Here in New England. where most

Burdette's Reasons.

Private Robert ]. Burdette expresses
himself as follows:
Why am l a woman suffragist? Be.
good hard common sense than man.
Because she doesn't give $3.50 for an
article that she knows very well she
can get for seventy-five cents. Because
she does not stalk loftily away from the
counter without her change if the rob

counting it out. Because she is too in
dependent to pay the landlord 50. 25 for
her dinner, and then pay the head
waiter one dollar to send her waiter
who will bring it to her for fifty cents.
Because she will hold her money tight

two hours until she first gets receipt
for it from the fellow who made her
husband pay the same bill three times
last year. Not any "Just give you

no shoes on his feet and battered old
straw hat on his head, sat on nail keg
on the back porch of Pap Raper's store
at Middletoq's Station. 1t was the aft
ernoon of a hot July day; and as the
back porch of the store was used as a
landing platform for passengers and
freight by the railroad company, and as
it was also located at the north end OF
the store, it was favorite resort for the
,country-side loafers, who. when they
could get half day off from their
farm work during the ''crapping sea-
son." delighted to congregate there to
waffle, TO chat over neighborhood az
fairs and to watch for the passenger
train from the east, which came in at
six o'clock. But on this particular &C.
casion Champ was alone; for a wonder,
there were no other idlers about Pap
Raper himself was inside the store ex-
changing dry-goods and groceries for a
lot of butter and eggs, which small
boy and girl had brought in from a
neighboring farm.
Champ sat on the nail kcg and whit
tied industriously. While doing this
he was also meditating, and that very
deeply. Occasionally he would pause
in his employment and would gaze in
tently up the track, whose rails glis-
tened in the bright sunlight and above
which the rays of heat shimmered and
danced in manner that was both daz-
tling and painful to the eyes. a
On the other side of the track. and
opposite to the store, stood the black
smiths shop; through the open door OF
this and from where he sat, Champ
could see the blazing fire on the black
smiths forge--could see the shower of
sparks as they flew like stars from his
hammer and the iron he was welding,
and although he did not realize it, per-
haps, could hear the musical clatter of
moving machine that was running in
meadow not a dozen rods from the
store. A quail flew up on the fence
down the track and began to whistle

forts mate; robin sat singing in big
elm near by, and a crow went scream
ing and cawing towards the woods,
which were only short distance away;
but still Champ sat and whistled and
thought. He was oblivious to the
sights and sounds by which he was sur
rounded. Neither the beauty of the
landscape, the song of the birds, nor
the musical tink, tink of the black
smiths hammer had any particular
charms for him just then. At this time
old Pap Raper, having gotten through
with the juvenile customers already
mentioned, came out of the store with
sprinkling can and began to dampen
the porch in order, as he said, 'sto cool
things of a leetle mite" With a
lavish hand he played the can, and in
so doing gave Champs bare feet and
legs liberal drenching with the ice
cold water which he had just pumped
from the we'll. ''F'
much Obliged" said Champ, as he
rather hastily arose to his feet, ''much
obliged, Pap, but you needn't to have
put yourself to so much trouble"
ts"0h, no trouble er tall, Champ" re-
piled the old fellow; yer looked sorter
, hot an worried bout suthin' an jess
thought leetle o this nice, cool woorter

'.Well, / do need stirrin' up bit," he
answered. ''an'that's Jess what I've been
a-thinkin' about for some time. Pap"
he continued, I'm goin' to git out o.
here"
"Whatl" the old man gasped. 'tyer
hain't goin' ter leave US, are you,
Champ"
"That's what: I'm goin' to start fer
the Black Hills ter-morrer mornin'r'
II 'sThe Black Hills! Why, boy, there's
Injuns out there, an plenty on 'em,
too"
II know it; but there's gold, too"
'Champ, take my advist an stay here
in ole Ingeanny. It's a mighty sight
better place than the Black Hills. Sides,
whatll your pap and mother say,
Champ"
Yes, Ingeanny is purity good place
for some folks, an I'd like to stay here;
but I've made up my mind to go to the
Black Hills an Tn ergoin.. / KANT
come back emmy poorer thanI am now
an may come back richer an l may
never come back at all; but all the same
I'm a-goin'."
The old store-keeper made no reply
for moment, but stood looking up the
track in the direction from which the
evening passenger train would soon be
due.
Then he turned to go back into the
store, and as he did so he said: Champ,
] hope you'll have good luck; but let me
tell you, you'll find some purity sharp
fellers while you're knockin' Ground
out there, an eff You don't keep your

Here a customer called TO the old man
from the front of the store and he hur-
ried in in answer to the summons.

into his pocket, and started or at brisk
