pretty trick. It takes place at night by
tbe uncertain light of the rire, which
confuses the ey?? of the spectator. A
party of Indians come in and dai
bearing nothing appar?'utly about them, j
They form a ring, singing aid ?lancing.
Tbe ring opens, and th?:

a BinalJ plant. They sing s while, ami
tbe ring clos?**, ?gain When it opena a I
aecon?i time, the yucca baccata plant is
noticed. In Imlian ril rything
goes by fours. It is their -acred num?

berewith us. There are four acts in the
rite. The tecond is the plant in bud.
The third is the plant in fl??wer. Tbe
ring closes again, and when it opens
there ia the fruit, with great bean
inches long hanging to it. Thee.:,
nation is tbnt they bring into the inclo
aure with them the varions parts of the
plant, which they deftly pises in proper
position while the ring i- < ? pjsd during
tbe incantations.
"They use their blankets to cover the
work. For rude people like them, with
poor instruments, in the dayt> when
they had Hint knives, it must have
been a great task to prepare for this
trick. Our was workers and toyniakers
would not find it ?liflicult. The Indians
in the audience believe the dancers to
be gifted with supernatural power. Tbe
performance is partly religions worship
and partly amusement. It is partly
with a view of making abundant fruit
and partly for entertainment."?Chi?

Long experience has demonstrated
buttermilk to be an agent of superior
digestibility. It is indeed a true milk
peptone?that is, milk already partial?
ly digested, tbe coagulation of the co?
agulable portion being locas and flaky
and not of tbat firm, indigestible na?
ture which ia the result of the action of
tbe gastric juice npon sweet cow's milk.
It is a decided laxative, a fact which
must be borne in mind In the treatment
of typhoid fever and which may be
turned to advantage in the treatment
of habitual constipation. It is a diuretic
and may be used to advantage in some
kidney troubles. It resembles koumiss
in its nature, and. with the exception
of that article, It is the most grateful,
refreshing and digestible of the prod?
ucts of milk. It is invaluable in the
treatment of diabetee. either exclusive?
ly or alternating with skimmilk. In
some cases of gastric ulcer and cancer
of the stomach, it is the only food that
can be retained. ? Elgin Dairy Report.
