Im- :

The west is the trne home of the helio- | graph. The Department of Arizona, during the recent troubles over the lace lamented Geronimo, made what might have been termed a heliographic survey of the seat of the Indian troubles, and located on the maps the available points | of observation, with the direction and | ticns. In this way the country was cov- cred with a network of heliograph

The Indians, under the cross-fire of mysterious sun signals, decided that the | devil wasin league with the troopers, | and their superstitious fears, added to the constant harrying from the widely scattered parties of cavalry, brought them to terms, as never could have been done but forthe use of the flash signals.

So many of us knew Laddie and had looked into his kindly eyes and patted ais honest old head that we feel war- ranted in printing Will J. Davis's letter telling of the good old dog's last mo ments :

INDIANS TAKING Vapor Rarus.

-~

In this way an Indian takes a ““Turkich” or @ “Russian” bath; They dig a bole in the earth, in which oy lay stones, and upon which they build a fire, beating the stones to a red heat; they then carefully remove the cov)s; cutting a pum- ber of saplings they +tick one end in the ground, bend them over and place the ether end also in the ground, these extend over the hot stones in the shape of a helf loop. Over these poles er hoops the Indians place skins of animals or biankets, Ifthe “Rus-ian” or vapor bath ts de- tired, they then throw water upon the hut rocks, thus generating steam. These desiring the vapor bath crawl underneatia. After the pores cf the skin are opened and tiey profuscly perspire they crawl outand another [udian dasbes buckets of cold water over them, or they plunge into a near by stream. They are then rubbed thoroughly with Kickapoo Indian Oil, and are given copious drafts of Kickapoo Indian Sagwa, after which they rollup in blankets and have a souw-i slcep,

Who can teach the Indians anything about health? His own physique answers for his superior knowledge.

His preparations of roots, barks and herbs, now given to the world for the first time in the Kickapoo Indian Remedies are unegualled by any discoveries of the med. ical world of the whites. e

When yon feel twinges of pain in your joints, look out, a slight cold might devel- op Rheumatic Fever. Lf you have pains in your back or sides your liveris congested or your kidneys are not performing their work end puisonis gathering in your body.

Exposure to cold or contagious diseases would be fatal to you.

Pimples, blotches, and other humors {n- dicate that the poison is working in your blood. You feel languid, heavy, dull; you awake in the morning unrested. Beware!

Drive these symptoms away at once!

Take Kickapoo Indian Sagwa. It will cleanse your system, heal your diseased organs, purify and enrich the blood, and drive every taintof poison from = body.

Then you will feei strong, bright, alert an active as the Indian does.

Kickapoo Indian Sagwa is composed of nature’s remedies, gathered and prepared by nature’s children, who depend not upon book knowledge for their cures, but upon the leaves, the fowers, the roots and the herbs that are placed in the earth by an all-wise Providence forthe benefitof every living creature.

Why, look at the animals!

If your horse lacks bis accustomed vigor you are taught to turn him out to pasture.

You do so. The horse gets weil.

Why?

Because there ere in every fleld the tender leaves of some medicinal plant which instinct tells the animals to eat, and does for the poor old horse precisely what some other, or perhaps the same plant will do for ahuman — Restor: s the wasted energies!

The distance covered by some of the heliograph stations was remarkable. fifty or sixty miles were considered | aothing unusual, andon one “reach” 125 | miles were covered without an interven- | ing station,

The invention of the hpliograph be- longs to England, and it has been used extensively in her service in India and |

Ezypt, two countries where the atmos- | phereic conditions are very mucn as_ in our own arid West. The instrument was first brought to America in 1874,a.0d like agreat many other inventions ot John Bull, was greatly improve by lis Yankee cousin, so that the instruim-nt now in use in our signal corps is con-id ered by experts the most nearly perfect in the world.

The sp-ed of the heliograph is not so Kreat as that of tue regular telegraph in- strument, although the Morse alphabet is used. Ten or twetve words a minute is considered good work, and is a vast improvement over the old method of signaling by fiags,with which from three to four words a minute was the most that could be done.

an ally of the heliograph now in use by the signal corps is the flash lantern, whereby messages are sent at night over stretches of from ten to fitteen miles, though uncer favorable conditions, with

sent for forty miles at a single reach, The old method in night signaling was to use torches, after the manner cf flag | signals. One of these, known as the | foot torch , was placed on’ the ground in front of the observer, to give his loca- tion to the receiver at the other end of the line, and the ‘fly torch,” on the end of the long pole,was used in waving out the wor'ls.

