The editor being unable to secure space begs leave to publish the following, which should have appeared in last week's issue.
The Ordination of
The vestments worn by the celebrant and assisting priest on this occasion was the property of St. Paul's Seminary and were the finest in the state made of the finest fabric ornamented with pure gold weighing up to fourteen pounds. The solo rendered at the offertory by Mrs. E. O. James was indeed grand and rendered as only an artist could.
Gounod's mass rendered by the choir in latin under the direction of Mr. C. D. Jackson, was also a masterly selection and could only be rendered by a choir of music readers; to be appreciated it should be heard.
The drama, "A Clergyman's Courtship," given at St. James A. M. E. Church, Thursday June 16, was a grand success in every way. Managed and staged by such enterprising enthusiastic persons as Mrs. Bessie Lucus and C. H. Miller, assisted by the following persons who were none-the-less enterprising and enthusiastic Mesdames Ida Mills, Bessie Miller, Erma Archer, Ethel Wilson. Messrs S. E. Hall, A. V. Hall, B. Archer and F. G. D. Parker. The stage settings were good and not one of the company needed prompting throughout the entire play of three acts, thereby eliminating much of the amateurishness generally attached to amateur performances. They indeed covered themselves with glory and acted like professionals. As soon as the weather is cooler it will be repeated.
It is rumored that several weddings will take place in the near future.
Mr. and Mrs. Sylvester Davis have announced the marriage of their daughter Eugenia to Mr. William Edgar Webber, Wednesday July 6, 1910, at the residence of Mrs Jackson, 9900 Sincoe St.

Miss Bertha Williams of Charles St. left Sunday evening June 20th, for Philadelphia. She will be joined by her sister Miss Mae Williams, who has been teaching music in Virginia. They will also visit Atlantic City before returning. Her father Mr. E. J. Williams accompanied her as far as Chicago.

Rev. A. H. Hill, D. D., of Little Rock, Ark., President of Shorter College is the guest of Rev. H. S. Grave and will preach at St. James A. M. E. church, morning and evening.
The play at the Grand Opera House this week is one of southern extraction, "Cameo Kirby." Playwright New Stock Co. Mr. Bernard the stage manager will sit to say over his signature: Through Mr. C. H. Miller we were able to secure the best quickly gotten together quartet he ever listened to, the following gentlemen compose the quartet: C. D. Jackson, first tenor; A. J. White, second tenor; A. W. Haynes, first bass; S. H. Miller, second bass. What the Twin Cities can't furnish in the way of music among its Afro-Americans is yet to be seen.

NOTICEABLE HAPPENINGS
Noticeable happenings in these parts force the negroes to sit up and take notice, and daily occurrences are the open door for the entry of negroes into the business life of the Flour City. They force him to realize his position, when the white man's door closes against him, causes the opening of business and promotes racial interests. The negroes of the East, South and West are far beyond the element representing the Northwest, and it can well be said that New England shows less enterprise by negroes on account of its law protecting them by allowing them constitutional rights, also customs or blue laws formed long ago prevented segregation during its earlier days which allowed no business, a consideration which was specially identified with the negro race. This made it clear for negroes to demand privileges and be accorded the same. But while that was good form and has accomplished much, they now have a basis to work upon, and are fast waking up. They need no social equality and are filling their own coffers, and the white man is granting them business concessions. The time is fast coming when the negroes of Massachusetts will be second to none in enterprise. They have syndicates, companies, and are a power to be looked upon favorably. Such things are on foot in Minneapolis. The time has come for concerted efforts, and when the white man closes his door on the negro, then Opportunity knocks at the Negro's and oftentimes she is refused. What are you going to do? Do it now! You upend $20,000 each week in Minneapolis.

No.3
UNIVERSAL RACES CONGRESS
A congress, which promises to be one of the most influential of our time, is to be held in London in July, 1911. The list of those who have extended to it their moral support is perhaps the most imposing one of its kind. Among the supporters, who hall from no less than forty countries, are over twenty presidents of parliaments, about a hundred members of the Permanent Court of Arbitration and of the Second Hague Conference, many present and past statesmen and ambassadors, some hundred and thirty professors of international law, the leading anthropologists and sociologists, the president, treasurer, general secretary and the majority of the council of the Inter-Parliamentary Union, and other distinguished personages.
The object of the congress will be to discuss the larger racial issues in the light of modern knowledge and the modern conscience, with a view to encouraging a good understanding, friendly feelings and hearty co-operation between Occidental and Oriental peoples. Political issues of the hour will be subordinated to this comprehensive end, in the firm belief that when once mutual respect is established, difficulties of every type will be sympathetically approached and readily solved.
