'"They say" remarked George L.

their own medicine, and in my youth I
believed that lie.

stormy passage across the Atlantic,

II was like Lincoln in his relations
with women to get the cart before the
horse. so to speak. The points upon
which they disagreed came up for con-
sideration. She could not think as he
did on the subject Of slavery and the
kindred one Of state rights. His gnan-
ners were not like hers. They grew
naturally out Of ones history anC Char
acter. He could be kind and gentle
in his way. But, mainly. his manners
wound have to be like the rugged limbs
of the oak. The grace and elegance
of the water-wiIow and the white
birch were not for him. II saddened
him to conclude that he would have
to be for long time just what he was
crude, awkward, unlearned in the
graces and amenities of cultivated
people. He rightly judged that his
erudeness would hc constant source
of irritation to the proud Mary. AS
their acquaintance progressed the
truth of bis conviction grew more APP
parent. This. however. did not so
much concern him as her lack Of sym
pathy with some OF his deepest mo-
tives. He decided that. after ALL he
did not love her and that to marry her
would be committing q great wrong
Some of the unhappiest days of his
life followed. His conscience gave
him no rest. He knew not what to do.
He wrote a letter to Miss Todd in
which he reviewed the history of his
thinking on the subject of their mar
riage and frankly but tenderly stated
his conviction that II would imperil
her happiness 70 marry him. Before
sending 1t he submitted the letter to
his friend Speed.
The latter read II over and licked
very grave.
what do you think Of itT' Lincoln
asked.
81 would never send letter like
that to a lady," SPEED answered. "If
YOU feel as you say, go and tell her
so, hut don't put II in letter"
Lincoln went TO see her that eve
ming and returned TO his friend in
more cheerful mood.
"Dtd you tell 'her?" Speed asked.
"Yes, l told her"
"What happened?"
"She burst out crying and I threw
my arms around her and kissed her
and that settled II. We are going to
be married"

cles appearing in recent issues of local papers, wherein the arrest of Il violators on a single day was chronicled. These violators were punished to the full extent of the law, as will be all violators this season, Prochaska has said. Violation of game laws comes high when one con siders that he is subject to fine of $10 for each bird Illegally taken. In other words, if a hunter takes 30 birds illegally, he is subject to a fine of $500 in the wisdom of the court before whom he is summoned Of course, the court has sole jurisdiction in the pronouneement of sentence, but Warden Prochaska has been as- sured by many that they will back up his efforts to protect game by giving violatorss the limit"
 Prosecution <of violators of the game laws will be pushed in every Instance. Warden Prochaska said re- gently. Ignorance of the law does not excuse, he emphasized. for the game department has prepared, in booklet form. all statutory provisions regarding the protection of game. as well as federal laws. These booklets

 More than 300 special deputies. 325 to be exact, are now employed by the state game department to en- force laws during the hunting sea- sons Warden Prochaska left this morning for northern Arizona to per- sonally institute drive against game law vioIators in that district.
 In addition to the state deputies, the federal forestry department has specially deputized every ranger in Arizona for a period of SO days to devote his entire time and attention to game protection, according to ad vices received at the office of the state game warden.
 Special game wardens will be on duty throughout the hunting seasons at White Tanks. New river, Fish ! Creek. Mormon Flats. Four Peaks. Blue range, Catalina mountains, the Mogollons.

 Because of the great number plan- ming hunting trips this fall. Game Warden Prochaska has sounded a warning against carelessness. Greater caution should be exer- cised by tLe huntsman this year than ever before because of the hundreds of other sportsmen in the field" he said.
