Seminole Indians Taken
Under Uncle Sans Wing
in Florida Everglades

In the least known wilderness Of
America. the Everglades OF Florida,
where no white man can find his way
ungulded, 900 full-blooded Seminole
Indians have az last been officially
discovered" Ever since the Indian
war In 1912 the Indians In Florida
have not been recognized by the gov
eminent or the state. They were sup.
posed to have been removed to west
ern reservations or hunted and shot by
white traders who coveted their land.
But a remnant OF the great Seminole
tribe persisted In Florida, eludlng the
government agents and retreating foot
by foot before white people who claim
ed to have purchased their lands, I'LL
they finally made their homes In The
maze Of unexplored swamps, studded
with thousands of luxuriously vege-
tated islands. which form the Ever.
glades. The COVE rnment finally has
been persuaded to grant them 100000
acres OF land for an Indian reservation
under an Indian commissioner.
The Semlnoles live In an absolutely
primitive state, In matched huts. They
are afraid Of the camera, they wonder
ut the telephone, the automobile, the
train and the commonest conveniences
They are suspicious Of the white man
and his government. Yet when on 0c-
caslonal trips to the villages they
learned Of the war with Germany they
showed themselves no slackers.
They are a remnant of few thou
sand Semlnoles who disappeared into
the Everglades when the government
agents started to move them west.

False interpretations Of
Providence and Wonders

We are guilty of false interpreta-
lions of providence and wonders when
we either Ilake those 20 be miracles
that are none, or when we put false
sense upon those that are real; when
we make general events to have a
private aspect, or particular accidents
to have some universal Specification.
Though both these may seem at first to
have the strictest appearance of re-
llgion, yet they are the greatest usur-
pations Of the secrets of the Almighty
and objectionable presumptions on his
high prerogatiyes of punishment and
reward.-Thon.as Sprat.

Ourselves.

Man can do a great deal with him
elf, but he must not expect to do too
much with others. The trouble with

with the others because they seem
the easier and more pressing prob
lem. Their faults stand out more
plainly to our view, and they so evil
IDENTIFY need reforming that we forget
ourselves in our zeal.

Use Two Hooks Instead Of
One in Hanging Pictures

Never fasten picture wire to pic
lure so that, beginning at either side
of the picture in the back, it comes
up to the hook on the moldlng in such
a way that a triangle is formed. While
not exactly a part Of picture framing,
the fastening Of the wire or cord Is
most essential, for even the most beau
tIfully framed picture should be so
hung that the actual mechanism Of
hanging lis as inconspicuous as pos
sIble. Therefore use two wires, fast
ening them so that they are parallel
with the sides Of the frame, and use
two hooks at the molding instead of
one. If you can use cord or wire
which blends In with the wall itself
50 much the better

WORDS OF WISDOM

Real courtesy Is not a mere
outside polish. a mask assumed
for a purpose, but is product.
a manifestation Of the true feel
ings OF the human heart.
The great thing is not to be
discouraged by seeming reverse
or relapse. The victory Is to en-
durance. and there would be no
endurance II we were always
gaining.
Fear to spend what we have.
nobly and on fit subjects. is a
mean kind Of thing. hut fear to
squander and to waste Is whole
some and righteous. Economy
is not miserllness, and there is
n grandeur about moderation
which is wanting In excess.
Poverty must be a crime-at
least, 1t is punishable by hard
labor.
