A CA-CHINA DANCE The Jabergs Witness Memorable Celebration by the Ilopi Indians. GREEN AND YELLOW Are the Colors Which Adorn the Breasts of the Noble Braves. Toreva, Ariz., April 23. 1910. Dear Friends; —According to tradition the Hopi's are descendants of the cliff dwellers of old, however, they think that ill luck befell the dwellers, the rocks tumbled upon them, and a few finally crawled up the cracks and they trace their parentage to the ones escaped. They commemorate this escape every year by having a “Ca-Chlna dance.” We had the pleasure of seeing one on last Saturday. About thirty men and boys participated, eleven of them being school boys. They have a small blanket over the loins and an Immense headgear, being made up of feathers and an odd looking mask, which is painted up until it looks ridiculous. Then they have evergreen branches tied together and hung over their backs. Their neck and breast Is painted up in green and yellow. They tie a wild cat or coyote skin around the waist, having the larger part dangling downward; also bones, shells of tortoise, or anything that will rattle. They do not use a drum in this dance. They have large earthenware Jars. Over this they put a board which covers the ovening, the boards having notches cut In them. They rub another piece of wood over the board. It Is not very musical, but answers the purpose. The dancers keep time and humming a tune which white folks cannot imitate, they stop in front of each dwelling place for possibly fifteen minutes; then move on to the next. It required an entire day to make the rounds. During a period of about six weeks they are very good. It is supposed that it took the dwellers that long to make their escape. They give their children presents, such as moccasins, dresses, silk handkerchiefs, burros, etc., but every child is tortured a little in some way, which represents the way the ones were tortured in making their escape. At a dance of this kind everybody is in attendance from the neighboring villages, ten miles distant. The village that gives the dance acts as host, feeding all visitors. We were very fortunate in getting several excellent views of same to give onr Indiana friends an idea of how Hopis dance. Yours sincerely, MR. AND MRS. JABERG.

Those Who Know it Praise it the Most. Numbers of people of this locality continue to suffer with rheumatism, kidney troubles, indigestion and a train of painful symptoms of a diseased stomach, but it is a question that any of them have tried the famous Root Juice compound. However, one by one, they are beginning to learn of the great merits of the discovery' through some relative or friend, then they go to the drug store and purchase a bottle of it. Even those who have lost faith in all medicines can hardly resist the temptation of trying Root Juice, as praise of it is being heard on every hand, and many of those who are praising it the most were great sufferers before it cured them.
