Farewell to Poverty.

The hard times, often starvation,
that overlook the workmen in Il
large cities during the financial panic
of 1898 and the great strike, have evil
IDENTITY taught them a lesson. for they
are leaving the cities in multitudeS
and going out to till the fields, raise
live stock and wrest from Nature the
boon Of a sure liveIihood-a livelihood
that ig combined with good health, a
happy home and contentment.
In no part of the country has this
movement been more marked than in
Northwestern Minnesota where, with
in the past two years, mechanics, Ia
borers and others have flocked into
the country between ST, Paul and
Duluth in great numbers and taken up
land and L already cleaning pros
perity from the tillage of the soil.
The land lying between these great
cities is remarkably fertile and is ga
pable of supporting several hundred
thousand nor people than are now IN
it. There are at least a million acres
of land in this district that are still
available for settlement and can be
obtained at low prices and on very
easy terms.
A finely illustrated and we'll written
pamphlet describing this country will
be mailed free to anybody who will
send his name and address to Hope

COMPENSATION.

The spreading hills with gentle slope
Lie broadly to the rising sun.
Whose cheering beams of early hope
CaraSs them softly, one by one,
While IN the hollows, gray and low,
Thick mists and shadows heavy lie,
For all the mornings ruddy glow
Has coldly passed the valleys by.
So. hill-tops laugh. while valleys weep
Away the hours of early days,
With sunshine resting on the steep,
And darkness ~shrouding lowly ways,
Till evening hastes and shadows sleep
On every eastward hill,
Then down the slopes the sunbeams
creep,
And raptured wales with gladness
thrill.
To lonely lives, which sadly missed
The early suns inspiring beams.
To valleys morning shadows kissed,
But wakened not from laggard
dreams
To these at eve shall come a glow
OF sunshine DER the happy plain;
a sweeter joy than mornings know
The touch of gladness after pain.

Fashionable h~airdressers seem to
agree that ere long we shall once
more be invaded by the chignon, an
abominatiOn which reigned supreme Il
number of years ago. The invasion
may be beaten off, as was that of the
hoopskirt some time ago, and every
woman with a ~well-shaped head de
voutly hopes that such will be the
case, for the shape of the head is OF
course utterly lost in such a fashion
as this. In England it has already
made considerable Roadway, and the
Eastern anglomaniacs doubtless will
ere long fall into line. Indeed, one or
two women, recently, from the "Other
side" have already been seen in New
York carrying n loose wad of hair
covered with a large net at the back
of the head. Not the smallest of it's
disagreeable features is that in. the
majority of cases it necessitates the
wearing of a quantity of false hair.

The venerable and familiar moral
tale of the bad little boy who offered
the circus elephant a chew Of Tobacco
Is far surpassed in ethical force by the
new and strictly truthful story of
eleven-year-old Harry Manning of
Waltham. Mass. Harry has been
learning to smoke cigarettes, and II
afternoon about a fortnight ago he
was sitting Oh a barrel behind North
rup's grocery practicing, when ne
heard footsteps. Not caring to smoke
in company, he politely dropped his
lighted cigarette into the bung-hole OF
the barrel on which he sat. The state
ment is that when the moral elephant
in the other story received the cheW
of tobacco he seized Tommy, the evil
doer, by the coat collar with the
thumb and finger of his trunk and
threw him harshly out through the
roof of the circus tent. The event in
Harry's case was still more precip-
itous and surprising. The barrel he
sat OH contained naphtha, n re-
iected the lighted cigarette with an
instantaneous burst of emotion which
numbered it's hoops and gave Harry
al the symptoms experienced by the
hoy who stood on the burning deck
| whence all but he had fled. Happily
Harry came down in the same town
shin in which he went up, n was
Identified and is still living with his
! PARENTS. but another time he will droI
his nose into an empty barrel before

The Captain Stood by the Fuse
Leading to the Powder Magazine.
days out we anchored at the mouth OF
the Coanza river.
AS soon as we were well moored the
long boat was lowered and rugged;
100 pairs of handouts and as many
fathoms of small chain and rope were
slowed into her, and the captain, after
giving me instructions and warning
me to guard against snakes, wild
beasts and cannibals, set sail with six
picked men all we'll armed. He pro-
ceeded up river about ten miles to the
slave trading station. And we simply
awaited his return. Late that night
| heard the thud of many paddles and
oars as if a drum was beating time
to the chantlike deep meanings of
men, women and children in the eX-
tremity of mortal agony. Louder and
louder grew the sounds. as nearing
alongside, the phantom-like mass of
hull, spars, rigging and sails and
armed men, lit up by the many deck
lanterns, doomed up before the APP
preaching slaves, when a sudden rustic
went through them and the low signs
and meanings burst into a wild yell:
"Barco Biyundi." ''Barco Bipundi.'

A panic. ensued like that of il herd
of wild animals suddenly confronted
by some dreaded apparition, or de
vouring monster. For Il few minutes
the boats so rocked and surged under
the frantic movements of their III

to see them swallowed up in the cir
cling eddies Of the dark river. one

times to aid and sometimes to threat
