JUST A MATTER OF WEATHER

Last winter the residences OF this
section did a lot OF complaining c
the weather. We certainly did have
a share Of the rough, but wnen com
pared with the ice-clad section OF the
middle West and Far East it was a
trihe. This winter was voted bad
nough and the long delayed spring
was discouraging. One only has 10

Where there isn't heat piostrations
there is the deadly cyclone or tor
nado. and often the two are conlbm
ed. Nevada knows nothing OF this
class Of weather. VIZ have heat anu
cold, but it is moderate i'll its distrl-
bu,ion. The man i'll the hay held
complains oil heat but there are no
prostrations. The sun shines here
more days in the year than any other
section OH the globe and there Is
less loss of lie than any place. 1t
would appear that the Nevadan sim
ply gets up and kicks because he has
plenty OF lie in him. The kicks reg
lister no good but it is believed that
the Nevadan would complain II ne
were invited i'll Paradise. He would
probably want some Nevada climate
and a sprig OF sagebrush.

the drawbacks to travel in Arabia,
insula. Only the hem of Arabia is
known Alden, Mecca and Muscat are
probably the only place-names that
the majority of people connect with
Arabia.
Arabia, one of the few countries left
of the explorer, holds out that great
est of all attractions to the adven-
turer-the hostility Of the inhabitants
Ice barriers guard the pole, fevers and
swamps long held Central Africa i'm
pregnable, but added to the natural
difficulties of Arabian travel is the
determination of it's inhabitants to
keep out strangers. 1t is as "for-
bidden' a land as ever Tibet was.
Indeed, it offers to the traveller the
miximum of danger and discomfort
and the minimum of reward.
Over the immense area of desert
only one form of existence is possible
-non1adism. In Arabia, the barren
est of all countries on earth, nomad
ism is found in its purest form. In
such a land of nakedness man can
only exist by constantly changing his
abode and seeking pasture for his
flock in different localities. Two
thirds of the population of Arabia is
nomadic. A scarcity of water and
lack of fodder, variable rainfall and
therefore a changing pasturage, forces
a nomadic life on the inhabitants of
these barren lands.
In Arabia Nature seems to show
herself in her most cruel form. Sand
deserts of the most utter desolat1on,
mountains of black lava and red sand
stone, and horrid volcanic tracts most
difficult to travel over are the chief
features of Arabian scenery. The
fact that the whole peninsula is lack
ing in flowing water, coupled with the
poorness of the vegetation, rem
ders the conditions of life difficult in
the extreme. The nomads existence

SYNOPSIS.

James Wilson or Jimmy as he Is called
by his friends. Jimmy was rotund and
looked shorter than he really was. His
ambition in life was to be taken seriously
out people steadily refused to do SO, his
art is considered a huge joke. except to
himself. If he asked people to dinner ev-
eryone expected frolic. Jimmy marries
Bella Knowles; they live together a year
and are divorced. Jimmy's friends ar
range to celebrate the first anniversary
when Jimmy receives telegram from his
Aunt Selma, who will arrive in four hours
to visit him and his wife. Jimmy gets his
funds from Aunt Selma and after he mar
lects to tell her of his divorce. Jimmy
takes Kit into his confidence, he tries to
devise some way SO that his aunt will not
learn that he has no longer wife. He
suggests that Kit play the hostess for one
night, be Mrs Wilson pro tenn. Aunt Sc
lima arrives and the deception works out
as planned. Jim's Jap servant is taken
Ill. Bella, Jimmy's divorced wife, enters
the house and asks Kit who is being ta-
ken away in the ambulance? Bella insists
It Is Jim. Kit tells her Jim is we'll and is
in the house. Bella tells Kit 1t wasn't
Jim she wanted to see, but Takahira, the
Jap servant. HARRISON steps out on the
porch and discovers man tacking
PLANTATION. The man points to the placard
and HARRISON sees the word SMALLPOX"
printed on it. The guests suddenly realize
their predicament, the women shed tears,
son pleads with Kit to tell him the real
situation Of things. She finally tells him
Of Bella's incarceration in the basement.
The all important question arises as to
who is to prepare the, meals and perform
the other household duties: HARRISON fin
ally solves the matter. He writes out
slips containing the various departments
OF his or her duties

at that, Mrs. Wilson. / didn't fight
bacilli with boiled water at Chicka-
mauga for nothing"
And then he let out the policeman
and brought him into the kitchen. He
was large man, and his face was a
curious mixture of amazement, alarm
and dignity. No doubt we did look
queer, still in parts Of our evening
clothes and l in the white silk lace
petticoat that belonged under my
gown, with a yellow and black pa
Jana coat Of Jimmy's as sort of

