SONG.
O trust the eyes that wlntheel
And trust the lips that smile 1
And let no doubt within thee
Trouble thy joy the while!
Seize and enjoy the present,
•Tis all the wise can do.
Could it make thine more pleasant
To know thy love were trne?
li she prove true forever.
Can that increase thy bliss
Today? Nay, thou wilt never
Know truer Joy than this.
And if sho turn docelver.
Why should thy strong heart grieve?
Weep only if thou grieve her.
And die ere thou deceive.
—Robert Bridges in New York Sun.
A WHOLE MAN.
A sensitive man has no business on
the desert. He will get prodded every
where. If he take offense at rough ban
ter, Lord help him when he gets into a
raining camp. If he wear his heart
upon his sleeve, let him steer clear of
the Mexican towns and their pretty sen
oritas. If ho would know any peace,
let him keep away from the cattle
range, for the cowboys' jests are as keen
and cutting as the spurs at their heels.
Frank Robbins was beginning to find
out some of these things. But if you
gave him a whole decade ho would not
find them all out.
"What tho boy wants is toughening,"
said Mart Selby.
Mart was big and tough, and he saw
no good reason why anybody but a child
or a woman should be tender.
"He's a young colt that wants a Mex
ican bit shoved into his mouth, and then
to be ridden through the cactus."
At Lucin's ranch the boys joked and
irritated Bobbins, but it did not seem to
toughen him. They cared nothing for
whisky that didu't scratch as it went
down, and when he put water in his
they called him a perfect lady and
laughed loudly.
"Stand their joshing," said Mart to
Bobbins, "and you'll get along hotter.
They'll always make it hot for a man
that don't josh back."
"Oh, I don't mind it," said Bobbins,
badly overdoing his effort to look un
concerned.
It had been the same everywhere he
had been in the west. He was one of
those men who are never anything but
tenderf eet. He simply would not take
men as he found them, though they
were perfectly willing to take him so.
And thG absurd ideas that had lodgment
In his head I Chief among these wero
that he must have a friend—a chum—
who should be a man after his own
heart. He had been looking for such a
man for two years. Ho picked him out
occasionally, but he never found him to
suit. This one was not truthful, that
ono was not temperate and the other
was not nice in his speech. There was
something lacking in each one.
"What I want is a whole man," he
sighed. "I never could tako up with
these half made fellows. But it is not
so easy. Even when I find a man that
is temperate and intellectual he turns
out to be selfish. What would I not
give for a whole man for a friend and
companion—a whole man!"
He would not take up with Mart Sel
by, though Mart saw "the young fel
low" sorely needed a friend and helper,
particularly one who would toughen
him. He kept on looking for his niade
to-order man, but he never seemed to
hit upon him. Pew such men as he was
looking for are to be found within a
thousand miles of Lucin's. In fact, at
Lucin's yon would bo at a loss to dis
cover a single man who did not like to
tako observations at Old Ashby's cloth
and paper ceiling through the bottom of
a whisky glass, and if yon heard a voice
I will give you my word of honor it was
no cherub's.
One day tho hoys outdid all their
little meannesses to Robbins by getting
him hopelessly drunk. Of course it
was no killing matter, but he had never
been drunk before, and he took it very
seriously and resolved to leave camp
next day.
Mart did not lilco this. His heart had
warmed toward "tho young fellow,"
and he hated to see him leave the place.
Finally he resolved to go with him.
They agreed between them that they
would not go on the range again. They
would go prospecting for gold.
And thus it was that they came to
make the journey over the desert to
ward Dead Horse gulch. Now, as every
body in that country knows, the wealth
of Dead Horse gulch is great, but it is
Very hard to reach. Miners, who have
lived out the awful heat of tho alkali
plain that lies all around the buttes
wherein the gulch makes its gash, have
come back with full belts, but none'of
them has ever gone a second time.
In suggesting this journey Mart Selby
had a double object. First, he wanted
to toughen "the young fellow," and
next, he wanted to enrich them both.
Mart knew that Bobbins had come out
west to make enough money to many a
pice girl who lived in Delaware, and he
Knew, too, that "the young fellow" had
found money making very slow work.
From Lucin's to the great alkali plain
that lay before tho buttes in which tho
gold was hidden was a long and toil
some journey. But the real work only
began with the crossing of the alkali
desert.
White and naked lay the dead land
before their aching eyes. The eye of
heaven shone down with most unrelent
ing fierceness. No breath of air was
Stirring, and the whole world was to
them as dumb as death.
Mart had counted on the journey be
ing a hard one, but not so hard as this.
He had not dreamed that tho water
would give out so soon, nor that the
horses would sink down and die as they
did.
Still they staggared on, their forms,
bent under their keavy burdens, stand
ing out sharp and raw above tbe white
earth, on which their clearly defined
shadows fell with inky black iess.
In that cloudless, mistless air, distance
seemed set at naught, for they traveled
on and on toward the buttes, aud yet
they seemed to grow no nearer.
It was, >oward evening that they
reache>>y Tocky islet in the sea of alkali,
j/o, after a very bad meal of hard
t' ,Aey fell asleep, Robbins iircunnej
clear, cold water, drawn from mavblo
4—Wkvint ''. ' v' vt ' ilgoblets. Tho young
many.i iuu t to awake. Tiiosuu
was bt,. inn • g hoot his fiery needle*
over tho . Robbins lifted hia
band fc . s.
"R-r-z-z-z!"
Then a tongue of flame darted toward
him aud struck him on the palm of the
hand.
"My God," he groaned, "it's a rattle
snake, and he's bitten me!"
His voice seemed to awaken a hundred
echoes, and to these responded a hun
dred rattles/
Selby sat up in his blanket and stared
at him stupidly. As he made the move
ment a rattlesnake struck him in the
face, and another at his side would have
done the same had he not thrown him
self out of reach of his deadly fangs.
The rattles resounded on every side.
The two men ran back to a stretch of
sand beyond the rocks and gazed at each
other wildly.
"Hold still," demanded Mart. "Let me
look at your bite."
He grasped the boy's hand.
"Thank God, it's not in the vein!"
He seized his knife and quickly hol
lowed out a piece of the flesh.
"There, hold your hand down and let
the blood run free, while I tie this cord
around your arm."
Hp twisted the stout cord until it cut
into the arm.
"Now, the whisky," he gasped.
"No," said Robbins, "let me cut tho
poison out of your wound."
Mart held still a moment while this
was done.
"Now, the whisky—quick!" cried Rob
bins.
But Selby did not look for the bringing
forth of the flask with any light of hope
in his eyes.
"It is yours," he said quietly. "There
is only enough for one, and barely that."
"Then it is yours, Mart."
"No—yours."
"But you are the worse bitten. Your'
face is already beginning to swell.
Drink it."
There was anguish in the tone, as there
was heroism in the words; but it was
heroism of the weakly sort. He held out
the bottle at arm's length, while he
turned his face away.'
"No, by God! It's yours, boy!" came
in firmer and more commanding tone
from Mart Selby. "You have a mother
and a sweetheart back in the states.
And I—l have nobody. Thero was some
one once, but there ain't nobody now—
nobody at all."
In the face of this fearful temptation
Bobbins felt himself weakening. He
grew less strong of resolution with each
tick of tho watch in his pocket, heard
so plainly in the desert stillness. What
a coward he felt himself; bu^ —how
sweet was life!
Was there not help to be had from
some other source? He could not take
this. The drinking of that liquid was
tho drinking of Selby's life, and that life
meant much to him now. Here was the
whole man!
His eye swept the hopeless plain. He
looked for the "dust" of a traveler, but
he saw none. The heat of the day was
growing. He tb'— -' the felt the poison
pulsing through his veins.
"No—no," he said, sinking down upon
the sand. And there was a pitiable
weakness in his tone.
Selby took the bottle from his hand.
As he did so a shade of fear aroso to
Bobbins' face. Selby saw it and smiled.
The swollen face made the smile gro
tesque; but none the less it was the smile
of a god. He came forward and knelt
beside the crouching form of Bobbins,
who, lying on his face, with his eyes
shut, begged him not to think of him,
but of himself. But the tone was grow
ing weaker.
The other said no word, bnt lifting his
friend's head he uncorked the bottle and
held it to his lips. A look of remon
strance came to Bobbins' face, and he
raised his hand to push away the bottle
Just then he glanced upward. A buz
zard was circling about in the clear,
blue air. He shivered, and as the neck
of tho bottle was forced between his
teeth and Selby was holding back his
head, how could he help swallowing?
Tho look of remonstrance faded slowly
away as the liquor gurgled from tho
bottle. Soon it was all drained. The
boy's head sank to the ground and a
heavy sleep laid hold upon him.
When he awoke there lay by his side
the body of a man with a pistol bullet
in his head.—Frank. B. Millard in Argo
naut.

