A correct map of the Northwest will
show that the Northern Pacific Railroad
traverses the central portion Of Mime
sofa, North Dakota, Montana and Wash
ington for distance of nearly 1000
miles; it is the only railroad reaching
Jamestown, Bismarck. Miles City, Bill
lings, Livingston, Bozeman, Missoula,
cheney, Davenport, Palouse City,
Sprague, Ritzville, Yakima, Ellensburg,
Tacoma, Seattle, and in fact nine-tenths
of the Northwest cities, towns, and points
of interest.
The Northern Pacific is the shortest
trans-contlnental route from st. Paul
and Chicago to Helena, Butte, Anaconda,
Deer Lodge, Spokane Falls. Walla-
Walla, Dayton and Portland. and the
only one whose through trains reach any
portion of the new state Of Washington.
Land seekers purchasing Pacific Coast
second class tickets via st. Paul and the
Northern Pacific have choice from that
point of free Colonist Sleeping Cars or
Pullman's Tourist Furnished Sleepers
at charges as low as the lowest.
For the benefit of settlers the North
ern Pacific also gives ten day stop over
privilege on second-class North Pacific
Coast tickets at Spokane Falls and each
and every point west, including over l25
stations in Washington, thus enabling
persons seeking home to examine this
vast territory without mourning an ex-
pense of from SIS to $25 in travelling on
local tickets from point to point.
Insure for yourself comfort and safety
By having the best accommod ations at
forded, thereby avoiding change OF cars,
re-checking Of baggage, transfers and
lay overs en- route. Money can be saved

Not long ago Primrose and Vests min
strels were playing in small town down
south. Manager Truss was on the door,
as usual, looking out for the people who
try to crowd their way into shows in one
night stands without going through the
formality of purchasing tickets. Prim-
rose Stood with him, as he is not obliged
to appear until some time after the cur
tain goes up A very genteel looking,
bald headed man, who had bought gal
lery ticket, came down and said to Truss:
Excuse me, sir, but see some friends
downstairs here. | would like to run in
and speak to them a moment" He was
so polite about it that he was allowed to
pass in. The usual formality of asking
for permit was waived. But the man
did not come out. $50 in and see if
you can see him, George" said Truss,
and Primrose went in to take a
look. I'D know that bald head among
a thousand" he said. But he could not
see a bald headed man in the house. He
hurried back, blacked up and went on
the end. While he sat there he looked
around for the bald headed interloper,
but lie was nowhere to be seen. As soon
as he was through, which was long be-
fore the show was over, he hurriedly
washed off the burnt cork and went back
to join Truss. Find him YETI" he asked
NO" replied Truss, disconsolately,
Hes the first man who has beaten me
this season." Then the two watched the
audience as it filed out. Suddenly Prim.
rose nudged Truss and said: "There he
is, pointing out curly haired individ.
ual with two ladies. Guess you're
wrong" said Truss. mo, I'm not, said
Primrose; hes got wig on" And sure
enough he had "Well, let him alone,
said Truss He deserves it. No one
has ever tried the wig gag on me at the
door before. Chicago Herald.

eoMr eLAMe HE WORLD.

Don't blame tie world because the thorns ara
found among the roses;
The day that breaks In storm may be all sunshine
when it closes.
We cannot hope to always meet with fortunes
fond caressing;
And that which seems most hard to bear may
bring with it a blessing.
The buried seed must rot in earth ere it produce
the flower
And the weak plant to fructify must have both
sun and shower
So man, to gain development, must struggle with
life's crosses,
And view with calm philosophy his trials and his
losses
A deadly, pois'nous weed may yield a salve OF
surest healing,
The sweetest bloom may pois'nous be although
its bane concealing.
Things are not always what they seem, but still
twas heaven designed them,
And we should class them all as good and take
them as we find them.
Little we know of this brief life, aud nothing OF
its sequel;
Then let us take in humble trust all that may seem
unequal.
Gods ways are not our ways, and he should Ger.
tainly be trusted;
All that is wrong in his good time will surely be
adjusted.

The Dead Marine.

Capt. Mark Welch, late of Belfast,
Me-, was am old time ship master, and
many amusing stories are told of his sea
life Capt. Welch had a great abhor-
renee of tobacco, and disliked to find to-
bacco "quids" about the vessels deck.
One night he found an immense 'quid"
on the quarter deck alongside the house,
which had been recently painted. The
captain called all hands. The watch be-
low turned out, and as the night was
pleasant they could not imagine what
the difficulty was. "Get the watch
tackle, straps and handspike, and
bring them aft" shouted the captain.
The crew o5eyed in amazement. "Put
a strap around the main boom and hook
on the watch tackle" said Capt. Welch'
"What is to be doneY asked the mate.
"Sling that dead marine lying there
against the house and hoist him over
board" said the captain, pointing to the
tobacco "quid" 1t was done. No more
dead marines were found lying about
the decks after that. at.-LeEiston Journal.
