stunts in. glass ball and clay pigeon shooting. OH foot and on horseback A bunch sof practically untamable bronchos test the daring and skill of the many rough riders with the show, audWsncidentally create a world of amusement, for the spectators. .Ursus, Picket, cowboy, not only successfully rides a bucking steer it Is announced but he also wrestles with the animal and throws it 10 the ground This is said to be scene with more thrills than laughs, for the long horns of the steer are sharp and more than once Picket has narrowly escaped being impaled on them. The cowboys and cowgirls giveya qnadriIle cn horseback they give exhibit ons of rough and fancy riding, and they il- lussrate, the humcr as we'll as dangers of ranch life. A company of cowboy clowns also win many spontaneous taught from the audience. As an ih- teresting contrast to the cowbiy method of rough riding there is a band of Cossacks, whose reckless aorsemansaip is described as exciting tin the extreme.
 An importan.t feature of the 101 Ranch is the great congress of In dians. There are representatives of the sioux, Cheyennes, Poncas, Coman- ches, Arrapahoes, Navajoes, and other tribes Among the braves are ac- com panied bystheir equaws, and there arc. several pappcoses in the party. The indian camp is said to be one of the most interesting sections of the Wild West enclosure. These h. dians as we'll as all the other char aeteristic people of the show will ap- pear in the street parade, which leave the exhibition grounds at 10:So o'clock and passes over the principal down 'tcwn streets.

The r6rnance of the old West. is giving way to the reality of the New Wes:. Rowing bands of wild Indians no longer attack the prairie schooner caravans, of the pioneers, and the bandits who formerly held, up the Dcadwcod cosch have adopted ! the more scientific methods of dynamit- ing .he express car on the limited mall. The old days, however, still have fascination for young and old, and 1t is this fact that makes the 1Ol Ranch Wild West Show possible. ln- terest in the sports and pastimes of the modern ranch is accentuated by the reproduction of scenes and incl den.s characteristic of pioneer days. !,
 Tae 1O1 Ranch Wild West Show, which will stretch is big canvas pa vilion in Pine Bluff the coming Tues day, Octozer 22, is credited with be- ing the most typical exhibition of the kind now before the public. The 0aow is development of the annual rclnGup formerly held on the Miller Brothers famous 101 ranch at Bliss. Oklahoma. Like the great cowboy congresses at Cheyenne and Pendel- ton, inc roundup at Bliss always at tracted Vest crowds and excited the interest of he public all over the country. It was a time for making records for roping in and for riding wild bronchos. It was dangerous sport, but It was typical of life on the cattle range. The 101 Ranch offers many of the champions of Bliss, Cheyenne, Pendelton and the recent Rodso in Los Angeles. Among them are said to be many of tho most ex- rert ropers and most daring rough riders .n the world. There are also many cowgirls with records as rough riders and crack rifle shots
 According to repute The 101 Ranch Z is d .how of infim.e variety. The old pioneer days are pictured by an at tack on a settlers camp by Indians and their repulse by cowboys ana scouts under the leadership of Jos eph c. Miller, the Oklahoma ranch man and Cattle king. the haldup of the stage coach by bandits; she cap 2 ture and punishment of a horse thief; the pony express, and buffalo hunt, in which genuine bisons are utilized.
 The life of today on the great cat tie ranch also has it's expression in me dangerous sports and daredevil feats Of the cowboys cowgirls and yaauer0s.

Seemn to me as long as the bridal couple are to make their home in the came town that would wait and give them your gift when they arrive, as it will save them packing it and bring ing back with them. However, it will be perfectly proper to send it to the bride before the wedding if you pre- fer.

It is supposed that the man in ques. tion will have a "den" of some de scription and there are number of things to provide which are useful az well ass ornamental. For instance, a bronze incense burner to hold cigar ashes, stunning metal desk set, a brass candlestick with a bayberry can. ole, a metal letter holder, book ends of wood or metal, framed sentiment, etc. In fact, there ia almost no limit to acceptable objects outside of the ever-present pillow. of which, like tea spoons for girl, there can never be too many"

It Is not necessary to say anything on the card. on the other hand, it is perfectly proper to do so. The words Sincere good wishes" or Hearty con- gratulations" seem to bring the donor into closer touch with the recipient, but as with all things, this Is mat ter of personal feeling. Dame Curt sey. has said time and again that an invitation to home wedding demand. ed an immediate acceptance" or Ire. gret" the same as for any social func. tioi at home.

use of Cuticura Soap and Ointment,
and in a few days noticed a marked
change. The eruption OF his cheeks
was almost healed, and his shoulders

old, all trace of the eczema was gone
During his teething period, his
head and face were broken out in
boils which l cured with Cuticura

keepinu the Children Amused.

A delightful way to amuse children,
and incidentally their parents, is by
illustrating a fairy story, the title OF
which is guessed by those watching
the performance.
Select a well-known story and al
vide it into short parts, or acts. linen
let the children act the various parts
in dumb show, using gestures without
speech. which are not hard to teach
very small children.
The idea is a good one for bazaar
or school entertainments, where a pub
lie performance can be the climax OF
several rehearsals.
II possible, dress the little actors IN
costume and let the performance De
given to the accompaniment OF sug
gestive music that will help them
make the right gestures at the proper
time. Without having to THINK o.
lines to recite, children learn posi-
tons and gestures very quickly.
