- THE FOUR GUARDIANS OF
LA GRANGE -
Another unlooked-for result natural-
Iy, followed the , baleful excellence of
this correspondence.. Miss Fanny .be-
• came more and more anxious to behold
again the author of her being and of
these extraordinary letters. One or
two vague.hints to that effect, thrown:
out in her correspondence, was received
with alarm by her guardians, and it
was finally resolved that the next let-
tershould be composed int such a man=
ner_as to effectually check this wanton
desire. For this purpose all - the guar-
dians assembled. :.Considerable- excite-
ment was manifested. I grieve td re
cord the fact: •that much ..liquor was
drunk, and that Captain Rats was
somewhat exalted and discursive. But
your true gentleman is never more fas-
tidious:and refined than when in his cups;
-and thegentle Captain Rate,. during
- the whole letter (save an occasioial-
slip), held his rhetorical hat deferents-,
ally in his hand• A copy of this epistle

Six weeks had elapsed and the duti-
ful answer to the above, confidently
looked for by the guardians, was due.
Nevertheless, as the time approached,
some nervousness on the part of Fleet
was manifested by that gentleman's
unrest and his frequent visits to Capt.

shoulder, and the Colonel grappled the
other. For a few seconds they shook
him furiously.

"Why, I reckon she's over at the

the post, a few feet from it, keeping my
eyes fixed npon'him all the while. His
body remained motionless, but his head
turned exactly with my movement.
Half way round, and his face was di-
rectly behind. Three quarters of the
circle, and still the same twist of the
neck and the stare following me. One
entire circle and no change. On I went,
twice round, and still _that watchful
stare and steady turn of the head. I
had all this time kept uninterrupted
watch of the bird. His talons grasped
the top of the post, and his body was
perfectly stationary. On I went, three
times round, and I began really to won-
der why the head did not drop off,
when all at once I discovered what I
had failed to notice before. When I
reached half way round from the front,
which was as far as he could turn his
head to follow my movement with com-
fort, he whisked his head through the
whole circle so instantaneously, and
brought it facing me again with such
precision, that I failed to detect the
movement, although I was looking in-
tently all the time. I repeated the ex-
periment many times afterwards on the
same bird, and I had always to watch
carefully to detect the movement of the
readjustment of this gaze. So rapid
and precise was this movement that I

A Test -of Indian Courage.
An Indian intertribal fair was held
not long ago,in Indian Territory,in order
to show some of the results of civilizing
the savages. A number of tribes at-
tended, and displayed articles of home
manufacture, such as needlework, em-
broidery, ace work and blankets. Many
of the Ihdians had.their photographs
taken, and showed a childish delight in
lookiyg at their faces. Others, how-
ever, could not be persuaded to go near
the camera. Yellow Bear, of the Ar-
rapahoes, was the first to pass through
the ordeal of a sitting. He suffered
himself to be properly seated, and the
camera to be brought to bear upon him.
But when the preparedplate was placed
in the box, and the clbth lifted, he leap-
ed to his feet with a bound and attempt-
ed to leave- the tent. All attempts to
reason with him failed. At last a pho-
tograph of a Cheyenne, taken some-
years
omeyears ago, was shown him. He looked
at it a moment, then went quietly to`
his chair, and sat there like a statue
while his negative was taken. He eg-
plained that no Cheyenne warrior milsa greater brave than be. The gigantic
Osages, on the other hand, would not I
approach the tent. They said the cam-
era Lobs them of their good spirits. The
Lickapos gave the same reason, and a
photographer was peremptorily ordered
out of their country on that ticpount.
The Indian is a profound believer in the
power of spirits for good or evil, and
takes care never to offend them. "

The Training of Girls.
The Rev. W: Gladden, of Springfie
Mass., recently sent out circulars
mothers in that city asking,l. What
the most' common defects in the tra
ing of our girls.? 2. What principles of
conduct are most iniportant, and what
habits are essential to the development
of noble and useful womanhood ? At
a -public meeting the results of his in-
quiries have been given. Female habits
of dress were referred to as more in-
jurious than male habits. Most wo-
men, too, take much less outdoor exer-
cise than is good for them. The lack
of exercise is largely caused by foolish
dress, which makes active exertion irn

Captain gravely ; "women don't take a tut

means it," he added, "any more than ast'
they do." Nevertheless the Captain
himself grew a little •anxious, and flay- all
ashed out of the room bareheaded.

smile of acquiescence lingering around
his mouth, Horton returned,• shook his.

hat, and vanished. In another mo-
ment the Colonel also • re-entered

Rats, and dashed out again.

slowly, emptied his glass thoughtfully,

more is done in wealthy families
teach the daughters habits of industry
than in those of moderate circum-
stances. A correspondent referred to
one woman who says she is proud that
her daughter never did any sweeping ;
another would not let her child do any
kitchen work. Another mistake is to
make dress the main business of life.
One letter referred to a woman who
said over her young infant, "I am so

finer than I could a boy," And Mr.

thought the women not wholly t
blame, because their vanity is stimu
lated by the foolish admiration of men
the girl who catches a'husbaud cnly by
fine dress too often finds that the prize
she has won is a broken heart. The
next mistakeis in devoting too much
time to novel reading, which excites
morbid and unreal ideas! of life and a
craving that cau never bre gratified. It
is mental dissipation, of a dangerous
character—scarcely less to than that of
drink. Another mistake is too early
initiation in the frivolities of society.
The average young lady 'of Springfield,
according to the lecturer, makes her de-
but at three, when she begins to go to
children's parties in dress elaborate
enough for a fancy ball, and is instruct -
in the arts of vanity and coquetry.

ud enjoys frequent evenings out. One
ood woman wrote- that she had the
earache for the unnatural, unhealthy
aiid.stimulating excitement of the roller
ating rink, whiela has none of the ad-
antages of outdoor • skating. Tho last
ror alluded to is the neglect to honor
d obey parents. Some sad instances
ere brought forward to show that too
ten a girl of thirteen regards herself
as her own mistress, and passes her
time at parties, sociables; etc., or on the
street, instead of studying. A cor-
respondent narrated the facts about
four respectable families in one congre-
gation in the city, in three of which
there was one daughter each, and in the
other there were three. Each of the
first three left school when she wanted
to, passed as much time on the streets
as she pleased, and is now a by -word
and a reproach. The other three like-
wise went to ruin while their parents
were attending prayer-meetingb, and
professed to know nothing of their
daughters' habits.
