Women are the real heroes of the
world. Thousands on thousands of them
endure the dragging torture of the ills
peculiar to womankind in the silence of

and torture is written in the drawn
features, in the sallow skin, in the list

on the face.
Unborn modesty seals their lips. They
prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has
made them believe the only hope OF
relief lies in the exposure of examina-

George Bird Grinnell tells, in Forest and Stream, how the coyotes hunt and kill antelopes.
 II went one morning." he says, ito get the horses for the camp. They were nowhere to be seen, so climbed hill from which I expected to see them. Just before I got to the top an old doe antelope came into view, closely fol lowed by a coyote. Both seemed to be going as hard as they could, having their tongues out as if they had come a long way. Suddenly another coyote appeared close to the antelOpe's heels, taking up the chase, while the first coyote left off following, while the first to watch. The antelope ran a long way, always bearing to the left, show ing that she was circllng like dogged rabbit, and would most likely come close to the hill after time. The wolf 1 had first seen trotted off POO or 300 yards and sat down on the prairie again, almost In the line of the ante lope's run.
 "As the antelope approached, the sit- ting coyote crouched close to the ground, raising it's head slowly now and then, crawling along on it's belly a little as if to get directly in the ante lope's path. AS the antelope drew near the crouchlng coyote l saw that she was staggering tired. When she reach ed the concealed coyote, the wolf leap ed at her throat, and down the two went. The wolf that had taken up the chase had been joined by another, and those two mixed in with the antelope and first coyote. When the waving tails and stretching legs had straight ened out and were quieted down the three coyotes were seen eating. their breakfast" ~- '.f i:"

PROOF OF SINCERITY.
How An Army Officer Stood the Supreme
 Test of Belief In Fatalism.

HOW An Army OTucer StOOQ the supreme
 Test of Belief In Fatalism.
 In the days of the ''old army" on the frontier, when military posts were sometimes hundreds of miles from any civilized place, there was little to do ill the way of amusement in the winter time when the post was snowbound, and it was then that the reputation the army has for card playing and drinking was gained. And it is true that great deal of both was done at that time.
 It was in these days that an event transpired that showed that the prin- cipal actor had the courage of his con- victions, and that he was most certainly born under lucky star. It was after a very ''wet" stag dinner party, and all had partaken most freely of the wine, and, strange as it may seem, the subject that came up for discussion was the Mohammedan religion. The Mussul- mans believe in fate. To them a mans fate is written above, and the time of his death is set, and nothing can ad- vance 1t. We'll, this belief had been dis OUSoCO 4AO p4Oo anu cons had been gone over at length, till one officer wanted to know of what use was reason if every one was born with a tag of destiny attached. One officer finally arose and said there was no use of discussing the matter any further. The only way was to make a practical test of the question, and he would give himself as a subject. Could a man willfully dispose of his life when the fatal moment had been chosen at his birth from above?
 He could get no one to try the experi- ment on him. Finally a wager was made.
 "Who will pay you if I lose?" said the subject as he drew his pistol and showed that it was loaded. He placed the pistol against his temple and pulled the trigger. The pistol missed fire.
 "A joke" yelled the crowd.
 The fatalist smiled, and, recocking the pistol, aimed it with steady hand at the clock on the wall He fired, and the bullet crashed through the center of the dial.
 Apologize to me now," he said. ''I have won the bet. always believed in fate. ."-Cincinnati Enquirer.

WARMTH FOR COMFORT.

An old cat loves sunny corner and a long nap, and this is natural and wise. The genial warmth of the sun Iulls to rest. and while asleep, it may be curative to the cats few ailments. Soreness and stiffness come upon us suddenly and put the machinery of the body out of gear. SI. Jacobs Oil goes suddenly to work upon the trouble, and with its warmth, like warmth to the old cat, it lulls the pain to sleep, drives out the cold, softens the stIffened muscles, lubncates the machinery, and in a short time puts the whole body in good working order. Sore ness and stiffness are not much to cure by the use of Si. Jacobs Oil. but, if neglected |. they take the form of rheumatism, which gives a great deal more pain.

FISH AS FOOD.
The Dark Is Better Than the White For
 an Active Person.

The Dark Is Better Than the White For
 an Active Person.
 Mrs S T. Rorer, in The Ladies' Home Journal, contends that there has not been a sufficiently accurate analysis upon which to base any table regarding the chemical composition of fish at all reliable. "The albuminoid matter in white fish, as cod, haddock and halibut, is ill about the same proportion as in beef and mutton. They contain, how ever, more phosphorus-the active fish, such as trout and pickerel, containing a still greater amount, due no doubt to their activity. The amount of carbon depends largely upon the amount of fat they contain. The whitefish are, there fore, deficient in carbon. If you should ask an intelligent cook what vegetable to serve with a boiled white fish she would answer quickly, potatoes, as they supply the wanting carbohydrates.
 "There are other kinds of fish, how ever, such as salmon, catfish and stur- geon, that are quite we'll supplied with carbohydrates, in consequence of which they are not so easily digested as the white fish. The more oil they have dis persed through the body, the more diff cult the digestion. In the white fish the fat is held in the liver; in the dark fish it is dispersed through the entire flesh. From this fact we learn that dark fish make a much better diet for the active man. Many authorities affirm that the more active fish, as we'll as the more active animals, give better muscle mak- ing food than their more indolent rela- tiOnS '

CHEAP IRRIGATION.

The Hercules Gas Engine Works of San Francisco, Cal, the largest builders of gas, gasoline and oil engines on the Coast, are making extensive preparations for the seasons business.
 Trey are filling several orders for large irrigating plants and as this line of their bu,iness increases each season, it is safe to say the farmers throughout the State are ap- preciating he advantages of irrigation with water pumped by this cheap power.
 The Hercules Works are at present build ing an 80 H. P. engine for Geo. F. Packer, Colusa, which will raise 6000 gallons per minute from the river and distribute it over his land. This will be the largest gasoline pumping plant in existence.
