THE HEART OF THE HILLS

There's a wonderful country lying
Far on from the noisy town.
Where the wind flower swings
And the veery sings
And the tumbling brooks come down
MS land Of light and OF laughter
Where peace all the woodland fills,
It's the land that lies
Meath the summer skies.
In the heart of the happy hills.
The road to that wonderful country
Leads out from the gates of care.
And the tired feet
In the dusty street
Are longing to enter there:
And a voice from that land IS calling.

When it is here remarked that the
male American is declaring symptoms
of dawning effeminacy no occasion is
offered for indignant Reproduction. The
average American has so much thor
ough masculinity that he can spare
enough to dover less vigorous peo-
pie What Is meant is that the natural
Seaction to the paramountcy OF the
American girl has set in. AS she shares
the pursuits, the pleasures and the liber-
ties of her brothers and IMPOSES her
commands upon them she becomes more
masculine, they more feminine; her
shoulders square off; theirs begin to
slope. She dons the sweater and blazer
and wears her skirts shorter and
shorter: they take to pink shirt waists
and clocked open work stockings, and
their ever baggier trousers, worn SO long
that they have to be turned up at the
bottom, seem fashioned on a seragllo
pattern.-N. Y. Mail and Express.

Mysterious Heir.


Mysterious Heir.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept l. - What
purports to be the last will and testa-t
ment of Charles L. Fair has made it's
way through the mail to the chambers
of Superior Judge F. J. Murasky.
On opening the envelope Judge Mu~.
rasky found what purports to be viii
signed by Charles L. Fair and wit
messed by the late L. W. Lees and Wa
III. L. Barnes. 1t was short and type
written, Mr.. Fairs signature and that
Of the two alleged witnesses being
written in ink.
In this alleged will Mr.. Fair mentions
his son Charles j." and to him he BET
queaths the sum of 100000. In adj
dition to this bequest, the sum of $780,
600 is bequeathed to ssthe Roman Cath
Ollie Orphan asylum $500, 900 to s.Jo-.
seph Harvey" and $4,000 ITO the city
of San Francisco for the purpose OF
founding hospital"
The residue of the testator's estate is
left to his wife, who is named as ex-
ecutrix. The alleged will is dated at
San Francisco April 10, 1901.
The mysteries OF this purported will
are increased by the Identification OF
an alleged heir In the person Of
Charles L. Fair, Jr. This heir was
hinted at some months ago by Attorney
William Cannon, who stood sponsor fox
III as entitled to q share OF the estahu
Of the dead millionaire The child. i
however, was never produced In the.
flesh, and the attorney never disclosed
the identfts, Of the mother
Attorney Cannon said OF the alleged
will:
II believe it is a fake and viii NOT
ask that it be admitted for probate.l
As far as the child of Charles L. Eair
is concerned, have nothing further to
say at this time.''

question about 95 per cent OF the

Statistics, understand, have been
