THE OLD SETTLER.
Vi wandered oil over the country.
Prospectiug and digging for gold;
I'd tunneled, hydroliked and cradled,
And I had been frequently sold.
For one who makod ricbes by minin?,
Knowing that hundreds j;row poor,
I made up my miud to try fanning
The only occupation that's sure.
So rolling my grab in my blankets,
I left my tools ou the ground,
And started one morning to shank it
For a country they called Puget Sound.

iid covered all over with timber
Thick as hair on the back of a dog.
As I looked on the prospect so gloomy,
Tho tears trickled over my face,
For I felt that my travels hajl brought me
To the edge of the junytig off place.
I took up a claim in the forest,
And set myselfdown to hard toil,
For two years I chopped and I uig','ered,
But I never got down to the soil.
I tried to get out of the country,
But poverty forced me to stay,
Until 1 became en old settler,
Then nothing could drive me awcy.
(.nd now that I'm used to the climate,

No longer the slave of ambition,

And I think of my unhappy condition,
Surrounded by nothing but clams.

Your husband's wardrobe will
frequently require repairs in the
way of buttons. Always leave tha
needle,- thread end button Lag
where he can get them. .
If your husband complains that
you cannot cook as his mother
does, comfort himith the reflec
tion that you probably will by the
time you are as old as she is.
Many women make a practice of
protesting against the word "obey"
in the marriage service after the
marriasCSis taken place. This is
a mistake. Do not protest against
it. Quietly ignre it.

odor of tobacco while he was court

If you need a pair of new shoes
say nothing about them, but get
the money for something else, and
then wlAseie is away slip ontau nd
select the shoes yourself. Even a
pair of sevens look small to a man
so long as he docs not know the
number.
If you have a pet dog always
keep him around, and then when
youi0 husband relaxes his atten
tions fly to the dog for comfort,
hugging and kissing him right be
fore your lug band. If he gets
mad and kicks the dog, it will bo
a sure sign that he still loves you.
Remember that getting married
s no reason mat you should shut
yourself up in the house. Accept
all invitations just the same as be

WOOL GROWING.
Santa Rosa island, thirty miles
from Santa Barbara, California, is
owned by the great sheep raiser,
A. P. Moore, who has 80,000 sheep
that pastu upon it. The island
is twenty-four miles in length and
sixteen in breadtl and contains
about 74,000-flcresof land, which
are abalie3!idapted to sheep
raising. Last June 1014 sacks of
wool were clipped from these
ih: j,y i ticIt ' -tmt.-'gy.cntaiiniig na
average o$) -$0 pounds of wool,
making a total of .415,740 pounds,
which he sold at 27 cents per
pound, bringing him in $113,o49.b0,
or a clear profit, it is reported, .of
over $80,000. The island is divided
into four quarters by fences mi
ning clear across at right angles,
and? the sheep have not to be
herded like those ranging about
the foothills. Four men aro era
ployed the year round to keep the
ranch in order, and too look after
the sheep, and during shearing
tiny fifty or inore shearers are em
ployed. These men seeure'urty
or fifty days' work, and the average
number of sheep sheared a day is
about ninety, for which live cents
a clip is paid, thus $4.60 a day be
ing made by each man, or some
thing over 200 forQthe reason, or
over $400 99 days out of the
year. Although sheading of ninety
sheep a day is the average, a great
many will go as high as 110, and
one manias bet'r1 known to shear
125. In the shearing of these 80,
000 sheep, 100 or more are injured
to such an extent 03 to necessitate
their being killed, feWa3w.i'dnid
meat are of course turned into
profit.
Although no herding is neces
sary, about200 cr more trained
goats are kept on the inland con
tinually, which take the place of
shepherd dogs. Ylienevar the an
imals are to be removed from one
quarter of tho island to euother,
the man in charge takes out with
him several coats. .The noat.
through itd training, understands
what is wanted, aud immediately
runs to the baud and the sheep wc
cept it a- their leader, foSowing
wherever it goes. The goat in turn
follows the man to whatever point
he "wishes to take the band. To
prevent the shS'p from contracting
disea.se it is necessary toive them
a washing twice a year. The own
er having bo many on hand, Was
bliged to invent sovb way of ac-
X'ompiisning this whereby not near
ly so much expense would be in
curred and time wasfWSs After
experimenting for some time he
had a ditch dug eight feet in depth,
a little over one ftx)t in width,
and 100 feet long." In this he 'put

animals are compelled to swim
through to the further end, thus
securing a bath and taking their

The ownerof the island and the
sheep a few "years ago purchased
the property for $600,000. gOwing
to ill health he has rented irto his
brother for 8150,000 a year. He
still retains an-jnterest in the Santa
Cruz island ranch, which is about

On Catalina island, sixty miles
east of Santa Barbara, are 15,000
sheep, and on Clemenia island,
eighty miles east of that city, are
10,000 sheep. Forty miles west of

tains, will iSid cause for wonder nt
eeeing, in places most diffigult of
access, towns of substantial build
ings, of which tho material could
not have come from anywhere in
the neighborhood. And yet they
may be hundreds of miles from a
railroad!
The whole of that town has beu
carried there, and most of it on tho
Vjjwcka o houses and mules. In
wWit are called pack-trains they
have carried the bricks that made
the houses and all that the houses
contain over journeys that may
have taken weeks to make, and
through places wre the chances
were that, before the train0gotes
past, some of the animals would
go over a precipice.
A regnJcir freight train will swib-8
times have fifty animals, generally
all mules, although horses are
used. Mules are to be preferred,
not because of greater surenoss of
ot,TL)ur the reason that their
.nicks are more level, so that they
are not liable to be chafed by their
loads. A mule can carry from 200
to C00 pounds, but those that can
bear tl greater weight are excep
tional animals.
The crazy EmiiCror. Paul I. of
Russia, during one of his drives,
mot a soldier whose countenance
pleased him. "Come into my car
riage, lieutenant," said Paul. "Sire,
I am only a 'private." "The em-
leror is never mistaken, captain.
"I obey your ordej, sire." "Very
good, commandant. Take your
seat by my side. What lovely
weather we have to-day 1" "Sire, I
dare not venture" "What are
you saying, colonel?" Unluckily
for the new-mado colonel, tho em
peror had to be back to the palace
early that morning. If the drive
had continued a few minutes
longer his chance companion would
have been made field-marshal. As
it was, he was obliged to content
himself with the grade of major
general. But a few days afterward
the same poor wretch, picked up
by the emperor in exactly the
same way, had to go through the
same gradations of rank, only in
the reverse direction, and in half
an hour from being a major-general
had to become a private soldier
again. On another occasion, sPaul,
while reviewing a raiment which
did nor please him, gave tfie word
of command, "Right about face!
March! Ta Siberia!" And he-
whole reginS-nt, officers and mej
were objjged to set off by forced
marches for Siberia. It wa's only
when they got half way there that
Count Rostopchine chained their
recall.
A traveler recfntly put up at a
Montana lel, and shortly before
laylight, he was arousetl bv a ter
rible commotion. His door was
thrown open, and somebody
plunged into the room, shouting,
in thrilling tones: 'Indians, In
dians; quick, for "your life! The
Indians are upon us!" Tho bed
clothes were whisked off the bed.
and the mysterious inixoilpi van
ished. Tha man coofyrose,
picked up tfie bed-clothes from the
floor, put them back in their place,"
crawled into bed again, and was
soon enjoying fi comfortable nap.
Presently a hand shook him gently.
He looked uilmito the anxious face
of the landlord. "Say, mister, it's
six o clock; vou 11 have to tret up.
Why, what's the mater?" "Well.