The origin of this congress is readily explained. The interchange of material and spiritual goods between the different races of mankind has of late years assumed such dimensions that the old attitude of distrust and aloofness is giving way to a general desire for closer acquaintanceship. Out of this interesting situation has sprung the idea of holding a congress where the representatives of the different races might meet each other face to face, and might, in friendly rivalry, further the cause of so-called white people and the so-called colored people.
Accordingly, the congress will not represent a meeting of all the races for the purpose of discussing indiscriminately everybody's concerns. It will not discuss purely European questions, such as the relations existing between or within the different European countries; nor, of course, will it discuss the attitude of Europe towards the persons. Fee for active membership (including attendance, volume of papers, and other publications) will be 21s., for passive membership (excluding attendance, but including volume of papers and other publications), 7s. 6d.
Further information may be obtained from the Hon. Organizer, Mr. G. Spiller, 63 South Hill Park, Hampstead, London; or from the American co-secretaries, Prof. W. E. DuBois, Atlanta University, and Mr. Alfred W. Martin, 995 Madison avenue, New York.-Circular, The Horizon.

Harmony Program Prevala.

Harmony was woven in the platform expressions, in the appointment of committees, and in everything else.
Tariff Issue Eclipsed.

BANK WRECKER FOUND GUILTY.

Boston, Mass. — A further stage in the government's prosecution of those responsible for the wrecking of the National City bank of Cambridge came when William J. Kellher, called by his friends "Big Bill," was declared guilty by a jury in the United States circuit court of aiding and abetting George W. Coleman, the $12 a week bookkeeper, who was sentenced a month ago for the theft of $399,000 from the bruk. Sentence was postponed.
MOSES E. CLAPP.
His address follows:
more for the promotion of the welfare and prosperity of the common people than any other political party in the country. In the world of the past at times we are impatient with the delays in accomplishment of what seems to us most desirable and necessary; while at times, even recent, there may have been difficulties in the accomplishments of the members of that party with respect to the accomplishment of certain policies in their fullest measure. In the past man ever realised fully his own ideals; no great reform can be ideally accomplished. Great ideas permeate the lives of people of great importance slowly and these great reforms will all come in time. Party Redeems Pledges. "The people of the country are ready, willing and eager to redeem its pledge to the past and can be depended upon to maintain that policy in the future. The people of the country are ready, willing and eager to follow the policies of proclaim and advancement. When they have a leader in whose judgment they have confidence and faith and who points their march toward the desired goal.
"Among the great practical issues within confront the Republican parties within the state today and with which the officials nominated by this convention will have primarily the role of the natural resources of the state. Conservation is by no means a supposed. It is an effort to return to those original principles with respect to the disposition of the public domain and acquirement of that domain by the individual citizen as opposed to its extant aggregations of corporate wealth.
"The original homestead law was a original measure. It was intended, enabling the pioneers and immigrants to occupy with homes the public domain, was not designed that this domain shall be subfurge, gather together, in vast tracts and large holdings in the hands of the few, the law was designed to preserve the use of the public domain but laxity in enforcing and conforming to the plain provisions of the law that the public domain has been accumulated and controlled by a handful of wealthy corporations to the detriment of the public domain. "Conservation means, in part, the abolishment of these evils and the return to the first and original principles, the ability of the public domain to other natural resources, such as our mineral deposits, our forests, our water power sites and waterways and the application of modern drainage systems. "The party should be committed to a just and fair reapportionment of the legislative power. "Good Roads Important. "The party should be committed to giving the public access to promote the easy intercourse of the citizens of this state and to facilitate agricultural development by means of adequate system of good and permanent roads."
"Every year thousands of people pass through our state, migrating into northwestern United States, ignorant of the great possibilities and superior advantages offered by the unoccupied broad acres of Minnesota. We have not properly prepared and trained the nation's bureau in their efforts to make known to the public our great natural been lagging behind our Western and eastern states and the Canadian provinces.
"Other states have established and are establishing agencies and disseminating contentions while we, conscious of our advantages. In this respect we have vast resources and great natural advantages, and we have opportunities for receiving our fair proportion of new settlers. We have remained inactive too long and watched our own desirable lands into other states and territories which have far less advantages.
This is the day of advertisement. Practically nothing can be sold unless it is advertised and our state should adopt this method making and selling the land it large in proportion of the immigration and be able to develop the country as it deserves.
"Minnesota has been a pioneer in advanced legislation. It is the pioneer among the states as a conservationist. We have a conservation measure that was ever passed by any state. It is now estimated that this enactment will return $4,000,000, making possible higher education for the masses by bringing within the reach of the poorest states these higher educational advantages.
