How Ern1ines are Captured

Perfect fur, of the delicate eriiline az
least, would be marred by the ordinary
snare, so the trapper devises as cum
ming death for the ermine as the err
mine devises when it darts up through
the snow with its spear teeth clutcheo
in the throat of poor rabbit, writes
Agnes c. Laut, in Leslie's Monthly
Smearing his hunting knife nth grease
he lays it across the track. The little
erminc comes trotting in dots ana
dashes and gallops and dives to the
knife. That greasy smell OF meat II
knows, but that frost-silvered bit OF
steel is something new. The knife Is
frosted like ice. Ice the ermlne has
licked, so he ticks the knife. But alas
fof rs resemblance between ice ana
steel! Ice turns to water under the
warm tongue; steel turns to fire that
blistess snd holds the foolish little stoat
by his inquisitive tongue, 8 hopeless
prisoner till the trapper coiacs. And'
lest marauding wolverine or lynx
should come first and gobble up price,
less ermine, the trapper comes soon'
And that is the end for the ermi1e.

Some forming Thoughts

Keep yourself from the fatal malady
OF bad humor, from grumbling, from
little irritations, from rudeness.
Tomorrow is only stranger, when
he is today consider how you shall en-

Go forth this day with the smallest
expeditions, but with TIE largest pa
tience5 with keen relish for and APP
preciation Of everything beautiful,
great and good, but with temper SO
genial that the friction of the world
Shall rot bear upon your sensibilities.

When we cannot find contentment in
Ourselves, it is useless to seek it else
where.

Women as Dispensers of Medicine

Although the outside world knows
but little about it, there are some hun
dreds Of women who spend their work
ing hours in mixing drugs and diSpens-
ing medicines. Some have passed on
and become chemists, the first woman
chemist in London having qualified as
long ago as 1875. But there are many
who are simply dispensers in the dis
pensing rooms of the large hospitals,
or helping private doctors, or employ
ed by the large dispensing chemists
and in the laboratories OF large dyeing
and chemical works. To a great extent
these women are the daughters Of med
cal men, for the fact that the portals
OF this profession were open and, COM
paratively speaking, were easy for wo-
men to enter, has hardly been realized
until lately by others.
Many apothecaries say. women make
much better dispensers than men; iof
they are neater and take up the profess
sion more as life work. Men who
have failed in their examinations fall
back upon dispensing, but women go
in for it, and you know women arc nat
urally more careful in little things; they
arc more accurate. This is no doubt
why they get on so we'll in this PROBES
sion. They are much neater than men
are: YOU go into mans dispensary
after busy morning. perhaps after a
rush and you wouldn't be able to find
thing-he wouldn't himsclf-not a
thing: but if it is a woman who does
the dispensing you will soon see the
difference. Every bottle will be in its
place, everything neat, spick and span,
and ready 5ar nse in moment. No
time was:c there in glorious hunt
around for the simplest thing.

eaten without great distress.
This had been my condition for
years. About four years ago I had a

fed, but nothing gave me strength
and finally 1 could not even take a sip
of cold water without pain and vomit-

would throw up mouthfuls of slime
and mucus
well, I had reached that stage of
not caring much to live and still not
quite sick enough to die, when finally
was induced to try Grape-Nuts. The
food worked like a charm. There was
no distress after eating, and felt as if
I had a little hold on life. That was
the beginning of the end of my sick
ness. The nervousness gradually left
me and l became entirely cured of that
dreadful disease, nervous prostration.

Any legislator who will father a bill
increasing the salaries of city coun-

itude of the st. Paul board of alder
men and assembly. The story abroad
yesterday that such a bill was in prep
aration, and that it would make the
figure $500 a year, found some of the
members suffering with a disease akin
to heart failure. There was a general
acclaim in favor of such measure

Van Slyke, and can it be passed."
We'll, 1t certainly meets my APPROX

bodies combine on the question and
appoint a committee to see that it
does not fall by the wayside. If some
of those legislators had to attend from
two to three meetings a week, aRd be
buttonholed every hour in the day
and be pulled from bed at night by
some local constituent, I think he

Under the charter as 1t now stands

prevailed for years, but until now no

In Minneapolis the members Of the

are preparing to ask for more Some
of the st. Paul members would split
the figure proposed in the new bill

A member of the Ramsey county del
