These fortunate people aa a tribe are per haj)g the richest people on earth. To begin with, they have aomethinir like $3,000,000 ou deposit wilii liie United States government. Thie large sum is drawing a good rate of inter est, sufficient to give each member of ie tribe $104 per annum. They also hare about 1,6UO,000 acres of land. which, in view of the immense fields of gas and oil now being developed, is worth at a conservative estimate S5 an acre. This augments their money holdings $8,000,000 and gives a grand total of $10,000,000. If this sum should beN divided eauallv among the 1.913 living Osages, each would have Besides the regular annuity derived from interest on funds on deposit, each Osage gets a considerable sum of money received from the annual rent als of the tribal pastures. To this is now being added that of oil and gas royalties. The full value of this item I difficult to arrive at, from the fact that frequent new developments aug ment the montnly revenue from this ource. At this time the tribe is draw ing something like $12,000 monthly from oil and gas royalties, or about $75 per capita per annum, amounting in all to nearly $250 a year which each Osage receives as his pro rata share of the income from their tribal funds. Aside from this, the Osage Journal reports that there are many members of the tribe who have private fortunes of considerable volume. These private holdings ranged from the common farm home, equipped with the ordinary con Tenlences and comforts of life, to pa latial mansions and live stock and oth er personal property holdings valued at many thousands of dollars. More than dozen Osage Indians are rated as owning property valued at from $10, 000 to $20,000 or more, and several of them have commodious country homes, containing from ten to twenty rooms. These persons are not all mixed blood9, but a number of them are full-blooded Osages, who have by their own indus try and thrift added to their original patrimony. Kansas City Journal.

Dear little gingham aprons of the day Of sandy paths and primrose-scented ways; There is a glory in each string and check Heart gathers from the flatsam and the wreck. They used to scurry o'er the mossy stile, They used to sway upon the grape vine swing, Ah, me! there was no sophistry or guile In e'en a puckered ruffle or a string. 1 1 close my eyes and see the merry train Anon come trooping down the sunny shore; The bare feet paddle in the dew again And flowers drift through the rents the briers tore.

Haltia lVi aia-I a ! iZZ T, 7 "",en, Danish Au thor of Wonderful Tale, of Fairyland. nas recently observed the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Hans Christian Andersen, au thor of those wonderful tales of fairy land which are so dear to the hearts of children, and in every schoolhouse la Denmark, where he was born, as well as in every part of the civilizl world where little boys and girls, dwell, the occasion will be remember ed with song and music and gay, happy thoughts. Poor, indeed, In memory and lack ing in the fullness of childhood's ideals are the men and women of to day who have grown up without some knowledge of Andersen's wonderful fairy fancies. Ills rhetoric often faulty, his syntax perceptibly bad in many ways, Andersen never falls to go straight to the heart of the imag ination of a child. His Judgment and beautiful simplicity not only in choice ot subjects but In language reflect un erringly the thoughts of babyhood. Everything Andersen touches, whether it be an animate or Inanimate object, becomes In the mind of the child at once alive. The broom and the doll are as much living creatures as tho cat The rag carpet is transformed Into a thing of life, and not until long after the glamour of the baby dream has passed away do these inanimate tilings take their proper and prosaic places. Andersen was born in the ancient city of Odense, Denmark, April 2, 1805. Nowhere in his earlier life had he any material surroundings thnt gave prom ise of the wonder-worker he was after ward to become. His parents were poor and shiftless people and the boy had little regular instruction and few child friends. Long before his fifteenth birthday he fell passionately In love with the stage, and the happiest and most hopeful hours of his early life were in his fourteenth year, when he started off for Copenhagen armed with a letter of introduction to a fair danseuse at the Itoyal Theater, given him by her father an old shoe cobbler of her native village. When he intro duced himself to the young woman and told her he had come to make him self a famous actor, she took h:m for a lunatic and showed him the door. Then followed four years of hard ship, during which time the boy trav eled through many parts of Europe, working his way along from village to village and gradually gathering in his mind material for the beautiful de scriptive volumes he was afterward to write about Spnin, Italy aud Germany volumes that, owing to the wonder ful popularity of his later child stories, are not as well known as they deserve to be. Of all Andersen's works his "I Svor rlg" "In Sweden" is his most beau tiful story of travel. In this volume are found some of the most stirring, life-like descriptions of the ha lilts of a people and the character of a country that have appeared In modern times. In 1835 came his wonder stories, con taining the famous "Tinderbox" and "Big Claus" and "Little Calus." In 1847 he was the guest of Charles Dick ens at Gadshlll, and six years later he dedicated his "Poet s Day Dreams" to Dickens. "Improvlsatore" was the re sult of a tour through Italy. It Is full of exquisite descriptions of Italian life and scenery. Andersen was the most ungainly fig ure of a mhn Imaginable. Ho often said, lilmseu, lhat he wns the ugliest human being in Europe. What Is probably the best known of ail his fairy stories, "The I'gly Duckling," Is really the disguised story of his own life.- IuiR before bis d'-ath, which oc curred In 1875, bis admirers hnd erect ed n statue In his honor, nnd the state gave him n magnificent funeral. Hut the monument to Andersen that will endure as long as civilization lasts Is the love and affection of Juveniles, bathed in the little storms of tenrs and laughter through which all modem babyhood passes as It rends his "Won der Tales" and his "Picture Book Without Pictures." We claim that when the children have their noses flattened against the pane watching for father to' come home, it Is a good sign; he's good to them. , , . HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN. Save the Babies. JNFANT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize that of all the children horn in civilized countries, twentytwo per cent., or nearly one-quarter, die hefore they reach one year; thirtyseven per cent., or more than one-third, before they are five, and one -half hefore they are fifteen! We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma jority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of thest ' infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotio preparations. Drops tincturee and Boothing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium, or morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher. Castoria 1 causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the pores of the skin and allays fever.
