A well-known Philadelphia lawyer
who visits Atlantic City every summer
WAS the recipient one day last week OF
large fish, the gift Of fisherman
whose acquaintance he had cultivated
at the shore. The fish came by express
and was tied up in canvas. The law

which he closed, and then went out tc
keep an appointment
He did not return to his office that
afternoon. and the next day business
called him to New York. and he forgot
all about the fish, which he had intend
ed sending out to his home. He re-
turned from New York suffering from
a severe cold. which confined him to
the house for several days, although
he~was in constant communication
with his ONCE by telephone.
On the fourth day he was told that a
strange. penetrating and decidedly Of
:ensiye odor was permeating the office
and that 1t seemed to come from his
closed desk. II was not until then that
the lawyer thought Of the fish. An Of

house for the key, the desk was opened
and the remains of the fish removed.

IT WORKS BOTH WAYS.

The attention of che buying public
is called to the fact that the best
places to buy are those Ores which
are enterprising and progressive.
They are the ones which are up-to-
date in their stock aud cater to the
tastes and demands of purchasers who
are governed in their desires by the
ever-changing modes and fashions and
by the products of the inventive mind.
They study the popular demands
and set about to supply them. That
is characteristic of the up-to-date
merchant And another characteristic
of the progressive merchant is his ad
vertising. He keeps his name and
business daily before the public in the
advertising columns Of the daily
paper. Whenever he has an especially
attractive line of goods, or when he
makes cut in price on some desirable
article, he let's it be known through
the medium of the press. He doesn t
sit down and wait for trade, he
reaches out after it. Thus he keeps
his goods moving and his stock is al
ways fresh.
Think it over before you go shop
ping. Look over the advertising
columns of The Tribune, and you will
see list of the progressive business
houses of Florence. You will see the
names of the firms who think enough
of your business to ask you for 1t.
They are the merchants who are get
ting the trade, hence they can supply
you with fresh, up-to-date goods.
There is nothing stale on their shelves.
They keep things moving. Just drop
into the stores whose embellishments
you see in the papers, and you will
not have to pass them up and search
around the stale stock Of someone who
simply waits for you to happen into
his store.
And now to the merchant. Don t
you notice that the biggest retail con-
Germs in the city are represented in
The Tribune? Don't you see that
they are reaching out and getting
trade that you are making no effort
to obtain? Don't you know that the
housewives Of Florence read the sdver-
tising columns Of their paper just rs
carefully as they do the news2 Don't
you know that they often send to Dem
yer for goods that you have on your
shelves simply because they had no
way Of knowing the goods could be
procured in your store? Don't you
think you should show enough inter-
est in the buyers of Florence to make
shopping easier for them by letting
them know of the new arrivals of
modish articles, of the latest novelties
and Of special prices you can offer
themy Don't you owe it to your
trade to render them this assistance !?
Don't you owe it to the credit side
Of your ledger to make this slight
effort to increase your businessy
These are just few hints to seller
and purchaser. It will pay the for
mer to advertise, and the latter will
profit by partonizing the merchant

THE FIRST SLEEPING CAR.

The first sleeping car was devised
by Theodore T. Woodruff in 1854. His
first patents were for Improvement in
railroad ear seats and couches," issued
Dec. 2, 1856. At that time railroad
development in America was in its In
fancy, but the tremendous advance
which has since taken place in this,
the greatest of any one interest in this
country, has no parallel in history.
The evolution OF the sleeping car from
Woodruff's primitive design to the
sleepers, for instance, composing the
Pioneer Limited trains OF the Milwau-
kee road, is wonderful in the extreme.
It would certainly seem that the very
perfection of a construction, In point
OF beauty, combined with substantial
comfort, had been reached when this
splendid train was produced by that
progressive company.

Governor White has issued the fol-
rowing Arbor Day proclamation:
In accordance with the custom adopt
ed in this and other states of setting
apart a day for the promotion Of forest
growth, I do hereby designate Friday,
May 8, 1902, as Arbor Day for the
state of North Dakota. I recommend
that appropriate and instructive exer-
cises be held in all our public schools
and that a part of the day be devoted
to the planting of trees and flowers
upon the school grounds. +
I further recommend that an elm
tree be lovingly planted and tenderly
cared for upon the ground of every
school and public institution of the
state in memory of our martyred presi-
dent. William Mckinley. h.

