COUNTESS CAN'T WEAR 'EM.
Attracts Undue Attention - Would
Hunt In Africa, but Fears Spiders.

Hunt In Africa, but Fears Spiders.
Los Angeles, Cal.-The Countess de
Lasteyrle, who was Miss Constance
Warren of New York and was married
to the count a short time ago, arrived
here from Catalina with her husband
very much out Of sorts because here
In the wild and woolly' west she
couldn't wear mems trousers while
hunting without attracting undue at
tention.
Il supposed she said, that there
was good deal of the frontier here In
the west, where civilization had not
reached, but am afraid l shall have
to go elsewhere to find place where
may wear mems clothes without be-
Ing too conspicuous"
She and the count will return to
Catalina and fish, hunt, boat, swim and
golf for awhile, and then they will go
up into the Rocky mountains in Colo
RADIO with pack mules carrying their
camp equipment and hunt.
The countess says she would go to
Africa and hunt elephants but for her
fear Of spiders.

Farmers are the decided pro-

the most independent man in socie-
ty has the fewest perplexities and
reverSes, and the greatest per cent
of success, the least cause for worry
and frettind. It is true that he may
worry predict draughts and many,
many disasters, do much to annoy
himself, if he chooses, but no one
has less occasion for such unrest
since no business is any surer of
yielding a fair return for any expen-
ditures of labor and general outlaws.
Yet how many turn and look with
longing eyes at the merchant and
almost envy him his calling, and

A Word of Advice for Young People.

We are sure the following beauti-
full lines from Louise M. Alcott will
be appreciated by the, readers of
this column. They were written
especially for the younger members
of the household, and when such a
noble character as hers speaks, it is
of great profit to listen and heed:
Dear young men and maids, let
one, who in the capacity of teacher,
nurse. friend or author has been
much behind the scenes for fifty
years assure you that the secret of
success lies with ourselves as men
and women now and in Gods good
time, as the fathers and mothers in
the coming generations. Boys, for
such l love to call to you, and such
most of you are till five and twen-
ty, set up a high standard and
never tire of trying to reach it.
Don't begin your day with a cigar
and end it in a theater, billiard
room or club. Keep innocency, for
in the end it shall profit thy soul
much and open the way of heaven
for thee. Never believe the perni-
'cious saying that young men must
sow wild oats
Girls, don't be in haste to wed.
Build up healthy bodies by good
food, plenty of exercise and sleep.
Learn all the household arts before
you attempt to make a home.
Above all, select your friends with
care. Avoid girls who live only for
fashion, filtration and enjoyment,
and use the privilege all women
may claim, to decline the acquaint-
ance of young men whose eyes will
not bear inspection by the innocent
eyes of women. Set your standard
high aud live up to it, sure that the
reward will come, here or hereafter,
and in the form best suited TO your
needs.

Is a Letter From Home.

Did you ever stop to think what
a ,great labor saver the home paper
is as communication with absent
friends? Write to me often" is the
last command the one breaking
away from home ties so often gives
to those left behind. In the rush
and hurry of every day very few
people now a days have time to de-
vote to correspondence of the leis-
urely kind the people of other days
kept up with such unvarying pune
tuality. And here is where the
home paper saves a world of
trouble. 1t is better than a letter,
too, for it contains much that a
letter would not. Items of interest
are in it that a writer of a letter
might not know or overlook. 1t is
wonderful how eagerly one devours
a home paper when stranger in a
strange land. Even the people you
do not know intimately while at
home, become of absorbing interest
to you when you read that they
have married. died or figured prom
inently in home affairs. If there is
some one of your family away from
home, try sending them this paper
regularly and see if they do not ap-
preciate the paper LaBelle Star.

Uncle John Pinches Again.

Uncle John D. Rocky is again
pinChing his ambitions competitors
who would help the common peo-
pie at the same time that they are
making a dollar or two themselves
which is incidentally taking it
away from your Uncle Johnnie, who
at the present time cannot give
away the income from his interest
account alone-and he don't be-
cause he wants to see the good old
round dollars roll into his grab bag;
by working the crude oil monopoly
of which he is IT.
The pinch arrives from the fact
that crude oil has been going up
steadily fer several weeks, until it
is now so cents barrel higher than
it was a few weeks ago, while the
price of refined oil has remained
practically at level.
Independent refners have been
complaining that they are forced to
pay such high prices for crude oil
that, being obliged to sell the refin-
ed product at no advance, they are
likely to be forced out of business
soon.
If there is any foundation for
these complaints. the conditions
that cause them are characteristic
of the Standard Oil company. This
can be recognized as a process that
would not incense the consumers,
as they would not Immediately feel
its effects, while at the same time
it would be a merCilesS method of
crushing out competition and put
ting the Standard company into full
command so that it may later re-
coup its neglected profit account by
boosting prices when it has relieved
itself OF competition.
1t does not increase the equanim-
ity of the consumer, either, To re-