Mrs. Jinks—What do you think? A
thief shot at Mrs. Bingle while she was
sitting in her room, and tho bullet
lodged in a- ball of yarn which sho was

lucky fellow, isn't he?
Mrs. Jinks —I should say ho was.
Mr. Jinks—Yes, indeed. Ho has a
wife who darns stockings.—New York

In Fire Minutes.
Ted had a knife that his papa had
given him. With a knowing look
grandma said, "It is only a matter of
time for him to cut himself." In just
five minutes Ted came in holding his
hands behind him, and said, "Grandma,
it is not a very bad cut."—Babyhood.
A Neat Way of Rebuking.
A lady stood hanging on the strap of
a street car, when a workman in tho far
corner arose and politely offered her a
seat. "I thank you," she said in a very
sweet tone, "but I dislike to deprive tho
only gentleman in tho car of a seat."—

LOS ANGELES HERALD: SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 17, 1892.
"There's something behind it. n
That's what you think, perhaps,
when you read that tho proprietors
of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy offer
$500 reward for an incurable case
of Catarrh. Rather unusual, you
think, to find the makers of a medi
cine trying to prove that they be
lieve in it. "There must be some
thing back of it!"
But it's a plain, square offer, made
in good faith. The only thing that's
back of it is the Remedy. It cures
Catarrh in the Head. To its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing
properties, the worst cases yield,
no matter how bad or of how long
standing. It has a record that
goes back for 25 years. It doesn't
simply relieve —it perfectly and
permanently cures. With a Rem
edy like this, the proprietors can
make such an offer and mean it.
To be sure there's risk in it, but
it's so very small that they are
willing to take it.
You've " never heard of anything
like this offer?" True enough.
But then you've never heard of
anything like Dr. Sago's. Remedy.
