DO YOU ECONOMIC =?
How TO do it Without Being Made En-
tirely Miserable.

'Thcre are all so,ts Of ways of economic
ing" remarked Mrs. Pipkins, who VIA.

mood. Some methods are as llncOnlfort

worst pos ible sort He gives up his glass

result is that he feels the grind of poverty
very hard indeed and gets exceeding cross
over it,
j should think that wine and cigars
where the natural things to give up first

mpson, who is not a philosopher
Natural. Why, call it simply ridicu-
lous-unlcss one were really in want.

endurahlc. Well have always sympa-
thlzed with that man. When want TO
plan economies always provide myself
with box of French candies, and then !
sit down and think real hard about what
can be given up without discomfort.
Once we found oul income somewhat
reduced, and that dear silly old man of
mine Immediately began to make himself
wretched by giving up his little luXuries.
| stood it for several days until he sug-
sestcd that we had better give up desserts,
to which he is exceedingly partia and he
ordered box of his fayorite cigars and a
of candy and settled down for long argu-
ment
CHOW did it end? oh showed Mr..
lipkins on paper that by sending away one
of the servants and wearing last years
CLOTHES we could have our desserts and
little extravagances and really not feel so
horribly poor, after all, We need not feel
obliged to save car fares at the expense OF
our legs, as some people | know always do
when they economize. Really the most
heartrending and temper spelling way OF
saving is that which keeps up appearances
at the cost of comfort.
Eyes know you think me horribly
extravagant because I do not count my
pennies, but Just there lies the secret of not
feeling poor. To have small income is a
very endurable hardship if only one keeps
down the big expenses so as not to have 10
deny oneself the trifles. Like Les petites
mi.eries de la vie humaine,' which we are
assured on very good authority are the
hardest ones to bear, it is the little pleas
ures that make life enjoyable. Life is made
up of little things. To have one big econ
omy is a bore, of course, but to refrain
every time you want glass of soda water
or a cigar or car fare is constant source
of irritation, and very bad for the temper,
| am sure.

Hamlet and Lear he is ignorant of the
greater tragedy Of Job. The writer to whom
have Just referred says: "With the single
exception Of humorous literature, for which
the Hebrew temperament has little fitness,
the Bible presents as varied an intellectual
food as can be found in any national liter
ature." But surely there is no need Of
excluding from the fair picture of the
Bible even the element of the humorous.
The Bible is pervaded by tone OF lofty
seriousness, but it would be veIy strange
II that sense of the homogeneous which
charactcrizes the genius of the Hebrew
people should be absent from the finest
expression of that genius. We must not
forget that it is that sense of the incpngru-
Gus which is the matriX of the higher range
and type of the humorous. And it is this
sense which furnishes one of the unerrng
tests of truth. Lowell speaks of it as that
modulating and restraining balance wheel
which we call a sense Of humor." Let
anybody read the terrific description Of the
prophets of faal Here is humor ~ very
grim type, it j. true. Let him read the
exquisite fable Of the trees OF IT, field
choosing a king. 1t is one Of the most
delicate satires in any literature. Then
let him search the book of Proverbs, where.
he will see the electric flashes of pure wit,
used for the illumination of trutn. The

LITERATURE OF THE BIBLE
II is Full of Wit, HumOr and Poetry as
Well as Wisdom and Law.

A recent writer has described the Bible
as "a literature smothered with reverence. >
\ reverence, which, while it is genuine
and profound really stands in the way
frequently of a knowledge and appreciation
of the Bible as the literature of a great race
We have been so used to regarding the
Bible as the text book of religion that we
sometimes forget the appeal it makes to
the intellectual nature, to the imagination,
to the sense OF beauty and the elevated
taste. To think OF the book of Jonah, for
instance, as the record OF historical fact, is
as surely to lose the true sense of its charm
as it would he to put the pigments OF the
Sistine Madonna under a microscope to
search for the secret of Raphael's inspira-
ton. This is the depressing mistake which
men like DR.. Talmage and Col. Ingersoll
make respecting the supreme expression OF
the literary as we'll as the religious genius
of great race. Mr.. Talmage treats the
Bible as if it was Chinese puzzle or what
the children call "dissected map" Rid
den by the theory that the book is unit
of theological teaching, he sacrifices it's
beauty as a botanst tears rose bud to
pieces, searching for doctrinal identity.
He loses the grandeur of the peerless poem
of the creation in Genesis while he is striv
ing to show, from scientific data, how
much light might have existed before the
sun was born; while Col. Ingersoll stands
by and makes delicious fun of the process.
But Mr.. Ingersoll has been educated in the
same vicious school of thought, and is just
as densely ignorant of the real claim of the
Bible upon the worlds admiration. The
poetry, the wisdom, the philosophy, the
dramatic, epical and lyric beauty of the
book are all lost upon him. He can admire
the Shakesperian sonnets; he is insensible
to the Psalms of David. He loves the
"Cotter's Saturday Night; he can not ap
preciate the exquisite story OF Ruth. lie

