There are details in the story that might
require explanation. The correct English
man will smile at the thought of a butler
receiving cards at the hall door. but too
often in this country butler is a genteel
name for man of all work, who blacks
boots runs errands, looks after the fur
mace fire; and why should he not wait on
the door If he has nothing else to do?
The visiting foreigner might also inquire
curiously into the age of Buttes best So

social place from the very start and that
leading etymologists are inclined to trace
the origin of the phrase ito butt in" to
the ease with which strangers entered So

While the gospel is preached from the
southern part OF Wisconsin to the most
remote lumber camp in the north, there
nevertheless exists in the north central
part of the state, within ten miles of a
railway a tribe of pagan Indians who be-
lieve neither in God nor the science of

adopted many of the white mans con-

Mrs. Goprevic was of unsound mind. In
support of this they have put forward evil
dence that shows the woman to have been
a most remarkable person. They say that
she was born into family that desired a
son instead of a daughter; that she was
named Harry as boy and raised as a boy.
She had no childhood friends, never went
to school and was taught, splendidly taught,

son says: "For the first time in the
financial history of the South, deposits
in the banks of that region now exceed
81, 00O. 900, 900. The foregoing remark,
able increases in bank deposits in ag-
ricultural states, as well as the increase
in the number of small country banks,
are directly and indirectly because Of
the profits that have come to the farm
ers from the operation OF their farms. Z"
In telling the remarkable story of the
increase in farm values the Secretary OF
Agriculture says: "Such an account OF
the farms of the United States as is
given in the foregoing matter may seem
too optimistic in tone and too extrava-
CANT in expression. With the expecta-
ton that the story of the year would
present this appearance, and to verify
or discredit it, the department under
took and has just completed an investi-
cation in the changes in value per acre
of medium farms since the census of
1900 The net result of these changes
is an enormous increase in the values
LAND 1876 PER CENT HIGHER.
During the five years past the value
of the real estate of medium farms of
this country has increased 1876 per cent,
as compared with the census increase of
20 per cent for the real estate of all
farms from 1890 to 1900. The
average increase, in number of>dollars
per acre, of medium farm, was 1871.
In the grand aggregate of all
farms of all classes, the increased value
equalled the enormous total of SO, 1885,.
600, OOO."
Secretary Wilson has the following
word to say. upon the need for food
legislation: 'The lack of uniformity
in the food legislation in the various
states is source of great annoyance to
manufacturers and dealers. The bureau
of chemistry has cordially co-operated
with the officials of the various states
in their efforts. to regulate the manu-
facture and sale of adulterated foods,
drinks and drugs. 1t is becoming more
and more evident, however, that for
the complete control of evils of this
kind interstate regulation of commerce
in such articles is necessary"
