First Woman in Camp.

Every miner in the camp was ex-
cited and talking about it, Now 1t
took some very impor tant event to
thoroughly arouse all the boys along
the gulch. A row in which only one
man was killed was considered a
very commonplace social event. and
an ordinary lynching did not attract
much attention.
Why was it ?
Why, there was woman in camp
and all was commotion. 1t was the
first great social event in White
Horse Gulch.
The young lady had finished her
dinner and was strolling about the
camp with her uncle, large, fieshy,
jolly old man, who was large stock
holder in one of the principal mines
in the gulch. He had brought his
niece, young lady of 20, on trip
with him for company and also to
show her something of the wild and
rugged West. 1t had been many
month since the boys had seen wo.
man, and hence everybody wanted
to meet her and invite her to par
take of the Inequalities of White
Horse Gulch, for all the latch strings
were out and she would have been
| welcomed to the best the rude noun
| tain cabins afforded.
Now, any woman would have APP
peared handsome. A dried-up old
maid from New England, dieted and
preserved on non-sugared tea for a
quarter of century, would have
been considered handsome and very
lovely, for the mountain boys are
very gallant to women, and old
maids are given a fair show every
time.
The boys were all charmed by the
polite manners and handsome face
of the young lady, but there was a
look of deep sympathy in the eyes of
all when they saw her. at is too
bad" was the prevailing sentiment
of all.
"What a handsome face, pard,"
exclaimed a miner to his friend, "but
how unfortunate ~
Some admired her handsome face,
others her beautiful black hair and
Others her comedy shaped foot, but
all pitied her deformity.
That evening, after the young lady
had retired, the uncle was chatting
with number of the miners, and
his niece, of whom the fond uncle
was very proud, became the topic of
conversation, Finally, one holder
than the rest, said it was pity she
was defOrmed. In tones of sympathy
he told the Uncle how the hearts of
all the miners in White Horse
Gulch had gone out towards him for
her affection.
"Affiiction ~ shouted the enraged
uncle. afflicted Why, she is only
wearing one of those blankety blank
bustles !" And everybody replied
in chorus

Never kiss a young girl If she
doesn't want you to. The main in
gredient that makes kissing endur-
able is the willingness on the part of
the female. If it depends on the
anxiety so much the better. When
girl claws mans hair and
scratches his face like little fool,
drop her at once. She is destitute of
good sense and natural affection. and
the sooner you make love to her Sis
ter the better. AS long as a girl

Gems For Thought.

The remedy for wrongs is to forget
them.
He makes no friend who never
made foe,
Good manners are made up of pet
ty sacrifices.
1t becomes wise man to try ne
gotiation before arms.
The only thing certain about liti-
CATION is its uncertainty.
No time is too short for the wicked
to injure their neighbors.
He only is we'll made man who
has good determination.
To love and to be loved is the
greatest happiness of existence.
He has carried every point, who
has mingled the useful with the
agreeable.
Most of our misfortunes are more
supportable than the comments of
of our friends upon them.
More helpful than all wisdom is
one draught of simple human pity
that will not forsake us.
Censure and criticism never hurt
anybody. If false they cannot harm
you, unless you are wanting in char
acter and, If true they show man
his weak points, and forewarn him
against failure and trouble,
He who is sympathetic has his en-
trance into all hearts, and is the
solver of all human problems. To
him is given dominion where he
thinks to serve ; and the love he
gives without stint, as without cal
culation, he receives back without
measure, as without conditions.
