The Boom Burst .

A few weeks ago the SENTINEL made
note of the fact that several
young men had left tlns place to take
up homesteads in the Rainy RIVER
country. Since then Iut little was
heard from them until last Thursday
when word was received that after
travelling through great extent of
country they had abandoned the search
for pine claims in the cegion to the
north of Grand Rapids, MINI, and had
gone to Tower to try thair luck in that
vicinity.
We thought the boys little too fast
when they left here, but hope they
may yet be able to strike something
rich IN the vicinity of Flower. 1t
would certainly have been much better
and mSch less expensive to have sent
an explorer out first to asseitain if there
were any claims to be had.

"Boys, I suppose we have got to

Here are the messages they sent their
loving wives:

A TURKEY DOLL.
Where Little jeans Mamma Found the
Last Sundays Dinner


Where Little jeans Mamma Found the
Last Sundays Dinner.
Jean always had the queerest doll
you ever saw. There was Tom, whose
head was big hickory nut stuck on
stick; John, who was once a little pine
burr; Sallie, whose green face showed
her to have been small watermelon;
and her twin sister, Susy, whose yellow
face proved her to have grown as a
little yellow squash. Besides these,
there was red-headed Teddy, the
bright plaid shawl whose red fringe
answered for hair; Chloe, the brown
cloak; and Chibbie dearest, the yellow
one.
Yet Jean wanted more. She dressed
up Toddlekins, the cat, and Bright
eyes, the dog; but they hated clothes,
and would not lie in cradle. Then
she tried Biddy, the hem but size
pecked and squawked
Jean was looking for a new child,
when one Saturday night her papa
brought home large turkey, ready to
be cooked the next day. In the morn
ing mamma and papa went to church,
leaving Jean with the servant girl,
who soon strayed off to speak to the
nextdoor girl. o ts
| Jean at once ran downstairs, took
the turkey from the cellar, and tugged
it up the stairs to her room. She
opened her bureau drawer and threw
everything out, hunting for dress for
her turkey child. Her best new red
silk frock was just the thing, so over
the turkeys head she put it, pulled the
two legs through the sleeves, and there
was the baby all dressed.
Then she sat and rocked it, forget
ting everything in her JOY at having a
big new doll.
When her father and mother returned
they found Katie hunting everywhere
for the turkey to cook. Up and down
they looked, but at last decided that it
had been stolen. Mamma went up
stairs to take off her bonnet, when
what should she see but Jean in her
little rocker, with the turkey held
closely to her, while all around were
the other dollsl Then Jean had TO
give up her baby to be cooked for dim
ner. Wasn't that sad?-Hal Harring'

A Shot that Saved a Life.

"The prettiest shot ! ever saw was
made by woman" said I. r. Lane, OF
Oshkosh, Wis, an enthusiastic sports
man. 81 was surveying in Coles coun-
ty, ILL.,, in 1s4s and stopped for dinner
at the cabin of settler named Junken.
We sat in the shade by the cabin door
while Mrs. Junken prepared dinner.
A little tow-headed tot less than year
old was creeping about the big yard.
Suddenly we heard the sharp whir-r-r
of rattleHake. Fully sixty yards
away big fellow was coiled ready to
strike, while within q yard of it, and
creeping directly toward it as if
charmed, was the child. To cry out
would cause the rattler to strike; to
reach the child in time to save it was
impossible. The snakes head shot for
ward and at the same instant a sharp
report rang out from the cabin door
and his snakeship was rolling hesdless
in the grass We found Mrs. 'Junken
lying in dead faint across the still
smoking rifle. She caught the rattler's
head at sixty yards on the fiy."-St.

er" is hers whether she ever had any
children or not. The rest of the real
estate goes to the husbands heirs.
The widows share of personal prop
erty varies in each state. AS rule
she has one third of it and the children
two thirds. If no children are living,
or their descendants, she has a larger
share, one half some states, the whole

AS the widow is legally competent to

WHAT AlLED HER HOLIDAY.

A little maid had left her play
To ask what allied her holiday
"Somefng did spoil III Somebody
has spoiled my booful day for mel"
"Who daredi Who daredY cried all the birds
With such sound Of twittering words
That all the people passing by
Looked up to listen curiously.
''Who spoiled itf" hummed bumble' bee.
mot II I've worked too busily"
The south wind shivered at the thought,
And spilled the perfumes that he brought.
So wistfully she asked of EACH
What none could tell, what none could teach
For what it was no Que could say
Had spoiled her happy holiday
But in her little trundlo bed
She dreamed soft hand touched her head.
No one was near; but, as she slept,
Close to her ear her Conscience crept:
II did it'll Twas only
That stole the blue from out your sky
] shut the precious perfumes up
In every dainty flower cupl
II duled the splendor OF the grass;
Idimmed the rivers dimpled glass.
The very birds sang harshlyf-whyl
Twas l, dear, troubled you-just II"
All in her pretty bed she lay,
The little maiden tired OF play;
Soft in her sleep we heard her say:
II will be good another dayl"
