VERSES DEDICATED
 TO MRS. ALICE D. ORR.

It is not often that flowers bloom in our pathway, or that we see the fruits of our efforts, no matter how well direct ed, until it is too late. When there are example of such things, when flowers bloom unexpectedly they teach lesson more lasting than flowers, and flood the passing years with a radiant light. One, who in after years, when the steps to the school house of ones early youth can be no longer retraced except In mem ory has dedicated some of her early veses to her former teacher and friend, Mrs. Alice D. Orr of Birmingham, and they furnish an example where the life work of a good teacher was appreciated to the fullest.
 The verses reproduced here will strike a responsive chord in many hearts: When memory backward turns Times
 rusty wheel, And shifts the curtain of the vanished
 years Her wandering fingers touch with ten
 derness A picture framed around with smiles
 and tears. Adown a lonely road, two figures walk One tall and womany-and one a child; The childish eyes afire with all youths
 hopes The worn face sad-but still serene and
 mild. And ever as they walk, fresh converse
 springs From time-taught lips. to eager listen
 ing cars Into the childish mind, thoughts fall and
 root To bear sweet blossoms in the future
 years. Lifes truths are spoken, ne'er to be
 forgot IAfes rules, wrung from a heart that
 Life has scarred: And in the warning voice. that Care has
 turned Is ne'er a note. that bitter rings, nor
 hard. Internationally, the youthful mind stores
 up, Much needed wealth, for barren after
 days, And closer clasps, the tender, guiding
 hand Nor sees-nor marks, the parting of the An. tears, nor toll nor weary years can
 dim That picture-Teacher- r-comrade-frlend, For memory's grateful fingers scorn
 Times dust With loving care she keeps 1t to the end.

Larger Sleeping Car Berths.

One of the few railroad companies that
owns and operates the sleeping cars in
service on its lines is the Chicago, Mil
waukee IL st. Paul.
The sleeping cars on this line were
formerly Pullman cars, operated by the
Pullman Company, but for dozen years
past the railway company has owned and
operated the sleeping car equipment. In
building its sleeping cars a departure
from the old standard pattern Of cars has
been made TO the extent Of adding about
six inches to the width and height of the
sleepers. This permits of wider and
higher berths, so that comfort is found
in them which is lacking in ordinary
sleeping cars.
These large cars are in service on prac-
tically all Of the lines of the st. Paul
Road, and are very popular with the
travelling public.

Colorndo's honey exhibit, at the
Worlds Fair, is attracting universal at
tention because of its completeness and
beauty. Experts who have examined it
predict that it will receive the first prize
at the hands Of the committee Of awards.
This industry is fast becoming one of the
most important in Colorado, being very
remunerative and well adapted to the
capabilities Of even frnil women. The
bulk OF the product is sold in the East,
with occasional carload lots going to
England direct. Producers are only able
to supply 20 per cent. of the demand.
