As the mail service only requires
seven hours of his time each day,
and that in the afternoon, he
keeps a little herd of 17 good
dairy cows, grets up before the
chickens each morning, milks his
cows, bott'es the milk delivers it
to his customers in Saltillo and
Three Springs, and gets home in
time to split the kindling, get in
coal and eat a good dinner pre
paratory to his afternoon's work.
Wives.
A wite is an ex-girl who has
realized her greatest ambition
the capture of a man who has set
tied down to show him that wo
man, woman's clubs, pink te'as,
and gowns are absolute necessi
ties, while three square meals a
day are anything else than tha.
When a wife takes a man to
raise he soon learns that sho is
his master. She doesn't tell him
sc; he jtist raystoi iuusiy absorbs
that information and the older he
grows the more established the
fact roots itself lu his mind. Al
most any man is brave enough to
go to war; he will tight a man
twice his size, but a mere look
from his wife will wilt him like a
lettuce leaf on a hot stove. No
one knows why.
Wives are peculiar animals in a
way that those belonging toother
men always look better to a man
than his own, -and, that a man
feels it is a terrible task to sup
put ono, he would have a dozea
i it were not for our laws.
It is said that a man once took
his uew tnrn son to an island
and reared him to man ho d with
out the child ever seeing a wo
man. When twenty-tlve yea-8
old, the father brought the si n
back to cml'znion. Pacing a
woman the sou aked: 'Father,
what is that thirjpY"(
"I don't know," answered the
father.
"Well I want one, anyway,"
declared the young man. -

they get over the mountain there
will be nothing but scrub-oaks
loft, in way of timber, and one of
these days, some ingenious lei
low will discover a way to extract
the tannic acid from the foliage,
brush, and roots of the scrub
oaks, and they will all be dug up.
Then great sheep and goat ranch
es will be made on our mountains
and the wool will clothe, and the
nutritious, and healthful meat,
feed the natiou.
So far as we can learn, there
will.be no Christmas entertain

Women, more than men, have excitable nerves, because
tiring work and physical strain tax their more delicate
nervous systems and bring premature age and chronic
weakness unless treated intelligently.
