Making an Empire,

January 18th, the German Empire
was ''proclaimed" That is the Off
cial date of its creation. But it had
been good deal longer making.
From the time when Frederick the
Great made for Prussia a name and
place among the powers of Europe;
during the long years while Won
Molke and Bismarck were preparing
the master strokes of diplomacy and
arms; till Sadowa revealed to as
tonished Europe, Prussia as super
ior to Austria. Five years more,
and Napoleon Third stood up to
try conclusions with the new power.
How he was overwhelmed and swept
away. as by a sudden whirlwind is
a matter OF history-and yet itseems
farther back than twenty years ago.
The making OF real empires goes on
silently-until we awake, and To-! it
is done. In the last twenty five
years the railroads have made the
West a giant empire, with mighty
social, commercial and political pow
Ier. Foremost among them has been
The Burlington system, whose 1000
miles OF road penetrates and binds
together ten states of the West.

thor of this remarka BILE little produc-
ton has spent many years in the
banking investment brokerage bust
ness, and possesses thorough knowl-
edge of finance generally, and bank

the very essence, boiled down, of a
luminous, unique and logical argu-

and immutable truths concerning
money, its nature, uses, attributes
and functions. There is not a super
fluous or idle sentence in the argu-

We have q peoples party club here
(which, by the way, is number one for
Minnesota.) We meet every Satur-
day night, and have adopted the
plan of discussing the several planks
in the P. P. platform. In order to
get an interest stirred, and also, OF
course, to get converts, we issued a
challenge to any believer in the old
parties to meet us in debate, but SO
far none have accepted, and we have
to choose one OF our number to take
the side of the old parties-and they
find it q rather hard task. We ex-
rect to increase our membership dur
ing the winter months, and we are
just studying how it can best be done.
There are plenty of people here in
sympathy with this cause, and by
making our club both intereting and
beneficial in an intellectual way, SO
to speak, l believe we will be able to
enroll the majority of our voters. !

Some pythagorean Mysteries,

Every lover of rare and curious in
formation knows that most of the an
clients were dead set" against beans,
but no modern unraveler of old time
mysteries knows why. 1t may be
truly said that there are but few
philosophers of the present day that
know beans" Pythagoras admon-
ished his pupils to- abstain from
BEANS" but on what grounds no one
knows. He was also authority for the
old-time superstition that any sem
tence written in bean juice could be
seen plainly reproduced on the disk of
the moon! Andrew Lang says that
the ancient folk lore of beans is a
most curious and interesting topic, be-
cause it seems wholly out of the ques-
ton that we should ever understand
what it was all about. Demeter was
the patroness of all fruits and vege-
tables, but the ancients considered ;t
impious to attribute to her the discov
cry of the bean. Heraclides, on tie
authority of Orpheus, declared that

Silence fell between them. Julien

Silence fell between them. Julien
continued, in changed voice:
II congratulate you on your mar.
riage to Mr.. Brigannes!"
"And l." said she, Congratulate you,
on your approaching union with Mile
de Maules."
She could say no mora; too many re-
mem brances of the past stirred within
her. She became as white as her
handkerchief, and lost consciousness.
When she recovered, Julien had disap-
peared; her husband was with her.
She accounted for her faintness on the
score of dizziness, and asked to be
taken home. The return was silent.
The incident had not escaped Brig
annes. He was thoughtful and somber
The next morning letter was
brought to Jeanne; she recognized
Julien's handwriting, tore it open and
read the following:
"My marriage with Mile. de Maules Is not
yet definitely settled. One word from you, and
will break it OF, resolved to wait till you be-
come widow tsat may offer you my name.
Julien"
The letter fell from her hands; at this
moment Brigannes entered the room,
saw her trembling, in tears. He re-
mained motionless, sadly contempla-
ting her. Pointing to the letter, she
said to him: "Read!'
He obeyed, then seemed to mediate
deeply. Finally, he seated himself by
his wife, took her hand in his, and
said, gravely:
my dear Jeanne, I am not blind to
the disparity of our union. When
married you, believed that, hardly a
wife, you would become a widow, and
that your marriage would simply have
changed your name and your position
in life, without imposing on you a

She ooked at him for second dry
eyed, her tears dried by the heat of her
blushes. Then, nervously, she rose,
went swiftly to writing table, wrote
few lines, and, holding out the paper
to her hu sband:
Here, she said, "send this answer to
Mr.. Devicq."
Brigannes took the note and read
these words:
marry Mile. de Maules. love my
husband"
A sad smile played over Brigannes'
features.
"Mr. Devicq will find it difficult to
believe you," he murmured.
"He will be wrong" replied Jeanne,

We have seen recent statement to
the effect that white oats contain more
nutriment than black oats, and should
always be chosen for feeding horses.
The only difference lies in the fact that
the black oats have little thicker
husk, sufficient to make difference of
perhaps five per cent in the feeding
value. A horse cannot be we'll fed for
less than 30 cents per day. This makes
