-. q. c. McGree's Prairie. Iowa,
asks: "Do you know Of any place where
young man can get n good livingf'
q That depends on what yoa call good
living 5. q. G.. IL your stomach would
not revolt at plain fare, such as poor peO-
pie use, come up and stop at our house
awhile. We don't live high, but we aim
20 exc out an existence, as IL were. Come
and abide with US, 5. Q. g. Here Is where
the prince OF Wales comes when he gets
weary OF being heir apparently 10 the
throne Here Is where Bert comes when
he h, stood long time, first on one leg
and then on the other, waiting for his
mother 20 eyacuate said throne. He bids
dull care begone, and clothing himself in
some OF my own gaudy hnery he threads
small Limerick hook through the vitals
OF long wasted worm, as we lie us TO
the bosky dell whore the pl8sh OF the
pleasaut-voiced brook replies to tho turtle
doves moan. There, where the pale green
plush OF tho moss on the big Hat rocks
deadens the football of Wales and me-
where the tip Of the long willow bough
monkeys with the glddy stream forever,
where neither powers nor municipalities,
hOA buAhBS pIcSShI vi NuluBS 10 COnC, can
embltter us, we sit there, young Regina
and me, and we live more happy years In
twenty minutes than n man generally
lives all his whole life socked up against
hard throne with the eaglo eye of a
warning constituency on him.
It's good place TO come, $. Q. G.. Quiet
but restfu., full Of balm for the wounded
spirit and close up TO natures great
North American heart. That's the idea
Perhaps / do not accurately size you up
5. Q. g. You may be a man who does
not pant for tho sylvan shade Very
likely you arc seaside resortlst and do
not care for pants, but / simply say to
you that II you are worthy young man,
weary with llfe's battles-beaten back
perhaps, and wounded-wlth your neck
knocked crooked like a tomtit that has
run against telegraph wire I'm the night,
come up here into northern Wisconsin,
where the butternut CLEANS in the aU-
tumn sunshine and the ax-helve has her
home. Come where the sky is dark and
glorious blue and the town n magnifl-
cent red. Come where the coral cram
berry nestles in the great heart OF the
yielding marsh and tho sandhill cane
stands idly on the sedgy brim OF the
lonely lake through all the long, idle day
with his hands In the tail pockets Of his
tan-colored coat, trying TO remember
what he did with his handkerchief.
Come up here, S. Q. c., and be my
amanuensis. want a man 20 90 with
me on little private excursion from the
Dalles of the st. Crolx TO the Ssult Ste.
Marie. j want him TO go with me and
act as my private secre tary and carry
my canoe for me. The salary would be
small the first year, but you would have
good deal of fun. Most any one can
have fun with me. We would go mostly
for relaxation and TO build up our sys-
TENS. My system is pretty well built up,
but 1t would be pleasure to me TO
watch you build yours up.
You would be welcome S. Q. O.; well
come here in the fastness Of the forest;
welcome where the resinous mir of the
spruce and this tamarack would kiss your
wan cheek; welcome to the rocky shores
OF the grand old fresh-water monarch,
the champion heavyweight OF all the
great lakes.
Come over, 5. Q. 6. De my stenog-
rapher and l will show you where a
friend OF mine has concealed n water
melon patch in the very heart OF his corn
Held. Como over and we will show him
how concealment, like worm, may
feed upon his damaged fruit. Til then,
