Creation of Mankind Flattering to Indians An ancient Sioux legend of the creation is u popular story in the West today. Chauneey Yellowrobe, son fff a Rosebud Sioux chieftain and a teacher in the federul Indian school at Rapid' City, S. D., always Includes this story In his repertoire. “When the Great Spirit had created his wonderful land here of mountains and prairies and streams and trees,” he tells his pupils, “he sought to fashion a human being worthy to enjoy Its grandeur. He shaped the clay in his hands and bilked It In his ramirtire, but wlien he drew It forth It was pale and had not baked rapidly enough, and he threw It behind him. "He molded another form and laid It In the hot ashes, hut when he drew It out It was blackened and crisp. So he tossed it to one side. Then he modeled anew figure, even more carefully than before, packed the red coals around it, and wheu be lifted it from the Are it was red knd sound and perfect. “And he put It Into the great wilderness of the West, and it multiplied Its kind and was the tenant of the Great Spirit’s own garden/’—Pathfinder Magazine. “Message Sticks” Open Books to Aborigines One of the mysteries of the aboriginal of Australia is the ease with which he reads “message-sticks” regardless of whether they have been written by one of his own tribesmen or a member of a distant tribe with which he has never come into contact. The signs and symbols apparently are the same among the aboriginal tribes, according to a writer in the Sydney Bulletin, who asserts that he has “seen an old aboriginal, to whom a stick from another Tribe many miles distant had been shown, translate the strange markings with fluency, and when some time afterward the same stlgk was shown again to another native, the second one’s translation agreed with that of the first.” A few white men have learned to decipher the conventional markings and symbols on the ’’message-sticks.”

Brought Back Old Times Curiosity is certainly what makes the world go round and keeps people prying into things and learning something new ail the time. The other day a little boy busily engaged in passing time by playing around the parking space wns seen to put a box and a paper bag underneath one of the windows of one of the shops that face on the space. Several people saw him leave this little bundle and walk away. One after another until three had done it, some ' men walked up to It and peeked in. They closed It up and walked away. The fourth could stand It no longer. He also walked up and on examining the contents laughed loud and long. The bag and box contained bits of iron and nails and other mysterious treasures dear to the childish heart. The curiosity of these people had brohght back to them memories of their own hoarding days.—Lawrence Telegram. Turning the Tables A class of children were-wrestling with a lesson in arithmetic, and the scholars found that fractions were too much for them. The trouble started when little declared that she would rather have half a pie than two-thirds of it. “How often have I tried to drive It into you,” said the exasperated' teacher, “that two-thirds of anything Is more than a half? Now you all know,” she went on, “that Doris prefers a small portion of pie to a large piece. Funny child, iSfn’t she?” Doris, having been held up as a model of stupidity, put up her hand. “Well,” asked the teacher, Sharply. “Please, miss,” sifld Doris, in a small, clear, piping voice, “I don’t like pie." Too Much Service “An elderly gentleman was. having lunch in our grill," said the hotel manager, “and, as was customary when his water glass showed evidence of use, a passing waiter or bus boy refilled it. After the fifth or sixth refilling the diner iet out a rour. ‘Stop!’ he cried. ‘l’ve been trying to get that water glass to the proper level ever since I came to this table. My doctor ordered me to take a pill in a third of a glass of water. Now I feel like an overloaded water-wagon and I still have the pill to take.’ "—Boston Transcript. v ~ i,— Not Used to Refined Fires in her country home a woman has a number of open fireplaces. One chilly day she asked her negro maid to make a fire in the drawing room, and entering a few minutes later she saw Hannah hopelessly contemplating the and irons and tongs. “Have you never made a fire before?" she asked, soifiewhat sharply. “Well, ma’am, I ain’t never made what *yo call refined fire —no, ma’am!” was the puzzled reply. Long Trail of Trees A tree trail, 500 miles long, stretches across the bleak Alaskan hills as a tribute to the native’s Ingenuity. The trail was made by setting willow posts, which took robt and grew into trees. Every now and then along the /out# native characters and English words denote distances from various camps yjilages.
