Hard Work, Indeed.

A young woman who pounds the
typewriter all day figures that her
hands travel about five miles during
her working hours. IF girl writes
the word 'then,'" she says, figure
how much ground she covers. TAX
ing the four letters in order, her
hands travel altogether distance Of
no less than Az inches. Suppose
that the word comes at the end of
a line. She raises her hand to shift
her paper up a notch and she has COW
cred inches raising her hand and
as much coming back to the space
bar. There are 14A inches Of mo-
tion just over the circumstance OF
writing word of four letters at the
end OF line. Studying the amount
OF travel done by the hands in the
course of an extended article written
by the typewriter, it runs up into
large fractions of miles in the course
Of the day. The forearms are kept
always at right angles to the upper
arm, and that throws a certain strain
on the biceps muscles. They and the
muscles OF the forearms ought to be
strengthened greatly by a course OF
typewriting, but this is the sort of eX-
ercise that is too near home, like
housework, sweeping and the like, to
be attractive"

How the President Plans to
Strengthen National Defense
From The Independent, New York
From The Independent, New York

~ The program of preparation for
the national defense set forth by
President Wilson is sane, moder-
ate and in copsonance with Amer
ican spirit and American tradi-
tions. The president recognizes
to the full the incontestab fact
that the AmerIcan people bate
the very thought of militarism
and that they would prefer al
most any risk to the esta blish-
ment of great standing army
on the European scale or to any
form of compulsory military SER
vice. But he realizes no less
fully that our present PREPARATION
on the military side is not COM
mensurate with our national re-
sponsibilities. He proposes there
fore, that we shall adopt a more
comprehensive plan of national
defense than we have been
working upon in the past-but
that we shall not lose our heads
about it or jump from the frying
pun into the fire.
The President reminds the ma
tion that the navy has ever been
and must ever be it's first and
chief line of defense. That navy
is already great and efficient
force. 1t only needs that it's de-
velopment along the lines al
ready followed should be some-
what FASTENED. and that def
mite policy Of development mot
made from year to year, but

miles away, out OF the reach Of even
good roads. He had little but his out
tit and few cherished belongings.
There was his cornet, for he was
something Of musician; his artists
case, few favorite books.
1t was at Cross Cut Gully that he
found himself clear out of funds.
Good fortune, however, stepped in and
saved the day. a rugged, half-tipsy
miner discovered him Willing away a
lonely hour near the edge of stream,
discoursing some old familiar tunes on
his cornet

Arden heartily. See here" and he
drew out a buckskin bag. 1t was
filled with nuggets.
How much to give us some patri-
otto and dance music up at the
Gulch?' was his next ready challenge.
I'll do it for good meal" replied
Arden accommodatingly.
But you WON'T" dissented his new
acquaintance. Here. and here, and
there" and Arden's eyes sparkled as
nearly three ounces of dust was
pourcU INTO MS palm.
They meant new life for the penni-
less wanderer; they helped him on
his way, as far as Quartzville Here

Mixing with the crowd, Arden was
robbed of what was left of his
stake"
His funds ran so low that he re-
nDintnH a IN f,ya InI1
One of the habitues Of the place came
across him thus engaged. He was a
rough card-playing rustler, and
was promptly seized with an idea.
Can you paint picters, too?" he in
quired
You mean portraits?" asked Ar
den
That's it. l want one done. When
you're through with that sign, come
inside and ask for Broncho Jim
This Arden did. He found his pros
pective client in duly hilarious state,
with wealth of poker chips at his
elbow. Broncho Jim passed him over
a mint slab, validated for half a hun
dred.
Double that when you get her
done" was the announcement.
"Her-whom?" asked Arden won
deringly.
"Ziatina, down at the circus. She's
no use for me, but I've hit the fancy
that I'd like her picter. Make 1t big,
and lots of color in it. Take mel"
Il think l do assented Arden, and
set out on his queer mission
Ziatina was a popular name at the
little settlement just then. She was
half-breed. graceful as a gazelle,
with great black eyes and willowy
form. Size was the star of the show,
and her appearance in a sketch bring
ing in scouts, cowboys and the usual
personnel OF a frontier drama, car
rled the very poor rest of the daily
tent entertainment
She had been toasted and cheered
and made love to by the rude rustlers
and miners, but she was as stone, as
Ice to fulsome praise, and in her for
bidding eyes there was ever a far
away glow, as though her thoughts
were with some dusky lover she could
not forget.
Arden sketched Ziatina, unnoticed,
In one OF her most graceful poses.
He made studio for two days OF his
little, obscure room at the settlement

somewhat forid, but very recogniza-
bic portrait OF the star OF the circus.
Arden went after Jim. He had not
mounted the canvas, but carried it
on roller. He sought out Jim at
his usual haunts.
He's gone" was the report he got
from the proprietor of the principal
gaming place of the settlement.
GONE, when? Where?" questioned
the disappointed Arden.
Last night-cleaned out, and made
for the mines to get new stake"
Arden took the portrait back to his
room, and showed it in his kit, and for
got all about it.
He had money enough as it was to
buy horse, but he made the mistake
of starting off on the trail alone and
unguided He blundered in following
1t, got lost In a desolate wilderness.
For six days he had no sight of habi-
tation or human being. The morning
of the seventh he was awakened from
a sound sleep on bed of green in a
ravine to the accompaniment of saw
age yells.
Half-a-doZen dusky warriors sur
rounced him. Their fierceness was
emphasized by the way in which they
brandished knives, rifles and toma-
hawks at him. His horse had been
appropriated by one savage, another
was ransacking his travelling kit.
His despoiler passed around to his
comrades article after article. Final
ly he came to the rolled-up portrait.
1t came loose in his hand, and he
stared agape at the picture Of the half
breed circus star.
Arden had noticed stalwart young
brave who seemed to be the leader of
the party. He had a certain princely
and dignified mien and took no part
in the pilfering going on. Just at
this Juncture, however, as two of the
savages, in turn, with mocking laugh
ter drew each knife and poised it
for fling, as if to see how near they
could Craze the ear of the bound and
helpless Arden, this young Indian
rushed forward with tumultuous
cry.
He halted the two sanguinary
braves with gesture. He snatched
the portrait from the hand Of the man
who held it. He stared at it, his face
betraying the most sentient emotions.
He waved his companions away, he
relaxed the bonds securing Arden
Then in an animated pantomime he
pointed at the portrait he crossed his
hands upon his heart as though seek
ing to express mute vivid alteration
for the fair half-breed girl it counter
feited.
Not word of his jargon could Ar
den understand, but he guessed out
the riddle from the expressive panto.
mime Of the young brave. Ziatina had
been his love, they had Quarreled, he
had sought her vainly.
If Arden could lead him to the van
ished girl he should be enriched, and
the young chief led him from the spot
into deep cave and showed him q
vast treasure house of gold gathered
up by the tribe for their leader. He
summoned a member of his tribe. A
horse was brought. Two stout buck
skin bags were filed with gold and
slung across the back of the animal.
"Ziatina,' he said simply, indicating
that If Arden should lead him to his
lost love the gold should be his.
Arden Vaile's eyes brightened-they
expressed more than hope and cour-
age-assurance positive. For to find
Ziatina was an easy task, and the re-
ward for the same meant the start
of fortune, and, therefore, Bettina.
