BEGIN RIGHT AWAY.
Every Moments Delay Only Makes a Contemplated Task the
 Harder

"Begin right, and right away" is moto which would have saved many youth from disaster. Nothing is more delusive than delay. I have known more people come to grief through pro- crastina tion, indolence and dillydally- ing, than from almost anything else. There is nothing else quite so destruc- tive to the energy which does things, or which paralyzes the execu i've facul- ties, as habit of daWdling, says Suc- cess.
 The only possible corrective of it is to determine stoutly to begin, on the instant, the task befo- you. Every moments delay makes it harder and harder to start. It is the beginning which is difficult. If dawdlers could only once be set in motion, many of them would run awhile; but they lack the power of initiative.
 Shun the fatal habit of putting off," as you would a temptation to crime. The moment you feel temptation to dawdle come upon you, jump up, and then go with all your might at the most difficult thing you have to do. Never begin with the easiest thing; take the hardest, and hang on persistently until you have overcome the habit. Fear procrastination as dangerous enemy. It is more than thief of time; it steals character, ruins opportunity, robs you of freedom, and makes a slave of you.
 How can one expect to succeed when his tomorrows are always mortgaged 1 for the debt that should have been paid to-day? The ready boy, the one who is always on the alert for the next thing, who is always prepared to do the thing required of him, and to do it at once, is the one who wins. A habit of promptnes is the most valua ble one to form. It unifies and strengthens the faculties, and makes one methodical.
 Everybody admires a boy who, like race horse, is always ready to start. A ready boy makes prompt, efficient man. Somehow, readiness and prompt 1 ness seem to brace up all the other fac ulties, and raise their value to the high est power. They follow in line when promptness leads the way.

WOMEN MOB KUBELlK.

"Please go awayi You worry me!' pleaded young Jan Kubelik, the famous violinist. to the swarming wclnen who nressed about him as he tried to reach his carriage after his cOncer- at the Brooklyn Academy of Music the other day.
 "Oh. you angelw
 "Oh, you darlingf'
 "Please give me just one hair fro il your headv'
 These and similar expressions strug- gled out from the dense mass of Wo- men and girls in the center of which was the hapless yiolinist.
 No; I won't let you kiss mev' came the high voice of the worried boy. fLadies, please let me passw
 This appeal brought him a foot or so nearer his carriage, but his admirers still hung about him. The coaehman, who had the best place from which to view the extrao- sary performance. enjoyed it thoroughly. He exchanged delighted grins with q policeman who hovered on the edge of the skirted mob.
 Shall I held him out?' sailed the policeman
 Nav" said the cabman; Ines doing all right
 'I don't want to be rude. ladies" came the appealing voice from the heart of the trouble, sbut . must ask you to let me through. 1 appreciate your kindness and all that. Kindly let go of my coat, madam. I have no pie lures with me- I do not give auto graphs. Will yoIl please allow me to get to the carriagew
 There was a surging of the mass. Kubelik had realized that 7ords would not help him and was forcing his way through the press. gently disengaging the hands that clung to his coat and lodging the caresses that were aimed at his transit.
 A final heave, a rush, a jump. the sound of ripping cloth, and Ku5ehk had gained his carriage and slammed the door When he had recovered his breath and replaced his disturbed tie his instinct to be gracious overcame him. and he reached his lrn out of the window and waved his hand to his ad- mirers.

of the state traversed by the line of Che Great Northern and Northern Pacific? On the contrary, would not such course have been hailed with approval as a means of opening up markets for north western produce and of reaching markets in the south and southwest, and of secur- ing business, increasing the volume of the traffic of the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific, thus making reduction of rates and adding to the general pros perity of the northwest? Instead of build ing the Burlington system or line of railway alongside of 1t the Great North ern and Northern Pacific purchased the capital stock of a line already construct ed. Instead of issuing stock or bonds for the purpose of raising moneys for build ing line right through the same coun- try bonds were issued to purchase the stock of a constructed line.
 Railroads make public through publish- ed rates the price charged for transporta- tion, the only thing t3ey have to sell, and must report the amount they receive for what they sell and what has been done with it. Courts are open for the purpose of determining whether railway compa- nies as carriers observe their obligations to the public.
 The question of the reasonableness of rates and service does not depend upon whether one man owns the capital stock of railway whether the capital stock is owned by ten men or thousand or by persons or corporations. The capital stock of railway company is personal property to be sold, transferred from one man to another, and any one may pur- chase and hold all that he has means to buy and pay for. The capital stock of the Northern Pacific and the Great North ern will be held by somebody, persons or corporations, if nat by the present own CTS by other owners.
 I hope in the future that with better methods of cultivation and more knowl- edge of what is required your condition may be constantly improved, and if your condition is improved ours will certainly share it with you As the volume of traffic increases our rates will be reduced Remember that whatever helps you helps the railroad and whatever hurts you or restricts your growth restricts the growth of the railroad serving you. We will al- ways prosper together or be poor to- gether.

COOKING AND SERVING EGGS.
4 Few Suggestions Regarding Very Simple Process That Should
 Be Followed.

