New Line Is
Did you ever hear of the mountain
railroads of Colorado? It will amaze
you as much as a tale from a story
book. One of these lines runs almost
due west from Denver. It climbs the
great Continental Divide, which rises
more than a mile high, a mile west
of the city, and this climbing of the
Continental Divide is a feat which
has astonished civil engineers in
every section of the world.
If you will look on the map of the State of Colorado you will see a vast empire without a mile of railway stretching between this city and Salt Lake, Utah. The Union Pacific railroad runs north from Denver to Cheyenne, Wyo., and crosses the level plains of Ogden, Utah, turning toward the south to enter the City of the Salts. The Denver & Rio Grande railway runs south to Colorado Springs and Pueblo and swings towards the east, passing through the marine defences, Royal Gorge and follows the Arkansas River, turning northward again to reach Salt Lake City. The Union Pacific railroad runs 627 miles in its passage over the sage brush plains between Denver and Salt Lake City. The Rio Grande runs 741 miles in swinging with many a loop and curve down toward the southern part of the state, in its

search for an easy crossing of the
great range.
If you stand in the streets of Denver and look toward the setting sun you will see why no railroad can easily go in a direct line westward from Colorado's capital. The great range of mountains to the westward of the city raises rampart-like toward the sky, the summits of its lofty peaks being clothed the year around with wreaths of perpetual snow. It had long been the dream of Colorado men to run a railroad toward the west over the top of this great divide and tap the almost limitless resources of the mighty empire that lies beyond this towering wall. This would link the city to Utah with bands of steel, and cut down the running time of trains across the continent so the trip from the Atlantic to the Pacific will be shortened by nearly a day.
The company that is now the Burlington road once tried to run a line across this great divide, but the science of civil engineering was not enough advanced in those days to enable it to be done successfully. More than $1,000,000 was tunnels in hills.
bridges and grades—only to be abandoned when the men who were furnishing the money saw how desperate was the undertaking to subdue the stupendous forces of nature and cross the barrier of rocky peaks. And now this new road is being built through the most beautiful scenery of the state, and all precedents are shattered by the mighty undertaking.

men who were surveying a line of railroad to follow the grade of rivers. The storm during later years has been abated. The Mofaf road, as the line across the river, cuts, cuts across the water courses, follows the ridges of the foot hills, gains little by little in elevation, as it winds up around the lofty sides of the giant peaks and finally traces the length of its shining rails across the top of Rollins Pass, 11,660 feet above the sea. It is worth a journey clear to Colorado to see the wondrous panorama of scenery that spreads away in every direction from the train as the great engines struggle on up the rugged shale. The train leaves Denver in the morning and passes through smiling farm lands where shallow streams murmur along through green meadows and irrigating ditches glisten in the bright Colorado sunshine. The road swings back and forth along the base of the low foot hills, and the engine dragging its train of coaches begins to snort and wave its banner of black smoke as if preparing for a conflict with giants. Before the pass, the engine plains with Denver like a jeweled ornament upon its surface lie below him. The train has climbed to a height which enables the gazer to look eastward for what seems an intermin

able distance. On the train struggles
up the 2 per cent grade which lies bet-
ween Denver and the base of the
main range. The track is as smooth
as any railroad in the world; the rails
are great sections of steel, eighty
pounds to the yard—the heaviest
made. The road beet is hawn from
solid rock and the train rolls over its
level surface as easily as a billiard
ball propelled across the broadcloth
surface of a table.
The first forty-five miles of the trip leads up from Denver to the base of the great Continental Divide. South Boulder creek meets the road shortly after the train leaves Denver. After running a few miles the road rises above the creek until finally the stream bowling along bank-full like a veritable torrent, lies hundreds of feet below the pathway of the train. This stream is a favorite resort for trout, which can be seen darting quickly to cover under the sheltering bank of the river. The horse goes thundering by above them. Finally the train pulls into Tolland, situated in the midst of Boulder Park. Tolland is a summer resort place, where a miniature lake filled with

