Y) PLUCKY MRS. VOIGHT. Alone She Bravely Attacked, Cornered aui Killed a Coyote. When forced to an issue a woman in-' variably proves herself as plucky as a man. Mrs. Rose Voight, wife of Mr. II. M. Voight. a farmer near Modesta, Cal., has just furnished an example of the courage and strength for which the women of the West have become fa mous since the clays of the pioneer. The other night Mrs. Voight's dog caught a coyote off his guard and ran him into the barn, planting himself noisily at the entrance so that his vic tim should not come without settling nccounts with him face to face. The dog knew enough not to go in after the game. When Mrs. Voight heard the dog barking so significantly she knew there was a "varmint" of some kind in trouble. She surmised also that Tow ser would not push the matter any fur ther without assistance from the house. She went to the barn and looked in. After a moment the form of the coyote became visible In a far corner, his eyes gleaming like the real story book eyes of beasts that are met In the dark. A pitchfork stood against the barn near the door. Mrs. Voight grasped this belligerently and stepped Inside. In five seconds or less there was a battle in progress In -the dark ness of the barn, and the dog stood In the door and barked the louder to en courage the affair, and perhaps also to encourage himself. The coyote, fuiily cornered and ielt no alternative, had to fight or be killed like a sheep. He snarled with a kind of hopeless defiance and showed his fangs, but Mrs. Voight was ready for him. lie had no sooner turned to face her than she jammed the fork full upon him, the prongs entering his 6houlders and running clear through him, so vigorous and well-aimed was the blow. Yet he made a leap forward, the pain from the wound adding frenzy to desperation, and almost wrenched the fork from the woman's hands as she still held it In his shoulders. She held on, however, driving the weapon If' .1 I I T i - . i 1.

It makes your cakes, biscuit, bread, etc., healthful; it assures you against alum and all forms of adultera tion that go with the cheap brands.

Flour should not be kept in a store room or pantry where there is cooked foods, as it absorbs odors. Iguorance of this fact accounts for poor bread oftener than an inferior quality of flour.

He squirmed and writhed while she held him down, her intention being to crush the life out ot him there and then. But coyotes are as hard to kill as they are to catch. Mrs. Voight had to make a new attack. She reached and caught a rope with one hand while she held the fork handle with the other, and with the rope she tied the fork to the wall In such a way that the im paled victim could not dislodge It. This left her free to go after a club, with which she soon returned and beat the animal until he was past doing any further mischief In this world. Then she released him, put a noose around his neck and dragged him to the house, where she held him as a trophy for her husband to see when he returned from the field, where he had been all day en raged In plowing.
