wii aR Gs apes tase alia Rei se Colhanlt CUCM ILA ev * Thursday, July 17, Sandow Became the Strongest. Man By Rev. Thomas B, Gregory r Coprright, 1019, by The Press Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World.) LL of us have heard of Eugene Sandow, the “world’s strongest man,” and many of us have witnessed the actual performances of } his marvellous feats, but not many know just how and why it was ‘that Sandow acquired his almost superhuman physical prowess, To begin with, Sandow was not strong. On the other hand, he was “much weaker than the average boy, and interesting beyond measure is the story of how he became the athletic wonder of the world, It seems that Sandow’s father took him one day to an art museum, where he saw, among other things, the statues of Hercules and the Apollo Belvetese, ‘The boy fairly glowed with excitement as he stood gazing upon the Statues, and finally, having calmed down, he said to his father, “Where did such splendid men live?’ He was told that they lived in ancient Greece. “And how did they get to be euch men?” the boy inquired, “By exercise,” he was told. “Could I do it?” “Why not? Suppose you try it,” | ‘Peplied his father. ‘ °°" The boy took his father at tis yho all the world. "" Sandow made himself strong—the strongest human being on earth— @y exercising his muscles. te He made up his mind to become an Apollo tn physical symmetry and te Hercules in physical strength, and he succeeded—and he succeeded word, with the result that is known y training his muscles, slowly, intelligently, sclentifically, until he be-} weame the matchless athlete that figured in his dream as he stood before Fehose statues in tho art museum. '*°" Je may be just as well, while we are about it, to be honest, and to ‘Remit that in all probability every one could not, ty exercising the muscles, a Sandow, any more than every one, by exercising the mental aculties, could become a Michael Angelo or @ Gladstone, a Shakespeare ‘wr a Webster. \ But the main fact is undeniable, that Sandow reached the perfection wot his physical manliness through the exercise of his muscles, and that he same kind of exercise would unquestionably, to greater or lesser ‘Megree, add to the athletic perfection of any one who might practise it. Speaking of the Michael Angelos, Gladstones, Shakespeares and ‘Web- ‘wters, it is well known that it was by exercising their intellectual muscles, #0 to speak, that they developed the mental strength that made them as “pxtraordinary in their line as Sandow was in his, - It the mighty intellectual gladiators had been content with allowing | their montal faculties to Me fallow they would most certainly have lived ‘and died “unwept, unhonored and unknown.” The price of intellectual Mexcellence is the steady and faithful use of the intellectual muscles, just ‘a# physical excellence is the price of the exercise of the body. “<< For every one, and for every high aim, whether of the physical or the ‘mind stamp, there remain the words of the world's master poet: “For USE can almost change the stamp of nature, ‘ And master the devil himself, or throw him out ° With wondrous potency.” ~ ‘The Housewife’ s Scrapbook’ the sun for a few hours.

Haze them back here into the detention corral.” “We're gins to see, me an’ you,” answered Miller, “I don’t just know, But I do know there's a big guy down there thas come onto the ranch @ couple of hours ago an’ that don't belong here, H that guy talking. Name of Nelson. He ain't done any talking to me,-but from a word or two I picked up from one of the milk- ers I got a hunch he's been sent over by Trevors.” Nelson, the big emissary for Trev- ore—for he admitted the fact openly and pleasantly—took off his hat to Judith and sald he guessed he'd be going. And the men with whom he been talking, including all of the milkers and all of the other workmen upon whom Nelson could get his meddiesome hands at short notice, all men whom Trevors had placed here, made known in hesitant speech or awkward silence that they were go- ing with Nelson. “They've got to be milked, Charlie,” was all that she said, “Who will milk them until I can get @ new crew?" “Till tack in an’ help,” answered Miller ruefully. “I hate it worse'n poison, an’ I can't milk more'n ten cows, workin’ twenty-four-hour shifts. “Get Masters, the electrician, on the job, Get anybody you can, I'm going back to the ranchhouse pretty goon and I'll try to send some one from there.” In spite of her intentions, it was nearing the time of dusk when returned to the ranchhouse, As came up the knoll from the barn she saw for the first time a thin line of bluish smoke rising from the north ridge, Saw and understood the new menace. Por that way had Benny, the dis- charged cook, gone. CHAPTER VI. T was after eight o'clock when ‘Tripp rode in on a sweat-wet horse, Judith met him in the courtyard, giving him her two hands impulsively, “[m #0 glad you've come, Doc!” she cried softly. “Oh, you don't know how glad—yet.” She called Jose to mount and then led the way into the great living-room, where deep cush- {ons and leather chairs made for com: fort. “Prettier than ever, eh, Judy?" ‘Tripp cocked his head to one side and gave his unqualified approval of the slim, supple body and superb car- riage of this girl of the mouatains, warming to the vivid, vital beauty “Been driving thos take Tripp's crippled me milkers away that he has come near doing I know how much harm in hi Crowdy tu®m those calves with the lung-worm out into the fields with the others; not just that during the last few months he has lost money for us right and left; not just chat Benny, the cook, has tried to fire ‘s that last?’ said Tripp “Tried to smoke you out, quickly, huh?” Ghe told htm briefly how she had first seen the smoke as she came pack to the ranch-hous how she ‘ marriage had been secret, and when ‘ Elizabeth heard of it she had Sey- “mour committed to the Tower while + Arabella was detained as @ prisoner %4m the house of Sir Thomas Parry.