This method was afterward supersed- ed by the use of lanterns with dark shut- ters worked by a key, as in the telegraph sounder, but these arrangements were likely to get out of order in the field, and now the energies of tie corps are bent to perfecting a brilliant lantern of light weight, whicn can be obscured by a regular heliograph screen. The lan- terns now in use in the corps are fed with a mixtare of kerosene and sperm oil, but experiments are now going on with a magnesium lamp that burns a magnesium tape, fed voles the reflector by clock work. It gives a very brilliant — at an expense of about 50 cents an 0ur,

The heliograph is regarded by army officers as oue of the most practical and useful inventions of modern military science, and in the case of a beleagured city would furnish a means of com muni- cation with the outside world that would discount balloons, carrier pigeons, and the magnetic telegraph, as the line could not be cut by the enemy and the mes- senger could not be captured or shot in transit. In the case of Washington, should this city ever chance to be block- aded, the heliograph would furnish a very certain means of communication for a radius of thirty miles around, and a signal observer statioved on top of the monument could flash messages almost if not quite to Baltimore if the condi- tions were at all favorable.—-Washing- ton Post.

The Criminal Eye.

Eyes are the most certain revealers of the criminal nature. Many an expert detective tells a crimimal by just one glance—not athim, butfromhim, The criminal eye varies greatly in setting, but not so much in color. Sometimes it is deeply placed in the Lead as if it tried to hide, fearing the result of its own in- voluntary revelation. Sometimes it is bulgy, protrusive like a frog’s and heavy lidded. Such eyes, taken in con- nection with some oiher signs, denote treachery, lechery, loquacity, menda- city and general cruelty, with just enough cowardice to prevent the caimi- nal from doing murder except insidious- ly or through others.

His forehead wes high and | To most people he rendered himself rather companionable, by a certain cheap face- tiousness that often masquerades as wit, and on account of this social quality Francesconi’s conceit was tolerated, and his huge egotism did not have its fu!l chance to repel people. But years be- fore his crime, a young girl—afterwards the Countess della Rocca—who had never left home and who lacked experi- ence of life, recoiled from him vio- lently when introduced. and refused to endure his presence. When questioned why she behaved thus towards one who stood so high socially, she answered: “If that man has not already murdered people, he will do so.” This girlish pro- hecy very soon came true, and when | mbroso inquired by what sign she had foretold, she replied, **The eyes—I saw his eyes.”—-Donahoe’s Magazine.

What Paris Shop Girls Karn.

A Paris shop giv! ordinarily begins at |

| asalary of from $5 to $8 a month. Be- sides, she invariably has a commission | | on her sales, varying from one-half to one percent, according to her success. Many receive as high as $30 a month in salary,and make much more in comm:is- sions. Retail aaa is the great business of all Paris, but the better places are | hard to get, and require almost as much | pushing and intlueuce as to obtain a gov- | ernment position in America. The most | attractive girls will alway stand the best | chance on the strength of their good | looks.—New York Sun.

A BEAUTIFUL BALL 00M.

Novel Ideas Embodied in the Uangings and Colorings.

Ina handsome private mansior the ball room has been decorated in a novel manner, It is in a one-story addition to the house, without side windows. The walls are hung with a brocade silk fab- ric, extending from the top of a paneled sainscot, finished in white and goid, to the bottom of the ~~ cove cornice, of papier mache in an elaborate design, re- presenting fauos and nymphs in ae wood- land festival, and fisisned in ivory white, touched sparingly with gold, Here aud there, breaking through the lines of the cornice, are large pear-sha ed bulbs of Jeaded glass, very delicate in coloring, and 89 arranged, in a metal framework, as to open, disclosing a_re- cess for the electric lamps, which light the room by night. By day, skylights which are just above, permit a softened light to shine through the same glass buibs. The ceiling is painted with fiy- ing cupids and fleecy clouds upon a sky of blue; and the floor is of oak, waxed and polished to a surface so smooth that the dancers seem to glide over it with an ease unrivaled even by the winged feet of the messenger of the gods.—Painting and Decorating.

Complications iu South Florida,

A good story comes from the Manatee River. A man named Westfield had a quarrel with his wife and they decided to separate, dividing their household goods between them. Westticid took his portion of the goods to his boat, but, after thinking awhile over the metter, de- cided that his wife had the best of the bargain, which so enraged him that he took an axe and went back to the house and broke up her portion, The woman swore out a warrant forhim next day, and Westfield engaged a promising young attorney of Braidentown to de- fend him, After investigating the case the lawyer decided that his client was in a bad box, so he advised bim to make up with his wife and try to stop the prosecution, This the man su ed in doimg, but the county authorities re- fused to let the matter te dropped. So the lawyer then advised him to kidnap his wife and baby and sail to Cinnabel Island,

The matter was arranged for the next night. The woman was escorted to the

boat where her husband was awaiting |

her by the lawyer and a constable whom he had engaged to assist kim. The law- yer and constable then returned to the \ouse for the baby, but by mistake they got another womaa’s baby, and the mis- take was not discovered until the boat was well on its way to Cinnabel. The man was afraid to return for the right baby, thinking that he would be arrested and prosecuted. Ths happened several
