THE READY LASS0.
How it is the Cowboy Can Hit
Mark Every Time.

"The cowboys Of New Mexico, Tex.
as aud Arizona, are all tkilled in the
use of the lassoS said Louis Edward.
of Santa Fe. Il used to be in the
ranchiDg Inc myself, and once sup
posed could throw a rope as stright
as any man Lying, But that was be-
fore | mixed to any extent with The
Mexicaus. As good as the American
cowboys are they can't hold candle
to a greaser when it comes to the rop.
ing business. They can do things with
hemp that no other mortals can ever
hope to accomplish. As the Austria
liam stands forth pre-eminently in
the throwing of the boomerang, Sc
does the ignorant son Of the land of
God and liberty exceed all other men
in this one accomplishment.
"a Mexican will chase a steer at
full speed and while he guides his
broncho with one hand whirls his rope
with unerring aim with the other, and
it isn't once in thousand times that
the moose will fail to catch just where
the rider meant. A favorite trick OF
theirs is to stick lot of long handled
knives in the ground close together,
within the limits of narrow circle,
aud bet with outsiders that they can
ride psst at racehorse speed and pick
up any one of the knives designated
with a rope. They are good marks
men with the rifle, too, but in this
regard our cowboys are fully their
peers"

Madisonville Hustler: From some

the average school patrons OF Ken

the fact that it is a rare thing that a
patron visits the school, unless it is

sheep field, seem to be a greater at
traction than the school house. Pat

To Get Eggs in Winter.

To get eggs in winter, says Mirror
and Farmer, one must 60 to an extra
expense, and be willing to use every
effort to have the hens under the best
conditions for laying. The food is i'm
portant, but it is not the food alone
that makes the hens lay. Confinement
is rs i. ksome to fowls as to human be-
ings, and whether fed well or not,
they will tail to give good results if
kept shut up in close quarters during
To-. g and tedious winter. Fowls are
naturally full of activity, and delight
ia roaming over the fields in search of
food, which not only affords exercise,
but makes them contented and puts
them in the best possible condition for
laying.
When the snow coyers the ground
the fowls are compelled to remain in
their quarters, because they are not
adapted to locomotion in deep SHOWS,
and the gloomy days aud dark quar-
tiers affect them the same as though
they were prisoners within the WALL
OF building from which there is IL
escape. The hens do not lay becaui
il is not their season of the year TO
reproducing their kind, and becaus'
the conditions are not such as to pro
mote egg production. The question
comes up in regard to the poultr.
houses. As rule they are too small

ment to the French Chamber.
M Chauvin, elected to the French
chamber for the Seine district, abandon
ed the mines at the age of 16. He be-

ton of running his comb and his curl
ing irons through the locks of the pref
test members of the Theatre Francois
Politically, he is revolutionary So
cialist. a speaker at public meetings and
a sworn enemy of the employment bu-
reau. These characteristics commended
him to the suffrage of the electors for
the suburb of Puteaux the Fifth) dis
trict of ST. Denis.
To all who have reproached him with
his too ardent advocacy of the working
man he has replied: "Well, what would
YOU have me do? Because of my ideas
all my patrons leave me, and l must go
into some other business.
Why should he not go into parlia-
ment? His trade makes him contem-
poraneous Figaro, political Figaro
adapted to this fin de steele, such per-
son as Beaumarchais would picture were
he living today. We have seen M.
Chauvin at home in Paris, in his shop in
the Rue DIES Archives, Marais. He was
not aware that perfdious journalist
under the guise Of a client was watch
ing him. Consequently we have been
able to observe him at our ease in the
exercise of his profession when he had
no motive for posing"
He is about "a years old, but looks
hardly 80, tall, slight and almost dis
tingue, with regular features, a straight
nose, a dark complexion, brown hair,
we'll combed and brushed, and small
mustache with the ends pointed. But
the line of his brow and his keen express
sion bespeak latent energy. "Short?
Very well. Quite correct" He wears
white apron, just like Figaro, but not in
a mercenary or servile way, but like
surgeon. No chatter, no gossip. He
keeps this probably for meetings. Assist
ed by two "artists," he operates himself
in his comfortable "salon," hung with
red paper. praised by some, blamed
by others, Drawing the wicked, the butt
of everybody" shaving the bourgeois
and having no appearance of desiring to
cut their throats. Perhaps he will some
day find out that welding the razor is
more profitable than empty honors.
Has he also, like the barber of Seville,
literary and artistic tastes? Many en-