the sides of the mountain ramparts that form the water shed of the continent. When near the top great gulches yawn beside the track, in which mountain streams trickle like threads of silver on their way to the far-off ocean.
High above Boulder Park the track swings around two lakes, Yankee Doodle and Jenny lake; one an emerald green and the other as blue as the skies that bend o'er Italy. These bodies of water, snow-born and reflecting the skies and peaks above them since time began, change color as the phases of the sun tint them. Their prismatic quality affords endless entertainment for those who pass; at times they sparkle as the hints ofawn touch their surfaces; then in the glaze the moon they reflect back green and blue and when evening's light gilds them with its hues they mingle red, orange and the colors of fire in their depths. Travelers who have wandered far about the globe say these two mountain lakes are matched nowhere in the world for lonesome atmosphere and the serene beauty of their placid depths.
A FEW STORIES
Sir Oliver Lodge, the scientist, is a keen golfer and is a master game at the Sutton Coldfield and Felixstowe golf clubs. He was taught the game at St. Andrews thirty years ago by Professor Tait, who said, "You don't play golf with your muscles; you play with your morals." "I hope," added Sir Oliver, after telling the story, "no one will consider my morals are as bad as my golf."
Matter of Money.
A returning sportsman was met by a friend who exclaimed, "Halloa, old man had any luck shooting?" "I should say I have," replied the other, "shot seventeen ducks in one day." "Were they wild?" asked the friend, interested in the feat. "Well—no—not exactly," responded the sportsman, "but the farmer who owned them."
Not His Fault.
A first grade boy brought perfect spelling papers home for several weeks, and then suddenly began to miss five and six out of ten.
Beyond these lakes the track's windings takes you to a sight that has no counterpart in the world's railroad building. The mountain juts out sheer a thousand feet above the valley, forming a variable point of rock low on the old Lookout Mountain. The track runs along the side of this towering cliff, rising by a steep grade all the way, and just before reaching the farthest point above the gorge below, slips through a short tunnel and goes serenely on its way. This hole in the mountain looks remarkably similar to a keyhole in a door. And Rinkin's Pass! The highest point is 11,600 feet above the tides! This elevated spot is a few miles beyond where the road runs like a thread of steel, through the mighty point of the mountain's rock.
170 FEET BELOW THE TRESTLE.
that is thrust out into space. There is something awe-inspiring about this elevated place that you cannot explain. You stand there and try to imagine what the scene is like when the dawn rises out of the abyss to the eastward, or when the sapphire west is kindled with the crimson glow of one of Colorado's hectic sunsets. Huge banks of perpetual snow that defy the sun lie along the track to the astonishment of those who have come from regions where the touch of spring vanquishes the pearly precipitation that has fallen during the winter months. In all the realms of earth where railroads run, there is no sight more startlingly picturesque and strikingly novel than these majestic rows of never melting snow fifty miles from Denver, on the crest of the Continental side. This new line has now been completed 147 miles of the 500 mile stretch between Denver and Salt Lake City. It is the only line of railroad in the United States under construction. The territory which it opens for settlement is 500 miles long by 250 miles wide, the largest fertile area in the dominions of Uncle Sam without a
railroad. It is estimate that this line will be completed in two years more and that Denver will leap to a city of 300,000 people, so great will be the stimulus of the new territory opened up.
There is coal, gold and silver mines and immense stretches of rich agricultural lands, so vast that all the states of New England might be dropped into this vast area and be lost.

