TELEPHONES ON FARMS.
Social and Business Life of Rural Com
munities Changing.

. muuAtA0S OhnuShAks
The telephone is Transforming the
social and business life of many rural
communities of the United States. In
no other branch of activity is the spirit
of expansion more manifest. Country
folks like the instrument because it
brings them into novel relationship
with the rest of the world. City peo-
pie who make periodical visits into the
country are sorry to see the innova-
ton, because it takes away something
of the charm of isolation when they
have grown weary of the rush and
fever of urban life. In some country
communities the dream of Edward Bel
lamy is being partially realized. People
sit in their homes, miles from any
church, and listen to the sermon of
their pastor over the wire. The most
elaborate systems of country telephone
| connection are found in the thickly
| populated Eastern states. Where the
houses are close together the cost of
establishing and maintaining a system
is proportionately cheaper for the COM
panies establishing them, hence they
first seek out such places to do bust
ness. Massachusetts is, perhaps the
best field for profitable investment in
this line. In that state, especially in
communities where the rural popula-
ton is mostly well-to-do, the use of
the telephone by farmers is becoming
we'll nigh universal. In the more
sparsely inhabited western states the
telephone people have rarely Ventured
beyond the wayside villages in the in
PRODUCTION of the phone. That is es-
p~ecially true of the central and south
ern divisions of Illinois, but it is pre-
dicted by observant men that, before
the end of another decade, the rich
farming communities of Illinois will
all be in full touch with the outside
world through the medium of the
telephone.-Chicago Record-Herald.

pose of selecting a husband from

greatest courage and endurance in the

Danced for Her Favor.
Not long ago she invited a dozen or
more young warriors to sing and
dance before her, promising that she
would certainly marry the n who
should display the most grace and en-
durance. The infatuated young bucks
nearly danced themselves into the
realms of the happy hunting grounds.
The medicine man, who went to put an
end to the strange contest after it had
lasted three days and nights, found
that only two of the rival lovers were
able to stand on their feet. Wild Bur
falo and Three Killer were still
chanting praises of the maiden as
they circled about her, though they
we're barely able to raise their feet out
of the dust, and their words of love
were uttered in hoarse whispers. The
hayward belle escaped matrimony In
this instance owing to the fact that sht
could not marry both of the braves

north. Originally it was a purely pas
toral and agricultural state, with great
wealth in cattle, horses, mules, sheep,
cotton, rice and sugar, But it sent its
hides elsewhere to be tanned and man
ufactured, its wool to be woven, it's
cotton to be spun; and its people had
to look to other states for their sup
plies of their own products in finished
form. All that is now being changed.
Factories and mills of various kinds
are coming into existence in various
parts of the state, and there seems TO

who were pursuing her when the medi-

This was, however, the last of the
many contests she witnessed among
her s~uitors, for shortly after her rela-
tives held a council in which they de-
cided that she should marry Wild Buff
falo, and began to make preparations
for a great wedding feast. Wild Buff
falo is a promising young chief. He
likes to associate with white people
and has hosts of friends among the
cattle men in Texas, Kansas and Okla

his wedding.
