A Snroutiny WILLOW Table.

At the home of f. II. Dudley, two
miles east Of Ventura, Cal, what was
a short time ago simple looking table

much attention, says the Los Angeles
Herald. The small center table Is made
Of willow, finely oiled and vanished,
and was purchased Of a tramp over

Mr. Dudley's fanny, and he bought it,
placing it in the parlor as an ornament.

WHY INDIANS PAINT.
An Apache Legend Which Account
For the GrOtesQue Custom.

An Apache Legend Which Accounts
For the Grotesque Custom.
Once an old Apache Indian, when
asked the question why the people
painted their faces, told this little leg
end:
Long ago, when men were weak and
animals were big and strong, chief
of the cred men who lived in these
mountains went out to get deer, for
his people were hungry.
after walking all day he saw
deer and shot at it, but the arrow was
turned aside and wounded a mountain
lion, which was also after the deer.
When the lion felt the sting Of the ar
row he jumped up and bounded after
the man, who ran for his life.
HE was almost exhausted, and when
he felt his strength giving way he fell
to the ground, calling on the big BEAR
who, you know, is the grandfather OF
men, to save him.
The big bear heard the call and saw
that to save the man he had to act
quickly, so he scratched his foot and
sprinkled his blood over the man.
Now, you know that no animal will
eat of the bear or taste of his blood
SO when the lion approached the man
he smelled Of the blood and turned
away, but as he did so his foot scraped
the face of the man, leaving the marks
of his claws on the blood smeared
face.
when the man found that he was
uninjured he was so thankful that ne
left the blood to dry on his face ana
never washed it at all, but left it until
it peeled off.
where the claws of the lion scraped
it off there were marks that turned
brown in the sun, and where the blood
stayed on it was lighter. Now all men
paint their faces that way with blood
and scrape it off In streaks when they
hunt or go to war"

Quite the contrary. At ths end of

times 1 feared that would never be
able to leave my bed"

When was lying In bed, unable TO
move and wasting away in flesh, friend
visited me and told me about the won

Pink Pills. He strongly urged me to try
them. and luckily had sense enough to
take his advice"
Did you mend quickly?
Yes, that was the astonishing rn1ng.
I noticed slight improvement before

pills, could get out Of bed while was

WAGON FOREMAN is FINED
FOR CRUELTY TO ANIMALS

George Bingaman was fined $50 in
the police court yesterday for cruelty
to animals, his offense consisting in
permitting his teamster to drive an in
capacitated horse to an oil wagon, the
animal being scarcely able to walk be-
cause of an affection of the hoof and
wounds about it's body. So terrible was
the sight Of the suffering horse that a
crowd of business men stopped the team
in front of the Hollenbeck hotel Friday
and requested a policeman to arrest the
driver The Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals took up the case
and prosecuted Bingaman, who is said
to be a foreman for Mrs. Emma Sum-
mers, the "oil queen"
