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.

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.
