For the Public Good.

1t is an iudsputable fact that the hand
soonest vestibule trains that are now run
on the American continent are those on
the Burlington route, leaving from Union
depot in Denver, also st. Paul, immediate
ly on arrival of all through trains from the
west. The first and second class coaches
are magnificent, the reclining chair cars
suburb. the Pullman sleepers extremely
luXuriant, and as for the meals that are
served in those palace Burlington dining
crrs-yum yum. The next time you 40
east to Kansas City, Chicago or st, Louis,
if you mention to the ticket agent that you
want your ticket to read from Denver or
st. Paul over the Burlington route, you
will get it, and you will always be glad of
1t.
If you go via the Northern or Canadian
Pacific, the elegant vestibule trains OF
The Burlington Route, between st. Paul
and Chicago, or st. Louis, will carry you
along the eastern shore of the Mississippi
river for a distance of $50 miles, amidst
scenery that cannot be surpassed or, if you
go via the Oregon Short Line or Southern
Pacific, and your ticket reads via The
Burlington Route from Cheyenne or Den
yer, you will pass through all the thriving
cities and towns located in what is popu-
larly known as the Heart of the Continent.

If "a man decides to be on the safe
side these days he must be very
careful of the questions he asks.
The other morning "a Board of Trade
man offered a friend this propositions
Ifa man who WAS boru of French par
ents in England thirty five years
ago dies in America, what is he?
The friend argued that he was GER
tainly Frenchman. The bystan-
ders who was drawn into the heated
discussion that followed declared
that he was an Englishmnn. Sew
eral offers to bet OH the point were
made. Finally the Board of Trade
mans friend put up s. t. back his
French opinion against s5 put up on
the English opinion. Both parties
agreed to leave it to the Board of
Trade man. They asked: "What
was he?" And the Board of Trade
man answered: "A corpse, you suck
ers-he died." Then every one
stepped up to the bar.

Chinese Diplomatic Flirts.

The new Chinese minister does
not believe in lovemaking between
American girls and the lively young
attaches Of his legation, and gave
out word, even before his departure
from China, that under his reign
here no such nonsense will be per-
mitted. These young Chinese are
veritable mashers, and are known
as such from kitchen to drawing
room in every house in town. They
fiirt with the nurse-maids who air
babies in Dupont circle, in front of
the legation house; they make the
calling rounds" in the social season
for the purpose of flirting with the
silly young women who like the
novelty of receiving attention from
Orientals.
