than to guess he'd taken to the road
You know the girl?'
"Yes, know her"
"Well, don't tell her. Sam was q
good fellow. II was only that he didn't
have anything to live for You can't
blame him. He's dead now. He got in
with some yeggs after he left me and
the bulls got him In Chi"
THE bulls got him" The woman's
voice quavered little.
That's slang" explained the tramp.
''The Chicago policemen started to ar
rest him, and he tried to run, so they
shot him. He was a good man." he
added softly. 'Say, lady, you couldn
let me have some more bread, could
you, to take with meY
She rose without a word and entered
the house, returning presently with a
fresh loaf and some cold meat wrapped
in a paper. With a word of thanks
the tramp slouched off, and the summer
stiffness fell upon the piazza again.
But the Woman's heart throbbed with
a dull ache.
"The bulls got him In Chi"
The sentence ran in her brain. So
this was the epitaph of her boy lover.
The heroic rescue, in which he gave up
his life for another, was but figment
of Imagination. She shuddered as
though she had come in physical con-
tact with the thing that had been her
idol and who had become a loathsome,
ragged tramp.
Then her thoughts softened. Her
visitor had been right. Sam had been
different from the practical, unimagina-
tive men with whom he lived. They
had made great plans for the future
their future-and disappointment had
taken the heart out of him.
A dreamer, men called him; vision
ary, who preferred the pen to the plow.
1t was for this reason that her father
had withheld his consent and had fore
ed her into a hateful marriage with
Condor.
She sat with idle hands staring across
the fields. with eyes that pierced the
veil of years. Her eyes were dry. Her
tears were long since shed, but the old
wound bled afresh.
For years her heart had been as q
stone within her breast, but now II
softened under the influence Of her
grief. The sinking sun shot its beams
slantwise across the porch and warmed
afresh her benumbed sensation. At last
she stirred.
Sue" she called. The girl, her eyes
red and swollen from weeping, appear
ed In the doorway.
YOU'D better bathe your eyes and
put ON your muslin Dress" counseled
her mother. "If Hank is coming you'll
want to look your best. I'll say yes
my dear. guess you ought to know
better than me whether It's you or the
farm he wants. You've got right to
happiness"
you've thought 1t over?" asked the
girl as she kissed the faded cheek.
Il guess I've had message from the
Lord" she answered, "even though he
did pick out tramp for messenger"

owner. She had been forced into a
lOveless marriage by an avaricious ia
ther, and her heart had turned to
stone She could not believe in love.

green banks of yerdure shambled

unmindful of Mrs. COndon's shriN
warning that she did not feed tramps.
"Pll work for it," he said eagerly.
Pm willing to pay my way, but you
people are so set against tramps that
you won't even give me a chance to
work for food"
81 suppose you'll tell me next that
you're a mechanic on his way to job
that's been promised him." she said
scOrnfulIy
'I'm tramp, a hobo" he said de-
family. It's all I've been for ten
years and more only work when
have to, but I'm willing to work now
for the sake of food"
Mrs. Condor smiled approvingly. She
liked truth even in a tramp.
Il guess there amt much to do" she
said as she rose to her feet. THE
woods all split, and I've got two men
for chores, but I'll give you some
thing"
The tramp sank down on the steps,
and presently she reappeared with
bowl containing the remnants of a
stew and part of loaf of bread.
She watched him as he wolfed his
food, and when he set the bowl down
on the porch she nodded approvingly.
II guess you We're hungry" she con-
ceded. I'VE don't like tramps in
through here"
"You don't have to tell me-" he de-
slared, with n grin. 81 knew a chap
what came from round here some
where. He was my side partner for a
couple Of years. They used to call
him Starry Sam because he had brace
let's of stars tattooed on his wrists"
II know the man you mean," she
said, with an impasslve face, but I
didn't know he was a-tramp"
There was a woman" explained the
tramp seeing that she was interested
and scenting IA chance to get food to
carry with him on his way.
''He told me the story once. He was
in love with a girl, but her old man
made her marry fellow that had mon
ey. Sam couldn't stand for seeing her
another mans wife, and he lit out.
"He wasn't a hit in the city. His
disappointment sOrter took the heart
out of him"
Il know" she said quietly. HE was
killed the next year while saving a lit
tie child"

Mrs. COndOn'S
Message.
BY az. F. Bryan.


