Smart and Smarter,

New York Times: Into the Jersey
City station Of the Pennsylvania rail-
road sauntered a portly man. He wore
a chesty look and carried an umbrella.
Advancing to one of the benches, he
pulled a chain and paddock from his
pocket, ran one end Of the chain
through the open handle and made the
umbrella fast to the seat. Then he
said to a mar sitting there:
1--WE Travelled all over the country
for five years and 7 know a thing or
two"
Then he walked away.
The man Who sat there got up. He
had a check suit and a smooth cheek.
He stepped up to the umbrella, pulled
a file from his pocket, rubbed it to and
fro across one of the links in the chain
for a few minutes, loosening the UNI
brella. Then he said to another man:
eff the Teller who is smarter thar

parasol tell him h chap you saw

farm afore."

Sweet Morsels the Undoins Of Women

Sweet Morsels the Undoins of Women
Employees.
Chicago Inter Ocean: It is reported
that all the women stenographers in
the general offices Of the Grand Trunk
railway are to be discharged for the
reasons hereinafter set forth, to-wit:
Because they are too much addicted
to the chocolate cream and caramel
habit.
Because, when not INDUCING In a
rtous kinds of CONNECTIONS, they are.
engaged in nibbling at solid food.
Because they talk too much, and es-
pectally about matters in which the
railroad company as a common carrier
and a corporation organized for profit
is not now and cannot under u cir
cumstances become interested.
Because the average woman employe,
has no thought for the future that is
associated with the development OF
the company's interests, her main pur
pose being to kill time until b finds
a husband.
1t is possible hat some of these
charges are well founded. It Is pos
sible that women employees as a rule,
and particularly when they are thrown
together In large numbers, are prone
to carry feminine weaknesses into the
daily routine of business life, to the
extent of endangering the balance Of
those masculine minds which are more
or less influenced by their delightful
presence.
It is possible that half a dozen cara
Indicating women in a general office
are capable Of throwing a well organ
lied railway system out of gear, and
that no discipline was ever established
that has been sufficiently rigid to pre-
rent the average woman from for
getting business If there is anything
more interesting at hand.
But, with this admitted, the fact re-
mains that If candy, lunches and gos-
a rule are not only faithful and honest,
but competent employees. This fact is
we'll recognized.
Men are. not perfect. We believe that
this will be admitted ever by railway
managers. And it is frequently the
fault of the men rather than the fault
of the women that the women do not
adhere more strictly to the office rules.
When there are no men the women do,
better. When there are a few men
the women do not do SO well. When
there are as many men as there are,
women, neither the men nor the women
do quite as well as they ought to do.
| And man Is as much inclined now as
he was in the Garden Of Eden to throw
the blame on the woman when any
thing goes wrong.
Still, for woman's sweet sake, let us
hope that the action of the railway
company in question may teach her
that, while candy, lunching and gossip
ing may be all very well in their way,
yet from mans point of view bu. mess
Is business.

through the interference of her lovers
brother, Lord Dinover, because h
(Kitty) had zone upon the stage to
earn her living.
And now her darling sister was lead
ing a strange life, bearing a strange
NAME, because of this man with whom
she was obliged to sit at meat.
Olive was not visible any more that
evening, much, it must be confessed, to
his lordship's disappointment. He vas
anxious to improve his acquaintance,
and readily accepted old D'Arcy's in
vitation to ride over some afternoon
and look round the pace.
The old man was out when he arrived,
and Olive was called upon to receive
him in her g~randfather's stead. She
was in her sitting om- quaint, oak
paneled chamber, fragrant with roses,
and gay with old china in c%uriously
carved ebony cabinets. She had been
singing and the last notes of her song,
a pathetic hush melody, died away as
he entered.
your voice reminds me of a singer
I once heard in London, Miss Olive"
he said presently. 1T was just such
another-pathetic, soul-searching, and
~soul-rousing. She also was Irish"
Was it possible h a he could have
the %effrontery to speak to Kitty before
her face? She turned indignantly
away. "-.s
He looked puzzled. IT seem to have

Of some one, but who it is I cannot
think Have you a sister, Miss
D'Arc,.?"
Olive rose. Her face white with pas
sion, her eyes ablaze with scorn. How
dare ycu!" she said, How dare you
speak to me about my sister!"
Another moment and he was alone,
feeling hat either he or she must be
mad.
Undoubtedly the poor girls ghost
haunted" he thought; believes that I
murdered her sister. By-the-bye, I
did hear something about the sudden
disappearance Of Miss Darcy the elder.
I wonder what it means?"

