ECCENTRIC CHESTERTON.
Ht Doesn't Mind How H Dresses, and
His Wife Is His Guardian.
There is one English author at least
wbo admits quite frankly tbut be in
practically dependent on bis wife, and
tbut is big U. K. Chesterton. Like
most geulusesj-and G. K. C. ts gener
ally admitted to be one Chesterton is
too much iibHorbed in the details of
bis creutlve work to bother much with
mere business and social ones, and
bow many of bis commission would
be executed aud bow many of bis ap
pointments kept if It were not for
Mrs. C. goodneHs only kuows. She
acts as bis "business conscience" and
goes wltb .him on almost every Jour
ney.
It Is on record, however, that once
when Chesterton had a Journey to
make visitors arrived, and Mrs. Cbes-
rterton. being culled upon to play the
part of hostess, was unable to accom
pany her husband. However, she
started bim off with the words. "Now,
Gilbert, you know where you are to
lecture and what your subject is." and
Chesterton went to the railway sta
tion. Arriving there, be banged down
a sovereign at the book lug office and
said. "A ticket."
"Where for?" asked the astonished
clerk.
"Free Trade hall," replied Chester
ton. "Oh. Glasgow, then!" said the clerk,
and Gilbert, assenting, received a tick
et for that station.
Stepping Into the street at Glasgow,
he was hailed by a friend: "Hullo.
Chesterton! What are you doing
here?"
"Oh. I'm lecturing at the Free Trade
hall."
"Oh. no; you're not," said the friend.
"Oh, yes; 1 am." protested Chester
ton. "I booked the engagement some
months ago."
"But you cannot be." maintained the
friend, "for the place is being reno
vated and the painters are in."
It slowly dawued upon Chesterton
that he was at the wrong place, aud
be. further to Justify bis claim to
greatness, sent a telegram to bis wife:
"Am here. Where ought I to be?"
Even Mrs. Chesterton, however, ap
parently cannot always compass the
feat of having her rotund husband cos
tumed according to Doyle. 1 remem
ber quite vividly a soiree which 1
once attended at the Chestertons' flat
in Overstrund Mansions. Battersea,
and even more vividly how G. K. C.
was dressed. Part of his costume con-
slsted of trousers and waistcoat of a
brown .mixture and a dark red tie.
and with these he wore it is almost
incredible, yet true a dinner coat!
He was in great form that evening
and kept us all well edified and en
tertalned. I don't suppose be bad the
faintest Idea what he bad on! Hay

An Embarrassing Moment.
There are moments when a man
would sooner be anywhere than where
Qe Is.
Take the case of the young man wbo
was talking with an heiress wbo can
write cheeks wltb five figures.
"Which do you consider the most
conducive to happiness. Mr. Giggles'
worth, money or beauty?" she asked.
What could he say?
The heiress is as plain as tbe law
permits heiresses to be.
If the young man said "beanty" the
lady would be offended. If be said
"money" she might consider It a pro
posal. Then be rallied.
"navlng neither." he said. Td rath
er not be quoted." Cleveland Plain
Dealer.
Worshiping a Turtle.
At a place called Kotron. on the
French Ivory Coast, the natives be
lieve that to eat or destroy a turtle
would mean death to tbe guilty one or
slckuess among the family. Tbe fetich
men, of which there are plenty, declare
that years uko a man went to sea Ash
ing. In the ulgut bis canoe wus
thrown upon the beach empty. Three
days afterward a turtle came ashore
at the same place with the man on its
back alive and well. Since that time
they have never eaten or destroyed
one of that species. ,ulthough they en-
Joy other species.
If one happens now to bo washed
ashore there is a great commotion in
the town. First, the women sit down
and start singing and beating sticks;
next n small piece of white cloth (color
must be white is placed on the tur
tle's back. Food Is then prepared and
placed on the cloth, generally plan
tains, rice nud palm oil. Then, amid a
lot more siiiKiiia. dancing ami antics
of the fetich people, it is carried back
into the sea and goes on its way re

Inexhaustible Rome.
"Rome Is wonderful." said a man fa
miliar with the historic city. "Home Is
inexhaustible. There Is a story that
describes Itiime well.
'The pope was giving audience. He
said to a lady In black:
" 'How long have you been in Rome?
"Three weeks.' the lady answered.
"'Ah.' said the pope, 'then you have
seen Home!'
"And he turned to an American mer
chant and asked:
" 'And you. sir. how long have you
been In Home?'
" Three mouths.' the American re
plied. '"Yon. then, have begun to see
Rome." said the pope. And be next
accosted an elegant woman with gray
bair.
'"How long, madam,' he asked,
'have you been here?"
" Three years,' the woman answered.
"The potH smiled faintly.
"'You.' he said, "have not yet begun
to see Home.' "New York Herald.
Our True Moles.
In this country there are five recog
nized groups of true moles, two of
which are confined to the Pacific coast
and tbe other three are distributed
over the section east of the oue hun
dredth meridian extending from Can
adu to tbe gulf of Mexico. In tbe lat
ter districts and in the greater part of
Pennsylvania. New York and New
England the common mole occurs with
the star nosed mole and Brewer's mole.
The mole is so seldom seen even by
those who are familiar with Its work
that it Is often confused with other
small creatures, particularly the shrew,
tbe mole or meadow mouse and the
pocket gopher. However. It can be
readily distinguished by its stout, short
front limbs, ending in broad, rounded
bunds with palms turned outward. It
bus a rather elongated body, close,
plushlike fir, a pointed snout and a
Bhort tall. Neither eyes nor ears are
in evidence. It is a creature of strict
ly subterranean habits.

A hearty laugh bad gone almost

Deep Breathing. '
"Learn to sit or stand erect and

Origin of Life.
The scientific world is not in pos
session of even one fact as to tbe ori
gin of life nor of tbe origin of any
thing whatever. All animals now
start from very minute bodies called
cells. Each kind of animal has its
own fixed kind of cell. Oue kind of
cell never changes Into another. But
the origin of the cell for each kind of
animal is totally unknown. New York

SOMEONE'S GRANDFATHER, some time ago, while looking
at property with a view of buying, remarked that he "WASN'T
BUYING CLIMATE." Since that time this remark, like a good
many other sayings, has become a habit with numerous buyers.
THE FACTS ARE, that in any district, in any part of the
world that has a climate good enough to attract the attention of
the world at Jarge, YOU WILL BUY CLIMATE. And, all other
things being equal, YOU NEVER MADE A BETTER INVEST
MENT IN YOUR LIFE.
If the climate in this valley adds to YOUR COMFORT ONLY,
it is an asset hard to beat, but this is only a part of it. Climate
in this valley means more than PHYSICAL COMFORT. It means
HEALTH For the rancher, it means more accomplished on the
ranch; it means less feed for all stock in the winter season; it
means more months of good roads, and these good roads mean
better social conditions, and, why say, there is no end to the
benefits that CLIMATE spells financial benefits. That's the
reason CLIMATE is a GOOD INVESTMENT.
We of this valley have many things to offer beside climate
too many to go into details at this time. But there is one thing
we think should interest every buyer, whether he is looking for
city property or a ranch. It is this: WE DO NOT HAVE CROP
FAILURES. This is a PRODUCT of our CLIMATE.
Mr. Buyer, you can buy good land in this valley. You can
buy it reasonable more reasonably than you can buy land in
some districts, where the climate is hardly endurable. So get
away from the idea that you don't need to buy climate. You
do, and thousands of others are coming to BUY CLIMATE,
and they never made a BETTER BUY in their life.
