and the friend of the unhappy." Their

as a flcshlcsa monster, such as horri- 1

their burying ground t'ometrlon. "the'

had no honor of the grave, called it
Hcthaliu, "the house of the living."

INDIANS NO GOOD AS SOLDIERS.

Win n the last organization of Indian
Foidleis was mustered out of service
the oilier day ll ml was reached of
what was once considered a promising
scheme to make the Indians of leal
le to the Pulled Slates government.
The Idea of enlisting Indians originat
ed with an otlicer who fell lu the bat
tle of Wounded Knee, lu 1V.U. He had
ormu.l.ed several companies of Indians
and these under his guidance had made
excellent cavalrymen. Alter his death
the Indians seemed discouraged and
deteriorated In the service. The idea
of their enlistment, however, seemed
popular, and other companies were
formed. At lirst the Indians were
greatly phased, but gradually deca
dence appeared. The Indian began to
show a decided disinclination to abide
bv military discipline. The blare of the
(
trumpets and the rattling charge of
cavalry were his delight aud pleasure,
but when It came to getting up at a i-er-laiu
hour every morning, going to bed
at the sound of a bugle, and. above all,
keeping neat and ch an, army life be
gait lo lose Its Joys.
'I he Indian is at no time a disciplin
arian. Authority to l.e acceptable must
rest very lightly, indeed, upon him. So
he refused to learn anything about
I'plon's Tactics, aud simply disregard
id en rjtl, ing that he could. Tbe sum
maty pi.nishim ut that follows these
offenses the guardhouse- tilled his
soul with wrath, and he began to get
sullen and bitter and ugly.
It Is a characteristic of the Indian
that lie prefers to cat whenever possi
hie, and these possibilities cannot be
too fteiiclit to suit him. Pltele Sntn

The attempted cultivation of the grape

The arguments presctiited by ninjiy
writers seem to prove that the moder
ate taking of fluids with the food nt
meals Is not without benefit. Hut the

If this is liitcrfensl with In any way
by the use of ll,ulds, we must prompt
ly prohibit their indulgence.
Fluids may be taken nil libitum
diiriic; meals by those whose digestive
puw'.'i's will allow it, but such ihtsoiis
should keep In mind that the strongest
stomach may be abused too far, while
those whose stomachs are already liu
ecptal to a severe strain should be es
pecially careful as to the quantity of
Huh! imbibed with the food.
The saliva I the liest lubricator for
the foisl w hile It Is in the tnoiitll, both
Ixi aiiM' of Its starch-digesting powers
and because Its alkalinity serves to
stimulate a copious flow of the acid
secret h ti of the stomach.
Anv habit, therefore, which permits
the entrance of food Into the stomach
before it Is thoroughly IncoriMifnted
with llv,'i must lip pronounced per
nicious in the extreme.
If we cannot afford the time neees-
sary for masticating our food proierly
and incorporating It thoroughly with
saliva, It would be tiettor to take noth
ing but broths and similar foods. The
use f water and other liquids as
lubricators Is not to lie tolerated.
