"A New BicVcle,

A novel bicycle has been built in
London which has been pronounced
as comfortable "as a rocking chair, .
and which shows remarkable mechan-
ical ingenuity. It has a chair-like
antivibrating saddle which affords
wonderful relief to tired back. The
rear wheel is about the standard size,
but the front is about half this size,
and the handle-bars are almost di.
rectly under the saddle. The steering
gear is under perfect control, and al.
lows a low diamond frame wheel that
ladies may mount and ride with ease.
We are not trying to induce you to
order one of these wheels, but to urge
you to order case of golden grain

erage. Order of your nearest dealer

Clapp OH Rate Legislation.

Speaking of railroad rate legisla-
ton and the prospects of bill getting
through the senate this coming SEES
sion Senator Clapp said: T.
81 regard it as certain that there
will be bill put through and I do
not share the opinion of some that
there will be long and bitter fight
over it either. I am of opinion that
there is very big preponderance of
sentiment in the senate favorable to
President Roosevelt's policy of ex-
tending the power to adjust rates to
an administrative body, and that of
course, means the interstate COM
MERGE commission. It is quite proba-
bic that the committee will make two
or three reports, and that there will
be several bills introduced by mem
bers of that committee, but I expect
to see the administration bill passed.
"The people are with Roosevelt on
this question, and he will have pretty
nearly solid democratic support in
both senate and house. It seems to
me that opposition will be poor pol
icy. If the bill enacted does not work
all right it can be amended, but the
people are in earnest on this ques-
ton, and it behooves congress to
give the country legislation as de-
manded.' @*

time to do anything except try to save
her children and herself.
She seized two, who were sleeping
soundly as only children can, and
dashed with them into the open air
and dropped them. Back into the
hot breath and flame of the burning
house she hurried without thought of
the great danger to herself, and,
Selling the other sleeping child, again
made for the open air and safety.
But the fire had now burned her
face and hands, though she was
scarcely aware of it at the time, and
for a moment she was bewildered and
almost overpowered with the heat.
She tried not to inhale the flames that
curled about her face and set fire to
her night-robe, and but for this pre-
caution she might never have left the
place alive. A physician says that
her burns, while severe, are not dan
gerous.

Race Track a Vice Breeder.

If the operations of the race tracks
in the vicinity of New York and else
where have ever had any positive
and tangible result in the improve
ment of the breed of horses, as is
claimed, we have yet to learn of the
fact. But that they have had very
much to do in the corruption and i'm
poverishment of the breed of men, the
records of the police courts and other
criminal statistics furnish only too
much evidence. Two specially fragrant
instances of this character have come
to public notice in the press within
the past few days. One was that of a
lad of good family and high connec-
tions, who was found guilty of steal
ing jewelry from near relative in
order, as he confessed, that he might
get money to spend at the race tracks.
Another was that of young man who
had been for years a confidential
clerk and cashier in the service of the
Morgan trust estate, and had taken
advantage of his position to steal
nearly $4,000, all of which, accord
ing to his own admission, had gone
into the NAV of the race track gam
blers. And these are only two cases
OF hundreds of defalcations, forgeries
and thefts recorded every year, all
having their inspiration from the
same direction,-the poolrooms and
the race-tracks. "He stole to bet on
the races" is the legend that runs al
most daily over accounts of criminal
misdoings, from that of the Office boy
who steals 50 cents in stamps from his
employer to spend in poolroom to
that of the trusted employe of some
bank or other business house who
flches his thousands for the same evil
urpose.-Leslie' Weekly.

ESTABLISHES THE STANDARD.

The Oriental Limited of the Great Nor
Equipment.
The hardships and deprivations of
an overland trip in the early days of
the northwest are known to all who
read. In this early day trip across
America meant tenfold the danger
that trip around the world means
today. What wonderful changes have
been wrought and what was consid-
cred a hardship fifty years ago,
which few could combat, is today a
pleasurable pastime something to
anticipate, something to delight.
UNNECESSARILY more so is this the
case since the Great Northern placed
in service their regal train, "The
Oriental Limited The fact must be
considered that in undertaking a
journey of several thousand miles the
ease and comfort with which it can
be accomplished is a first considera-
tion. In the contemplation of a
journey the traveller selects that
means Of transportation which affords
him the quickest, easiest and most
comfortable trip. 1t is no exaggera-
ton to state that the "Oriental Lin
tied" is the fulfllment of inventive
genius in train equipment Few peo-
pie realize the care bestowed, the
complicated, smoothly working mech
anism which makes the whole a thing
of beauty and perfection in the art of
transportation.
'The Oriental Limited'' is made up
of a locomotive of the most advanced
and powerful type, elegant day
coaches, seating "a people; new tour.
ist seepers, which have such a feature
of the Great Northern overland trains:
new dining cars; palace sleeping cars:
and, what is decided innovation in

Heroic Deed of Mother.

Fire destroyed the home of Mrs.

and she and they had narrow escape
from death in the flames. Mrs. Nell

more than year ago. She and the
babies were alone and asleep when
the fire originated. She was awak-
ened by the smoke, and to her dismay
found the house was ablaze inside the
room, and that she would have no
