spvprnl yearn Be has devoted n gootl deal or
thought to obtulu more heat from an ordi
nary heating utove uud at the name time ef
fect a aavlng lu coal. Ah a result of hla
cogitations he had holen drilled In tbe top
and bottom of a aoft coal burner of sufficient
size to admit of liiMcrtlng a three-inch tube,
taking out one part of the grate to admit It.
He then put In an ordlnury supply of coal
and started the Are. His expectations were
more than realized, the stove having three
times the heating capacity It did before,
with less than one-third the ainouut of fuel.
The secret of more heat aud less fuel Is lust
this: The tube referred to Is open at the bot
tom, affording a cold air draught, which not
only forces the heat tip through the tube
from the center of the tire, but also serves
tbe purpose of a hot air blast used lit con
nection with the furnaces, which causes the
coal to burn slowly and at the same time
utilize every partlele of heat. If It Is de
sired to heat more than one room, all that
Is necessary Is to nttiieh one piece of pipe to
the top of 1 he tube that passes through the
stove. Mr. Smith says that last winter he
warmed three rooms In this way. and that In
doing so lie did not use over two-thirds the
amount of coal he had previously used for
wnruling one room by the same stove. The
Invention Is iiiii|iiestloiiahly a good thing,

OLD BUCK ROGERS.
By Thomas P. Montfort.
HERE was a time
f when the cowboys
pretty nearly car
ried things their
own way on the
prairies of western
Kansas. That was
a long while ago,
before the hardy
settlers came to
seek claims and
build homes in that
country, and while
the cattlemen grazed their great herds
on the millions of acres of public lands
and amassed quick fortunes from the
free government pasturage.
In those dayß the cowboys rode tho
plains free aud unrestrained, disregard
ing all law, aud governed in their con
duct by nothing except their desires.
They were wild. Impulsive creatures,
overflowing with the spirit of liberty
which they caught from the boundless
prairie and breathed in with the pure,
exhilarating air that intoxicated the
blood with life, vigor and strength.
Of all the cowboys on the plains of
Kansas at that time, old Buck Rogers
was, perhaps, the most impulsive and
reckleas. He had for years lived a
ranch life, and had "chased steers" in
every part of the cattle range from the
river Rio Grande to the Platte. Be
sides, he hac fought Indians and Mexi
can greasers, and had helped Buffalo
Bill round up the meat which he was
supplying, under contract, to the men
who were constructing the Kansas Pa
•lflc railroad.
At that time Dodge City was pre-emi
nently a cowboy town. They used to
‘round up” there after pay-day, "blow"
their money into every folly they saw,
get uproariously drunk, and proceed to
paint things ultra red. It was nothing
unusual for a gang of men to race up
and down the streets, yelling like Co
manche Indians and shooting at the
signs and terrifying women and chil
dren and the pale tenderfoot almost out
Df life. They had full possession of the
town, and they ran It to their own lik
ing.
If old Buck Rogers happened to be
present he was sure to lead in all this
deviltry. It was a saying that went
undisputed that he "could drink more
whisky, yell louder and shoot straight
er than any other man on the range."
And he certainly did everything that
lay In his power to Justify this state
ment.
Often and often as he stood at the
bar of the saloon and In rapid succes
sion tossed glass after glass of whisky
down his throat until the hardest
drinkers In town looked on In fear and
amazement. Then he would go out and
mount his broncho and. throwing his
hat to the wind, would charge up and
down the street at a mad gallop, his
long hair flying out behind, each of his
hands working a pistol with astonish
ing deftness, while from his throat
there came a series of the most terrific
and unearthly yells that ever emanated
from a human being.
And fight! There was nothing that
old Buck wouldn’t stand up before; and
It was his boost that he had never met
anything, either man or beast, that he
had not been able to lay on it* back.
SWUNG THE GAMBLER OVER HIS
HEAD.
The boldest and most daring cowboys,
even those who possessed an enviable
reputation as fighters, sang very low
of their prowess when Buck Rogers was
around. He was not only brave and
reckless, but he was as strong as an
ox, and a blow of his naked fist, fair
ly planted, was enough to settle a man
for all time to come.
One day down at Dodge City a lot of
cowboys were talking about old Buck’s
remarkable strength, and recounting
some of the feats he had performed,
when one of their number, a man who
had recently come up from the south,
said:
‘‘Never heard about the trick old
Buck played on a chap down in Texas
one time, I reckon?"
“Guess not,” somebody replied.
"Then I'll tell you about It. It was
one night. Just after pay day at the XL
ranch, and the boys were all down at
town blowing in their money. Theie
was just one saloon In the place, and.
of course, that was where the crowd
rounded up.
"Well, when the boys had got pretty
well loaded with liquor a slick stranger
mnde his appearance at the saloon and
opened up with some kind of a flim
flam game. The game was a clean
steal from first to last, but the boys
‘bucked’ it, and were, one after an
other, cleaned out so quick that it al
most made their heads swim. The
losers didn’t feel a bit good over being
worked that way, and there was a good
deal of muttering and cursing, to say
nothing of menacing scowls and ner
vous fingering of pistols. But the
gambler, a thin, wiry little cuss, had
his nerve with him. and he proceeded
with his game as coolly as though he
had been surrounded by friends.
"At last old Buck went over to the
table and put up a twenty dollar gold
piece against t* " game.
" ‘Do I stan-i any show to win In
this business?’ he asked.
“ ‘Oh, yes,’ the gambler answered.
'You stand an equal chance to win or
lose.’
“ ‘Then I am either going to win on
this Investment.’ old Buck said, ‘or I
am going to smash the game.’
“Well, the play was made and In lit
