The Caliente Trail * * * In their weary journey across the barren mesa the travelers had sudden ly come to a halt. What they had dreaded from the time they had lefi the stage road station and set out on the trail had come to pass, and they were sore distressed. Bad water and the Insufferable heat of the desert had stretched Big Bunster out on his blan kets, and lie was talking about Ills mother and asking the others to break the news to her gently. Bunster had not felt well when they left Flagstaff; but. like the well mean ing young idiot that he was, he persist ed In facing the dangers of the trail with the others. So, as he grew less steadj’ on his burro and the fever took a tinner hold upon his big, lazy body, his head drooped lower over the pom mel, and Jim Yost, the guide and the only man of the whole six of them who really knew what danger the big fellow was in, determined to call a halt. “ I don't want to see him die In his saddle,\ Jim said in a whisper to Zacli Rawlins, “and unless we kin git him inter more comfortable shape he'll croak afore sundown.\ So they paused in the shade of a mass of rocks piled up in tbe fashion the Titans had of doing things in the days when the Grand Canyon of the Colorado was young.

And then Zach, who was the best and truest friend Big Bunster had ever had, stuck his heels in the sand and said It was a beastly shame that such a good fellow should come to such an end. He wanted to know why their miserable guide had led them so far out of the way, why they were here, forty miles from nowhere, and why the guide had promised to find a spring when he had known noth ing of its existence, and why, in the New Woman. 99 Oct. 2 , 1901 .

Dark-rimmed eyes, hollow cheeks and wasted form are accompan ied by listlessness and loss o f ambition. Home duties are a weariness, and social pleasures have no attraction. One of the commonest expressions of women cured by Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion is th is: * It has made a new woman of me.” There's a world of meaning in the words. It means the sparkle brought back to the eyes; the com plexion tinted with the rosy hue of healthy blood; the form rounded o u t a n e w in graceful curves; the whole body radiant with health. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription makes weak women strong and sick women well. It dries debilitating drains, heals inflammation and ulcera tion and cures female weakness. It makes new women of those prematurely aged by disease. «Dr. Pierce's medicines are the best I have ever used,” writes Mrs. C. Nelson, o f Chemawa, Marion Co., Oregon. «My health was badly run down when I consulted him by letter. My limbs were cold and my head hurt me continu ally. I was so nervous that the least thing would startle me almost into convulsions. I had palpitation of the heart so bad that I could scarcely walk sometimes. I felt utterly discour aged, but two bottles of Dr, Pierce's Favorite Prescription and one of ‘ Golden Medical Dis covery 1 made a new woman out of me.” Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing only.

We can't go no further, or your man'll drop dead as thftt snakeskln thar. As It Is, be star--' 6>ume show. We'll strike Ca- .nte trail afore dusk, when It gits cooler. It's right over thar.\ And the rugged Yost pointed a knotty fore finger across a white expanse, over which lines of heat were quivering as If the very air writhed under the piti less fire from on high. “ What good will It do Bunster If we do get there?\ whispered some one. \Good?\ returned the guide. “ Why, Char's water four mile from that nlv (rail—ef we klu git down to It.\ “Get down to It! Of course we will,” spoke up Ilnwlins. “Cheer up, old man,\ he said soothingly to the pareli-, ed Bunster, whose tongue was out and whose eyes were staring across the plalr. toward Caliente trail. “Thar's water over thar, and yer shall have a good drink, my boy.\ “ Water—yes, I see It; It's sort of gray blue, Isn’t it? Why, there's a great lake! What a sight!\ And the thirst plagued imm stared at the picture his distorted vision had eonjuveil up. and, drawing in Ills tongue, he pressed his cracked lips together as if gluing them to the brim of a glass full of the spar kling liquid, for which he would have given anything he possessed for one soul satisfying swallow. His torture and that of the friend who watched over him while he lay tossing on his blankets were allayed to a degree n few hours later, when the tierce sun repent ed and the night stole on slowly. As the evening air fanned his brow Raw lins, riding by the side of his sick friend, made light of Hie day’s mis haps and even managed a joke about Big Funster's burro being smaller than Its rider, which joke seemed very near tbe truth, though it lacked heartiness. The little caravan made its way to Caliente trail and along it to one c! the outer wails of the great canyon, where it halted for the night. Very early in the morning, before the sun had ceased his repentance, two of the men slung their canteens to their sides and started for the river, though Yost, after they had gone, said: “ It's even chances 'bout them gittiu' water; they mought and they mouglitn't. Them air canyon walls is mighty steep, but thar may be a place to git down som’ers along thar.\ Clearly the sun had determined to be as wicked as ever, and when his scorch ing, blistering rays reached the little <:amp on Caliente trail the men soon sought the shelter of the rocks. Raw lins made Bunster as comfortable as was possible, but there was very little comfort to be enjoyed. The sick man wailed for water, and his purple face was an ugly sight for his friend to gaze upon while he vigorously fanned with Ids hat the dry, hot air above his brow. Hours passed. “ W ill they never come?