ILLINOIS CENTRAL
EXCURSION RATES
TO THE
Pan-American Exposition.
AT
BUFFALO.

It was said when the Worlds Fair closed that
this country would not see Its equal in fifty
years. In oil but the space occupied, however,
the Pan-American Exposition OF Buffalo this
year will excel the great show Of 93. This means
that more can be seen In tile same length of
time at the Pan-American. and with less of the
fatigue and WEAKNESS that was unavoidable at
the Worlds Fair.
The exhibits will be varied, interesting and
instructive, and the Improvement in their selec-
ton and the manner In which they are display
ed, due to the experience gained by exhibitions
at the recent great Expositlons will be very
noticeable. In the variety, quality, Ioyelty and
number of Its entertainment features, the Buff
falo Exposition will surpass all others.
There are different rates for tickets with DIFF
ferent limits, and II you expect to visit Buffalo,
and will send your address to the undersigned,
the rates now in effect will be quoted you, and
you Will be kept advised Of any changes.

victoria Got Her rrimroses

"The following little anecdote, told
by Queen Victoria herself, will show
her independence of character" says n
writer in The Century. Every fond of
primroses and finding none In the
royal gardens, she sent word to have
some planted. The gardeners, the
queen said, made many objections, and,
finding shortly afterward that her
wishes had not vet been carried out,
she dispatched n messenger inquiring
the reason. 7 suppose Queen Anne
had none she said, so they did not
think 1t proper for me to have any,
but sent them word promptly that
Queen Victoria would have some-and
she did,"

probably be novelty to you, but which
will tell you something about women,
and prove the truth of my assertion,
that they have always had their share.
1t is EMIT led the book of "Genesis." 1t
is the first recorded history of the one
who was entitled to be called the "frst
lady of the land" We read in that
book that the Creator looked upon all
things that he had made and said that
they were good and He rested He then
made man and said that he was good
and lie rested, He then made woman
out of man; but the book of Genesis
does not tell us what His remaks were,
or that lie rested, in fact am prepar-
ed to say that there has been no rest for
mankind ever since. This book of Gen:
esis also tells US that she was made af-
ter man and we are here to say that she
has been after him ever since. 1t also
says that she was called woman because
she was taken out of man. Twenty
centuries look down upon us and what
she has taken out of man Is a
plenty. She has onr respect, she has
our love, she has all our money, and
in these days of tailor made garments
she has nearly all our clothes, and we
are moved to wonder what next; yet in
spite of all this,
Our house she enters, there to be light,
4 Shining within when all without is night.
| A guardian angel DER our life presiding,
| Doubling our pleasures, our cares dividing.
Winning us back when mingling In the throng
