CHIEF LONGFEATHER'S
7
By Anne Mcqueen in The Youths Companion

The Seminole family, after their first
bountiful meal at the cabin of the Browns,
had become very friendly. Never a week
passed, when they were at their tepee, that
the three, whom Katherine named, after
the Three Bears, "the Big Indian, the Mid
dle-sized Indian and the Little Wee In
dian," did not troop silently up to the
cabin of the white settlers and sit placidly
upon the grass until invited in to meal,
which they ate silently and then silently
departed, apparently without thanks, GER
tainly without expressing them.
"But they feel thankful, 1 am quite sure,"
sand Mr.. Brown to his wife and daughter.
"Chief Longfeather tells the other Semi
noles about me, I find, when I 60 down
the river. He says my heart is good and
they must listen to my words as they
would to the words of their own fathers
No, Chief Longfeather is in his way a
very good friend, and we must try not to
mind the trouble they put us to or the
amount of food they eat"
Chief Longfeather was better friend
than even Mr.. Brown knew. Often at
night, when the missionary was away in
the 'Glades, the chief would steal silently
to the cabin, seat himself against tree
and, with his rifle on his knee, sit wide
eyed and watchful, keeping guard over the
household that slept within.
Once he had killed prowling black
bear by the pen where the Browns kept
their pig. Mother and daughter, aroused
by the shot, had rushed to the door, where
the chief met them calmly and showed the
bear.
"Me trail him." he announced. Glide
fetch heap big price in Miami" They
never knew that he had sat all night
watching the cabin.
The Browns did not see any more of the
chief and his family after the morning on
which they had announced their desire for
a Christmas tree; they had gone down the
river in their canoe, with load of furs
and bird skins to sell; but mother and
daughter were quite sure the Indians

mas morning, ready for their tree.
A few days later Katherine
announced joyfully that she heard
her fathers motor boat on the
river. Now they should have
something for Christmas!
Mother and daughter hastened

Then there'll be nice things in

"And Shoes" added Katherine.

as he embraced his wife and daughter.
90 father, where is the box?" asked
Katherine dolefully. "Surely-surely Aunt
Elizabeth's box came?"
"It surely did not" her father assured
her pacidly, "for the steamer that should
have brought it didn't come Storm warn
ings came, and naturally she wouldn't put
out from port. The storm isn't over yet.
1t will be after Christmas before we can
expect the boat. 1 couldn't wait, so
just had to bring you myself"
He smiled happily, as if he were quite
certain they had rather have him than any
Christmas dainty known.
"And we are delighted to have you safe
at home, DEAR" his wife hastened to say
"only we are just clean out of everything
in the way of provisions-Aour, coffee,
sugar and bacon; and Katherine avas
4-saunting on some new shoes to wear
Christmas"
"Tut, tut" exclaimed the minister as
his placid forehead wrinkled bit. "Not
any coffee, my dear? l couldn't buy
thing in the way of groceries at the store
downriver; they were expecting every
thing by the steamer. A preacher has no
right to become addicted to habits, but I
confess to you that it will be poor Christ
mas for me without breakfast cup" Mr..
Brown smiled ruefully. 81 thought we had
little"
ooh, we did!" cried Katherine indig-
nantly. "We did-but mother gave it all
to Chief Longfeather. !"
None of the household drank coffee ex-
cept the minister. Chief Longfeather,
watching him drink it, had tried cup
and thereafter had always demanded it

very much scraping out the sugar in the
bottom of the cup.

theirs Christmas tree" said Katherine.
Her mother wisely suggested that they
wait until after father had eaten and
rested. "But we have eight little pigs,

Katherine's mind.
AT the end of the tale her father merely
laughed and said cheerfully that there was
no need to worry; she and her mother
could fix up tree all right, without the
aid of box or fancy groceries.
"Pd like to know howl" cried Katherine.
"And you know, father, Chief Longfeather
and his squaw and his papoose will be
here to find their tree all ready, Christmas"
"Well, daughter, we'll just have to use
our wits and what material we have" said
CHEEKY Mrs. Brown. CPL tell you: father
will get us tree--a tall pine sapling will
do, because the chief wants big tree, he
says. Then we will string pop corn for
decoration-we have a whole bagful of
pop corn, you know. And there are few
tinsel ornaments left over from our last
tree still in my trunk, l think. I'll give

she admires it immensely"