"This is officer Flanagan" Mr..
HARRISON said. II explained our un-
fortunate position earlier in the morn
ing, and he is prepared to accept our
hospitality Flanagan, every person
in this house has got to work, as I
also explained to you. You are ap-
pointed dish-washer and scullery
maid"
The policeman looked dazed. Then,
slowly, like dawn over a sleeping
lake, light of comprehension grew
in his face.
Sure" he said, laying his helmet
on the table ':Ill be glad to be doing
anything I can to help. Me and Mrs.
Wilson-we used to be friends. It's
many the time I've opened the car
riage door for her, and she with her
head in the air, and for all that, the
pleasant smile. When any one around
her was having a party and wanted
special officer, 1t was Mrs. Wilson that
always said, Get Flanagan, officer
Timothy Flanagan. He's your man. "
My heart had been going lower and
lower. So he knew Bella, and he
knew was not Bella, although he had
not grasped the fact that was usurp-
ing her place. And the odious Harbi-
son man sat on the table and swung
his feet

looking around him, how good 1t is
to see white woman so perfectly at
home in a civilized kitchen again,
after two years Of food cooked by
filthy Indian squaw over a portable
sheet-iron stove!"
So perfectly at home! l stood in
the middle Of the room and stared
around at the copper things hanging
up and the rows Of blue and white
crockery, and the dozens and hun
dreds of complicated-looking utensils,
whose names 1 had never even heard,
and I was dazed. I tried with some
show Of authority to instruct Flanni-
gan about gathering up the soiled
things, and, after listening in puzzled
silence for minute, he stripped off
his blue coat with tolerant smile.

A non and a Bum.

In a vacant lot at the corner Of
Eleventh and Larimer streets was an
old white dog that wasn't well. He
crawled over near billboard and lay
down. Lots of people saw him, but
nobody paid any attention to him un-
til trampish-loohng fellow came
along. He was Hard Times" per-
sonified. He went over and petted
the dog.
Whats the matter, old boy7" he
asked "Sick?"
The dog seemed to appreciate the
uncouth ones attentions. The man
petted him little more.
wait, I'll get you drink" he said.
He went to saloon near by and
returned with a tin basin full of wa
ter. The dog Tapped up some of the
water and the man poured the rest
on the animals head. In a couple of
minutes more the dog arose and slow
ly walked away, wagging his tail. He
was much better.

penomlnationaI Puzzle.

The wife of a prominent Unitarian
clergyman is still wondering what her
cook meant She was new cook, and
there was every reason to believe she
was a good cook. At any rate, she
had unquestionably served in good
families, and she brought the best OF
references. Nevertheless, her new
mistress did not hesitate to give her
a few instructions.
Zone thing I want you to remem-
Ter, Nellie" said she, 'is the way we
1 e our oatmeal. Don't leave 1t wa
terry. But we don't like it hard and
dry, either"

cook, confidently. "I'll get it right,

part of sandy deserts, only broken
or an isolated oasis.
The Sahara, Arabia, Eastern Per
sia, Turkestan and Mongolia are the
connecting links in this great desert
zone. The occurrence of such names
at Nafud, which means exhausted"
Robi ell Khali-'the abode of empti-
ness" and Cobb or Shamo-"the void"
conveys to the mind only too clearly
the character and climate of these
regions.
Of these desert countries Arabia is
the least known, and, therefore, the
most interesting. Few people realize
that Arabia, the great desert PENN
sula, though situated so close to the
western world, is still practically ter
ra incognita." 1t is to all intents and
purposes a closed country, for few
travellers have attempted to penetrate
it's deserts, and still fewer have sue
ceeded. The center of Arabia has
been called "a lions den," and it is
certainly easier to get into than to
get out of.
For a quarter of century Arabia
has been passed by and entirely neg
lected by explorers. This is not be-
cause Arabia is without interest, or
that it Is all a hopeless waste of sand,
possessing neither inhabitants, trade,
nor history, but simply because it is
such a difficult country to travel in.
On all sides Arabia presents hostile,
forbidding fact to the traveller. Fana-
ticism, pirate-haunted coasts, and
waterless, robber-infested deserts are

The miss" passed unnoticed 'T
mayn't give 'em a Turkish bath, which
is what you are describin', but I'll get
the grease off all right. 1 always
clean up while the missus is in bed
with young 'un."
He rolled up his sleeves, found
brown checked gingham apron behind
the door, and tied it around his neck
with the ease Of practise. Then he
cleared off the plates, eating what
appealed to him as he did so, and
stopping now and again for a deep
throated chuckle
I'm thinkin'," he said once, stop
ping with a dish in the air. what a
deuce of a noise there will be when
the vaccination doctor comes around
this mornin'. In week every one of
us will be nursin' sore arm or walk
in on one leg, beggin' your pardon,
miss The last time the force was
vaccinated, I asked to be done be-
hind me ear; l needed me legs and
needed me arms, but didn't need me
head much!"
He threw his head back and laugh
ed. Mr. HARRISON laughed too. Oh,
we were very cheerful! And that aw-
full stove stared at me, and the kettle
began to hum, and Aunt Selma sent
down word that she was not we'll, and
would like some omelet on her tray.
| Omelet!
l knew that 1t was made of eggs,
but that was the extent of my knowl-
edge 1 muttered an excuse and ran
| upstairs to Anne, but she was still
shifting over her necklace, and said
she didn't know anything about
omelets and didn't care. Food would
choke her. Neither of the Mercer
girls knew either, and Bella, who was
still reading in the den, absolutely de-
clined to help.
II don't know, and l wouldn't tell
you If 1 did. You can get yourself
out, as you got yourself in," she said
nastily. "The simplest thing, If you
don't mind my suggesting it, is to
poison the coffee and kill the lot of US.
Only, If you decide to do 1t, let me
know; l want to live just long enough
| to see Jimmy Wilson writhe!"
| Bella is the kind Of person who gets
on ones nerves. She finds a grtev-
ance and hugs it; she does ridiculous
things and blames other people. And
/ she f1irts.
