Seven Principal Routes.

1t is well-known fact that the c., NJ.
q st. 7. Ry. system offers a great many
different routes between Chicago and st.
Paul and Minneapolis. Its main line be.
tween those points is especially well known
as the route over which runs the famous
Pioneer Limited" and the Government
Fast Mail Train. There are six or seven
other routes over a number of which are
run through coaches and sleeping cars,
which are almost as direct as the principal
main line.
These various routes traverse the most
interesting and attractive sections of Hi
nols, Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota, in
Guiding the celebrated Lake Region" of
Wisconsin, and cross the Wisconsin river
at the famous "Dells," where is the most
picturesque scenery in the Northwest. The
main line and several others include from
$50 to 300 miles of romantic and picturesque
scenery along the Mississippi river On
these various lines are located the most i'm
portant towns and cities in the Northwest.
Both one way and special excursion tick.
cts between Chicago, St. Paul and Mime.
apoliss. are honored via any one of these di.
rect lines.
The teachers attending the National Edu.
cational Convention at Minneapolis will ap-
preciate and take advantage Of this fact as
they can have a choice of routes going and
returning.

HOW CHEAP BAKING POWDER
IS MADE,

The Health Department of New
York has seized quantity of so-called
cheap baking powder, which it found
in that city. Attention was attracted
to it by the low price at which it was
being sold in the department stores.
Samples were taken and the chemist
Of the Health Department reported
the stuff to be ian alum powder"
which analysis showed to be composed
chiefly of alum and pulverized rock.
The powder was declared to be dan
gerous to health, and several thou
sand pounds were carted to the offal
dock and destroyed.
1t is unsafe to experiment with these
so-called cheap" articles of food.
They are sure to be made from alum.

baking powders, the high class, cream
OF tartar brands are the most eco
nomical, because they 60 farther in

Fred Tieman and Miss Rosa Beard
were on their way to farmhouse
near Evansville, Ind, to be married.
In going there they had to cross
Cypress pond, shallow stream, but
by recent rains increased until it was
nearly mile wide.
In the middle of the pond the horse
stumbled and the bridal couple were
thrown into the water, which was
nearly up to their necks.
The harness was pulling the horse
under, but Tieman bravely held up
the animals nose while he cut him
loose from the wagon.
Then, clinging to the horses tail
and scraps of harness, the young
couple were rescued from their pre-
dicament by letting the horse swim
out.
They were landed safely, but the
wedding was postponed to give the
parties a chance to quiet their
nerves.

Danger in Use of Lyddite.

The extraordinary effect of lyddite
has been revealed by the statement
that during recent experiments with
the hulk of the old battleship Belle
Isle shells containing that explosive
refracted fragments upon the attack
ing vessels, which were 300 yards dis
tant. Other fragments dropped close
to gunboat situated 1000 yards
abeam of the line of fire. The deduc-
ton drawn is that when lyddite is
used there is danger for a friendly
vessel at least 1000 yards away. The
Outlook compares lyddite with a
boomerang, and points out that to
be of any service it must be dropped
right on board hostile vessel, as, IF
the projectile does not hit the right
place it will fly back and Stay tn

Great Increase Shown In the Exports
of the Products of the American
Farms.
The department. of agriculture has
issued a statement of the foreign
trade of the United States in agri-
cultural products. 1t shows that
during the fiscal year 1901 foreign
countries purchased American farm
products to the value of 1852, 900, 900,
representing the largest agricultural
exports in our history. Compared
with the record for 1900 they show
an increase of over $1o0,00O,O0O Our
agricultural imports, on the other
hand, disclosed considerable falling
off when contrasted with the trade
of the year preceding. The various
products of agriculture received
from foreign sources during 1901 had
an aggregate value of 1892, 900, 900,
or s2S,O0o,OO0 less than in 1900. In
comparison with the value of our
agricultural imports, our agricul-
tural exports show the exceptionally

A CIGAR DID THE TRICK.
ment Official His Appointment,
and Changed His Whole Life,

ut is the small things which control
our present actions and ultimate des-
TIMES very Often" remarked a chief
clerk of one of the executive depart
ments, according to the Washington
Star.
"A ten-cent cigar changed my whole
course in life, when the friendship of
senators and representative in con-
gress and their efforts were without
value.
Il had been trying for the place
sought with that alternate hope and
fear which besets all who want posi-
ton under the government, and who
believe one day they have it and the
next they have it not. My funds were
running short, my principal opponent
seemed to have the inside track, and !
had about agreed that had no chance.
One evening as l was wandering
aimlessly around in the northwest
waiting and hoping for the results of
tomorrow, as l had resolved to go out
of town on that day unless L received
the position, 1 stepped into one of our
big hotels and bought ten-cent cigar.
AS L was lighting it, an influential
friend who had been heretofore in
different to my cause approached me
in the lobby, saying:
am. going to get you that place.
l thought you had left town. The old
man (meaning the secretary of the
department in which | had hoped to
enter) is upstairs. Stay here; for per-
sonal reasons l shall block the appoint
ment of the other fellow. His senator
has done me dirt; just wait. will be
back in five minutes
1T is superfuous to say that l
waited, and that my hand was trifie
shaky as | let go of the swinging gas
jet with which l had lighted my cigar.
My heretofore 1ukewarm friend re-
turned to the office IN a few minutes.
and with him | assembled to the pres
ence of the big chief. The big chief
said that he was glad to meet me, had
heard all about me; that / was Just
the man whose peculiar aptitude made
me fitted for the place in which he in
tended to install me, etc, but l knew
in my own heart that if 1 hadn't
stopped to buy that cigar, and if the
senator backing my opponent hadn't
done my influential friend dirt the
big chief would never have discovered
those remarkable qualities of mine.
Now for the sequel, as this is true
story: My opponent, becoming dis
gusted, went to New York, entered the
practice of law, married a wealthy
woman, and makes to-day thousands
where | make hundreds of dollars.
And the question remains, would 1 to-
day have been better off if | had
bought that cigar elsewhere and left
town the next day?"

AN ELEVATOR GIRL.
The Only One I'm New York City Runs

The Only One In New York City Runs
the Car in a Training school for
Nurses.
Margaret Donnelly, who has the
unique distinction of being the only
girl who runs an elevator in New
York, if not in the world, the other
day told reporter how she did it.
You just pull the rope, that's ALL"
she explained, with smile, then up
you go. Of course, it's simple mat
ter to come down."
Margaret is assisted in her duties
at the Margaret Fahnestock training
school for nurses by Katie O'Connor,
who is also becoming quite an expert
in running the car. Margaret's story
is as follows:
Perhaps l am a real new woman,
but L never realized it before to-day.
i thought there were lots of girls
who run elevators, but it seems that
1 am almost alone in my profession.
81 have been running the elevator
here for five months. OF course, I
had to learn how to do it. At first l
was timid, but 1 soon got used to it
all. Sometimes brighten the people
who come here to visit. They stand
In the elevator and look for the boy.
OF course, they think I am one of the
nurses, but when slam the door and
pull the rope they get pale and look
half frightened out of their wits.
But I would not hurt anybody for
the world.
at seems to come natural to me to
run an elevator, and l wonder that
more girls don't take it up as a pro-
fession. The passengers wouldn't
have so much to fear then, for wo-
men are more careful than men or
