How Hetty Green. the famous
fnancier, who enjoys the distinc-
ton Of being the richest woman in
America, has made and kept her
millions will be told for the first
time in the June Ladies Home
Journal. In view of Mrs. Green's
vast wealth, so great that she her
self cannot exactly compute it, the
story of her home life will also be
especially interesting, by reason of
it's extreme simplicity In the
article Mrs. Green tells how she
has bought and sold railroads and
towns, and how she has compelled
political managers to do her bid
ding-showing the enormous pow
er Of money in these golden days.
Her daily life: too, is interesting,
for early and late she is at her
task Of watching her wealth and
eagerly adding to it, being
stranger to almost any other re-
creation. Several pictures of the
woman with millions, made ex-
pressly for the article, will give
additional interest.

well Bud, CESS you better dc
the chores now, kos it is gettin
sorter late. [ brot the sheep from
the parster today and you kin take
over lot of that hay. But be
careful and not let the sheep git
out Of the yard, kos if you do, all
the governors in Kentucky could
MT drive them back again. You
kin climb over the fence OF
through it, whichever you kin do
best. Now hurry up!'
Bud started towards the barn
yard, muttering to himself, 81
wonder did Hank think that [ be
such big fool to cline clear over
that big six-rail fence with hay fer
them darned sheep? Cess they
would git purity lean afore 1 would
do SIGH thing. I'll jist bring that
hay over to the gate and then [
kin open the gate and they won't
any of them sheep try to git by
me, l handled sheep afore I seen
Hank, and I recken I'll let him
see that I did too afore [ be on
this farm much longer
Bud finished the work about
the barnyard with the exception
of putting the hay which he had
brought to the gate, inside the
fence for the sheep. He took off
his hat, whirled it several times in
the air, yelling at the same time.
This caused the sheep to leave the
gate. So he quickly opened the
gate, hauled the hay inside the
fence. then closed and locked the
gate. He took the hay and was
scattering it about the pen, when
he saw, to his horror, Hanks old
black ram standing not far away
with his head down and apparent
ly feeling very much offended
because Bud had taken the liberty
of trying to ring in bluff.
Bud quickly came to the con-
clusion that the best thing that
could possibly be done under the
circumstances was to place the
high fence between himself and
Mr.. Ram. But which would be
the quickest way to do this? The
gate was locked from the outside.
The fence was six rails high with
barbed wire On top, the rails close
together. Bud took what he
thought the best way of leaving
the sheep pen and that was by

BUDS STRANGE EXPERIENCE.

crawling through the fence. He
made dive between the rails, but
they were not wide enough apart
to allow him to gain his freedom
so easily. He got his head and
shoulders through, but was unable
to go farther, and being unable to
get back he was stuck.
In all the positions which he
had ever gotten into this was GER
tainly the worst. Stuck between
two rails and a big buck ram be-
hind him. Mr.. Ram sized the sit
uation up and concluded that the
present time is always the best
time, especially in a case of this
kind. Bud was kicking and doing
his best to free himself. but all to
no purpose. Mr.. Ram, as if wish
ing to help Bud out of his strange
position, lowered his head and
came down the yard at full speed.
His aim was good and Bud re-
ceived a jar which made him
think something had come his
way. The ram seemed to relish
the sport, and taking a turn around
the yard he concluded to try Mr..
Bud another round. With low
cred head he made another rush
and landed a solid blow which
Bud said afterwards, "Gee, [ could
see stars and the moon and the
sun all a-shinin' at once" The
ram thought he would just take
another jolt for luck, and as he
did so he sent Bud clear through
the fence. Bud got up, but was
unable to walk for some time. AS
he stood there by the fence rub
bling the sore parts he heard the
girl call him to come to supper.
He managed to walk to the house,
and as he entered the kitchen the.
cook said:
"You must hurry up, Bud; sup
per is waiting for you. Come sit
down here and eat quick for I
want to get my work done up
Bud looked very thoughtfully
at the chair, but he did not wish
to let any one know what had
happened, SO he seated himself,
but as he struck the chair he
quickly bounded up with cry Of
of pain and said, Il don't want no
supper no how" and with both
hands clapped on the wounded
parts he quickly left the room.

Which the following extract is taken:
Fred w. Bushell was one of natures
noblemen. 1t was not his fate to fill
an exalted sphere Of action, but such
work as was set him to DO he per-
formed faithfully, conscicntiously,
ably and with Il high sense of the
responsibility of his position. In prl-
waite life he was the genial friend, the
devoted husband, the exemplary citl-
zen. Such lives as his brighten the
world and add SAVIOR to the salt or
life. His career teaches the lesson OF
unseltisllness, devotion to duty, loyalty
to friends, and trust in high ideals.
And who can doubt that as ne enters
that better land-that distant country
from whose bourne no traveller returns
our Heavenly Father will say to
him: well done, good ana faithful
servant; as thou hast been faithful in
few things I will make thee ruler over
many things. Enter thou into the Joy

Santa Claus At "rhe Big Store"

On Monday Dec. 10th, the Big Store
will open its 21st Christmas celebra-
ton with the old, old story of Santa
Claus and good cheer enacted by Il
real live Santa Claus and train of fun
ny little Brownies
Several weeks ago Gen. Olson issued
orders to the stores artists and dccora-
tors to prepare plans for Christmas
that would surpass anything ever at
tempted i'll the line of holiday attrac-
tons. The children have been kept
in mind from the bcginning-cvcry-
thing has been done with Il view of
pleasing them. In the auditorium over
the arcade entrance is built the Fairy
GrOttO, the treasure home of Santa
Claus where lie works and plans for
the coming Christmas tide. The Santa
Claus here is the genuine arlicle-his
troop of accompanying Brownies with
their athletic tricks will afford endless
amusement for the old and young
The principal decorative piece Of the
arcade is an immense electric column
reaching from the floor to the ceiling
revolving and shedding its many-col.
"rrd rays from the thousands of elcc-
tric bulbs. This feature was the prin-
ripal attraction in the Electricity
building at the Worlds Fair, Chicago.
On the main floor Gen. Olson has
built the most magnificent mechanical
store attraction ever seen in any coun-
try. It's an electric Intcrmural rail
| way running around the entire inc-
rior of the store, sometimes dasling
over miniature trestles, spanning iii
minutive valleys and gorges again
through Fairy Grottos-again whizzing
by turrets and towers on Medrval
Castles and still ut another point stop
ping at Il modern town to take on and
discharge its young passengers. Tho
cars of necessity must be small so the
number of children able to ride will be
limited but the management will make
every effort to accommodate all.
| The entire store will be decorated in
cvergreens and holly and will present
| holiday appearance in every nook
| and corner.
The other attractions will be Gypsy
| Fortune tcllers. Gnomcs and COLLINS,
| music of various kinds.
All this is but a background for tho
holiday goods which will bc shown in
greater variety than ever. The Big
Store will indeed he Santa Claus head
| quarters.
