if this is true, that the necessary
permission will be given. In that
region are some of the most valu-
able coal deposits in the south
west as we'll as some of the most
valuable mineral deposits; and if

it something must soon be done.
That country is too valuable to lie

RelIn Mt Eighty.

Some years ago there was an old lady
In one of the Southern capitals who not
only wore decollete ball dresses at 80,
but actually possessed the lovely neck
and arms which they require. She was
most innocently vain, and no wonder,
for she was immensely fiattered, and
her townspeople valued her charms far
above those of her young and more
beautiful rivals. She had curious way
of preparing for a ball, which our mod
ern fashionable women with their null
utudinous engagements would find diff
ficult to emulate. The morning before
she proposed appearing in full regalia
she would take brisk walk, and re-
turn in time for a midday dinner, after
which she remained quiet with her
work until about or 4 o'clock, when
she would retire to her bed partaking
of some light refreshment at the tea
hour, until it was time to dress for
her ball. Then she would get up, take
a bath and make the most elaborate
toilet. All the household regarded these
preparations in the light of solemn
rites, and would never have dreamed
of laughing at them in any way. Her
appearance was a triumph, never fail
ing to excite the greatest admiration
and adulation.-New York Ledger.

He who truly honors the past cannot
afford to despise or overlook anything
that has an upward and onward ten
dency, or that carries to further head
way that which has already made so
much advancement. If the eonserva-
tive man points to the fallaey of much
that is attempted, to the mistakes and
blunders of zeal without knowledge,
and even to the seeming injury caused
by unfortunate experiments, we can
only reply that such things have always
been to a greater or less degree the nc
compartments of a transition state, and
are but the light chaff which is soon
blown away, leaving the good and
heavy grain for future service.

Vanity's Penalty.

In a well-known New York hostelry
there is a certain ebon-hued waiter

hours consists of promenading the

tation of the prevailing fashion as his
means and state of enlightenment per-
NIT. A cigar and smart walking stick
are indispensable adjuncts of his street
toilette.
A guest of the hotel, having become
possessed of a box of perhaps the most
execrable cigars to which match was
ever applied, bestowed them by way Of
a "tip" upon the delighted darby.
A few days later, in response to the
donors friendly inquiry as to their mer-

How an Officer stood the Test cf Bee
lief IN FataIlsm.
In the days Of the "old army" on the
frontier when military posts were
sometimes hundreds Of miles from any
civilized place, there was little to do
in the way of amusement in the winter
time, when the post was snowbound,
and it was then that the reputation the
army has for card playing and drink
ing was gained. And Il is true that
great deal OF both was done Mt that
time.
1t was in these days TINT an event
transpired that showed that the prlnci-
pal actor had the courage of his con-
yictions, and that he was most certain
~ born under a lucky star. 1t was
after very "wet' stag dinner party,
and all had partaken most freely of
the wine, and, strange as it may seem,
the subject that came up for discussion
was the Mohammedan religion. The
Mussalmans believe in fate. To them
mans fate is written above, and the
time of his death is set, and nothing
can advance 1t. Well, this belief had
been discussed long and earnestly. The
pros and cons had been gone over at
length, till one officer wanted to know
of what use was reason If every one
was born with a tag of destiny at
tached One officer finally arose and
said there was no use of discussing
/ the matter any further; the only way
was to make a practical test of the
question, and that he would give him
self as a subject. Could a man will
fully dispose Of his life when the fatal
moment had been chosen at his birth
/ from above?
He could get no one to try the ex-
pertinent on him. Finally a wager
was made.
''Who will pay you i'll lose" said the
subject, as he drew his pistol and
showed that It was loaded. He placed
the pistol against his temple and pulled
the trigger. The pistol missed fire.
"a joke" yelled the crowd.
The fatalist smiled, and, recocking
the pistol, aimed it with a steady hand
at the clock on the wall. He fired, and
the bullet crashed through the center
of the dial.
Apologize to me now" he said. q

A Queer Vermont TownsbiD.

In Windsor County, Vermont, is
about as queer town as there is in the
United States. Its name Is Baltimore,
and 1t possesses little of interest save
a history in which none of it's inhab-
itants express the slightest pride. Bal
tlmore Is fairly old, as American towns
60, having been set off from Caven-
dish and organized in 1893. 1t then had
275 presumably ambitious and hopeful
inhabitants, but every census taken
since then has revealed a steady
growth-downward In 1900 the pace
had lost one citizen, and the subsequent
record stands as follows: In 1910, POI
inhabitants; 1920, 204; 1880, ITO; 1910,
1876; 1850, 124; 1860, 116; 1870, SO; 1881,
II, and 1890, Ga. To-day the number is
80, and one of the 50 spends his winters
in the Soldiers Home at Brattleboro'.
Nothing ever happened in the town,
not even a crime, and it has no distin-
guished sons or daughters. The houses
are scattered over the territory includ-
ed within Baltimore's limits, nowhere
forming anything like village, and
there is no store, no church, no post
office, nor even a cider mill. The peo-
pie are prosperous enough, as Vermont
farmers define prosperity, but they
keep moving away whenever OppOr-
tunity offers, and nobody ever moves
in. 1t is twenty years since wedding
took place there.-Boston Evening
