Upon learning: the common appli cation in the East of the name gun man cne from the gold mining re gioas of the West is shocked. Ou there the word was first used, w< gathei from tales of the old timers to describe the armed guard who sa by the side of the driver of a stag* coaci carrying bullion to the near est railway for shipment to a min r bank. This guard carried tfi< aawod off shotgun which has sine* / Am* intn wider use and with whid American troops serving in trenche: in France were armed. "Who's on the box?"

Before the shotgun, rather thai pistol or rifle, was proved by experi eoce in the haunts 6f highwaymei po be a highly efficient deterrent ol desperate deeds, a developer of discretion rather than valor, the armec custo iian of the bullion box was called a guard; a name no more racy of tl\e soil of the western slope ol the Sierras than would be the name of an English ballad hero. The shotgun advanced the man on the bos into the spotlight; he deserved s mere; discriminating name and hie new weapon gave it to him. Thus he tliA minmnn wc\ano vnv guiuumi.

These two were gunmen; quiet generally slight, pleasant spoken mild eved men: the kind a top ser geant would pick out if his favorite lieutenant wanted a rifle team for z match, with a side bet, against i boastful team from another companj of the regiment. One of them, lying at night on z blanket in a flimsy cotton tent ir which were temporarily shelterec rich stuffs the mine superintendent! and their wives purchased, attractec by the noise of a knif# cutting th< ^ B'ing, saw the shadow of^three mer cWt on the tent by brilliant moon light. The gunmen fired three times tiien went outside and made his tar get3 as comfortable as might be ii the sagebrush.

I , 1 If you are in trouble or a difficulty, J tell your wife, that is, if you have one, all about it at once. Ten to one, 1 her invention will solve your difficulty sooner than all your logic. The I wit of woman has been praised, but her instincts are quicker and keener J than her reason. Take counsel with your wife, or your mother, or sister, 5 and be assured light will flash upon ; ' your darkness. Women are too com- ' monly pronounced shallow in all but ' purely womanish affairs. No philo| sophical student of the sex thus judges ' them. Their intuitions, or insights, ] 1 are subtle, and if they cannot see a ' cat in the dark cupboard, theie is ' no cat there. In counseling a man to tell his wife, we would go farther ' and advise him to keep none of his ; affairs secret from hei. Many a home has been happily saved, and many a ' fortune retrieved by a man's full con' fidence in his "better half." Woman is far more a seer and 1 prophet than a man, if she have a fair chance. As a general rule, wive.? ; confide the minutest of their plans ' and thoughts to their husbands, having no involvements to screen from ' them. Why not reciprocate, if but ' for the pleasure of meeting confidence with confidence ? We are certain that ' no man succeeds so well in the world 1 as he, who, taking a partner for life 1 niakes her the partnei of all his purposes and hopes. What is wrong of his impulses or judgment she will 1 check and set right with her almost universally ngni insuncxs. neip- , ' meet" was no insignificant title, as i ' applied to man's companion.