\ thought Rawlins. “ Why did £ not go myself? Itw a s because I thought he might die while I was gone, and I wanted to stick to him to the end. Still I should have gone, I should have gone.\ Another hour dragged its reluctant way along. It was nearly noon. There they were at last—the water bearers. But why walked they so slowly? No doubt they were tired. Yes, they were tired and worn—nearly exhausted, in fact; their clothes were In tatters, and they were shamefaced and cowed, for they brought back no water. They had started from the walled in stream with full canteens; but the ascent of the canyon side had been so toilsome, the heat so intense and tlielr thirst so great that they lm<l drunk every drop. Ugly glances shot from Zach Raw lins' eyes at the recreant ones. Ills blood was up. He would go down to the stream, though it be guarded by fiery dragons, and he would bring back a canteen full of water and steep the heartless ones In their shame. Yes, Big Bunster should have the all need ful draft If he had to go through fire to gut it. And he did go through fire, for It proved useless for Yost to tell him that a journey down to the water's edge In the cool of the morning and one made at midday were two very differ ent things to undertake. He jerked the canteen strap over his shoulder and strode quickly aw a y over the baked mesa, under the burning sun, and soon began the descent. From one great step of the rough, natural stairway to another he went, and at last he gained a point where he could look off and down Into the canyon's dark depths. Like a sinuous piece of steel the river ran Its way far below him, a strip of it visible here, another there and still another beyond, so that it seemed as if the stream burrowed through high, rocky barriers. Rawlins paused not to note the brilliant patches of color along the face of the great escarpment, and the sharply sketched chiaroscuro that marked the naked grandeur of the scene made no Impress. He only saw running sw iftly at the base of the great walls which hemmed it in from human hand the water for which the friend of his youth lay dying. The way down was difficult. lie was almost stifled by the heat; he was tortured by an in tolerable thirst; his clothing was torn by Jagged rocks; he was struck at by rattlesnakes, and, ns if this were not enough, one of the soles of his boots had become so warped by the heat and so split by the rocks ns to make his stop unsafe. In a fever of excitement he finally readied the river’s edge. He threw himself down by the brink and eagerly gulped the sparkling water. Then he filled the canteen and darted up the rocks. Fleet as had been his descent to the base of the canyon wall. It had taken him nearly two hours to make it. It had been hard enough coming down, but now came the real work. So steep was the rocky escarpment that Its ascent was one of great effort and peril even for a strong man at early dawn, but for a weak man at 2 In the afternoon It was a fearful task. How intensely hot It was there on the canyon side! How seorehlngly, un bearably hot! And yet he bore it. Though his whole body reeked with pp^uptrarton and his muscles were tightly drawn under the great strain, yet ho paused only to pick his way among the rocks. lie could not go up the way he had come down, for It was too steep. Within an hour the demon thirst had seized upon him again, clutching with fiery fingers at his throat until It seem ed almost closed. So quickly wore the bodily Juices licked up by the sun un der such tremendous effort that his very marrow seemed to have lost Its fluid portion and his tongue to have turned to a chip. Now he was in the sha<low of a great rock. IIow grateful was the shade! He paused there for a moment. lie scolded himself for his <oss of time, but he felt that moment was one spent In heaven. In passing through a great split In a rock the canteen strap was_ cuL_ and down fell the precious vessel with Its still more precious contents. The stop per flew from Its place, and a plash of water steamed up from the burning rock on which it fell. Madly he Jerked up the canteen. Thank God, only a little water had been wasted, and yet, he reflected as he replaced the cork, he would have given worlds to have sip ped what had fallen. But he hastened on. The warped and split boot sole finally cracked clear through, and he could feel the gridiron heat of the rocks upon his naked flesh, for his stocking was quickly worn away. It was now so hot that the rattle snakes did not venture forth upon the rocks, so there was no longer any dan ger from them. The real danger now, ns he viewed it, was that he would be lbio but a short time longer to keep the heck of the canteen from his lips. The water had become warm, and yet it was his one'sburce of revivification to place the flat side of the canteen against Ills sun scorched face. This was at once a delight and a torture, for, while the can cooled his flesh, the delicious liuggle guggle of the water nearly drove him mad. Thrice lie stop ped, uncorked the canteen and raised It to his Ups, and then, pushing It from him by a mighty effort, he dashed wild ly on. Soon he came to a place where the ascent was almost perpendicular end where the licat was so stifling as tlmost to close his nostrils. The way Tip was lined with cactus scrubs, whose spines pierced his hands like redhot needles when he grasped at something by which to haul himself up. The little lizards that darted into the patches of shade seemed to mock him, and Ills wistful gaze could be torn from the canteen only when It was'ab solutely necessary for him to see his way clear. “What is Ids thirst to mine?