**MINNESOTA** has been the pioneer in legislation regulating commerce and railroad rates, and its examples in this chapter are noteworthy. It has by great many of the other states, and even by the national congress which has adopted verbatim portions of the legislation. **MINNESOTA** has also taken advanced ground in the matter of solving the issues impaired by the regulation. By the adoption of a constitutional amendment a few years since a tax commission has been created and made available to the public to prove methods in taxation, remove existing inequalities and work out a satisfactory solution of all the questions. **The state of Minnesota** is also up-to-date in the matter of labor legislation, and the state's books and by the practical results of their application.

Gentlemen, we have assembled here today, then, for the purpose of nominating a set of men consecrated to these great labor of mankind, to the great duties, to the continuation and perpetuation of these great policies. This convention will name such a ticket. And I have no doubt that at its head, the most capable and capable young leader, who has won the confidence of the people of this state by his successful administration of our public affairs and business for nearly a year, the Honorable Adolph
When Chairman Keller concluded, O. A. Allen of Hector, nominated M. J. Dowling of Renville as temporary secretary and A. H. Vernen of Little Falls, Harry West of Sauk Rapids, and Parley Dare of Walker, as assistant secretaries. After the appointment of a committee of credentials had been dispensed with, because there were no contests and Chairman Brown had been seated as a delegate in the convention, Frank M. Eddy of Stearns, moved that a committee on resolutions be appointed by the chair. The motion carried.
The Resolutions.
Frank M. Eddy of Sauk Center, Stearns county, former congressman and newspaper man, presented the resolutions of the convention.
Sultan of Sulu Coming.
Manila, P. I. — The sulton of Sulu, who once offered his hand in marriage to Miss Alice Roosevelt, is to visit America. He has announced that the chief object of his trip abroad is to dispose of a collection of pearls valued at something like $250,000, the proceeds from which will be devoted to improving the condition of his people. He will be accompanied by fourteen prominent Moors. He already has sailed for India and will make stops at several European cities.
The Resolutions.
The county optionists had presented a list of names from which to choose their representative on the committee on resolutions. The committee consisted of 23 members, two from each congressional district and fice at large. The representation of the optionists included C. S. Jelly, W. R. Jandleson and Prof. W. F. Webster of Minneapolis, Senator Ole Canestorp of Grant county and Senator B. E. Soudberg of Kennedy.
President Taft Indorsed.
This was in accordance with the arrangement of the night before when Governor Eberhart assured the optionists they would have fair representation on the committee. The resolutions as presented by Mr. Eddy unqualifiedly endorse the administration of President W. H. Tatt.
They endorse the tariff and exemplify what has come to be known as the "Minnesota idea."
The party expressed its approval of the platform declaration on the tariff as adopted at the national convention of Chicago.
It reiterates the belief of the Republican party in the principle of protection to the extent which measures the difference in the cost of production at home and abroad, plus a reasonable profit.
Approves New Tariff.
It expresses approval of the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill so far as the pledges of the party platform have been redeemed.
This particularly expressed approval of the maximum and minimum features of the bill, which enable the president to protect this country against unjust tariff discriminations on the part of foreign countries.
It expressly approves the tariff commission and calls for further revision from time to time as the reports of
J.
ADOLPH O. EBERHART. the commission will justify. The entire Minnesota delegation at Washington is indorsed without distinction. This latter feature is the final chapter in the attempt made last summer to distinguish between the men who voted against the tariff bill and Congressman Tawney who voted for it. The state administration is commended, and a good roads plank is a feature of the platform. Conservation is made the dominant note in the platform. There are practically no state issues other than this. The success of the state conservation congress is noted and an appeal made for a continued effort along the line of a conservation program. The insurgent resolutions offered by Hugh T. Halbert, who was recently connected with the reported third party movement, were as follows:
"We the Republicans of the state of Minnesota in convention assembled do hereby reaffirm the unalterable support of the policy promulgated by Theodore Roosevelt.
"We are unqualified in favor of the conservation of our natural and state resources along the lines suggested by him during his administration.
"We are in favor of tariff revision downward and we unhesitatingly commend the action of those of our senators and congressmen who voted against the Payne-Aldrich bill, which we denounce as a repudiation of the pledges of the Republican party to the American people."
County option lost out in the convention, as was expected, yet made a stronger showing than was anticipated, and succeeded in landing the nomination of lieutenant governor in the person of S. Y. Gordon of Browns Valley.
The real spirit of the convention was exercised in connection with the candidacies of Justice C. L. Lewis and Judge Homer B. Dibell, both of Duluth, for the supreme court.
From the very first time that the Duluth lawyers put forward the name of Judge Dibell, he has had no chance of nomination. The Duluth men may have been sincere enough, but the rest of the state interpreted their action as an attempt to punish Justice Lewis for his decision in the wide open tax amendment.
