Among the graduates from Smiths
college this year is a young woman who
deserves an especial sort >of diploma
She is Miss Alice Martin of st. Louis.
and four years ago, when she began the
freshman course, she was counted as one
of the wealthiest girls in the college.
Returning home at the close of her
sophomore year, she found that every
vestige of her fathers property had been
swept away. Instead of giving up in de-
spair, as some girls would have done,
she at once determined to complete her
collegiate education whatever the cost.
She therefore secured position as teach
er of French in the public school in Old
Hadley, a bit of q village about three
miles from Smith, to and from which
she has walked every day for the past
two years.
She also, in company with another
not too wealthy girl. went into very
cheap lodgings outside the campus,
cooking their own meals and in every
possible way reducing their expenses.
She earned money, too, by coaching"
backward and lazy pupils. and last fall
she undertook 10 make all the new GYM
nasium suits needed--a pretty heavy
contract, but one which paid well aud
which she accomplished successfully.
In person Miss Martin is slender, wiry
little body, with picturesqueness of
feature that is most attractive Besides
her pluck and energy she was one Of the
highest students in the college, all of
which goes to show what may be
achieved by the woman who makes up
her mind to win. New York Recorder.

If you have been renting q
house in the city, stop moment
and think how much you have
paid out in rent, and If you have

figure out that you have paid out
enough for rent to build as good

your own. Why not put this
money into

in which you viii feel natural
pride, and have permanent and
pleasant home for yourself and
family in your declining years. A
little energy on your part will do
it. Start at once by
BUYING A LOT.
If you are renting farm figure
moment what you are paying out
annually for rent and how soon
this rental would buy farm here.
What you pay out in rent in two
or three years in Iowa or Illinois
would buy equally as good a farm

and come out and buy farm OF
your own and feel the independ-

Don't delay this until next year. as
very much advanced prices for
South Dakota real estate, which is
sure to come, will soon prevent you
from buying, and your opportuni-

and you have not missed the mon
ey the amount of each payment
being so small. Had you not saved
and expended these small amounts

Now that Croker has resigned his

Mrs. Croker is large, handsome wom-
an, with face showing signs of great
mental power, and her children admire
and love her as much almost as does
their quiet, stern father. Despite her
strong nature, however, she was exceed

Mrs. Croker's fondness for domestic
life means fondness for her growing
family. The truth of this may be gauged
from the fact that she has six living
children. Three of the children born to
her are dead. OF the surviving ones four
are boys. The eldest is about 10. Mrs.
Croker herself shops in the mornings in
company now and then with little Flos-
sic, the heroine Of Hugh Grants famous
gift of money, who is getting to be real
ly young lady. The other children are
of course quite young. The family moved
inso their own house recently, but pre-
vious to that lived at the Windsor hotel
On one evening she was the most mag

the most striking feature OF, this partic-

of the two Croker boys present. They
were in full evening dress, az correct
and sober as il fashioned for old men of
the world, although they could not

years respectively.
Mrs. Croker affects light, neutral tints
in dress. She is generally sparing in the
use of jewelry and seldom displays her
diamonds Mrs Croker dimes in the mid
die of the day unless she has guests,
but even then the chief meal il at
o'clock. Her tea is got ready for $3.50
every day. These are her fayorite meal
hours. Mrs Croker is an early riser, as
is her husband Mrs Croker's domestic
| duties are in a measure lightened by a
housekeeper, who is practically steward
ess of the mansion on Seventy fourth
street. There are also three other sery-
ants. Mrs. Croker, among her other re-
tainers, employs sealastress, who is
kept busy for weeks at time. She sews
