On the immense sheep ranches in
Australia, each of the boundary riders
has district to look after, in which
lie has to keep the wire fences in
.epair and see that the sheep come to
no harm. II is hard, lonely life. in
which the rider rarely sees another
human being. Many of the men have
strange ways OF keeping count of the
days.
One rider, who mad lived for 50
years in the back country. used two
am tins and seven pebbles. One tin
was marked This Week. and the
other. Last Week" On Sunday morn

BILE out OF Last Week" and drop it
INTO This Week" That operation he
repeated every morning until This
Week" had used up the seven. They
were then returned to Last Week"
one each day; and the fellow knew
when another week had passed.
Another rider, named Earan, tried
several plans to keep count OF the
days but always failed, says the
Youths Companion. At last he hit on
a novel and attractive method He

Austrians give to ceke Of -four and
