THE only bumboat woman on this
coast tolls hard on the water
front through the long hours Oh
L the day to the lonely midnight
watch. And then she takes the
last car home.
She has walked through thirty years
of her ufe's busy calendar over pre-
cisely the same rough and cherries
path. and always takes the last car
home. The strange, unpoetical story
of her life is filed with the patient, I'M
firing devotion Of a mothers love,
whose sacrifices are as human as they
are eternal and she makes them for
the child she bore.
Mrs. Burns is the bumboat woman,
and her daughter Mary is the child.
The mothers sacrifice will have its re-
ward her daughter has been gradu-
ated at the Notre Dame Convent, and
next fall she viii go to Europe to fin
ish her musical education. The daugh-
ter she has shaved for will enjoy the
advantages denied to herself
This longshorewoman is the most
Industrious woman IN San Francisco,
and the most economical. By dint of
energy and unequaled frugality she
has accumulated. small fortune-all
made by peddling at the water front.
She now owns some Of the most desir-
able property in this city, and the
deeds are recorded in the daughter
name.
This bumboat woman is now nearing
her thTee-score of years. and thirty OF
them she has spent walking UP and
down the water front carrying her
market basket of merchandise and en-
treating the sailors from morning until
night with please buy"

WHAT LIFE HATH.

Life hath its barren years,
When blossoms fall untimely down.
When ripening fruitage fails to crown
The summer toll, when Natures frown
Looks only on our tears.
Life hath its faithless days
The golden promise of the morn,
That seemed for light and gladness
born,
Mean only noontide wreck and scorn,
flushed harp instead of praise.
Life hath its valleys too,
Where we must walk with vain regret
With mourning clothed, with Wild rain
Toward sunlit hopes that soon must
set,
All quenched in plying dew.
Life hath its harvest moons,
It's tasseled corn and purple-weighted
vine,
It's gathered sheaves of grain, the
blessed sign
OF plenteous ripening, bread and pure,
Full hearts for harvest tunes.
Life hath it's hopes fulfilled,
Its glad fruitions, it's blessed answered
prayers,
Sweeter for waiting long whose holy
air,
Indrawn to silent souls, breathes forth
its rare,
Grand speech by Joy distilled.
Life hath its Tabor heights,
Its lofty mounts of heavenly recogni-
ton,
Whose unveiled glories fash to earth,
munition
or love and truth and clear intuition.
Hail! mount of all delights.

WINTER HOUSE PLANTS.
The Fragrant Roman Hyacinth and
How 1t Should Be Cared For.

In anticipation of the winter months
no better investment can be made than
in a well chosen collection of winter
blooming bulbs. Reserve the heaviest,
plumpest bulbs for the house and give
them a rich turfy loan with the usual
admixture of coarse sand to secure
porosity and add body to the compost.
FTeesias crave early planting and
should be potted during late August OF
early September to have them in bloom
at Christmas time. For a succession,
plant at intervals of three weeks OH
through October. The flowers will he
much larger and richer if a little de-
cayed manure be added to the compost
above-so that it looks like black
earth. A level teaspoonful of sifted
wood ashes added to a heaping quart
of the admixture will keep it sweet and
friable. Manure may be dispensed
with if the soil be rich in decayed veg
etable matter, as old rotted leaves or
straw. The freesia fairly revels in soil
of this kind. Allow six of them-eight
small ones-to five-inch pot, planting
them in circle and covering with an
inch of soil. This depth of planting
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1899-12-14

spade several times during the grow
ing season while others would SOW to
grass, and top-dress with manure dur
ing the winter, while still some others
would allow the trees to take their
chances without manuring. In the
opinion of the writer, good judgment
would determine a modification of
these practices according to circum-
stances, the end to be gained being
vigor sufficient to develop strong,
healthy fruit buds, and carry to matur-
ity fair crop of fruit without any ex-
cessive stimulation of wood growth,
which tends to make the tree cast its
fruit and become more susceptible to
attacks of the blight. In this, soil and
variety must be considered together
For instance, a standard Bartlett on
rich or strong soil, if highly cultivated,
is exceedingly liable to blight; on a
poor soil, uncultivated, it would not
have vigor sufficient to perfect a full
crop of fruit; per contra, a standard
Seckel would be benefited by generous
on a fair soil, and is a COM
parative failure on poor SOIL even with
moderate cultivation, and completely
so If uncultivated. Right here, the
seasons, too, exert 2 manifest influence
and present sometimes a nice point to
the anxious cultivator.-W. H. Cassell

The John NJ. Smyth Co. Have M

The well-merited popularity of the
great mail order establishment of the
John Nj. Smyth Co. of Chicago seems To
have induced INSCRIPTIONS parties to &c
through the country and falsely represent
themselves as sales agents for this house
by thus representing themselves they
have succeeded in imposing upon many
by selling goods and taking cash and
notes from victims who actually believed
they were purchasing goods from the

John Nj. Smyth Co. have no agents and
denounce as frauds all parties travelling
through the country and claiming to rep
resent the firm. The public should be on

victims Of the Edmonton Trail arrived
on the steamer Dirigo to-day. Ac-
cording to J. Reilly Snyder, for eight
cen months a Philadelphia party OF
fourteen was on the trail. Deserted by
their Indian guide, they lost them
selves in the valley of the Shadow, as
they called it, north of Peace River
On leaving them in a boggy, treach-
erous trail, the Indian guides declared
that none had ventured further nortn

the Argonauts The men found their
way to a black or muddy river, which
flows into the Laird. They crossed
this a few miles from it's source, and
wandered into a bleak country to the
north for weeks. Their food supply
became exhausted. Their pack animals
died, and they themselves gradually
lost hopes and energy.
At last they turned south, recrossed
the black river and came to the forks
of the Nelson, above He'll Gate. Here
they lost twenty three horses from
starvation, and had to leave in
swamp a major part of their outfit for
lack of pack animals Another fifty five
days they lived on just what would
keep body and soul together. At length
they reached Sylvester Landing on
Dease River, 25O miles from Fort
Laird. Here, hopeless of ever reach
ing their goal, they turned their faces
southwark again, and following Dease
River to it's source in Dease Lake, made
Telegraph on the Ashcroft Trail, and
came down the Stickeen to civiliza-

Very little resistance was made to the
capture, but from their actions, vlg-
orous watch was necessary 10 prevent
escape. A significant fact is that af-
ter the first approach of the scouts the
suspects held no conversation with each
other, and it was obvious that there was
a preconcerted plan to this effect.
Besides the saddle horses, the men
had two pack horses ari their equip

the three and claims that they are
