Kahhits sire particularly destruc tive In sheep-grazing sections, us they destroy not only grass, but shrubbery as well. Seven rabbits are said to cat as much grass as one ! sheep. The destructlveness is off set somewhat, however, by their commercial value in fur and food. Exports of rabbit products, chiefly skins, averaged $15,000,000 per year during the years Immediately pre ceding 1020, but since that time huve declined.

She became so emaclnted that she was very pathetic looking. "Aftar three months' suffering I recalled the Cuticura treatment used j by my mother.

W'.m; jjervic# [ FT WAS tu|>(>er time at the Allen ' * ranch in Wyoming. The ranch foreman usually guided ! with the family, and he entered the j room through one door Just as Mrs. Allen and her daughter. Judith, sat rjown at lah!e. "My hushand has had a telephone message from lied Spider," said Mrs. Allen to the foreman. Ilex Thomas, "and so 1^ had an early supper and started off?perhaps you saw him?** "I did see him riding out of the gate." admitted Thomas. "Just as I mine in from the upper pasture.** He waved his hand. "Has something come up at Ited Spider?" "Something to do with business? that Is the worst of being a sheriff? sometimes I wish Jim would give up his appointment." "I saw Hob Rlake, Miss Judith." said Thomas with a humorous twinkle in his eye. Judith flushed, and a warm look came Into her lovely brown eyes. *'I suppose he was riding Schuyler's herd." she said with assumed Indif ference. "Hiding something?I'll be hanged If : 1 entirely understood the situation? he was going like lightning along the old Patch trail, but I was In a hurry and he didn't seem to see me, so I didn't hall him. Looked as though he was trying to get somewhere In a big hurry." Judith said nothing, but she looked rather worried, and Mrs. Allen carried on a desultory conversation until the meal ended. Then, while Mrs. Allen washed her silver and fine china, Chang, the Chinese cook, cleared off the table and Judith went out to the broad veranda and sat down with a book. But the girl's eyes were not on the printed page?they scanned the distant trail over which a racy black horse might come skimming?t5ob Blake always came that way! To Judith Allen, Just at this time, most of the world consisted of Bob Blake's tall, active figure. Though they were not engaged, Judith's parents rather expected the tall cowpuncher to ask the fatal question any day, and Sheriff Allen had his answer all ready. "I like you. Bob?there isn't another r boy J would rather give my girl to! But you're nothing except a line rider for Old Man Schuvier?and you've got to be more than that If you want our Judith!" That Is what Sheriff Allen had planned to say when Bob Blake came to see him about Judith, but he had never told anybody excepting his wife, and she, well-meaning soul If there ever was one, had confided in Judith. So Judith Allen knew that much, anyway, und perhaps she was think ing that her father might have met Bob, and they had talked It out, as men are apt to do. She had not seen Boh for a week, but she had not mentioned It to the family. The casual remark of the foreman, Thomas, had roused her thoughts and made her uneasy. Later that evening Sheriff Allen came home, and with him came Bob Blake, of all people. "I arrested this fellow," grinned the sheriff, "for loitering on the trail com ing to the Blue Bottle!" Bob grinned sheepishly, and openly winicea oi juuun. "He told me." said Bob. "that I was breaking the traffic laws by speeding!" "Bob's made a voyage of discovery during the past week." said the sher iff, "and he is inviting the family (you, too, mother?I'll drive you In the buck board) to start with him at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. I guess we'll be back in time for supper!" Bob Blake remained that night at the Blue Bottle ranch and the next morning they started forth?Bob and Judith riding their horses, and the sheriff driving two rangy colts In the shafts of the buckboard In which his wife was snugly placed. The rode for many miles across the prairie, then up into the broken hills where they never met a soul, and then at last they rounded a Wooded hillock, crossed a brawling stream, and Bob told them to stop. It was noon and the sun shone down through one broken space In the thick i tree tops, and fell Into the bed of the j stream where It was overhung by thick j mosses and long, tangled roots. < "Please come here a moment, all of you," said Bob rather gravely. They stood and watched him ex- 1 pectantly. "Mr. and Mrs. Allen, of course you know that I love Judith." he said (lushing beneath his bronze, "and now I am going to ask you for your daughter. Of course. I am Just j hoping that Judith likes me well ' enough to?" he paused and stared rapturously at the girl who had stepped forward and slipped her slim hand In his large brown one, clinging to It firmly, "there. I guess that that proves she does like me a whole lot," he went on choking a Uttle. "and though you folks all think I am Just s line rider. 1 am telling you I am a whole lot more than that! I am am- 1 bltious myself, and so. If you'll Just glance down there where the sun Ij shining right through the water onto the prettiest hit of gold deposit?well.

I want to kiss Judith here?and j then, we'll have some lunch P* Beauty Secret in I, Carriage of Head \ I' Woman Who "Slouches" Can Never Really Look Her Best. With the attention that Is -being , paid to beauty treatment* so that a ; woman may be good to look at, one j essential Is seldom heeded. That Is | the proper way to hold the head. So , long as it does not set well on the . neck and shoulders, there is some- , thing notably wrong with the pic ture, and no amount of powder on | the cheeks and rouge on the lips? | and cheeks, too?can make the wom an handsome. It Is useless to say that . nature formed -us as we are, and we are not responsible for the carriage of , the head, while all the time we are using cosmetics and lotions to change the appearance of the faces nature gave us. So, mothers, see that your ] daughters learn to hold their heads well up, and gracefully, too. It Is not tradition alone which Is responsible for the Idea that the ? way the head was held denoted whether one was a ptebian or patri- 1 clan. It is a fact. Women of high ' rank were not permitted to slouch. It was part of their upbringing and i education to hold their heads high. They must express In their carriage that they held themselves above mean and degrading acts. They must represent a fineness and nobil ity of birth and character by the posture of their heads. Those of lower rank might slouch, and unfor tunately they did, for they were not ; trained to hold their heads high. There was one race of people who ^as an entire group considered them selves worthy, the Romans. Just to be a Itoman meant superiority. Even to this very day the Romans hold their heads high. They have a cer tain majesty of appearance. One in stinctively recognized them as noble. Today to be said to carry oneself like a Roman is expressive of praise, and a not unworthy pride. To raise the chin alone Is not suf Iclent. and It may be awkward if it s protruded. A good way to get the right poise of the head is to lift the crown up. This naturally *truightens the neck, and the chin, while raised, will not be thrust for ward. As a woman grows older there is a tendency to let the head and neck settle down. It is difliculty to ap pear young when the head has this attitude. So mothers, while remind ing their children to hold their heads high, should follow their own good advice. This is a beauty treatment which costs nothing In dollars and cents, ? and is invaluable. Moreover there is a subtle connec tion between attitudes of mind and body. With the head held high, the thoughts have the tendency to be above littleness. Both the eyes of the head and of the mind look down on the mean things of life, and true beauty results. <?.
