THE COWBOYS IDEA OF RELIC ON

A converted cowboy is report ed to have given this idea of what religion is: Lots of folks that would really like to do right think that servin' the Lord means shoutin' themselves hoars praisn' His name.
 Now l tell you how 1 look at that, I'm workin' here for Jim. Now if I'd sit around the house here telling what a good fellow Jim is, and sil gi ig songs to him and gettin' up in the night to ser- made him, I'd be doin' just what lots of c h is t i a n s do; but I wouldn't suit Jim, and I'd get fired mighty quick.
 But when l buckle oq ny straps and hustle among the his add sec that Jim's herd is al right and not suffelin' fo water and feed, or bein' off the rang e and branded by cattle thieves then Pm servin' Jim as he wants to be served. "-Selected.

NOT 4 BACHELOR GIRL" !"

Mir. Editor:-In your issue of June l3. we think Not A Bach elor" has said some things which are true, also that he has made some statements which he cannot prove. He says, among other things, that we have begged the whole question by telling how bad some men were, and advocat- ing that the girls be allowed to make "try, try again marriages. "
 In lookIing over our former articles we fail to find any state ment as to how bad some men were or where we advocate the girls be allowed to make try try, again marriages" We did say, and we repeat 'as long as We have our present marriage laws and the present interpretat- ion of them, must advocate the try, try again marriages. Mind you, we did not say for the girls. We asked you to read up or the origin of the family the excit- ing marriage laws and their ob- lect, any and everything that has atendency to throw light on the question in hand. What about begging the question? We have not tried to disprove any truth you have written but we have Wled to get you to see that the women or 'gentler sex are not wholly to blame for the present unpleasant harmonious conditi- onot the human race. Yes we Know you were taking the moth. CTS to task for the way they were .slslng their girls, but are the ooys any better raised? If she wants to give the men an article or two that is all right.
 Thank you br other, we see your Wlnt' now will you pull off your Oind bridle of superstition and preludlce and look at the situat- l0n Just as it is? Can you get sOur eyes focused so as to see 0'ner points? "The woman Thou saVest me" wasn't and is it no, wo pad that a woman was no, aaoe, such as man wanted? Is "no' finding fault with the crea- 'u'e also finding fault with the

laws, what about them? The why and wherefore of t h m please tell us.
 We should also like to know more of the Dorothy Dix" whom you say Mrs. Gilmer has assum- ed. When did she live and what was her work? We don't like to be ignorant of such people and their work.
 We agree with :you brother Steele, that we don't find many bachelor girls that are so from choice, or bachelors either"
 A celibate life is not a natural life and physicians tell us it is not productive of good, does not bring out the best that is in us. Celibacy is forced on our girls and boys by what? Please tell us. Also as it is of little use to see or know what is wrong with out trying to better conditions. It seems to me here is a practical suggestion. What is best for the race?
 Yours for all that is best for humanity.

creator! Wl1e nelpmeeC U, Lord! hasn't she been, and is she now an helpmeet to man? When he has said: Come let us do this or that, has she not said, Pm coming?" Has she not helped him to build insane -asylums, pri- sons and penitentiaries, saloons and houses of i'll fame? Hasn't she helped him fill them too with those whose birth took her to deaths door? When man has said:' woman give up thy son to go and shoot. or to be shot, by some other mothers son, she has said, Go and God bless you." When man has said, war is nec- essary evil, and we must have men to fight, the women have helped to furnish them. When men say there are necessary evils which must be licensed and we must have the girls of the land, the flowers of the flocks, are they not forth coming? Why was woman given reason and judge ment if she is only to obey?
 In the first article by Not a Bachelor" he says; these butter fly of society refuse to perform the duties of motherhood" Don't you think that is better so? If a child is to be born, it should be we'll born. Butterflies of society" male or female are not fitted for parents-hood. One writer remarked. and another says, truly so that there are not two marriages in thousand which realize the dreams of the finances.

tanned FOR some time Is truer than
the following article on "rhe Poor

II depends largely upon the boy
him eli. and not the conditions sur
rounding mis- birth, what he will be-
when he arrives at mans estate.
Almost every sketch Of the life OF
rich business man who has died IN

traced TO boys who had 70 struggle

man of influence and wealth.
Usually. fortunes thus % med
have a double value. because the pos
SCISSOR knows the pangs OF poverty
and can fully appreciate what a strus-
gle was necessary before lndepend-
ence became assured.
A poor boy today has as much Of a
chance. II not q better one. than the
boy had so or ~ years ago. The
great men who are now passing out
OF life look back to the time, when
they were boys and are impressed
with the brighter opportunities the
poor boy has today
Somewhere there Is chance for
every young, energetic and amhi-
tious boy. he will not ind that
chance by idlng away his time In
bad company, or by relying upon his
parents to support him. All youny
idlers should brace up. become ambi.
tious and go where their labor is
wanted
This should be remembered above
all things. The poor boy has the
