piled the girl in a hopeless tone. and
she leaned back listlessly against the
baobab as Blake swung himself up
frowning and sullen, and flung his
weapons from him.
BAH" he grumbled "I told You
that brute was a sneak I've chased
clean down to the pool and into the
open, and not a smell of him Mus
have hiked off into The tall grass the
minute he heard me"
If only he had gone off for good

Maybe he has; though you never

"One would fancy you could see

headache, and my back hurts l am

Blake looked him over critically,
and nodded. That's no lie, old man.
You're entitled to hospital check all

laundry bag. Then watch out for a
small, good-shaped wooden box with
cover. Tack on a pair of hinges made
Of strips of leather from an old shoe;
tack a tab of leather on to the front
edge to lift the cover by and you have
a convenient place to hold all the old
shoes. A ten-cent can of paint and a
ten-cent brush will give the box one
coat. New shoes should be on shoe
trees and stand in rows on the top
shelf. Every closet should be free from
clothes and ready for a Friday sweep
ing every day in the week. There is
just one thing that it is well to leave
on the floor, and this is folded piece
Of wooden blanket or cloth. Many have
anCe against moths. 1t attracts them,
traps them and saves the clothing 1t
should not be shaken out every week.
ToweIs-One mother of large fam
lily, although she had provided a tape
running lengthwise of the hem for
each and every towel, and has two
hooks for each member of the family
with his or her name neatly printed
and pasted above, yet there was occa-
siOnal friction as TO the questionable
ownership of a towel Without any
comment the mother neatly posted,
where all could read, a lettered line,
saying:
HONOR IN TOWELS is NOT TO BE
DESPISED
Nothing further was said and all
friction has ceased.
Old or Rancid Butter-Any amount
of old butter can be restored by pour
ing over it boiling water in proportion
of one gallon of water to the pound of
butter. Let the gallon of water boil
down 10 a quart. Pour both water and
butter into pan of ice-cold water, and
when all the butter has hardened, skim
it out, work out the wait r. salt 10 taste
and it is ready to either eat or be used
for cooking.
Marking Laundry-Collars and cuffs
go unmarked to the laundry, are mis-
sent, lost and the ownership ques-
toned because one does not get around
to buy and keep in a convenient pla
a new pen and a bottle of indelible ink.
Now, the initials or full name can
readily be lettered just above the back
buttOnhole in common, ordinary ink,
with the regular writing pen 1t stays,
does not run and is highly satisfactory.
One way Of getting the best of pro-
crastination and at the same time al
ways be sure of having your own col
lars. Mark the cuffs in the exact mid
die and the wrong side.

ANALYSIS of Good Temper.

The good temper is born in natures

skin. These are insensitive to change

of their emotions are usually on e

WALKED IN FROM MINE.

Late Christmas night Phil Conley and young Stewart walked into town having come some forty miles from the Green River Copper Mining company's property. They wanted a bit of the Christmas cheer, and were getting low on provisions. Kimball Pomeroy has been busy the past two days getting load of provisions for the mine, and planned to leave this morning. It is expected that Conley and Stewart will return with him. Conley says he has struck some wonderful new ore that is expected to assay much better than the last ore banned out, although that was very gratifying to the stockholders of the company.

CHIlDREN'S DANCE.

one of the prettiest of the Yuletide sights was the children's dance which was held in the Mesa opera house Sat urday afternoon. The bevy of bright little faces, with swaying forms and merry music made a scene that was more than pleasing to the eye. The lit tie tots thoroughly enjoyed the after noon. and under the able management of O. S. Stapley the affairs passed off most pleasantly There was a cute lit- tie program in between whiles, and the songs by Myrtle Noble and chorus, Ada Pomeroy and company were much ap- preciated. J. $. Donaldson also con- tributed an enjoyable banjo solo, and Elmer Johnson sang nicely. The music was furnished by Mir, and Mrs. Ellis Johnson. George Pryor and James Pas Sey.

CHRISTMAS SPORTS
 WERE WELL ATTENDED
The Money They Cost Bought a Load
 of Pleasure.

Christmas afternoon saw a huge crowd of pleasure lovers gathered at the lot in the rear of the Hilbert and Nets stable for the big program of sports which had been mapped out A subscription had been taken up among the Mesa business men for prizes, the list of which is given below The crowd joshed and cheered and was good natured, and the excitement ran high Several fast horses were entered, and the racing was fine It is reported that lot of money changed hands during the day.
 The list of events. with the results, includes the trotting race. which was won by the Hibbert and Nets horse in walk away. taking the first two heats easily. Johnson's horse came in second and George Dykes third. In the run ming race the Crismon horse was in the lead until the very last. when the Johnson horse came up and made home in fine style. Commodore Jassey, the Mesa jockey. rode for Johnson, and Jack Graham for Crismon The three eighths dash was won easily by John son in 35A seconds, and the horse came in ahead two feet.
 Probably the most interesting events were among the cowboys. The bronco, riding commenced early in the after noon, and the horses were up and coming. Fred Moore won the first prize of s20. giving a pretty exhibition, and Ott Porter came in a close sec ond, getting the second prize of s10. The flag picking contest was won by Ben Robbins. with the first prize of $lO and Lopez second. prize $5. The potato race was funny and excited roars of laughter.
