LESS TH;fH2i-f.

\ man who has made Il study Of wo-
men and their ways remarked the
other day that women are, us Il set,
less frank and truthful than men.
Whatever truth there i III this as
sertion we may be snre it is at least
not innate, but due to the difference
in the requirement OF thetwo sexes and
the consequent difference in their edu.
cation. Men are taught to reveal true
nature from the cradle To the grave.
Men are tau"t that. being human. they
are Suhiect To various passions aIid liza
bic to fall into error which il is not nee,
eS-nry for them to conceal, for il they
dtviate from the straight and narrow
path the world W II quickly forget ana
forgive Women. OF The contrary,
are taught hat if they are not IN
war,ilv statues of decorum, they must
make 1t appear that they are, for the
world is merciesS TO one of their sex
who by word or deed hints that the
smallest tOtteriug on her pedestal. not
to mention even mOIn"ntary dies
cent from it, is possible.
Ia short, women are required to con
ceal their real human selves from all
hehoIGers as absolutely as they con
ccal their lower limbs in the conven
tiOnai tlraperies of femiuinitE, while
men are as free to reveal their real
selves 70 the world as to clothe them

WATERED BY A SPIRIT FORM.
Mystery of Two Little Cottonwoods on the
South Dakota Prairie.

South Dakota Prairie.
The construction crew of western
railroad was at work for some days at
one place near Pierre, S. D., and the
roadmaster in charge planted two tiny
cottonwood shoots i'll the baked soil at
the side of the track which was being
constructed. Nothing was ever known
to grow where they were planted but
the curling buffalo grass and the wiry
bunch grass, which came up with the
moisture Of the melting SHOWS of spring
and soon withered and curled under the
whitening heat of the summer sun, no
moisture coming to refresh the baked
and parched plain on which the little
shoots were planted.
No one ever expected the shoots TO
live, but the roadmaster devoted a great
deal of attention to them while his
work kept him in that vicinity. Shortly
after this the roadmaster was killed i'll
an accident, and the trainmen kept
watch of the two trees TO see how long
they would stand the terrible drought
which was curling all other vegetation
in that part of the world. But they
grew and thrived, and from what source
the roots drew sufficient moisture to
sustain their vigorous growth is one Of
the mysteries. All summer long the air
is veritable breath of the Sahara and
the earth is baked and burned, still new
er leaf droops or curls. The trees
have attained sturdy growth and the
engineers who pass them i'll their night
runs declare that "a spirit form appears
and pours water about them, and the
section men who 90 past the spot i'll the
morning to their work report the soil
about them to show the effects of hay
ing been watered during the night. Last
fall prairie fire burned over the ground,
and everything III its path WIS supposed
to be destroyed, and it was supposed
that the trees had suffered with all else
in its track, but they came through
without injury.
What mysterious something supplies
these trees with the necessary moisture
to keep them growing and fiOuriShiL2
on this baked plain On what protected
them from the rayages of fire when all
else succumbed is left to those who
delye into the mysteries of the hidden
world to solve. The only known fact i'll
regard to them is that they stand ard
