n Call for Help.


The family of julius Coe, of
Campo, who died two months
ago, is very much in need of
clothing. IT consists of the
mother and four children-a boy
10 years old, II girl seven, and
two girls aged four and two, all
good size of their age.
The allowance they have is
barely sufficient to buy their
groceries. They have no rela-
tives with means TO help them.
Mis-. Coe wants to remain and
acquire the homestead.
Will not some of the kin d peo-
pie of Baca county, WHO were so
liberal in the Nidey case, help
this equally needy and deserv-
ing family with clothing for the
children TO keep them warm dur
ing the winter? Many families
have garments Which their own
children have out-grown Send
them to Mrs. IMra Coe of Cam
po, and they will be thankfully
received, aud the givers will be
blessed.

Whether or not we believe that cold
baths have virtues which hot baths
can never possess, it is far better to
preach the most advanced gospel of
cleanliness than none at ALL The per
son who bathes frequently is clean
er person both physically and mentally
than he who does not. and If our de-
sire is today to bring about higher
morale among the people at large let
us not cavil at Il soap because forsooth
1t may be little too strong in alkali.
or at large quantities of water, even
though applied to the body oftener
than once day. For let no one think
for moment that human nature is so
smitten with the idea to keep clean
that 1t will ever have a maddening de
sire to use too much soap or water

a Vanished Ocean.

In the tertiary period the geograph-
ical contiguration of the globe was
steadily approaching that of the pres
ent day. The same holds true for the
faunal aspect and the climate was
verging on the glacial period. 1t was
at this time the great equatorial ocean.
''Tethys." existed still. and there is ev-
idence that East India and Africa,
Australia and Asia, north Europe and
North America We're united by land
connections. In the latter part Of the
period the ocean "Tethys" gave place
to mountainous formations, such as
the Alps, Himalayas and Carpathians,
through the folding up of the crust Of
the sea. At the same time there We're
enormous outpourings of volcanic ma
terials. Snakes and true birds ad-
vanced rapidly toward their modern
position in this period, which was
characterized also by the maximum
expansion of mammals taking the
place of the great saurians.-New York

An Old lime Scotch Sunday.

The sixteenth century practice of the
elders in Scotland of going the rounds
to pick up offenders against Sunday
rules survived until the eighteenth CEN
tury. Mr. Thomsan in his "Weavers
Craft" gives details of the bag"
"The minister himself would make the
rounds to spy with his own eyes the
sins of the absentees. Here one man
is found romping with his BARNS, an
other detected kissing his wife, two
men were found drinking ale and one
was found with his coat Off, as if he
were going to work. and still another
was seen eating hearty dinner. All
were pulled up before the session Of
the kirk and 'repentences' enforced
upon each" And now one can under
stand the wherefore of the drawn
blind on the Sabbath which struck
James Payn as astonishing in the
Edinburgh of the sixties. - London

Significance Of Little Thira..

We love little things. we hate little
things, we fear little things. Our
lives are knit up with little thinge
from the time we are born to the day
we die.
Big things draw us up to heaven or
crush us down to hades. Little things
live beside us on the earth, eat and
sleep with us, laugh and grumble with
us. catch the early train with us or
make us miss 1t, irritate and appease
us-never leave us alone for minute.
That is why they are so much more
important than the big things-the
things that come only once in way,
at long intervals. and even then are
nearly always the result of hundred
and one little things combined.
To be crushed by large misadven-
ture is natural, but TO fall a victim to
a series of petty misfortunes is hu-
initiating. There are many who would
prefer to break their necks once and
for all by falling off mountain than
TO bruise their whole bodies and dis
locate their tempers by the daily stum-
bling over molehill. 1t is the little
things that count The satisfaction of
climbing Mount Olympus is poor sort
of attainment II the scores and scores
Of pleasant details which wait upon
success be absent.-Atlantic.
