idea. An elegant banner is presented
in each school to the room having the

the banner throughout the next month

The Prime fife.

|: People call the age of forty .sthe
prime of life.'' Who invented that
knocking phrase? Some subacid cynic,
doubtless. Because it is not the prime
of life, by any means. At forty your
hair at the temples is whitening; at
forty your Figure" is broadening; at
forty you begin to be called "a harm
less old fellow by your pretty nieces
and their friends. A most disgusting
time of life! When with dignified steps
you march toward your yawning grave
at seventy-fve, you are at least an OBJ
ject of respect and reverence-if you
have money. Your white locks and
your snowy beard crown, you with the
majesty of old. But to be forty! YOU
are neither young or old. Your hair
is pepper and salt color. Your speech
has become, inspite of yourself, set in
stilted sentences You perhaps would
flirt. but in the attempt you meet with
dire disaster. This enterprise is met
with the giggles Of girlhood, and you
are driven gignominiously from the
scene by some ,t'masher'' of twenty
summers. The real prime of life is
when your muscles are like twisted
cords Of Bessemer steel (you don care
much about girls at that .time) and
your lungs like the bellows that blow
the smelling furnace; when you have
only to say one pretty thing, show your
white teeth and twist up the ends Of
your youthful mustache,. and any pref
tygirl you want just signs once and
ttmbles into your arms. This is the
prime of life. It is all over when you
begin to call for your dinner and.
grumble at the breakfast buttered
toast. When you have become a Judge
Of wine it is indeed time to leave the
arena and to accept the WORKOUT glad
iator's gift Of the OGDEN sword. Fan

A farmers Clever Device for Stopping
b Trains In Front of His Farm.
Train Talk" in the Chicago Herald.
1--WE made a singular discovery the
other day." remarked an official of q
road running into Chicago. "About
three miles beyond a certain station on
our line there is a farmhouse by the
side ofthe track. Just beyond the
farmhouse is q little creek over which
there is a small bridge. About four
years ago some repairs were made to
that little bridge, and, of course, the
bridge-gang had put up a sign-board,
Run Slow on either side during the
day or SC the bridge was weakened.
When they had finished their work
they went off and forgot the signs.
The fact is, the boards had disappeared,
and they didn't take the trouble to hunt
them up.
Some weeks afterward, no one knows
just when, those signs reappeared in
their former places. Nobody knew
who put them there, or what for. No
body cared. If the section men noticed
them at all they thought the bridge
men had done it. It was none of the
engineers business why they were there
it was their duty to observe regula-
tions, which require them to slow down
at such signs. Observe regulations
they did. For about four years not a
train had passed over that little bridge
without slowing almost to a standstill.
The ~culvert, for that's all it is, has been
as safe as any part of the roadbed,
and yet stopping and starting trains
there has cost this company thousands
of dollars. You know, it costs money
to stop and start trains. You are Won
dering how it all comes about, of course.
Well, that farmer stole those boards
and put them up again at his leisure.
For four years he has been gong into
the town or coming from it on our trains,
getting on OF off right at his own door.
1t was q slick scheme, and how hemust
have laughed at us and enjoyed it all
the while. But his game is up now,
and the engineers are having their re-
venge by keeping up an internal screech-
ing of their Whistles at all hours of the
day and night whenever they pass that
farmhouse"

TERRITORIAL NEWS NOTES.
North Dakota insane Asylum.

Jamestown Special: The first series Of
buildings to constitute the North Dakota In.
sane asylum is finished. The trustees, &C.
companied by Maj. Willett OF Chicago, the
w~ell-known architect, made an Official in
spection Of the building, and, finding the
work entirely satisfactory, received it from
the hands. of the contractor. The architect
commends highly the manner in which Mr..
Whittemore (of Morris, Minn.) has carried
out the provisions of his contract; and, in
decd, the solid structure, which crowns one
OF. the highest bluffs overlooking the town,
about a mile southeast of the courthouse, is a
credit to jamestown and our great territory.

Necessary that it remain vacant until the legis-
lature votes an appropriation to pay running
expenses. One OF. the conditions Of the bill To-
eating the asylum at jamestown was that the
plans and specifications should be submitted
BY the trustees 70 the goyernorfo for his approval
and that the contract should be lei
within twenty days thereafter. At. the
time of the February meeting for the
consideration of the various proposed plans
and. specifications two of the three non-resi.

absent from the territory, having about CON

made, it is sufficient to say now that the land

At a recent address delivered by ex-
Governor Rice, of Massachusetts, at the
[ institute Fair at Boston, speaking Of
Mexico, he said: "Mexico needs con-
venient and modern hotels upon the
system now so popular in the United
States. 1t will not be long ere Ameri-
can capital will be invested in that di-
r%ection, and yielding a flattering income.
There is also needed machinery for pre-
pairing the fbres of Mexico for the man
ufacture of carpets, rope, mating and
also paper. Thousands upon Thou
sands of tons of fibre annually go to
waste in that country, which could be
used here and in Europe for the manu-
facture of paper. 1t is so abundant
and cheap that r many years shall
pass this great industry will be one of
the most important and furnish a large
part of the material for the entire
world"

A CITY OF PRETTY GIRLS.

49, Wy ~ a&AO 030 AA3 SVAA.
tribute to the Beauty ofQuebeo Women.
"There are no homely girls in Que
pec," q native-born Canadian said to a
visitor to the ancient citadel city of
Canada. II have often stood at a win
dow and watched for one in the throng
passing on the sidewalks, but I have
eve yet seen a Quebec girl who could
be described as ugly. I don't claim
that they are all absolutely beautiful;
but there is something in the clear, in
MIGRATING air. and perhaps in the soil
and surroundings of tins lofty and rocky
city, that gives them sparkling eyes,
brilliant compilations and elasticity of
step. Montreal is full of pretty women,
but Quebec can beat her in that respect.
Have you noticedhow easily our Quebec
girls climb the steep city streets? When
they are ascending q sidewalk that
slopes upward ct an apparent angle of
thirty degrees. they don't seem to mind
it.: They don't lag, they don't get out
If breath, they don't stagger from one
side of the walk to the other. They
just go up as lightly and gracefully as
any lady a walk across a parlor
floor. You can't do it and keep
pace with them, unless you've been
brought up here. They'd tire you out
before you got half way from Break
neck Steps to Dufferin Terrace. Tie
exercise they get is partly the secret of
their good looks.
"Then there's another thing that
helps. THERE out of doors half the
time. On a pleasant evening the ter
race, that bro: d plank promenade
which stretches for a quarter of a mile
along the top of the precipice under the
brow of Cape Diamond, is crowded
with them, strolling in pairs o. groups,
chatting, laughing, and perhaps firt-
ing a little. You don't mind that, do
you? No. Well, look what pleasure
ground it is. Two hundred feet above
the waters of the St. Lawrence, and
facing n of the very finest views in
the world, as every body admits, which
extends from Point Levi down the river
to Cape T%ourment, and from the gorge
OF Montmorenci far back among the
Lourentian Mountains. You can't
blame us Quebeckers for being proud
oft. And there's where the Quebec
girls breathe the pure air that puts
roses in their cheeks and the snap into
their eyes. Yes, sir, steep streets and
plenty of fresh air, and, perhaps, the
subtle influence of q world famous
landscape, form the chief secret of the
beauty of u girls.
