Expansion In Northern Wisconsin.

The wise poor man who bought
a farm on easy payments, or the
wise manufacturer who erected a
factory in Northern Wisconsin a few
years ago, when times were not as
prosperous as they are now, are
reaping their reward. Northern
Wisconsin is feeling expansion in
the truest sense of the word OPP
portunities have not passed by any
means. There are still thousands of
acres OF rich hardwood timber lands
awaiting the settler as well as the
manufactures, which can be obtained
at low figures and on easy terms.
Good roads, fine school houses and
other improvements are increasing
and cultivation is progressing. The
plentitude of iron ore, clay, kaoliD,
mari and timber lands supplied the
wants Of everybody.
Transportation facilities are un-
excelied. The Wisconsin Central
Ry., strictly Badger State Road,
pierces the rich northern portion of
the state, Offering excellent transit
service to the markets of the world.

A CLEVER
NAKE UP.
Story Of a
Fancy Dress Ball.

Henry Apps of Hoxton completed
the fixing of the wires on the lawn
of Hasleigh court. He looked up al
the dim light in the dressing room and
chuckled softly as he bent the last yard
of wire.
"a trip in time" says Mr.. Apps,
"saves nine"
He threw the rope ladder gently in
the air, and at the first effort it caught
the projecting nail.
"Once on board the lugger,' quoted
Mr. Apps facetiously, as he mounted
the rope ladder, land the girl is mine. "
He opened the window very gently
and soon stood inside the dressing
room. Near the table in the corner of
the room was an iron safe.
"Well, Pm jiggered" exclaimed Mr..
Apps. He loosened the flaps of his fur
cap and mopped his brow with the
back of his hand. "Well, I'm jigger-
ed! If they 'aven't been and left the
key in it for me. l might have saved
myself a lot Of trouble if I'd a know
ed"
Mr.. Apps swung open the heavy door
of the safe and listened to the music
down stairs. Young Lady Staplehurst
was giving, as Mr.. Apps very well
knew, a dance, fancy dress dance,
on her return from the continent after
her term of widowhood.
"I'Il just see first of all,'' he said,
chat the coast is absolutely clear, and
then-then for bagfAl."
Henry Apps stepped out into the
broad passage. He slouched, with his
jimmy sticking out of his capaclous
side pocket, a few steps toward the
stairs. Suddenly girlish figure turn
ed the corner.
.'Bless my 'artY' cried Mr.. Apps.
'eWhy, how do you do?" said the
young lady, stepping forward. She
gave soft laugh that was very pleas
ant. "This is really delightful. Do
you know, l recognized you in spite of
the costume?'
She held the hand of Mr.. Apps for
a moment, causing that gentleman to
gasp for breath, and called one of the
maids.

A FRAGM EMIT.

Sweet as the dewfall, splendid as the south,
Love touched with speech Boccaccios golden
mouth;
Joy thrilled and filed its utterance full with song,
And sorrow smiled doom that wrought no
wrong.
A starrier luster Of lordlier music rose
Beyond the sundering bar of seas and SHOWS
When Chaucer's thought took life and light from
his,
And Englands crown was one with Italy's.
Loftiest and last, by grace of Shakespeaces word,
Arose above their quiring spheres a third,
Arose and flashed a;se ALTERED, songs deep sky
Saw Shakespeare pass in light, in music die.
No light like his music, man, might give
To bid the darkened sphere, left songless, live.

and feared it might give an inoppor

open, and the diamonds were waiting
for him. He had noticed with satisfac.
ton that Lady Staplehurst was wear.

The large ballroom was very full. A
small covey of brightly dressed young
people flew toward the young hostess
to complain of her temporary absence
from the room, and a broad shouldered

took up her card with something Of an

"Well, I've got kind of hidea," said
Mr.. Apps. Look 'ere. You put this

Mr. Apps found himself getting quite
excited in the explanations that he
gave It was a new sensation to meet
one who showed an intelligent interest
in his profession, and he could not help
feeling fattered. Looking Up, he saw
the gondolier. gazing at him.
"He don't look 'appy, that chap" said
Mr.. Apps.
''Will you excuse me for one mo-

"Wot are you going up to?'' he sal
apprehensively.

While Lady Staplehurst was making

Lady Staplehurst hurried toward the
doorway. A murmur of amazement
went through the room as the guests
saw a new arrival in the costume Of a
police constable accompanied by man
in plain clothes. Mr.. Apps, thinking
over his exploits, gazing abstractedly
at his boots, regretting their want of
polish, did not see them until the plain
clothes man tapped him on the shout
