A certain commissioner out Went
was given to treating the Indians with
a ecorn they did not deserve. One
day, as be sat with a great chief in
his tepee, smoking the pipe of peace,
the chief entertained him with many
quaint legends.
One of these dealt with a plague of
locusts, and the grim orator described
in flowery language how they had
swarmed over the land, entlng every
herb and green lear, and blotting out
the light of dayfc for every number.
Then, he concluded by remarking that
it was not until the medicine man
made an offering of a silver locust tn
the Great Spirit that the creatures
disappeared, and this they did, swift
ly and suddenly.
Loudly tho commissioner laughed
the superstittfous Indian to scorn.
"Do you mean to say you're such
fools as to believe that rubbish?' he
asked.
"Not much, replied tho chief grave
ly, "or we would have offered the
Great Spirit a silver paleface long
ago!"

6un Makes the Hair Curl.
The holidays had been dry nd
bright, and from daylight till duric
the links had been covered with bare
headed youths and maids.
"All this sunshine," said a girl, "has
charged the nature of my hair. It

sun haa made it dry ard crisp aud

curly hair," said an engineer. "I went
bareheaded there all winter tn the
brilliant sunshine. And as 1 watched
ny lank, greasy locks dty and kink
up I began to understand wh the
hattess natives working arouua me
had such peculiar dry, tightly curled
hair, Tha sun waa the cauaa ol
eourta."
