POO BAHS OF TRAVEL.
The General Passenger Agents and Their
Services to tie Public.

'A-
General passenger agents know what
1t costs to 90 anywhere, remain there
any length Of time and come back by an
other route. They are, in short, the Pooh
Bahs of the realm of travel. Without
them the average human being with a

be as a blind nan in a crowded, unfa-
miliar thoroughfare, as a ship without
a rudder OR a bird of passage deprived

without the ever present folder" and
its impartial, never overdrawn claims
of superiority for the line to which it
owes its existence. Life in it would in
deed be without sufficient compensation.
The art of advertising was an unknown
quantity until the general passenger
agent came upon the scene and with his
into bright, realistic something's. TO
him the steepest grade and the sharpest
curve are of little consequence. Grades
and curves and distances that have de-
fed the skill Of superior and engineer
disappear before the morning sunlight.
Under his manipulation ponds become
lakes, hills grow to be mountains, groves
expand into forests, rills swell into riv-
ers, and all that has been thought un-
interesting, or worse, suddenly bursts
upon the world as a ching of beauty
and a joy forever"

to notice and to popularity innumerable

would have "blushed unseen" but he

an expenditure Of time and exertion and
expense insignificant in its proportions
when compared with that of years gone
by. He is ever watchful of the needs

tween the traveller and the railway or

The Millionaire's Eagle Eve.

Another story illustrative of the daily
life of a Chicago millipnairo NAV help
to explain why some people have more
money than others.
This millionaire invited a visitor
from another city to meet him at a GER
tain hour and accompany him to the
stOckyards, whore he has large interests.
The millionaire rode up in a sidebar
buggy somewhat the worse for mud and
wear, drawn by a shaggy but active
horse. He explained that before starting
for the yards he would have to 20 to one
of the large banks down town, as he
was on the board which regulated loans,
and he had to pass III an application
for a loan Of $500, 600.
They stopped in front Of tho bank.
and the rich man hurried in and re-
manned several minutes. He came out
on q run, and they started rattledy bang
for the stOckyards and Packingtown.
When they arrived and were entering
the packing house, they saw an old man
sorting out into barrels q heap of bones
and fatty remnants. The bones were
trimmed and put into one barrel and
the flesh and fat into another barrel.
The millionaire owner Of the place
walked over to the workman and began
asking questions. Then he drew off his
coat, rolled back his shirt sleeves to the
shoulder and began rummaging among
the bones. He found several which had
not been properly stripped, and the
workman received a scolding which he
will remember all his life.
The stripping Of those bones was Just
as important as the l~oaning of $500, 600.

WINTER WINDOW GARDENS.
Bulbs That May BE Grown Success
fully by Enthusiastic Amateurs.

FULLY ny EnthuSlast1c Amateurs.
No other plants available for window gar
dens yield SO generous a return for the
slight care they require as those with
Dubious roots, writes Carroll Watson Ran
kin in the Ladies' Home Journal No other
plants are so fascinating or so beautiful, or
so easily grown. Most bulbs will thrive
and produce an abundant harvest of glo-
rious bloom in temperature that would
reduce geranium to a state of chronic
invalidism, yet many people have an idea
that it is difficult matter to grow them
without greenhouse. That Is a mistake
All one needs is little common sense-and
the bulbs Bulbs should be ordered early in
the fall The Bermuda Easter lily and the
freesia should be planted in August If they
are wanted for the holidays. All other
bulbs should be ordered early In September
and planted at intervals. After potting the
bulbs in good garden soil they must be
placed III the dark to make roots. This is
of the utmost Importance. A dark, cool
cellar is the best place. but dark closet
or cupboard, or even a bureau drawer,
will do nicely. The soil must be watered
occasionally-the aforesaid common sense
will tell you how often--and the pots must
remain in the dark for at least four weeks
1t will do no harm to have them there for
three or -four months, provided they are
not allowed to dry out.
There are a number of bulbs that may be
grown successfully by the enthusiastic
amateur, which, If given proper care and
treatment. may be relied upon To furnish
flowers for Thanksgiving. Christmas, New

Three New Women and Another.

without any perceptible reluctance, but
what put that idea in your head, mother?"
Mrs. Simpson was speaking about them
today. Why says she, Mrs Oldkind,'
says she, your daughters are those new
women everybody's talking about now.
There's Mary studying to be a doctor at a
medical college, and Martha hard at work
in a law school and Abigail prominent in
woman suffrage and temperance reform.

She wants to take everything in sight,
that's certain. Let me see, Martha's ex-
pense check is due tomorrow, isn't it? It
was hundred dollars last time, and don't

ducing bills! There's a new woman for you

Yes, mother" her husband said with
sigh as he added little column of figures

women are wonderful creatures. They can

to paying 'em, there's nothing perceptibls

From Garden and Forest.

From Garden and Forest.
At a church festival a few years ago the
ornamental value of ono of our commonest
wild flowers was shown. One end of the
large hall was shut in by a rustic fence
deliberately decorated with vines, roses and
a mass of creamy-white flowers that were
wonderfully dainty in their effect. On the
tables inside We're offered for sale bouquets
of many kinds of rare flowers, and con-
spicuous among them by it's delicate love
illness were. cymes of the same creamy
white blossoms. What do you call them?"
asked gentleman, lifting artistically
arranged cluster from vase of sparkling
glass. "Sambucus canadensis," answered
the young girl in charge, with faint, mis-
chievous smile dimpling the corners of her
mouth, named from an ancient musical
instrument that was made from the wood"
And elder blossoms they were, fragile and
sweet as the choicest exotics there.