tle more than a second Buck’s money
went Into the gambler’s pocket. Buck
waited a moment, then he said slowly:
"‘I remarked thnt I was going to
win or else smash the game. Well, I
didn’t win. so I’ll just
"And before anybody knew what he
Intended to do h»* had reached over,
caught the gambler by the arms, swung
him over his head and brought him
down broadside across the table with
all the strength he possessed. Tho
game was smashed, 1 the boards in th«
table were splintered, and the gam
bler lay on the floor os limp as a rag.
"Everybody thought at first that
Buck had killed the fellow, but they
were mistaken. The chap lived, but It
was a long time before he was able to
walk a step, or even to stand on his
feet, 'it is safe to bet, though, that he
never tried any more skin games on
cowboys.”
The old saying that "sooner or later
every man will meet his match” proved
true in Buck Roger’s case. For years
he rode the range, unconquered and
invincible and victor in every con
test with man or beast. But he at last
met his match. He "went up against”
a thing In comparison to which lie was
a mere feather. In plain words, he
“bucked a cyclone.
One Saturday nfternoon In July Buck
was down at Dodge City. The town
was full of cowboys, but they were not
very lively. The day was Intensely hot
and sultry, and even a cowboy did not
feel Inclined to exert himself unneces
sarily. The usual amount of liquor
was disposed of, however, and old Buck
managed to take care of his portion.
Along about the middle of the after
noon a black cloud came up from the
east and another from the west. These
clouds advanced and met overhead, and
then began to conduct themselves in a
most peculiar manner. They rolled
and tumbled nnd pitched and churned,
and twisted In and out among them
selves.
The street was lined with people who
watched these clouds anxiously, for
every one felt assured that a cyclone
was brewing. People had left their
homes and the stores and shops, and
the cowboys had left the saloons —at
least, those of them who were not
too drunk. Old Buck had mounted his
broncho and was standing In the road
In front of the postofllce.
Pretty soon there came sweeping
across the prairie from the west a mass
of black cloud, funnel-shaped and
bristling with electricity. Every one
knew lu an Instant what thnt meant
The dreaded cyclone had appeared.
Some of the people lied in search o.
places of safety, some dropped down
right where they stood and began to
wail and pray, while others stood, open
mouth and dumb, staring stupidly a.
the terrible engine of destruction. Bir
old Buck Rogers did none of these
things.
At the first cry that a cyclone wtu
coming he tore off his hat and threw h
down in the road, gave one long, un
earthly yell of defiance, and dashed
down the stre.et right toward the cy
clone’s track. As he went he cried:
"I’ve never seen the thing yet tha
was able to do old Buck Rogers up, ant
I’ve fought white men, Indians and
bears. I’m not the man to be scared of
a little wad of wind and cloud. Who
o-o-p-e-e-e!"
The people watched him as he racet
out across the prairie, his long hail
flying and his face set squarely to th«
front. They saw him as he bore dowr
toward the cyclone, and above the roai
of the wind they heard the shout of
defiance which he gave out. The nex»
moment they saw the mighty moving
monster and the man meet. They saw
the latter swallowed up in that black
cloud. That was all.
In a minute the cyclone had passed
It had missed the town, and the people
breathed easy once more.
Immediately a party went out lu
search of old Buck, and after a long
hunt somebody found him. He wav
hanging in the forks of a cottonwood
tree, about twenty feet from tht
ground, and jammed down so tight be
tween the limbs that he could no.
move. His broncho lay ten yardt
away, stone dead. Buck was rescuec
and carried back to town, more dead
than alive. The doctor examined hla
and found that while his injuries would
not prove fatal he would be a cripple
for life. When he heard the announce
ment old Buck groaned. He looked at
the cowboys who collected about him
and said:
“Boys, I’m done. I went up against
a critter at lost that was too much for
me. I was licked fair; and from now
on I’m gentle as a lamb. When a little
wad of wind and cloud can pick a man
up and toss him into the fork of a
tree like that done me, it’s time for
that man to pull In his horns and shut
up shop ns a fighter. I’ve got no more
to say, and after this, if a 10-year-old
boy wants to lick me he can do it.”
In the course of time old Buck was
able to get about, but he was never the
same man. His spirit was completely
broken. He had lost all zest for fight
ing, nnd instead of being the rashest
and most obstreperous character in
the section, he had become the quietest
and most demure. He lived a good
many years, but as it was necessary
for him to use a crutch he never re
turned to ranch life.

She takes me on a tandem '

Of different makes of hikes.
And she can mend a punctured tire,

With holes as big as half a crown.
Which she cannot locate.
Nothing she knows of making cakes.
And home-made Jam she’d spoil.
But she can tell you the beat makes
Of lubricating oil.
She'll pedal miles on hottest days
Along the worst known road,
But she won't do a single turn
Within her own abode.
She won’t cut wood, nor hoe. nor dig.

A Correct Answer.
"Now, my little man," said the school
Inspector, endeavoring to Instil confi
dence Into the boys by smiling benign
ly on them. “I want to see If you un
derstand something about grammar. 1
want you to describe me, using a noun
and an adjective. Now, what am I?"
The boys made short work of that
question.
"A big man.” was the reply of two or
three at once, and the whole class
looked first at each other, and then—
with some appearance of contempt—at
the Inspector, as If to say that It would
take a lot of that sort of thing to floor
them.
“Very good," said the inspector,
pleased at the ready answer. "But
what else? There is something more.
Another adjective."
This was a poser, but after thinking
a very small boy jumped up In red-hot
haste In order to be first with the cor
rect reply.
