MYSTERIOUS PEOPLE.
The AwesOme Importance and So

The AwesOme Importance and So-
cretive Air They Affect.
Many people assume certain man
ners as they assume certain clothes
and change these manners more sell
dom than they change their clothes.
Some think it iugratiating to be perky.
Others think it more graceful to be
dropping and melancholy, to gaze visit
fully, walk mournfully and sit as if
before the baked meats of funeral
feast. But Of all the people who in
dulge in travesty | think get most
amusement out Of the mysterious peo-
pie.
Bated, forever bated, is the breath Of
the mysterious person. Directly he
comes into the room you are conscious
Of the presence of the unutterable and
know that 1t will speedily be uttered
into your most private ear. When he
speaks to you he takes you aside" so
that none other may know that he is
telling you that the Weather is damp
and that there is a deal Of influenza
about As he Olsen Hitll you such
| dreadful subjects as the price Of hob
| nailed boots, the fluctuations Of stocks
and the economies of the administra-
| ton his head approaches yours, his lips
| pout secretively. his eyes glance round
warily to make sure shat no one Is
within earshot to betray him and you.
The gallows is surely i'll his memory.
He wishes to avoid it; he wishes
kindly wretch-to save you from it al
So Meet him halfway. 1t is such
| fun to do that. He responds sensitive
| ly to the slightest mysterious encour-
agement and thinks he is impressing
| you and that you believe him to be a
strange and remarkable parsonage and
that you will go away and say: Glad
met John Smith. Interesting man.
Not every day you come across a man
like that
Many women are mysterious. In
deed, l have met more mysterious
women than mysterious men. The
mysterious woman is often small, but
her hats are large, plumed like a
hearse and generally black as night.
Pale is her face and languid her man

rule. she has little to say, but says it
in such an awful manner that it takes
on a fictitious Importance and for the
moment appears to be impressive.
Think over your acquaintance and
friends. Are not some Of them mys-
ferrous. and are not they highly con-
sidered? Are not they called interest
ing" ON that account? There are many
spurious things in the social world
but few things are more spurious than
that reputation for being interesting

point above MARQUIS island They
met a number of our citizens and con-
yersed freely over the prospects of the
state, seeming well pleased with the
looks of the country, which never be-
fore presented better appearance, but
one and all they were very reticent
| about the all-interesting subject to our
citizens and the state at large, as to
whether the road will make any move
this year towards building west of the
river to the hills. Inasmuch as they
seemed to want to avoid this toric no
one pressed them FOR any definite in
formation.
The trip of the officials to Pierre at
this time, together with their extended
stay and the points they visited should
certainly prove good pointer, if moth
ing else. People here are becoming
we'll satisfied by piecing this and that
together, that the Northwestern is get
ting ready for westward move from
Pierre, and this, too, during the coming
summer. The mere fact that many Cal
loads of steel rails are now being quietly
piled up near the stock yards. and that
immense quantities OF bridge and con
struction timbers and ties are accumu
iating in the yards at Huron, can NEAR
nothing else.
The time has come when the North
western is forced to build west, anc
Pierre might as well prepare to wit
ness lively railroad times in another
month or two.
President Hughitt and other officials
came to Pierre to touch the button tina
will soon set railroad extension at worl
vest of Pierre, and you can well bellev'
it, for there are many evidences tina
point unerringly to this conclusion.

Encouraging the Canning Fac
tory Move.
y ours very truly,
WILLIAM IL. LEWIS.

With great pleasure, | read an
article in a paper Of this county
in regard to the establishment Of Il
canning factory at Lutcsville. I
feel confident that our people will
heartily support this movement.
Bollinger county is progressive
and prosperous, still its resources
are but partially developed.
AS the timber supply is declining
and more land is cleared, the fruit
growing industry is extended and
promises to be the most important
source Of revenue for our people.
BoIlingcr county is admittedly one
of the best counties in the state for
all kinds of fruit. All that we need.
is a near, steady market. 1t is too
expensive to ship fruit to St. Louis,
Of course | speak of fruit in general
and | would except strawberries III
their season. Besides, fruit is liable
to spoil while on the road and it
comes to the market after they are
ovcrstOcked Now these disadvant-
ages of our fruit growers would be
greatly reduced by the proposed
canning establishment.
The plant itself would have to
employ number ofhands, thus put
ting sum of money in circulation.
Many of our young people would
find pro ftable employment at home,
raising fruit and wouid be kept
from drifting to the large cities.
Everybody would be more or less
benefited by this enterprise. Why
should we not all lend q helping
hund? Our state department of
agriculture stated sometime ago that
hundreds of car loads of canned
fruit is shipped annually into this
state from other states. Why should
we not supply our own people and
perhaps others with canned goods.
Let us take advantage of our
opportunities. A READER.
