STILL HUGGING DELUSIONS

A COUPLE WEEKS ago representatives of the
United Mine Workers of America met in Pueblo and
other things voted to continue and they
it out that they would greater efforts than
to win the strike but declined divuge the exact
nature of their plans.
Whether they will beat into jelly men than
formerly who guilty of the crime working
whether they will dynamite mines mining men
whether they will practice their system of threats
intimidation to greater degree than heretofore or
whether they will murder people than ever they
declined to state.
However if the continuance of the strike is of
consequence than what these fellows are now
pleased to designate strike will make but little
difference how long it is prolonged except as to the
wives and children of those erstwhe miners who prefer
to support y their families husks doled ont TO

All Pleased With Glenwood

Glenwood has been the mecca of
scores of people from Denver and east
ern cities all the week and will con
tinue to be such for two or three
months while the heat continues to
increase in those sections.
Several parties from Denver came
up last Saturday to remain over the
Fourth to avoid the heat, noise and
other disagreeable phases of the cele.
bration of the country's natal day.
Colonel s. B. Dick and Congress
man John Dalzell and their wives of
Pennsylvania, were among the promi-
nent arrivals at the Colorado. They
remained over until Wednesday, pro-
longing their stay day on account of
the ATTRACTIONS which Glenwood pos
sesses for almost all who once come
here to spend the summer or for a
short outing or vacation. One party,
whose ticket was limited and who
was going to Yellowstone from here
remarked, ''if had known what you
have here ] would have made entirely
different arrangements and would
have planned to spend much longer
time in Glenwood. All of which
goes to show that once you get per
son to come to Glenwood you have Sc
cured an animated advertisement for
the place. Everybody get together
and get people to come to Glenwood.
By so doing you are doing favor to
the visitor as we'll as accomplishing

to be properly observed but how who explosives

day? Does the greater proportion the people

the peculiar significance of the occasion?

all these pieces without cutting the in

tits one thing to fall. in love and an
other to propose marriage. Men may
be wise and cautious; they may have
most sensibly made up their minds that
it would be neither right nor fair for
them to speak, and they may have def
nitely resolved not to say word on
the subject Of marriage till they have.
at least, prospect of making home
for wife.
Then there comes an accidental upset
to their calculations-a word, look, a
blush, smile. All these fine reasonings
are thrown to the winds; they have
blurted out the love they meant to keep
concealed till the correct moment of
avowal came. Araminta has confessed
she reciprocates' the devotion she is told
of, and nothing remains but to ask
papa's consent, and visit = jewelers..
But then comes the side that is not
all rapture. At first, to be engaged is
enough to send any Two adoring people
up into seventh heaven of bliss; but
by and by that ceases entirely to satisfy.
They would like to marry, to belong en-
tirely to each other: to set up house
keeping, and know all the delights OF a
home which the other shares. The true
test of love is not in the proposing and
accepting, neither is it in the buying
and wearing the ring; it is in the wait
ing with patience and indefinite time
for the fulfillment Of hope of which
the proposal and the engagement ring
were merely pledge.
The question again and again arises:
How long is it reasonable for a man
to ask girl to wait for him." If it is
year, or even two, or three, he may
be justified; for, after all, there is a
definite end to the waiting. which draws
nearer every day. But il after five
years, say, the end looks no nearer-n
he is still just as unlikely to be able to
support wife-should he still expect
a girl to go on wasting the best years Of
her life on his behalf?
If she really loves him, it will not mat
ter to her though she waited for him
20 years. 1t will be uc:l an utter i'm
possibility for her to think of any other
man than himself that she will not feel
her chances in other directions are be-
ing spoiled, for if she may not marry
him, she would rather not marry any
one else while the world lasts. She will
count any waiting short and light that
has the hope of being his wife at the end
of it, and she will wait without de-
sire to be free. II she does not love him
why, that is different matter. and she
had better not undertake at all waiting
which she will find intolerable.-Chi-
cago American.

LEMON HAS MANY USES.
the Hands, Finger Nails and
the Complexion.

The usefulness of the lemon begins in
the morning, even before you are out
of bed. The juice of half a lemon
squeezed into a glass of water and drunk
unsweetened the first thing in the morn
ing is an excellent remedy for bilious
disorders.
If girls appreciated the lemons use
fulness as beautitier, they would al
ways have one at hand. The fingers or
finger nails may have stains that re-
fuse to yield to soap and water, in which
case a little lemon juice will usually
prove successful. Before manicuring
the nails you should always soak them
for at least five minutes in basin OF
water in which are few drops of lemon
juice. The skin which grows so Of
fensively around the nails is pushed
back by orange wood sticks first dipped
in lemon Juice: and as for the teeth, no
more effective cleanser or purer mouth
wash can be found than a half dozen
drops of lemon Juice in wineglass of
water.
After washing the hands, lemon-juice
and water makes splendid bleach, but
one curious thing should be remembered.
Lemon juice pure darkens the skin, so
do not make the mistake of rubbing in
plain lemon-juice, instead of diluting it
with water.
Lemon juice and glycerine is good for
chapped hands. Ii you have a hoarse
voice in the morning, lemon-juice
squeezed on to soft sugar till it is like
strip, and few drops of glycerine
added, relieves the hoarseness at once
while cold on the chest, or consump.
ton itself, finds a formidable enemy in
the following prescription:
Squeeze the juice of three lemons over
three whole eggs, shell and all. In two
or three days time tie shell will have
softened because of the effect of the
lemons acid on the lime composition Of
the shell. Then add pint of rum and
pound of pulverized brown sugar
candy. You can bottle this, and take
a spoonful every morning before ris-
ing. It is simply wonderful as tonic.
