strawberry culture. Behind the cot
tage was a garden of which he made
strawberry patch.
When his strawberries were begin
ming to ripen Dry Valley bought the
heaviest buggy whip in the Santa Rosa
store.
In the house next to Dry Valleys
lived a widow with pack of children
that gave the hnsbandman frequent
anxious misgivings In the woman
there was strain of the Spanish
She had welded one of the name of
O'Brien.
Between the two homesteads ran
crazy picket fence overgrown with
morning glory and wild gourd vines
Often he could see little heads with
mops of black hair and flashing dark
eyes lodging in and out between the
pickets. keeping tabs on the reddening
berries.
Late one afternoon Dry Valley went
to the postof1ce. When he came back,
like Mother Hubbard. be found the
deuce to pay. The descendants Of Ibe-
rian bandits and Hibernian cattle raid
ers had swooped down upon his straw
berry patch.
Dry Valley slipped into the house,
got his whip and charged the marau-
ders. The lash curled about the legs
Of the nearest, greedy tenyear-old,
before they knew they were discover
ed. His screech gave warning, and
the flock scampered for the fence like
d drove of javelis flushed in the chapar-
raj. Dry Valleys whip drew toll of
two more elfin shrieks before they
dived through the vine clad fence.
Dry Valley, less feet, followed them
nearly to the pickets. Checking his
useless pursuit. he rounded a bush,
dropped his whip and stood, voiceless.
motionless, the capacity Of his powers
consumed by the act of breathing and
preserving the perpendicular.
Behind the bush stood Panchita
01Brien, seorning to fly. She was nine
teen, the oldest OF the raiders. Her
night black hair was gathered back in
wild mass and tied with scarlet
ribbon. she stood with reluctant feet,
yet nearer the brook than to the river,
for childhood had environed and de-
tanned her.
She looked at Dry Valley Johnson
for moment with magnificent inso-
lenee and before his eyes slowly
crunched luscious berry between her
white teeth. Then she turned and
walked slowly to the fence with q
swaying, conscious motion, such as a
duchess might make use Of IN leading
a promenade. There she turned again
and grilled Dry Valley Johnson once
more in the dark fiame Of her auda-
eious eyes. laughed a tribe schoolgirl
ishly and twisted herself with panther
ISL quickness between the pickets to
the O'Brien side of the gourd vine.
Dry Valley picked up his whip and
went into his house He stumbled as
he went up the two wooden steps. The
old Mexican woman who cooked his
meals and swept his house called him
to supper as he went through the
rooms. Dry Valley went on, stumbled
down the front steps, out the gate and
down the road into mesquite tiiclxet

GOVERNOR SANDERS.

Il has been announced from Baton
Rouge that Governor Sanders has de-
ternlined on declining the United States
senatorship and in continuing in Office
as the Executive Of the State, which IS
not surprising
In the issue Of the Caucasian of Sun
day. August II. in an editorial review
# was stated that Governor Sanders
probably would resign the United States
Senatorship and continue in the direct
Political control Of the State TO the end
Of his term Il was also intiinated that
Governor Sanders would become a can
didate before the people at the primary
election for the nomination of a United
States Senator.
iii assuming this attitude it was reas-
enable to conclude that the scheme Of
Larnhremont and other politicians would
be upset.
Il would seem that this political fore
east il about to be verified, and there IS
substantial reason for it.
While Lambremont and his allies
have been insisting that Governor San
ders should resign the goyernorship, the
Caucasian has made it plain that Gov
erncr Sanders could continue in Office
until Congress convened, when it would
BE time sufficient for him to resign. 1t
Was pointed out that Governor Hughes

All associate justice of the Supreme
Court. Of the United States. he would
continue as the Executive of his State
untif be had qualified and entered into
tie exercise Of his duties in connection

This development may be traced to
aulbremont, who. perhaps, would not
agree to be muzzled, and if invested

Baby Wasted to q Skeleton.

