Many young women seem to labor
unoer the impression that once the
marriage ceremony Is over their object
Is attained, they have played theirpart,
SO to speak; the future can take care OF
itself. Ii is one thing TO gain mans
love. it Is quite another TO retain IL;
and the girl who Is willing TO rest con-
tent with having gained il will never
make marriage much of q success. A
girl generally studies her sweetheart,
more or less; she considers II this vii!
please him or il that will not Well.
II that sort OF thing is so far essential
before marriage. II is absolutely neces-
husband must be studied, and the wife
who does not study her husband will
never retain his love and respect.
Again, why Is il that sweetheart
who always dressed well and neatly
before marriage. adopts slovenly
style Immediately after settling down?
This often happens. and Ii may give
the husband food for much reflection.
for what does II hint at? Does IL not
suggest that having got him. she does
not care: in other words. may Ii not
mean that she only dressed carefully
in order to entrap him? Let hus-
band get those ideas into his head.
and love. ON his side. may be conspic-
uous by its absence. A wife should
really dress just as carefully after
marriage as before, more carefully In
fact, II she wants her husband TO re-
main a lover also. and by the waf.
that is the best condition under which
married life can be spent.
Then there Is another important
thing-a wife must always be interest
ed in her husband and all his doings.
and her interest must. in certain cir
cumstances, be blended with sympa-
thy. Take his business or profession.
for instance Well. OF course, IL Is to
her advantage to be interested In his
business: II he starts talking about II
she must listen. aud IL he wants adj ]

the best of her ability. This greatly |
aids a man; he is strengthened by /
the fact that his wife takes a deep in |

worries crop up she must be sympa-
thetic. and who knows but what she
may be able TO give him many a valu-
able hint Be very sure that the wife
who thus acts will retain her hus-
bands love. he finds that he could not
do without her; he gets into the habit
Of turning to her as his wise counsel

On the other hand. II wife Is apa-

Then there is one other important |
hing. most men have a hobby; indeed,
he man without a hobby Is hardly a
desirable person to marry. Well, a
wife should always take the deepest
interest In her husbands hobby. 1t
nay be argued that the particular
lobby may have no interest for her,
nut she must make herself interested

This is the cause of this part OF the

sponsible for the rapid wear OF the
silk. The constant friction causes the
tiny holes that appear so provokingly
early. When not in use leave the UNI

popularity called 'domesticity" and

Considerable interest was manifested
Wednesday on the K. P hunt, which
had been arranged for that date. Two
teams of about twelve had been selected
with NJ H. Payne and Vim Mathews as
captains. Each kill was to score so
many points which was rated according
to the scarcity of the fowl or animal.
Both sides at present are claiming that
they were the victors and things are in
something of muddle and is to be ar
bitrated later. Captain Payne and his
side came in with about $50 points
ahead. Hilbert Fogg, who had worked
in his blacksmith shop all day until late
in the evening, went out and killed his
pet goose which was cooped up in his
"own back yard, thus scoring 500 ad-
ditional points for his side and they

Band Of Robbers Unearthed.

One day about two weeks ago, a
deputy sheriff was passing the ranch Of
the Porry Brothers, in Mesa county, a
few miles from Grand Junction and
noticed several carcasses of freshly
dressed beef. As there had been COM
plant of beef stealing, he decided to
investigate. The law reqnires that
hides of beef dressed must be preserved
for certain length of time showing
the brands intact. The Perry's could
not produce the hides, and were arrest
ed and taken to Grand Junction.
Some hint or suspicion constrained
the officers to return to the ranch and
make an inspection. Fifteen men were
employed to dig about the ranch, over
turn rocks, search under buildings, etc,
and as result a large quantity of
stolen goods from various Grand Junct-
ion business houses during recent
months was discovered, including tools,
weapons and merchandise. Among
other things brought to light were
eight Winchester rifles, half q dozen
six shooters and three shot guns identi-
fed n part Of lot Of stuff stolen from
de White Hardwnss company several
months since, also two new overcoata
The young men arrested are George
Warren, Ben, Andrew and Asa Perry.

Engine Ditched.

The engine which has been recently
procured to haul coal from the Fairview
mine was ditched last Saturday on the
first trip up. The engine broke through
a small bridge over dry ditch near
John Hixon's place about ten miles
from Delta. The rear end of the
machine went through, dropping down
about five feet. Nothing was broken
about the engine and it was extricated
and arrived in town Wednesday draw
ing ten tons of coal after a somewhat
stormy trip.

Bank Robbers at hOtchkiss.

Monday night, sometime between
midnight and daylight, burglars entered
the Hotchkiss bank and attempted to
burglarize the safe. AS they were
green hands very poor job was made
of the affair. The robbers first broke
in the blacksmith shop and secured
sledge hammer and some carpenters
chisels, with these they succeeded in
opening several drawers which con-
tanned deposit papers. No attempt
was made to dynamite the safe. but an
effort was made to batter the safe door
in, but very little damage was done by
this process. 1t is not thought that
the burglars got any thing whatever
for their trouble. While no clew of
kind has as yed been found as to who
the robbers were, there are those who
are suspected.

Tempered With Engine.

Thursday morning at 5 O'Clock the
engineer operating the traction engine,
fired up the engine and worked his
steam up and went to breakfast.
While he was gone some one let the
water out of the engine and there
would have been an explosion if it had
not been for the safety plug. This is
the engine plying between Delta and
the Fairview coal mine Owing to the
Damage the start to the mine was not
made until this morning.

THROUGH THE FOREST
WHAT MAY BE SEEN ON A
SUMMER DAY.
Flowers and Trees and Animals Are
Interesting to the Nature Student
How to Study Them to the
Best Advantage.

Recently | walked through q forest
! 1t was one of those hot days when there
is no breeze stirring, and when all the
birds, save the red-eyed vireo and the
indigo bunting, are sitting silent in
the depths Of the woods. The most no.
ticeable sounds were those of the crick-
cts in the grass, the drowsy thrilling
of cicadas, and the occasional peep.
of a hyla from the foliage of the trees.
The coloring of the wild flowers had q
strong suggestion Of autumn, for the
goldenrod was at it's best, and mingling
with it were trumpet weed, boneset
and great masses of pearly everlasting
All the shrubs along the roadside were
hung with garlands of wild clenlatis.
and along the borders of the forest
itself even the darkest spots were
lighted by great clumps of the white
wood asters.
AS | entered the woods, the first
living creature to catch my eye was a
%chipmunk, looking bright and cheerful
in the least afraid, and he was MUNICH
ing briskly at some blueberries which
he had brought from a distance in his
cheek pouches. What impressed me
most at the moment, perhaps, was the
spotless condition of his fur. Here
was a little animal which lived in a
hole in the ground, grubbed in the soil
every day, and which at this season
lived chiefly on berries whose juice
dyed the hands of every man who
picks them. Yet, on that shining coat
before me, there vas neither mud, nor
dust, nor stain of any kind. No race
horse, fresh from the hands of a care
full groom, has a sleeker coat than this.
And so it is with most wild things; ii
seems that they might touch even pitch
without being defiled. Watch a musk
rat, delving in the muddy bank of a
stream, and then note the brightness

CUT AWAY MANS LAND

Mr.. AllgRir said that the change had

reversing the bill and charging Mr..
Morgan about 90, 200 for the improve