But, Doc, be must have known, too, that at any time there might occur the very thing which has happened—that he'd lose his job, He strikes me as @ rather long-headed t he you?” “Yea,” he answered, “You're rignt Judith, There's nothing like se sure.” not through with us,” con- the girl thoughtfully; “you could read that in the look of his 4: and eye when he left, Just w! stands to make on his play, I don't know. But I do know that the West- ern Lumber crowd is offering us only @ quarter of what they'd be willing to pay if they had’ to. That means that they could afford to bribe Bayne Trevors pretty heavily and still save half a million on the deal if he suc- ceeded in the thing he has begun.” “In bis way,” admitted Tripp thoughtfully, “Trevors is a big man, Big men cost big money. And, be- sides, \t looks to me as though he were a heavy stockholder in the Western Lumber. He'd stand to win two ways.’ “Another thing I want you to do,” Judith went on, “is to try to locate all of dad's old men whom Trevors let go. Johnny Hodge and Kelley end Harper and Tod Bruce. We'll neod them. We've got to have men taat crooked money can't bu: “Aren't you magnifying things, Ju- dith?” asked Tripp quietly. “There's such a thing as law in this gountry, you know.” But she shook her head. “Oh, he has been careful not to leave any definite proof behind him,” “You hit the bell that timo!” laughed Tripp, and Judith smited with him as there came to their ears the faint tinkle of the telephone bell in_ the office, Judith excused herself and has- tenad to ans’ the summons. Has- tened because she wanted to be back with Tripp as seon as might is !" Her voice rang out denly and Tripp sprang,to his wondering what had put that note into her exclamation, “Doc! Come it? he asked sharply, “There was some one here,” she told him quickly, “He went out that way, I think. Look through the lilacs.” The telephone bell was still in. sistently ringing, and they turned back to the ofMce, “Judy.” said Tripp solicitously, “don't you go and get nerves, now.” “You think I imagined the whole thing!" She looked at him with clear, confident eyes. “Don't you fool yourself for one little minute, Doo ane) . I'm not the imagining kind— ye She snatched up the telephone in- strument, “Hello,” said Judith. ‘Who is it?” It was the telegraph operator in Rocky Bend. A message for Miss Judith Sanford from Pollock Hamp- ton, San Francisco, And the mes- sage ran: What were you thinking of to £ etrick ‘Trevors? Thoroughly excellent man. You should have consulted me. Don't do anything more until I come, Send conveyance to meet Saturday train, Bringing five guests with me. POLLOCK HAMPTON, Judith turned frowning to Tripp. “As if I didn’t have enough on my hands already,” she exclaimed bit- terly, “without Hampton dragging his fool guests into the mix-up, [ could slap his face. CHAPTER VII. USY days followed for Judith Sanford and for every man remaining upon Blue Lake Ranch. A score of men, in- cluding the milkers, Johnson, the irrigation foreman and his crow of laborers, had quit work, going over openly to Rayne Trevors at the West- ern Lumber Camp. He had work there for every man of them. Almost ber fret angwer to ors’s coup was to telograph San Frangisco for a Firth milking ma- chine, together with an expert sent out by the Firth Company to Install and superintend its working for the first few days. At the same time she hired from one of the Sacra- mento dairies a man who was to be foreman of her ,own dairy industry, @ capable fellow with an intimate practical knowledge of automatic milkers. He, with @ couple of strip- pers paid overtime wages, managed until the dairy orew could be builded up again, new foreman from the first took the greater part of this ourden off her shoulders. Mrs, Simpson, the matron from Rocky Bend, arrived, true to ber promise and, motherly soul that she ‘was, took a keen interest in Judith’ comforts and in caring for the bi house, of which she immediately waxed proud with an air of semi- rietorah| pus a alee for Bud Lee, who had al the education of a string of colts, Busy days for Doo who, unhi tru ed, alded at every turn by his ployer, was from dawn until dark among the ranch live stock, all but feeling pulse and ety hemes ture of horses, ry calves, hogs and mules. fe stopped the calf sickness, effect! case excepting one. cures in every nd the reat of the stock he finally gave @ clean bill $1 of health. Busy days for