Women Of the Frontier.

Some towns are harder to civiliZe
than others A new town in the Chero-
kee outlet grew to 200 souls without a
woman. This town is now one of the
most thriving and cultured communi-
ties of that territory. But a year
elapsed before a woman dared ven
ture in.
One cay when the stagecoach drew
up the wife of leading saloon keeper
alighted. and Tom announced from be-
hind the bar that night that she had
come to stay. He set up the drinks
to the crowd, but they did not congrat-
ulate him. Instead they met in a gam
bling hall and decided to boycott his
place until he had sent his wife away.
When he learned of it. OF course with
his heart set on the dollar, he told her
to go. She went. Not until that saloon
keeper was shot in midnight brawl
would they allow his wife to return to
him. When they saw how tenderly she
nursed him back TO life and with what
gentleness she spoke to them. their
hearts melted. and the toughest 0w-
boy in the town addressed meeting
one night in this wise:
Boys, we will have to surrender. ]

wicked word. Then. according 10 her
own account. she lay and waited in an
agony Of terror for what was 10 befali

happened. and at last the monotony of
the situation tired her. and she got off