**Matter of Money.**
A returning sportsman met by a friend who called "Halloo, old man, had any luck shooting" "I should say I have," replied the other; "shot seventeen ducks in one day," "Were they wild?" asked the friend, "not exactly," responded the sportman, "but the farmer who owned them was."
Not His Fault.
A first grade boy brought perfect spelling papers home for several weeks, and then suddenly began to miss five and six out of ten.
"How is this son?" asked his father, "teacher's fault," replied the boy. "How is it the teacher's fault?" "She moved the boy that sat next to me."
His Winning Hand
Sir John Easthope was playing whist in Paris and his opponent's partner was Lady Wyettville, a sharp, active old woman of over eight. She re-read the letter, rasped out with anger, "Madame, you are a aecht!" Her ladyhands's eyes flashed fire, and she rose from her chair; but before anything else could be done Sir John, who had quickly re-read the letter, rasped out with anger, "you dame, you cheat abominably, and in the course of a long life I have"—laying his hand upon his heart—"invariably noticed that the handsomer a woman is the more" she cheats at cards."
The Spinal Cord.
A governess in giving a physiological lecture to some board-school children asked, "What is the spinal cord?" I know, miss; the spinal cord is what runs down all the way of you with head on top and your legs at the end.
Seasonable
Little Johnny was going to school when he met the local clergyman. "Well, Johnny, off to school? How are you getting on?" asked the devout gentleman, one. "Do you know the clergyman Johnny?" thought so. They are—are—are—" "Johnny, Johnny," exclaimed the clergyman in pained surprise; "there's spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Didn't you know that? Now what face cleared immediately—as if you answered immediately—as if you answered." "The football season, sir."
Self-Interest.
A real estate firm had lots for sale in a new suburban addition. The young, enthusiastic member was writing the advertisement, eloquence flowing from his pen. He urged intending purchasers to seize the passing moment.
"Napoleon not only met the opportunity," he said. "The senior partner read this line in the advertisement slowly and carefully. 'This fellow Napoleon,' he observed quizzically, 'what's the use of advertising him with our money?'
Wanted Glory Divine.
"I want 4 cent's worth of glory divine," said a laxafen-haired toot, looking intently at the clerk of a drug store. "I don't know what a faintie voice either laughed or smiled, while Mr. Brown, the druggist, looked serious and appeared to be thinking.
"Are you sure it is glory divine you want?" he asked the little one.
"Yes, sir," was the prompt response.
"For what does your mother want it?" was the next question.
"To throw it around the room and in the back yard," said the little tot innocently.
"Isn't it chloride of lime she wants?" asked the drug man.
The little girl nodded her assent.
Garb for Grooms.
Not long ago a large clothing house in New York received a letter from the remote Southwest to this effect: "It is the proper dress for a growl in the center."
groom in the afternoon"
"The man in the room should the mail request inquiry to the livery department, and the head of that department dictated a brief reply:"
"Bottle green, bottle mat, fawns-colored shirt, top boots, silk skirt or cockade. We can make you prices."
"In about a week came a plaintive note:"
"always knew it was expensive to get married, but can't you suggest something a little less elaborate?"
No Danger.
One day recently there entered the office of a Philadelphia real estate man a tattered and forlorn girl of fourteen or thereabout, who sidled up to his desk with a memorandum book in her hand.
Ordinarily the Philadelphia is the politest of persons, but this day he was so busy that he knew not which way to turn. So, with a swift glance from the corner of his eye, he said rather sharply what you want: "Mister on chance on our go-cart," pleaded the girl, hesitatingly, "Your go-cart!" repeated the real estate man, who is a bachelor. "What on earth could I do with a go-cart, even if I should it?" "Don't get it, mister." breathlessly came from the girl "Please buy a chance!"
"Do you ever drink to excess?" askee the girl's father,
"I never touch liquor of any kind, tir."
"How about tobacco?"
"I do not smoke. I have never had a cigar or a cigarette in my mouth."
"Ever gamble?"
"Never. I do not know one card from another."
"I suppose you swear sometimes?"
"No. Nor. An cath has never passed my lips."
"All. Right. Come out and have a stick of candy with."

MISDIRECTED SYMPATHY.
More Fact.

