a strong chest, wonderful digestion,
magnificent teeth and fine muscles. He
can stand hunger. fatigue and expo

While he is slow to adopt modern
methods Of tillage, irrigation and fer
tilizing, he is beginning to recognize
their advantages. His hospitality, In
difference to pain, sense of humor,
good temper, love of children and
trustworthiness are all good traits In
his character. He is a manly speci-

Counting a Score.
Twenty is called a score because it
represents the whole man, ten fingers
and ten toes. Etymologically it means
a cut or mark. In very early times,
when men could not count beyond
twenty, or zone man." it was usual to
cut a notch in q stick and begin again.
and so it went on, one man, two men,
and so on. This is why sheep are still
counted by the score. Now, a tally
(French taille, cut or nicked) means an
account kept by means of a notched
stick, and until the end of the eight
eenth century such sticks were given
as exchequer receipts, accompanied by
a written document. This was also the
usual way of keeping accounts In the
inns of the middle ages. The number
of drinks or meals customer had
were scored against him on what was
called a tally stick, and when it reach
ed twenty, or a whole man." he was
expected to pay.
