WARS WOMEN.

Wars Women tells the story OF
a band of soldiers who have been in
the mountains for months, but are
suddenly called to hold a village from
which money has been demanded.
The troops are i'll charge of the Emir
Of Balkan. They have not seen the
face of woman in months. During
the struggle for supremacy Of the
village half the women and children
seek sanctuary in the abbey. After
gaming possession Of the village the
Emir gives the council one hour to
turn over the money, with threat
That ii the command is not obeyed
the soldiers will be turned loose
among the women in the abbey
The captain has rushed to headquart-
ers at the front. His daughter Syl-
via, whom the Emir has seen before,
is a beautiful girl, strongly devoted
to her father. She fears he is in
trouble and goes to headquarters,
where she finds the women congre-
gated in the abbey. Her father does
not know she has left home. The
Emir has pledged the abbey to his
soldiers for the night if the council
does not turn over the money. In
the meantime the soldiers are drink
ing and carousing. Sylvia is advised
OF the fate that awaits the women.
The Emir enters the abbey and in
the name of the Emperor of Balkani
orders, Have wine and good cheer

and thirsty-for the sight of a.

The members of the Caranza- VIII

Mexico. We have again and again
been assured that il was our bound

if they do not plant portion of this
land to alfalfa. This crop does eX-

is the most profitable kind of farm

good demand for Montana grown
alfalfa in the markets, but it is much
better to feed it and sell the finished
product than it is to Sell it to some
body else and let him secure the

If SHE TALKS TO STRANGERS.

How delicious is the winning
OF a kiss at loves beginning,
When two mutual hearts are signing
For the knot there's no untying,
Love he comes, and Love he tarries,
Just as Fate or Fancy carries;
Longest stays when sorest chidden,
Laughs and flies when pressed and bidden.
There are so many "don'ts" put
down in the lectures parents read to
their young daughters just budding in
to womanhood that it should not be
wondered at that the pretty young
things fail to acquire half of the knowl-
edge that was supposed to have taken
firm, deep root. Especially is this the
case in regard to the opposite sex.
The one warning which should be first
on the list of ''don'ts," but which is
usually overlooked, is not to hold con-
versations with strangers.
This does not apply to the business
girl across whose path strangers are
constantly coming and going, but to
the shy, modest maiden whom bold
trifiers select, as target toward which
they may direct their wiles-a girl too
innocent to look out for herself. Men
of that stamp usually infest the parks,
for it is there young girls are wont to
turn their steps when the air is balmy
with the breath of spring.
Few men would have the temerity to
open a conversation with a young
woman without certain amount of
encouragement from her. To find a
lovely young girl quite alone, sitting
on bench, is the bold mans oppor-
tunity. He takes seat at the farth-
est corner and begins his scheme of
flirting by cycling her covertly. Once
aware that she has taken note of his
presence, then he boldly opens siege
by commenting on the weather, taking
his chances as to whether she is lady
enough to rebuke his advances or silly
enough to be led into conversation.
If she betakes herself to another
bench where she is removed from his
unwelcome impertinence, though his
vanity is ruff1ed by the quiet rebuff,
he cannot help respecting the lass, adj
miring her all the more. That is the
girl he cannot forget, and in his mus
ings he wishes that it might fall to his
lot to win such golden prize for a
wife. A husbands love and honor
would be so secure in her keeping.