ALL GET THE FEVER
COMPLAINT PECULIAR TO THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.
Residence at Washington Seems Invariably to Afflict Public Men with What Is Sometimes Called "Swelled Head."
"I can tell you what is the matter with him," said a woman who has spent the greater part of her life in Washington. She had been listening to a conversation in the course of which an official had been warmly criticised.
"His case," she went on, "is simply an aggrudated one of what I call Washington fever. I have seen scores, I may say hundreds, of public men come here to the capital in one berth or another, and sooner or later the Washington fever attacks nine out of ten of them.
"There's one sign of the disease, though, that nobody misses. You can always spot a case of Washington fever by gently manipulating the patient's sense of importance. If a pronounced enlargement is detected the diagnosis is unmistakable. "I have a very interesting case of the disease in my age. The subject was a western man who had been placed in charge of a certain bureau in one of the department buildings. He hadn't been there long before he pranced pompously around to see the captain of the watch in that building with a demand that one of the watchmen be discharged.
"It it seems that when the official, whose name you've never even heard and probably never will hear, would come in at the door where the watchman was stationed the latter merely bowed and said: 'Good morning, Mr. Blank,' or something like that. He did not hop up, take off his hat and pull his forelock, as the official demanded he should.
"Well, I won't insist upon the forelock business, but the rest is true. The little official was hurt in his very much swelled dignity.
"You have thought he might be appeased by the courtesan that the watchman be required to jump up and salute his passage. But no; discharge was what he craved.
"I don't care so much for myself," said he, "but what would the public say?"
"The poor little man would have fits if he knew that the public doesn't care a toot of a penny whistle about him. He's got the Washington fever and he feels as big as Washington, Jefferson, and a whole bunch of Adams all put together. They all get at least a touch of it now and then."
Panacea for Domestic Trouble.
Seeking relief for domestic troubles a negro woman who resembled so much as she did the "before" half of an anti-fat remedy appeared at the ode days.
"I sew a wrong woman," she kissed in a give-me-back-those-papers-Jack-Dalton voice. "Ah wants redress."
"What's the trouble?" inquired the sympathetic judge.
"I't bout mah ole man. He's done been cayn on high wif a lot uv dee young niggh gals, an' it got so bad twil I don' see him more'n once a week. Somepin's got t' be done!"
The judge's eye have held a crafty glaem. "You are seeking a divorce—a legal separation?" he questioned.
"Go 'long, man! Divoe nothin! Think I'm gwine t' gin 'im what he wants and low dat man who, dispiite all his cussedness, to dhesomest niggh in Willow Tree alley t' go skyhootin' roun' mong dem gals? Na' sah! I doan want no divoe ner dar legal sepitition yer's talkin' 'bout. What I want is a injunction!"
Secretary Taft as a Reporter
Like Chief Justice Fuller, Secretary Wilson and other men high in the public service and confidence, Secretary Taft began his career as a newspaper man. The first money earned by him after being graduated from Yale was the court reporter on a Cincinnati paper, the old Commercial Gazette, then edited by Murat Halstead. Mr. Taft started at six dollars a week, and when he quit worked up to "20 per." All the time he was thus engaged he was studying law at night under his father's direction. Necessity did not drive him to the work, but his father was a man of fortune, but the secretary chose because it was the readiest entrance to active employment that brought him daily in contact with lawyers and court proceedings. The secretary likes to discuss newspaper work with reporters. He uses the shop terms with a familiarity denoting his former experience in the business, and understands how to outline a "story" for the "boys" as well as any member of the administration.
Repairs Always Going On. In the superintendent's domain below the court, and the hardware store, with every component for the use of carpenters and electricians, says a writer in the New York Sun in an article on the capitol at Washington. Not far off one opens a door and finds a carpenter busily sawing and nailing, making cheats and railings and shelves and what not.
Painters, decorators, tilemakers, electricians are coming and going. There are about 20,000 incandescent lights in the capitol. These, together with the wiring for telephones: and electric bells, of which there are hundreds, keep a corps of men busy all the time.

