A COW-BOY'S LIFE.
Primitive Doings about the Camp
Fire Xot What It's Painted.
The life of the average cow-boy is
not so romantic as sometimes painted.
They- work hard, have little variety
of food, and lead a lonesome life. Of
course thej' have all they wish to eat,
such as it is, but they "do not get a
chance to step into Young's very
often, you may rest assured. While
at the home ranch theyhave some
of the comforts of life. Thev have n
chance to sleep under a roof, gener

they eat their bread and bacon and
drink their black coflee. And during

little salt. This they throw over the
horse's back. They take a skillet
and hang it to the saddle and hang a
colTe-pot to the horse's neck. Their
six-shooter is in a belt around their
waist. They ride olf fifteen or twenty
nines irom nowtiere.
The sun beginning to get low they
dismount, stake out the pony, and
proceed to get supper. Gathering a
few sotol stocks, a fire is started.
Some water is dipped up from the
puddle where the horses have been
drinking and the cattle wadinir about.
The coiTe-pot is filled and placed on
the fire to boil. Bread must be made.
The cow-boy has to have hot bread
three times a da v. Tlinv t-. nfT n

picicea out, leaving the hot grease, to
which they add a'Yittlc water, put in
flour, some baking powder and a lit
tle salt. This they stir up till it is
doughy; then they play with it a little
while with their hands. Finally it is
put back in the skillet, the cover put
on and fire placed above, below and
around. In a few moments the bread
is baked or fried. Now the festive
cow-boy eats his supper coffee, meat
and bread. The snuin fhr hrn.ilrfnqh
and the same for dinner, varied some

he leads for two or three weeks, or
till his provisions run short, and he,
getting hungry and lonesome and

the ranch for a day or two.
Cow-bovs are a brave and frnnd-
hearteu set. Their enemy is whiskv,
and they know it. Generally they
are quiet and peaceable, but leading
the free life they do, being under no
restraint, it is not to he wondered at
that when thev CO to some hnnler

a iew years ago tne western part of
this State was eiven un to Ktnokinen

radically different, and now the man
who engages in the cattle business
must buy or lease bis land. The
profits of the business will also bo

invested wholly in cattle, which paid
a large dividend, must now bo in
vested in real estate. The wlmU
business is fast settling down to a

Barning: Incense at Home.
The agreeable fashion of burning
pastilles and fragrant herbs in rooms
that are apt to grow "stuffy" in
damp weather, is almost a substitute
for a fire on the hearth, which puri
fies and cheers the whole house.
Ever since the mania for Japanese
decorations came in, there has been
a demand for the delicious pastilles
or "reeds," which are the condensa
tion of Eastern fragrance, and their
use has brought about a greater love
for aromatic odors of a refined and
purifying nature. The subtle sweet
ness permeating articles that come
from China or Japan will last for
years and gffect the atmosphere, not
merely of the room they are in, but
of the entire house. There is not a
Rimmel or a Lubin in Europe that
can produce this intoxicating, and, if
one may say so, high-bred perfume
from the Orient, try as ho may. A
bunch of Japanese pastilles, smoul
dering one at a time in a little
incense burner, will last several
weeks, while for olfactories disliking
any perfume, however delicate, a bit
of gum camphor or a little stack of
pine needles produces a most refresh
ing odor while burning. Pine needles
can bo gathered by the bushel, and
kept all winter to bo thrown on coal
fires in city houses, or burnt by them
selves in one of those little chafing
dishes for which Japanese art i3
famous. Boston Beacon.
Society la Texas.
A certain young society gentleman
of this city missed a fine opportunity
to attend a private party the other
evening in this wise : A fnKhionahl v-
dressed young lady, with whom he
naa a Blight acquaintance, met him
upon the street and sweetlv nnd
cordially invited him to become
a party to a little private entertain
ment that was to take place at her
residence on a certain night. Thank
ing the lady kindly for her invitation,
while inwardly wondering why she
had taken such a sudden and start
ling interest in him, he was about to
raise his hand at parting, when she
laid a lace mittened hand upon his
coat-sleevo to detain him, and sweetly
asked him: "Would he, if he had it
in pocket, loan her the sum of $10?"
He gasped, then stammered, and
thrusting his hand in his pocket,
drew forth $2.25, and informed her
that that was the extent of his cash
assets, but she aigb have that if it
would assist her. She disdainfully
turned away, saying, "No, that will
do me no good," and walked off, and
now our young society friend does
not know whether to attend the
private party or stay away although
the evening set for it is fast approach
ing. San Antonio Light.
