people succeed though working at

have been some youthful fancy. He is

quickens your ear. We are continually
walking over good things-better

how many would walk over it. We

CHAPTER TX.
A More Thorough Search.

Dolores, worn with watching and
faint from lack OF food. fell asleep at
the doorway, and slept the whole
night through; the dawning had deep
ened to broad light when she walked.
She bathed her face with cool
water from the well and brushed her
soft hair back. winding II in heavy
coil at the back of her head.
The table was set as she had left 1t
the day before. and when she hung the
kettle over the fire she took the pail
and went out to milk Brindle.
Lodie came up for water; he hesi-
tated as he saw Dolores, but she rose
up bravely to meet him. She did not
speak, but her eyes asked him ques-
tion.
"Ther case were postponed" he
said, slowly. "Ther jedge were put
out consid 'rable. but as t couldn't be
helped he said they'd hev ter wait tell
yer feyther kems."
He did not linger; he dared not
linger when she was watching him.
He could not tell her of the reused
suspicion regarding Johnson's non
appearance. He left a full bucket on
the edge of the well for her.

and ate that she should have

When she had finished she filled
large bottle with rich new milk. and
hung 1t at her side with slender
rope across her shoulders; she knew
that she would have need of both her
hands. Then she closed the door and
went down the path with a firm step.
AS she pushed the rickety gate up
and fastened it with its swinging rope,

wondered what our boys and girls

Over education is like running too far
before you jump-it hinders you from
doing that for which you are running.
Some wise men are advising students
to cut off one OF their four years on
their books and invest it in some prac
tical line OF work. A banker told me

Mine and Tunnel Operated.

with full contingent of miners. Ev-
cry one of them is from this district
and many of them are union men.
During the day many more reported

pany could use to advantage at pres

mate there are not less than IFS men
Quartered at the El Paso mine. The
Federation's estimate places the num-

GERS state that several men quit work
to-day. and that there will be fewer
men at work tomorrow. This state
ment. however, is denied by those in

How ForeknowIedae Mioht Hello.

When a boy l had pet Brahma pull

three pounds weight. One day I en-
tered the hen park and on coming out
could not close the gate. There was
a rubbery-spring of a resistance as
the gate came. within foot of the
post. AS I opened the gate to in
vestigate. my pet pullet ran out yard
and dropped dead. She had run in be-
tween the gate and the building under
the lower hinge. That lesson in ac-
curacy regarding gates and chickens
gave my affections a hard pull II
my pet had been alive and my fathers
hens all dead l would have suffered
less. That was expensive experience
i meyer killed another chicken by
that gate-it made me think, look,
know more and it increased my accur.
acy. Why could not I have learned by
observation what l learned by expen-
sive experience? l could have done so
had l had my observation trained and
l have done so many times since that
event. An old German friend told
me that we stopped growing when we
stopped making mistakes, and must
be growing every day because I am
making mistakes right along, but
there are many kinds of mistakes and
l want to grow by making those which
do not kill pet pullets" If possible
Pennsylvania girl told me she did
not think it necessary to be poor in
order to be happy and I am trying to
see If we cannot learn by the valua-
BILE experiences of others and lessen
the necessity of errors and mistakes
on our part. We should become more
accurate and grow faster than we do