DOWN SOUTH LOGIC.
The New Orleans Picayune emits
this outburst of down south logie:
“The Haitian government is a dis-
grace to civilization, demonstrating
clearly the inability of the black race
to conduct orderly administration of
affairs when left to itself. As im-
portant forcign interests are in-
volved, and as this country is moral-
ly bound for the proper behavior of
Haiti, our government at Washing-
ton must either permit the European
powers to chastise Haiti and take
such steps as may be necessary to
establish an orderly government in
the island or take the initiative itself
to do away with the existing condi-
tion of affairs and take hold of the
situation with a firm hand. The
black republic is an arrant humbug
and a menace to civilization, hence
the sooner it is ended the better for
all concerned.”
The Picayune fails to see that the
United States, under a fair applica-
tion of the principle, should begin at
hhome and reform some other gov:
ernments, which are a disgrace to
civilization; for instance, that of
Loitisiana.

allow Italy to punish the Louisiana
savages who murder Italians when-
ever they feel like it, or should her-
self “take hold of the situation with
a firm hand.”
So far as “orderly” is concerned,
Haiti compares favorably with Louis-
iana; for in Louisiana a majority of
the citizens are disfranchised by
tricky evasions of the Federal Con-
stitution; in Louisiana the Federal
government cannot carry out the
provisions of her treaties with for-
eign powers.
Would the Picayune be willing for
the United States, or Italy to bom-
bard New Orleans on account of the
inability of the illiterate Louisiana
Democrats to “conduct orderly ad-
ministration of” any other affairs
besides a lynching?
GEORGIA’S HOAX.
The country has scarcely recovered
from the thrill of horror caused by
the news that Senator Jeff Davis had
been well thrashed by a high-collar-
ed Little Rock rooster, and now
comes the news that that great and
good statesman, Governor Hoax
Smith of Georgia, has been subject-
ed to great indignities by a gang of
undesirable citizens. The dispatch
reads as follows :
“Bombarded ‘with lemons and
hooted by a crowd who added to their
noises with cow bells, Gov, Hoke
Smith was prevented from speaking
here in support of his candidacy for
a second term.”
‘The incident occurred at Marietta,
a dilapidated old town a few miles
from Atlanta, which used to have
some reputation as a summer resort
for the Georgia elite. THE AP-
PEAL fails to conceive of any good
reason for this violence of the prop-
erties; for Hoax is a many-sided
man,
He cultivates the religious element
by being an elder in the Presby-
terian church and superintendent of
a Sabbath school and conciliates the
bacchanalians by being part owner of
the Piedmont Hotel bar.
‘Moreover, Hoax knows just what
should be done with the wicked
Afro-Americans, who are not Pres-
byterian elders and do not own
shares in the Piedmont bar. He has
discoursed very sapiently concerning
their case and laid down wise laws
for their management. He knows
exactly what to do with them; but
it seems that the time he wasted on
higher education could have been
more profitably employed in learn-
ing how to dodge a fusilade of lem:
ons and in outbraying an orchestra
of cowbells.
New Jersey has inaugurated meas-
ures for the suppression of anarchy
by passing the "Burpo bill”
‘The Burpo bill makes it a high
misdemeanor for any person to ad-
vocate by speech, writing, printing
or any other means the unlawful
burning or destruction of public or
private property or to advocate or
encourage assaults upon the army of
the United States, the National
Guard or the police of any State or
municipality or the killing or injur-
ing of any class or body of persons
OF of aay dndivianale
It would seem that the Burpo bill
would be as. effective against lynch-
ers as against any other anarchists.
And this is fortunate; for lynchers|
are anarchists of the worst type, and
have committed’ more murders and
destroyed more property than the
anarchists ever dreamed of. |
Prof. Hart of Harvard says:
“The two enemies of the white
woman in the south are ‘the black
brute” whom the southern press is
never tired of describing, and the
southern buzzard journalist, who
spreads her name and her dreadful
story abroad to become the seed’ of
another like crime.”
The erudite professor should have
added to his enumeration another
and most potent enemy—the white
brute recognized as a gentleman, who
devotes more of his time and money
to his dark-skinned concubine than
to his white wife, whose name is
legion. Perhaps he has forgotten
the case which occured. in New
Orleans not long sineé, in which a
dark-skinned “assistant wife” make a
city official a defaulter and fugitive
and his family paupers.
CAREFUL OF LO’S FEELINGS.
Oklahoma legislature is consider-
ing a bill to prohibit the display of
wooden Indians as cigar-store signs.
Indians have votes out in Oklahoma,
—New York Herald,
There is a great deal of sound
philosophy in the foregoing squib.
‘Oh, yes, you must be very careful
of the feelings of our sensitive In-
dian brother; for Indians have votes.
Afro-Americans have no votes down
in Jimerowdom; that's the reason
why he is excluded from the jury
box, swindled, mobbed and lynched.
‘And yet, the census returns show
that less than one half of the Afro-
Americans are illiterate, and that is
a great deal more than can be said
‘of the Southern Democrats.
Statistics collected by the Ameri-
can Journal of Education show that
the United States is one of the most
illiterate of civilized nations, the
ratio being 107 per thousand.
One person in every nine of ten
years and older is illiterate, But see
how this compares with England,
Scotland or ‘Holland, where only one
person in forty is illiterate. In
Switzerland one person in 166 can
not write, in Denmark one in 500,
in Sweden and Norway one in 1,250,
and in Germany illiteracy is virtually
unknown,
Of course the South is in the worst
condition, and Louisiana is about on
‘a level with Timbuctoo.
A very amusing incident occurred
in Little Rock, Ark, as a sequel to
the recent Democratic primaries. A
Little Rock attorney whom Jeff Da-
vis had villified in the canvass gave
the senator a severe beating with the
senator's own gold-headed cane, We
presume that the attorney intended
to give Jeff a hint that he had better
be attending to his duties in Wash-
ington instead of trying to run Ar-
Kansas. At all events the incident
was very amusing.

