After the thermometer had been
down to 81 below, a warm wave
"chinook"-was waited across the coun-
try Sunday afternoon, bringing with it
JOY aud peace to the suffering populace.
Stockmen have this week witnessed
the melting of the SHOWS and the conse
Quent filling of the buffalo wailows and
draws with much n, eded water. It is
safe to say that the worst is over, but
the equal of the late ''spell" has not
been e e in this state in ten years.
Cattle and sheep men can 0 bring to
figure on their losses.
Rawlins. Wyo., reports to the Dem
yer Stockman: ''Most of the stockmen
in this section are feeding hay to their
cattle n sheep and there are no loss
es up to date. Hay is disappearing at
a rapid rate, however, and warm wealth.
CT cannot come too soon to please the
stockmen There are reports of a few
lost herds Of sheep and a few lunches
of cattle in the bills which cannot be
reached, but nothing definite IS known
o' the situation beyond the Immediate
ncighborhood."

She stumped Gladstone.

The story is told that at Hawartlen one
morning little Dorothy Drew refused to
get up. When all other means had failed
to coax her out Of bed, Mr.. Gladstone was
called.
why won't you get up, my childf" he
asked.
"Why, grandfather, didn't you tell me
to do what the Bible saysf' asked Dorothy.
Eyes, certainly"
"Well, it disapprovcs Of early rising;
says It's waste of time.
Mr.. Gladstone knew his Bible better
than most men, but he was not equal to
Dorothy. For once in his life he was non
plused.
"You listen, then" went on Dorothy,
in reply to his exclamation of astonish-
ment, and, turning up her Bible, she read
the second verse Of the one hundred and
twenty seventh psalm, laying great en-
phasis on the first words, ut Is vain for
you to rise up early"
