We read in history about the saints and martyrs of olden times, but has it ever occurred to you that they are not entirely uncommon in every day life today, if you'll just take the trouble to look for them?
 They are usually of the sex feminine. according to general report, being found in the person of some sweet, unselfish woman, who is perfectly unconscious that she is so regarded; indeed, if such wom- en were conscious they would be neither saints nor martyrs ses <
 There doesn't seem to be any special competition on the part of men as to this sainthood attitude; there are cer- tain distinctions which in their opinion women are very welcome to claim as their own; in fact, men go so far as to freely admit that many a. woman is a perfect saint" juct because she hap pened to put up with the many little foibles and fancies of a husband whom other men know is bound to be exacting and with whom another man would be highly impatient

 What a study in both thriving and re- luctant development they were! Some faces bore the age-stamped look of in- difference and apathy-these were too old to change: others wore diamonds in their eyes and "took considerable notice" !"

The forty-niners who crossed the deserts of Utah and Nevada were encouraged by the knowledge of California beyond. Only the Spanish ex- plorers from Mexico and pioneer trav- elers through the deserts of Arizona and southern California can appreciate the suffering and understand the failure of the heroic Australian scouts.
 The center of the great continent, which their hopes had pictured as grass covered plains. fertile valleys, lakes and timbered highlands. interspersed, perhaps, with arid stretches, had turned out to be one of the most extensive deserts In the world, into which streams rising near the coast were lost in sea of rock and sand.
