Stock for Indian Arros0

If particular in the materials for
his bow the brave was even more 80
where arrow stock was concerned.
Any available hardwood. IL straight
and, free from knots, served. When
seasoned. the shaft was meticulously
scraped and smoothed and feathered
with various pinions. The Arapahoes
and Cheyenne usually used those of the

split and glued with glue made from
a large muscle at the back Of the neck
Of the buffalo, writes Frank 81. Huston

The glue was less susceptible to cli-
matte variations than any other used
by the tribes. The final touch was
given by placing an individual mark
upon the shaft to identify the person
who made the kill, whether Of human
or brute game.
Heads were made from aint, obsi-
dian. odd bits of iron and even old
barrel hoops. until, toward the last
of the bow and arrew days, traders

shop in Vienna and brought to this
country by A. Well. an Engiishman.

Mr.. Meeker's declaration that he had

an explanation for Its presence so fssr
away from the Old West In which he
spent his early days.
There are my oxen," said the piO-
neer as he examined the base Of the
miniature statue with a magnifying
glass. Look how that horn turns
down; how well I remember that"
He found that even the improvised
cloth feed bin. used in going over the
pioneer trails, was depicted true to
life. The statue itself Is Mr. Meelxer

Henry Rowe Sehoolcraft. American
traveller and ethnologist. believed that
ID the discovery Of Lake Itasca, Mimi,
he had reached the extreme head Of
the Mississippi river. He published
his discovery to the world. and it was
generally accepted on his authority.
Lake Itasca was. and 10. laid down In
maps as the source Of the Father Of
Waters.
In 1881 Capt. Willard Glazier organ
ixBd an expedition to proceed to the
headwaters of the Mississippi. The re-
suit was the discovery Of body Of
water lying Immediately south OF
Lake Itasca and emptying into the
latter through q perennial stream. the
mouth Of which was entirely con-
cealed by dense growth OF lake
vegetation and fallen trees.
This body Of water Is now known
as Lake GlaEier and the discoverer
claimed for 1t that 1t was the primal
reservoir, or ultimate source, of the
Mississippi river.-D Detroit News.

Detecting the Bogus

French chemists have perfected new
methods Of Identifying pictures. ac-
cording to the American Chemical
society. They use groups Of red, blue,
green or white light to light the pic
ture. and they examine the suspected
canvas with the spectrometer. This
puts in relief the retouchings,
scrapings and changed signatures
which constitute a false picture. BY
employing the ultraviolet ray they
make the zinc white and certain var
nishes stand out by fiuorescence. BY
scraping- of small amounts of paint
they have made spectrographic
analyses and have been able to de-

CURB LIST MAKES
 IRREGULAR SHOW
Oil Group Is Particularly Mixed, Some Losing,
 Some Gaining

NEW YORK, July 25. = Heavy profit taking sales gave today's curb market an irregular appearance.
 The oil group was particularly mixed, losses of one to six points in Standard Oils of Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio, South Pennsylvania, Illinois, Indiana and Buckeye Pipes were eounteracted by gains of one to five points in Prairie Pipe, Solar Refining and Magnolia Pe- troleum. Woodley Petroleum touched new high on the current movement at Il on reports that the company had obtained total daily flush production of over 15,000 barrels on the six wells drilled since May 5.
 Speculative interest in the industrial group was divided between Glen Alden Coal and Hazeltine Radio, which es- tablished new high records for the year at 10512 and respectively. Most of the other radio stocks fell back on profit taking. Lehigh Valley Coal eer- tificates, the most active feature, crossed 39 for a small fractional gain.
 In the bond group, heaviness again cropped out in Atlantic, Gulf and West Indies dropped two points to B.
