Wind and Temperature.
The wind does not affect the ther
mometer, as any one may hud out for
himself by a simple test. Take two
drv bulb th run m te s of exactly the
same kind and hang one of them
where it will be exposed to the wind
and the other where it will be shelter
ed—say, on two sides of the corner of
the house —and after allowing them
to hang thus for a few minutes you
will find {that they register the same.
And yet the person who stands near
the thermometer that hangs in the
wind will feel the ci Id mor smsib'y
than the person who stands near the
sheltered one.
The wind is simply air in motion,
and air in motion is no colder than
the same air in a state of rest. We
feel colder in the wind simply because
it's blowing over us takes the heat
away from the body by causing a
more rapid evaporation from the skin.
There is no evaporation from the dry
bulb of a thermometer, and therefore
the wind docs not affect it.
PROFESSIONAL EATERS.
Imlin n« Employ Suhntltutea to Con-
MU nte Food For Them.
One of the most striking customs of
the past that are preserved by the In
dians of today Is found among the
tribes on tho Devil's Lake reserva
tion In North Dakota. An official of
the Indian service gives the following
account of this peculiar practice:
"From time immemorial the Devil's
Lake Sioux have adhered to an old
custom In regard to the treatment of
a guest. According to their etiquette,
it is the bounden duty of the host to
supply his gucist with all the food he
may desire, and as a rule the appor
tionment set before the visiting Indian
is much In excess of the capacity of a
single man.
"But by the same custom the guest
Is obliged to eat all that Is placed be
fore him, else he grossly Insults his
entertainer. It was found that this
practice would work a hardship, but
instead of dispensing with the cus
tom the Indian method of reasoning
was applied, and what is known as the
professional eater was brought to the
front.
"While the guest is supposed to eat
all that Is placed before liiin, it serves
the same purpose If Ills neighbor as
sists in devouring the bountiful repast,
the main object being to have the
plate clean when the meal is finished.
"It is not always practicable to de
pend upon a neighbor at table to as
sist in getting away with a large din
ner, and in order to insure the final
consumption of the allotted portion
visiting Indians call upon these pro
fessional eaters, whose duty it Is to
sit beside them through a meal and
eat what the guest leaves. The pro
fessional eaters are never looked upon
In tho light of guests, but more as
traveling companions with a particu
lar duty to perforin.
"These eaters receive from $1 to $2
and even $0 for each meal where they
assist. It Is stated by the agent of
the Devil's Lake reservation that one
of the professional eaters has been
known to dispose of seventeen pounds
of beef at a sitting. That they are
capable of eating an almost fabulous
amount 1 myself can testify."—Hy

"SLEEPY" WOODCHUCK.
The Little AnlntnU Are Far MOM
Alert Thun They Appear.
If there is any one of our native ani
mals that looks slow, clumsy, lazy
and generally unfit to survive In the
struggle for existence It is the wood
• chuck. After he has built, or rather
excavated, his home—which, to tell
the truth, ho does in a rapid and busi
nesslike way—he does nothing but eat
and sleep. Yet any one who sizes him
; up as an Incompetent is likely to get
fooled, for he is a source of continual
, surprises.
When your garden Is not far from
• the woods you may be awakened in
' the middle of the night by a series of
I most alarming yells and howls, oe-
cnsloned by some hungry woodchuck
that has come for a nocturnal visit to
the cabbage patch and met with a
warm reception from your dogs. The
woodchuck usually gets away appar
ently unharmed, while the dogs are
left to nurse their scratched noses and
fore paws. The woodchuck. In fact, has
plenty of courage and will always fight
in preference to running away.
Throughout the summer this little
"wood pig" spends most of his time in
the vicinity of his burrow, coming out
early in the morning to take his break
fast, returning to his nest for a morn
ing nap, appearing again at noon and
late in the afternoon for his dinner and
supper, only to return again for an
other snooze. Occasionally he makes
a visit to some neighboring orchard or
garden. By Oct. 1, when he is fat, he
retires into his subterranean home for
a long sleep, until, as we are led to be
lieve, the proverbial "ground hog" day.

Took Hint For it Gentleman.
A bookseller In New York city tells
a story which admirably illustrates
the tact and humor of Bernard Qua
ritcb, the London dealer In books and
manuscripts. The New York man vis
ited Quaritch's shop for the purpose of
obtaining a number of valuable scien
tific works. After making his selection
he stepped up to Mr. Quariteh and
asked the price. As Mr. Quariteh be
gan to quote the figures the American
Interrupted him, Saying: "Hut I am a
dealer myself. What are the trade
prices?" "Oh," replied the famous
bookman, "I thought you were a gen
tleman." The American was taken
aback for a moment, but only for a mo
ment. for Mr. Quariteh held out his
hand and said smilingly: "But I am
delighted to find that you are not only
n gentleman, but a dealer as well. The
trade discount Is one-third off."