SOURCES or KNOWLEDGE.
You Nay Learn Something From Ev-
erybody YOu Meet.

You May Learn Something ron Ev-
erybody You Meet
One of the most useful success habits
one can form is that Of learning some
thing from everybody with whom he
comes in contact. No information which
a be acquired is too trivial to be ig-
nored. =
Constantly measure yourself with the
men you meet. You will find that every
n can teach you something which you
did not know before and which, per-
haps, you would never have a chance
to learn again if you did not acquire it
from him.
Daniel Webster once made a great
hit in arguing a case before a jury by
repeating a story which he afterward
said he had not thought of since he
heard it fourteen years before. But
Webster was always picking up some
Thing for future use. His famous reply
10 Hayne, the greatest speech ever de-
fvered on the American continent, was
largely made up Of little reserves which
he had picked up here and there in his
reading, from studying men and from
observation.
Many a prominent novelist has COL
lected material for his stories by max
ing notes Of his conversations with
those he has met and by observation.
Charles Dickens got a great deal of the
matter for some Of his novels in this
way.
One young man will 60 to a lecture
and after spending an hour listening to
the helpful, inspiring words Of some
prominent man Will leave the hall or
lecture room without having derived
any benefit from the address. Another
young a will attend the same lee
ture with an ambition to learn some
thing. he will drink in the speakers
sentences as II he were never to hear
such words of encouragement and In.
%spiration again. At the conclusion OF
the address he will determine that he
will make Of his opportunities In
the future; that he will read more,
think more, study more, be more thar,
he ever was before. Such a young man
has a purpose and is determined t.
learn something from everything he
comes In contact with and from every.
body he talks to. The other has no am
bition, does not throw himself Into
what he does, let's his mind wander
hither and thither, SO that he never
wholly understands what people are
saying and therefore never derives any
benefit OF information from those with
whom he converses.-Orison SWEET Mar.

HAVE WOMEN lNTUlTlONH

Shorru Il In Iifaxotuxa : =

One Writer, Says They Have Never
Shown 1t In Literature.
Literature is the final expression Of
human thought. If women can lay
claim to a special faculty Of intuition,
why do they not manifest it in their
writings? Intuition, if it means any
thing, means the faculty that gets
down to the germ Of actions and char.
acteristics and focuses external traits
into a central verify recognizable to
the general public. Now, there are
more female writer's than male. No
woman poet has ever written an in
evitable line, a line that flashes spon-
taneously out Of the unknown and casts
an Illuminating light upon the abyss.
Woman has added practically nothing
to our stock Of familiar quotations.
Take down your Bartlett or your an
thology, and you may be surprised to
find that from Mrs. Browning to Mrs.
Meynell women have never coined a
phrase which has passed into the COM
mon currency of speech. Mrs. Brown
ing has indeed written fine lines, but
nothing Of hers a be said to have be.
come a household word.
Nor has any woman novelist created
any character that is generally recog.
nized as typical. George Eliot has
come closest with her Tito Melema
and Mrs. Poyser. You would appeal
only to the educated few if you de.
scribed a person as a Tito or a Poyser.
But call a man a Don QuiXote, 8
Micawber, a Dogberry, a Falstaf, q
Colonel Newcome, a Bilfl, a Parson
Adams or Bob Acres, call a woman 8

and even the illiterate will mentally
classify the individual as you wish him
o. her to be classified. -
"Ah, but" you say, "in real life wo.
men are the true intuitions. They size

I a only testify to my own expert.
ence. I have not found that women's
snap judgments Of character are i'm.
bued with any special verify. They
form likes OF dislikes quicker than a
man does because they are quicker on
the trigger Of conjecture. They can
only be n Of two things, right o,
wrong. If time proves that they arc
right, as they must be in so per cent Of
cases, the right guess is remembered
and treasured up by the slower minded
man as an extraordinary instance OF
intuition. The wrong guess is forgot.
