CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1904.
Hair RaUUa.
Just when the mutllntlon of th« dead
by tearing the skin from the head be
tcnn will never be known, for the origin
is lost In the midst of Hjres, the record
extending buck beyond even the myth
ical period of man's existence. In the
l>ook of Maccabees it is recorded that
at the termination of one of the battles
of which that bloody history Is so full
the victorious soldiers tore the skin
from the heads of their vanquished
foes. This would be evidence that the
custom of scalp taking was one of the
indulgences even of those people of
whom we have record in the Hible.
Re it as It may, it is an established
fact that the custom is a universal one,
so far as savage man is concerned.
Whether ethnologists can build a the
ory of a common origin of man from
this or not, or whether this can lie
taken as an evidence that the Indians
are the descendants of the lost Israelite
tribes because of their habit of securing
mementos of hair from their fallen en
emies, is something time alone will de
velop. He that as it may, it is a fact
that all Indian tribes, to a certain ex
tent, scalp their enemies who have full
en in battle.—London Globe.
Cnrloun Fm'l I■> Natural llltttory.
An incident which will be interest
ing to naturalists is told in a recent
number of the Scotsman. One of the
foresters in the employ of the Marquis
of Lothian was returning from his
■work when he noticed a wild duck Hy
ing from a larch tree. On close exami
nation he observed a common brown
owl looking down from what appeared
to be a nest In the cleft of the tree
about thirty feet from the ground and
apparently near the place from which
the duck had flown. Curiosity prompt
ed him to climb to the place, which he
did with great difficulty. The owl 011
his approach Hew off, and to his sur
prise he found In the nest two eggs
an owl's and a wild duck's. It is not
uncommon for both owls and ducks to
build their nests high up on trees, but
it Is unheard of for one nest to be ap
propriated by both birds.
A Clever Milliliter.
"To the town of Norridgewock, In
Maine," said a clergyman, " a strange
minister once came to preach. He
preached duly, and after the sermon
was over he mingled with the congre
gation, expecting that some one would
Invite him to dinner. One by one, how
ever, the congregation departed, offer
ing the hungry minister 110 hospitality,
and he began to feel anxious. Where
was he to eat? As the last deacon was
leaving the church the minister rushed
up to him und shook him warmly by
the hand. •
" 'I want you to come home and dine
with me,' the minister said.
"'Why, where do you live?' said the
deacon.
" 'About thirty miles from here.'
"The deacon reddened. 'Oh, you come
and dine with me iustead,' he said."
A Gypsy Prophecy.
An English magazine relates a curi
ous Instance of gypsy prophecy. The
third Earl of Malmesbury, as Lord
Fitzharrls, was riding to a yeomanry
review near Chrlstchurch, when his or
derly, some distance in front, ordered
a Kypsy woman to open a gate. The
gypsy woman quietly waited till Lord
Fitzharrls and Ills staff rode up, when
she addressed them, saying, "Oh, you
think you are a lot of fine fellows now,
but I can tell you that one day your
bones will whiten in that field." Lord
Fitzharrls laughed and asked her
whether she thought they were going
to have a battle, adding it was not very
likely in that case they would choose
such a spot. More than forty years
later the field was turned into a ceme
tery.
A Country of Llngulttii.
Almost every native of Iceland, even
the peasants and fishermen, can speak
at least one foreign language besides
his local Danish dialect. Some years
ago it became a fad to study languages,
and now a person speaking only one
tongue is looked down upon as ex
tremely ignorant. English leads; then
come German and French. Papers in
these three languages are read exten
sively in Iceland and may be found in
all the village reading rooms.
Tlic Head nnd Feet.
The connection between the head and
feet is well known. A hot head is or
dinarily relieved by a hot footbath.
So cold feet tend to congest the brain
and other internal organs. Sometimes
cold feet are caused by tight lacing or
tight fitting shoes. Hut it Is as much
a suicidal act to hasten death by com
pressing the lungs or the feet as by
compressing the neck with a rope.
A SeriouN Decinlon.
Beatrix (aged six, after remaining in
deep thought for quite two minutes, ad
dressing her mother, who has been
choosing frocks for her) —Mummy,
dear, before you buy the frocks, I've
thought it all over, and I think I'd rath
er be a boy.—London Tit-Bits.

"Mr. Kiehley had nothing but praise

"Yes," replied the lobbyist gloomily,
