their mammas on the veranda were lis

story" Six-year-old obeyed, after
the manner of women, and heard the
following:
Out west there was a man living
on ranch and his nearest neighbor
lived on another ranch, three miles
away. One day the first ranchman
sent his little daughter, who was five
years old. over to the other ranch to
get some milk. After she got a long
distance from home she saw some
Indians coming toward her on horse
back. She counted, and there were
nine of them She was very much
frightened, for the Indians were riding
fast, and were yelling, and she
knew they meant to kill her There
was no place for her to hide or to
run to. When she looked around for
help she saw cowboy coming from
another direction. He was riding fast,
too, for he saw the Indians, and he
knew they meant to kill the little girl.
The cowboy had the best horse, and
he rode up between the little girl and
the Indians and began to fight them.
They dashed at him and yelled fear
fully. but the cowboy killed six Of
the nine and the other three we're so
frightened at him and at the way
he could shoot that they ran away
and the little girl was saved.

placing his hand on his chest. 81 was

Ratha of Lemonade.

The very latest thing in Paris is the
lemonade bath. II is supposed to be
cooling, refreshing and beneficial.
A pretty Partisan actress has insti.
tuted the fashion Of letting her friends
see her take lemonade plunge. In .
charming directoire bathing dress,
with her hair tied up in yellow rib
bons, she sat and received her guests
in a white tub draped with yellow and
filled with lemonade, with pieces Of
lemon peel floaing about on the sur
face.
A glass Of iced lemona'e was given
to each guest, and for those who
would join in the novelty lemonade
baths were arranged and directoire
bathing dresses provided.
II Is scarcely likely that this form
Of the bath will ever become really
popular, but as an advertising scheme
for a young actress It is certainly far
better than lost jewels.-New York

MORTALITY DUE TO NEGLECT.
Heavy Losses Of Live Stock That
Might Easlly Be Prevented.

From authoritative reports by gov
eminent ofncials It appears that some
2.6S7,021 cattle die in the United
States annually from disease and ex.
posure-most Of them from neglect
From the same source 1t Is also ascer.
tained that the loss Of sheep from the
same causes Is as great. These fig-
ures only serve to show what a waste
full people we are. One Of the excuses
the beef trust makes for high prices
Of provisions is the enormous death
rate Of live stock on the range and on
the farm, most Of 1t due to pure
trifiingness of the herdsmen and the
grazier. Indeed, the losses by neglect
and exposure greatly exceed the losses
by disease.
1t would be impossible to estimate
the waste Of farm products after they
mature in the field; but 1t is enor-
nous, some OF 1t due to scarcity Of
labor, but most of 1t traceable to thrift.
less husbandry, or, in plain speech,
downright laziness. One source Of
waste is imperfect cultivation, for mil
lions Of farmers persist in half cult
walton OF large areas when they would
make more by proper tillage Of fewer
acres. Then there is immense waste
in the disregard Of intelligent rotation
OF crops. This is the worst sort of
waste, for 1t means devastation of
soils that requires years Of provident
tillage to replace. All over the east
are abandoned farms that would to-
day be gardens II they had been given
intelligent cultivation. The farmer is
not fit for his vocation who does not
increase the fertility of his soil every
year he cultivates 1t.

Brain Leaks.

he shaves, combs his hair, puts on his
collar, his necktie and his hat and
then discovers that he has omitted his

Another Indiana poet is in the lime
light for rhyming poems" with
homes" This is excusable, however,
on the ground that the poet knows
very little about home.
1t is really wonderful what a lot
of energy man will work off, tramp
ing through the snow for miles, get
ting his feet wet and going hungry,
and all to shoot (at) one poor, lonely,
homesick cotton-tail that has dared
to venture out of his bailiwick for a
dinner of twigs.
And after all, there is really no ex.
cietment in telling a secret to a girl
who can keep it.
About the time that man grows so
hypochondriacal as to quit trying, he
either gets a new tidy for his easy
chair or, if he is single, he meets an.
other girl-and is saved from the
dregs of despair and ennui. This old
life isn't so bad, after all.

General Demand

OF the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy

Universal Language.

He spoke his love in German-she
answered not word. In French he
tried to WOO her-the maiden never
heard. He tried his luck in English,
in Irish-all in vain; in Greek, Turkish
and Latin, and in the tongue of Spain.
And then an inspiration came to the
anguished youth. '3The universal
language" he cried, I'll try, for
sooth!" He kissed the demure maiden
and pressed her to his breast; she
understood that language, and-well,
you know the rest.
