Is this the young and tender girl
Who smiles between her tears?
She strikes me as termagant
OF none too tender years.
She raves, she RACES and she scolds,
Her brow is creased with frowns,
She screeches at me with her winds,
She chills me and she browns.
This ''smile and tear" fraud is playet

You are sodden tramp that reels
DeliTious with her jag.

Plans for srrigatipk Rch Bench
Lands In Wyom'ng by Means of
Water Now Wasted.

water Now Wasted
Investigations by the United States
geological survey are now in prog
ress in northern Wyoming with a
view to extending the use of the
availa able water supply in thai portion
of the state. Jeremiah Aher1, an en-
gineer of the geological survey, is in
charge of the work. Particular atten-
ton is directed to the eastern slope
of the Bighorn mountains, where i'm
portant storage problems on the
headwaters of the Sulphur. Powder
and Tongue rivers await soIuton.
These streams, after leaving the
mountains, flow through fertile
bench and valley lands, which, with
proper irrigation, would be valuable
for agricultural development. The
rainfall of that region is light during
the time water is needed for irriga-
ton, but the winter Gnows on the
mountain slopes are unusually heavy
and furnish large quantities of water
to the streams. The source of supply
at present is an extremely unsaiis-
factory one, for the warm rains of
spring melt the snow rapidly and p'O-
duce disastrous floods, in which large
quantities of water pass through The
streams unused.
There are, however, a number of
lakes in the region, favorably stunt
ed to be used for storage. One of
these is Lake de Smet, whose wa5er
surface is said to be 30 feet below he
lowest part of its rim. In this lake it
is proposed TO store part of the head
waters of the Powder river. thus saw
ing a large body of water for irriga-
tion which is now entirely wasted.
Mr.. Ahern has been engaged during
the present summer in gauging the
flow of the streams on the eastern
slope of the Bighorn mountains and
in Investigating the possibilities and
probable cost of water storage in the
region,

The Blood.

The blood is life. We derive from the blood
hfe, power, beauty and reason, as the doc
tors have been saying from time immemo-
rial. A healthy body, fresh appearances,
and generally all the abilities we possess
depend on that source OF life. 1t is, there
fore, the duty Of every sensible man to
keep the blood as pure and normal as pos
slble. Nature, in its infinite wisdom, has
given us a thermometer indicating the state
OF the blood, which appeals to our reason
by giving notice of its impurity Small erup-
tions OF the skin, to which we scarcely pay
any attention, headache, ringing noises in
the ears, lassitude, sleeplessness, are gem
orally a sign that the blood is not in nor
NAL state, but is filled with noxious sub
stances. These symptoms deserve our full
attention. If more attention were paid to
these symptoms and steps taken to remove
them, then many illnesses from which we
suffer would become unknown, and the hui
man body would become stronger and health
ier. Attention, therefore, should be paid
to those warning signs, and the blood can
be purified and poisonous substances re-
moved from it by the use of DR.. August
Koenig's Hamburg Drops, discovered more
than 60 years ago.