Narrow taces and small, dainty pat-
terns in embrofdery are now consid-
ered correct for the decoration of the
princess slip. The same design is
‘used on the bodice and the flounces
of the skirt, except that the bodico

flat, so as not to interfere with the
lines of the outer bodice. ‘The skirt
flounces, on the contrary, are always
more attractive! when there is some-
thing quite ufty in their decoration.
Many of the white slips to be worn
‘with gowns of pale colors—pink, blue,

clennes and cluny and with delicate
Uttle embrotderies in color. Vertical
insertions of valenclennes are set in
tn a row across the lower part of the
bodice, and above this are little ver-
tical embroideries of sweet peas in
delicate pink and green.
‘The skirt flares very much at the
bottom, and the lower part has two
flounces set in, one above the other,
‘the upper one ‘being cut out in deep
points around the bottom. Both of
these flounces are trimmed with ver-
tieal insertions of valeneiennes, those
‘on the lower flounce being set on at
regular intervals. ‘The insertions on
the upper flounce are set on in groups
of three to trim each point. Above
this trimming there were the delicate
sweet pea vines, as-on the bodice, all
put on to run up and down. This some
Idea would be carried out in lavender,
‘sweet peas on a gray or white silk
sllp or in mignonette on a green slip.
‘The embroidery, of course, carries out
the color suggestion of the overdress,
It is not supposed to show through
the overdress, being merely one of
those Ittle touches of perfection
which distinguish the clothes of the
very daintily dressed woman.
‘Embroideries of the same color—
white if the slip be white—are also
used: to supplement the Iaco decora-
tion. ‘These also are kept very slight
‘and modest. The idea seems to be to
secure perfection of workmanship
rather than a mass of trimming.

Scene From Uncle Tom's Cabin at the Grand Next Week.
Perhaps there has never been so lavish and adequate a production of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" as that which Mr. Kibbie will offer amusement lovers next week at the Grand, commencing with a matinee tomorrow. The scenes, which are large enough to fill the spacious stage, could not easily be improved. Those representing the Ohio river in winter, the rocky pass in which George Harris protects his family, the St. Clair institution the leave at New Orleans, the cotton barn in full bloom and the Celestial City" are all the most notable efforts, each picture being the reality as closely as the bloom which paint the stage perspective is so deep that the effect is exceptionally pleasing. The company is worthy of its environment. So many skilled actors have never before been engaged together as in this play. Frank Lee, the eminent minstrel star, offers an excellent study of "Uncle Tom," preserving the atmosphere and accept of the old slave to a remarkable degree. There will be a street parade daily.

