Of her chief charms Miss Mack tells
me that she takes special care Of
them to protect them from makeup
and from the effect Of working under
the strong lights necessary In the
making of pictures. She gives her
eyes a daily bath with warm boric
acid made up in 10 per cent solu-
ton. Every morning she stimulates
them with applications Of ice water
on the lids and then exercises them
for i've minutes. The exercises con-
sist Of rolling the eyes about, looking

She keeps her brows and lashes soft

A Little Saturday Talk.

FEW years ago I had an Office

1 different part Of the building

lar members of the staff. The di.
rector, a kindly man, had 1t pre-
pared especially for me, so that ]
could have a quiet place in which
to do my writing.
Outside the door was large animal
a stuffed African elephant with a
height Of more than II feet, one Of
the largest elephants ever shot. Play
fully called it my little watchdog. u
The plan was to place the elephant
on general view, but for the time be-
ing it was kept in q hall which was
not ready for public exhibition. Often
people would open the doorway of
that unused hall just to get a peep
at the giant.

old timer knows consisted Of the one
hundred sixty acre homestead" and as
much of Uncle Sans grazing land as
was necessary to run ones livestock.
Springs or water holes were the chief
requirements in selecting ones range.
It was now the task Of the hands
to locate such water and place the diff
ferent bands of sheep, building small
log cabins al the water holes in
which the herders were to live-moving
from one cabin to the other once a
month. We ladies we're located, there
was no question about that, so the men
folks left us, while they were to build
the cabins-within a radius Of five to
Is miles.
Tongue can not tell, nor language
express how bereft we were, not a sign
of human habitation greeted u eyes
and indeed, there was no one within
miles-nothing but the brown earth and
blue sky-which we later learned to
appreciate.
We lived in mortal terror of, we
knew not what, chiefly Indians. The
Cheyennes had but recently come up
from Indian territory and established
themselves not far away. While we
busted ourselves decorating OUR one
o cabin and did the fall sewing as
customary in those days, at inter-
walls each day we would look through
the field glass here and there to make
sure that this or that group of pine
trees on the hills in the distance were
really not Indians coming to attack us.
At night we fell asleep, only through
just terrified exhaustion and then one
day a band of Indians really came

locked the door and feeling that our

today as the day it occurred, almost so
years ago.
There were many similar incidents,
but we gradually became accustomed
to the ways of the west. The winter
was fairly mild and there was no loss
of livestock, although no n had hay.
The writer is the sole survivor of that
outfit that wintered at the 20 Ranch
in 1884 including the trail herd.
The summe of 1885 a school was es-
tablished and some of us rode horse
back to the little log school house six
miles away. Distance means nothing
to youth and some of the most pleasant
memories of my life are associated with
that little log school house. Previously,
I had attended school in Miles City

ed" from the intense heat of the sum-
mer, to a beautiful tan O brOwniSh
hue, while the cottonwood trees stood
out along the river banks in an even
more vivid green and the red shale
covered hills added their marvellous
beauty, to the brown rolling hills. Over
all there is ever the canopy of the blue
sky, cloudless for days-often months
at a time.
About September 18th they arrived
at Forsyth, where the sheep were fer
ried across to the south side of the
Yellowstone, and in about four OF five
days reached their location, which "A.
D." had previously selected on the Rose
bud, at a point 81 miles south of the
site, where, a few years before, General
Custer had taken command of that
gallant little band Of soldiers who were
destined to meet such tragic fate on the
Little Big Horn-some rs or 80 miles
away.
Arriving, it was now time to send
for the "wimmin folks" and right here
we wish to challenge that age old con-
tention Of the west, that women and
wire fences ruined this country, except
the wire fences. We were met at Rose
bud, Sept. Is, 1884, by one of the ranch
hands" who was driving four horses,
hitched to a heavy double box wagon.
And after loading with supplies for the
ranch we were told to climb to the
seat which we did, somehow, and pro-
ceeded up the valley.
What a panorama spread before our
eyes that beautiful September day as
we rode along the buffalo trails that
had been so recently deserted by the
buffalo themselves. Sun tan colored
bluffs, peaks and rolling brown hills,
covered with an abundance of grass
enough to supply the whole livestock

their number came to the window and
pressing their faces against the pane,
saw us. BY this time we were paralyzed
and nothing mattered much. They made
motions for us to come to the door,
which we did, seeing the terror on our
faces, I suppose, they mercifully laid
down their guns as a signal of friendli-
ness.
Their leader said me crow" (this re-
assured us somewhat as we knew the
Crows were friendly and by words and
signs, inquired If we had seen any of
their ponies. We had not and they
rode away. Anyhow, we had survived
our first encounter with the Red man.