The porch was pleasant place IN the
quiet of the summer afternoon. Mrs.
Condor rocked slowly back and forth,
pauSing now and then in her sewing to
look across the broad acres TO the
wooded patch on the ridge that marked
the horizon. 1t was all hers, the rich
est farm in Liscom county, and yet she
sighed softly as she took up her work
again.
Ma" Mrs. Condor looked up with
a start Her thoughts had been far
back in the past when she was young
and as pretty as the girlish figure that
stood in the doorway.
Henry Griswold is coming to see
you this afternoon" went on the girl.
"He wants to ask you-fOr me-"
With cheeks atiame she leaned for
ward and buried her face on the elder
woman's shoulder. Mrs. Condor push
ed her gently away and the gaunt,
tired face grew hard.
Does Hank Griswold want to marry
you or the farm" she demanded blunt
ly. 1T amt going to do him mite OF
good to ask"
"He doesn't want the old farmF'
stormed the girl. We're going to live
Oh his place"
'If he gets you" amended Mrs. Con-
don. 1T won't do mite o good to
argue, Sue. There amt no fortune
hunter going to marry you"
He's not fortune hunter" defend
ed the girl. IT'S cruel. wicked, hate
full thing to say"
you go right straight into the
house." commanded Mrs. Condor, "and
don't you come out here again until
you can he respectful to your mother" !"
For a moment the girl paused rebel
liously, but habit was stronger than
this new mutinous feeling, and slowly
she went inside. Mrs. Condor picked
up her sewing again, but her hands
lay idle in her lap, and tired eyes look
ed out across the fields. She had paid
a bitter price for those broad acres,
and Hank GriswOd, struggling with
his tiny farm, should never be their

THUMBS IN HOGS.
The Cause Of This DisssSS and How ts
Treat II.

-
Treat II.
Thumps Is a result OF certain dis
eased conditions in the system and is
not TO be looked upon as a disease
itself. The cause In practically all
cases is the character OF the feed oil
the way the hogs are kept or a com
bination of both. 1t is usually the n.
suit of an unhealthy condition OF the
blood, generally caused by large mum.
Der Of worms In the intestines caused
by Oyerfeeding with lack of sufficient
exercise. Rheumatic conditions may
cause it, or the irritation caused by a
large number OF worms In the intestines
may be the cause However. the most
frequent cause of the disease Is feed
ing an excess of corn or other foods
Of like character and not enough nj
trogenOus foods.
Usually the hogs that suffer from
thumps are fat. overfed young hogs,
and feed composed largely of corn
would produce this condition. l think
the best prevention would be to give
variety of feed or at least to feed
less corn and to have the pigs where
they could have the run of pasture.
Hotel slops would be the kind of ma
terial that would produce fat and not
muscle, being in this respect like corn.
If it Is impractical to secure and
use feeds of a'proteid nature, / would
advise feeding less corn to the young
hogs until they are few months old,
as every hog raiser who has had ex.
perience with the trouble knows that
it is the young fat pigs that are gener-
ally troubled with the thumps.
Ii treatment is undertaken at the
beginning of the trouble. it il generally
successful At the first indication of
the disease give one or two ounces of
castor oil as a physc and follow this
with tIncture of opium and tincture of
dlgitnlis, giving twenty drops of each
at dose. Give this every two or three
hours, and you can generally relieve
most Of the cases IN from twelve to
fifteen hours. II the pig is much 'ex-
hausted, you can combine with the
above one-eighth ounce of aromatic
spirits Of ammonia in little cold wa
ter Unless the pig is quite sick and
will refuse feed the best way to give
such medicine as recommended above
is to give it in small amount Of feed,
as milk or wet ground feed. II neces-
Sary to give the medicine by hand,
take large spoon and place the medi-
cine as far back In the mouth as posi-.
BILE. Never give medicine to a pig
while It is struggling or squealing, as it
is liable to get it into the windpipe.-

The Ri. Rev. r. S. Spalding bishop of

al the Crystal theatre. spoke for the first
house
Bishop Spaiding expected 60 conduct his
first service on Ash Wednesday but his
train was delayed SO that he did not reach
Denver until late in the evening.
The bishops subject was the difference
IN the worlds standard OF morals and the
Christian standard. Few people, he said.
give Christianity fair trial. Even those
who profess the Christian faith give the
world but A poor example of the teach
iugs Of Christ. The real Christian. he
said. does not think Of what IS the best
policy He pointed out that there were
TWO ways of living. One either lived for
the whole Of humanity Or else one taxed
the whole for Individual gain.
The services will be continued daily
throughout the Lenten period.
