Why You Should Go
To Church

To be of no church Is dangerous Religion, of
which the rewards distant, and which is animated
only by Faith and Hope, will glide by degrees out of
the mind unless It be nvigorated by external ord-
nances, by stated calls to worship and the salutary
influence of example.

said Miss Rhinoceros, looking about
her. have had the many and interest
ing experiences | have had
Now none of the other animals in
the different houses of the zoo knew
all of Miss Rhinoceros' experiences, so
they really could not answer her when
she said she had had more interesting
experiences than. they had had.
They all looked at her, open-mouth-
ed. but did not say a word.
Finally Mrs. Rhinoceros, who lived
next door in the zoo, spoke up and
this is what she said:
81 don't see why you can brag any
more than can. We are both Of
the same family, we both have the
same habits and ways"
81 came from Africa" said Miss
Rhinoceros.
That's nothing" replied Mrs. Rhi-
noceros, $50 did l."
/ Now all the animals listened atten-
lively to this argument. They felt
sure it would be very interesting.

Then, too, they were anxious to see
how it would turn OUT and whether
Miss Rhinoceros or Mrs. Rhinoceros
would win.
They didn't see how either one
could-for they were both indeed Of
the same family, they had come from
the same country, and now they were
both in the zoo.
I'm very well-behayed and gentle,
said Miss Rhinoceros.
1.-THE same is equally true of me-"
answered Mrs Rhinoceros.
II was carried on poles from my
home near the lake in Africa to big
steamer, and travelled by the sea to
come to this country"
"The same as l did," said Mrs.
Rhinoceros.
Now both of them were pleasant.
but the other animals feared there
would be a great fight following this,
and yet they both kept on talking
Each boosted of what experiences
each had had, and neither Miss Rhi~
noceros nor Mrs. Rhinoceros seemed
to have had one the other hadn't had.
The animals thought the converse
ton would end nowhere at all, and
were about to turn away to pay atten-
ton to other matters, food and such
things, when suddenly Miss Rhonoce-
ros screamed out: II have had one
more experience than you have had.
Yes, / have. I'm sure of it. Quite
quite, quite sure
Tell me of it." said Mrs. Rhinoce-
ros. She seemed to doubt very much
that Miss Rhinoceros could tell her
of any experience she hadn't had. And
no wonder she was still more firmly
convinced of this idea, because in all
their talk, no matter what Miss Rhi-
| noceros had said, Mrs. Rhinoceros had
| been able to say the same.
81 will tell you of it. and that most
| quickly" said Miss Rhinoceros.
All the animals listened once more.
They felt from the way Miss Rhinoce-
ros had spoken that surely this time
something interesting was forthcoming.
And they didn't want to miss anything
worth while. They had been listen
| ing to too much that hadn't amounted
to anything, though they had learned

but the crude sympathy of this old
halfbreed was more to her than all
the expensive flowers that had been
stacked upon NOMINEES coffin.
She picked up the two letters she
had written Ward. brushed on the dust
and eyed them hesitatingly. 1t GER
tainly was queer that Ward had not
ridden down for some word from her.
She hesitated, then threw the thin let
ter into the fire. Its message was no
longer Of urgent, poignant need. Billy
Louise drew long breath when the
grief laden lines crumbled quickly and
went flying up the wide throat Of the
chimney. The other letter she pinched
between her thumbs and fingers. She
smiled little to herself. Ward would
like to get that. She had a swift vision
of him standing over there by the WIN
dow and reading it with those swift
shutting glances. She remembered
how she had begun it-"Brave Bucka-
roo"-and her cheeks turned pink. He
should have it when he came. Some
thing had kept him away. He would
come Just as soon as he could. she
laid the letter back upon the mantel
and set a china COW on 1t to keep 1t

and began to set the table for Phoebe

was so sure he would come as soon as
he could Mommie used to say that

Phoebe glanced at her pityingly when
she saw her hesitating with the fourth
plate in her hands. Phoebe thought
that Billy Louise had unconsciously
brought 1t for mommie Phoebe did
not know that love is stronger even
than grief. for at that moment Billy
Louise was not thinking Of mominie

Billy Louise Held Blue Firmly to a
Curved Neck.

