of the pepper box over herfood he sprang
an old gag on her:

One of the chief sports If the cowboys
Is snatching sombrero from the ground
on horse running at full speed. This
Is done by many. They have become ex-
perts in the use of a 6-shooter (revolver}
and a cowboy on the plains is seldom
seen without one or more, often two
buckled to his waist. 1t becomes a
weapon offensive and defensive. Some
times a roped buu becomes SO furious
that the cowboy is compelled to shoot
him. Usually the cattle ON the plains
are not dangerous. They will seldom
attack man on horseback unless they
have been roped. If Il man was on foot,
herd would run over him trying to find
out what he was a COW or bull is dan
gerous when roped. 1t is not much of a
trick to throw a lasso and catch a COW,
but the skill, courage and strength comes
after the COW has been lassoed.-Cor.

Sleep Is a greater mystery than In

wonderful that we sleep so well than
that we are occasionally wakeful- We
hear more OF sleepiessness than our

fact that in scarcely any OF the older
recognized textbooks of practice OF
physic is there any formal notice OF

especially in those devoted TO treat

ccive considerable attention And ev-
cry now and again the slceplessness OF
a great man in the world OF science or
in that Of politics reminds us that emf

which seldom affect the poor man. II
Is probable that this evil Of wakeful-
ness is more common than ii used to-
be. The excitemcnts. and especially
the worries. of life multiply. Many OF
the arrangements Of society are OF a
nature to drive away sleep. Even the

many as to rob them of one of the

managed 10 hide his money, about three
hundred and fifty dollars, in his boots,
but. not being used TO evading the
truth. he answered frankly that he

Ben pat his hand down into his boot
