popularity to the travelling public The Chi
cago & Northwestern Ry. have recently
announced the sale of tickets of this charac-

Royal Mail Line to Vancouver or via the
Oceanic S. S. Co.'s Line, the direct route to
San Francisco.

years and tourists find the trip filled with
scenes Of picturesque interest not equaled
in the old journeys made by tourists through
England and on the continent.

WHAT BOBBY DID
NOT KNOW ~ ~
By Sara Lindsey Coleman.
Copyright, 1908, by Daily Story Pub Co.


DOLBY met the little princess one
ID summer of his boyhood as he
strolled on the beach in an out of the
way place on the Atlantic coast. A
tiny. dark creature, with tangled locks,
she didn't seem much of a princess as
she quivered under the brutal epithets
hurled at her by small male tor
mentor. 1t was positively wicked TO be
a snub-nosed, knock-kneed fraid-cat.
She wept under the piled-up agony of
it.
Bobby, some years old, thrashed the
young bully, climbed up beside the
child lying on wet rock that pushed
itself into the sea, and restored her
self-respect by declaring that she
didn't have a snub nose. and that she
would be the finest there is when she
grew up to her bully eyes.
They became famous friends in the
long happy days that followed. Bobby
went to college resolved that he would
seek his princess when school days
were done, and ask her to make the
world beautiful for him.
Some years later he met her, much

young beauty, grown up to her bully
eyes, and he smiled somewhat cynical
ly as he thought of that brave young
resolve.
Rumor associated her name with
Maj. Davis, man of wealth, old
enough to be her father, and it seemed
that for once rumor might be relied
upon.
Finding the major always there,
Bobby flung himself from the girls
presence and into the service of his
country. On the day he sailed from
Frisco he read the announcement of
the approaching marriage of Carolyn
Nicholson to Maj. Davis, and not with
out bitterness of soul closed that sweet
chapter of his life.
A graver Bobby. and pale with the
weakness of an old fever in his blood,
he hesitated in the hallway of a south

THE OLD CRAB-APPLE TREE.

Little old crab apple tree
Down beside the stream that goes
Winding onward laZily,
Never caring where it flows.
Are you standing there to-day
AS you did long, long ago
Waiting fragrance far away
When your sweet pink blossoms blow?
Do the cows, sedate. sad-eyed
Come to rub against you there,
Polishing your gnarly side,
Leaving little tufts of hair?
Does the blackbird. with his wings
Crimson-sp lashed, still come and go,
AS il charmed with earthly things,
When your sweet pink blossoms blow?
Little old crab apple tree,
| am going back some day
TO lie down and laZiiy
Hear the water sing away;
] am going back to dream
Glad old dreams of long ago
Where the cows wade in the stream
And your sweet pink blossoms blow.
