In those days our Indian cousins were free to wander -wherever they wished, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. - -Some of them had their homes on the great plains, where herds of wild -buffaloes supplied them with food and clothing. Others dwelt by the -shores of lakes and rivers. Whenever they wished a change, they moved -their camps from one spot to another. They had little to fear except the -attacks of unfriendly tribes of their own race. - -When the white men, with their greater skill and knowledge, came to -America, many troubles began for our red cousins. These troubles were -such as they had never known before. They were driven away from the -homes that were so dear to them. Great numbers were killed. Strong -drink, given to them by the white strangers, was the ruin of thousands. -Still others died from sickness and want. - -The people whom we have called Indians ever since Columbus gave them -that name now think with sadness of the old free and happy days before -the white traders gave them beads and blankets in exchange for large -tracts of land. - -There were then no roads, no cities, no stores or factories in all this -vast continent, and yet our red cousins were freer and happier than they -can ever hope to be again. - -MALDEN, MASS., _May, 1904_. - - - - -List of Illustrations - - - PAGE - YELLOW THUNDER _Frontispiece_ - "SHE SWINGS ON THE BRANCH OF A TREE" 15 - "HE WILL GIVE HIS SON WISE WORDS OF COUNSEL" 29 - "HE SHOOTS DOWN THE RIVER" 49 - "HIS WIFE IS STANDING IN THE DOOR OF THE WIGWAM" 57 - "THEY . . .

Do not be afraid of your little cousin -because he bears such a terrible name. It is not his fault, I assure -you. His grandmother had a dream the night he was born. She believed the -Great Spirit, as the Indians call our Heavenly Father, sent this to her. -In the dream she saw the heavens in a great storm. Lightning flashed and -she constantly heard the roar of thunder. When she awoke in the morning -she said, "My first grandson must be called 'Yellow Thunder.'" And -Yellow Thunder became his name. - -But his loving mamma does not generally call him this. When he is a good -boy and she is pleased with him, she says, "My bird." If he is naughty, -for once in a great while this happens, she calls him "bad boy." - -For some reason I don't understand myself, she rarely speaks his real -name. Perhaps it is sacred to her, since she believes it was directed by -the Great Spirit. - -Yellow Thunder lives in the forests of your own land, North America. His -skin is a dull, smoky red, his eyes are black and very bright, his hair -is black and coarse. His body is straight and well formed. He can run -through the woods as quickly and softly as a deer. He lives in a bark -house made by his mother. His father is strong and well, yet he did not -help in building it. He thinks such work is not for men. It is fit only -for women. - -When I tell you how it is made, you will not think it is very hard work. -Yellow Thunder's patient mamma chose the place for her home, and then -gathered some long poles in the forest. She set these poles in a circle -in the ground, bent them over at the top, and tied them. She left a -small hole at the top. The framework of the house was now complete. What -should she have for a covering? She went out once more into the woods -and got some long sheets of white birch bark. At the end of each sheet -she fastened a rim of cedar wood. The sheets of bark were hung on the -framework, with the rim at the bottom of each one, and the house was -finished. The rim would be useful in keeping the bark from being lifted -by the winds. But, if there should be a severe storm, the Indian woman -would lay stones on the rims to keep the bark down more firmly still. - -This is Yellow Thunder's simple home, summer and winter. You would -probably freeze there in the cold days of December, but the Indian boy -was brought up to endure a great deal of cold. - -Let us look inside. We must first lift the deerskin which hangs in the -doorway. Does the family sit on the cold, bare ground, do you think? Oh, -no; Yellow Thunder has helped his mamma make good thick rugs out of the -bullrushes and flags which they gather every autumn. These rugs are very -pretty, for they are woven and dyed with the bright colours the Indian -women know how to make. There are many of these mats, because they are -used for many purposes. Yellow Thunder sleeps on one of them at night. -In the day-time he sits on a mat whenever he is in the house. But he is -such a strong lad, he is out-of-doors nearly all the time, both in -sunshine and in storm. - -In the middle of the house you will notice there is a bare spot covered -with clean sand. This is the place where the fire is made. It is -carefully swept when there is no fire. If you look directly over the -fireplace, you can see the sky. On rainy days, unless the mother is -cooking, she keeps the hole covered with a piece of deerskin, that the -inside of the house may be dry. - -But how does she prepare the food for breakfast, for that is the -principal meal of the day to the Indian? A strong hook is fastened in -the framework of the house, above the fireplace. The Indian mother hangs -a pot on the hook, puts in the meat or fish, and it boils quickly over -the burning twigs which her little boy has gathered. - -Let us look around the wigwam. Of course, you have long ago heard that -name for the Indian's house. What beautiful baskets of rushes those are! -I wonder how the red men discovered the way of making such beautiful -colours. Besides many other things, the jewelry and clothing of the -whole family are kept in these baskets. Look up at the sides of the hut -and notice the bows and arrows. And, yes! there is a real tomahawk, -with its sharp edge sticking in that corner. Ears of corn braided -together are hanging from the framework. - -[Illustration: "SHE SWINGS ON THE BRANCH OF A TREE."] - -But the prettiest thing we see is the baby's cradle, fastened to a peg. -Two bright black eyes are looking out of it, and that is all we can see -of Yellow Thunder's baby sister, "Woman of the Mountain." It took the -loving mother a long time to make that cradle. She was very happy while -doing it, for she loves her baby tenderly. - -It is hardly right to call it a cradle. Baby-frame is a better name. It -was made in three pieces, out of the wood of the maple-tree,--a straight -board about two feet long for the bottom, a carved foot-board, and a bow -which is fastened to the sides and arches over the baby's head. These -are all bound together with the sinews of a deer. It is lined with moss, -and then Woman of the Mountain is fastened in her queer little bed -with straps, which her mamma has made beautiful with bead work. Moss is -placed between her feet, her hands are bound at her side, her feet are -bound down also, and a beaded coverlet is placed over her tiny body. She -looks like a little mummy. - -If it is stormy she is hung up on a peg in the hut to swing, but if it -is a pleasant day, she swings on the branch of a tree and watches the -leaves flutter and the birds sing. She is a happy little baby, although -you would hardly think it possible. She got used to her imprisonment -almost as soon as she was born. She doubtless thinks it is all right. - -When mamma goes out into the forest to gather wood, or into the corn -field to work, Woman of the Mountain goes too. The baby-frame is -fastened on her mother's back by a pretty beaded strap bound over the -woman's forehead. - -When the Indian baby was only two days old, she was fastened into her -cradle and carried all day on mamma's back while she was weeding the -garden. To be sure, the woman stopped two or three times to feed her -baby, but the little thing was not once taken out of her frame. - -Perhaps you would like to hear a lullaby the Indian mamma often sings to -her little one as she swings in her frame. I fear you could not -understand the Indian words, so I will give them as Mrs. Elizabeth Oakes -Smith wrote them in English: - - Swinging, swinging, lul la by, - Sleep, little daughter, sleep, - 'Tis your mother watching by, - Swinging, swinging, she will keep, - Little daughter, lul la by. - - 'Tis your mother loves you, dearest, - Sleep, sleep, daughter, sleep, - Swinging, swinging, ever nearest, - Baby, baby, do not weep; - Little daughter, lul la by. - - Swinging, swinging, lul la by, - Sleep, sleep, little one, - And thy mother will be nigh-- - Swing, swing, not