They went after the Duluth men without mercy, and Judge Dibell was sacrificed.
COAL LANDS ARE WITHDRAWN.
Washington, D. C. — The United States geological survey has reported during the month of May on 1,697,361 acres of coal land withdrawals, of which 329,334 acres were classified as non-coal lands. The coal lands, valued by forty acres units, according to the estimated tonnage, were reported as worth $58,508,120. Under the minimum price fixed by law for coal lands which obtained until a few years ago, these lands would have been valued at only $13,320,390.
HUSBAND ADMITS KILLING WIFE,
WHOSE BODY WAS FOUND IN
TRUNK
MURDER FOLLOWED A QUARREL
American Arrested as He Steps Off Ocean Liner.—Lake Como, Italy,
New York, N. Y.—Porter Charlton, husband of Mrs. Mary Scott Castle Charlton, whose body was found stuffed in a trunk which was taken from Lake Como, Italy, recently, was arrested as he stepped from the steamship Princess Irene in Hoboken.
Charlton at first denied his identity, but after being given the "third degree" he admitted that he was the husband of Mrs. Charlton.
The police later announced that a statement signed by Charlton was a confession that he had slain his wife.
Charlton said, in his confession, that he and his wife had been having supper together at the villa on Lake Como and that they had engaged in a violent quarrel.
Charlton said his wife, who was one of the best women in the world, but had an ungovernable temper, called him some vile names and that finally, when he could not stand her abuse any longer, he attacked her with a wooden mallet.
The young man said that he struck her over the head three times, knocking her unconscious and killing her, so far as he knew.
Charlton told the police that he then put the body of his wife in a trunk and carried it down to the lake where he threw the trunk into the water.
MINNEAPOLIS COMBINE CALLED
Hottest Day of the Year Is Chosen To
Minneapolis.—Hope for some relief during hot weather, if not in holding the mercury below the century mark, at least supplying antidotes against sweltering temperature, were heralded when the grand jury took up the consideration of the ice price problem in Minneapolis.
Twenty-three men, doomed by the stern edicts of the constitution to transact their business behind closed doors, sought relief from the excessive heat by peeling off their coats and opening wide the windows of the grand jury room. In the office of the county attorney, 20 representatives of ice companies in Minneapolis awaited the call to tell what they knew about the alleged combine among certain ice concerns of the city to float the price of their wares.
"We are going to tell all we know about this business," said one ice dealer, "and when we get through the 'Big Three' may laugh differently than they have during the last couple of months."
Among the representatives of the smaller firms sentiment was very strong against the big companies for what is considered their studied attempt to put the smaller establishments out of business and to create a monopoly in the ice business in Minneapolis.
Price Difference Probed.
"The question the grand jury will have to consider," said one of the ice men, who had been subpoenaed by the county attorney, "is to find out why ice is sold for $2 north of Plymouth avenue, where double weight is given, while $3 is charged south of Plymouth avenue."
Among the witnesses summoned to give evidence were C. O. Lampe, former president of the City Ice Company; John C. Miller, of the Twin Lakes Ice Company; Henry J. Minor, of the Kenwood Ice Company; Gus Haft, of the American Ice Company; F. W. Palmer, of the Shoreham Ice Company; Robert Jaeger, of the First Ward Ice Company; E. S. Dowling, of the Southeast Ice Company; J. L. Kichlil, of the Independent Ice Company, and Fred Fagan, of the Mutual Ice Company.
Lester B. Elwood, real estate man, and J. S. Nolan, at present in the horse business, but formerly with the Crystal Ice Company, also were present to give testimony.

SALMON INDUSTRY
ON PACIFIC
EW people know that the can of salmon served on their tables has reached them by being shipped around Cape Horn in-
stead of being sent by rail to Chicago. Not all Pacific coast salmon is sent in this way, but enough is to make this method of long distance shipment noticeable and to set one wondering about freight rates. It is said that last year the large packing establishments on the Columbia river sent their cans east by tramp and regular steamers, around the Horn to Atlantic ports, where the cans were sent by rail into the interior. One reason for shipping by water instead of rail is that the vans can be loaded directly on to the boats in Alaska and on the Columbia, and not taken off until they reach the Atlantic seaboard, whereas if they are sent by rail they must be stored in Seattle or some other large point and then reloaded on to the cars. So great has been the effect of this water shipment that it has reduced the freight rates on salmon from the Pacific to eastern points.
