used to bow her tawny head at the
caprices of earth, air and sky. that
nothing was further from er parents
minds than her reluctance when the
lord OF San Jose valley condescended
20 ask his hard-working poems for
their daughter. Just why Camilla's q
glowing, black eyes should flush with
tears instead of shine with delight at
the great honor was beyond the di-
vinatlon OF the star readers, and she
never told. The marriage of the
daughter meant the liberty of the par

1t. He was good man and would
keep his word. Camilla knew that.
The prelado who was to perform the
ceremony had called to congratulate.
he told her any maiden in the prov
ince would be rightly proud to win
the love Of de Gomara, and left her
quite dutiful.
The wedding was a fine affair.
Looking like some glorious bird of
the tropics. the little bride smiled
sweetly beside her lordly husband and
extended a soft white hand to we'll
wishing friends. Military men from
the Alajuela mountain garrison
formed fair proportion of the guests,
and their smart uniforms blended
artistically in the sparkling panorama
under tho chandeliers.
The perfume of rare flowers, the
languorous melodies of CASTLE and the
subtle magnetism Of bright eyes that
outshone their own diamonds chased
the glad hours away. In groups of
two to ten the guests were scattered
about the verandas and the softly
lighted lawns. As they walked side
by side under the shadow of the date
palms the young husband was gently
breathing the story Of his first love
to the starlit face beside him. In
words of boyish enthusiasm he
sketched the rose-strewn way along
the velvet path Of life. She listened
rs q glad child, and for answer raised
her warm. trembling lips to his. A
tall streak of fire shot out from the
sullen mouth Of Cartago volcano.
ITS the birth of love-" murmured
The adortng husband; ITS a good
omen. sweetheart"
Camilla assented, her coral lips
showing the white gems beneath.
They had reached the far end of the
lawn, where de Gomara stopped and
raised his hand to the stardecked
heavens.

Then discovery was made by q pair
Of promenaders. The stricken hacen.

"Ten thousand pesos for the brigand
Moreno, dead or alive!"
So cried the lord Of San Jose valley
as he climbed into the saddle on his
great bla k stallion and led the way.
A like reward had been standing
against the bandit captain by federal
warrant since he had relieved the
bank at Alajuela some moons back.
and there were in addition captaincies
and colonelships galore for the sub
alterns who crossed swords with him
and lived.
Under the tropic heavens, through
the perfumed foliage, into the wild
mountains rode the rescuers, three
hundred strong. Fercely in the
van thundered the black steed Of
the hacendado. his riders mind

punishment for the malefactor.

ridiculously inadequate. The faggots

yet scarcely measuring up to the ext

and perhaps an ideal method might
be suggested.
AS the ascent grew sleeper the party
deployed. De Gomara and his retinue
keeping straight ahead, turned sudden

the mountain. Across the abyss was
Moreno and his fantastic crowd of
outlaws lined up as II waiting. Camilla
sat on the saddle in front Of her cap

raised his carbine. The bandit held
up his right hand.

An engagement ring should never be

Justice David J. Brewer contributes
an interesting article on woman in
the Professions" In the Delineat0r.
during the last half century woman has
broken down the doors Of entrance Into
professional life. that she Is no longer
merely an incident but conspicuous
factor in politics and many Of the pro-
fessiOns. To quote In part:
She has a brain and Is capable of
receiving the highest educational train
ing. The land Is covered with co-edu-
cational colleges and universities, and
no one has yet had the hardihood to
Of her work In them. In the realm of
literature she Is constantly present.
Prose and poetry are at her command.
Who writes the most Of our acceptable
stories? What masculine poet dares to
look down on Mrs. Browning? No long
er are face and form everything. We
have learned to behold the intellect In
her. We see her In the pulpit, at the
bar, and In the doctors office. She
knows something of the Bible, quotes
Blackstone, and, like masculine doc
tors. writes prescriptions In dead Ian
guage. She claims the right to be In
every department of professional life,
and many are asking how far she has
gone and will 60 in that life; what
has been and what will be her success.
True, she has not yet become baseball
or football champion and this depart
ment Of culture still remains the pecu-
liar occupation of masculine students.
But who knows how soon she may be-
come successful competitor therein |?
She Is developing as an athlete. Some
Bo-called physiological statisticians af-
nrm that her average stature Is increas-
Ing. In the economic world she has
broken the confinements of home and
entered the doors of outside toll. She
has established the fact that she has a
mind as well as a heart"

For CaIIoused Shoulders.

