Everybody Hal Fun Singing Cowboy Songs

LAR-l-AT BILL

Old Favorites Mlle Hit

Good old Lariat Bill-n rootin‘ tootin’ cowboy if there ever was one! And what a song his exploits make for autumn gatherings of your crowd:

"He'd stand on his head in his own saddle seat,

And rope ‘em u good u he did on his feet,

He'd lasso your ear, with the bat of an eye,

Thcn turn ‘round and lasso a pesky horse fly."

With a songbook of your own you quickly catch on to words and tunes of such cowboy ditties as "Going Down to Santa Fe Town." which begins:

“Oh, we saddle old Paint and away

“E go, We're goin’ down to the rodeo—" Or “The Texas Song," lament of the cowboy: "l'm going to leave old Texas I10“! For they've no use for the 1ong~ horn cow—"

Such jolly times you can have

chit with the finger-print people this morning. There mould be a ‘phone message very soon."

" e’s a knave," I)0Lilm0l'¢ resum- ed. 'He and the gang have got hold of that son in Pans-a waster. Mrs. liewm dles—ostcnsiloly murdered for the sake of her Jewellery. Her mon- ey goes to the son~that is to the gang who probably have him in their power. The son authorizes Rol- llter to go ahead with the adminis- tration of the estate. We've got to set hold of that son; as 1 see lt, the whole case pivots on nim."

"He's on hi; way here."

"1 wonder."

"You heard what Rolliter said."

Dolllmore nodded: “Still, I shall be surprised if he turns up-or, rather, lf we're allowed to see him. He's got a water-tight alibi unless we can upset lt. Alter all. neither Fernandez nor the sClllcllOl‘ stand to gainby her death-apart from the son. By the way, the nephew, Par- minter. is on the 'phone. Shall 1 at him to conic here?"

“I suppose so. Frankly, I'm ln the dark. I aunt know what else to 5H8- gest. As far as clues go there aren't any. Not what you might call clues."

“Of course there aren't. The Job was done by pCCpiB who don't leave clues all over lhe place—unless they're designed to lcad us up the garden." - »

"That little girl isn't down yet, apparently.

"No. 1 was wondering about her. I ho e she’..- all right. I'll ‘phone Parm nter lhen-"

"You've finished your breakfast?" Ducros asked, helping himself to another slice of toast.

"Yes. And it would be better for your figure if you had as well," Dolllmore said with o. smile.

Parminter was unaware of what had happened, but apparently took the news very calmly: “I'll come at once. I shall be over withln half an hour."

"Thank you.”

Dollimore turned from the ‘phone he saw Mary Stenning com-

down the stairs. She was pale. appeared to be quite composed.

"I WAS AWAKE ALL NIGHT“

At the sight of Mary Stennllng descending the stairs, Dollimore paused and greeted her.

"I was JUSL going out for a breath of air, she said, a little formally, as though obliged to cxplaln her movements.

“You've had breakfast?" Dolli- more inquired.

“A cup of tea-all I want."

"May I come with you?"

"Please do. 1 wanted talk to you. Mr. Ducros seems 5o suspicious, somehow."

"No — no!” smiled Dollimore. “That's just his manner. Isn't it a lovel morning," he said as they stoo at the top of the steps over- lookirlg the park.

The policeman on duty there struck the one inharmonious note. He saluted Inspector Dollimore as they went down the steps.

"1 had n0 idea last night that you were a detective," she said. "I'm beginning w wonder if I am," he said. far. we haven't detected very much in this case." "I was awake all night." she said,

“thinking. “I'm sorry. But I suppose lt was to be expected."

There were shadows beneath her eyes, but to Dallimore she was even lovelier than she had been the previous evening.

"I had hoped for a round of golf this morning," he said.

"And I should have taken Mrs. Lewln for a hun in the can It's wicked. Mr. lDolllmore." she bur’ out. "She was the nicest woman I have ever known. one wad lllsle like a mother to me."

He nodded: ‘A; a mother, she had not been particularly lucky."

“No. The son was-he'd almost killed her affection for him. He was really hopeless. Drink, drink. drink. The only time I sow him he was drunk. He'd been in prison at least twice. He nearly broke her heart. He was sent clown from Oxford-among other tillngs."

"I suppose you will have to [flake new plans now?" he asked after a

silence. “Ya. Somethln will turn up." "I hone we sh l keep in touch

with each other."

THE COST 0F THINKING.

Husbands and Wives Will Get Far More Joy Out of Life if They Continue Their Love- making Just as Arduously as They Did During Courtship Days

Tlley know that a cra for tenderness and love snows in- cessantly at their Vitals and that the sufferings are not Nlleved by the! factual knowledge that their husband; must once have preferred them to other women or else they would not have married them and that they Sllll haven't divorced them.

It isn't enough for a wife for her husband merely to do his duty by her in the way of bel . faithful and a. good provider and kind. She can stay her soul on such husks of affection as tllflii- She wants the strong meat and wine of a. love that expresses itself in caresses, in kisses that are not as cold and flabby as yesterday's pancakes. And. above all, she wants words. she wants to be told every day of her llfe in burning. sizzling words 110W he: husband adores her and that to him she is the most beautiful and wonderful woman ln the world.

Every woman knows that to a wife the success of a marriage depends not upon what her husband is, nor what he gives her, but upon the kind of a lovemaker he is. Every woman knows that a man may be a Dill" of the church and a model in the community, and that he may lavlsll fine houses and cars and jewels upon his wife, yet if he never pays her a, com- pllment, or shows her how dear she is to him. or makes her know how necessary she is to nim. her marriage is cinders. ashes and dust. And every woman knows that she will gladly work her hands to the bones for him so long as her husband takes anv interest in holding them.

their sex.

And yet, knowing all of these things. it is strange how few Women ever realize that men's hearts are formed lust of the same material and function just as theirs do. and that thelr husbands are starving fol love Just as much as they are. They, no more than women, are satisfied to lake their mates’ love for granted and to have their wives sav lt will! apple pies instead of expressions of tenderness.

They want to know that to their wives they are still young Romeos. no matter how bald and paunchy they may have gotten. _'I‘hev Want llll-Bll’ wives’ eyes to brighten at their coming home of an evenlng. They want their wives to give them their lips instead of the back of their hair cr the rims of their ears for their kisses. They want their wives to ad- lnirc them, to balby them, to flatter them, to make them feel that they are the center of the universe to them.

And as long as a wife is a. good lover and feeds her husband's heart on angel's food he will stand a lot of bad houssekeeping and wastefulness and extravagance. And the siren had just as well pack her bag of tricks land move on w some other house‘ where the wife feeds her husband's

body on filer. mignon. but starves his soul for affBfil-lon.

If the husbands and wives who have ceased to love each other treated each other with coldness and neglect it would be understandable. but the thing that we cannot understand and that makes the tragedy of the thing is that husbands and wives who still love each other let their mates starve for the appreciation and affection that they are too lazy and too dumb to give them.

A doctor once told me that the most harrowing deathbed scene he ever witnessed was when one of these cold. silent husbands ClflSped his dying wife to his bosom and ured out on her dulllng ears a. passionate torrent of the love he had ways felt for her but never expressed. And the woman whispered with almost her last breath: "That would "have made me so happy. but it is too late now." Don't let that be your case. Speak up now.