The Weakrwss
Of an Amazon
[Copyright. 1904, by K. M. Whitehead.]
"Would you object to telling me your
reason for wanting to marry me?" she
asked 111 an aggressive tone that qua
vered into pathos.
Such an unexpected answer caused
Barnard to rise from his chair some
two or three Inches before he remem
bered that It Is the unexpected that al
ways happens. He sat down carefully,
j having achieved a calm that implied
that hers was the generally recognized
| method of answering a proposal.
I "\\ by—er—for the same mason that
other men have asked you to marry
them, 1 suppose—because I care more
for you than for any one else."
"The others," she said slowly, "have
had various motives. There haven't j
been so very many," she added, as if |
constrained to be honest.
"I have known you so short a time
I could not be aware of that. I should
never have believed It without your j
assurance."
The hardness of her face relaxed
slightly. "You are the fourth," she
said shortly.
"Will you tell me why the other three J
failedV" softly.
She leaned back In her easy chair
and grasped Its arms wlfh a nervous,
awkward movement. Barnard noticed
the strong, white hands, larger than
his by far.
"Do men ever love a woman that
weighs 195 pounds?" she asked bitterly.
"I have known one man that aceoui- j
plished the feat." He smiled in her ;
eyes encouragingly.
"One couldn't feel an lucUnatlon to
hold a hand of that size. It's uncom- i
fortable In a 0% glove." She held the
offending member before him as If she
could cheerfully have amputated the
left one and have overtaken the right
with a similar fate before they com
municated to each other any knowl
edge of their various doings.
"The man 1 mentioned feels a trou
blesome inclination to hokl that very
hand," he laughed.
"You are old enough to have acquir
ed better tnste," she retorted censori
ously. "How old are you, by the way?"
"Born exactly forty-nine years and 1
three months ago."
"I don't object to that," leniently.
"It makes me feel somewhat better, I
think. A woman of thirty-live likes to
feel young even by comparison."
"I'm sure I'll never object to com- ;
parisons in our family. If it pleases'
you we'll turn down Mr. Shakespeare's
opinion concerning them."
"In all my thirty-live ytars"— she
began.
"You seem proud to enumerate them.
You might knock off five without any
one suspecting," eying her with the
air of an expert.
"Simple honesty shouldn't be caught
embezzling," she smiled, with a sense
of good comradeship. Her hands re
laxed from their grip on the chair aud
fell more comfortably upon her lap.
"Didn't the other three think it
would be rather nice?" He loolied
meaningly at the hand nearest him.
"I don't think anybody ever wanted
to," she answered simply. "I look too
much like the sturdy oak and have re
ceived none of the tenderness that falls
to the lot of clinging vines. Of course
there are storms from which the oak
might like to be sheltered. I don't like
my masculine manner—l hate it," ve
hemently—"but it gives a better effect
than if I tried to he kittenish. A hun
dred and ninety-five pound kitten
would run such a serious risk of being
mistaken for a giddy elephant."
"Precisely," he agreed.
"But even a feminine elephant might
long to be admired occasionally and—
l«yed."
"Didn't the other three ever"— lie
gently stroked the firm, white hand.
"Thej' didn't want to," she blushed
furiously.
"But why, then"— he commenced.
"Oh, one of them was a widower and
said It was so expensive having all the
sewing done out for four children."
He frowned sympathetically.
"The seeond wanted a partner to
help run a boarding school."
He nodded.
"The third was a preacher and
thought It was not good for man to
live alone. He didn't seem to think
dyspeptic tendencies and an insuffi
cient Income obstacles to prevent his
finding a companion with all ease. 111
fact, his manner was full of assurance
that I would Jump at the chance. None
of them, nobody In all my life, ever
really cared for 111* They only want
ed me to help them do something."
Her eyes were full of tears. "1
would like some one to love me as
they do the pretty little woman. I
am just as affectionate and tender
hearted as if I were little and dainty"
—her lip quivered—"and—l—want—to
be loved--and to be—like them." She
covered her face with her hands.
He sat down on the arm of the easy
chair with an air that was Joyous and
youthful.
"Dear little woman," ho said, ignor
ing the fact that the shoulders shaken
by sobs were broad as his own, "the
other three needed killing. I would
love to slay them for you one by one,
but unfortunately there Is a law
against It. I will content myself re
joicing that their lack of appreciation
left a chance for the fourth one." He
smoothed the hair gently from her
forehead. "The fourth man loves
you," he said, with a simplicity of
words strong In feeling.
She slowly raised her head and look
ed in his face. In her eyes was shin
ing the same expression that men have
often seen in the eyes of thoss mors
favored women she envied. The ama
zon sank into Insignificance; the wo
man came into her own triumphantly.
"Sweetheart!" he said.

Hunting Rabbits.
Did you ever take a day off ecouring
ttie fields and plodding through high
weeds and briars and thorns in quest of
the nimble, fleet footed cottontails, ar.d
get your hands scratched and pricked,
and then return home hungry and tired
and only too ready to accept a light n.eal
and hurry off to bed? Well, that was
the case with Mr. Harry Ritter, the
clever compositor of The Intelligencer,
accompanied by hii faithful dog "Pearl"
and your humble correspondent. *We,
the successful trio, boarded a I)., L.
W. train on Monday, and landing at
Cameron in excellent spirits. The day
was all that could be expected : the
gentle rays of the sun were just warm
enough to make it pleasent for bunny to
be out, while the cool and invigorating
breeze was just what could l>e devoutelv
wished.
Arriving at the "happy hunting
grounds," Harry was soon engaged in
"kicking out" the favorite game, and it
was not long until our wish was gratified,
for out jumped a rabbit, when bang went
two guns, and as we were not expect
ing the surprise bunny escaped into a
honey-combed nest just as the reporter
poured a volley of shot into the fleeing
animal. Then meandering further down
the river, we were more fortunate and
succeeded in bagging three cottontails,
which was considered a good day's work.
We then returned; home perfectly de
, lighted with the jolly, never-to-be-for
gotten outing. COMRADE.

There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-

wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing

wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled togo often
iuring the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