She turned toward him in the moon

sister," she answered, and hen broke
into sobs.
Somehow she stammered out her tale,
and waited with a curious numbness
at her heart for his reply.
"And you believed this of me, Olive
believed me capable of such unutter-
ably caddish conduct?"
Her sister had told her so-her sis
ter!
Your sister, dear" he answered,
never knew the truth. It's hard to
speak Ill Of the dead, but my younger
brother, Guy, deceived her shamefully.
He was already married, and I only ar
rived in time to ave our sister from
a fate sad to contemplate. I suppose
my brother told her the tale she sent
to you-that I objected to the stage?"

vious occasion, when something hap

of her life.

her grandfather, "and come and help.

that a trained nurse had better be sent

And thus adjured, Olive shook off
her hesitation n enrolled herself as
chief attendant under Molly, the house
keeper.
Lord Dinover mended apace. He
daily grew more like himself; and one
afternoon, when the castle was flooded
with sunshine, and the garden gay with
flowers, he was brought downstairs.
Olives sitting room happened to be
the nearest, and it was there that he
was accordingly deposited. His nurse
flushed somewhat as she remembered
what he had said.

you are stronger, perhaps"

tell me, Oliver"
Quite impossible!" she repeated, and
then, for no apparent reason, she fell to
weeping.
"Of course, if I am distasteful to
you," he continued, II will withdraw at
once"
And then: "olive!" he stammered
falteringly, "I have so much to tell
you, and I car only find such poor, such
miserably poor words in which to tell
it. Olive" his voice sank to a passion

Tell me, my darling, do you care ssor me

Passenger Service to New Town

Oct. LIST.

1t is now understood that
regular passenger trains to
Northome will be put on Oct. lst.
The track into the new town is
now in fair condition to be used.
The sink hole few hundred
yards from Northome, which has
caused delay in establishing a
passenger service, has been filled
in and will, it is thought, give no
more trouble. Several train loads
of gravel are being placed on the
new track each day. The depot
and section house at Northome
are completed and a water tank
is now in the course of construc-
ton. A three stall round house
is also being built.

FOR SETTLEMENT
Northern Minnesota Offers Won.
drous Possibilities to the
Landseeker.

One of our Beltrami county eX-
changes tells in the following
able and interesting manner OF
the possibilities of Northern
Minnesota:
In Minnesota, and particularly
in this northern part, are millions
of acres of as good land as the
sun shines upon, which only
need the applied energy of set
tiers to make it a garden spot.
Here are vast tracts which the
settler may and will convert into
fruitful farms. Here are pos
sibilities imprisoned in Nature S
heart which unlocked by. the
magic key of progress will
emerge as glorious results.
At present the great immigra-
tion of land seekers into the
northwest is rushing pell nell
into the Dakotas and western
Canada. We believe that this
region offers far greater induce
ments than the prairie countries
of the west and northwest. True,
the immigration hereis constant,
but it doesn't do justice to the
possibilities of this section. If
the truth concerning this coun-
try was presented in a perslsten t
and systematic manner to the
prospective homeseeker there
would result a much larger flow
of settlers.
IF this section was widely ad-
vertised in a judicious manner
the result would certainly be
very gratifying. The advantages
Of this region are not brought in
to general notice: While-you see
other places advertised, very
little is said about this country
outside OF local papers. There
are too many people who imagine
this to be a region of sand alter
mating with bogs.
The ripping brook speaks of a
bright future. And waving pines
whisper of hopes to be realized.
In the shadow of the forest
stands oppor tunity with a beck
oning hand, and foretells the
present possibilities into future
certainties.
