To sco u horse when out nt puHltiro rolling on tho ground and endeavoring to turn over on his buck l n common sight, but how many people havo no ticed tint In doing this lie observes nn Invnrlable rule? Tho rule Is that lie always rolls over cltlior at the first pr third attempt uever nt the second and more than three attempts are never mndc. In other words, If tho horso succeeds In rolling over at the first try. well and Rood that satisfies him. Hut If tho ttrst attempt Is a fall tiro tho second one always Is. Then he cither rolls quite over nt tho third of gives It up. He never mnkes a fourth. If horses nro rolling on slop ing ground they usually roll uphill. Thin is moro ensy of explanation than the strange custom regulating the number of attempts. As to this no adequate reason has ever been offered. Will those ingenious pcoplo who tell us Why a dog turns nround beforo lying down and why ducks walk bchlud cqch other In a string Instead of abreast explain why a horso novcr makes four attempts to roll over and never succeeds at tho second? Ex-change By MARION GOLDDERQ. Copyright, 1910, by American Press Asso ciation. Marlon Hathaway, though sho was not Interested In the rights of women, was deeply Interested In tho rights of a woman, and that woman was her self. Miss Hathaway was twenty-six years old and unmarried when It sud denly occurred to her that thcro was one right belonging to her that she had been denied, not by any law, but by the most Imperious of all rulers, custom. "A man," sho said, "may say with Impunity. 'I'm looking for a wife.' but lot n woman say tho same thing about a husband and sho would bo consid ered Immodest In tho extreme. Indeed, her statement would bo he'd up to rldl- culo and would defeat her purpose to marry. Furthermore, a man may nsk a dozen women ono nftcr another to marry him, whllo n woman Is forbid den to ask oven one man. Now, I'm not going to submit to such Injustice any longer. I wish a husband, homo and children. I know tho man I should like to marry. 1 dccltno to angle for him. I'm going to assume with regard to him tho same privilege ho has assumed toward mo. I shall propose marriage." Mr. Archibald IIowo was tho man to whom Miss Hathaway decided to pro pose. Ho was thirty-two years old, doing a good business and of good standing both socially and as a citizen. Miss Hathaway had nn Income or $1,000 n year. In a business point of vlow tho elements for n partnership existed. The question In tho lady's mind was this: First, had the man over thought of her as ono be would Hko to mnrry: second. If not, could sue lead him to so think of her? Ho was permitted to discover her feelings for him. Why should sho not bo permitted to learn his for her? All this reasoning was well enough. but to put It Into practho was another matter. Miss Ilathuway winced at tin first fine. A bravo way to act In the enso was to sond for Mr. Howe nnd mnko her proposal by word. Her feel ings constrained her to do It by letter Diseases of Fear. If you are ailllctcd with nn unreason able fear of anything do not wasto tlirio being ashanicd of yourself; hurry at onco to a doctor, advises n writer In Success Magazine.

HALL. Copyright, 1010. by American Press Association. Tho editor of the Excelsior Magazine sat nt his desk opening envelopes con taining contributions, uunning over tho sheets of one to discover If It enmo within the prescribed length, ho found between two of them a hair. It was too long for a man's hair nnd too short for a woman's. Hut It must bo one, or the other, nnd since the manuscript wns sent In by a woman ho concluded thnt It had belonged to the latter. It wns not black or brown or red; It wns golden. And tho name of the girl on whoso head It had doubtless grown was Nathalie Hose Arrowsmlth. Hut perhaps this was fictitious. Tho Kxcelslor Magazine was pub lished In the far west, where women, being comparatively scarce, nro appre ciated. Possibly It was this that led tho editor to dream over tho golden hair and Nathalie Hose Arrowsmlth. Ho was a young man of Ideal tastes. Ho wns not tho owner of tho period ical, but nn employee whoso business It wns to select such contributions as would fit In between ccrtnln other ntnple matter. He possessed literary discrimination, but was awnro that this delicate faculty was not considered In fixing his Halnry. What wns expected of him was to read tho manuscripts that camo In to sco that there wns nothing In them calculated to offend uny of tho magazine's patrons, select ing thoso that would lit tho empty spaces. That a good nnmo for Miss Arrow- smith would be "the fair one with the golden locks" gradually Insinuated It self li'" tho young editor's mind. He estimated the length of her produc tion nud, finding it within limits, laid It aside for acceptance In caso It con tained nothing objectionable. Mean while his operative mentality was on his work, but his Ideal faculties those nkln to soul were on "tno fair ono with the golden locks." Uy the time ho had read her manuscript he hnd con jured up a poetic, aesthetic condition thnt cnnblcd him to sec in It the high est degrco of literary merit. The Ian- FOLLOWING THE BAND.

A ncro. parade block ed tho street negroes in carriages, on horseback, on foot; negroes with swords nnd nxes, stumpy negroes with Masonic banners, lean negroes with Pythian devices, fat negroes with Odd Fellows' Insignia, miscellaneous ne groes with miscellaneous emblems. Tho Philadclphlnn pushed through tho crowd nnd ran back In great ex citement. "What's it nil about? What nro they doing?" Tho southerner couldn't explain, but beckoned to n very Intelligent young negro who, by tho. way, was n promi nent politician nnd nuked, "Tom, what's tho occasion for all this pa rade?" , Tho young negro laughed. "Now, Jcdgc, you ought to know dnt n nigger don't need no 'enslon for a parade." Tom had spoken n mouthful. Pag eantry appeals to the negro's tropical imagination.

