"BE YE FRUITFUL"

Mag was the oldest of the lot;
She worked and worked and rested not,
Her life was just big, black blot
And that was all.
Jim was the second twas his fate
To go his fathers wretched gait;
They whipped him early, yes, and late
And that was all.
Liz was the third a puny mite,
She minded babies all the night.
Sometimes she saw the sunshine bright
But that was all.
Bob was the fourth he learned to walk.
They never taught him how to talk;
He had for toys some bits of cork
And that was all.
Bill was the fifth; they made him stay
And sell his papers on Broadway;
They let him keep q cent day
And that was all.
Bess was the smallest of the bunch;
Upon her back she bore hunch:
She had crust q day too much.
And that was all.
The babies, five in all, remain;
They spent their days and night in pain:
They lived, to suffer and complain
And that was all. -LuTGnG w. Sheldon.

"How dare he--how dare you 7"
"Don't be too hard on him, she

CONGRESSMAN MUDD, of Mary
land, tells of a baptism in village in
the black belt of this State. "What
is the name?" asked the minister of
the child's father. "John James
George Washington Fitzhugh Lee
Blaine Harrison Smith," answered
the father. The old minister jotted
down the names, and then, walking
to the baptismal font, a crockery
washbasin, said to the janitor "Mose,
get some more water, There amt
half enough to baptise this child il
we have to take in all his names.

"Shall / begin at the beginning 2"
she asked, in weary tones. He winc-
ed.
'No," he replied, "that would in
clude me. Spare me that" There
was long silence. ''It is of young
Travers your engagement"
"Until tonight" shereninded him
in dull voice, II was engaged to
you. But" her voice stuck. He
was waiting for her to begin.
Mrs. Carr, from New Orleans. was
at the Springs" she began "she is
one of my mothers Oldest friends.
Mr.. Travers is her nephew. 1t was
at one of her receptions that / met
him first.
''Shall 1 tell you everything I"
Her voice had a new ring. He
thought it was from speaking of her
lover.
"Your roses came just as / was
starting" she continued. IT wore
the blue dress, the one you used to
like me in"
Child" he interrupted, "you do
not understand"
Eyes, but I do" gayly. II re-
member it, every bit, you told me
that first night I wore lido you re-
member it?-what you whispered out
there on the gallery about my milk
white arms and shadowy hair It
is pretty dress. wore your roses
to the reception they were glorious
ones" 1" She was leaning on her ell
bows on the table, her big eyes full of
mystery.
"When Mrs. Carr presented Mr..
Travers," she proceeded, che told me
that he had been knowing me for a
long, long time and waiting for me to
come, because his hands were tied, as
it were, and he couldn't come after
me.
"Then I laughed, because it was
such good joke really. Bob, he
said it very much nicer than / can
remember. Then he went on to tell
me that it was before the war he had
known me. He just graduated two
years ago. I am afraid I rather en-
couraged him in the nonsense. It
was such relief from talking to the
women, and 1 can't help being silly,
you know, Bob" His heart felt old
and musty and faded and and her
every word was giving it fresh blow.
She had made little pyramid of the
rose petals aud was nervously tearing
it to pieces to reconstruct it.
HE was very NICE" she contin-
ued. 1--WE went back to sit on the
stairs to listen to the music. That
was the beginning he came the next
day for me to drive with him, and
told me that he loved me"
"The impudent young" he for
eot that it was of her lover he was
] speaking"

FROM A wIFES DIARY.

A word to the wise is resented.
Men are called, but few get up.
Where there's will there's law
suit.
Fools rush in and win-where an
gels fear to tread.
Love is romantic. Matrimony is
decidedly matter of fact.
Misery loves company, but company
does not reciprocate.
Think of your ancestors and your
posterity and you will never marry.
When we hear of other peoples
troubles it reconciles US to our own.
If you bestow a favor forget it, but
if you receive one it is wise to remem-
Der.
We never know how good we are
going to be until the opportunity has
passed.
Happiness is the greatest of tonics,
the best of cosmetics, and the envy
of dyspeptics.
"HAvE YOU a good cook p asked
Mrs. Bond Hill.
Eyes, she's good enough" replied
Mrs. Chester Park. "She attends
church three times a week and all
that, but her cooking is something
fierce"
$50 LONG asmother is willing thatI
should marry you," said the sweet
thing, "papa can easily be won over"
ssEr-ah-do the women folk always
rule in your family" asked the young
man, timidly.

"And that wasn't all, " she fiasehd
defiant eyes at him. She remembered
how jealous he had been. Once she
laughed and asked him if he thought
the enamord air went signing after
her, too. But that was when he had
really cared for her. Now he was
trying to get rid of her. II had ntl-
merous other lovers at the Springs,
Bob. 1t may be, )" she tapped gay
little tune with her fan, that you
might find them diverting. There
was Dave Carey" she assigned her
little finger to him, "and Fred Lam
gles," the next finger to him, "both
of whom proposed to me at the pic
mic on the fourth day of July. Then
there was Mr.. Greyner, who pro-
posed to me at the dance at Judge
Birrow's sons birthday-the son also
proposed, for that matter. DIR. Spald-
ing set my rist when l sprained it,
and when he dismissed me he asked
me to be his wife. That's all the pro-
posals I had at the Springs. There
were five more when I stopped to Wis
it Lucky Kildare on my way home"
The man made gesture of entreaty.
Truly, he had not dreamed oft being
this bad. How could he have ever
been fool enough to expect Judith to
love him against these young men.
"If you marry Travers-" it was
a cowardly subterfuge toget her away
from the others. His voice stuck.
She sat alert, with brilliant eyes.
eff marry Travers, what 7" she
asked.
II don't know" miserably.
''I haven't exactly decided which
one shall marry" She leaned back
languidly.
She remembered the first time she
ever saw him. She was before the
gilt mirror in the back parlor. She
turned to get sidewise view of her.
self, and there in the door he was
calmly watching her. The others
were at the table. The occasion was
a dinner party, and he had committed
theunpardonable offense OF being late.
That was the beginning. He very
much preferrd staying with her, he
declared, if she didn't mind. That
was the night she started loving him.
Hadn't he spent weary hours over
the intricacies of toe dancing to coach
her? Didn't Bob Away understand? /?
The thought that he was just across
the table and not engaged to her any
more almost suffocated her. She
couldn't stand it.

