NO OTHER RAILWAY 15RTHv II TIE

has in SO short period gained the rep
utation and popularity enjoyed by the
WISCONSIN CENTRAL LINE. From
n comparatively unknown factor in the
commercial world, it has been trans
formed to an independent, influential,
grand Through Route, with magnif-
cent depots, superb equipments and I'M
surpassed terminal facilities. Through
careful catering to details, it has won
for itself a reputation for solidity, safety,
convenience and attention to its pat
rOns, second to no railroad in the
country. Pullman sleepers, models of
palatial comfort, dining cars in which
the cuisine and general appointments
are up to the highest standard, and
are among the chief elements which
have contributed towards catering sue
cessfully to a discriminating public.
Located directly on its line, between
Chicago and Milwaukee, and st. Paul
and Minneapolis, and Chicago and Ash
land and Duluth, are the following thirty
ing cities of Wisconsin and Michigan:
Burlington, Waukesha, Fond du Lac.
Oshkosh, Neenah, Menasha. Stevens
Point. Chippewa Falls, Eau Claire,
wood, Mich, and Bessemer, Mich.

with her loss and don't want to pay. An
other tnlng, the majority of women who
speculate can't afford it They are Dip
ping into their savings. When they are
gone they are like as not to din into
others they hold IN trust, Speculation is
bad for man, but my experience proves
that woman who Is bitten by it has the
fever twice as bad.
THE very last woman's account / had
on my books taught me how far women
will go. Ny fair client made little
money at first. Then she plunged, of
course. 1t was up and down for while.
Finally 1t was down, very much down,
with her luck. She came to me weeping
and wanted me TO take her diamonds as
margin for one more deal. OF course /
wouldn't do that. Wea, sho went away,
bat came back the next day with some
money, without her diamonds, and accom-
panied by Misunderstanding beast who
stood by and saw the money paid over
before he left. That stake she lost, too.
Then she came in the private Office. and,
after some Mysteries, said she had borrow
ed the diamonds full value from her
companion of the previous day. on con-
dition that she pay him besides his inter
est one-half the profits she made in the
deal. If her husband found it out she
was ruined. She begged my help. She
promised if I would, she would overcome
the fascination speculation had for her
and stay away for good. Well, the upshot
of it was l got her diamonds back by
paying one-third more than they were
worth, and gave them to her as bride to
keep her promises. She did keep her
word, strange to say. She never entered
my office nsr any brokers' afterward
Her husband never knew of her specula-
tions. l charged up the cost of the dia-
monds to expense account, and swore nc
woman's account, if it was worth $780,.

In Europe the is greater excess of
women in the north than in the states of
middle Europe and the east, in some of
which the women are in the minority.
Through Europe as whole, the number
of women is very definitely in excess of
that of the men, and the excess appears
to be increasing. 1t was very great after
the Napoleonic wars; then the numbers
gradually tended toward equality, and
nearly reached it Q847 to 1850, 1909 to
10000; then they diverged again, and
stood in 1870, 1907 to 1000. The phases
of increased difference are generally
observable after wars, and latterly appear
to be the result partly of the enormous
immigration which has taken place to
other quarters OF the earth. In America
as whole, and in Australia and Africa,
on the other hand whittier this emigra-
tion with its preponderance of males is
tending, the men are in excess, and the
excess is increasing wish the constant
arrival of new parties of emigrants.
Nevertheless, a near approach TO equality

A Chicago Broker Says They are Very Tn
satisfactory Customers.
Chicago Herald.
You can't find one broker in ten who
would take woman's account" said a
we'll known broker just after turning
away lady caller last week.
"Why notf Amt they big enough?"
Some of them are large. There Is a
woman ON the Forth side who used to got
in for thousand shares at crack.
There is another at present IL town who
is really big player in stocks, and some
times has 100000 or $4,000 up in her
brokers' hands. There is another, tie
widow of a rich railroader, who makes
and loses $4,000 at a time. But even
the account of these big ones are NOT
sought AFTER
"Don't they pay commissions prompt
ly?"
"Tbey have to do that. Commissions
are charged up the moment the trade is
opened"
'Why, then, if women would margin
their deals and keep their n argins good,
is not their business catered tor"
because they are kickers first, last,
and always. One woman will talk more
about her trades, ask more questions,
come oftener for advice, and annoy
broker more than twenty men. # they
make money they give broker no peace.
They want him to go right ahead for
them on his own judgment-a thing
reputable brokers do not do except in
the rarest instances, and then not with
out some directions, and for nobody but
their oldest customer. If women loses,
she Days her Losses ia manner that
makes a man feel simply like the devil.
He has to say he's so sorry, to sympath
ize and cry over what wasn't his fault but
hers. If you give her advice and it
proves bad-broksrs are not infallible;
if they were they wouldn't be brokers
but speculators-why she charges you

