ApaChes Demand and Are Given
Plenty of Room.
Tribe Which Was Once Known az
Worst In Country Still Refuses TO
Take Up Real Farming.

OF all the wards of Uncle Sam
none enjoyed worse reputation nor q
better-deserved one, than the Apache
Indians Of the Southwest 80 years ago
They terrorlzed the Mexicans, robbed
the wagon trains I'm the Santa Fe trail
made the frpntlersman's life miserable
caused the patient troopers of the reg.
ular army to plod and struggle over
countless miles of hot sand and blue
lava on their trail and as soon as they
were fairly beaten and settled down
they broke out in q new place. Today
their country is given over TO the
farmer and the fllvver, and what re-
mains Of the tribe occupies a spacious
reservation In northwestern New Mex
leo, says the Buffalo News.
The reservation is spacious, because
the Apache needs plenty Of room. II
contains little besides space, because
that is the kind Of land that suits him /;
and, luckily for him, has little attrac
ton for anybody else. The Apache's
idea of a small one-man homestead
would run anywhere from thousand
acres up. He does not go in for in.
tensive cultivation. He plants a little
corn here and there, and he harvests
wild hay wherever 1t chances to grow
thickly enough to make the process
worth while, but real farming is in
compatible with his idea of the dignity
of a man and an Indian.
The boundaries of the reservation
are not visible to the naked eye, so
that If you chance to be travelling in
the neighborhood you may easily stray
over the Apache's hearth and home
without finding 1t out. The owner,
however, will inform you of the fact
with great vigOr, If he chances to find
you. On the other hand, you may travel
on Apache land for weeks and never
meet a soul. The reservation comprises
hundreds of square miles, and the In
dians are true nomads, wandering
from place to place as the fancy
seizeS.
The reservation is a land Of rolling
hills, with q few stubby mountain
ranges, and a share of barren plain.
Most of the country is fertile enough,
especially the hill land, but the Indian
makes no attempt to realize on it's fer.
tility. At least, he is doing nothing to
exhaust the soil, and should his race
or another ever come to farm it they
will find earth as virgin as that of the
western prairies a hundred years ago.

Cured of Borrowing.

swell, I've found way to stop my
neighbors from borrowing" said a
young suburban matron gleefully.
"You see" she explained, 1--WE are not
near any store, and, of course, some
times one has to depend on a neighbor
in an emergency. But my particular
neighbor seemed to have such emerg-
encies nearly every day. And it was
usually vinegar that she wanted. Now
we are particular about our vinegar,
and get the best variety, and of course
when Mrs. Neighbor asked for vinegar
we gave her our best. But when she
returned it she sent a very cheap
grade, which we were unable to use,
and were obliged to throw out.
"This was repeated so often that we
began to weary Of 1t, and suddenly
bright idea struck me. l carefully
poured her cheap vinegar into bottle
and saved 1t. Next time she asked me
to lend her vinegar I sent her own to
her. The cure worked, She has never
asked for another drop, and / sup
nose she thinks / am mean sort of
neighbor. But don't care. ."-Ex-
change.

CHAPTER VII.
A Freudian Physician.

Roses arrival at the dinner-a little
late, to be sure, but not scandalously
created a mild sensation. None of
the other guests were strangers, either,
on whom she could have the effect
of novelty. But when she came into
the drawing room-in such wonder
full gOwn-put on tonight because she
felt somehow like especially pleasing
Rodney-when she came in, she re-
oxygenated the social atmosphere.
She was, in fact, a stranger. Her
voice had a bead on it which reused
u perfectly unreasOning physical ex-
citement-the kind of bead which, in
singing, makes all the difference be-
tween church choir and grand opera,
The glow they were accustomed to
in her eyes concentrated itself into
flashes, and the flush that so often,
and so adorably, suffused her face,
burned brighter now in her cheeks and
left the rest pale.
And these were true indices of the
changes that had taken place within
her. From sheer numb incredulity,
she had reacted to a fine glow of in
dignatiOn. She had found herself sud
denly feeling lighter, older, indescrib-
ably more confident. They shouldn't
suspect her humiliation or her hurt.
Her husband, James Randolph re-
fiected, had evidently either been max
ing love to her, or indulging in the civil
lied equivalent of beating her; he was
curious to find out which. And, having
learned from his wife that Rose was
to sit beside him at the table, he
made up his mind that he would. A
physician of the Freudian school, train
ed to analyze peoples souls, he was
well equipped to find out, without
Roses knowledge.
He didn't attempt it, though, during
his first talk with her-cOnfined him
self vigorously to the carefully sifted
chaff which does duty for polite con-

While the Spirit Lives.

The men of the American Revolution
have left us an example already In
scribed in the worlds memory; an ex-
ample pOrtentious to the aims of tyran-
ny in every land; an example that win
console in all ages the dropping aspira-
tions of oppressed humanity. They
have left us a written charter as leg
acy and as a guide to our course. But
every day convinces US that a written
charter may become powerless. Ig-
norance may misinterpret it; ambition
may assail and faction destroy it's vital
parts and aspiring knavery may at last
sing its requiem on the tomb of depart
ed liberty. 1t is the spirit which lives;
In this are our safety and our hope;
the spirit of our fathers, and while this
dwells deeply In. our remembrance, and
its flame is cherished, ever burning,
ever pure, on the altar of our hearts;
while it incites us to think as they
have thought, and do as they have
done, the honor and the praise will be
ours, to have preserved unimpaired the
rich inheritance which they so nobly
achieved.-Jared Sparks (1789-1866).

heavens |" he said. "There's nothing
to tell I've got an argument before
the court Of appeals tomorrow anc
there's a ruling decision against me
1t is against me, and it's bad law
But that isn't what want to tell them
l want some way Of making a distinc'
tion so that I can hold that the de-
cislon doesn't rule"
"And 1t wouldn't help" she ventured,
'1f you told me all about It? don't
care about the dinner"
II couldn't explain in a month" he
said.
"Oh, 1 wish l we're some good !" she
said forlornly.
He pulled out his watch again and
began pacing up and down the room.
II just can't stand it to see you
like that" she broke out again. "If
you'll only sit down for FIVE minutes
and let me try to get that strained
look out Of your eyes. :"
"Can't you take my word for 1t and
let 1t alone2" he shouted. II don't
need to be comforted nor encouraged.
I'm in an intellectual quandary. For
the next three hours, or six, or how
ever long it takes, want my mind to
run cold and smooth. I've got to be
tight and strained. That's the way the
jobs done. You can't solve an intel
lectual problem by having your hand
held, or your eyes kissed, or anything
like that. Now, for the love of heaven,
child, run along and let me forget you
ever existed, for a while"
