raised to a height of about forty-fve

LONG
Over a Thousand Mile Trfp bv a 3
Year Old Child.

There was = wee bit of q girl on the
east bound passenger train yesterday,
around whom clusters a real veil of ro-
nance. Her name she said, in reply to a
question, was Lee Oretta Abeille, and she
Is not quite 8 years old. But notwith-
standing that fact the little girl was trav-
cling alone a distance of over q thousand
miles. She was as clipper as = society
belle. as reserved as a school girl and as
ladylike as anybody. The only creden-
rials the young lady possessed was a plain.
well written note to the conductor, to-
gether with q first class ticket.
The tote was from the child's mother,
snd asked the conductor of the train to
look out tor the safety of the little girl
while under his care. She boarded the
tram at Moscow. Idaho, and she goes to
South Dakota via Council Bluffs. Every
conductor with whom tho little girl has
ridden gave her a little souvenir OF some
sort and wrote his name in a small album
she had. She was taken into a Pullman
car at the depot and tucked up cozily ID a
nice warm berth. She will ride to Coun-
Gil Bluffs In it. The child has received q
perfect ovation ever since she left Idaho
from everyone who learned her story, and
she never failed, one of the conductors
said, to WIN the heart of anybody who
talked to her. Little Lee Oretta, when
she becomes a young lady. will probably
chuckle to herself when she thinks OF the
long journey she made alone before she
wa 8 years old.

they have been in use tor over thirty
years. and their value has been attested
by the highest medical authorities, as
well as BY voluntary testimonials from
those who have used them.
Allcock's Porous Plasters are purely
vegetable and absolutely harmless. They
require no change of diet and are mol
affected by wet or cold. Their action
docs not interfere with labor or business;
you can toll and yet be cured while hard
at work. They are 80 pure that the
youngest. the oldest. the most delicate
person of either sex can use them with
great benefit.

..Mr. wilkinson, widows.o

VIM. Glllette's latest comedy, Mr.. VII
kiinson's Widotos, will be presented at the
opera house Saturday night, March 10,
by Chas. Frohman's comedians. The
new comedy is an adaptation OF an anus
ing play that enjoyed much favor recently
in Paris. In eliminating much Of the
racy wit that made the plot palatable to
French taste, Mr.. Gillette has added con.
siderable humor of a more agreeable
nature. What the scenes lack in the
riskiness of the original are atoned for by
the grotesaue for which Mr.. Gillette's
pen is celebrated. The new comedy made
an instantaneous hit in New York and
enjoyed the most profitable run ever
known in the history of Proctor's Twenty
third street theater, for $50 nights. There
is not a dull moment In the play. Its
characters are natural, Its situations are
ludicrous and its dialogue sparkling. The
performance is a sparkling. fzzIng tri
umph from end 10 end. 1t Is a triumph
of laughter. The company Is one of con-

As soon rs the growth is completed the
plant should gradually receive more sun
and air and less water, so as to ripen off
the pseudo bulb WELL and thus insure good
lowering. After the growth has been
ripened only enough water should be
given to keep the plant from shriveling.
"As soon as the buds begin to show,
more water should he given TO fully de-
veiop the flowers. After the towering
season is over the plant generally begins
to- show signs of growth, when 1t
should receive potting or rebasketing
if needed; if not, then only top
dressing of sphagnum moss. and the plant
may be started into growth as described.
The best potting material is good tlbrous
peat and ceah sphegnum moss, with
plenty of potsherds intermixed. Good
drainage should he provided and plants
we'll elevated above the rim of pots or has
kets. In repotting care should be taken
not to disturb the roots. Rather break the
old pot, while the basket can be set into
larger one and some material worked
around 0verpotting should be avoided
and plants not disturbed or potted unless
necessary.
Orchids, as rule, are fond of pure.
fresh air and plenty o! light, while many
delight in sunshine. The plants shold be
kept clean from insects by occasional
