or the other Of these lines IL it could
have topped the 500 in the matter Of
inducements. Certain offers were made
to Mr.. Darlington by representatives
of these roads. But the 500 has in
this country every season a travelling
freight agent whom everybody likes.
Hell gentlemanly and unassuming, and
tries to make it pleasant for people
with whom he does business. He seems
to understand that s.yinegar never
catches flies" He is alert to keep
posted, in the interests of the COM
pany, as to the condition Of the crop,
the probable yield, and the conse-
quent shipments Of grain. He is In
telligent and faithful in every way,
and the settlers hereabouts like to do
him favor whenever they can. His
name is w. a. Cole Well, Mr.. Cole,
Of course, had his finger in the pie in
the matter Of corraling Darlington's
big shipment. The freight rates were
all right, but Mr.. d. wanted to rush
his stock. to market. The Braddock
branch is q new road, and only two
trains q week rum over 1t. Hence, it
was not thought that fast time could
be made this side Of Kuhn. Darlington
wanted an agreement that the stock
should go from Braddock to st. Paul
In sixteen hours. This he obtained. A
sandy engineer was sent up, and the
train pulled ont at such rate as the
Brad dock folks had not yet seen on
the 500 branch. Dugald Campbell
says that it flew past Campbelltown
like the wind, and 1t went twisting
and turning through the Logan county
hills about Lehr like big snake, and
it reached st. Paul In fifteen hours
from Braddock. The 500 will get
practically all the shipments from EN-
mons county this season. And it
ought to have them, for that company
does not fight against the payment Of
Its taxes, and it is noted throughout
the northwest for its desire to keep on
good terms with the people and to nc.
commodate them in every way pos,
sible.

ReMare of Food SampIes..

Quite recently in New York two deaths
occurred from poisoning by the use
of powders sent to the victims by mail.
In Leavenworth, Kans., the other day
nearly every doctor in town was called to
attend the children who had gathered up,
eaten and had been made Ill by samples
of an article left at houses by canvassers
for advertising. purposes.
Alum baking powders have always
beer fayorite articles for this sampling
business. Yet there is nothing more
liable to lead to danger than the practice
of using the various samples of baking
powder left at the door. They are pre-
sen.ed by irresponsible parties. in ap-
pcarance are not distinguisha5le from
arsenic, and, indeed, in Indiana some
time since one package was found, after
it had caused the death of the house
wife. to have been mixed with that
poison
It is safer to refuse all samples of food
or medicine offered at the door. Pure
cream of tartar baking powders sell upon
their merits, and are never peddled or
sampled.
