Too Much, for the Cowboy.
i The cowboys do not have any such
( fun as they used to have, but those who
make their headquarters in this neigh-
borhood have been enjoying themselves
a good deal of late. Some time ago the
boys had nothing to do for six months
in the year. Now they are busy nearly
all the time. First comes the general
round -up, then the calf roundup, then
' haying, then the beef round -up, then
the gatheringin of bulls and weak cows,
endf. fetidly a winter feeding
of hay.
Many of the old-time cowboys in this
• section resented the idea of leaking
hay, and some of thein quitted the
business in disgust when asked to go
• into the field for that purpose. One of
the dissatisfle:l members of the frater-
nity was Alex Thebold, a•tnan who con-
sidered himself one of the toughest on
the range. Ile made a good deal of
fun of the 'haymakers, and whipped one
or two of them in fist fights when they
undertook to reply to his taunt;.
After a while he got a reputation as a
pugilist, and one man after another

The Average of Impoliteness.
Exterior fairness does not always
mean politeness. A man took a seat
among the waiting in a barber shop of
a Broadway hotel. There were four in
the row when he came; and, after suc-
cessive calls of "Next" had taken them
all to chairs, he arose half out of his
sitting posture at each repetition of the
word. I said to myself that here was
a modest, retiring gentleman. who pre-
ferred to let ruder fellows get ahead of
him than to assert his rights; and I
marveled that such a foolwouldbe able
to gain so good a livelihood as was in-
dicated by his excellent clothes and
healthy skin. At length my turn came
about, except that he was still there.
Again he came to an upright posture,
gazed meekly at the caller of "Next,"
and settled back into his seat. 1
"It is your turn," I said.
eAnd I don't thank you for telling
me," he remarked, confidentially.
"You've lost me a wager. I'd made a
bet that I could lose my turn here ten
times in succession, although half 'ris-
ing every time. I was counting on a
