VILLA HOLDS UP
CATTLE EXPORTS

Gen 'Pancho" Villa IS peeved at cat
tlemen's associations on this side of
the line. He has issued an order that
no more cattle be exported from Chi
huahua unless written permission is
secured from him. Several recent
expectations of cattle made by the
"Constitutionalists have been held up
on American soil, IT is said in Juarez.
Villas agents have been selling Ter
Tazas cattle to American buyers ever
since the rebels secured control Of
Chihuahua. Once or twice after the
cattle reached Ell PasO, complaint was
made that stolen property was being
brought into the United States and
customs officials seized the stock.
Villa has the Impression that Ameri-
can cattemen's associations are block
ing him, and to retaliate, has issued
the order against expectation, hoping
To embarrass the cattle market here.

knew before she spoke that some
thing wonderful had happened to
Arnie just by the look on her face.
Strange, little book, what a beau
tifier happiness is. 1 don't believe l
ever saw a sad woman that thought
was beautiful.
OF course, l know that poets and
novel writers have given us splendid
descriptions of the loneliness of sor-
row and the exquisite imprint of its
beauty on the face.
However, like many other things
that are creations of the imagination,
we never find them in real life.
The Mater DoIOrosa" is beautiful
because it is always an artists con-
ception of the sOftening blur of grief
on beauty and so appeals to the
whole world, when in real life the
sad-eyed and deep-Ined face of
mother is usually only beautiful to
her own daughters and sons and
sometimes not even them.
On the other hand have never
seen a face that joy does not beau
tify and two of the most recent illus
trations of the theory are Annie and
Eliene.
Today Annie looked beautiful be-
cause she was happy and have new
er seen a more beautiful face than
was Eiene's when she bent over that
blessed bunch of babies.

OF what she had she has given her
best, and am glad that Tim has got
ten on the police force.
"Shure, Miss Margaret, I wish you
cud see my Tim in his uniform. He
is the very best looking man on the
force and Mr.. Sullivan, ye know Mr..
Sullivan, is ward boss-he's the man
who gives the picknicks every year.
1t was himself that got Tim his place.
He says that he'll put Tim on the
traffic squad. l just think it will be
mesilf that'u be proud. I'll bust when
l see Tim ridin' up and down on his
charger
Riding on what, Annie?"
We'll, ye see, Miss Margaret
shure forgot mesilf. In novels and
PONIES they say chargers when they
mean horses and sure it sounds so
grand that it came into my mouth
and flew out again when l thought of
how Tim would look.
why do you suppose, Miss Mar
garet, that those men and women
who write novels and thayter plays
make them sound so much better
than they'll ever be-"
Because they have a great mag
ination, Annie" I said. Those art
lists have talent or genius to see peO-
pie and things not in the imperfect
state they really are, but in the per-
feet form they might be-"
Perhaps, Miss Margaret" said
Annie thoughtfully, that is the rea-
son we women are so often disaD-
pointed with our men. We think of
them as perfectly all right and find
out that they are far from it, just
like we women are. I tell you, Miss
Margaret, I'm not going to find much
more fault with Tim. know he has
his eye on this policeman job and
couldn't see that he was workin' for
it even when he was drinkin' with
the boys in Grogan's saloon.