Carson, Painstak- ingly he imated to the head the number of cattle the pastures should ‘be carrying, counting from long ex~ perience upon the ra months to come from Aug until December; estimating values; appearing at the week's end to suggest the purchase of herd of calves from the John Peters Dairy Company, to be had now at a very attractive figure. And suggesting, almost insistently, upon buying a certain Shorthorn bull worth twice the twelve hundred dol- lags asked for him. Busy days for the foremen who had held over from the management of Trevora or who had been taken on since, The first crop of alfalfa, shot through with fox- tails, must be cut without delay and fed into the silos before the beards of the interloping growth could harden, Busy days for the short- handed milking crew; busy days of installing the new milking machines. With Saturday came Pollock Hampton and his guests. Trevors had misnamed him a fool, aweepingiy mistaking youth, Dusiness inexpert- ence and a careless way for lack of brains, Just a breezy young fellow, lika’ble, gay hearted, keen for the joy of life, scarcely more than @ boy after all, “Look here!” he exclaimed to Ju- dith, before she had had time for more than a sweeping appraisal of his friends, “Why didn't you tell me you were up to a thing like this? Great Scott, Judith, you don't know what you are tackling, do you? It's ripping of you; you're a sheer won- der to tie into it; you've got no end of nerye.” ‘ Accompanying young Hampton were “Major” Langworthy, a little short, fat, bald gentleman, who, so far as the knowledge of his club members went, had never been con- nected with any part of the army or navy, unless one counted his con- genial brigades of cocktail drinkers Mrs, Langworthy, his supercilious, uninteresting wife; Marcia, his la guldly graceful daughter, in whom Hampton gave certain signs of being considerably | interested; Marshal Rogers, the Oakland lawyer, and , Frank Farris, the artist. Also Marcia’s maid and Hampton's Jap- anese valet, Fujiokt. Pollock Hampton, holding a third of the shares of the big venture, with his legitimate claim upon a third of the income, was of course a factor which must be taken into account, Judith, knowing little of him, sought to know more, watched him when he was talking, got his views upon many matters that came up haphazard, and found that, while she liked him, sho would have been more than glad if he had not come to still further com- plicate matters for her, For it was open and shut that his interest aad enthusiasm would demand a volce. She asked frankly how long be planned to stay? “I'm here for good," he answered cheerfully. His explanation followed with a grin, quite as though he were telling her of some rare good news: “Money's all ®, creditors are nui~ sances, there's no prospect with you here of having you send me anything. What is left for me but to stay?” It soon became obviou ago Hampton had given admiration to Bayne Tr Trevors had taken the time, his own purpose in mind, to look Hampton some months ago in San Francisco. rther, he had created the impression which he sought to “I imagine he won't care to come.” Launched upon his first business venture, Hampton went to the tele- phone. ‘That evening at table he sur- prised Judith not @ little when he said cagually that Trevors had eaid he'd run over in y OF Ao, &s soon a he could find ate that?” he asked, Oreaking o For bg tire A Judith had started to ut now she merely shrugged houlders and gat in silent thoughtfulness, During the last week of May a rumor came to Judith’s ears of which, at first, she thought lttle. coming to her upon @ bit of ranch business, remarked dryly before tak. ing his departure, that a report had it around among his men—Poker ce had mentioned it to him—that Blue Lake ranch wag on its last legs; baad it was even Lh.) doubted if the ever saw another pay day be- fore the whole affair went into a re- celver’s hands, Judith laughed at him and told him not to worry. But, when in the rumor cam: this time telephoned up to her from the Lower End by Doo Trij she frowned and wondered, And she was careful, upon the 30th of May, to send Charlie Miller, the storekeeper, into Rocky Bend for the monthly payroll She gave him her check for lie’s safe at the store and in her own here, would more than pay the monthly wages, Charlie iett for rey A Bend in the afternoon, spend- ing the night in town to get the cus- tomary morning start for the ranch.
