SYNOPSIS.


Brick Wilcox, highwayman, saves one
Gledware and . baby girl from being
murdered by his fellow outlaws on the
western plains.
Wilcox fees to the mountains and hides
to escape the wrath Of the outlaws he had
outwitted. He learns that some one has
discovered his hiding place.
Red Feather. an Indian chief brings
Wilcox little white GIRL named Lahoma.
and instructs him to take care Of her. He
says her father il living with Indians.
Wilcox recognizes her as the daughter
Of q woman who had died and was buried
near by. He begins to teach Lahoma cor
rect English.
The girl is taken across country by
Wilcox to visit Bill Atkins, and later she
makes her first trip to real town.
A young man, Wifred Compton. visiting
at a ranch. gets an accidental glimpse of
Lahoma and becomes interested in her.
The girl is now fifteen years old.
Compton afterward visits Wilcox and is
finally allowed to meet and talk with La
homa. They become vastly entertained
by one another's company.
Compton leaves and goes to another Sec
tion Of the country as a pioneer, where he
hopes to make his fortune WILCOX and
Atkins Join forces. Compton later re-
turns.
1ahoma is sent to a city to get educa-
tion and training. Compton is heart
broken at not being able to see her. Ped
Feather appears on the scene once more.
Lahoma writes a long letter. One Of
the men she meets Is Gledware. her step
father, but she does not know Of the re-
lationship He 10 q crook Of the lowest

that Red Kimball, one of the outlaws with
whom Wilcox formerly operated, has
sworn to kill him and has started on his
way to do So She adds that Gledware
is in dread Of something the Indian. Rec!
Feather, may do to him.
Red Feather attacks Gledware and al
most kills him. Lahoma learns that Gled-
ware has married the Indians daughter
and deserted her. Wilfred Compton Joins
Lahoma and escorts her in a stagecoac ch
to Willocks home.
Red Kimball and the remnant Of the

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q.-I have beautiful bird which has
developed a cold. His breathing is hard
and difficult and he is watering at the
eyes. How can | cure him?
A.-Colds. are not, as a rule, hard to
cure, but il left uutreated will rapidly
develop into Toup and in many instances
this means death. Dissolve one dram OF
tanic acid in three ounces of water
Place the forehnger in the roof OF the
birds mouth, and the thumb under the
eye, and press gently, but firmly with
both. This will cause the mucus from
the nasal passage. Now, with a syring
put the tanic solution into the passage,
completely filling it. Repeat this twice
a day and give one-grain quinine capsul,
morning and night. The cold should be
eradicsted in two days.
Q.-I wish to make an inquiry regard.
ing the setting of hens eggs Is it an
established fact that eggs that are some
what long and tapered generally hatch
roosters2
A.-This is indeed skepticism Science
has done many things since the beginning
Of the world, and will possibly accomplish
many more wonders in the future. One
thing, however, il is true that great as
science is, it has never yet invaded the
rights of the Almighty to the point where
il can be told what sex of chicken will
be hatched from any kind Of an egg
Long eggs, however, should be avoided in |
the selection of Matching eggs, not be- |
cause they will hatch out roosters or even !
pullets, but on account of the vitality and |
strength Of the chick. Long narrow eggs
possess less of an air sDace at the hut Or L
large end of the egg, which is so essential
TO the strength and vitality of the bird |
hatched. The use of this particular kind /
Of egg for setting ia condemned for this
reason, and not because they will hatch
roosters. The larger the air chamber in
the but or large end Of an egg, the stronger
the chicken hatched therefrom, and for
this and no other reason, shoHld the use
Of the long and narrow egg be abolished.
Pointed eggs are equally as good as are
blunt pointed ones, provided they have
srge butts which permit the proper air
pace.