Katherine. swell, never mind. I'll give
MY doll--I'm much too old to care about
dolls. I'll dress her in her best frock with
my pink hair ribbon for a sash. Won't
that please Little Spotted Doe!''
Surely; and I will donate to Chief
Longfeather my silk shirt" said her father
gravely.
20 father, your one silk shirt And it is
so soft ana comfortable!' mourned Kath-
crime; and her mother declared that her
husband could surely find something else
besides his best shirt, which was a present
from Aunt Elizabeth.
"No; that shirt is too fine for me, way
down here in the 'Glades. Chief Long
feather has felt it, when I've worn it here
at home, and he declared that it was heap
plenty pretty Now, isn't your tree filled,
daughter?"
Except some little cakes and syrup
candy. Mother has little -four; we'll
make some ginger cakes-litle ones; and
I'll pull some candy white and hard and
cut it up in little pieces. I'll make some
tiny bags out of piece of red cheesecloth
in my trunk and hang them, filled with
candy, on the tree. That will be fine!"
Thus it happened that early on Christ
mas morning, when Chief Longfeather,
Running Water and Little Spotted Doe
trailed silently up to the cabin of their
white friends, the tree, tall pine sapling
set firmly in big washtub filled with
sand, stood in the middle of the living
room and presented a very gay appearance
with its ropes of pop corn, its little red
bags of candy and, best of all, big gilt

their papoose Little Spotted Doe; then,
becoming exceedingly embarrassed at the
sound of her own voice, she suddenly hid
her face in her mothers skirts, so that only
one round black eye peeped out of its folds,
eager to know what Missy would say to
the demands of her family.
Indeed Missy, whose name was Kath-
crime Brown, and who was the daughter of
the Rev. Samuel Brown, missionary to the
Seminoles, found herself almost as much
embarrassed as Little Spotted Doe herself.
For if Chief Longfeather, his squaw and
his papoose all announced their wish for
Christmas tree, it meant that they must
have one-and that the Browns would fur
nish it.
Katherine had just told the Indians the
old, old story of Christmas-that, because
their hearts were glad for the gift of the
Christ child, people celebrated his birth
day by giving gifts to one another,
which they hung on trees-little trees in
tubs, or big trees, if there were many
gifts to hang on the branches. Katherine
had become enthusiastic as she told of the
trees they used to have, "back home"
Alas! That enthusiasm had stirred her
hearers to demand tree for themselves.
"Me want um one big Christmas tree"
declared Chief Longfeather.
The chief and his family then rose from
the ground before the Brown cabin, where
they had been squatting comfortably, and
silently departed to their own tepee, few
miles away in the 'Glades.
"Well, Katherine, that means we'll have
to see about Christmas tree for the chief
and his family" said her mother, with
little trouble wrinkle showing between
her eyes. "But-what on earth are we to
put on their tree?"
"And Christmas so near" mourned
Katherine. "Mother, if anything should
happen to Aunt Elizabeth's box, we won't
have single, solitary gift to put on it!
Why did I ever tell them about Christmas
trees!"
ooh, well, 1 shouldn't worry" said her
mother soothingly. "We'll manage. Father'll
be sure to fetch home some groceries when
he returns. We can bake a cake-no,
some little cakes-a bagful will be better;

According to information re-

Lutz and aroused the latter from

and as the former prohibition men

PARIS, May 16.-As a re-

European steamship lines Bit

arriving in France and England
half empty.
Faced with the worst season
since the war, Paris hotel and
restaurant keepers are asking
what has become of the "phe-

which was predicted early in

The steamship agents say the
lack of business is directly due
to the food of stories appear

that every berth was booked to
Europe for months ahead and
that there were bankers stand

The French line agent here

"The real truth of it was
that there was not any rush

had the effect of soaring off
