench Mexico with the
blood of our soldiers to make their in.
vestments profitable. A change Of ad
ministration may plunge us into war
while the four months that would in
tervene between election ald inaugu
ration would paralize foreign policy
entirely.
President Wilson has succeeded in
accomplishing more real good for the
country than any administration in
generation. and would be in better po
sition to accomplish more than the ad.
ministration of a man who offers moth
ing constructive, but contents himself
with criticisms and abuse OF bis bet
ters. Prate as he does of other things,
the real aim of the old guard is pro.
lection which II would confound by
vague campaign utterances on Amer.
icanism" to capture votes.
The professor has diagnosed the
case most correctly, as all will find
who give the subject consideration.
Independents and Progressives owe II
to the President to do all In their
power to retain man in Office who Is
SO thoroughly consesrated to duty and
humanity and accord him the plaudit
of well done. thou good and faithful
servant"
