Calamity James Adventures.

Bushels of chills and fever literature
have been written about Calamity Jane "
said Cassius Reynolds, a Wyoming ranch
owner, in the Palmer house, "but a true
story of her has never been given to the
world. These stories reflected upon her
character, when, as matter of fact, she
was good and brave woman. saw her
at Rock Springs, wy, where she is now
living. Her name is Jane Steers. She
was the best known person in the west in
the 70's She carried military messages
for Custer in the Big Horn country, where
the savages were 50 thick that n white
man dared not enter the basin. She dressed
like man, always wearing u buckslin
suit, She could ride any horse that ever
bucked and never heard of the word fear
After Gen. Custer was killed she went to
the Black Hills and was the first white
woman to enter Deadwood When wild
Bill was dying she tenderly nursed him.
When the Indians and outlaws were drv-
en- away from the Black Hills she drifted
from place to place and finally located at

Fruit at Meals.

As rule fruit dessert in the evening
and after a mixed meal ought only to be
lightly INDUCED in, for the average stomach
will but rarely tolerate heavy influx of
such cold and usually watery aliment as
fruit. This is not the case if the fruit is
eaten before or between the meal courses
A ripe melon eaten with salt or butter, be
fore or Immediately after the soup, can be
freely INDUCED in, Experience teaches us
that stewed or raw fruit may be largely
taken between the courses. In many parts
of the continent this custom prevails; the
Germans eat stewed fruit with many meats
and in warmer climes such fruits as grapes
plums, figs, melons and sweet lemons are
habitually eaten with all kinds of Dishes
or as palate refreshers between the courses
