Then the old Storekeoper opened
both doors.
The old oak bench that had stood
neglected through the long winter, ex-
posed to wind and warping rain. gave
a joyous creak as il felt again on its
broad and knife-hacked back the
weight OF the Patriarch and his
friends, and kicked up its one short
hickory leg with such vehemence as
to cause the Storekeeper to throw out
his hands as though the world had
dropped from under him and he was
grasIing at a cloud for support.

Ever since spinning was a type OF

there are women who insist that the ex.

is greater than the original cost and that
in the end light woolens or summer silks
are more economical This is a mistaken

One of the constant attractions to
Jubilee visitors at Salt Lake City was
the handsome new building on West
Temple street now being erected by
the Oregon Short Line Railroad as u
home for their general offices. The
structure is conceded by all to be the
model railroad building of the West
TO conduct the business of a great
road like the Oregon Short Line with
its 1900 miles of tracks requires host
of departments each with its chief, his
assistants and scores of clerks and ac-
countants. None of these have been
overlooked in this model building.
The structure was erected from plans
drawn by the engineering department
of the road, and each clerk was counted
and place made for him in the prop
er place, that he might perform his
duties with the least amount of neces-
sarv labor and surrounded by conven-
fences that would conduce to his great
est comfort. Forty large and airy of
| flee rooms are required to house all
these employees,
The busiest and most visited of these
departments is that of passenger traf-
fic presided over by General Passenger
Agent Burnley, who in the four months
since the segregation of the road from
the Union Pacific, has made for him
self a reputation that stamps him as
one of the best passenger men in the
country.
The passenger department is making
an enviable record as being unsurpass-
ed by any western road in point of
comfort and quick time. With its
connections the Short Line has recent
/ ~ reduced the time between Denver
and Portland and the Sound about
twelve hours. In view of the heavy ira
vel toward the KlondylSe gold fields of
Alaska. reached only from this section
by the Short Line, this improvement
has been doubly appreciated.
The system is to be extended by a
line to the rich Deep Creek country in
Nevada, which will eventually reach
the coast at Los Angeles. Plans have
already been prepared and are now be-
ing reviewed by the eastern officers
and directors of the company, and work
will commence very soon.
