to be informed as to the cheapest,
shortest and most pleasant route.
You will wish to purchase your tick
ct via the route that will subject you
to no delays, and by which through
trains are run. Before you start you
should provide yourself with a map
of the Gulf Route, (Kansas City,
Springfield & Memphis r. r. the
only route from the South to the
West. This line runsits entire trains,
with Pullman Palace Sleeping Cars,
free Reclining Chair Cars and Elegant
Day Coaches from Memphis to Kan
sas City, saving many hours time
over any other route.
For emigrants from the South to
Oregon, Washington or the far West,
this route is especially desirable, as
holders of emigrant tickets are by
this route carried in first-clasS cars on
first-class trains. Close connections
are made at Union Depot, Kansas
City, with overland routes, carrying
free emigrant sleeping cars through

You may travel good way on

going, but you can't get back when
you want to.
When you have learhed to listen,
you have already acquired the rudi-
ments of good education.
Faith won't enable a man to lift a

The Last of the BuffalOps.

alt was but four years ago." said w.
S. Bar0ws, of Mandan, Oak, "that
bought 10, 900 buffalo horns, and to-day
it is about impossible to obtain one pair
for love or money. According to the
stories of hunters and trappers who have
been engaged in their occupations for
years, one small herd of buffalo exists at
this time as representative of the count
less thousands that swarmed on the
Western prairies and they have sought
protection in the Yellowstone Park.
There are about thirty in the herd and
many of the tourists through the park
last summer encountered them during
their travels. Even these are likely to
become exterminated, unless the Govern
ment takes vigorous measures for their
security, as their whereabouts are known
to few daring spirits. whoiwiil take des
perate chances to kill them, if they can
be decoyed near the boundary line of
the park where detection would be diff
cult. The experiments of Taxidermist
w. T. Hornaday, of the National
Museum, in quest of fspecimens of buffalo
for that institution, have already been
given at length, and he had orders be-
sides from European museums for some
of these animals. After working in
dustriously for two seasons, and ira
versing all the country north and west of
Minnesota to the Canada line, he sue
ceeded in finding two or three animals,
which have been stuffed and mounted
for the museum at Washington, and un.
less the United States Government de-
Cides to pick out few of its only herd
as a present TO some European museum,
the foreign orders never will be filed"

During the recent blizzard o knot of

place in little hotel in Maine, and dis
cussed politics, the bear crop, and reli-
gion. At length they discussed the in
teresting phases of dissension which
arose of late in neighboring country
congregation, when one of the party re-
marked that it was all foolishness-that
the church committee didn't know how
to run that institution. Then he said:
"Speaking of church news, gentle
men, | belonged to q church in Oldtown
once that was always i'll stew. Some
crank was always kicking against some
thing the parson had said ill his sermons,
and we shifted ministers SO often none
of then ever stayed long enough to get
used to the pulpit. Finally, they ap
pointed new committee to look for n
new parson, and [ was one of the COM
mittee Well, we nosod around ana fl
nally hit upon what we considered IL
good man, and sent for him. When he
arrived we went to the parsonage to
meet him and kind of give him the lay of
the land. After speaking of the various
rows we'd had in the church, Squire
Slower Rhines of the committee said to
the new parson:
"'Now, Elder Merrill, we think you'll
do first rate. Here's a good house to
live in, and theirs a church to preach
i'll. Your salary is no object, but take
my advice and never mention religion
or politics in that pulpit.
{" Well, how did that parson come
out?" asked some one.
"Come out? He didn't come out at
al. He's there yet.
