The Pictured Cowboy.
I recall one picture by a celebrated
artist of the east who does western
things. It depicts a "Cowboy at Rest"
lie is lying on his stomach lu the sun,
bis chin in bis hands. HI horse stands
nearby, with the reins tftrown over the
horn of the saddle. Now, a cowlwy la

canned tomatoes, would not He thus,
and, above all, be would not leave his
horse standing thus. lie would pull
the reins down over the horse's head
nd let them hang, elseMse his cow
horse would depart. I recall yet anoth
er picture of a faithful cowpuncher
who with his trusty rifle defends him
self from behind his dead horse, which
he uses as a fortress. The dead horse
Is about four feet and half through
sldewlse excellcut for a fortress, but
a trifle wide for a thin flanked cow
horse. It would be useless to point
out any detail like this to any earnest
artist of today. Worse than useless
would It be to suggest that a cow-
puncher Is the laziest created thing, for

Dalton's Experiment.
The English chemist Dnlton was t
schoolteacher. He worked without a
laboratory and with crude apparatus,
mostly made by himself from simple
materials. Here Is nn example describ
ed 1 his own words:
"Took an ale glass of a conical fig
ure, two and a half inches in diameter
and three Inches deep; filled It with
water that bad been standing In the
room and consequently of the tempera
ture of the air nearly; put the bulb of
the thermometer to the bottom of the
glass, the scale being out of the water.
Then, having marked the temperature,
I put the' redhot tip of the poker half
:iii inch deep in the water, holding it
there steadily for half a minute, and
as soon as it was withdrawn I flipped
the bulb of a sensible thermometer
luto the-water, when It rose in a few
seconds to 180 degrees."
He then determined the temperature
of the water at the bottom after five
minutes, after twenty minutes and aft
er an hour and found that it rose grad
ually from 47 to 52 degrees. This
simple experiment proved that water
has the power to conduct heat, which
bad been denied by no less an author
ity than Rumford. Youth's Compan

He sauntered into the central police
station and approached the desk ser
geant. There was a careworn look on
his face. He stood there a moment
as If In reverie. Finally as tears
coursed down his cheeks he timidly
said:
"I want to give myself up."
"What have you done that yon should
seek a felon's cell?" the sergeant
asked.
"I have long been a fugitive from
justice. The welfare of society de
mands that I should be punished."
"But what Is It? What heinous of-
.ense have you committed?"
"I am a bigamist yea, a polygamist
and I don't dare think what worse.
No longer must I keep It from the
world. Lock me up. I am ready to
