In the dl ays of the "wild ant jyooHy "Wef." plainsmen and traveler! by overlanR wngons held to the beliel that a Ion? Jjurney could be made more speedily by man afoot than on horseback. In the army the Impres sion generally in accepted that Infan try can ou '.travel cavalry on long, marches. B'it t the Santo Domingo Indians of N'-'-v Mexico belongs the credit of chasing wild horses ever the ranges of tie bliis until the animals are exhausted and submit to capture. No ir.arathou runners have ever been recruited from this tribe of Pueblo Indians, for the wonderful powers of endurance of the runners of the tribe are little known outside the district Immediately surrounding their village. These runners of the Santo Domln gos come from a race of fleet-footed ancestors. Like all tribes of American Indians, they have accepted the means of traveling best suited to the country where they live. The Sioux of the Da kotas are horsemen. The Santo Do mingos have been walkers and run ners always. Their physiques show the results of generations of footmen. Great chests, almost abnormal in de velopment, wedge upward from slen der waists, while sinewy calves pro claim the strength to hold to a hard trail. Usually their chases of the bands of wild horses owned by the tribe are matters of necessity. The enormous stretches of broken country where the horses graze, and the untamed spirits of animals that may not have been touched by man in their several years of existence In the hills, make It necessary to wear the creatures out and run them down. None but a Santo Domingo Indian probably is able to do It. A courier of the Santo Domingo tribe rode 30 miles at furious speed to the pueblo of a neighboring band, bearing a message. His horse was staggering w hen the town w as reached. A hasty consultation was called. The answer was banded to the Santo Do mingo youth. Nodding, he turnea toward home. "Ho! Your horse?" a headman sailed. The courier said: "I leave him. I must go fast The race would kill my horse." In the Face of Worries. Here is a special reason for seeking society or the theater: Other people. in real life or on the stage (better in real life, of course, because there one has to talk back), can best pull one out of oneself when one's own powers are utterly inadequate. - When actual causes of anxiety seem overwhelming, if one can be made to forget them for a time, hope comes into the ascen dant. The best of all remedies is perhaps the most difficult, though not impossible. It is to "rise superior" to your troubles to convince yourself, i lift yourself, force yourself into the feeling of directorship of competent and confident directorship of all your affairs. ' Add "with God's help" If you want to, for that may back up our worthy intentions more even than our ancestors began to realize whatever they professed to believe. This feel ing of calm adequacy does much to se cure adequacy, and w hat is of perhaps more importance, compels peace. Un popular Review. Wiping Out Beasts of Prey. A mountain lion recently killed in the Grand Canyon game preserve, which adjoins tbe Tusayan national forest measured ten feet from nose to tall. MountaJu lions and other beasts of prey such as wolves, coy otes and wildcats, are killed by forest officers and gan wardens because they are a menace to stock and to game animals.

DAI LY NEBRASKA N THEIR GROCERY BILL' OF COURSE MA WAS MOST ECO NOMICAL, CUT The Family Had to Hive Butter and Anything But the Best, and Lota of It Was Out of the Question. "Our grocery bill is larger again this month," said pa. glumly, accord ing to the Boston Globe. "We have got to cut down expenses." "I'm sure I try," replied ma, in an Injured tone. "I try to get along as economically as possible, but we must eat and everything Is 'out of 6lght.' Perhaps you can suggest where we can cut down." "Well. I don't know Just where. The children micht et along without but ter on their bread when they pile on Jelly the way they do. nutter is a big item." "Oh. na that would be terrible." cried Mary. "I guess you never tried just eating bread and jelly." "Indeed. I Save, and thought It was mighty good, too. Why, when I was a boy we made a whole meal off a cou ple of thick slices of bread spread with molasses, and no butter, either 1 could eat a piece now If 1 had It" "If you would buy things in the city and bring them home you could prob ably save money," suggested ma "Perhaps I could. but, unfortunate ly, my time is pretty well taken up earning what is respectfully called a salary. The best thing we car. do is to move out where we can raise hens and vegetables. We can't keep on living here if prices keep going up." "Why don't you ask for a raise?" suggested ma. hopefully. "Lots of good It w ould do. Just now the company is retrenching and is more likely to cut salaries than to in crease them." "The Idea." said ma. Indignantly. "The trouble with you is you're afraid to ask. I bet I'd talk up to them. I'd Just tell them I couldn't keep a family of 6lx on such a small salary, and that I had to have more money." ; "They should worry." replied pa. grimly. "I don't know where they are responsible for my having a wife and four children. Of course, if I don't want to stay, 1 can quit." "They would never let you ' quit They couldn't get along without you. Don't you do all the work, while Mr. Smith draws the big salary? He has a motor car and they go everywhere." said ma, waxing Indignant "You compliment me, I'm sure," re plied pa, "but you're not Just wise to the situation. It would be very grati fying to think that I was so important, but unfortunately I am very well aware that there are several men per fectly willing to step in if I step out No man is so important that the world couldn't get along without blm. If I should quit it would cause some temporary inconvenience, but the sun, moon and stars would continue their daily routine, and the company would still do business at the old stand." "I think they're Just horrid, any way, and I'd like to tell them so." "Please don't. It 'might cause the whole board of directors to lose sleep and they are strongly averse to los ing anything." "There's the order man," said ma. -Maggie., don't forget to order five pounds of the best butter." How to Ted if It Is Silver.
