Of the first citizens Of Chicago. that
breezy metropolis on the banks of Lake
Michigan. "When did you hit the

the man from Boston. "'rhe largeneSs

mite personality preclude such action"

"That's so! Well. It's too bad"

and braced himself for the shock that
was to come, and the next instant the
steer, firmly held by the rope, which
had caught one of his hind feet, plung-

up the earth and sod and believing

In an instant he had struggled to his
feet, but instead Of seeking to escape
he turned and faced the enemy with
lowered head, muttering distant thun-
der as he picked up clouds Of dust and
gravel with his forward hoofs and
threw them viciously into the air.
Then he charged, but the horse. obey
ing slight pressure Of the knee, easily
avoided him, dashing past. the infuri-
ated beast so closely that Lisle could
have touched him. and in another mo-
ment the steer was again dragged to
the earth by the suddenly frightened
lasso.
1t was at that instant when the orig
inal pursuer appeared upon the scene.
Another writhing. twisting coil Of rope
darted through the air just as the steer
was struggling to his feet. 1t settled
over the animals horns and head and
seized his throat, and the beast was

'Tain't sense, Is 1t? If you know

tie to all your life, because II you don't
there won't be anything else that is

| was n good woman If every other wo-
man ever born into the world was bad.
and so was my mother and the mother
of every one of that wild set Of fellows
| that'll soon be raising hades around

she's a mother, and she may be bad
after she's a mother, but there amt no
exceptions to the rule that every one OF
'em is good when she's a mother, 30,

THE ARAB IN THE DESERT.
Alongside of Him the European
Looks Ridiculous.

The Arab Of today is one Of the most
fascinating figures to be met with, es-
pecially If you meet him at home. This
Is the opinion Of Mr.. Percy L. Parker,
expressed In an article on Arab Life
in the Desert" In the Harmsworth
Magazine. The GASES are little islands
Of beauty set in a sea Of sand, con-
sisting of a multitude Of palm trees
growing where there Is sufficient wa
ter, for the Arab says that the palm
stands with It's feet In water and its
head in the fires Of Heaven" With
out the palm, the desert, indeed, would
be "uninhabited and uninhabitable."
There are some 800 oases in the Sa-
hara of various sizes. One Of the chief
Is Biskra, which has not less than 160,-
900 palms, and from which we get
large quantities Of our dates. To see
after hours Of weary travelling through
the desert the lovely rich green Of so
many palms In such setting ds
sight as impressive as it is beautiful.
The French Sahara covers 123, 500
square miles and $4,000 Arabs live in it.
In the GASES they build their homes
beneath the palms, which afford much
needed shade from the hot sun. Sun
dried mud bricks are the chief things
used in making these houses. Palm
trees provide any timber needed. The
houses are two stories high. But for
the low doorway one would think they
light Is obtained by openings on the
courtyard, round which the house Is
built. The Arab home Is somewhat Of
a prison for the women, who are rare
ly seen abroad. They take their walks
upon the fiat roofs, which are common
to all Eastern lands. But few Arabs
live in houses. They are great wan
derers. Wherever you travel In AL
geria you are always meeting long
caravans on the move. These Bed
ouins live in tents, which are simply
camel-cloths stretched over boughs.
For the most part they are very poor
and live on the produce Of few sheep
and goats.
But. although poor, the Arab is al
ways picturesque. 1.-THE European be-
side the Arab looks ridiculous. Let
his top hat be ever so shiny, his cloth
ing ever so we'll fitting, his form ever
so straight. he looks at a dfsadvan-
tage beside the spare figure and the
flowing draperies Of the wandering
Bedouin whom he despises. The Arab
is poor without being abased. He Is
sordid without being mercenary. Even
his raggedness has grandeur about
it."
The chief item in the Arab costume
Is white cloak called the burnous,
which covers the whole figure. 1t has
a hood, which protects the head from
the sun. Beneath this there are all
sorts of gorgeous vests and jackets.
The legs are bare, but the feet are
covered with rich red leather shoes,
dyed with the juice of the pomegran-
ate. A group of Arabs is always strik-
ing, but few more remarkable gath
erings will be seen than in the market
place Of Biskra, where hundreds as
semble each day to buy and sell cat
tie, dates and other wares.

"Well, maybe don't, but think do.
Some day. maybe. I'll tell you the story
that makes me think so. Now, tell me
why you said that"
"My father has taught me ever since
I can remember that women are the
curse Of the world, and believe him.
He Is wise concerning everything else.
and he would not instruct me falsely"
An audible grunt was the only reply
that Craig Thompson made, and the
two rode on In silence several rods.
T would like to see q woman" re-
marked Lisle, permitting his train Of
thought to end in spoken sentence

horse up with q jerk. Then he jamme6
his spurs deep into the animals sides
so that 1t snorted and made two OF

The ranchman's face was working In
the strangest fashion, but whether
with an effort to suppress laugh OF
an oath it is impossible to say. At last
more to himself than to the young man
at his side, the Nevadian remarked:
"Any man who will give boy that
sort of fodder to chaw on Is q blamed
scoundrel."
Lisle Maxwell heard the words. HI

son had previously checked his and by
sudden pressure Of one Of bis knees
compelled 1t to turn so that 1t stood di.
rectly across the path Of the other AMI.

and Thompson found himself looking
into the barrel Of "A"
"Take that back, Craig Thompson u
said Lisle in a low tone. but there was
an intense meaning behind the words.
The ranchman had never been nearer
death than at that instant, and he
knew it. But he only smiled. and
there was something in the altered ex.
preston of his face which Nevadians
were not accustomed to see there. All

which ordinarily gave back steely