alone-- - Little daughter, lul la by. - -You can understand from this how dearly the Indian mother loves her -baby,--just as dearly, I do not doubt, as your own mamma has always -loved and cared for you. - -But what is Yellow Thunder's stern-looking father doing all the time? He -has no store to keep, no mill to grind, no factory to work in. There are -only three things which deserve his attention. At least that is what he -thinks. He hunts or fishes, goes to war, and holds councils with the men -of his tribe. Everything else he believes is woman's work, and from the -Indian's standpoint, woman is much beneath a man. - -After all, the men's work is really the hardest. Sometimes it is easy -for them to find plenty of food. Then Yellow Thunder's father comes home -rejoicing with the big load he carries. Perhaps he has a red deer -hanging over his shoulder; perhaps it is a bear which he has chased many -miles before he could get near enough to kill it; or it may be some -raccoons for a delicious stew. - -But, again, it may be stormy weather. The rivers are frozen over and -snow covers the ground. Then, perhaps, the hunter has little success -with his bow and arrow, and searches long and far before he can find -anything to satisfy his children's hunger. He feels sad, but not for a -moment does he think of complaining or giving up. It is his duty to -obtain food for his family. It does not matter how cold he gets or how -wet he may be. He keeps travelling onward. He will not give up. If he -does not at last get enough for all, he will insist on his wife and -children satisfying their hunger first. He would scorn to show that he -himself is tired, or hungry, or suffering in any way. - -We can understand now why the Indian baby is pinned down in its cradle -and not allowed to move freely. It is its first lesson in endurance. It -must learn to be uncomfortable and not to show that it is so. It must -learn to bear pain, and neither cry nor pucker its mouth. It must learn -to appear calm, no matter how it feels. - -The hunt is pleasant sometimes, you see, but at others it is work of the -hardest kind. - -The second duty of the red boy's father is war. He must protect his home -from human and wild beast enemies. But I'm really afraid that it is a -pleasure for him to fight. If Indians had not been at war so much among -themselves, it would have been far harder for the white people to -conquer them. I suppose you children have all heard the story of the -bundle of sticks, but I will repeat it. - -A certain man was about to die. He gathered his sons around him to give -them good advice. He showed them some sticks fastened tightly together. -Then he asked each one to try to break the bundle. No one could do it. -When he saw that they failed, he separated the sticks, and showed them -how easy it was to break each one by itself. - -"Take a lesson from this," said the man. "If you are united and work -together, you will succeed in anything you undertake, for no one can -break your strength. If, however, you quarrel among yourselves and try -to work each for himself, you will be like the separate twigs,--easily -broken." - -It has been like this with the Indians. They have fought against each -other, tribe with tribe. They are very brave and have great courage. But -they have not understood that they should work together. So the white -man came and was able to conquer them. - -Besides hunting and going to war, Yellow Thunder's papa is often busy in -the council. All matters of business are settled here. New chiefs are -chosen at the council; wrong-doers are punished according to what it -decides, and treaties with other tribes or the white men are talked over -and agreed upon. Sometimes a council will last many days. It is always -opened with a prayer to the Great Spirit, thanking him for his good -gifts to the people. Each evening, after the business of the council is -over, games are played by old and young. It is a time for feasting and -pleasure. No business with other people is really settled by a council -without gifts of wampum to bind the bargain. Of course you have heard -about wampum. Perhaps you have been told it is the Indian's money. There -are two kinds of wampum. One is purple and the other white. The white -wampum is shaped into beads out of the inside of large conch shells, -while the purple is made from the inside of the mussel shell. These -beads are strung on deer's sinews and woven into belts. A belt of white -wampum is a seal of friendship between two tribes. It is the same as a -sacred promise which must not be broken. It is the most precious of all -things an Indian owns. - -Yellow Thunder's papa is very fond of tobacco. He always carries a -beaded pouch filled with it. He believes that the Great Spirit gave -tobacco to the Indian. When he smokes it, it opens a way through which -he may draw near God, and be taught by him. His pipe and tobacco will be -buried with him when he dies, as he thinks they will be needed on his -journey toward heaven. He smokes at the council. He smokes around the -camp-fire when he is away hunting. He smokes in the evening time as he -sits with his friends and tells stories of the chase or listens to -legends of his people. - -I hardly know what this Indian father would do without his pipe, as it -seems to give him so much comfort and pleasure. - -See! here he comes now. Yellow Thunder is at the door of the lodge, -watching him as he walks quickly down the forest path. He is truly -called a "brave." He looks as though he would fear no danger. How -straight is his body, and how strong are his muscles! - -He wears leggings of deerskin, finely worked with beads. They are -fastened just above his knees. A short kilt is gathered around his -waist. It is also made of deerskin, but is worked around the edge with -porcupine quills stained in several colours. It is bitterly cold to-day, -so he wears a blanket over his shoulders. His head is shaved bare, -excepting the scalp-lock at the back. It must be this which makes him -look so fierce. - -I want you to notice his feet. They step softly and yet firmly. You -could not walk as he does. Perhaps you have pointed shoes with high -heels. The Indian would look with scorn upon these. What! Cramp the toes -with such uncomfortable things! Impossible! He covers his feet in the -most sensible manner with the soft moccasins made by his wife. They fit -his feet exactly. He can run like a deer, or creep along the ground like -a wildcat in these coverings, and no one will hear him coming. Each -moccasin is made of a single piece of deerskin, seamed at the heel and -in front. The bottom is smooth and without a seam, while the upper part -is worked with beads. - -Yellow Thunder's good mamma uses a curious needle and thread. The needle -is made from the bone of a deer's ankle, and her thread is of the sinews -of the same animal. What would the Indian have done without the deer in -the old days before the white man came to this country? I can't imagine, -can you? - -This animal furnished much of his food and clothing; ornaments were made -of his hoofs; needles and many other things came from his bones. Even -the brains of the creature were used in tanning skins of animals. They -were mixed with moss, made into cakes, and dried in the sun. This -mixture will keep a great length of time. Whenever it is needed, a piece -of this brain-cake is boiled in water, and the skin is soaked in it -after the hair is scraped off. Then it is wrung out and stretched until -it is dry. But even then the skin is not ready for use. It will tear -very easily. It must be thoroughly smoked on both sides. This work all -belongs to Yellow Thunder's mamma. His father has nothing to do with it. - -Suppose we follow the red man into his home. Ugh! What a smoke there is -inside! We can hardly see across the wigwam. We shall need to lie down -on the mat as the Indian does. Our eyes will be blinded unless we do -this. The wife has a good meal waiting for her husband, but she will not -eat till he has finished. That is Indian good manners. - -His wooden bowl and plate, together with a boiled corn-cake, are placed -on the mat in front of the man. Venison stew is served him out of the -big pot, and a dish of sassafras tea is also set before him. There is no -milk to put into this queer drink, but if he wishes to sweeten it, he -can add some delicious maple syrup. This is certainly not a bad meal for -any one. - -The red