ST. NICHOLAS for October is very in
teresting number, interesting even to
those who have long since ceased to be
children. The frontispiece, "Friends or
Foes" is really beautiful thing. Frank
r. Stockston has very interesting story
entitled "The Griffin and the Minor
Canon;" Arlo Bates "Those Clever
Greeks" is a very interesting piece, and
the illustrations will give the young folks
a very good idea OF Greek architecture.
The whole number will be found in
teresting, and its contents will be
eagerly devoured by the children.

SUGGESTIVE ANECDOTES.
After Bishop Cranmer, to save his life, had
signed an oath Recanting his Religious
Faith, he was made so Miserable by his own
act of Cowardice that he begged for Death.
And when he was to be Burned at the Stake
for resuming his Forbidden Belief, he first
thrust the Hand with which he had Signed
the Recantation, into the Flames, and, as 1t
was being Consumed, he cried "Untcorthy
Right Hdndr'
When Professionalism was Heresy in Eng
land, n Man who had assumed to be Lead
er in the Reformation, being alarmed Mt the
Dangers menacing him, Abiured his Faith,
and Found Fdror VIII the Popular Party.
Dressed in his Purpl and Fine Linen, he
who was struggling against Poverty and
Persecution. The Recanter said: "That's
an Old and Shabby Coat you wear "Yes,"
replied the Hereto, "but il has Nerer been
Turned"
On the right hand of this was the pic
ture of a man, generally thought to mean
Bishop John Sharp, although a most
beastly caricature. Above it wns this !:
Sentenced
to pay a Fine of $4,000
and give Promise.
Below it was this:
81 am at Liberty.
Don't / Look Happy"
On the face is depicted all the misery
that remorse can paint, and the whole
countenance is sour and moody.
On the right hand of the anecdotes"
was the picture of man generally sup
posed to be Francis A. Brown, Of Ogden.
Over it was this:
Sentenced to pay Fine
of $4,000 and to
Suffer Six Months of
imprisonment.
Under the picture was this:
81 am in Prison,
Yet / am Free!'
The face is meant to indicate absolute
Joy, joy even to hilariousness.
This is the new method of intimidatine
all who think of obeying the Edmunds
law, but what its effect will be it is hard
to say. A man who would be intimidated
by such means ought to be in prison.

You might be lonely too;
And so took my card, case

You smile so at the sun,
And when the winds go r0mping past,
You bow to every one.
How you should ever know them all,
I'm sure can not tell;
But when leone again, hope
You'll know me just as well.

You are so bright and lfne:
You never have a rumpled frock,
Or tangled hair like nilne.

When we are all away,
And dresses you in green and gold
Fresh for another Gay.
How tall you are, dear Golden-Rod!
You're taller 'mcst than I;

Although try and try.
Oh, here's mamma, dear Golden-Rod9

And she shall say which one of US

For when wee Margie turned around,
She bent down all she could,
Until the fluffy yellow heads
Upon level came,
And MarGies mother, smiling, said:
Your heights are just the Same!"

Monte Christie.

Tourists used to go from St. Germa n
to see Monte Christie the architectural
folly of old Dumas, which he built at a
cost of 100000 francs. and sold to get
rid of an urgent creditor for 10000
francs. 1t was an asylum in his time
for all the masteriess dogs in the neigh
borhood, and the grounds were oFen
to anybody who felt tempted to use
them as promenade. The inhabitants
of his menagerin. with whom he was
on communicable terms, were almost
human in the II intelligence. Jugartha,

PROSPERITY.

The unparalleled yield and splendid
grade of grain in the Devils Lake coun-
try the past season has made money
plenty and trade good, and consequent
ly the entire region is wearing a broad
smile. The best evidence of the exis-
tence of good times" is to be found in
the record the farmers have made at
Dur banks. Cashier Corsett Of the Bank
Of Devils Lake informs US that payments
are being made with unprecedented reg
ularity and %promptness. Many of the
notes held by that institution for cancel
lation are being paid before maturity,
showing that the farmers are not only
honest but full.handed. MI. Corset
states, as an instance, that out Of lS0
notes sent the bank for collection by a
large Chicago firm, only four remained
unpaid on the LIST day of December.
Other moneyed institutions of the city
make similar reports.

The Manitoba Extension.

Pat Kelly, agent of the Manitoba road
at Devils Lake, came up Wednesday
night in the interest of his road. Mr..
Kelly reported himself as highly pleased
with what he had seen of the mountain
country, as well as greatly surprised at
the evidences Of rapid development and
substantial progress visible on every
hand. Questioned upon the probable
extension Of the Manitoba road next sea
son, MIR. Kelly said that of course the
company didn't tell their agents all their
plans, and consequently he could not
speak authoritatively. The officers of the
road understood the necessity of an ex
tension to the mountain perfectly, said
MI. Kelly, but the only thing that speake
intelligihly to the directorate is u state
ment Of receipts and expenditures. II
the ninety miles of road between Grand
Forks and Devils Lake do not paw,
the directors could ever he induced to
believe it good policy to extend the road
ninety miles further to the mountains.
For the first time in Its history the Dew
lis Lake branch ls paying this fall.
When the directors are shown that this
is 80. they may-and probably will
order an extension TO the mountain next
year. Such are the views Of Mr.. Kelly,
and are such rs an intelligent business
man might naturally arrive 1T.
