GREWSOME INDIAN CHARM.
It a Lonn I.?mI the Cheyenne Ilraven i
to I.cuve the Warimth.
Of nil the grow-some things la the
National museum the necklace presented
several years . go by Captain John
G. llurke of the United States army
stands unequnled as a monument to
Indian cruelty and superstition. This
neeklaee consists lust of all of n long
buckskin cord made by rolling up a
large strip of skin and sewing It along
the border so that throughout its entire
length it will measure something
over an inch in circumference, or about
a third of an inch in diameter. This
cylinder of buckskin Is covered with
beiulwork so that no part of the skin Is
exposed. The Jteads are sewed on in
fiti,.-.. - . ---
........ iunli:i 111 [lillicrlin, M1U colors or
which arc white and blue. A thin buck- J
skin string is attached to either end of
this thick, bend lucrusted cord, by
means of which the cylinder is tied
about the neck of the wearer.
Hanging from I lie underside of this .
necklace and running throughout Its
entire length are twelve human lingers
and several small flint arrowheads of
peculiar shape and workmanship attached
by buckskin strings. In the
middle of the necklace depend throe
small medicine bags made of the
tanned hide or skin of human beings.
Theso bags contain charm stones and
other paraphernalia of the medicine
man.
The human lingers, forming the most 1
conspicuous feature of the necklace, .
are complete, having been cut off be- .
tween the middle Joint and the knuckle.
They have been dried in such (.
manner as to preservo llielr natural
color, linger nails, etc., and look as (
fresh as though they had been removed
only a few hours.
During General Crook's campaign
against the Sioux and Cheyennes in
187G the Fourth cavalry and a detach- !
ment of Indian scouts under Oolonel R.
0. Mackenzie surprised and stormed
the chief town and principal stronghold
of tlio Cheyennes. During or,
rather, after this engagement one of ,
the Indian scouts, Bnptiste Pouvler,
better known ns Lilg Bat, entered the
lodge of the chief medicine man of the j
deserted village, and among other .
things thnt the medicine man had over- .
looked in his hurried flight from the (
town the scout found this curious necklace.
Big Bat gave the necklace to |
Colonel Burke, who later turned it over f
to a student of Indian religions and su- j
pcrstitlons, and he In turn presented It {
to the National museum. \
Subsequently something of the his- j
tory of this necklace was learned. The j
fingers were those of famous enemies f
noted for their superior courage and (
bravery whom the Cheyennes had j
killed in battle during their various (
wars, while the human skin of which {
the medicine bags were made was also ,
taken from the bodies of enemies slain ,
in battle. The necklaco is very old and
was looked upon by the Cheyennes as (
a thing endowed with miraculous pow- ,
crs. Prior to its capture by Big Bat It (
had belonged to a famous medicine ,
man of that tribe, who had never nl- <
lowed any white man to lay eyes on It, j
and its loss put a very sudden and j
abrupt end to the Cheyenne war. The ,
Cheyennes tried hard to get it back, ,
offering a large sum of money and a (
great many horses for Us return, but f
this was refused, and since then the ,
Cheyennes have remained at peaco (
with the whites.?Washington Post. t

AN ILLUSTRATED VILLAGE. '
il((le Svrlaa Town One of (he Quaint- j
eat In Europe.
When next you go to tho Lake of !
'Jeneva, by nil means pay n visit to
be little known village of St. Lcgier,
lenr by, on tho road between Vevey
ind Blonny, one of ilio quaintest vil
ages In Europe and one of the proudwt
on account of its extraordinary 1
idornments. St. Legier and the adjolnng
village of Ln Chlosnz ai;o nothing ^
nore or loss than illustrated villages, j
rhey are as profusely illustrated as
he modern magazine, for nearly all
lie houses bear on their outside walls ,
lome striking picture or comical earl;ature
from the brush of a great man
n the village, M. Alfred Beguin, a
in Inter of local renown and not uu- j
mown In Tarlq, says Pearson's Magazine.
(
A house ln St. I,egler has no use for
i signboard to tell the world that it is
m inn, a cycle shop, "a forge or a dairy.
II. Beguin's picture docs that. On a
itahle wall he draws a picture of a
iplrited runaway horse knocking down 1
nen as ho leaps for freedom; on the
ivhlto wall of the little village forgo (
ire p!ctures*of men making horseshoes
for dear life and shoeing a frisky
itecd; on the wall of the dairy a dairy .
nnld balances a pall of milk on lier
lead, while scenes of local life, as pietiros
of the annual summer exodus to
lie mountain pastures with the cows
md goats, and caricatures of the local
tigwigs make a bright picture gaiery
of the village. M. Beguin lives in
me of the most imposing houses in St.
Legier, whence he obtains a full view 1
)f the crooked little village street and
)f the Dent du Jnmnn towering up in
:lio distance. For many years past ho ,
ias amused himself by painting tho
muses, and in the llrst place be acpilred
most of his skill and boldness