man eats and drinks, while scarcely a word is said to his -waiting family. When he has finished his meal, he will light his pipe -for a quiet smoke, after which his wife and child satisfy their hunger. - -Yellow Thunder's mamma knows how to prepare many a good dish. She can -make several different kinds of corn bread. She prepares soups of deer -and bear meat. She boils the hominy, on which our little red cousin -pours the maple syrup. She makes teas of wild spices and herbs which -grow near the hut. But these drinks are not likely to keep Yellow -Thunder awake at night. Neither is there danger of his starving, so long -as his father can hunt and his mother can gather her crops. His food is -suited to make him strong and healthy, and he does not miss the dainties -of which you are so fond. - -The stern-looking father never thinks of interfering in the management -of the home. That is his wife's right. She gives him his sleeping-place -and the corner in which he shall put his belongings. She decides on what -shall be cooked, and what shall be stored away. She is the ruler in the -home. - -But, on the other hand, he does not expect her to scold. She should -always be obliging and happy in entertaining his friends. She should be -ready to furnish him a good meal whenever he comes home. - -As yet, he does not take much notice of his only son. He does not -correct the boy's faults. He seldom takes him on his hunts. He has left -all care of the boy to his wife up to this time. - -But Yellow Thunder is now twelve years old. He will soon be a man. In a -year or two, at most, his father will begin to make a companion of his -son in hunting and fishing. He will teach him the ways of a brave Indian -warrior. Then there will be no more woman's work for Yellow Thunder. - -When the time comes for this great change in his life, he will go out -into the forest to fast. No one will insist on his doing this. He will -himself desire it. It is the same as a baptism to a young Indian. His -father will go with him to the lonely spot where he decides to stay. He -will give his son wise words of counsel. He will urge him to be brave -and keep his fast as long as possible. He will be able to show by this -how much courage and spirit he possesses, and how great a man he desires -to be. Then he will leave his son alone and go back to the village. - -[Illustration: "HE WILL GIVE HIS SON WISE WORDS OF COUNSEL."] - -A day passes by, and Yellow Thunder grows faint. Two days now are gone, -and the boy's thirst is intense. At the end of three days his father -comes back and finds his son lying weak and dizzy beneath the trees. He -gives him a little water, but no food, for Yellow Thunder says he can -fast still longer. - -The father goes away again, leaving the son to watch for the visions -which will surely come. It will be decided now what the red boy's -future will be. The longer he can fast, the greater man he will become -among his people. No one can be a chief unless he has fasted many days -at the beginning of his manhood. - -We cannot tell what Yellow Thunder will be, but we know that his visions -will always be remembered. He believes that his guardian spirits will -appear in some form or another to him, and he will get instruction about -his future life. He will endure his fast bravely as long as possible. - -It sometimes happens that Indian boys die at this time of fasting, but -we feel sure that Yellow Thunder will live and be a joy to his parents -to the end of their lives. - -But how is the Indian mother preparing him for this great test? She -teaches him, first of all, to _obey_. In no other way would it be -possible for him to become a great man. He must heed everything that -his father and mother tell him. He must always be ready to do their -bidding. It is the greatest token of rudeness to appear curious, -therefore he must ask no questions. He must love the truth. A lie is -almost unknown among the Indians; they scorn it as the mark of a -cowardly and mean nature. He must be brotherly to all creatures, and -ready to give to others always. - -Yellow Thunder has never seen a pauper or beggar in his life. Whenever -any one comes to his home, his mother hastens at once to prepare food -for the visitor. It is almost a law to her to do so. If relatives should -come for a visit, they will be made welcome and allowed to stay as long -as they desire. If they should remain for the rest of their lives, they -would never be asked to leave. "Be hospitable to all," is a maxim -planted in the heart of every Indian child. - -Yellow Thunder is taught that everything should be shared in common. -The Indian does not say, "My land." It is always "Ours." The people of a -tribe are truly brothers to each other. - -The red boy's mamma does not need to teach him that theft is wrong. It -is almost unknown among his people. The idea of doing such an -unbrotherly thing does not enter their heads. No wonder there are -neither poorhouses nor prisons among these people. We call them savages, -but there are many things we could copy with profit from them. Don't you -think so, children? "Live and learn," is an old saying, and I think we -would do well to remember it when we read the lives of our cousins in -many lands. - -Yellow Thunder does not go to church or Sunday school. I doubt if Sunday -is any different to him from any other day. But his mamma has taught him -that there is one loving Heavenly Father for all. If Yellow Thunder is -good and brave, he will go to the "happy hunting-grounds" when he dies. -At least, this is what he is taught to believe. There will be enough -food and an abundance of animals to kill. Everything that the Indian -loves best to do in this life, he thinks can be found in his heaven. But -there is no place there for the white man. George Washington was the -only white man who ever lived whom they thought fit to enter their -paradise. The exception was made in his case because he was brave and -good, and treated the Indians fairly and justly. - -Yellow Thunder's mother often tells him of a prophecy which was made -long ago by the wise men of her tribe. They said that a great monster, -with white eyes, would come out of the East and consume the land. Did -the prophecy come true, you ask? Yes, my dears, it was the white race. - -When Yellow Thunder thinks of the great forests which his people once -owned, and of the numbers of animals roaming there, when he remembers -the wars which have been fought and lost with the "great monster," his -heart grows bitter. - -Don't blame him, children, but feel sorry for your little Indian cousin. -His people have certainly had a hard time. They have been very cruel in -warfare with us, but they felt they were treated unjustly, and we were -taking their homes away from them. - -Yellow Thunder believes in the Great Father, as I have told you. His -mother has also taught him that there are many spirits, both good and -bad. God made the good spirits to help him in his care of this great -world. The Indian believes that the wind is a spirit of great power. The -thunder is another spirit, whom he calls Heno. Heno makes the clouds and -the rain. It is he who forms the thunderbolt and sends it to destroy -the wicked. - -The Great Spirit is very kind to give men such a helper, and when the -harvest time comes, Yellow Thunder gives him thanks and prays to him -that he will continue to send Heno into the world. - -There is an old legend among the Indians that Heno once dwelt in a cave -behind Niagara Falls. The mighty rushing noise of the water was pleasing -to him. - -Yellow Thunder pictures the Spirit of the Winds to himself. This spirit -has the face of an old man who is always in the midst of discord, for -the four winds are never at peace with each other. - -Then there are the spirits of Corn, of Beans, and of Squash. Each one of -these is looked upon as a friend of the red race, for these vegetables -are prized by them above all others. - -It is believed that these spirits have the forms of beautiful women, and -that they dwell happily together and are very fond of each other. - -There are many other good spirits. The red boy feels their presence in -the forests and out upon the waters. They are ever around him to protect -him when he is good. But, if he should be bad? Ah! There are many evil -spirits, too, who are only too ready to work mischief and harm among -men, if they have the chance. - -Yellow Thunder believes that animals have