A Novel Venture,

The American Cereal Company will run
Northern Pacific special train consisting
of fifteen cars loaded with Quaker oats
from Cedar Rapids. Ia, TO the Pacific
coast via the Burlington. Cedar Rapids &
Northern, Minninneapolis & St. Louis and
Northern Pacific railways.
While the American Cereal Company are
the largest manufacturers of oatmeals and
cereals in the world, it would hardly seem
possible for them to have puilt up so large
a trade on their celebrated brand of Quaker
rolled white oats in so short time.
Two years ago this company sent q
special train of Quaker oats 10 San Fran
cisco, and at that time had not introduced
this brand at Oregon and Puget Sound
points. Since then the demand has grown
so large that they are now enabled to send
this full train at one time.
The cars will all be artisticaily decor
ated, and through the courtesy of the
Northern Pacific officials the train will
make daylight runs, stopping at all of the
principal points, where representatives of
the company will distribute samples and
souvenirs.
The train will be thoroughly advertised
at all points and will attract thousands of
visitors, who will be amply repaid by See
ing the most com plete train ever sent out.

AGRAIN OF SENSE.

There used to be a prejudice
in the minds of some of the
people against taking patent
medicines, but this has now
been happily done away with,
because people find that a pat
ent medicine carefully put up in
quantity is more apt to be the
remedy for the malady. than
when they are given a perscrip-
ton hastily written by a ply
stefan who is worked nearly to
death, and then filled by a
sleepy clerk at the prescription
desk. A medicine like Reds
German Cough and Kidney
Cure contains no poison or OPT
ates, and can be relied upon to
help the case which it claims to
be able to treat. The success
that has attended it is marvel.
GUS on this account, and no one
need be afraid to take it, for it
contains no poison, and is free
from opiates. If your local
druggist don't have it on his
shelf, tell him he can get it of

Unable something about Miss Storer that
assures one of sympathy and charity. She
IS a young, sweet faced woman, with a
world of tenderne.s in her eyes and in her
voice. The little silver Maltese cross she
wears at her throa, shows her to be one of
the Kings Daughters"
She kindly took me through the house
at my request al, showed me the rooms
where the girls -pt. Six or seven iron
bedsteads with vie coverlids are placed
in each sleeping Chamber Of the wide, old
fashioned house. 10 be sure there are no
bright pictures or pretty girlish trfies ar
ranged about the looms TO make them at
tractive, but the uy.,t little beds must be
welcome indeed ra the really destitute
girls. The large front room above the
parlor Is used as a general sitting room by
the girls, where they can study or sew
every afternoon.
When / looked in the other day there
were about ten young girls busily engaged,
some with their books and others in sew
ing. They seemed delightfully."- like big
happy family. ~ is one of the rules of
the institution that no girl shall leave us
without knowing now to read and write p"
said the superintendent. And so a Dor
ton of each day is devoted to their in
struction in the simple branches of educa.
ton. They are also taught sewing by hand
and on the machine, besides being trained
in all kinds of household duties, so as to be
able to take the positions that are obtained
for them in Christ ian families, where they
will find good homes"
Rock Island daily Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1886-1893, 1892-02-25

Applicants are received at the home be-
tween the ages Ct twelve and twenty-five,
and all who wait % become inmates must
pledge themselves to obey the rules, to re.
main at least month, and to accept such
situations on leaving as the superintendent
may approve.
The girls while in the home rise at G
O'Clock in the morning, and go to bed at Q
O'Clock. Every morning they meet in the
parlor for devotional services, and after
breakfast are kept busy with domestic du.
ties. In the aftern oons they study, sew or
are allowed to go out for walk; never,
however, being permitted to go upon the
streets unless accompanied by some one
who is connected with the home
do the girls ever become dissatisfied
and wish to go away?'' l asked the SUPER
intendent.
Sometimes, but not very often,'' she an
swered. ''Of course it is natural that a
young girl should become restless under
the restraint she n ist feel here, if she has
been allowed her own free will before she
came here, but for the most part we are
able to control them, and they learn to ap-
preciate the advant ages of the home.

of waits who drift into the paths of sin in
this city every year. She had been placed
in the Five Points ouse of Industry, but
she shrank from the companions she met

determined.
when she came under my care | saw
that it was question either of interesting
her in the development of an uncommonly
bright mind or leaving her untutored but
vivid Imagination full sway to carry her
into ways of idleness and sin. / allowed
that girl to spend almost all of her time in
the study room, and happily was able at
last to get home in the family of a school
teacher, where she was looked upon less as