Where the Aged and Inhrm arc Cared

Of Her Charges.
(F'om The P.ouidsncc, X. L., JournaI.)
Somewhat removed from the city of Prov
idence, on the main hisa ~ay to Pawtucket,
stands that magnificent charitable insttu.
ton known as the Home for the Aged of the
pany of sweet faced and soft voiced Sisters
care for the old and the infrm who are
unable to care for themselves.
Mother Aurlia preSides over this we'll
known institution, and with her associates
ministers to the warts of over two hundred
old people, women and men. An important
feature of the Home is wel-apponlcd
pharmacy in charge Of one of the sisters.
Their chief remedy is good old Pain Her,
which mos. OF the old foIk' used when they
were children and which now cures the pains
and aches incidental to their declining wears.
As is to be expected, the aged inmates Of
the Home are in constant need of medical
attention, ",thnugh, 50 carefully are they
tended, few are rarely sick enough to be in
the hospital wing at any one time. But all
of them are subject to the many disabilities
of old age, and so Pain-killcr has come
to b. a remedy of almost daily use
Mother turrla SAYS that Pain-Killer has
quite superseded thcdrugs and prescriptions
for use among tie old people. When the
limbs twitch with rheumatism the fair
sister in charge of the pharmacy gives them
a massage with pnre Pain-KilIer. When
the old men and old women suffer from
their many stomach troubles little Pain
Killer with VT + and sugar offers certain
and quick relief When the venerable
heads are rackcd with pain, Pain-Kill Her is
again put to service promptly. The old
people love il aud r"y upon it, They tes-
titv that its use exf"rnallv is quickly cffica-
cious. and int "nally, is unaccoEpanied by
any after III "t''' + which, at their age,

the lowest bidders, but they acted simply
as a go-between, and, if they had been
awarded the contract, the several thou
sand dollars to be paid in wages would
have gone to n of the Twin Cities,
never to return. The walls of the Fargo

loud and prolonged; but, almost without

Record-as we'll as every other Slope
newspaper, all of whom can bear testi-
mony to uniform kindness and courtesy
on the part of the publishers of the Slope
daily-is heartily glad that the Bismarck
TRIBUNE was the successful bidder. It
is an institution that has been worth
more to the state than a hundred such
firms as Walker Brothers. 1t has one of
the most completely furnished printing
establishments in the northwest. Espe-
cially is this true in the matter of body
type, such as is required in book print
ing. 1t has paid taxes on that material
year after year, besides putting out thou
sands OF dollars for wages, and it would
have been a manifest injustice to have
allowed the job to 60 to some outside
firm from which neither taxes are re-
ceived by the state nor wages by our citi-
zens.-Emmons County Record.
In awarding the contract for printing
the new code to the Bismarck TRIBUNE
Company, the commissioners did right.
1t would AVE been a disgrace to the
state to have sent this work to st. Paul
or Minneapolis. Doubtless the state
could have saved-in one way-by going
outside; but it is much more to be de-
sired TO pay out 50, 1000 in wages to labor
within the state and to u home
ndustry.-Dickinson Press.
The printing of the codes is to be done
by the Bismarck TP1BUNE. The work
will all be done in the state, and we have
no doubt but that it will be we'll done.
We are of the opinion that the commits
sioners acted justly and fairly in award
ing the contract.-Walsh County Record.

NOrthe Pacific Finances

IL
1t is reported from New York that the
Northern Pacific receivers will soon SUBJ
NIT to the court a report of the earn
lngs and expenses Of the property during
the fiscal year, which will show q sur.
plus over operating expenses Of about
so'ooO,Ooo. No such report was made
last year, and the monthly reports which
are made do not indicate the surplus
over operating expenses, ard, if an an
nual report showing the same is to be
issued, 1t will be very valuable. Officials
OF the road belive the surplus for the
year over operating expenses is about
$5,00O,OOO, as reported.
Considering the heavy washouts last
spring, followed by strikes and great
financial depression, this is an excellent
showing and indicates a conservative
handling of the property by the receiv-
ers. 1t will be understood that the sur
