"I see. You held au electiou."

"Nary. We didn't want any blood. shed. Wr jes' passed The word around that the city council was goin' to be held, an' made it no open game. Every- body was there except Nevada Bill, an' be didn't dare show up because he was under suspicion of sittio' in a poker game with a private stack of blue chips which he had bought uobekoownst from a store down io San Antonio, He wasn't long uotil, uoder the iostructions of tbe teoderfoot, we had the city council goin' in good shape. Only officers wad allowed to wear their weapons durin' the perceedin's, aa' nohody was barred from debate. The first business we took up was the case of Nevada Bill. We reckoued that it wouldn't be uo more than decent local pride to prevent the importatioo of any poker chips except by the duly reco'uized authorities fur said importation. Rattlesnake Pete said the only way to make the law bindin' was ter pervide that anybody breakin' it should be shot at least once. The teoderfoot got riled io a minute. He jumped to his feet, an' got off the most loog-winded talk about coostitti. tionality an' the rights of citizenship an' whereas and therefore that I ever heard. He talked hard, on' he showed be had read books, But you orter have heard Three-Finger Sam's historie re. ply. It jes' showed how quirk a man kin end an argument. Crimson Gulch hasn't got through talkin' about it yet. Three-Finger Sam drawed hisself up to bis full height and p'juted his fin- ger at the tenderfoot. 'I don't desire 10 use linrsher words than is necessary. sity's be. "but I'd like to know what you tran. you low-down. lop-eared jack ralibut, by comin' into this town and tryin' to tell us whether a man needs shootin' or not. llave we got to walt fur some Inntern-jawed coyote to come wanderin' io off the prairie an' tell us what's good fur us? Beware!' says Three-Finger Sam, still p'intin' bis fin- ger an' growio' more eloquent every minute. "Beware, you how-legged bur- ro. Don't you think you can come bere on' overawe people because you wear specs. Have a care, or the fust thing you know you'll be travelin" out o' this town with a bunch of patriotic eltizens on your trail, every one of wbom is dead anxious to shoot a freckle off'n the back of your neck:' The tenderfoot .iln't have another word to sBy. an' he left town the next mornin"," -- Washing- on Star.

Ancient and Royal Game of Golf

Is played with various degrees of skill, but all players agree that it is absolutely essential to have a good " tee," the little mound of sand upon which the ball is placed before the drive. Start right. The result will justify the pains.

So it is with your table.

Supply it with the right sort of fea, a good tea, the best that you can buy.

If you get Chase & Sanborn's package teas, you may be sure on this point.

Their famous Orloff is noted for its lilac flavor, the Kohinoor, an English Breakfast Tea, and the Orange Pekoe, a Ceylon and India tea, famous on account of its rich wine-like body, are all equally pop- ular. They are the best of their kind.

These teas come only in pound and half-pound leaded forms, and are grown in tea gardens situated in high altitudes, which is an all im- portant factor in the production of high grade leaves.

One pound makes over 200 cups. Chase & Sanborn's Teas.

A STRIKING CARTOON.

Published by French Paper to Illes- trate Which Is the Greater Evil- Doer, the Saloon or the Bandit.

The current number of Le Bien Social has a very striking double cartoon, and beneath it is the question, "Which of the 1wo is the greatest evidloer?" The one part of the cartoon shows a bandit who has seized a traveler by the throat and is pointing a dagger at his hreast and demanding "the purse or the life." The other part shows the interior of a tavern, three of the tipplers turned round with terrified faces gazing at a man who has fallen on the floor and' now lies full length on his back; the landlord, who has been counting bis money behind the bar, looks with a horrified gaze at bis prostrate cus- tomer, while the money be has been counting drops on the floor; and from the door leading to the house part of the premises the landlady peers with staring eyes, no doubt attracted to the spot by the noise and commotion con- sequent on the man falling. Under- neath this part of the cartoon are the words: "Alcoholism demands the purse and the life." We bave said that the cartoon is a striking one, hat is it not also a true one? The victim of the high- way rohher is generally able to pur- chase his life with his money; the vic- tim of the drink robber has to sacrifice both money and life .- National Advo. cate.

The famous Benedictine monks at Beatty. Pa., have discontinued brewing beer for the market. For 40 years they have hrewed this beer and peddled it among the saloons all over the western part of Pennsivanin. The growing temperance sentiment among Catholics Is responsible, though it is said they will still hrew heer for their private use.

TYROLESE HAY BATHS.

A New Fad Which Is Taking Hold of "Our Best People" Who Imag- Ine Themselves Sick,

Latest of all hathing fads is the hay bath. Some one or other in the Tyrol devised it when be' wasn't thinking of anything else. It is a simple process, consisting merely of being immersed In fresh, uncured mountain hay. The hay must be in "burning" condition-that is, not cured. The bath is taken under roof, and not in the open air. The peas- nuts of the Tyrol, the Etschlanders especially, attach great value to the høy bath, and they consider the short hay of the mountains to he particular- ly beneficial.

One of these "cures" is on the top of the Schlern, near Voels, at an eleva- tion of a mile and a half. At this place the baths are free to the villagers, but others are charged 30 krentxers, about 20 cents American money. a week. To take a hay bath one digs a bole in the hay and crawls into it, after having divesied himself of all his clothing. The covering up process is done by a Friend or a regular attendant, and only the lead is left exposed. Some one must stay with the patient during the buth, 10 give relief, for the effect of the heat and other influences is likely to he severe, 'The beart or some other organ occasionally is hard hit during this curing process. When the patient has perspired enough be is dug out hy the attendant and rubbed down, for ly this time he usually is too weak to exert himself. though he may be able to get into his clothes unaided. At the Aidein bath two patients have been found unconscious, and their condition was serious, it heing not due to a mere fainting fit.

The Heat of the Son. It is estimated that the earth receives not more than one thousand millionth part of the total radiation of the sun's rays. If any considerable proportion of this heat were eonceutrated upon the earth it would not only hecome un- inhabitable, but hecome speedily con- sumed. If the great accumulation of ice at the north pole were placed at a point on which this tremendous heat could be focussed it would melt at the rate of three hundred millions of miles of solid ice per second, and the heat is estimated to generate energy at tbe rate of about ten thousand borse power to every square foot of surface.