Whon Mr. Howo's card was handed her tho noxt evening sho cnught sight of hor fnco in n mirror. Dismay was written on every feature. She was n strong character, though with n tend ency to enter upon Innovations that only the concurrent opinion of lnrge communities' can effect. At nny rate. she wns determined and. having once put her hnnd to the plow, would not turn back. Hut It required leu min utes before her heart boat would sub side to n normal rnte. nt the end of which time she descended tho stair- Caso nnd entered the drnwing room Her heart had recommenced lls'ltcttle- dmm performance and her knees threatened to let her down on the tloor. Thnt woman's nature bad something to do with tho custom of proposals for tho first tlmo rushed upon her with grent force. Mr. nowo rose, she me chanically extended hor hand, he re sumed hts scat, nnd she sank on one end of n sofa, "What enn I do for you?" asked tho visitor. Miss Uothawny's reply was u shiver. "A matter of charity?" usked the gentleman after n pause to help her out "Woll yes In n wny." "For whom or what do you nsk old?" "Myself." Mr. Howe looked surprised. "I havo sent for you, Mr. Howe," she continued, with ovory Bhow of resolu tlou, "In order that I may do some thing something very disagreeable. and I wltih you to help mo." "Something dlsngreenblol" "Very." "Is It something wo can do togeth er?" "No: n; . v the other umst do It." "I shall be very happy to do It for you If I can." "Thut's HupoHslblo." Mr. IIowo thought n bit boforo Bay ing: "If nuo or the other must do It, nud I enn't do It. I don't sco but that y must do It yourself," Miss Unthawny didn't look us If su could. Tell mo," milled tho.callcr, "what It Is nud I'll sco what I can do for you," Ho roRo from his scat nnd snt down bcsldo her. "No; I havo resolved to do It myself, and I will." "Proceed." Miss Unthawny gathered hor facul ties for a beginning. "Did you over think of mo that Is, lu the friendship thnt has oxlstod bo- twoen us 1ms It ovor occurred to you"- Sho stopped. Mr. Howe was looking nt her In tently. Her bosom was heaving; hor oyes woro like those of n hunted fawn. It occurred to him thnt ho would like to put his arms about her, take her head on bin shoulder and comfort her. "I Imvo freely resolved," sho wont on. with u gasp, "nlways to remain slnglo." "Indeed!" "Yes. And I have thought that wo might dovoto ourselves to some world's work together." Ho gazed upon hor, still Intently, for some moments, then paid; "Yes. nnd that work will bo to build up n homo for otirselvos." Bho turned her face up to him light crra to Tuscaloosa, anil In Mq It was nRtln u smllt, and said; leiopvea, thin tlmti to; tfqVttfombry I 'hVf o, 1 knoV I could do It" ing it ns correctly ns If sho had kept n cowboy's bonrdlng house. There were Rattlesnake Hill nnd Mexican Pete, ns "bad men ns over fanned a 15 or twisted n bowie." Thon there was Cactus Kate, not ovcrpnrtlcular In her loves, but "n heart ns big as Table mountain." The story wnp available, but when the editor contemplated offering the management's Unlit of compensation for such productions $2.G0-r-hs whplo Ideal naturb sickened. Yet what could ho do? Any suggestion to pay nn ad ditional sum for n, literary gem would only meet with u snarl from his chief and the remark that, "wo nlu't In this yore business to edecnte authors, but for dust." Ho concluded to soften the blow for tho fair ono with the golden locks by writing her n letter of npolo gy fqr offering her so pitiful n sum for her production, If he had stopped at this there, need have been no harm done. All editors kindly Insert feather beds under strug gllng authors before knocking them down. It's a feature of tho business Hut the gold strand had stuck In his head, and ho ndded some "soft stuff." no Inclosed tho proprietor's check for tho prlco to be pnld nnd sent the whole away with n llutterlng heart. A few days later tho young editor heard n stentorian volco in tho man ngcrs pnvnte room debating some question with nil the Intensity of Inn gunge of Rattlesnake Hill or Mexican Pcto In the story. Then tho manager called tho editor Into his oillce. There stood a strapping cowboy whoso yel low nnir nung uown under uis som nrcro.

"Bo you the kid as writ that?" Iu asked, holding forth the editor's npolo gctlc message. Tho editor stood stupefied.

A Scotch 8hepherd's Remedy For All Kinds of Maladies. A highland shepherd, one Donald McAlpln, a famous dancer, was re puted to have cured his mistress of1 a mysterious malady by means of danc ing n reel with her, nnd this story be ing nosed abroad gained him the repu tation of being n successful physician. Ills humble cottnge In Slockmulck, overlooking Strathspey, was besieged with crowds of patients who hoped to get rid of their nllmcnts by n dance with Donald. Tho shepherd did not hcsltato to take advantage of this stroke of good luck and soon had' a largo and thriving prnctlce. The treatment ndoptcd wns very sim ple, tho mnln fentures being ns fol lows: In vases of indigestion moderate doses of medlcnted "nqlm" were tnk en, followed by the coum shull, or promenade step. For catarrh Donald prescribed In order to produce perspi ration n large doso of gruel mixed with honey nnd butter, followed by ccinn crnsk, or highland fling. All the different processes terminated in the patient being well wrupped up In warm blankets, and tho doses of medi cine and dnucing were repeated, ac cording to the patient's constitution nnd tho nnturo of his disease.

The dairy farmer who lets the year or even the month pjtss by without at least seeing and examining the 1910 De Laval will be doing himself an injustice. The opportunity of examining and trying a 1910 De Laval right at his own home is open, free of all cost or trouble, to every dairyman who will simply say the word. Next to a De Laval machine is the De Laval cata logue, free for tho asking and containing a separator education in itself. J. W. LeMasters, Agent. 215 EAST FIFTH STREET.