Late in May, 1897, a la by the name
of Hoover who was herding sheep for
John Barringer, was killed by the In
dians-not 20 miles away. The body
vas not found for many days. When
found, the ranchers became very much
enraged and excitement ran high. The
settlers were ordered by Sheriff John
Glib (Custer county, to leave their
ranches for the sake of safety. About
$50 men, women and children gathered
at a ranch half way between Lame Deer
and Rosebud, after travelling all night
in heavy wagons and on horseback. A
leader was chosen to direct any further
movements and called for volunteers
to take the women and children to o
place Of safety. While these were very
brave men, they volunteered a man to
go with the women folks. Seeing that
there would be no men left to help
fight the Indians, a camp was organ
lied there. Guards and sentinels were
chosen and n man was detailed to go
to Miles City for a supply Of rifles and
for the encampment. Food
supplied by donations from an
This camp was maintained in a very
war-hke manner for about ten days.
Meanwhile a neighbor came to the
ranch and inquired for MI. Philbrick,
who was away at the time. He then
hastily wrote a message, sealed the
same-requesting that it be delivered
to MI. Philbrick. He had no sooner
left than I, woman-ike, opened the
letter. and found it contained Sheriff
Gibbs orders to leave. Instantly I pro-
ceeded to obey orders. Summoning the
cook and her husband we gathered
clothing and such valuables as seemed
most urgent to protect, and with my
three small children we started down
the Rosebud.
When we had driven about is miles
suddenly coming around a curve, we
met a band Of Indians Mortified, for
we thought we were surrounded By
Indians, we hastily admonished the
children to lie down in the wagon boz
and requested the driver to hurry past

able, undefinable tasks that are a part
OF ranch life then, as well as now, made
colorful by occasional visits from the
Indians, including Chief Two Moons,
who led the Cheyennes in the Custer
battle. Early in June, 1890, while alone
on the ranch, Mr.. Sharp, from Ton
que river called to inquire about some
horses and asked if I were alone, and If
I was afraid of the Indians. Saying
that the people on Tongue river and
upper Rosebud were all leaving their
ranches, that a man by the name of
Ferguson had been killed by the In
dams on the upper Rosebud. Sensing
my alarm, he then tried to explain
that, very likely, there was no cause for
fear, and rode away. This was about
S o'clock p. m. Terrified, I began to
make plans to move the following day.
Somehow, for the night, I hung quilts
up to cover the two small windows, so
that my lamplight could not be seen,
and prepared to await the coming of
dawn. About midnight I heard a rap
on the door. I was speeches.. Scarcely
breathing-for what seemed many min
utes-a voice called my name. He had
heard of the possible uprising and had
ridden many miles to reach home. The
following day, We moved to aTneighbor-
ing ranch where there were two men
and the three planned that they could
stand off" quite a bunch of Indians.
That night we spent in reloading a dish
pan full of shells that had been picked
up from time to time on the target
practice ground at Fort Keogh.
After the shells were all loaded and
the stories all told, towards morning we
prepared to sleep, when suddenly We
heard horsemen. Thinking the Indians
were upon us, the men rushed out. with
rifles in hand while we ladies waited in
breathless terror. The disturbance prov

ing dispatches from Washington, D. G..
via Rosebud to Lame Deer agency. Al
ready troops from Fort Keogh had been
sent to the Agency to await further Or
ders from Washington. After about a
week of mild rumors and untold terror
we all settled down to normal again.
It was never learned just what In
dams killed Ferguson.
Later in the fall $500 Hugh Boyle,
a boy about II years Of age, who had
come from the east to visit relatives
living near Lame Deer, was killed by
the Indians. Two young braves con
fessed the murder but would not sur
render. Instead, they agreed to ride
out on the hills and meet the soldiers
in battle. This they did, about four or
five days after the murder, shooting as
they rode. The command vas given for

traditions. Owing to the prompt man

ranchers were not much disturbed, and

Mr.. Philbrick had purchased the i'm
provements on a one hundred sixty acre
homestead, 80 miles up the Rosebud,
and Feb. 16, 1887, w were married. On
March z, just as the winter was begin
ming to break, we started up the Rose
bud with all our earthly possessions
consisting of a team of horses, a heavy
wagon, loaded with supplies, and nine
head of horses which We had purchased
of the late c. B. Taylor of Forsyth. I
drove the team while Mr.. Philbrick
drove the horses, the snow being deep
and travelling difficult, but to me the
nine head of horses were Arabian
steeds, the nucleus of a herd that would
be second to none in the territory, in
quality and number. OF this
vision was later shattered. Arriving at
the log shack late in the evening, after
a long hard drive, we found a dirt"
floor and snow banks in the corner and
such paraphernalia as a bachelor might
accumulate, strewn about the room
four chairs, a table, a stove resting on
two legs, the others were bricks turned
up on end. I shall always wonder
where those bricks came from. We al
so found a cupboard consisting of a
100-pound "Arbuckle" coffee box nailed
to the wall with shelves inserted con-
tanning a few bald faced" dishes, and
above all else, a can of Snowflake"
baking powder. Mr.. Philbrick said he
would take care of the team and I could
prepare supper. It was then that I
came to earth, for I knew nothing about
cooking and I must confess that, for the
moment I was utterly lost. However,
thanks to the recipe on that can of
baking powder. I made some biscuits
and prepared the supper which was as
suredly meager.
Our nearest neighbor was about two
miles away but n day the lady came
and instructed me in the art of bread
making and taught me how to make a
pie, for which to this day, I am most
grateful.