souls, only they are not as -wise as men. Sometimes, when they have done great wrongs, men have been -changed into animals. Our cousin thinks the wolf was once a little boy -like himself, but the poor little fellow was neglected by his parents, -and was transformed into an animal. The raccoon was once a shell on the -seashore. What curious ideas these are! Where do you suppose they came -from before they lived in the minds of the red race? - -While we are speaking of these things, I will stop and tell you of -something that happened at Yellow Thunder's house the other day. His -father, Black Cloud, came home from the hunt bringing a big black bear. -It was so heavy that two other men had to help in carrying it. They had -discovered the creature in a hollow tree and had easily killed it. But -now comes the amusing part of the story. As soon as the bear was laid -down in front of the hut, Yellow Thunder and his mamma went up to it and -began to kiss and stroke the dead animal's head. Black Cloud did the -same, and then they all begged the bear's pardon for having killed it. -Black Cloud said, "I would not have done so, had we not needed food, so -I know you will forgive me." - -Then the head of the bear was cut off and laid on one of the best mats. -It was decorated with all the jewelry owned by the family. There were -silver armlets and bracelets, as well as belts and necklaces of wampum. -Tobacco was placed in front of its head, while each one in turn lighted -a pipe and blew the smoke into the bear's nostrils. This was to turn -away its anger from those who had killed it. Black Cloud then made a -speech to the bear. - -I suppose these people believed that the spirit of some human being had -come to live in the animal's body, and they looked upon it as a friend -whom they were forced to kill. - -After all this ceremony, the fat of the bear was boiled down to oil, the -meat was cut up and dried for future use, while the head was put into -the pot to cook for dinner. I do not doubt that when the bear stew was -served, Yellow Thunder did not give a single thought to the idea of -eating a friend. He had done his duty in asking its forgiveness, and -that was enough. - -What kind of a school does Yellow Thunder attend? It is a very large -one. It covers the forests, the rivers, and the lakes. And who is his -teacher? The very same one who gives so many lessons to Anahei in the -hot land of Borneo, so far away. Dame Nature is her name. She is usually -loving and kind, but sometimes she shows her anger in the storms and -winds which rage about our little cousins. - -The lessons which Yellow Thunder learns are very different from those -given Anahei, for they live in vastly different climates. Anahei, you -remember, is near the equator, while Yellow Thunder lives in the -temperate lands. He learns from the ice and the snow, he sees different -animals, plants, and trees. - -He is quicker, stronger, and brighter than Anahei, for the cold winters -make him so. His eyes are very sharp, his ears will hear sounds that -yours would not notice, his feet can travel many miles without his -having a thought of being tired. - -He has no compass, and yet he can journey in the forest in any direction -he may choose without losing his way. How does he do it? He has learned -to notice that the tops of the pine-trees generally lean toward the -rising sun. He has discovered that moss grows toward the roots of the -trees on their north side, while the largest branches of trees are -usually found on the south side of their trunks. - -In fact, Yellow Thunder has learned so many of Nature's secrets that, if -he should reveal them all, they would fill many books. - -This cousin of yours knows nothing about writing as you understand it. -He puts all his stories into pictures. He could send you a letter with -two or three pictures, telling a long, long story, but I don't believe -you could understand one-quarter of it. His little Indian friends would -be able to read it all at a glance. - -Their eyes are well trained, although they know nothing about your -alphabet or vertical penmanship. - -Black Cloud often finds a bark picture hanging to some tree while he is -hunting. It is better than any guide-post such as we make, because it -will tell him so much. He will know from it that other red men have -journeyed this way, and what kind of experience they had. Perhaps it -will warn him of danger, or explain to him the best direction to go if -he wishes to find more game. - -You may like to see such a picture. I will copy one which Mr. Henry Rowe -Schoolcraft saw while he was living among the Indians. He was exploring -the country with a party of white men and two Indian guides. They lost -their way during the day and camped out all night in a deep forest. -Before they went away on the next morning, the Indian guides hung this -picture on a tree: - -[Illustration] - -They thought it might be of use to others passing there. - -Figure I. is the officer who commanded the party. You may know this -because he carries a sword. II. has a book in his hand. This shows he is -the secretary. III. carries a hammer, because he is a geologist. IV. -and V. are attendants. VI. is the man who interprets to the party the -words of the Indian guides. The group of eight figures marked IX. -consists of soldiers. Their muskets stand in the corner, and are marked -X., VII. and VIII. are the two Indian guides. You will notice that they -are drawn with no hats, which shows at once that they are not white men. -XIII., XIV., and XV. represent fires, showing that each separate -group--officers, soldiers, and Indian guides--had a separate one. -Figures XI. and XII. are the pictures of a prairie-hen and a tortoise, -which were the only game they had been able to kill that day. The pole -to which the piece of bark was fastened leaned in the direction which -the party was going to travel. There were three notches in the pole to -show the distance they had already journeyed. - -Yellow Thunder learns to read these bark pictures, and also to make -them himself. He enjoys this work very much, and can tell a long story -quickly. If I were you, I would write him a letter and ask him to answer -it in his own way. - -This cousin of yours has many things to keep him busy. I have already -told you of the mats and baskets which he helps his mother in making. He -goes with her to get the bark which she will use in mending the wigwam -and making many useful things. - -He makes barrels out of red elm bark in which to store groundnuts, corn, -and beans. He cuts ladles out of wood, which the family will use in -eating their soup and hominy. On the end of each ladle Yellow Thunder -carves the figure of some animal. Perhaps it is a beaver or a squirrel. -He does it very neatly. Whatever the Indian boy does, he does well. - -Yellow Thunder makes sieve-baskets out of splint. His mother can sift -the corn-meal through one of these as nicely as your mamma can do it -with her wire sieve. - -He makes salt-bottles out of corn-husks, wooden bowls and pitchers, and -many other things for the simple housekeeping. All this work is done -during the cold winter months, while his mother is making moccasins and -kilts for his father and himself. - -When spring opens, she must till the ground for her corn, and Yellow -Thunder can now be of great help. She will miss him greatly when he -begins to hunt with his father. She will then have all this work to do -alone. - -I wish you could see the Indian woman's garden. It is kept so carefully, -I don't believe you would be able to find a weed. Yellow Thunder's -mother did a queer thing the first night after it was planted. She stole -out of the wigwam alone into the darkness. She went behind a bush, and -took off all her clothing. Taking her skirt in her hand, she ran -swiftly around the field of corn, dragging the garment after her. She -believed this would keep away all insects which might destroy the crop, -and that now it would be sure to yield well. For what a sad thing it -would be if winter should come with no bread to eat through the long -months! - -Yellow Thunder is very fond of his mother's corn bread. The corn is -first hulled by boiling in ashes and water. The tough skin will now slip -off easily. After being washed and dried, it is pounded in a mortar into -flour. Then it is sifted and made into cakes about an inch thick. These -cakes are dropped into boiling water, and are quickly made ready for our -red cousin to eat. Since he was a baby, he has lived almost entirely on -corn bread, together with the game and fish which his father brings -home. - -Yellow Thunder eats something on his corn cakes which you like as much -as he does himself. It is maple syrup. The sugar which his mother makes -from it is the only kind he has ever tasted in his life. It is his work -to tap the trees in the spring, and bring home the jars of sap, which -his mother will boil down to syrup and sugar. - -When her husband goes out on a long hunt, he must take food with him, as -it may be a long time before he gets any game. He cannot carry the -boiled corn cakes, as they would soon crumble and grow sour. His good -wife roasts some corn until it is quite dry. She pounds it into powder -and mixes it with maple sugar. It is packed away in Black Cloud's -bearskin pocket. He need not worry about hunger now, even if he is away -from home many days. He has everything he needs to keep hunger away. - -Yellow Thunder is very proud of the beautiful canoe he has just -finished. He had to search a long time before he was able to find a -tree which suited him. He wanted to make his canoe of birch bark because -it is much lighter than the bark of the elm-tree, of which his father's -boat is made. - -He needed a strip at least twelve feet long, because the canoe must be -made of one piece. Two of his boy friends went with him and they at last -obtained a strip which was just right. They helped him bend it into -shape, until the side pieces came together in two pointed ends. How do -you suppose they fastened the edges together? They made thread out of -the bark itself, and with this Yellow Thunder sewed the pieces together. - -He next got strips of white ash for the rim of his canoe, because the -wood of that tree is very elastic. The boat must be made stronger still -with ribs of the ash, and the work is done. - -The canoe is a little beauty. It is so light that the red boy can lift -it out of the water and carry it with the greatest ease from place to -place. I wish you could see him as he shoots down the river in his boat. -He moves so rapidly, he will be out of sight in a few minutes. - -[Illustration: "HE SHOOTS DOWN THE RIVER."] - -The Indians of the northwestern part of our country used to make their -canoes of cedar logs. The cedar trees there grow so large that canoes -eighty feet long, and large enough to hold one hundred men, were made of -a single piece. One was exhibited at the Columbian Exposition at -Chicago. It was twelve feet wide. - -Yellow Thunder has taken his bow and arrows with him to-day, as he may -come upon a flock of wild ducks. He would like to surprise his mother -with some birds for supper. - -He can shoot well. He will not fail to secure some game. He has -practised archery ever since he was a tiny little fellow. He would feel -himself disgraced for ever if he should disappoint his father when they -go out to hunt. - -I can't tell you how many bows and arrows he has already made in his -lifetime. He has now grown so large and strong that he uses a bow three -and a half feet long. It has such a difficult spring that I fear you -could not bend it far, but Yellow Thunder can set his arrow to the head -with ease. But it takes skill and great strength to do it. - -Perhaps you wonder why the arrow is feathered at the end. This will make -it go straight ahead in the direction in which it is sent. Sometimes -Yellow Thunder uses arrow-heads cut out of flint. They are dangerous -things, and will kill deer and even men. Indians have often been known -to place poison on the arrow-heads they used in warfare. The agonies of -the men who were shot by them were terrible indeed. - -Black Cloud has not been to war since Yellow Thunder was born. There -are so few of the red race now, and the numbers of the white men are so -great, that there is not much chance of warfare. - -However, many stories are told in Black Cloud's lodge of the good old -days when the war-whoop was commonly heard and the tomahawk and -scalping-knife were in constant use. Yellow Thunder often passes by the -grave of a great Indian chief, and thinks about that hero's bravery in -battle. This grave is reverently marked and carefully fenced in. The boy -wishes he had a chance to leave such a memory. - -At the head of the grave there is a stick with the figure of a wolf -carved upon it. It is the symbol, or "totem" of the chief's tribe. Below -the wolf there are many strokes of red paint, which Yellow Thunder likes -to count, for each stroke tells of a scalp taken in warfare. - -Not many miles up the river above Yellow Thunder's home, beavers are -hunted. Black Cloud likes to catch them, because their flesh is good to -eat, and the skin is covered with fine fur. Last winter he allowed his -son to go with himself and a party of men to hunt for this clever little -creature. - -Yellow Thunder believes that the beavers were once people and able to -speak like himself. But they were too wise, so the Great Spirit took -away this power and changed them into these animals. - -I wonder if you have ever seen a beaver's house. He usually makes it of -the young wood of birch or pine trees, and builds it a short way out in -the river, so that it is surrounded by water. He shows a great deal of -skill in making his home. It has a roof shaped like a dome. It reaches -three or four feet above the surface of the water. - -There are generally only two young beavers in the family. The first year -they live with their parents. The second year they have a room built -next to the main house for their special use. By this time they are old -enough to help their father and mother get food. They eat great -quantities of roots and wood, but they like the wood of the birch and -poplar trees best of all. - -When the young beavers are two years old, they leave their old home, and -choose a new place in which to build houses for themselves. Once in a -great while, hunters find beavers that the Indians call "old bachelors." -This is because they live alone, build no houses, but make their homes -in holes they find, or dig out for themselves. - -The beaver always makes holes in the banks of the river near his house. -The entrance to such a hole is below the surface of the water, so that -if the beaver is attacked in his house, he can flee for safety to his -hiding-place in the bank. - -Now let us return to Yellow Thunder and his beaver hunt. It was a bitter -cold day and the river was frozen over in some places, but that would be -so much the better if the hunters hoped to secure their game. They -journeyed by the riverside for several miles. There was a heavy fall of -snow, but they moved along quickly with the help of their snowshoes, -till one of the men whispered: "I see it. Stop!" - -Sure enough! A few feet away from them and from the bank rose the roof -of a dam above the ice. One of the men tried the ice and found it was -thick enough to bear them. - -Yellow Thunder was told to remain where he was on the bank, while the -rest of the party took heavy tools in their hands and went over to the -beavers' house. They quickly destroyed it. But the beavers? What had -become of them? They did not stay in their house to have it broken down -over their heads. They were too wise. When the first alarm was given, -they hurried through the water, under the icy covering of the river, to -a hiding-place in the bank. They had made it long ago to be ready in -case of danger. - -Would the Indians succeed in finding them? Remember that nothing could -be seen to show where the beavers had gone. The hunters crept along the -ice on the edges of the river, and kept striking it with their mallets. -If they should hear a hollow sound as they struck the ice, they would -know they had discovered the beavers' hiding-place. - -Ah! sure enough! It is Yellow Thunder himself who says: "Quick, father, -come here; I have found it. I know this is a hole because of the noise -the water makes underneath. Beavers are breathing there, or it would not -move so quickly." - -Black Cloud hurries to the spot and the ice is cracked in an instant. -Yes, his son is right. A family of beavers is inside the hole. They must -be taken quickly, or they will escape. There is but one way to do it. -The hunter must reach his hands into the hole and pull the animals out. -Their teeth are very sharp, and they will do their best to bite him, but -Black Cloud does not think of that. He is quickly