She managed to pun Blue down to
stlff-legged jumps and then to II walk.
Finally she stopped him, so that she
could the better take in her surround
ings and the possibilities of getting
down.
Blue had caught sight Of the moving
specks far down next the river and up
the stream half a mile or more. He
was n cow-horse TO the bone. He knew
those far-off specks for cattle, and he
knew that his lady would like n closer
look at them.
Blue chose his trail and crumpled
ut the knees with his hoofs on the very
edge of the ledge; went down with
cat-jump and landed with all four feet
planted close together. He had no
mind to go on sliding in spite of him
self, and the bluff was certainly steep
enough to excuse bungle.
1t was with distinct air of triumph
that Blue reached the bottom, even
though he slid the last forty feet on
his launches and landed belly-deep in
a soft snowbank. II was with triumph

I didn't have TO walk n step, did /,
Blue? You're there with the goods,

Blue scrambled out of the bank to
firm footing on the ripened grass of
the bottom, and with toss of his head
set OF In a swinging lope, swervlng
now and then to avoid badger hole
or a half-sunken rock. They had done
something new, those two; they had
reached place where neither had ever
been before. and Blue acted as If he
knew 1T and gloried In the escapade
quite as much as did his lady.
The cattle spied them and went trot-
ting away up the river. and Blue quick
ened his stride little and followed
after. Billy Louise left the reins upon
his neck. Blue could handle cattle
alone quite as skillfully as with a
rider. if he chose.
The cattle began to swerve away
from them. closer to the river. Blue
pulled ahead little. swerving also,
and as Billy Louise frightened the
reins. he slowed and circled them craft
lily until they huddled on the steep
bank. uncertain which way to go. Billy
Louise pulled Blue down to a walk as
she drew near and eyed the cattle
sharply. They did not look like any Of
hers, after all. There were five dry
cows and two steers.
One of the steers stood broadside
to Billy Louise. The brand stared out
from his dingy red side, the most con-
spicuous thing about him. Billy Lou
Use caught her breath. There was no
faintest line that failed TO drive Its
message into her range-trained brain.
She stared and stared. Blue looked
around at her inquiringly, reproach-
fully. Billy Louise sent him slowly
forward and stirred up the hoddled
little bunch. She read the brand on
each one; read the story they shouted
at her, of bungling theft
Finally she swung Blue on the down
stream side and shouted the range

wardly and went upstream. as they

Billy Louise slackened the reins, and
Blue went of with short, stiff-legged
jumps. 1t had been a long time since
he had felt the weight of his lady,
and his mood now was exuberant.
Blue threw up his head, lifted his
heels. and ran like scared jackrab-
bit over the uneven ground. They
were not keeping to the trail at all ;
trails were too tame for them in that
mood. They ran along the rim-rock
at the last, where Billy Louise could
glance down, now and then, at the
river sliding like bright blue ribbon
with icy edges through the gray, snow
spotted hills.
Hold on, Blue!" Billy Louise
pulled up on the reins. Quit 1t, you

close again to the river, the cattle
climbed to narrow, shelving trail
picking their way carefully along the
bluff. Below them 1t fell sheer to the
river; above them 1t rose steeply. a
blackened tumble, save where the snow
of the last storm lay drifted.
Billy Louise had never known there
was trail up this gorge She eyed 1t
critically and saw where boulders had
been moved here and there to make
its passage possible. Her lips were
set close together and they still bore
the imprint of her contempt.
She thought of Ward. Mentally she
abased herself before him because of
her doubts. How she had dared think
him thief? Her brave buckaroo
And she had dared think he would
steal cattlel Her very remorse was
a whip to lash her anger against the
guilty. She hurried the cattle along
the dangerous trail, impatient of their
cautious pace.
Since she had closed up on the
cattle and had read on their sides the
shameful story of theft, Billy Louise
had known that she would eventually
come out Mt the lower end of the Cove
and that In spite OF the fact that the
Cove was not supposed to have any
egress save through the gorge. What
surprised her was the short distance
she had not realized THAT the bluff
and the upland formed n wide curve,
and that she had cut the distance al
most in half by riding next the river.

walked determinedly along the path 10

She opened the gate and stepped
through, closing 1t after her. She had
