RICH MEMS SONS
TRYTOBE REAL COWBOYS
By r. w. Schaefer.

BLISS, Okla, July 27.-"With a
red handkerchief round the neck
they look like a cowpuncher one
minute, and the next they've slip
ped into a boiled shirt and store
clothes"
Doc" the old retainer at "101"
ranch, speaks through his cigaret,
and these words came filtering
through his amber tinted mustache
along with a thread of smoke. they
are an epitome of the life of an
amateur cowboy on the ranch.
In the shade Of some treasured
trees on the banks of the Salt Fork
of the Arkansas river are clustered
half dozen portable cottages. This
Is wall street" The ranchers
call it that because there are hous-
ed the tenderfeet, the capitalists
sons from the east, who have de-
cided to answer the call of the
wild.
Yes, here the lily skinned parlor
product gets right down to nature
like Roosevelt did-and sleeps on
the plains under starry canopy
and eats hand NADIA food behind
the chuck wagon and shoots jack
rabbits with .44s, rides inornate
saddles and Shoes real but short
horn cattle down to the pen at the
railroad station. He learns to
throw the lariat and to roll a Gig
aret in the saddle with one hand.
When he gets tired of this he can
dig down in his steamer trunk and
get out an So tennis racket and
play few sets. Then there is polo
to play, with exclusive polo ponies
to ride. AS a further change from
the delights of the round up the
wall streeter" can rush into the
palatial ranch house and tear off
several rolls of Chopin on a ma
chine plaed piano.
However, they don't pretend to
make cowboys by diploma at "101"
ranch. The prime idea of harbor-
ing the rich mems sons is to give
them vacation, and as to becom-
ing cowboy they can go as far as
they like. Most of them go as far
as they possibly can.
There are about rs real cowboys
on the ranch. They take kindly to
the tenderfeet, the experience of
several years proving that the city
lad who chooses this kind of vaca-

ton can be depended upon to be a

is the test, when he Is likely to be
chaffed on his awkardness.
There are a score or so of scions

The result, it is said, is that a ranch

LATEST DOSE Of
INSURANCE
MEDICINE

That the Washington insurance
combine is bound to get in that
%. per cent advance on everything
possible is shown in the fix in
which the holder of an unexpired
policy in the Home Fire & Marine
Insurance company of California
finds himself
The company has paid every
cent of obligation growing out of
the San Francisco disaster, but is
now out of business. In order to
absolve itself from liabilities of
futures, the company is notifying
holders Of unexpired policies that
So-and-So company will take on the
unexpired policy.
When the policy holder began to
talk business with the agent of So
and-So he was met at the outset
with the proposition that he will
have to come up with the familiar
25 per cent advance. The man is in
a predicament. The Home COM
pany accepted his money in ad-
vance for a years insurance. But
the company now says that it can't
stand good for the unexpired term.
In order to realize on what he has
already paid for insurance the
policy holder must now submit to
being held up for the inevitable 25
per cent advance.
