FOUR ear-old, is a grandson Of Red
Wilkes on his sire's side and grand
son of Nutwood on his dams side,
making combination Of Nutwood
and Wilkes blood which is hard to
beat. Bill Human was sired by
Ithureal 2:0914, the fastest son Of
Red Wilkes. Ithureal is the sire Of
Pearl Lester 2:1315, Ember Day
2:2211, Decoration Girl 2:2415. Thu
reals dam is by Strathmore, the
great brood mare sire. Ithureal won
the fastest three heats ever paced
over the Lancaster track. Bill
Humans dam is Leona Wood, by
Cedarwood 2:2415. She is the dam of
Bill Bailey, the fastest 2-yr-old ever
raised in Grant county, and has
proven herself to be the best brood
mare in Grant county. She has five
colts that will show for themselves.
Bill Humans second dam is by
Royalty 2:25. third dam by Mambrino
Swigert 2:3O, the blood that made
Grant county famous for it's high
priced coach and driving horses and
brought the best buyers throughout
the state of Wisconsin and Illinois.
Bill Hinman is dark brown, 1871
hands high, weighs 1850 pounds,
good disposition, good gated and an
extra high knee and hook actor,
and that is the kind that brings
the money. While he has had but
very little work he can show 2:3O

caster all the time. Terms: $40 to
insure mare in foal.
At Fennimore Mondays and Tuesdays.

"Who? Why, that's Tom. I'll for
mally introduce you some day."
'You needn't mind. | found him
rather presumptuous and had to snnb
him."
tom presumptuous? Why, he's the
incest
And then she suddenly skipped to
some other subject, and Tom was for
gotten till the next day, when he was
bold enough to approach Miss Bessie
as she was alone for moment and
ask:
What sort of a gait do you prefer
in hOrse-a trot or lOpe? | am to
select one for you today"
THANK you, but you needn't go to
any trouble on my account" was the
reply, and Tom ought to have felt duly
crushed as he walked away.
He was not seen again for four days,
duty having called him away. The two
girls rode out every day on ponies Sc
lected for them, and on the fourth oc-
casion something happened. The pony
ridden by Miss Bessie suddenly bolted,
and when she found him beyond con-
troll she could only cling to the saddle
and hope he would tire himself out
after running couple of miles. But he
didn't. He kept straight course and
a headlong gallop for mile after mile,
and the girl was thinking of throwing
herself from the saddle when cow
pony ranged up beside her, a hand
grasped her loose rein, and voice said
in her ear:
"Keep your Lead, Miss Vaughn. I
could pull him down and end his run
here, but there is need Of even more
speed
"W-what is it?' she asked as she
turned her head and saw Tom beside
her
Indians! There are five or six in
chase of us, and am racing for that
hill with the rocks on it. Cling tightly.
and don't be afraid"
After terrific race for another mile
both animals were suddenly pulled up,
and, dismounting and lifting the girl
from the saddle, Tom half pulled her
up the steep side Of the hill to the
shelter of the rocks.
1--WE are all right now" he cheerful
~ said. "But you keep crouched down
till have little talk with these noble
red men,"
The 'talk" was his Winchester, and
before it was over he had killed one
and wounded another. Their loss, to-
gether with the alarm of the firing,
sent the remaining Indians scurrying
away.
At the ranch house, after the story
had been told, Miss Bessie asked for
the second time:
"Who is this mar Tom?'
"Why, he's an old Yale man and be-
longs to one Of the best families in
the east. He came out here for his
health, you see. Did you have to snub
him again todayY
I'll don't think SOL
"But are you going to some other
day?'
mo, never again. I'm so sorry and
ashamed and I think-think"-
Well, there's rumor afoat, and it
may be true.

The Ainu women are the family

Although there are no dry goods stores
In the land. when new outfit OF gar
ments is desired free and unlimited
raw material is at hand. In the early
spring they go to the mountains and
get loads OF elm tree bark. from ths
fiber OF which they weave cloth. The
bark is put In water to soak and get
soft, after which IL is taken out and
the nber arranged into threads and
wound upon balls. IL is then woven
into narrow rolls OF cloth. on a primi-
tive loom. The garments are rough
and have faded brown color. A few
well-to-do Anus wear Japanese cloth
