TaIe of the Lordsburg DoIIar

worn, perhaps, but still useful for
being in circulation. | am no to-
mato-can dOllar-not l. Lordsburg
is only my adopted home, but l
like it and hope to remain perman-
emily. When / came out of the
mint l was adopted by a town like
Lordsburg in another state. But,
after a time, I was sent off to a
big city, many miles away. l
turned up in a mail-order house.
For several years / stayed in that
city. Millionaires bought cigars
with me. / didn't like that, for l
believe in plain people.
"Finally a travelling man
brought me to this town and left
me here. was so glad to get back
to q smaller town that | was de-
termined to make a desperate Ell
fort to stay. One day a citizen
was about to send me back to the
big city. Icaught him looking over
a mail order catalogue. Suddenly
! found my voice and said to him:
"'Look here: if you let me stay
in this town Til circulate around
and do you a lot Of good. You
buy a big beefsteak with me, and
the butcher will buy groceries, and
the grocer will buy hardware, and
the hardware man will pay his
doctor bill with me, and the doctor
will spend me with q farmer for
oats to feed his horse with, and the
farmer will buy some fresh meat
from the butcher, who will come
around to the dentist to get his
tooth mended. In the long run,
as you see, I'll be more useful to
you here at home than if you send
me away forever
"The man said it was a mighty
stiff argument. He hadn't looked
at it in. that light before, so he
went and bought the beefsteak.
and l began to circulate around
home again. Now, Just suppose
all the other dollars that are sent
to Chicago or some other big city
were kept circulating right here
at home-you could see the town
grow. Honest, now, amt right?'

Held up While Drumming

Three young men of this city
went to Council Bluffs yester.
day and decided to bum home
last evening. They got on top
of the freight cars and were
enjoying the fresh air about
eleven O'clock last night when
they were astonished tosee two
guns pointed directly at their
various noses and held in the
hands Of two determined look
ing men Of course they lost
no time in obeying all the COM
mands of tire two aforesaid
gentlemen and all were proper
ly and thoroughly frisked. Very
little money was secured from
the boys and they settled down
to talk it over when they saw
the two men coming back again
through the darkness. They
immediately started a hot foot
for the caboose but when they
got there only two boys report
ed in place of three so WI
Love and was reached the train
was searched but the third boy
was not to be found 80 the con-
clnsion was reached that he had
fallen eff and had probably
been ground to pieces. Word
was telephoned to the Valley
and a searching party immedi-
ately started out but in about
half an hour the boy came walk
irg into Loveland and reported
that he had lost his footing and
had fallen off the train before
it reached Loveland. Beyond
skinned forehead and hume
rous bruises he is none the
worse for wear but says he will
ride the cushions rext time.

Chinese Cows Give No Milk
(YoUTH's COMPANION }

.sf.-s4 SOWkI kAlNxOXN
Americans who travel thro'
the interior of China greatly
miss "Cow's Milk and Her But
ter" as a japanese Sign puts it.
The people of the orient use
little of either. Mares milk is
sold to invalids at a high price,
because the Chinese believe
that it is q source of great bodi-
ly strength. But the natives
use cows solely for draft pur-
poses, and having earned her
living for years in this manner,
bossy stands upon her dignity
when Americans demand milk
of her. To her offspring she
will give it, but not to man, if
by possibility she can avoid it.
In Japan there are now a few
American bred cattle, owned by
foreigners, that make the ma
tive cows look like goats. One
of these cows WAS imported into
Korea nv a missionary, but he
had difficulty in getting his
coolie to tend the beast. The
servant was fresh from his
country home, where he hid
heard little and seen less. He
took the COW for an elephant
and fled before her.
In Korea the little native COW
is a pested darling that has
been INDUCED to such an ex-
tent that, incredible as it seems
she refuses to eat grass unless
it has been boiled. It is not
unusual in very cold weather
to see q pet COW clothed in a
thick, warm blanket, while the
children Of the family SILVER
in their cotton garments and
often very few Of them. !
