ZUNI INDIANS FLEET-FOoTeD
Remarkable Racing Tournament in
Which Runners Usually Defeat
Mounted Competitors.

The Zuni Indians of Northwestern
New Mexico occasionally hold q rae
ing tournament in which a number Of
the heetest runners Of the tribe con-
test for prizes to be given those who
first complete on foot a circuit fuIIv
70 miles In length, after a week Of
severe preparatory practice. The con-
testants are compelled to kick a small
stick he entire distance Of the race.
Sometimes they bare the right foot
and grasp the stick between their toes
so that In taking a step they can fling
1t a surprising distance In front of
them as they run.
The rule OF the race Is that tbis
stick is never to be touched by snv
part OF the body other than the foot
The contestants may get into severe
dihculties when the nomadIc piece NJ
wood happens to fall into the midst
OF one of the large thorny clumps NJ
cacti which abounds in that country,
or II the river has TO be crossed In the
race. So extraordinary are the en- ,
durance and speed Of these runners
that they often cover the entire N
miles In a little more than two hours
Sometimes Indians mounted on
swift ponies enter the race against the
root runners. At the end of ten miles
the horses begin to show signs Of a.
tigue' and when Is or 20 miles have
been Travelled they have often to be
withdrawn from the race. The foot
runners are almost always able to win
the race over their mounted competi-
tors and seem to suffer no serIeus
effects from the great muscular strain
to which they have been subjected.

during the diamond conflict.
When Roscoe left the grounds the
crowds had vanished, all except q girl
In a red coat, who stood outside the
gate looking about as though In search
OF some one. She was Eyes, and she
smiled with them when she saw Ros-
coe.
Roscoe's heart beat violently as he
approached her, amazed at his own
temerty, lifted his hat and inquired:
Can l be Of servicer'

looking for my aunt. We got sepaFat-
ed In the crowd and I'm afraid she's

Roscoe stepped into the breach.
"Ill be glad to escort you home in
my-my alleged automobile"
"Ill be equally glad to ride in It, I
assure you" she told him sweetly.
Soon they were buzzing along the
road-not too fast, for Roscoe wanted
to prolonG the trip, especially after he
discovered there was no ring on the
third finger of her left hand.
wasn't It a glorious game" she
exclaimed, starting slightly as Roscoe
narrowly missed hitting another car,
due to the fact that he was looking
into Eyes eyes.
They discussed the game In detail.

they whisked into the residential dis
trict, heading for an address she fur

Roscoe's heart sank.
THAT must be the fellow she's IN
love with" he thought.
HE talks just like you. using the
same idioms, and has the same favor
tie players" she went on.
This gave Roscoe q new lease m
hope. II she loved this other MAJ,
and the other man vas like him, he
felt that he had some chance of beat
Ing him in a matrimonial duel.
"You should meet him." Eyes csu-
tinued. The next corner Is where I
live, please. Yes, you should meet
him, but l could never bring It

"And why mott" he inquired, slow
ing down.
Because l never met him myself.
Probably you'll think I'm q foolish lit

gives me the baseball scores over the
telephone every day, and-but, Of
course, It's all useless. I'll v meet
him"
The roadster came to a stop In front
Of her home with such violence that
their heads struck the top.
Thank you so much" she said, AZ
he helped her out. Maybe I can DO
something for you some day"
Roscoe gulped and CROPPED FOR
words, finally managing to say:
You a do something right now.
Let me come up and see you tonight,
and I'll bring this telephone man Of
yours along. I'm well acquainted with
him"
And Eyes eyes smiled at him and
answered in advance OF her lips.

New System of
Fat Reduction

Here's now way for al fat people
To laugh together at that old bugaboo
Obesity. The saying that there IS
nothing nev under the SUI" does not
now apply 20 fat people any more. Hero
is something new for thern--a new seEsar
ton, new pleasure, q, new and graceful
figure, easily found by anyone who Is
passing beyond the limits Of slimness.
Everyone has heard OF the Marmola Pre-
scription, that harmless combination Of
fat-defying elements discovered by one al
our foremost physicians. Now, from ths.
same high authority, there comes another
idea-the idea Of condeESiag these saule
pure, harmless Ingredients into pleasant
little ablet. Taken after eating and *
bed time, they help the stomach to dis
pose of all the fatty foods, converting
them into co act, solid flesh, muscle aad
energy, without dieting or exercise. Mar
raola Prescription Tablets regulate the
entire system-1so for 70 hat bodily
exertion and self-denial cannot do. and
the fat, once routed, is gone for good.
You can prove al this at trifing cost.

Gus little book OF l671 Galen's "Art Of
Physiok,v down to those of the present
time.

HERSELF.

Whereve she was was laughin' and singin'
and story-tellin',
And kind words Of the old friends, the
like they wee the.e to hear;
And always the bite and sup for the
sehuler that ma ked her dwellin'-
And herself with the step of q girl
and close to seventy year
Eh, blue eyes. that | knew when they
were young,
The sorrows of a long life that could
never dim their light;
Still ! know there's laughin' and stiIl q
song is sung,
And still kind word spoken where
you may be this night.
Wherever she was was comfort and the
oil that she had for sharin'.
The water she gave from the well was
better than drink ai fair:
Never daughter she had with hall her
wit and DARN,
With the like Of her rosy cheeks or the
curl of her silver hair.
Fh, woman dear, who WAS Joy to me so
long,
There many ran to greet you in the
place of your delight,
And think you do be sayin', between
the mirth and song,
The kind word for one old friend who's
missin' YOU this night.
