Q Bars Pride.

Q Bars Pride.
In the stateof North Dakota. I
On the banks of a running stream,
You'll find the noted Q bar ranch
Ono of the finest to be seen.
This Q bar ranch has a noble horse.
With a flowing tail and name,
He weighs about v Thousand pounds,
And Wildair is his name.
Wildair Is of royal blood
From the famous Brilliant strain,
And his colts have already won for him,
Both great and endless fame.
He was born in the state called Illinois,
On N. W. Dunham's farm:
And the first pair Of blacks produced by him
Are broken to work like a charm.
His sire and dam::were recorded full-bloods,
And imported from France to Oaklawn,
And they're registered there in the Perche-
ron books.
As Egalite and Marathon.
His grandsires and dams we must mention:
For there was Brilliant and his mother
Ragout;
Waterloo, Voltaire and Julia,
Philibert and Passe Partout.
His sires were all prize winners,
And that we claim to know,
For they won the sweep-stake prizes,
At a Franc 9 and American show.
And as Q bar saw in the distance
Wildair abreast of the tidal wave,
He has the laugh on the bears and monkeys
Who followed him to his grave.
And now through the name Of this wonder
full horse,
He will and he dares you to try
To look far and near through this Western
state,
And find . horse that is bred more high.
So all Of you who love a horse,
And have owned them in the past,
Don't wait but buy a @ bar team,
Az Wildair colts arelgoing fast.

she said, after they had gone near

timber they can see you from the
ford. BY this time they may have
sent some soldiers up there, and
they will shoot you if you pass that
point
So Forrest dismounted, and &C.

head Of the column, advanced to

JESS AND THE BEAR.
Bruin Saved the Man. but Lost His
Life In the Bargain.

Bruin Saved the Man. but Lost His
Life In the Bargain.
There is Il story connected with the
last bear killed about here which fond
grandpapas often told the children
seated on their knees. 1t appears that
the celebrated Uncle Jess had spent
nll his life as trapper and hunter, and
never mishap had befallen him. But
one night, in his anxiety to shake
coon, he climbed the shell of an old
tree.
AS he began shaking the neighbor-
ing limb the stump to which he was
clinging gave way. and he sank feet
first into the hollow center. All efforts
to escape were impossible, and the
pious hunter had resolved to pass the
remainder of his life in prayer. when
toward night his supplications were in
terrupted. Looking up, he beheld the
eye of bear looking straight down
at him.
Then the animal turned about and
backed down the inside of the stump.
Hardly knowing what to do, Uncle
Jess put up his hands in protection and
grasped the bear. Now it was the
bears turn to be frightened. He
scrambled up again, while the hunter
hung on for his life and was carried
with safety to the top.
Here the bears real trouble began,
for with so heavy a weight it was i'm
possible for him to turn about and
back down, SO he tried it head first,
but that was no easy matter to the
beast, and he fell with a heavy thud
to the ground below and was killed,
while Uncle Jess went home and told
the truthful tale, to be handed down
to his children.-Springfeld Republic

A POPULAR MISTAKE.
The Idea That Professional Me
Have an Easy Time.

The Idea Tint Professional Men
Have an Easy Time.
People who work with their hands,
especially farmers. are apt 10 think
that professional men have an easy
time of it." said a lawyer of this city.
tits an amusing mistake. The farmer
stops at sundown, and the laborer
works ten hours at the outside. The
average professional man works from
II to IA hours day in and day out, all
the year around. Often, at pinch, he
will work from 16 TO 20 hours for sew
fral days iD succession, and he will
work when he is sick or suffering Sc
we're physical pain, something the man
ual toiler wouldn't dream of. OF course
he takes short intervals of rest, like
everybody else. The human engine
isn't capable of absolutely sustained
endeavor for over an hour at a stretch.
Watch a day laborer, who seems to
be plodding along like a machine, and
you'll find that he really rests more
than half the time. He looks at some
well dressed doctor, lawyer, broker or
man of affairs and says to himself:
oh, you doggoned lazy rascal! If you
only had to work like me- The truth
is that the chap he envies is putting an
amount of concentration and continued
energy into his daily toll that would
kill the man who works with his hands
alone in less than a week
Il don't mean this as any reflection
on the laborer, who is also no doubt
doing his level best. l simply mean
that the demands on brain production
are third again as severe as the de-
mands on muscle production For
sheer staying qualities there is nothing
in the world that equals the nervous
high strung, frail looking modern pro-
fessional man."-New Orleans Times
