Two Conversations,

The two pale faces looking into the
great shop window filled with soft, beau
tiful furs, belonged to a young mother
scantily clad and little boy of FIVE or
thereabout, both lingering instinctively
as they passed the wealth of warm
clothing displayed so temptingly
"Them things must be very warm" said
the little fellow, land nice and soft,
nanny" Every warm, dear; very
nice and SOFT" answered the young
creature, with unconscious repetition as
blast of icy wind came from the chill
East river, making them both shiver as
they walked slowly ON. It was only a
chance scrap of conversation heard as
the crowd surged by.
AS if to mark the irregularities of
fate, the places Of the little mother and
her boy were Immediately filled by two
young girls glowing with health and
spirits, and evidently enjoying the keen
wintry air. ''Furs are selling for really
nothing here" remarked one Of them to
her companion; 81 am going in to get a
new boa and nuf, although really do
not need them at all; but they look so
pretty and soft and warm that cannot
resist them" Almost the same words
as those used by the shabby little child,
but with what difference!--New York
Tribune.

Suggestion About the Horse Car Question,


An uneasy conscience considers no
point as settled, but ever concerns itself
with the Encouragement of old argu-
ments and pleas. Therefore is it per-
haps that one meets everywhere at this
season paragraphs in the papers all bear
ing on the question of giving seats in
horse cars up to women. It is beautiful
to see with what unerring regularity
this ancient campaign is invariably
opened. Year after year, with that first
touch Of frost which brings the summer
traveller back to town, it begins. have
often been struck with the persistence
OF old types in these arguments, where
rules Of mutual courtesy and tact seem
forgotten.
A new suggestion has, however, been
made. Separate cars, it is urged, might
be provided for men, just as in ferry
boats different cabins are set apart. One
car, in other words, bearing the an
nouncement "For men only" to be run
at certain intervals. But, after all,
would this answer any better? Women
in crowded ferries have to stand, seats
in their cabin being filled by men, and
no woman yet lived with courage to
penetrate the cabin on the other side,
claiming a seat there for herself. Why
not acknowledge at once that women,
even in the rush of travel, carry with
them a certain quality of refinement
that no man can command at will
among his fellows. We are ready enough
to recognize this; at home. Why, not
recognize this power wherever women
move in public places?- Harper's Bazaar

w. c. u, NOTES,

I. Mrs. E. Bullivant, district president
Of the w. G. T. u, has been spending
few days in town. On Saturday even
ing she delivered an able address to
mothers in the Congregational church.
The house was we'll filled and many
gentlemen were present as we'll as
ladies'. Mrs. Bullivant is truly a
strong christian temperance woman,
but she does not advocate woman suf-
frage except in relation to the temper
ance movement. She referred in an
eloquent manner to work accomplished
in prisons, in logging camps, personal
work for inebriate men and especially
work among the children. The follow
ing are very few of the thoughts pre-
sented:
Parents often disparage their chill
dren in the presence of visitors. It is
wrong. Train the disposition from the

leaders of the twentieth century. -
Would you have this work stop?

The lecture was replete with illus

same lady was given in the M. e.

An old logger who used to swing the
ak in the pineries twenty years ago,
and who now operates extensive camps
fell to discussing with me the numer-
Gus accidents now occurring in the
woods. He charges the majority of
the casualties to carelessness on the
part of the woodsmen. "When I used
to chop" said he, I'VE used to clear a
track through the brush, and through
the snow if it was deep, by which we
could retreat from a falling tree. At
ter a tree is cut off man can run forty
rods before it strikes the ground, and
that is the way he should do. But
many of these men who saw a tree
down will get back ten or twenty feet
behind a tree and watch the falling
tree. When a tree goes down it's
bound to fire back some broken limbs,
or if it strikes another tree in falling
that tree will hurl limbs. During cold
weather like this the danger is greater,
and tree falling among others when
everything is frozen is likely to have
every limb stripped off it before it
reaches the ground. When a man can
get twenty or thirty rods away from
his tree he ought to do SO, for It will
fire limbs like cannon. - Minneapolis

A Brave Old Patriot Gone.

3
/ After lingering illness, that brave
old soldier and upright and honorable
citizen, Phineas Gates, passed away"
at his home in Wyanette, Isanti
county, last Saturday evening. Flu
neral services were conducted at the
family residence yesterday A. M, by
Rev. J. S. Bouck, then the Wallace
Rines Post No. l42, G. A. r. took
charge of the obsequies.
| AS the mournful procession entered
the village it was met by guard Of
honor consisting of a squad Of Sons of
Veterans, who, with reversed arms
marched alongside of the casket to Oak
Knoll cemetery, where, after appro-
pirate G.. A. r. ceremonies, the re-
mains of the departed comrade were
laid at rest.
Phineas Gates was born at Stowe,
Mass, Dec. 5th, 1919. From 1910 till
lS43 he served as sailor on the United
States man-of-war, Ohio. He came to
Minnesota in 1858, and resided in
| Winona county until the breaking out
OF the war. He volunteered his SER
vices to his country in 1861, and en-
listed in the First Minnesota light
artillery. He participated in several
hard fought battles, and was dis
charged on account of disability at
Corinth, Miss, Aug. 9Th, 1882 He
re-enlisted in 1868 as sergeant in Co. D.
Ind. Battalion MINI. Cavalry and was
honorably mustered out at Fort Smell
ling, June 18th, 1866. After leaving
the army he came to Wyanette where
he resided until the date of his death.
He was held in high esteem by his
neighbors, and has ever been looked
up to as one of the fathers of the town.
He was a patriotic citizen and cher
ished an undying devotion for the
starry banner. He leaves widow and
four grown up children to mourn the
loss of a faithful husband and a loving
father.
Stern old patriot, may the gentle
dews of heaven brighten with verdure
the grave where you sleep;" and if
there is a haven of rest beyond the
tomb may your soul find peaceful an
chorage in it's placid waters.
How sleep the brave who sink to rest,
| By all their country's wishes blessed!
The following resolutions were ad-
opted by the Wallace Rines Post G. A.
R., Of which the deceased was vener-
ated member:
/. WHEREAS it has pleased our Great
Commander to remove from our midst
our venerable cOmrade, Phineas Gates,
who departed this life Feb. 18th, 1892;
therefore be it
|; Resolved, That as comrades we extend
to the family Of our deceased brother
our heartfelt sympathy; and be- it
further
Resolved, That the charter of this
Post be draped for a period of 80 days,
in memory Of him who has joined the
silent majority beyond the river;
Resolved, That these resolutions be
spread upon our records, and copy
|'sent to the family of our deceased com
rade.
