Indian Medicine Bags.
The medicine bags of Navajoes, Znnia
and Apaches, ail kindred tribes in New
Mexico and Arizona, contain a curious
f nvder > ^ CWD af! corn pollen or hod-
dentin. Ibis powder, , which is the pol-
len of a rush, and also of maize, appears
g ,r. xtzyxszsi, ss
%£«£&St KSrSRK
and as a sanctifier of everything. A
pinch of it is thrown toward the sun
and then toward the four winds for
help in war or the chase, is put on the
frail of a snake to prevent harm from
it, placed on the tongue of the tired
hunter as a restorative, hung in bags
round tho necks of infants as a preserv-
ative and sprinkled on the dead. In
fact, every action of these Indians is
sanctified by this powder, so that, as
Captain Bourko writes in the ninth
volume of “The Report of the Bureau
of Ethnology” (Smithsonian), “plenty
of hoddentin has come to mean that a
particular performance or place is sa¬
cred. ”
Captain Bonrke shows many analogies
to the use of this sacred powder both
m the cast and among the ancient
Greeks and Romans, and it is clear that
similar practices with regard to “mr/1-
icine"—that is, magic—have prevailed
everywhere and in all ages, for super-
stition seems to be the universal hed-
tnge of man, so deeply ingrained in his
very nature that all the efforts of phi-
losophers and “thirteen” clubs will not
avail to root it out. Medicine bags or
amulets will continue to be worn open-
ly or secretly not only by the wild In-
dian and the Kaffir, but by many among
ourselves who cling to the beliefs hand-
ed down probably from remote prehis-
toric ages.—Chambers’Journal.

They Liked Victoria.
As nn indicatiou of the popularity at¬
tained very early in her life by Princess
Victoria it is interesting to hear that
great indignation was expressed all over
England when it was known that tho
child had not been present at her nu¬
de’s coronation in 1831. Some said that
the Duchess of Kent was iu fault, oth¬
ers blamed the prime minister, and
some asserted that Queen Adelaide was
responsible for tho omission. Letters
and articles were published in ail the
newspapers, and tho sensation did not
subside until the Duchess of Kent ex¬
plained that, owing to a weakness of
tho ankles from which tho little Victo¬
ria was then suffering, it had been"
thought wiser not to expose her to the
long standing which attendance at the
ceremony would have necessitated.—
Philadelphia Lodger.
Women May Yet Have Heards.
A. Brandt, in liis writings on the
human beard, proffers an opinion di¬
rectly opposing that of Darwin, that
the beard is a hereditary remnant of
animal growth. According to Brandt,
it is on acquisition, so that even the oc¬
casional beard of women has a prophet¬
ic significance, for as man has over¬
taken woman in his whole organiza¬
tion, so it is the case also with reference
to the beard. But slowly women aro
following, aud now 10 per cent of them
show a stronger growth. The woman
of the distant future would then like- 1
wise be adorned with a heard.—Dio
Umschau.
Cli&ldeau Weapons.
The analysis of Berthelot not only
shows that the Chaldean weapons, orna¬
ments and tools of 5,000 or 6,000 years
ago were of pure copper, hut that iron,
silver and gold were known. The cop¬
per age preceded that of bronze, which
appeared later in both Egypt and Chal¬
dea. It is further noted, moreover, that
the form of hatchets with handles, the
process of manufacture and even tho
practical uses were the same for the
pure copper hatchets of Chaldea aud
the prehistoric hatchets of Europe.
