There is a woman in Arizona who can

Mrs. Charnberlain can handle a rope'
with a dexterty tthat has made her fam

has spent the last eight years In the

her In the work forbears, but some of

'Mrs. Chamberlain can capture a racing
broncho with astonishing certainty and
ease. In a stampede she Is as cool aa
the best, and -few-.-are .quicker and surer
with -the rope than she.
She dresses for her work in n blouse
and bloomers and rides astride. Such
dexterty as hers would be Irhposplhle In

astonish the usflal beautyseelwr who

Then, encircled by the spinning rope,
