DO WOMEN LOVE
MORE THAN MEN!

Does a woman love more than =
man? And, after marriage which re-
tains more of the first joyous rapture
of courtship the husband or the
wife? was the question asked one wo-
man. She replied:
A woman's love, from the point of
view of unselfishness, is better and
purer. When she loves man she will
sacrifice everything TO ribs sake. She
does things for her husband before
she gives time to think Of anything
outside his needs
A man is not so quick; the time he
wastes in thinking" the wife utilities
to help make his life more happy.
I know men who really love their
wives and yet do not show it. The
light of romance is hidden. 1t takes a
lot to rouse It, but then 1t reveals the
alteration that won their brides.
That is the secret Of some mems
love. They hide it. They cannot help
7. 1t is part OF their nature; and this
reserve is put down to their lack OF
eelig. There are women whose nature
IS just the same.
Every person loves in a different
way. We all know the story of the
nan who. after twenty years of mar
rage, went home one day and kissed
his wife. She ran and tearfully con-
lided to a neighbor that her husband
had gone out Of his mind!
Ia she right?

Killed By Liohtnino

OUGLAS-Lightning ended the life of Hugh Kelly, young rancher of Par adise, early yesterday evening, as he was riding from Douglas to his ranch. Kelly was riding mule and was about five miles east of Bernardino when the bolt struck him, scorching his clothing, burning his head and chest, and killing both man and mule instant ly.
 Word of the tragedy was brought into Douglas early in the evening by tourist. Chief of Police Percy Bow den, accompanied by Judge Jack and w. P. Thorpe immediately set out for the scene and brought Kelley's body to Douglas. They reported that Kelly was lying in the middle of the road with the mule lying on top of him. Death had evidently been instaneous in both cases, as there was no sign of any struggle in the mud.

OLD TIME GOLD RUSH STARTED
 AT VANCOUVER

VAN COUVER, B. C., Aug. S.-The melodrama of the gold rush, with all the color and violence of the '49 days and the Klondyke, is being staged 300 miles north of here in the bleak terri tory between the Frazer river and Car iboo mountains.
 For weeks, prospectors, miners from California and Alaska, and their fol lowing of gamblers and adventurers have painfully been making their way with pack-trains to Cedar, Spanish Lake and Rose Gulch.
 The rush has been in progress ever since three men, who staked claims there last fall, returned this spring with the news that gold had been found.
 The discovery is an echo of another rush a half century ago when Cedar Creek in two years gave up $5O,0O0,- 900 in gold to placer miners.
 Now on the site of the old towns of the past, new groups of shacks have mushroomed into being. Placer min- ing, with the crude cradle and pan of early days, is again the means of taking raw gold from the claims which were once thought exhausted but which in fact were only scraped.
 Reports of clean-ups, of strikes in the vicinity of Spanish Lake and Keithly Lake as well as near the wa ters of Cedar Creek have been coming in.
 In the feverish stampede for wealth, there have been several scenes of vii olence. Instances of claim-jumping and shooting have drifted back but no details escaped from the isolated gold lands which can only be reached after miles of horseback riding and boating.