HORSEHAIR SNAKES.
Peculiar Habit* of Thene Threadlike
I.tttle Serpen!*.
Tho "horsehair .snakes" arc small, '
lesh colored mites which live principally
in stagnant water. After going ' ,
hrougli various transformations they ,
:ome to tho surface of tho water In tho
iliapo of very slender, purplish looking
:hrends. When they reach this last 1
stage, thej' leave tho water and work (
ilieir way up the stalks and leaves of
iquattc plants. When opportunity nf'ords,
they attach themselves to the
?eet, legs, wings and other parts of
arger Insects, often, as one authority ^
states, creeping under the wing case
)f beetles. In the case of the cricket,
tatydid, grasshopper and other Insects
)f that Ilk, whose legs are hollow," tho j
:iny horsehair takes the advantage and ^
creeps up the hollows Into the very .
rltals. s
This accounts for the fat and clumsy ,
condition of some individuals of the j
ibove named species, single specimens <
>f tho cricket having been caught with f
jver two dozen of these threadlike i
"snakes" attached to and inside of 1
:heir bodies. After heavy rains, which 1
'requeutly drown crickets and katydids 1
which are weighted down by those {
parasites, the "horsehair snake" ^
'merges from tho carcass of the insect
i full fledged miniature serpent. In this ^
mature state he is the delight of tho ^
:urlosity seeker and a mine of study to ^
hose who delight to delve in nature's j
jypaths. Those which have been for- %
uuate enough not to have been carried j
,'ory far from water by the insects j
which they encumbered during lifo
make their way back to the ponds to
ay their eggs. They then wrap them- 1
lelves around the eggs, which soon ^
latch into the little flesh colored mites c
mentioned in the opening. About this
;lme the parent "snake" dies to make
oom for its progeny.

"Do you mean to swear," said the
'oreinan of the jury to the witness,
'that at tho time of tho quarrel that
lonstitutes the cause of this action you

"Not exactly," said the witness, with f
onsidernblo hesitation. "[ menu to r

FOR NERVOUS FOLKS.
S> Mtcinntlc Kent, MiiNNilue ami Proto
rr Diet Will Work Wondor*.
Sclmlo, writing on mental diseases,
asks, "Is our civilization to blame for
this neurotic condition?" and the answer
is in the a Mr mat ire. How can
nutrition prosper in the body where
malnutrition holds full sway? And
how can people be bnppy and healthy
when worry dominates their lives?
For in this human being the lower oMcers
of the nervous hierarchy draw
their very breath at the blddiug of the
higher powers, and tho relation is verily
reciprocal, for to keep the brain
healthy the unconscious nervous functions
must be kept in good shape, proper
activities alternating with wisely
arrnnged periods of repose.
Just as soon aa one notices the approach
of nervous irritability systematic*
nerve rest will shorten an attack,
and by rest 1 mean to have the patient
go to bed and have massage. Tho
amount of exercise undergone in a
good Fch-ntiflc massage is equal to a
walk of two or three miles a day, and
it go without saying that such passive
exorcise should increase the appetite,
and tho food Ingested and enjoyed
will 1> > digested and assimilated. I uso
the word "enjoy" deliberately, because
there are some nervous invalids who
ennuot enjoy their food unless in soli
llilr, I? O.l.mu..
....... ... .iuuiiiuu id mo massage I
would recommend salt rubs, which are
very easy to give. Have a saturated
solution of common tablo salt. Hub
the body briskly, especially from tho
spine outward toward tho sides of tho
body and as soon as the shin Is well
reddened wash off with .moderately
cool water, and the chances are nil in
favor of restful condition. In case persons
suffer from cold feet at night I
would advise the bathing of the feet In
c<?M water before going to bed and
having a hot water bng always at
