FISTS VERSUS
DIRK K NIFE.
I'm Exciting Episode Of Lead
ollie In the Early
ID Us.

Dan Whipple, who died last winter
In Prescott, Ariz., was considered the
best night marshal that Leadville ever
had in the days when Leadville was
dangerous to live in.
On one occasion in those bygone
days Whipple went into Sam TuthilI's
Angel Gabriel saloon. Things were
quiet, the only other customer being Il
big mine timherman named Larry
Coffey lie bore hard name as a trou-
BILE hunter when III his cups, and on
this night he was loaded to the muz-
zle He nodded to Whipple, who did
not notice him.
Shortly after Il tenderfoOt who had
just struck Leadville with Il mule
train entered and called for a drink.
Coffey walked over to him and said:
Dance, SOM And out came both of
Coffey's guns at the same time. and
two bullets went through the floor
about two inches from the tenderfoot's
heels. Go right ahead and dance it
some. Willie"
The poor little chaps eyes were al
most popping out of his head, and it
didn't take him two seconds to begin
gyrating around in an attempt to
dance.
Coney reared with the pure joy of
the fun he was having and after three
or four minutes he had bored twelve
holes in the saloon floor. the tender
foot hopping up and down frantically
meanwhile. Then CoGey put his guns
down onhthe bar in order TO get at his
cartridge belt to reload Whipple
slipped between Coffey and the bar
quick as a flash of light. and the night
marshal stuck his face within two
inches of Coffey's ragged red beard.
"Ombrey,'' said Dan to Cofrey, this
yere is peaceable camp, and it's 4
camp that's free to all hands that be-
have themselves. No man has got to
dance anywhere in this camp after the
sun goes down onless he wants to
dance, and gun plays don't go while
I'm around nohow. You've made your
little gun play on this tenderfoot yere
because, havin' lot more rum under
your belt than any man like you is go
in to carry on my beat, you think
you're sort of putin it on me. Now

you're goin' to mosey to your shack,

Coffey leaped to one side and ripped
ont his dirk. hoped in and made a
/ terrific lunge ut Whipple's face.

lodged suddenly, and Coffey fell

The Charm of the mississippi.

To novice eyes 4 trip down the NIissis-
sippi is full of wonder. Not the beau
ties of the Hudson does one find, nor
the castled turrets of the Rhine, nor
the gay pageants of the stored
Thames, nor the gentle loneliness OF
that small stream that graces the
mountain region of North Carolina-O
thrice fair Swananoa!-but beauty
all its own has this wonderful Missis-
sippi, which on its serpentine way
from pearly Lake Itasca to the blue
waters of the Mexican gulf traverses
2,616 miles of territory. Its legends
and traditions, its great flush times be-
fore the war, its spectacular history,
may all be learned from some quaint
old river man who will gladly give full
measure of his lore. There is charm
in the vast stretches of forest, in the
loneliness of the great stream-Father
of Waters-in its mightiness and SUI
preme length, its sunsets and its sun
rises.-Sports Aheld.

ANCIENT COFFEE.
The Way the Beverage Was Breved
In the seventeenth Century.


There are in existence in Great
Britain a few copies of an ancient'
cookbook, published in 1862, that gives
what is perhaps the first English recipe
for coffee. The recipe reads:
ITO make the drink that is now much
used, called coffee.
1.-THE coffee berries are to be bought
at any Druggist, about seven shillings
the pound. Take what quantity you
please, and over charcoal fire, in an
old frying pan, keep them always stir
ring until they be quite black, and
when you crack one with your teeth
that it is black within as it is without,
yet if you exceed, then do you waste
the Oyl, and if less, then will it not de-
liver its Oyl; and if you should con-
tinue fire till it be white, it will then
make no coffee, but only give you its
salt. Beat and force through lawn
sieve.
''Take clear water, and boil one-third
Of it away, and it is fit for use. Take
one quart of this prepared water, put
in it one ounce of your prepared coffee,
and boil it gently one hour, and it is fit
for your use; drink one-quarter of q
pint as hot as you can sip it. 1t doth
abate the fury and sharpness of the
Acrimony, which is the gender of the
Diseases called Cronical."

Small Horses.

The biologists tell us that the oro-
bippus, the ancestor of the noble horse
of today, was but little larger than the
common rabbit of today and that each
had sixteen toes. four on each foot, the
same as the cattle of today. After the
lapse of ages this sixteen hoofed equus
shed a toe or hoof from each foot and
thus became a twelve toed animal.
The sixteen hoofed variety are first
found in the eocene period of geologic
al eDOchS.

coFFEY RIPPED OUT HIS DIRK.

tiffc pair of fists lasted for fully five
minutes, Coffey striving desperately
to land with his dirk and never so
much as scratching Whipple, while
every time he made a lunge he got
Il stunning wallop from one of the
brawny fists of the night marshal.
Sam Tuthill would have shot Coffey
from behind the bar, but he was afraid
of hitting Whipple, the two men We're
circling about SO swiftly. Finally
when Coffey made one of his swift
sweeps with his knife Whipple- sud
denly ducked, ran squarely between
Coffey's legs and lifted the giant off
his feet as easily as an ordinary man
would hoist a sack Of salt. Coffey
came down on all tours, and Whipple
twisted his right arm until the dirk
dropped out of his nerveless grasp
with the dirk at the bully's throat
Whipp1e made him repeat grovehng
apology to the tenderfoot, who stood
near. paralyzed with fear.

Letters from
Women

Cured by the use of Kodol are received daily.
Their troubles nearly all begin with indiges-
ton or other stomach disorder.
If the food you eat fails to give strength
to your body, it is because the juices Sc
Creted by the stomach and digestive organs
are inadequate to transform the nutrient prop
critics of the food into blood. That is
indigestion. The system is deprived of the
amount of nourishment required to keep up
the strength, and the result is that one or
more of the delicate organs gradually grows
weak, and then weaker, until finally it is
diseased. Here a great mistake is made.
That Of treating the diseased organ. The
best doctors in the land make this very
mistake. Why should they? II is so easy
to see that the trouble is not there.