No one can realize the extent of the salmon industry and the figure it cuts in trade, unless he has visited the salmon canneries on the Columbia, Puget sound and in Alaska. On the Columbia the salmon is taken up in places with wheels, but at the mouth the Finns are adept at collecting them in nets. In Alaska nets are extensively used and it is a common thing to get as many as 12,000 in a seine. The seines are usually set at the mouth of a river, for the fish always seek fresh water in which to spawn. A net ten feet or so wide, and many thousand feet long, is loaded on a tug, which pays out the net so that it protects a large area. Then one end of the seine is made fast, while the other end is attached to a windlass and drawn slowly in to shore. When the seine fills it is made smaller and smaller by the windlass and men in boats gather up the fish with baskets. At length the net is drawn ashore and the remainder of the fish are collected. The salmon are taken in immense quantities to the canneries, where the fish are placed upon the floor. As many as 75,000 have been taken at one time, so there is always danger of much waste. The process of canning is rapid, and consists in cleaning, cutting, putting in cans and boiling. Then it is labeled, crated and ready for shipment. Much of the work is done by Chinese and Indians. Many well-equipped canneries make their own cans and get the crates ready to ship in bond to foreign ports.
The red salmon is generally considered the best and it is found abundantly in the cold waters of the north. Wherever there are streams running inland on the northwest coast on the Pacific there may be salmon. The salmon have been known to jump over huge barriers to reach fresh water, and they often choke the mouth of a stream. They are valueless for food after they have spawned, and seldom find their way back to salt water, usually dying where they lay their eggs. Because they come in such vast quantities it is a small trick to catch them, and such waste goes on that the government is trying in some manner to stop it.
Not all salmon is canned. Japan and China take much salted salmon, other kinds are dried. The Indians are fond of dried salmon and open the fish, bone it and slash the flesh before hanging it up in the sun to dry. After it is exposed in this way for a week it is smoked and in the winter time dipped in oil and fried. But these are crude methods of preparing salmon compared with the canning process. So expeditious are salmon canners that they can over 60 cans a minute. All the cans are subjected to intense heat and if tapping discloses that one is not air tight it is immediately rejected.
Salmon fishing and canning is summer business. June, July and August are the months when the salmon rush for fresh water streams from their home in the ocean. It is necessary to work fast to accomplish in that short time what every salmon factory owner desires—namely, to make as much money he can and at the same time comply with government regulations. There is usually an overseer at the factories and the workers get often $300, shelter and food, for the three months they are employed. It is noticeable that salmon catching fluctuates, some seasons being better than others, but so far there has been no adequate solution of the reason. In fact, the salmon is a sort of a mystery. The fish goes out to salt water shortly after it is born and returns to fresh water to spawn. This is
years after. Where it has been in the meanwhile no one seems to know. Most people want the red varieties and these are found in the northern waters. But nearly all kinds of salmon are valuable as food. It is estimated that salmon is nearly half again cheaper than beef and contains as much nourishment. To get the full taste of the delicious salmon one should eat it on the coast where it is caught. Sockeye salmon is considered a great delicacy on Puget sound and served broiled in the best restaurants. In Alaska when they wish to honor a guest they serve salmon bellies. This part of the fish is the richest and sweetest, but as the rest of the fish is usually thrown away the bellies are a wasteful and expensive luxury. The Indians eat the salmon eggs in great quantities. This is distasteful to the whites, who never touch them.
There is a tremendous waste of this fish in the Pacific waters. Inspectors sall up and down the ocean for the few months in summer when the canneries are open, and they are supposed to keep a lookout for needless carelessness and waste. The government has also certain laws about the amount that can be secured, but these are frequently disobeyed. The white man will fish anywhere and any time, and the Indians are falling into his way. Before his coming each tribe of redmen had their fishing ground and no Indian would fish in any waters that did not belong to him. Some of the largest canning factories in Alaska have started hatcheries, but there are few of these, and as it is estimated that not one in ten eggs matures under natural conditions, it is apparent that even if the Pacific seems to be stocked with these fish, wastefulness may make them very scarce.

ALL HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY
When a Man Fails in Business Comments Are Many and Usually Ill-Natured.
Mr. Binney failed in business.
One of his neighbors said: "At last?"
Another neighbor said: "I thought they were going it pretty strong for a man of his income. Still, I didn't like to say anything at the time."
A third neighbor said: "Oh, I'm so sorry. My dear, we must go over and give Mrs. Binney our deepest sympathy. I'm dying to see how she is taking it."
One brother-in-law said: "If he had lent me that $500 I asked him for last year he'd have been that much ahead, anyway. Much good it did him to keep it. Too bad, though, of course."
Another brother-in-law said: "Sly old boy, Binney. He's got it sailed away somewhere, all right. Don't you worry."