Eggs, although so closely related to meats in their food value, are better adapted to the full round of seasons than the flesh of animals. In the early spring they begin to grow more plen- tiful, and from then on until the ap- petite again incines toward the grosser meats, the markets are gem orally provided with an abundant supply of good fresh eggs.
 An egg, of all foods, must be above suspicion, for the senses once offended by an ill-conditioned egg will never forgive the affront, says the Washing ton Star.
 Eggs play very important part in cooking, aside from their employ ment as the principal dish of the meal and taking the place of meats, IS they enter into an infinite variety of different dishes.
 But considering them only as meat dishes we have a bewildering list to choose from, so that if we cared to serve them more frequently than meats on our daily bill of fare it would take us long time to exhaust the list For breakfast dishes especially we have a delightful assortment.
 From a housekeeper whose 'expe- rience, joined with common sense,' 7 has brought her much valuable knowl- edge comes this bit of knowledge: The way to boil an egg is not to boil it at all. This may seem paradoxical, but 1t is nevertheless true. Put the eggs in wire basket with a handle-the frying basket will answer; then set the basket in boiler and cover the eggs well with perfectly cold water, not warm or hot, but cold water; set the boiler over the fire, when the wa ter will heat quickly, and let the wa ter just come to boil, but it must not boil; at this particular time-not a moment later or sooner-remove the basket from the water and the eggs Wlh be cooked just as they should be-; spread large dolly on a heated dish; Lay the eggs on this; fold the corners of the dolly over the eggs and serve B.. once. Follow the directions to the let ter, and when the eggs are broken and turned out of the shell, la Amer ican, they will roll out like balls of jelly, leaving the shell clear and clean, the egg thoroughly cooked. tender and delioafa

THEDEALEKPLAINED
President Hill Tells of Great
 Northern's Plans.
PRODUCERS ADDRESSED AT FARGO.
The Aim of the Consolidation Is to Increase Freight Traffic to the End That Lower Rates
 May Be Established.

FARGO, N D., Jan. 1.-The fea- lures of the tristate grain and cattle growers convention here were the ad- dress of President JAmes J. Hill and the practically unanimous adoption of resolutions commenting him for his work in behalf of the northwest. These resolutions, after declaring the most natural line of transportation for the products of the northwestern states and for the trade of the orient destined for the north, middle and eastern states is along the route followed by the Nor@slern Pacific railroad, proceed as follows:
 Ut is the sense of this meeting, there fore, that in resisting the attempts of the Union Pacific railroad and it's allies on the one hand and the Cana dian Pacific railroad and it's feeders on the other to secure control of the Northern Pacific railroad James J. Hill has performed q notable public service and once more displayed the farsighted and businesslike policy that has characterized his long career as the great developer of northwestern resources and the most watchful guar dian of northwestern interests
 MT. Hill said in part:
 Twenty-Five years ago it was supposed that competition was necessary to reduce rates. I think that we have shown in the northwest that without competition rates have been reduced faster than anywhere else in the country.
 There has recently been an attempt to show that we have no interest in the building up of the prosperity of the peo- pie of your state and of the northwest If we did not do everything in our power to build you up, we would be false to our best interests Our object in acquiring the Burlington jointly with the Northern Pacific railway was to insure an outlet to the best markets for the grain, live stock afld lumber for the northern states and to increase the volume of our traffic to the end that we might at all times be able to establish the lowest rates and most favor able conditions under which the traffic must be carried.
 Assuming that the line of the Burling- ton had not been constructed and that the Great Northern and Northern Pacific jointly had raised the money and were engaged in the construction of it, would there be anything to meet the disapproval

Gooa Advice for Women.

Will you stuff your little children's mouths now with cakes, and leave them to be careless or ashamed of you when they are grown, or will you choose to grow mentally and spiritual ly, keeping we'll abreast of the day you live in, no matter if your children's fare be plain? So shall they turn to you in pride when they become fully developed men and women. Give up slavery to show. Give up vanity which feeds upon the envy of neighbors over trifing things. Give up feeding your household with indigestible food pre- pared by your own heavy toll. Give up fripperies of the needle, all kinds of useless gewgaws, and teach your hands, your body and your feet the beauty of repose. Learn to work at what is worth while, to think of real things, to avoid wasting your powers upon the nothings of life.-Ada c. Sweet, in Woman's Home Companion.

BLooDsHED IN PARAGUAY.
Candidate For President Killed Tn
 Senate Chamber.


 BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, Jan. 1.-The latest news from Asuncion elbows that blood has been shed i'll the Paraguayan revolution which Over- threw Aceyal so quickly. 1t is proba- ble thasS there will be q further strug- gle. as President Aceyal has been re- leased from prison.
 The plot to depose Senor Aceval was decided upon at conference between General Caballero, General Escobar, Colonel Escurra, the minister of war; Senor Moreno, the minister of finance, and Senator Fleytas.
 This revolutionary committee sent a deputation to President Aceval to re- quest him to resign. Senor Aceyal em- phatically declined.
 As a declination was expected, a de taehment of cavalry was placed within easy call. The cavalrymen were sum- moned, and the president was taken off to prison.
 The worst features of the revolt were seen in the senate at noon Thursday, for the chamber was transformed into battlefield.
 Some person in the crowd fired a re. yolver, and that was a signal for Q general conflict. Reyolvers and othei weapons were drawn, and great disor. der, including the firing of shots, pre- vailed.
 Senator Facando Insfran, president of the hygenic council, was killed. He was a candidate for the presidency of Paraguay. Senators Corvalan and Fleytas. General Caballero and Depu- ty Carreras were seriously wounded. Fifteen other persons also received wounds which are not dangerous.
