shakespeare,s Botany Attacked.

How did the strawberry get it's
name? According to one authority,
because its runners are strawlike: ac-
cording to another, from the ancient
practice of laying straw between the
rows. The first seems the more prob
able, as the wild strawberry was
known in England long before it was
cultivated. 1t is, of course, of the wild
fruit that Shakespeare writes in sKing
Henry ""
The strawberry grows underneath the net
tie,
And wholesome berries thrive and ripen
best
Neighbor'd by fruit Of baser quality.
We are generally disposed to take
S~hakespeare's observation as impecca-
BILE, but does the strawberry flourish
particularly underneath the nettle?'

this and other countries, but the best

IN or runnin', as Is his style OF going.
Shorty knows Ruth can't get of, nor
he can't reach her, so it's a time for
quick action.
He darts through the gate, gifts the
0 from off the fence and makes for
the dark shape of a horse a few feet
away which proves to be old Memo,
which MI. Allen had just turned loose
for the night and who's hangin' around
hopin' for more milo maize.
Shorty has shared Memo and Is on
his back by the time Trusty has got
through spinnin' around and started
runnin'.
Collin his rope as he goes, Shorty
starts to follow, and a dry sob comes
up in his throat as he thinks of that
orphan girl on that nasty, little three
year-Old.
He wonders If she can stay on and
how fresh old Memo is, and be praises
heaven that he's already rode Trusty
about twenty miles that day.
Trusty makes for the sand hills, and
it's hard to keep him in sight.
AS he rounds them knobs and hobs
up again Shorty is expectin' each time
to see by the dim light of the moon
that he's riderless.
'Stick on him." he shouts. Hold a
tight REIN" But if she answer he

can't hear. for the wind is goin' the
same way they are.
He digs his spurs in deep, for he's
mostly holdin' on by 'em, and old
Memo makes a final effort that brings
Shorty pretty near within ropin' dis
lance.
So he begins to swing his rope over
his head. Ruth's hail has all tumbled
down, and she's almos' layin' fiat back
in the saddle as she pulls with all her
strength.
Suddenly Trusty realizes. somebody
is neal him, and he turns his head side
wise.
Down comes Shorty's loop over it,
and the bronze wheels about and de-
posits Ruth on the ground.
Shorty turns loose the rope which
has burnt his hand to the bone and,
as soon as he can, stops the horse.
When he hurries back to Ruth with
his heart clear down in his boots he
finds she's badly Jared but not hurt
none.
If you've got to git throwed in this
country always pick the sandhills for
a place to light. They're like a feath-
er bed.
Dear" he says soft. Ruth, dear,
are you all right?"
He puts his we'll hand under her arm
and helps her to rise.
yes" she says pitiful. "Tm all
right, but l might as well have been
killed. l felt like | wanted to ride and
ride till l was SO far away I'd never
bother anybody again. Nobody would
have cared" she says hopeless.
Ruth" Shorty says stern, lookin'
square into her eyes, don't ever let me
hear you say that again.
Then Ruth crumples up, produces a
handkerchief from somewhere and be-
gins to cry.
l started this tale by announcin'
how gallant and sympathizin' the cow
boys are. Shorty set down beside her
and sympathized. If he done any
more he failed to mention it to me. but
he didn't need to.
He said what got him was her bein'
a unprotected orphan with no home
and not a heartless fiirt who had so
many lovers she didn't know how to
appreciate 'em.
Pete" he says solemn, ''she never
a a sweetheart before in her life.
That's the way l like EN-" he says.

TIE GALLANT
SHORTY
Being the Touching Tale of a
Cowboys COurtship.
BY IDA SPEED

Most folks back east think a cowboy
Is a regular Arab. Always on the
move; no politeness, no feelin', nc
heart.
Let 'em come out here and stay q
while in West Texas. Maybe these
cowpunchers don't know a knife from
a fork. Shorty Curtis used to say he
swallowed his table manners when he
was young, seem he mostly eat in a
COW camp and didn't need 'em.
But you talk about bein' plumb gal
liant where a lady is concerned, and
helpin' the under dog and givin' away
the very shirt off their backs-the cow
boys have got the world beat for their
endearin' charms.
In this country the name "Shorty" is
usually applied to slim, loose built fell
lers of six foot two, but this here
Shorty Curtis was a little duck, shore
enough.
He was the real article in the cow
punchin' line, quicker'n a flash of light
min with d rope, and he could saddle
up in a bobcat and ride him, if neces-
sary.
He worked over at the Bar LIS ten
or 'leven miles from here, but one
evenin' he bowed in at the ranch and
asked me for the loan of a white shirt.
He had plenty of clothes, but they
was scattered from the Oklahoma line
to the Rio Grande, so he mostly dress
ed in borrowed toys.
He was on his way to a roundup at
the III circle next day to git some Bar
L yearlin's that go that far and give
out.
1t was about an hour till supper time,
and | tried to git him to spend the
night, but he wouldn't stay.
There was a family named Allen that
had come in a month back and took up
land three miles from the II Circle
headquarters, and word had just got
to Shorty that there was a good lookin'
daughter in the bunch.
Guess I'll just drop by and swap
a little good cheer for a meal of vic
IudlS, he says.
Then | know why he's wearin' such
loud spurs, for them girls from back
east consider it an insult for you tc
take 'em off when you come in the
house, it bein' music to their ears to
hear EN- Jingle.
Now, two of the incest little girls in
this country would give their heads fol-

One is his town girl down at Sweet
Springs, which she m in awful

son, his boss daughter,

Tiers met the queen.
She's not like girls in this country
yet. Her neck amt sunburnt, and her
hands are still white.
She sets ON the gallery and enter
tains company whilD supper's bein' got
by her ma and Ruth, her plain cousin
with glasses that come over her ears,
that's come to stay with them on ac-
count of it bein's high and dry and
her havin' no other home.
Jessie don't wash the dishes, nei.

You see, if Shorty struck a ranch
about chuck time, when ome of the
girls was cleanin' up dishes, you
couldn't pry him away from the cup
towel with a crOwbar.
And he'd talk Mexican to 'em sc
they didn't know whether he was max.
In love or maxim fun. and it shore
