She came leisurely up the yard,
carrying a sailor hat in her hand and
looking interestedly about her. Once
she stopped, turned and gazed over
the hills and the valleys far away,
beautiful III the peaceful hush of the
mellow sunset.
Mary moved across the room to the
door. After all she was Mibb Hen
derson of the old days; her
girlhood friend.
"Hello, Mary!" greeted Mibb
standing on the door stone fringed
with the plaintain leaves.
"How do you do, Mabel" respond
cd Mary. won't you come in?"
"For few minutes perhaps" the

see how things were going and to
talk over old times with you. l don't

this week will be the last of the

MUSEUM NOTES

Bluebirds were reported at The
Fairbanks Museum for March II, and
Song Sparrows for March 20, though
no large numbers of either species
have been noted. Snowdrops were
found poisoning March 10 on the
Underclyffe grounds. Growth can be
seen already in the alder catkins on
sunny banks by the rivers.
The collection of old documents at
the Museum has two new papers of
interest. One of the extra New York
Heralds of April Is, 1866, telling OF
the assassination of President Lin
coin, has been loaned by Mrs. Fran
els A. Poole. Mr.. John S. White has
loaned a bill of lading made out by
the Adams Express Company OF
Providence, R. l., in January, 1878
The age of the document, however, is
not its special interest but the fact
that the bill is for zone boy, John S

main to make politics bad. He and
she are turning it over, so far as they
can, to those who would use it for
evil purposes, and those, even more
dangerous, who would use it for
stupid, ignorant, wrong-headed pur-
poses.
People might as well say they have
nothing to do with air, as to say they
have nothing to do with politics.
Politics may not be quite as necessary
to their life as air is, but it is just
as unacceptable. Government S all
about us like air. We may pass all
our lives without noticing it; we do
not notice air much; but we should
promptly notice its absence
if it were withdrawn, and we should
note the withdrawal of government
with something of the same discom-
fort.
Russia has been expounding to us
rather wildly the character of that
discomfort.
No man can say that he attends
only to his business and lets politics
alone. He could not attend to his
business if politics let him alone.
Russia is another proof of that. He
may think he comes into contact with
government only when he buys a
stamp at the postoffice, but govern
ment touches him as the air does

Bull fighting in Matamoros was dis

Bull fighting in Matamoros was dis
continued six years ago. The arena,
one of the finest in the republic, was
destroyed by Carranza's adherents
when Matamoros was taken by the
forces under General Blanco. The
federal forces made their last stand
in the bull ring.
Bull fights were abolished in the
republic by decree of General Car
rama as soon as he became president
Later the governors of the respective
states were permitted to allow or pro
hibit the fights.
Years ago many Americans were
attracted to bull fights in the towns
across the border and the railroads
gave reduced rates.

NOh that's nothing" declared Mibb
contemptuously. II always said

You could have done something simil-
lar if you hadn't been so sickishly
sentimental. After all, in this life,
we have to look out for ourselves.
If we don't nobody else will, that's
sure!" She paused on the step. "My
heavens, who's that boy?"
<'That's my eldest boy Tom. He's
fifteen this coming summer, although
the neighbors say he looks eighteen

The boy had appeared with vault
over the stone wall followed by q
black spaniel dog. He went or
through the yard to the barn. Mabel
looked after him blankly. Then she
flushed. For it must have come to
her in that moment how many years
had passed since she had poked he1

poke their fingers into prospective

RoCKEFELIER's GIFT.

John D. Rockefeller has just giver
another hundred million dollars fol
the advancement of education and
medicine. He had given twenty-five
millions at another time during this
year. The total of the Rockefeller
gifts up to the present is close to six
hundred million dollars.
Rockefeller has given more than
Carnegie gave, and he has given more
wisely. The Carnegie libraries doubt
less have done good and are good. Also
they are great advertisement for the
ironmaster. But Rockefeller has given
directly to education and to the adj
vancement of medical science.
However much John D. Rockefel-
ler's business methods may be open
to criticism, he, the richest man in the
world, has lived modestly and econom-
ically. He has taught his children TO
do likewise,
The Journal carried the story the
other day of the purchase by a New
York woman of little more than
five pounds of Russian sable for eigh-
ty-five thousand dollars Rockefeller
would have put that sum into business
Tor would have given 1t to education.
1t never would have been expended
by him for the purchase Of a cloak for
his wife.

BUSINESS NEVER so GOOD.

The Christmas buying this year was
upon scale never before known in
the United States. Buying in Aibu-
querque was heavier than ever before,
and as rule the buyers paid cash.
What was true Of this place was true
on vastly greater scale in the cities
of the east where money per capita
is more plentiful.
In our crusade against high prices,
we should bear in mind that WINE
prices are high the people have the
money, as they never had before even
when prices were low, to pay for the
things purchased.
Prices have always been high when
money was plentiful, just as money
has always been scarce when prices
were low. Today, the man who kicks
about the price Of flour has the money
TO nav for all the flour he needs Bu'
when wheat was selling for fifty cents
a bushel a vast number of people
couldn't pay for enough flour even te
sustain life.

BIC EATERS GET

The American men and women
must guard constantly against Kid

much and all our food Is rich. QUE
blood is filled with uric acid when
the kidneys strive to filter out, they
weaken from overwork, become
sluggish: the eliminative tissues clog
and the result is Kidney trouble

DIR. LUKIGNS AND TILE CHILD.
RliN'S HOME.

Ii i" doubtful if any other institution
in New Mexico is doing greater good
than the Children's Home, or that any
other man in the state is deyoting
himself so fully to work for the bene-
fit of humanity as is Dr.. C. +. Lukens,
the superintendent.
Here are a few racts that the public
should know:
l. During the past fourteen years
more than two thousand destitute
many OF them deformed-children-
have passed through the Children's
Home to good homes where they were
given kindly and proper care in fam
lilies wishing for children to raise.
2. Hundreds Of children with de-
formities of spine or of the bones Of
other parts of the body, have been
treated and cured and thereby enabled
20 become self-supporting members of
society.
3. While in the home of the society,
every child has been given the best
sort of schooling, and has been passed
on from there TO people who have
given them good educational advan-
tages.
4. 1t should be known that DR..
Lukens has never received one penny
for his services during the fourteen
years of his superntendency, but on
the other hand, has been one of the
largest cash contributors to its sup
port.
5. DIR. Lukens keeps an accurate
record of every penny contributed for
the support of the home and just as
accurate record OF every penny that
is expended for the school. The books
of the school are audited every quar-
ter just as carefully as are the books
of any bank in the state.
Even the automobile in which the
children are given rides almost daily
is the properly of DR.. Lukens, and not
one dollar for its gas. oil or upkeep is
paid for by the funds of the Children s
Home.
The cynic will ask: What does Dr.
Lukens get out of it? Merely gratiii-
cation of his desire to do good to
children, to serve humanity. Fortu-
nately for him, he has an ample in
come and is able to devote all his time
and skill to a work that he loves for
the works sake.
