- r How t Mtini the Indian.
The Indian is a naturally secretive be
ing, biding bis inner character jealously
- from the eye of any alien race. He is
called cunning, crafty, morose, revenge
ful and cruel. So ha has been toward
those who have made no bids for his
confidence and friendship other than
those offered by constant efforts to crowd
him from his country, despoil and even
:, exterminate him. He is really by na
ture not always, but often the very
reverse of these things. " " -
Place him now under other conditions.
Put him in one of the new troops; teach
bim a pride in being a soldier of the gov
ernment, and that the government re
lies ou him for its safety and protection;
make him feel that the white soldiers
- around him are his comrades, and he pa
good as they; explain to him the reason
- of things; give him healthy ' and con
genial employment; treat him aV an In
dependent rational being and a man;
cease trying to promote his confidence
in you 'and his progress by talking to
him about his soul and you will Boon
have a result astonishingly different "to
the accepted idea of his race. . .
' He who 'commands these people beet
must be scrupulously just, and keep ev
ery promise as far as he can.' He must
feel a genuine interest and friendship
"for them, for they are quick to detect
hams. He must at first be patient and
lenient, punishing usually only after re
peated cautions and explanations,' and
- after he is sure the nature of the offense
.. is- understood. He must have tact and
perception of character, for Indian char:
.. acter is just as varied as the white, and
treatment that would do for one man
would break up the troop if applied to
others. Lieutenant 8. C. Robertson in
. Harper's Weekly.
Poetrj and Fireplace.
What poetry and sentiment linger
around the old fashioned fireplace'! Here
- the families gathered, down to the mid
' die of the century in many cases. Be-
fore one of them in Kentucky the' boy
Abraham Lincoln learned tP read, the
- hut in which he lived being too poorly
furnished even to allow him the saucer
of lard with the burning lampwick float
ing therein. Here the sturdy manhood
and the buxom womanhood lived, loved
and died, learned, dreamed and went
therefrom to make name and fame or to
plod on through life in a humble ca
pacity.
But those days are gone, and the ola
fashioned fireplace is a thing of the past,
except in remote regions where the spirit
, of progress has not yet penetrated. Of
course a great deal of poetry departed
with the substitution of. stoves for fire
. places, but this is largely a practical and
a utilitarian age, wherein stoves and
prosy comfort are considered as vastly
prel era Die to fireplaces and the impossi
bility of keeping warm without being
xoastea. The majority of people today.
if there were no other objections to fire
places, would doubtless esteem the poet
ical one as being sufficient. Philadel

Jefferson's Lonlilut Home.
The winter home of Joseph Jefferson
m on Orange island, New Iberia. La.
The house is one of the old manors, re-
Toodeled and refurnished' by the actor.
Its conservatories abound in tropical
fruita and flowers. Artificial ponds
teem with trout and black bass. Lake
Simonette, near by, affords the finest
fishing, while one has to step ' but a few
yards from Jefferson's fireside to find
wild fowl in abundance. . Luxuriant
groves, containing thousands of trees of
the mandarin and Brazilian varieties,
surround the house. Fully one hundred
pecan and the same number of orange
trees yield succulent corps yearly. In
the pastures are'the finest specimens 'of
Holsteins, while in the stables are a
number of the fleetest roadsters in the
. south. The apartment of which Mr.
Jefferson is proudest is the Japanese
room. It is of marvelous beauty, and
viators come from miles about to gaze
on tne gorgeous furnishings Charles-
ion mews and Uourier.
Tbe Shape or the Karth.
Here are some answers given by young
scholars in an examination:
Question What is the shape of the
earth? Give reasons for your answer.
Answers The shape of the earth is
round, because you can see it, and sec
ondly because the map tells you.
The shape of the earth is like an or
ange, and it has a pole through the mid
dle. The shape of the earth is like an or
ange, and if you put a pole through the
middle of the earth you will see it is like
an orange.
The shape of the earth is like an or
ange, and 1 prove that it is so shaped,
because when a year passes it comes
back again. London Tablet. "
Making Alloys Is au Art.
Great art is requisite in making alloys.
It is true that they are readily formed
by melting metals together in a crucible
-or in properly constructed furnaces, but
it is necessary to insure perfect fusion
and to prevent loss. - Zinc is a volatile,
inflammable metal and easily catches
fire. Indeed, it is not at all uncommon
to find that two alloys of exactly the
same component parts differ very ma-,
terially in properties, in consequence of
'a difference in the mode of preparation
or in the care bestowed upon it. Cham
bers Journal.
All Modern Warships Are Kama. .
- All turreted ships are called monitors
after Ericsson's celebrated ship. Mon
itor. All modern warships are meant
to ram, and to that end are built with a
'projecting prow under water extending
to a considerable distance from the reg
ular bow line. There are no vessels
known as rams nowadays. - Ericsson's
Monitor was not built with a projecting
prow or beak. As a matter of fact, all
modern ships of war are rams in every
thing but name. Brooklyn Eagle. . ,

Sport" is "horrible. . I say it advised

efficiently as most "sporting folk," and
few women, and not many men, nave

hunting in which I have . been engaged
both at home and during travels ana ex

therefore, as a novice that 1 tafce up my

The Innumerable Chrysanthemums.
The Japanese cite 260 color varieties of
the chrysanthemum, of which 63 are
yellow, 87 white, 83 purple, 80 red, 81

that in this flower the same tint is never

" A very fine diamond is the Mattam,
belonging to the rajah of Mattam, Bor

867 carats. It bears a striking resem
blance to a pear in shape, even to the in
dentation in the larger end. It was
found near Landak, Borneo, in 1760, and
has been the cause of several sanguinary
wars. St. Lonis Re.rrnbiic. '

The English peo
ple look more closely
'to the genuineness
of these staples than
we do. In fact, they
have a law under
'Which they make
seizures and de-
spr siroy aauiieratea
- products that are
not what they are represented to be. Under
this statute thousands of pounds of tea have
been burned because of their wholesale adul
teration. Tea, by the way. Is one of the most notori
ously adulterated articles of commerce. Not
alone are the bright, shiny green teas artifi
cially colored, bnt thousands of pounds of
substi .utei for tea leaves are used to swell
tbe bulk of cheap tea?; ash, sloe, and willow
loaves being those most commonly used.
Agala, sweepings from tea warehouses , are
colored and sold as tea. ' Even exhausted tea
leaves gathered from the tea-houses are kept,
dticd, and made over and find their way into
tbe cheap teas.
7he English government attempts to stamp -
' this out by couuKeuti-.n; but no tea is too
poor for u and the result if, that probably
r the poorest teas used by any nation are those -
consumed in America.