His butcher said: "Now, a poor man like me has to pay his debts as he goes along. All the same, I'm not worrying about the $20 he owes me, but I bet you if I owed anybody $20 they'd make my life a misery till they got it."
His wife's best friend (to Mrs. Binney): "Now, my dear, you mustn't mind any of the awful things you hear. At a time like this people will talk."
A friend: "A man must either have exceptional capital or exceptional ability to succeed in business nowadays. Poor Binney, as it happens, has neither."
A second friend: "How much will he be able to pay? Twenty-five cents on the dollar? How did there come to be so much? Did Binney overlook it?"
A third friend: "Ninety-five per cent. of business enterprises are unprofitable. There's nothing like a steady, well-paying position."
A knowing acquaintance: "Wise old Binney!"
His daughters: "We must hold our heads up higher than ever or people will say that we are ashamed."
His wife: "He'll be home more now, and that is everything."
Binney: "Whew! Thank heaven it's over. Now I've got to hustle and get a job."
The Record.
"What's the highest price a word you have ever received?" asked the reporter. The celebrated author reflected a moment, then replied: "One thousand dollars. I once wrote the two words: 'Two thousand,' on a check, and a bank paid me at the rate named."
TWIN CITY STAR.
When Fate Relented
Copyright, 1920, by Associated Literary Press
"Oh, it's a sweet little room," said Miss Stiles ironically.
Her gaze roamed pensively over the little hall room she dweilt in, from the plump divan cushions to the book shelf above her cretonne-concealed washstand. A trunk bumped on the landing outside her door and then proceeded with a series of smaller bumps up the stairs and landed with a final crash overhead.
"Some one new." Faint hope flickered up, to die instantly. "But of course no one worth while would come here to live," she mumbled scornfully. Bitter distaste of her surroundings, of her daily grind, of her colorless days arose within her and jogged her momentarily out of the rut of dogged cheerfulness and acceptance of environment that she had forced herself into.
"I hate 'em," thumping her head into the pillows viciously. "I hate everybody." Rising, she faced herself accusingly in the wavy-surfaced mirror. "I hate myself, too. I'm even beginning to crook my little fingers like them—they'll be calling me genteel next. Ugh, I'd rather be bad—downright horrid—than genteel, with a cotton wool brain and a sawdust heart." A soft wind stirred the ruffled curtain and whisked her hair, and, turning, she thrust her head out into the sunshine.
"Pooh, Sally girl, but you've got the blues," she informed herself, sniffing the crisps air eagerly.
With the stirring of spring sap comes an eagerness in the blood mayap, but it's the fall for the recklessness and sest of adventure, with its insistent warning whisper of departing days, its urge to make haste, that opens one's eyes to fleeting youth, its fanning breath charged with the last faint scents of summer sweetness. And it moved unwontedly in Sarah Styles's heart as she sniffed the keen air and softened the repression of her lips.
"Gird up your loins and put on your tan pumps, Sarah, and fare thee
HE LOOKS-PE-
INTELLORENT-
AND NICE-
forth," she murnared, "and perhaps adventure will hit you on the shoulders, you poor, lonesome thing, and introduce you to an affinity. Any way, the fall air is glorious."
From the woods came the tingling scent of autumn leaves and sun-warmed mosses and cool-shaded depths. A woodpecker accentuated the silence in sharply tapped measures and a squirrel darted across the sun-flecked road.
Miss Stiles kicked her heels against the fence she was perched on and in uncontrollable abandon threw back her head, pursed her lips and poured forth a lilting, whistling refrain of her long ago school days.
Faintly floating from the distance another whistle chimed in, and she paused, the edges of her soul shell drawing together instinctively, but a smile lingered on her lips. Plaintiff rising and falling, the notes came nearer. Softly the girl crept to the fringe of bushes over hanging the road and watched the whistle swinging along, his head tilted back, his hands buried in his pockets.
"I wonder," she whispered nervously, "if I dare—um. He looks—er-intelligent and nice. I believe I will."
Her sweet, shrill whistle joined his: breathlessly she peered out, when suddenly the earth crumbled beneath her feet and laughing, hair-blown, clutching the willow saplings in her path, she descended into the very arms of the approaching whistler.
While she put straight her hat and tucked in stray hairpins he picked up the scattered crimson leaf clusters and presented them to her.
"Did you learn 'The Farmer Boy' in a little red school house, too!" he wondered, and at the honest wistfulness in his voice the last remnant of Sally's caution melted.
"Foolish, reckless, horrid." The world's thousand voices crooned it warningly in her ear, but she smiled back into the boyish eyes.
"It was a gray stone school house with a boys' yard and a girls' yard, and a pump in front where we all waited our turn for the tin diaper."
