THE WISH BONE,

She was a long time with thinking
what her wish should be.
He Almost grew impatient
So long considered she.
For she had many wishes,
And he had only one,
1t took him but moment
To get his wishing done.
But, by and by they pulled 1t
And Fortune was his friend
He was a happy mortal,
For he had the longest end.
But she was not unlucky,
For when the reckoning came
It somehow dawned upon them
That they had wished the same

There are but few people in Kali
ispell who have an adequate idea of
the size of the pay roll that is paid
out in tnis city every month by the
Great Northern Railway company.
The division offices here have charge
of the issuance of the pay checks
and while the amount disbursed
covers the entire Kalispell division it
is safe to say that the larger per-
centage of the money is received in
Kalispell, and the larger portion goes
to the merchants and business men
of this city, and thus aids in the ma
terial progress and prosperity of the
city.
1t is a habit with some people to
sheer at the railroad employees and
consider them in a class just a little
lower than the ordinary run of hui
manity. Unfortunately, that idea
prevails to certain extent in Kals-
pell, but the people who think that
way do not think of the obligations
they are under to the objects of
| barely concealed contempt. For the
month of June alone, the Great North
ern Railway company disbursed in
salaries to the employees of the Kalis-
pell division over $4,000, or to be
exact, $54, 100, and it is safe to say
that over one-halr of that large sum
| was SDant in this citV
This covers the full list of EN-
ployes, yard men, train men, section
men and Office employees, and shows
how much the prosperity of Kalispel
is dependent on the payroll of the
Great Northern.

OPPOSED TO A CHANGE.
Intended Transfer of Agent VanSant
Creates Opposition.

F. Van SAINT for many years the
popular and efficient Great Northern
station agent in Kalispell, received
word this week that it was the COM
pany's intention to transfer him to
Glasgow, Mont, and put a new man
in his place here. When the intended
change is to take effect is not known,
out will probably be never, as it is
said that Mr.. VanSant Will not con-
sent to being sent to Glasgow, and
will quit the service of the railroad
company first. The merchants of the
city are much opposed to the change
and there is some talk of sending in a
petition to the company, asking that
Mr.. Van SAINT be left in Kalispell,
where by his unfalling desire to
please the patrons of the company,
he has gained the good will of all.

SERVING BREAKFAST.
Laying the Table-The Knife, Fork
and spoon Question.

In answer to a request for informa-
ton about setting family table and
serving each course the Boston Cook
ing School Magazine says as to break
fast:
A dish of choice fresh fruit, a grow
Ing plant, a few cut flowers in appro-
pirate receptacles, mark the center Of
the table and the point to which all
eyes are naturally directed at the in
tervals of the meal.
In addition to one knife and fork,
other pieces will often be needed, as
when fish and eggs or hot cakes are
served. These may be put in place,
knives on the right, forks on the left,
when the table is laid or from the side
table as required. The first is the bet
ter plan in families of large size.
Orange spoons may be placed above
the plate in laying the table. Knives
for fruit are laid beside the plate after
the plate holding the fruit is set upon
the service plate. The reason for this
is obvious, for only part of the family
will take fruit, and the unused knife is
in the way.
The service or cover plate and the
handles of the small pieces of silver
are set one inch from the edge of the
table, the glass for water at the knife
point the bread and butter plate at
the left of the glass.
The maid announces the serving of
breakfast after the coffeepot and the
n - hot hnx
set in place, the coffeepot at the right
of the cover for the mistress and the
| dish of cereal directly before that of
| the master or some other adult. Be
fore setting these upon the table the
waitress ascertains if the family are
In readiness for the meal.
Balls or pats of butter, cold bread
and hot mullins are upon the side table
and the waitress is careful to note
when a fresh supply is needed in order
| to forestall the need of asking fol
them.
The main dish of the meal, if this be
prepared in individual portions, may be
set before each individual, or in all
cases the platter should be placed be
fore the head of the house, who, carv-
ing when necessary, disposes the por-
tons upon the plates set before him.
one after another, by the waitress.
Potatoes, stewed tomatoes or any veg
etable served with this course is passed
upon a tray, spoon or fork being first
! placed in the dish to the left of each
individual, who helps himself. Small
/ dishes, as a rule, are avoided.

Quarterly Social.

BURNED TO THE GROUND.
Dwelling House and Contents Total
Loss.

LOSS
A small frame building occupied
by Mrs. Hattie Johnson, on Eighth
avenue west, was totally destroyed
by fire this forenoon. The contents
of the building were entirely destroy
ed and the loss is a severe one to
Mrs. Johnson, who is widow, with
five children to support.
The building caught fire while she
was at work and is supposed to have
started from the stovepipe coming in
contact with the roof. The adjoining
residence of Frank Robbins was only
saved after the hardest work on the
part of the firemen and volunteers.
The nearest hydrant was almost half
a mile away, and the workers had to
depend upon the buckets of water
they threw on the building. At one
time it looked as though the Robbins
house would surely go and the furni-
ture was hurriedly removed, but the
hard work of the department told
and the building was saved and be
yond the breaking of the windows by
the heat and the scorching of the
boards no damage was done.
A subscription paper was started
on the grounds for the relief of Mrs
Johnson and in few moments about
$40 was raised.

Labor in Demand.

The demand for laborers was never
greater in Kalispell than at the pres
ent time, and the employment offices
have difficulty in securing enough
men to fill their orders. The men are
wanted chiefly for work on widening
of the narrow gauge from Shelby
Junction to Great Falls, where the
scarcity of workmen will have the
effect of delaying the completion OF
the work

GRATS ARE BEATEN.

The l>alispell Grays went down be-
fore the Comets last night by score
of five to one in a five inning game.
At no stage of the game were the
Grays in the running and they would
have been shut out if it had not been
for a wild throw on the part of the
Comets fielder. Charles Ehrlich
pitched for the Comets and he had
the heavy nitters of the Grays on his
staff, and caused. them to fan the
| wind. Angewood and O'Neill was
the battery for the Grays, who were
somewhat weakened by the absence
of two of their regular men.

PLATED STYLES LEAD.

Plated silk coats. says the Pairs cor
respondent of the Washington Even
ing Star, are more fashionable than
those of plain surfaces. A handsome
afternoon wrap worn on the boulevard
the other day was of dove gray ac-
Gordon plated silk, galloons of lace
forming quite an elaborate trimming.
These were used in diagonal lines down
the sides and front and also upon the
very full balloon sleeves. A shoulder
cape of silk in two shades of gray was
beautifully decorated with lace APP
pliques, while a lace stock over silk
supported fine fichu. From a chou of
silk ribbons innumerable pendants de-
scended over the front of the wrap.
Deep frills of lace matching that at
the throat encircled the wrists. So
dainty was the appearance of the little
woman who wore this coat that she at
tracted admiring glances everywhere,
although her face and figure were not
remarkably pretty. SO great is the adj
vantage of well-made coat of good
material and uncommon design that 1t
is better to have none than one not
of that class.