\ he moaned as for a fourth time he uncork ed the canteen. “ He Is lying in the shade, and his brow is fanned by kind ly hands, while I—I am burning.\ Then Hie swollen, purple face of Bunster rose up before him, and he shoved back the cork Into the moutli of the canteen with a spasmodic effort that seemed almost superhuman. Again he toiled on, slowly now, for his strength seemed almost spent. * * • * * * * It was dreary waiting up at the camp for the return of the water bearer. Yost gazed for hours over the white ground In the direction of the canyon, and at last he grimly gave up Zach Rawlins as a lost man, though he did not say so to his less experienced friends o f the camp. “ No chance fur ’em when their feet slip on the rocks over them air cliffs or when a rattlesnake nips ’em ’ bove the boot top. I-Ie's gone fur sartin,\ mut tered the guide. “ We'll have to bury the big un afore nightfall, fur he’s most gone, an' then put back fur the stage station afore we all drop. It's just liell, this desert life, an' I've 'bout got my till on it.\ Then the ghost of a man, witli tatters of clothing hanging from his form, darted into view around the rocks. Yost cursed the oncomer for a fool for running so hard under the burning sun. Ills legs seemed very unsteady, for he reeled as lie ran. It was fully a minute before the guide or any of them could realize that the advancing form was that of Rawlins, and in that minute the scarecrow figure had reached the couch where Big Bunster lay and. un corking the canteen, had shoved the neck of it into the nearly unconscious man’s moutli. “ Drink, ole man! It's water—good, pure water! Drink hearty, and God bless you!\ came In thin, sepulchral tones from between the blackened lips of the ghostly one. “Drink, drink!\ And the water bearer fell beside Ids comrade. Great throbs shook his frame. His breath failed, his eyes became glazed, and his dust covered head, which had hours ago lost its covering, sank down upon the sand. But in the rigid clasp of death his hand held the canteen to his comrade's lips. “ Knocked out by tbe sun,\ was Yost's comment; “but he brought back a full canteen. Waal, I ’ve seed lots on ’em, but I never seed one with his grit!\ They buried him by the rocks and wrote his name on a stake thrust into the sand at his head. And Bunster, who was coming out of death's shadow, looked ou and mourned. That very evening came jingling along the trail n train of burros, led by a thickset Mexican. There was plenty of good water In his casks and plenty of good food in his packs, and the trav elers ate and drank and went tlielr way toward Flagstaff in the Mexican’s com pany. And the sound of the tinkling bells on the burros' necks echoed from the rock under which Zach Rawlins lay and mocked his dull, cold ear. “ I've seed lots on 'em,\ repeated Yost as he told the tale to the Mexican; “ I’ve seed lots on 'em, but I nex-er seed one xvith his grit!\ SOCIETY PEOPLE WHO USE PERUNA. R. TEFT. JOHNSON AND MISS ABBE JOHNSON, OF WASHINGTON, D» C, R. TE F F T . JOHNSON, a well- known society man of Washing- ington, D. C., who played last sea son as leading man in “ The Heart of Maryland ” company, writes the follow ing letter to Dr. Hartman, of Columbus, 0.,in which he gives his opinion of the catarrh remedy, Peruna. Mr. Johnson says: ••In all my experiments with metf/- clnes In tbe effort to improve a condi tion Impaired by overwork , / have found nothing that has done so much good as Peruna. As a tonic It Is grand. I take pleasure In recommending It to professional people and to tbe public generally . \ His sister, Miss Abbe Johnson, a tal ented young actress and society woman, also of Washington, D. C., speaks in the highest terms of Peruna. She s a y s : “ I take pleasure in recommending your Peruna as an excellent remedy. I heartily Join with my brother, Mr. Tefft. Johnson, the leading man in “ The Heart of Maryland,” in testifying to Peruna as a fine tonic. Professional people who are traveling from city to city should not be without Peruna.” The above letters were written from Washington, D. C., Fourteenth and I streets. Mr. Robert B. Mantel!, tbe great ro mantic actor, says: 4iPeruna Is re freshing to tbe nerves and brain . It makes me feel like a new man. ” ERUNA HAS M A NY FRIENDS among society people everywhere. They all recommend it as a fine tonic, excellent for coughs, colds and hoarseness to which they are so liable. Late hours, irregular meals, the cease less rounds of social duties, the conse* qnent sapping of nervous vitality, make the society man or woman especially liable to affections of catarrhal origin. Vice President Roxa Tyler, promi nently connected in Chicago, and Vice President of the Illinois Woman's Al liance, in a letter written from 910 East 60 th street, says: ••Duringtbepastyeat I gradually lost flesh and strength until I was unable to perform my work properly. Peruna gave me new lift and restored my strength.\ George Backus,in “ W ay Down East'1 Co.,says: “ I know of nothing so effica cious In the speedy relief from hoarse ness as Peruna. It is invaluable to all persons who use their voice in public work. It almost immediately relieves huskiness and renders the voice strong and natural.” Miss Maude L illian Berry, one of the leading opera singers of America, writes i “ Long ago my nerves were in danger of absolute and hopeless collapse from the strain of hard work, study and excite ment.