"But there was a boy who cleaned
your slate and left pink, mint hearts on your desk"
"Engraved I love you," she assented. "And was there a girl you made cart wheels in front of all the way home—all whirling hands and legs?"
"Gee, I wished you'd gone to my school!" His eyes were shining delightedly, and Miss Stiles sobered suddenly.
"But we're grown-ups now," she sighed. "Only sometimes we forget."
"Wouldn't it be great to slide back to those kid days, when everything was what it seemed, when we cried when we were hurt and laughed when we were glad, and believed in every body we knew and everything we were told?" he asked.
"Now I smile when I'm hurt and cry when I'm glad," she said.
"Well?" he challenged, his hands still thrust deep in his pocket and his eyes dancing eagerly. "You don't look like a girl who would take a dare."
"I'm no 'fraid-cat,' she boasted.
"I know where there's a birch." The laugh in her eyes flickered anxiously.
"Oh-o!"
Her little squeal of delight was genuine. "And we might find some whiteregreens. Tough, old ones, you know, with red berries. Oh, it's fine to be a kid."
"Yuh betchyu. 'Tain't no fair to talk like grown-ups, though," he protested.
To think there was a man like this in that grubbing city beyond! Her eyes were as childish and blue as the autumn sky as she protested.
"I'll beat you to that sumac, there, little boy," pointing out outstretched finger. "One, two, three, ready—go."
With that mad scamper, Sarah Stiles began an afternoon of unalloyed, foolish fun that never flagged until she was homeward bound, loaded with the gorgeous foliage of the autumn woods. They paused at a bend in the road, where cottages below were glimpsed through the leaves and a sky of molten gold poured itself into a glittering river. The laughter curves fell away from Miss Stiles's lips in a tired, satisfied sigh.
"But it must be good-by," she was insisting. "Miracles cannot bear repetition. It's a rainbow afternoon for memory—let's not touch it with the stupid finger of reality and shatter it, boy. Besides, if fate is eager and willing."
"You're a silly, little girl," said the man softly. "You're cruel, too. Haven't we grown up together?"
"Very improperly—in one afternoon," she pointed out. "But, don't you understand? I can't be the little girl any more. Any way, I'm afraid, I know—it wouldn't last."
"I can't lure you any more," he said ruefully. "But I am sorry. Here." he drew out a card and rapidly wrote a line upon it. "At least, you'll take this. And if you relent—I'll be waiting."
Running lightly, she started down the road. Then she looked back and while he watched, with a wistfully regretful smile, she tossed the card into the wayside bushes.
She had paused a scant moment in the boarding house hall to survey her tumbled hair when through the curtained door she saw him coming, tumbling a bunch of keys in his hand. With a smothered cry, she fled up to her own room and waited, peering breathlessly through a tiny crack.
It was the same gray figure, with hands deep in his pockets—the very whistling man into whose arms she had almost fallen two hours before. His heavy tread mounted slowly and sounded in the room overhead, where the crash of a trunk had driven her to despair that same day. She buried her head in the cushions, laughing hysterically. Then arising, she surveyed her radiant face in the tiny mirror.
"What a dear, sweet, lovely old thing fale is," she murmured.
The Artist's Compensation.
Save in a few business concerns, great concerns, Harrod's, the army and navy stores and the like, what a strange welter is in our whole system of payment for work—more especially in the higher branches of work! Art and literary work are terrible examples of this confusion and want of science, write a pessimist in the London Saturday Review. The payments to many of the best workers in those barren fields are so bad that a man is quite sanguine if he sees not at the end of his career the madhouse or the pauper's grave.
If he paint without genius, a painter may, by attracting an ignorant public, make himself secure. If he write without individuality or real force, the writer may likewise make himself secure by driving hard bargains with those who buy and sell his wares. But for the most part good work in these branches is the work of sensitive men, who are still children in money matters and who shrink from bargaining. Politics and public life and business makes a much better game than art or letters.
Creep into thy narrow bed,
Creep and let no more be said.
Vain thy onset! All stand fast.
Thou thyself must break at last.
Let the long contention cease!
Geese are swans and swans are geese.
Let them have it how they will!
Thou art tired; best be still.
They outtalked thee, hiss'd thee, tore
thee?
Better men fared thus before thee;
Fired their ringing shot and pass'd,
Holly charged—and sank at last.
Charge once more, then, and be dumb!
Let the victors, when they come,
When the forts of folly fall,
Find thy body by the wall!
WOMAN'S REALM
TO DECORATE THE LAMPSHADE TO BEAUTIFY THE BEDROOM
ARE LABOR SAVERS
KEEP ON HAND A SUPPLY OF JAPANESE NAPKINS.