MY little son, when about year
and half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. l had a physi-
clan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come out
on his arms, then on other parts OF
his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then |
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end of about
year and a half of suffering he grew
so bad that l had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk.
MY aunt advised me to try Cuti-
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment |
sent to drug store and got cake of
Cuticura Soap and a box of the Oint-
ment and followed directions At the
end of two months the sores were all
well. He has never had any sores Of
any kind since. l can sincerely say
that only for Cuticura my child would
have died I used only one cake Of
Cuticura Soap and about three boxes
of Ointment
Il am nurse and my profession
brings me into many different fam
lilies and it is always a pleasure for
me to tell my story and recommend

MOUNTAIN SICKNESS.
Its Strange Manifestations in the High
lands Of Peru.


vt meeting Of the Medical society of
Berlin. Dr kuochc gave on account of
his experiences and observations in re-
gard to mountain sickness during his So
iouru among the heights of the Cordil-
lerns of Peru.
lie suggests that the ideas acquired
from Alpine experiences in regard to the
pathology of mountain sickness are very
imperfect. Ia Peru and Bolivia attacks
known as "hOuna" OF "sirrochc" are as
Crlbed by the natives TO certain condi-
tons other than simple altitude. Mule
drivers avoid paths because they are
haunted by hpuna, and again certain
valleys arc known for the frequent oc-
Currencc of sirroche. In one such valley
the whole of the authors caravan was
affected 10y the complaint. In La paZ,
the capital Of Boilyln, certain streets are
known for the number of cases of this
mnlndy which occur there.
Slrrucha consists in n condition of
nervous eNcitation II is not due to
deficiency of oxygen. as IT may occur after
a descent of 5000 meters. II does not APP
pear to depend upon muscular fatigue, as
it is especially liable to appear in the
night and disappear during the day.
1t may be accompanied by hemor-
rhages, which may attain to a dangerous
degree. The author makes the interest
ing suggestion that the cause of this af-
lection may he of an electric nature, such
rs electric discharges IN the air. In sup
port of this hypothesis he points out that
the conditions fayor,ug the accumulation
of electricity are just those which predis-
pose 20 the occurrence of this affection;

Hints About the uOuSc.

Green vegetables are best cooked IL
open vessels to save the color.
To give richer flavor to the roast.
basic it with drippings instead Of
water.
A piece of ham bone added to vege>
table or soup stock will improve the
flavor.
Candles will last much longer if they
are kept on ice twenty-four hours be-
fore using.
When soaking mackerel or other salt
fish see that the skin side is placed
uppermost,
Turn the wooden chopping bowl up
side down when not in use and it will
never split.
To cure the sting of a wasp or bee,
mix common earth with water and
apply at once.
To let vines climb up on wooden
walls will seriously damage them, as
it promotes decay.
When making sweet croquettes add
n little sugar to the crumbs in which
the croquettes are to be rolled.
Stains may be removed from tinware
by securing with common soda, then
washing thoroughly and drying.
Lemons hardened from long stand
ing may be made disable by covering
few moments with boiling water.
Pans creased with butter will make
the bottom crust Of pies soft and haky
and prevent them from being soggy.
Celery can be much improved by
soaking It for an hour in ice-cold water
in which lemon has been squeezed.
To clean a copper kettle, rub it with
powdered bath brick and parafnn and
polish with dry brick dust or whiting.
To remove paint from linens rub
with turpentine, then clean with
French chalk dampened with alcohol.
Mend broken china with plaster of
paris mixed with the white of egg and
it will stand washing. This method is
suitable for articles of everyday use,
not for valuable old china.
Cream to be whipped must be one
day old. No sugar should be added
either before or after it is beaten. The
sweetening should be in the pudding
or cake with which it is served.
All cups and jugs should occasion
ally be scrubbed round the handles
with a well-soaped brush. If this IL
not done they are apt 30 get a grimy
appearance that is anything but appe-
tizing,
To clean and tighten cane chair seats
turn the chair upside down, and with
hot water sponge the cane work till It
is thoroughly soaked. II the cane be
dirty use little soap. Let dry in the
air or before a fire. and II the cane be
merely stretched-not worn-it will
then be as good as new.
White lead makes capital cement
for broken crockery. Paint it along
the broken edges, then press the pieces
together and tie them in place. Leave
the mended article to dry for two or
three days, and when thoroughly dry
II will be as strong as ever. though
perhaps not so ornamental.