Oh, yes, we had an election last Tuesday, but there were very few Republicans left to tell the tale: H. P. Keller, assembly; Leavitt Corning and C. P. Montgomery, aldermen; Jas. L. Johnson and F. E.

It will now remain to be seen what recognition will be given for services rendered.
The largest, as well as the most enjoyable social affair of the week, was the delightful vaudelle and May Ball given by the Profit and Pleasure Club at Hiawatha Temple last Monday evening. There were seven vaudelle numbers that entertained the large crowd for two hours and every number was si gem. The orchestra was delightful and everybody enjoyed the occasion hugely.

The house was crowded to its utmost capacity. Floral decorations were similac white and pink roses and carnations in parlor and reception rooms, '1888 placed at one end of the room.

"High Kinds Burlesques."
The Attraction at the Star Next Week
If one is looking for a perfect riot of fun, associated with genuinely clever comedy and specialty acts, good singing and meritorious dancing, there is no better place to find them when the High IKF triumphs in their musical comedy success by Dave Marion, entitled "Roseland." John Price and Phil Mills, two of the cleverest comedians in America, and a company of thirty people have been engaged to dispense the fun, the production has proven to be one of the most popular and successful years. It is a laugh producer and a side splitter from beginning to end, with never a dull line for a moment, the curtain rises to the opening scene until its finale. The story serves an excellent vehicle to introduce the characters to characteristic musical numbers of which there is an abundance. The scenery and costumes are very beautiful and elaborate in every detail. Extra! "Original Girl in Blue."
He—Yes; but he doesn't want it in one batch of biscuits.

TALK THAT SELLS MINES.
Nevada Man Gives Points on Booming Lucky Strikes.
They were in a group in the St. Francis lobby talking Rawhide prospects.
"Let's go up to Bonneau's room," suggested one of the gathering. "Too many people down here listening to everything we say."
"And you claim to be a Nevada mining man?" asked Frank Bonneau in a low voice. "Talk like this mean sales, man. We stay right here as long as there are interested listeners."
Then resuming his normal voice he laughed and continued: "Well, right after he made that lucky strike he flashed a new suit, which has a winner. He had hoisted it to Nevada without a bean. Now look what he worth. Front of a saloon one day a fool practical joker slipped up behind and lighted his celluloid collar. Jury brought in 'justifiable homicide' and he gave the joker's family a cool $50,000, which was big money for him, but nothing for him with his rock running $600 to the ton."
"Bulls" in Parliament.
Young though the parliamentary session is, it has already been enlivened by a couple of "bulls," one of the perpetrators being Lord Balfour of Burleigh. He was recently making some remarks in the house of lords, and was speaking to another peer: "The noble lord lakes head—and I very glad to hear it." About the same time, in the house of commons, W. P. Byles, the member of North Salford, complained that the Patriotic Fund Corporation were storing up very large sums of money which were given for these very widows, who were dying off long before they got their money."—Tit-Bits.
The Limit In Politics
An aspirant for office was talking to an old farmer on one of the bank corners the other day. The aspirant is a chronic officeseeker, and was heard to say in a subdued tone, "The office should seek the man." The old farmer seemed a little surprised at first, but remembered that he had heard the remark before, and said, with a wink: "Well, yes; but it shouldn't run after him more than thirty or forty years."
Easy for Him.
"Brother," said the evangelist to a man who had expressed a wish to abandon h's past and adopt a better way of living, "do you think you can walk in the straight and narrow path?" "Strisht and narrow?" smiled the new convert. "Why, parson, that will be a clinch for me. I've been a tight-roon walker for ten years."
"Bigey doesn't bother about politics any more, does he?"
"No, indeed."
"No, indeed."
"Let me see, when was it that he got the guernatorial bee in his bonnet?"
"Just before he got it in the neck."

