Away on the Limited Train
These lines are not original with me. They
are taken from a tuneful little ditty sung
in George AIDES comedy Peggy from Paris"
The jingle danced through my brain the
other day as we lay on the siding at Pralrie
Junction. or some such place, to let tine
Santa FEES west bound California Limited
20 by. 1t was a gorgeous train OF palace
cars, and behind the plate glass observation
windows beauty and fashion and youth and
old age were 1olling among the iuxuriant
cushions, some visiting, some reading, some
pleasantly doing, some making wreaths OF
cigar smoke, some gazing dreamlly through
the windows at the passing cities, ana
fields, and forests and rivers.
| stood on the rear platform OF the last
ear of our train and watched the California
Limited as she faded away toward the gold
en- west. And l thought OF the difference
between travel now and travel IN the Gays
of 40, when it took the gold-seeker hall
long, weary year, filled with all kinds OF
hardships, to travel the distance that is now
covered in three days. thought OF the
slowly moving wagons, the dust, the stones,
the iolting, the thirst, the hunger, the
homesickness, the snail.like crossing OF
plains, the laborious climbing OF mountains,
the weary dragging weeks, the never ending
trail.
In these palaces that had just glided by
were people going to the. same place to
spend the winter months where the climate
is perpetual summer. And they were not
to endure single hardship on the journey.
When night came they were to lie IN beds
whose soft embrace makes sleep luxury,
and in the day time the velvet cushions n !, OF
their seats were to be made deeper stu Dy
pillows-and thy were to spend delightful

dining car, where every dainty that ever

com comforts Of homeland OF the best kind OF

The Cone Flower.

Some ten years ago Prof. l.. e.
Sayre, of the department OF pharmacy
of the University of Kansas, called at
tention to the medicinal value OF one
of our Kansas weeds, the root OF which
was recognized as a valuable agent in
the treatment of various skin dis
eases such as eczema. Since that time
the demand for the root has become
SO great that collectors in the parts OF
the state where the plant grows album
dainty report that there is danger OF
an determination of the weed. The
botanical name Of the plant in ques-
ton is "Echinacea angustifolia." The
common name is Gone Flower" or
BLACK Susans;" the more vulgar name
is "Nigger Head" Recent reports
show that no less than 100000 pounds
of the root have been sent out OF
Rocks county during the past year.
Prof. Sayre is now interesting himself
in the protection Of the weed against
determination. It takes the plant
dDOuI i've years W uCNOioP " Sho
growth when 1t reaches its maximum
value, and it requires, or, at least, pre-
fers calcarious, somewhat rocky soil
for its growth. AS the root is now
bringing about so cents a pound, and
the collecting of 10 to 20 pounds day
is possible. one may easily see how
lucrative the collection Of this plant
has been in the comparatively barren
regions of the northwest.

uity to 1t all.
