 and swayed unsteadilj- from side to side. He thought of the world

 recov'ered from his bewilderment he saw the true condition of things. 



Looking about him he saw a river toward the west along which 

 grew arrow bushes. From these he cut four magic sticks; placing 

 his hand on these he blew cigarette smoke over them, whereupon 

 magic power shone forth from between his lingers. He was much 

 pleased with this and laughed softly to himself. He rubbed his magic 

 bag of buckskin four times with each of the four sticks and then put 

 them in and tied it. He then arose and stamped down all mortal 

 magicians and even ground his own house into the earth. He stamped 

 upon the orator, the warrior, the industrious, and the provident 

 woman, and crushed them down. Then he sank beneath the surface 

 of the earth. He reappeared in the east and made from the point of
