AndaIusian Girls.

Despite their attractions Andalusian
girls only marry after very long en-
Gagements, sometimes lasting ten
pears. One girl who has been engag-
ed four years has a lover who comes
from a distance twice a year to see
her, and yet he has never once men
toned matrimony. He lives with his
mother and no doubt keeps her, for
Spanish mothers have great influence
over their sons. When at last a mar
riage takes place the bride has often
TO reside with her mother-in-law. TO
whom custom requires her to be most
subservient Extremely devoted to
their own mothers, Andalusian girls
are in no hurry TO marry should their
doing so require them to live at any
distance from their old home. On the
other hand, they do not appreciate
having 10 wait ten years, but. as they
say, 'No hay remedio" there is no

INFLUENCE OF SALT WATER
II Induces Some to Drink, Others to

When riding on the harbor steam

BILE remarks of your neighbor 1t will
be possible to pick up more inaccurate
information than in any other place In

human mind. II 1t does not know. It
will risk a guess, and the wilder the
guess the more willingly risked.
It is well known that salt water acts
In freakish ways on the conscience. To

a disposition to the frseest use Of pro.

He Staked His Herd.

Many stories Of big poker games
among the western cattlemen In the
early days have been told. but the
story Of the game with probably the
greatest stakes is here printed for
the first time. Two well-known cat
tlemen of southwestern Kansas start
ed to move their herds to the pas
lures of Wyoming. Each herd con-
tanned more than a thousand head OF
cattle. When they came to the
crossing Of the Arkansas river near
Coolidge they found flood on.
They were unable to cross for two or
three days. To while away the time
the two men engaged in q poker game.
When tho food finally subsidized % that
the cattle could proceed one OF the
oattlemen said to his son. who was
helping to drive: "Just turn my herd
over to eur nsighbor and we win 90
back home" He had bet and lost not
only oil the money he had, but al Of
the herd Of cattle.