at work and pulls out -one after another. - -There are four beavers in all,--two old ones and their young about two -years of age. They are soon killed and ready to be skinned. How -beautiful and glossy the fur is! It is at its very best in midwinter. - -This has been a fine day's sport, and Black Cloud has received only one -bad bite in his wrist. It must cause him a good deal of pain, yet he -does not show that he feels any. He binds up his wrist, and nothing is -said about it. - -[Illustration: "HIS WIFE IS STANDING IN THE DOOR OF THE WIGWAM."] - -When they reach home Yellow Thunder's mamma will take the tails of the -beavers and put them in the pot to boil. The Indians think they are a -great delicacy. They will make a feast, to which Black Cloud has gone to -invite his friends. - -His wife is standing in the door of the wigwam, waiting for the return -of her husband and son. She has dressed herself with great care to-day, -and has a really beautiful costume. Just imagine your mamma in a dress -like hers. She wears long leggings of red cloth reaching from above her -knees down over her moccasins. They are worked with beads around the -edges. - -A long time ago the Indian women made their clothing of deerskins and -embroidered them with porcupine quills, but nowadays they buy cloth and -beads of the white traders in exchange for furs. - -Over the woman's leggings a long blue skirt reaches from her waist -nearly to the ground. This, also, is embroidered with beads in a flower -pattern. And last, but not least, she wears a bright calico overdress -which reaches from her throat to a short distance below her waist, is -also beaded, and is gathered in at the belt. - -I must not forget to mention her glass necklace, large silver earrings, -and the shoulder ornaments of woven grass and beadwork. - -She is a graceful woman, and it is pleasant to look at her with the -sunset light upon her black hair and eyes. - -When her little boy was six years old he was very sick. His cheeks -burned with fever. He could not lift his head from the mat on which he -lay. His dear mamma scarcely left his side through the long hours of the -day. She tried to soothe him with low, sweet songs, but it was in vain. -The fever grew stronger and fiercer. Black Cloud came home at night. -Looking at his little son, he said, "The medicine-man must come. He will -cure him." - -The medicine-man was at once sent for. He is a very important person -among the Indians. He is considered very wise. He is thought to have -wonderful dreams and to get instruction from the Great Spirit. The red -people think he can cure sickness, unless it is the will of the Great -Spirit for the patient to die. - -The medicine-man always carries a bag of charms to help him in making -his cures. I do not doubt you would laugh at the collection in the bag, -if you had a chance to peep in, but no good Indian has a thought of -doing such a thing. It is believed to be holy, and nothing inside should -be looked upon except as the medicine-man draws it out to work his -cures. - -There are medicines, the carved figures of different animals, the bones -of others, and I don't know how many other queer things. - -Poor little Yellow Thunder looked up with delight as the great man -entered the hut. He believed that he would soon be well and ready to -work and play once more. - -The medicine-man ordered first that a dog be sacrificed. Next, that the -family prepare a great feast for themselves. These things would help to -satisfy the Great Spirit and turn away his anger. But this was not all. -He took out a rattle from his bag. It was made of the dried hoofs of -deer fastened to a stick. He began to sing, beating time with his -rattle, and striking himself violent blows. The singing grew louder and -louder. The rattle made a fearful din. - -How did our poor sick cousin stand it? I'm sure I can't tell. The little -fellow lay with closed eyes and hardly moved. This queer doctor at -length stopped his song and got ready to go away. He told Yellow -Thunder's papa that his son would be sure to get well. And you know -already from my story that our red cousin did get over his sickness, and -grew to be a big, strong boy. Whether the treatment he got was any help, -or whether Mother Nature did all the work, I leave you to decide for -yourselves. I have my own opinion in the matter. - -Yellow Thunder is very fond of music. I wonder what he would think of a -church organ or grand piano. His own instruments are very simple. He -made them himself. He has a tambourine on which he often plays in the -evening while other children dance. He cut a section of wood from a -hollow tree and stretched a skin over it, and his instrument was made. - -He also has a flute. It was a little more work for the red boy to make -this. He carved two pieces of cedar in the shape of half cylinders, and -fastened them together with fish glue. He next hunted about in the woods -for a snake. After he had found one and killed it, he took off the skin -and stretched it over the wood. Eight holes were then made in the -instrument, as well as a mouthpiece like that of a flageolet. - -When Yellow Thunder blows upon this flute, it makes soft and sweet -music. It lay by his side when he was sick with the fever, and as soon -as he was strong enough to sit up, he amused himself by playing some -simple tunes his mamma had taught him. - -Our little friend is very fond of dancing. His people have so many -dances that I shall have to tell you about some of them. - -They believe the Great Spirit gave them the gift of dancing. They have a -Dance for the Dead, a Medicine Dance, the War-dance, the Dance of -Honour, and I don't know how many others. In some of them only men take -part, and they have special costumes, while in others there are none but -women. It seems as though there were always something happening among -the Indians to give them a good reason to dance. - -The War-dance is only performed in the evening and always on some -important occasion. - -Fifteen or twenty men are usually chosen, one of whom must be the -leader. All appear in costume and wear knee rattles of deer's hoofs. -When the time draws near, the people gather in the council-house and -wait quietly for the dancers to arrive. A keeper-of-the-faith rises and -makes a short speech on the meaning of the dance. Hark! The war-whoop -sounds outside! It is heard again, and still again. The band is drawing -near. Ah! here they come at last. - -To our eyes they look hideous in their war-paint and feathers, but to -the crowd of eager Indians who are waiting, they appear very fair, -indeed. - -They march in and form a circle. The war-whoop is sounded again by the -leader, and answered by the rest of the dancers. At a given sign, the -singers commence the war-song, the drums beat, and the dancers begin to -move. They come down on their heels again and again with the greatest -force, keeping time to the beating of the drums. The knee rattles make -noise enough of themselves. The din is fearful. - -The dancers change their positions continually. At the same moment you -will see some of them with their arms raised as though to attack, others -in the act of drawing the bow, others again appear to be throwing the -tomahawk, or striking with the war-club. Every position possible in -battle is taken. - -Each one is full of the excitement of the moment. The wild music and -dancing last for about two minutes. For the next two minutes the dancers -walk around in a circle to the slow beating of the drums. Then there is -another war-whoop, which is followed by another dance and song. - -The dance is often stopped by a tap upon the ground by one of the -audience. He wishes to make a short speech. It, maybe, is a funny one to -make everybody laugh. Or perhaps the speaker wishes to inspire the -people to nobler lives or to greater love for their race. He can say -anything he chooses, on condition that at the end of the speech he makes -a present to one of the dancers. This speech gives the dancers a chance -to rest, and at the same time keeps the people interested. - -The evening is full of entertainment, and passes only too quickly. I'm -afraid, however, if you were present you would be more frightened than -amused by such wild music and motions. - -Another strange dance which is performed among Yellow Thunder's people -is called the Dance for the Dead. Only women take part in it. It is -generally given every spring and fall, in