BREAKING IN THE NEW MEN.
‘One Corporation Publishes a Text-
book for New Employes.
A lerze corporation has lately
shown its appreciation of the value of
giving new employes a thorough gen-
eral knowledge of the business by
publishing a book describing in an in-
teresting fashion all the details of the
corp ny's_ work.
I: fs a volume of ‘over 200 pages,
illustrate with fac simile cuts of va-
rious reports and other forms used.
A copy is furnished every employe
and he is expected to master not
merely the portions pertaining to his
own work, but the entire book.
Quizzes ere held at frequent inter-
vals throughout the organization and
dismissal is the penalty for ignorance
of any subject trested in the volume.
“It costs us about $2,000 to publish
this beok,” says the president of the
company, “but we consider it money
well invested and we are planning to
issue a new and uptodate edition
every year,
“When a man enters our employ he
is told to read this manual and do
nothing else until he has thoroughly
mastered it, This gives him a gen-
eral Imowledge of the business, and
if there are any points he does not
understand they are cleared up before
he begins work.”
SITTING IT OUT.
A Sharp Attack Which Brought the
Young Man to His Feet.
He was a fragile youth and didn't
aance all the dances,
“Let's slt It out,” he said to his pret-
ty pariner,
“On the stairs?” she suggested.
So they went up and sat down.
“Ant eried the fragile youth sud-
denly, and rose hastily, gasping for
bresth.
“Why, Mr. Stackpole, what's the
matter?” cried the fair young girl.
He could not answer. His face was
livid, his eyes were rolling, and his
whole frame was shaking. 4
“What kind of attack is it?” she
gasped. And at this interrogation his
voice returned to him.
“What earthly difference does that
make,” he growled, “so long as it was
one?”
‘Then, without a word of apology, he
strode manfully away.
But how was she to know that the
partiewlar description of attack was
just an ordinary tack, acrobatically
standing on its head?”
A Mind Reader
Pat had gct hurt—not much more
then a serateh, it is true, but his em-
plover had vicions of being compelled
to keep him for life, and had adopted
the wise course of sending him at
once to the hospital. After the house
surgeon had examined him carefully,
he said to the nurse:
“As subcutaneous abraison is not
observable, I do not think there is
any reason to apprehend tegumental
cicatrization of the wound.”
‘Then, turning to the patient, he
asked, quizzically:
“What do you think, Pat?”
“Sure, sir,” said Pat, "you're a
wonderful min} reader, doctor. You
took the very words out of my mouth.
‘That's just what 1 was going to say!”
Variety at Sea,
For variety at sea, once when we
had been practicing with the six-inch
guns, and were “securing” for dinner
hour, we saw a monster spouting off
our starboard beam. We begged to
take a shot at it, and the officer of the
deck, recognizing an impromptu tar-
ret, gave us leave. We fired two
shots, and the expression, “a sea of
blood,” which I had always looked
upon as an extravagance of speech,
became a reality. When we returned
from mess the ocean for a mile sur-
rounding the whale was as red—well,
as red as, blood.—From “Three Years
Behind the Guns” in April St. Nich-
‘olan.
At This Season,
Little Willle looked up from his
novel.
“Poppe,” he said, “what does a
man’s ‘better half’ mean?"
“What she says,” Mr. Enpeque an-
swereil sadly,
And with @ sigh the little man re-
sumed the verifieation of his wite's
Faster mill'nery bill, which she had
promised weuld be very large.

A Generous Bequest.
Porter Emerson Browne came Into

“No,” come one answered. “How

“twelve children.”
Mr. Browne left, too.

EYE DEFECTS AND SYMPTOMS.
Bye defects are few—sympioms many,
‘There can be but two defects in the human eye.
Theeye may be too long in whole. Then we have the
Myopic eye.
Or too short in whole—the Hyperopic eye,
Combine the two in one eye and we have Astigmatism.
Properly adjusted glasses will sorrect these defects.
Medicines or waiting, never.
Symptoms that spring from these two simple eye mal-
ormations are manifold; such as eye and headaches, Indi-
gestion, Dyspepsia, Nervous Debility, Chorea, Epilepsy and
other ailments having their origin in lack of nerve force.