Young girls who are up to date in their ideas should not overlook the advisability of keeping on hand a supply of Japanese napkins, for their uses as labor savers are many, and also as preservers of the family health.
During the summer months young girls especially are great instigators of picnics. Then the pile of Japanese napkins should be quickly sought for cleanly and dainty bits of paper in which to wrap up sandwiches, cakes, pie and all the good things that help to make a picnic jolly. When they have performed their service they can be thrown away, not being sufficiently valuable to carry home and to burden the family wash tub.
Not only at picnics, but at veranda tea sprees after tennis and at informal luncheons at home should Japanese napkins be employed instead of fine linen. The modern young girl has begun to feel keenly that it is a necessity to adopt every possible means to save labor, and to this end she uses as freely as she can the little napkins from the land of the rising sun.
The most pronounced present use of these articles is in case of illness, especially those that can be transmitted from one member of the family to another. Pneumonia, tonsilitis, tuberculosis and even the ordinary cold are now looked on as evils from which girls as well as all other sane mortals should protect themselves by every known device.
To use the handkerchiefs belonging to the regular wardrobe during the time of a severe cold and then put them in with the wash on Monday is to expose the family, and particularly the laudress, to the same discomforting malady. In serious cases of illness, pneumonia among them, it is a truly lamentable fact that handkerchiefs, napkins and towels are often used for the relief of the invalid which afterward are cleaned in the laundry.
The use of the Japanese napkins, or handkerchiefs, as they may then be called, does away with this too frequent mode of spreading contagion. They serve the invalid as well as linen, and when they are no longer required they should be burned.
The very smooth sorts are chosen for use in sickness, while those of crinkled, crepelike surfaces are preferred when attractiveness alone is desired. At most they cost about fifty cents a thousand.
By the Use of Water Colors Very Pretty Effects May Be Attained Even by the Amateur.
Lampshade decoration is not necessarily reserved for the artist; it may be accomplished by the merest dabber in water colors.
Given a plain, well-covered shade and some conventional design to fit it (or one that can be made to fit), a pencil and some of the transfer paper that comes will soon convey the design to the shade.
An outline is enough, because an ordinary sense of color and knowledge of flowers will help in the painting process.
Tall iris stalks and blooms, cattails with their leaves or the conventional Tudor rose shaped for each section of the shade will, any one, prove effective in water color and probably bring the shade into harmony with the room.

This smart style would look exceedingly well carried out in lichen green linen. The skirt is quite narrow round the foot, and is trimmed at each side by a straight panel, which is braided at the lower part.
The coat has a tight-fitting back and semi-fitting front, which fastens on the left shoulder and downwards in a
slant to the right side; the lower part of left side is also cut in a slant; braided material fills up the space between; braided buttons trim the edges, while the sleeves and top of coat are trimmed to match.
Hat of crinoline, trimmed with figured tulle.
Maerials required: Seven yards linen 44 inches wide, 14 buttons, one dozen yards braid.
New in Parasols.
This summer we are to use the little Chantilly lace marquise parasols, the doll-like affairs with which our pretty ancestresses used to screen their faces.
Good Taste and Careful Selection Can Be Made to Supplement Thin Pocketbook.
With $10 and time to look through the shops the average woman can furnish a bedroom with finishings so it will be attractive. A prospective purchaser will discover that green striped seersucker for hangings, bedspreads, etc., is smart looking and inexpensive. Of such material I have in mind a piece with fine stripe. The color is pale, the green line intersected by one of tan. The fact that this washes is a point in favor, and that no ironing is required is another virtue at a season when laundresses are sometimes hard to find. Moreover, this fabric does not crumple, and the many times it is placed on and removed from a bed will not muss it. Made from this goods one bed cover I saw recently had sides and ends hanging over. Put around this, so it lay on the edge of the mattress, was a nine-inch band of linen, the same shade as the green in the seersucker. This was repeated in the bolster, and on the table and bureau covers, as well as on the drapery curtains which hung straight to the sill. The latter were run on small brass rods which were concealed by the hems. Such a set for a room is not difficult to make, nor does it take long if a sewing machine is used.
For the room of a young girl nothing is more charming than white muslin treated in similar fashion with bands of flowered muslin. Any of these wash, look cool and are easily kept fresh.
Unbleached cotton makes satisfactory curtains and covers, although I am aware it may not sound as if it would.
To make a desirable effect the muslin must be used in a room which has a positive color on the wall—that is, red, blue, green or yellow must be sharply in evidence. Let the curtains in such room hang to the sill, having the edges trimmed with small ball fringe. The bed cover needs the same finish, as does any other piece.
This is lovely, and, of course, will wear for years—Helen Howe, in Washington Star.

it is advantageous to me. | am fair,
