HERE'S COMFORT FOR WOMEN
One Just as Beautiful as Another
Though Men May Not Accept
Doctrine.

Women with regular features,
peachcs-and-cream compIexions,
melting eyes and swanHko nccks
needn't plume themselves on their
beauty any longer. They are no
more beautiful than the woman with
q sluint and a double chin. M. Ro-
din, the sculptor, says so, At least
he says that every human being is
beautiful, one as much so as another.
Nature is never, under any circum-
stances ugly. H..
This is really very comforting,
but it will he a triAc hard on the
beauty doctor when women see the
light as NJ. Rodin has, for if pimples
and cross eyes are as lovely as
smooth skins and straight eyes nat
uraIly his or her occupation will be
gone. But think of the saving in
money to husbands! Think Of the
hoartburnings that will cease and
leave sweet peace in their place when
the woman who weighs 800 pounds
can proudly bcdcck herself and go
forth, knowing that she is every whit
as charming as the woman with a
g2-mch waist!
The only trouble will be in getting
the men to accept this doctrine, Men
have a ridiculous prediction for
cherry lips and stagclike carriage,
All literature proves this, from LIo-
mer to the records Of the last divorce
suit The masculine mind will have
to be changed considerably before a
man Will die for a woman with pale
eyes and a number seven foot as
ordcntly and joyously as for the
other kind,

which the prince had never had to

life, for when royalty says 81 ask. it

nearby came to my assistance and we both placed
the bear on nay horse and carried 1t over to the
camp where we skinned the pelt.
That evening we camped at 81 Remado, where
the coyotes were very plentiful but We did not
stop early enough to place our traps. We had
five well-trained hounds this trip The next
morning Louis killed fine specimen OF coyote
large, with fine fur and nice color. That evening
we entered "Cibolo" (Buffalo) canyon, which to
start with was quit shy of water. Just at the en-
trance it's awfully rough and very slow going, SO
rather than to take chances of breakdown we
decided to wait till morning and then get an
early start so we could make 1t through this pass
In one day That day we hunted both sides OF
the road for "tenaho" or pot holes which most
generally contain water If one can find one where
the cattle cannot reach. Luck was with us as we
found one OF these pots" the road which
had sufhcient water to water all the horses. The
balance of the distance we had to assist the wag-
on by the aid of the saddle horses" on account
Of bad roads and the grade was continually going

That morning Louis killed deer and the same
evening killed big black tail buck. very fat
and fine specimen We only made about ten
miles that day but were up early next morning
SO as to reach the water hole as the water ques'
ton was something serious and we had to arrange
our travelling accordingly. We passed through
grassy strip of about five miles where grass was
fine and green These grass strips seemed to be
all through these mountains suppose tne raius
must have fallen in streaks. We reached the
water hole and watered the teams and filled kegs.
After consultation we decided to return to the
grass to rest the horses and above all try and
get some black-tail deer. We reached this grass
about noon as It was only about three miles from
the watering place. That evening we did not
find the deer as expected but were still In good
spirits as our horses were doing nicely on the
green grass After deciding to go further into
the mountains as the Cerro Colorado Cred Noun

after deciding to move over to nearby canyon
we broke camp and rode about TWO miles further
where wood was plentiful and where we could
find large trees SO we could hang the oeer, as we
wanted to cure the meat.
Returning to camp next morning found some
more good news as Louis had located bear on TOP
of .Cerro Colorado" and had shot at him. but
being so far away did not hit him. This was
what we wanted--a bear chase with the dogs.
So back to camp came Louis and after consulta-
ton we decided to wait till morning before start

Things had begun to get interesting as the
dogs were getting nearer all the time and each Of

something that sounded like the exhaust OF an
automobile and he knew. just the moment he.
