The mustard had welded California

golden bands, when Margie came to El
Rosa.
'You had better go after her.

mistress of Ell Rosa. "You are the

Having nothing to do but idle away
my vacation, I very gladly took the
ten mile drive from FL Rosa, In the

the track where was to meet Margle

along l reviewed the signs one uses

that had learned them on a certain
other idle vacation.
No child alighted from the long train
but young, slender woman with hai,
eOlored like the fields OF mustard
through which l had passed. She
came directly to me, somewhat timid-
ly, but with no indication Of nervous
ness. She caught up a tiny book fas-

A Great SIrnrise.


Young Benjamin WAS coming down
The stairs as you gsters do,
Pausing at every step to stamp
Upon each tiny shoe.
And peoping through the banisters
He laughed aloud In glee
And held his wooden elephant
That all below might see.
Alas, when nearly down, the toy
Fell from his needless hand
And down upon the marble floor
With heavy thud did land.
A startled step did baby make,
With terror in his eyes,
And he. too. landed with thump,
And that was the surprise.

Lauahter Makes Beauty.

The art of laughter should surely
be cultivated; in fact, all and every
thing that leads to joy, The wish to
be happy, the love Of gladness and
beauty is thing to be desired; con-
sequently it is worth a little cultiva-
ton. Play is as essential a factor in
mems lives as work. Philosophers tell
us that no man lives his own life until
he plays. Work comes from the ex-
igencies of life, from the "musts" of
the world, which often push men along
different paths to those they would
choose to travel by from inclination
or capacity. Play is, however, his rec
reation, and here at his leisure time
comes out his whole soul; his power
of and choice of play, his greater or
lesser necessity of it, to recuperate
mind and body from the strain Of
daily work. Laughter is a gift that
makes man akin to the gods, that wax
ems some of the best and brightest of
his nature.

How Nature Provides
OUR BEAUTY, HEALTH AND
HAPPINESS.

Is It not possible II not probable that
elements necessary for the body-health
are contained in the native medicinal
roots found in the earth, digested in the
plant laboratory of nature and made
ready for man or animal?
The medicinal virtues Of many Amer
ican plants and roots were known to the
early Indians. Thus q root known to
modern physicians as Caulophyllum or
Blue Cohosh was known to the Indians
as rSquaw loot" Another, known to the
Indians as eRattleweed' root" Is used in
modern medicine as 0Cimicifuga.'
Prof. Kings American Dispensatory,
an authority in these matters, says: sour
Indians set high value on Rattleweed

Stocking Modes.

There is a decided change in stock
ings this year in that the plain mesh
has taken prominence over the lacy
openwork.
These plain stockings of silk or
thread are of the gauziest and finest
texture and are more often than not
quite plain. Still there are some beau
tiful embroidered designs, preferably
in delicate flower patterns in con-
trasting colors or in large fiat spots,

Stockings should match the shoes

WILD GEESE
Are Quite PlentifulI Near
Newstead.

Broussais Gregory has succeeded
Sam Owsley as the wild goose hunter
of the county, as Sam has gone to
Texas. Gregory says that there is a
flock of $50 or 800 geese giving him
and Emmett Caudle, near Newstead,
good deal of trouble. Every at
tempt at killing any of them had
been futile up to few days ago.
So wary are the fowls that they keep
out of range of a Winchester.
Gregory bought fifty steel traps and
baited them in hopes that he might
get some of them in that way. He
promised to report success, but as
he has not been heard from his latest
device was no doubt failure.

Wild Boar a Hard Fighter.

Tor sheer deviltry and insane feroc-
ity the boar stands pre-eminent and
for courage he has no equal among
animals. A wild boar charging has
been known to bring an elephant down
on its knees, and one we'll authen-
ticated fight is recorded between a
boar and full grown tiger in which
the boar more than held it's own.
Tigers have the greatest respect for
wild boars and treat them according