This occurs at infre quent intervals, as may be readily im agined. A watch should bo fed or oiled every 18 months, even if running in the best of time. The oil dries in that time, and tbe wheels are likely to wear one another. “All jewelers examine watches in the same way. It seems to be a tradition of the craft. First, a man will look at the hands, as 1 hax^e been doing. If they are not caught, they will take out the balance wheel and examine the pin and the pivots, which you see here. Sometimes I do not find the trouble for days. The hardest thing to detect is a slight ‘bur’ on one of the wheels. This may throw the entire watch out of gear. “ Now, I will wind this watch of yours and show you that all the trouble with it is that it is run down. Unusual? Oh, no. That frequently happens. Some one is in here every day with an unwound watch, thinking that it is out of kelter because it will not run. They forget to wind it and are afraid to do it over again. Women are our best cus tomers in that line. Of course I could get $1 for this, but the talk will an swer. “ Now, when you go home wind your watch in the morning; no, not at bed time, but when you get up. That gives It the full spring to work ou during the day, when the jars and jolts are more numerous, and hold your watch still when you wind it and wind the key. That’s all; try that.\ And the jeweler handed back the watch, running beautifully. — Kansas City Journal. THE LIFE OF WATCHES. In flu e n c e * a n d C o n d itio n * T h a t A f fe c t B e h a v i o r o f A l l T im e p ie c e s . “Watches,\ said the jeweler as he screwed a little glass into one eye and squinted into a case of xvlieels, “arc like human beings in many ways. They are delicate, they run well only when In perfect order, and they require at tention once so often, whether they *top or not. They become sick. In a way, as we do, and they get off their balance. But, unlike us, when their mainspring breaks they are not neces sarily done for unless In another world. They can have new main springs. We can't. “ Watches, all jokes aside, are really almost human sometimes. They take cold readily. Never lay n watch on a cold marble table or near an open win dow all night after you have xvoru it next to your warm body all day. It will contract a sort of pneumonia, and ten to one it will stop before long if the practice Is continued. The cold con tracts the metal pivots, which, small as they are, v*ot be smaller, and they sin ink. Thus the wi^eis^nnnot move. “ Watches are magnctTzei), . . t , by the persons xvho wear them. I haw seen the statement that watches x'ary 'n .. time keeping with the health of the wearer and that If changed from one person to another they will also show slight variations. AH of that Is true. The static electricity of a person may affect a watch. All of us tliroxv tills off—some move than others. Dark per sons give off more than light ones do and a dark woman more than any one else. Dark women should have rubber cases for their xvntchvs If they wish to have them keep perfect time. “ Never lay a watch flat at night aft er it lias been worn in a vertical posi tion nil day. It throxx-s It off its base, so to speak. If the plx'ots be xx'orn, the wheels will not run level. “A sudden Jar will often stop a watch, which runs regularly at that—such a jar as getting on or off a car suddenly. The hairspring’s catching does this. The jolt comes at the exact fraction of Sir Squire Bancroft, In a lecture on the stage in London, said that when he was a boy he scraped up many a shilling to go into the pit to see Phelps act at Sadler’s Wells theater and Charles Kean at the Princess, with both of whom he subsequently played as a young country actor.