THE ASPARAGUS.
An Early and Most Delicious Garden Vege
table and Luxury to the Farmer.

Asparagus is the earliest, easily cared
for, and most delicious of garden vege-
tables; yet, in how small a number of
gardens it is found. 1t grows with the
ease of weeds, and when once started, if
taken care of, it will come up every
spring for a lifetime. It grows with
great profuseness in the Southern States,
coming up in the gardens, orchards and
grain fields, and for several weeks furn-
ishes the farmers with a dish of the most
exquisite taste. Many fam ers grow it
for profit, and when cultivated and fer
tilted it will yield net profit of 800
per ace.
Before the plants begin to start in
early spring the dead stalks of last years
growth are cut and raked Of the field
with harrow, which loosens the soil at
the same time. As soon as the young
stalks reach the height of six or eight
inches they are cut, trimmed, packed in
lunches of II stalks to the bunch, and
shipped to the city in crates. The cutting
then continues at intervals until the
people get tired of asparagus and it does
not pay to ship. After the cutting is

ETERNAL JUSTICE.
CHARLES MACKAYE.

The man is thought knave or fool,
Or bigot pit ting trime;
Who for the advancement Of his kind,
Is wiser than his time.
For hum the hemlock shall diStill;l
For MIN the axe be bared
For him the glbbet shall be built,
For hum the stake prepared
Him snail the Scorn and wrath OIL men,
Pursue with deadly aim;
And malice, envy, spite and les
Shall deSecrate his name.
But truth shall conquer at the last,
For round and round we run,
And ever the right comes upperInoSt,
And ever IS justice done.
Pace through thy cell, lad Socrates,
Cheeriy IOand fro;
Trust to the impulse OF thy soul,
And let the poison now.
They may Shatter to earth the lamp OF clay,
That holds light divine,
But they cannot quench the fire of thought,
By any such deadly vine;
They cannot blot thy spoken words,
From the memory OF man,
By all the poison ever was breWed,
Since time its course began.
To-day abhorred tomorrow adOred,
So round and round we run,
And ever the truth comes uppermoSt,
And ever is justice done.
Plod in thy cave, gray AnchOrite
Be wiser than thy peers;
Augment the range Of human power,
And trust to coming years.
They may call thee wizard anu uAOlh aCCSlAoSu,
And load tnee with diSpralse;
Thou vert born five hundred years TOO soon,
For the comfott of thy days.
But not too soon for human kind;
Time hath reward in store;
And the demons Of our SlreS become,
The saints that we adore.
The blind can see, the slave IS lord;
SO round and round we run,
And ever the wrong IS proved TO be wrong,
And ever is justice done.
Keep, Calico, to thy thought,
And nerve thy soul to bear;
They may gIoat DER the senseless words the
wiring
From the pangs of thy despair;
They may veil thy eye, but they cannot hide,
The suns meridian glow;
The heel of priest may tread thee down,
And a tyrant work thee woe.
But never q truth has been destroyed
They may curse and call it crime,
Pervert and betray, or SANDER and STAY,
ItteachcS for a time.
But the sunshine, aye, shall light the sky,
As round and round we run,
And the truth shall ever come uppermost,
And Justice shall be done.
And live there now such men as these,
With thoughts like the great of old!
Many have died in their misery,
And left their thoughts untold;
And many live and are ranked and mad,
And placed in the eel worlds ban,
For sending their bright, far-seeing souls,
Three centuries in the van.
They toll in perjury and grief,
Unknown. if not maligned
ForlOTn, forlOrn, bearing the scorn,
OF the mEanest Of mankind.
But vet the world goes round and round,
Aud the genial seasons run,
And ever the truth comes uppermOSt
And ever IS justice done.
