If you abide by my advice" says Miss
Kathryn Fite, an Indian maiden who
has arrived here from Tahlequah, Ok.
iahoma.
What is more, this daughter of the
red man says that by living up to
these ten rules the daughter of The
paleface can control the heart of man.
"The fact is" says Kamamah. "the
squaw Knows how to live. With her
brisk, healthy, Il should worry man
ner, no wonder she is delight and re-
lief to even the most fastideous."
There is many an American hus-
band who wculd heave Sigh of relief
and delight on being told that his wife
had turned sQuaw," begins Kamamah.
"Who could blame mar for wanting

can truthfully say that she is in per-
feet health with nothing whatever
the matter with Ter. About one Indian
woman in 1000 can truthfully say that
she is not in perfect health that she
ever suffers a pain or All ache.
"This in itself should be enough to
make white women think, especially

Husbands are lost and never regained

1.-The Indian woman never has cause
to worry about her husbands love. Di-
vorces never occur among us, Simply
because when an Indian selects his
wife he always receives iuil value-a
woman who wears well, who doesn't
require mending or patching even af-
ter fifty years OF married life.
ITO begin with, the American wo-
man talks too much and thinks too
little. She has accomplished the mon
keylike feat Of chatterng without US
ing her mind.
1.-THE Indian wife will go for Lours
without saying word. She gives her
tongue a rest And her mind a treat Of
ten.
1.-The white woman wastes energy
trying to Guido her neighbor socially.
Time and skill that the squaw de-
votes to developing her mind and body
the white woman expends on posing
and giggling for the benefit Of her en-
vious neighbors, who, by the way, real
ly only care for her company when
she has some scandal to peddle.
Indian women mind their own bus
mess and that is the reason they new.
er have gray hairs or wrinkles. A gray
haired Indian is considered a freak
and / remember walking miles TO
gaze on little old squaw whose hair
was just tinged with gray.
"And here's a bit of advice | may
give right here: Even IL the white
woman does live in an apartment
house she can burst forth into an &C.
casional war whoop. BY letting off the
pent up vim even the most happy wo-
man would feel relieved.
eff the cranky neighbor threatens to
summon the police, why put on your
hat and coat and make for the woods.
The walk as well as the whoop will do
you good.
"And IL the spirit moves you, do 9
dance. Don't wait until you dress all
I'D in your evening frock and spend
hours and a fortune getting ready be-
fore you enjoy bunny hug or fox
trot
1.-THE Indian woman Is noted for her
beautiful back, which is strong and
perfect because she taxes it. Sire
makes 1t work, for as you know the
Indian woman carries her baby on her
back. If you don't happen to own
baby fill basket with wood or coal
and strap it across your shoulders.
Work about your home while you car
ny this load just as the squaw does.
The papoose never cries, because the
squaw, being fully capable of becom
ing a mother, has bequeathed it per-
feet health and plenty of good COM
mon sense.
Discard your chair and sit on the
floor. Take your after luncheon beau

your physical condition will improve
rapidly. In addition to feeling more
comfortable you will find yourself los.
ing your little affected maunerisms.
No woman could twitter and gush
when sitting on the floor. The natural
position kills even the forced smile.