A farmer in North Dakota gives his
method of treatment and cure of cal
loused shoulders of work horses In the
Dakota Farmer, which he says he has
used with uniform success, as follows /:
81 cut slit In the front part of the
collar opposite the callous, then cut
another slit at right angles across the
first one. then take out enough of
the filling to allow for callous. After
soaking face of collar In warm water
1 lay the front part, where cuts have
been made, on a plank or something
solid, and pound face Of collar where
1t presses on callous, with round-faced
hammer, till a sufficient hollow ha.
been made. This plan will work
whether collar has been used with or
without pad Then when the horse
comes In from work / battle the calloug

A Bur Dining Room.

Many women are having their dining
rooms done in buff color instead Of the
blue which has been SO much in vogue
since the rage for Dutch furniture,
placques, mugs and chinaware Of all
sorts. The walls done In this tone are
light enough to permit Of half drawn
blinds of the same shade, and in many
Instances there are diminutive silken
curtains of lighter shade of yellow.
Any yoke furniture blends nicely with
this decoration on wall and windows,

why Women GROW Tired.

A wise counselor tells tired women
that it.is not the work they do that
tires them, 1t Is the way they do It.
The woman whose work Is never out
of her mind Is the woman who is al
ways tired. The farmers wife doing
weeks work in her Imagination, after
she goes to bed; the bookkeeper search
Ing in her dreams through columns
Of figures for an obstinate balance-all
these are tired because they do not
know what 1t is to have mind at
ease.
A story Is told Of conscientious wor-
rier, who, hurrying about her work,
slipped and fell. The result, broken
hip, placed her for weeks out of reach
of "the things which must be done"
Weeks Of lonely rest brought her new
perspective Of life. and a conviction
that peace Of mind is more than pies

Feet of the Horse.

To get the most from a horse Its feet
must be kept in proper condition; not
only well and properly shod, but cared
Tor by the owner in the matter OF clean
illness. The beginning of such care
should be the clean stable; that Is, the
stable clean of manure, than which
nothing Is worse for the horse to stand
In for any considerable time. When
the horse comes In from a day Of work
In the fields, which are soft, or from
hard drive ON muddy roads, look after
Its feet and legs. Each hoof should be
looked over carefully and cleaned, and
the legs should be groomed as carefully
as the sides. Then there are the por-
tons of the coat which are covered by
the harness which ought to have good
care each time the horse Is brought into
the barn. First Of all, see that the har
ness fits well, then, after embarrassing
wipe off the places touched by the har-
ness, using a moist rag or sponge. If
there Is any suspicion Of a rubbing,
look to the cause at once and remove
1t. There Is no time in the work days
Of the horse when good care and watch
fitness will do so much to keep him In
good condition as during the period Of
hard spring work.

The work of different experiment sta

foreign seeds are contained in clover
and alfalfa seed, including the dod-
ders, which are SO destructive to alfal-
IA, and a large number Of bad weed
pests like the narrow plantain, wild
mustard and host Of new weeds.
One impure sample Of last years sup

eign seeds, including both species Of
dodder, the plantains, many common
weeds, three species Of Western weeds
that are new In Ohio and as many
European weeds that have been here
tofore unknown in this State. At least
dozen new weeds have been intro
duced into Ohio in alfalfa seed during
half as many years.
While this Is unacceptable 1t is still
more SO to get only black medick (yel-
low trefoil) plants as many have done.
where supposed alfalfa seed was sown.
In these times Of high-priced seeds
there is temptation to adulterate with
cheap seeds like the black medick, etc,
which have very slight value as forage
plants with US; there Is like DISPOSE
ton to offer seeds with many weed
seeds, at low prices. Both these dan
gers are real. Intending purchasers of
such seeds will do well to be assured of
their quality.

BE st Farm Hands.

Labor on farms Is nearly always
pressing after spring opens, but 1t Is
difficult to secure capable help. There
are many excellent opportunities for
boys to secure good homes and fair
wages II they are willing to serve
year on farms In the endeavor to learn.
1t may be mentioned that, while many
suppose that anybody can work on
a farm" the fact Is that even a large
number of laborers accus stoned to farm
Ing are undesirable. The best farm
hands are those who require no super
vision, thus relieving the employer Of
the necessity of leaving his personal
duties In order to look after the help.