honour of those of the tribe -who have died. The Indians believe that at these times their dead -friends come back and join in the dance. - -The music is sad, and the movements of the dancers are slow and -mournful. This strange dance is kept up from dusk till the early -morning. It is believed that the dead friends who have been present must -then go back to the happy hunting-grounds. - -I haven't said very much as yet about our red cousin's playmates and -sports. They have many good times together. They have a great number of -games and many matches of strength and quickness. - -Yellow Thunder loves his ball game as much as you boys love baseball. He -and his friends often prepare for a game by a special diet and training -for days beforehand. Crowds gather from neighbouring tribes and villages -to see the sport. Those who take part wear no clothing except a -waist-cloth. The ball is small and is made of deerskin. - -A large open field is chosen, and two gates are made on opposite sides -of it. Each gate is made by setting two poles three rods apart. Six or -eight boys play on a side and own one of the gates. The game is won by -the side which first carries the ball through its own gate a certain -number of times. The white men learned this game from the Indians, and -it is a great favourite with them in some parts of the country, -especially in Canada. It is now called "lacrosse," but its name in the -language of the Iroquois Indians was O-ta-da-jish-qua-age. - -Black Cloud has as much interest as Yellow Thunder in the game, and -often takes part in it with his friends. You can hardly believe how -excited these red men get when they are preparing for a set game of -ball. - -The javelin game is another of the boy's favourites. It is quite simple, -and yet one needs to be very skilful. Rings about eight inches across, -and javelins five or six feet long are needed in playing it. While a -ring is set rolling upon the ground by one person, a player on the other -side throws the javelin and tries to hit it. If he succeed, the ring is -set up as a target, and each one on the opposite side must throw a -javelin and try to hit it. If he fail, he loses his javelin. Victory -belongs to the side which wins the most javelins. - -The favourite game in winter is that of snow snakes. The snakes are made -of hickory. They are from five to seven feet long. The head of the -snake is round and pointed with lead. It is about an inch wide and -slightly turned up. The snake is made so that it tapers toward the tail, -which is only about half an inch wide. - -Yellow Thunder has practised so much that he can throw his snake with -great skill. It skims along the snow crust like an arrow. He has won -many a game this winter and his father is very proud of him, because it -takes a great deal of strength and training to be a good player. - -There are many other games played by the Indian men and boys, but I -shall have to tell you about them some other time. - -I hear one of my little friends say: "I wonder if my red cousin has any -holidays. He certainly cannot understand the glorious Fourth, and I -don't believe he ever heard of Christmas. How does he get along?" - -Why, my dear children, I can't stop to tell you of all the feasts and -festivals to which the boy is invited. On every possible occasion a -feast is given by some one in the village. For instance, if the men are -very successful in one of their hunts, and come home laden down with a -good supply of deer, raccoon, or bear, some one of them prepares a -feast. - -How you would laugh to see them gathering at a party. Each one carries -his own wooden bowl and plate, for that is the custom. I mean that each -_man_ does this, for the women are not expected to sit down. They only -stand around and laugh at the bright sayings they hear. They must not -even join in the conversation. They seem to think that they are having a -good time, however, and when the feast is over go back to their own -wigwams, repeating to each other the good things they have heard. The -men remain to smoke and tell more stories. - -Sometimes a feast is prepared on purpose for the young people. At such -a time some one who is much older than themselves makes a speech. He -encourages his young friends to be nobler, braver, and better than ever -before. It seems as though Yellow Thunder could never forget the good -words he has heard at these feasts. Whenever he feels like showing pain -or being ill-tempered, he recollects them, and they help to keep him -calm. - -Each season of the year has its special festival. The longest of all is -the new year jubilee, which lasts seven days. It takes place in the -middle of the winter, about the first of February. Several days before -the beginning of the celebration, our little cousin gathers with his -people in the council-hall. They must confess their sins to each other -before the new year opens. Yellow Thunder thinks over everything which -he has done, or not done as he ought, during the past year. He does not -wish to forget anything. - -When the great day arrives, two keepers-of-the-faith come to his home -early in the morning. It is their duty to go to every other wigwam, too. -They are dressed up in such a way that Yellow Thunder cannot tell who -they are. They wear bear or buffalo skins wrapped around their bodies, -and fastened about their heads with wreaths of corn husks. They also -wear wreaths of corn husks around their arms and ankles. Their faces are -painted in all sorts of queer ways. They carry corn pounders in their -hands. - -As they enter the hut, they bow to the family, and one of them strikes -the ground with his corn pounder. When every one is silent, he makes a -speech, urging them to clean their house, put everything in order, and -prepare for the festivities of the next few days. If any one in the -family should be taken sick and die, he urges them not to mourn till the -ceremonies which the Great Spirit has commanded are over. You can see -from this that the Indian's religion is carried into everything he does. - -After a song of thanksgiving, the keepers-of-the-faith leave Yellow -Thunder's home and pass on to the next one. In the afternoon they come -back again, and urge the family to give thanks to the Great Spirit for -the return of the season. - -The little boy is most excited on this first day of the festival by the -strangling of the White Dog. It must be spotless, if possible. White is -the emblem of purity and faith. A white deer or squirrel, or any other -animal that is pure white, is thought to be sacred to the Great Spirit. - -The dog, which has been carefully kept for this purpose, is killed with -the greatest care. Otherwise it would not be a fitting sacrifice. Not a -drop of blood must be shed. Not a bone must be broken. When it is quite -dead, it is trimmed with ribbons and feathers, and spotted in different -places with dabs of red paint. Then it is hung up by its neck on a pole. -It must stay there till the fifth day. At that time it will be taken -down to be burned. - -On the second day, Yellow Thunder is dressed up in his very best, and -goes out with his father and mother to make calls on his neighbours. The -keepers-of-the-faith come to his house three times during the day. They -are now dressed up as warriors with all their war-paint and feathers. -One of them stirs up the ashes in the fireplace and sprinkles them -about. As he does this, he makes a speech, thanking the Great Spirit -that the family, as well as himself, have been allowed to live another -year to take part in the festival. There is another song of thanksgiving -and they go away. - -On the third and fourth days small dancing parties go from home to -home. One party will perform the war-dance, another the feather-dance, -still another the fish-dance, and so on. This year Yellow Thunder's -father let him join a party of boys to give the war-dance. They had -great fun dressing up as warriors and decking themselves with paint and -feathers. They went from home to home till they had danced in every hut -in the village. They were tired enough to sleep soundly when night came. - -[Illustration: "THEY . . . DANCED IN EVERY HUT IN THE VILLAGE."] - -I must tell you of some more sport they had during the festival. Some of -the boys dressed in rags and paint, put on false faces and formed a -"thieving party," as it was called. They went about collecting things -for a feast. An old woman carrying a large basket went with them. If the -family they visited made them presents, they handed them to the old -woman and gave a dance in return for the kindness. But if no presents -were given, they took anything they could seize without being seen. If -they were discovered, they gave them up, but if not, it was considered -fair for them to carry the things away for their feast. - -Yellow Thunder had great fun hiding the stolen articles in his clothing. -He was not once caught. - -Every night was given up to dancing and other entertainments. Our Indian -cousin got time for a game of snow snakes nearly every day. - -On the morning of the fifth day the White Dog was burned. A procession -was formed, the men marching in Indian file. Listen! A great sound is -heard. It is something like the war-whoop. It is the signal to start. -The dead dog is carried to the altar on a bark litter in front of the -procession. The sacrifice is laid upon the altar. The fire is kindled. -As the flames rise, a prayer is made to the Great Spirit for all his -good gifts to the Indians. The trees and the bushes, the sun and the -winds, the moon and the stars,--none are forgotten that have helped to -make the world better to live in. - -As the sacrifice burns upon the altar, Yellow Thunder listens to the -long prayer with reverence. He believes that the dog's soul is now -rising to the Great Spirit. It will be a proof to Him of the faith of -His people, for the day itself is the day of faith and trust. - -During the rest of the festival there is more dancing and more feasting, -while favourite games are played by old and young. - -"Oh, what a good time it is," thinks Yellow Thunder; "how happy we all -should be that the new year has come." And what a tired boy sleeps on -Yellow Thunder's mat when the seven days of this glorious time are over. -The Fourth of July celebration is slight indeed compared with it. - -Yellow Thunder begins already to look forward to the first festival of -the springtime. It is called by the Indians "Thanks to the Maple." I -don't dare to give it to you in their own language. You would only scowl -and say, "Oh, dear! what's the use? I can't pronounce those long words, -and I will not try." - -Just as soon as the first warm days arrive, the red boy's eyes begin to -watch the maple-trees. He wishes to be the first one to discover that -the sap has started and is beginning to flow. Then hurrah for a holiday -for old and young! Thanks must be given to the tree that gives so much -sweetness to boys and girls. The Great Spirit must be thanked, also, for -he gave the maple to the poor Indian. - -There must be more feasting and story-telling, more games and dancing. -Tobacco must be burned as an offering to the Great Spirit, and prayers -must be said. The great feather dance will be the best thing of all. It -is very graceful and beautiful, and the band of dancers will wear -costumes which belong only to this dance. - -You certainly cannot wonder that Yellow Thunder enjoys this festival. I -don't doubt you would like to be there, also, as well as at the green -corn feast, and many others. - -At these times your red cousin's heart is full of gladness and gratitude -for the great gifts the Great Spirit has given him. - -It is evening time. Let us creep up softly behind him as he listens to a -legend one of the story-tellers of the tribe is repeating. It is the -tale of the Lone Lightning. - -Once upon a time there was a poor little boy who had no father or -mother. He lived with an uncle who did not love him. This cruel man made -the child do many hard things and did not give him enough to eat. Of -course the child did not grow properly. He was very thin and pitiful to -look upon. After awhile the cruel uncle grew ashamed of the appearance -of the boy. Every one could see that he was ill-treated. - -He said to himself, "I will give the child so much to eat that he will -die. I hate him!" Then he went to his wife and said, "Give the boy -bear's meat, and choose the fat of it for him." - -They kept cramming the child. When they were stuffing the food down his -throat one day, he almost choked. Poor little fellow! There was no one -who cared for him or wished him to live. He knew it only too well. - -The first chance he obtained, he ran away. He did not know where to go, -but wandered around in the forest. Night came. Wild beasts would now -begin to roam about. They would get him and eat him. The little boy was -afraid when he thought of all this. He climbed up in a tree as far as he -dared, and went to sleep in a fork of the branches. He had a wonderful -dream. It was an omen given to him by the spirits. - -It seemed as though some one appeared to him from out of the sky. He -spoke to the orphan, and said, "Poor child, I know all about your hard -life and your cruel uncle. Come with me." - -The boy awoke instantly. There was his guide. He began to follow him. -Higher and higher he rose up in the air till they were both in the upper -sky. Then his guide placed twelve arrows in his hands and told him that -there were many bad manitos (spirits) in the northern sky. He must go -forth and try to shoot them. - -He did as he was told. He travelled toward the north and shot one arrow -after another, vainly trying to kill the manitos. He now had only one -arrow left. As each one had sped forth from his bow, there had been a -long streak of lightning in the sky. Then all had grown clear again. - -The boy held the last arrow in his hand for a long time and tried again -to discover the manitos. But these beings are very cunning if they -choose, and they can change their forms at any moment. They were afraid -of the boy's arrows, for they had magic powers and had been given him by -a good spirit. If the child aimed them straight, the bad manitos would -be killed. - -At length the boy gained courage and shot his last arrow. He thought it -was aimed at the very heart of the chief of the spirits. But before it -reached him, he had changed himself into a rock. The head of the arrow -pierced this rock and fastened itself within it. - -The manito was enraged. He cried out, "Your arrows are gone now. You -shall be punished for daring to strike at me." As he said these words, -he changed the boy into the Lone Lightning, which is still seen in the -northern sky to this day. - - - =THE END.= - - - - -THE LITTLE COLONEL BOOKS - -(Trade Mark) - - -_By ANNIE FELLOWS JOHNSTON_ - - - _Each 1 vol., large 12mo, cloth, illustrated, per vol._ $1.50 - - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL STORIES= - (Trade Mark) - -Being three "Little Colonel" stories in the Cosy Corner Series, "The -Little Colonel," "Two Little Knights of Kentucky," and "The Giant -Scissors," put into a single volume. - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL'S HOUSE PARTY= - (Trade Mark) - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL'S HOLIDAYS= - (Trade Mark) - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL'S HERO= - (Trade Mark) - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL AT BOARDING SCHOOL= - (Trade Mark) - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL IN ARIZONA= - (Trade Mark) - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL'S CHRISTMAS VACATION= - (Trade Mark) - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL, MAID OF HONOUR= - (Trade Mark) - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL'S KNIGHT COMES RIDING= - (Trade Mark) - - =MARY WARE: THE LITTLE COLONEL'S CHUM= - (Trade Mark) - - _These ten volumes, boxed as a ten-volume set._ $15.00 - - =THE LITTLE COLONEL= - (Trade Mark) - - =TWO LITTLE KNIGHTS OF KENTUCKY= - - =THE GIANT SCISSORS= - - =BIG BROTHER= - - -Special Holiday Editions - - Each one volume, cloth decorative, small quarto, $1.25 - -New plates, handsomely illustrated with eight full-page drawings in -color, and many marginal sketches. - - -=IN THE DESERT OF WAITING:= THE LEGEND OF CAMELBACK MOUNTAIN. - - -=THE THREE WEAVERS:= A FAIRY TALE FOR FATHERS AND MOTHERS AS WELL AS FOR -THEIR DAUGHTERS. - - -=KEEPING TRYST= - - -=THE LEGEND OF THE BLEEDING HEART= - - -=THE RESCUE OF PRINCESS WINSOME:= A FAIRY PLAY FOR OLD AND YOUNG. - - -=THE JESTER'S SWORD= - - - Each one volume, tall 16mo, cloth decorative $0.50 - Paper boards .35 - -There has been a constant demand for publication in separate form of -these six stories, which were originally included in six of the "Little -Colonel" books. - - - -=JOEL: A BOY OF GALILEE:= BY ANNIE FELLOWS JOHNSTON.