THE EDITOR of a country paper re-
ceived the query, "Can you tell me

In reply he wrote: ''It is my belief

he happened to think of the word
unsettled" He went in next day

rARMEag WIVES AND TELEPHONES.

The farmers wife who opposed ru-
raj free delivery, and later the intro
duction of the telephone, because they
would take away about all the ex-
cuse she ever had to go anywhere,
will have further cause of complaint
If the talk of putting into use new
Special delivery telephone stamp
brings about any practical results.
The telephone stamp is stamp
that is to be attached to letters when
desired, which gives the postmaster
authority to open the letter and tele-
phone its contents to the person ad-
dressed. When things are finally so
arranged that the farmers wife can
send her eggs and butter to town by
mail, and have the, goods they pay
for sent out by rural free delivery,
her only protection will be to go to
church on Sunday, and by that time
they may be preaching by telephone.

OLD AND YOUNG.

It was after the play, and they
were waiting in the quiet little cafe
to be served. She leaned over to
draw in the fragrance of her red roses
and to avoid his eyes, which were
persistent. He was thinking of how
young and lovely she was. How
could he expect her to love him ?
The mirror opposite reminded him of
his years.
Yes, he would tell her-save her
all painful explanations. A young
fellow would make her happier.
Once, in burst of girlish confidence
she has told him how she hated young
men and new houses. 1t was child
ish of him, he told himself, to expect
her to know her own mind.
"What can I eat 7" she beamed at
him with shining eyes. Anything,
from a nice young man to an oyster"
Here was the opening, sooner than he
expected.
Judith" he began, gravely, ''it
is Of the young man / wish to speak
now. Did-did-they say it lis young
Travers? Shall / release you !"
The last, to the girl, seemed an anx-
ious, frenzied appeal for freedom.
So this was what made him so gloomy
so unlike himself. He was tired of
her {; he wanted to be free. She was
pulling rose to pieces and fitting the
petals over her finger tops. "Shall
we ring the curtain down on our lit
tie comedy?" he asked, in an ''it's-
all-for- -the-best" tone. She nodded
slowly. She was beginning to see
more clearly every minute, just as
ones eyes grow accustomed to dark
ness after the first bewilderment. He
wanted to be free.
Judith" he said, ''I shall ask
only one favor of you" He hesi-
tated.
1T is granted, she returned, cold
ly. Perhaps shall have the hon.
or of congratulating you also'-this
also added as an afterthought.
'It is that you will tell it all to
me-" He hesitated, through a sense
of delicacy. eff you mind, dear"
he added, gently, ''then don't.
Did she mind, she asked herself.
No, she gloried in the opportunity.
If he sighed for his freedom he should
have it. She would make no efforts
to hold him, but he should understand
before she let him go that other men
though her desirable. Then he could
go with his freedom-and she would
marry any one of the others. It made
no difference she would take the
one who next asked her. She was
eighteen and infinitely young. The
middle-aged man opposite felt that he
would barter his immortal soul to be
young with her.

LIGHT VOTE TO BE CAST.
Application for Loan Will Be
Made at Once and State
Board Will Act in May.

The proposition of whether or
not the BemidT independent
school district shall make loan
of $4,000 from the state was &C.
copied at the special election call
ed for that purpose and held at
the school house Saturday even.
ing. Owing to the inclement
weather, only 50 votes we're cast,
but the proposition carried by a
majority of nine, the vote stand
ing 81 for and ~ against.
The meeting was called to or
der at z O'Clock, but a half hour
was spent in discussing whether
or not. after the proposition had
carried, the board had a right to
select site for the new build
ings. This question was not
fully settled, but one member of
the board made it plain to the
voters that there was no attempt
on the part of the board to lead
them into voting for any measure
not understood by them, and he
assured them that the board had
full power to locate the site.
An application for the loan will
be made at once to the state
board, and it is expected that
that body will take action upon
the application at the regular
meeting May 1.

A Protest.

Editor Pioneer:lt seems to the
writer that it is Unnecessary for
Bemidji to erect additional school
buildings at this time. A slight
and inexpensive readjustment of
rooms in the present school
building will furnish two addi-
tional roomy class rooms in every
respect unohjectionable. Atpre-
sent the entire basement under
the new wing is not used for any
purpose whatever, neither, in
deed, has it ever been. | would
suggest that this basement be
divided into two rooms, the small
er to accommodate the science
and other work now done in a
class room on the second floor
and the larger one to be used by
some grade, preferably one of
10
the older ones, as the 9th or 18th.
This arrangement gives the
the two additional rooms, one of
which will house the grade now
in the Methodist church and the
other will be available whenever
needed With regard to making
provision for third room for a
grade, | may say that such need
appears at present to be merely
speculation. When the necessity
arises then it can very properly
be provided for.
Should a normal class be added
no additional seating room is
needed, as such pupils are seated
with high school pupils and their
room at present is scarcely half
filled. A small recitation room
is all the extra room needed to
accommodate a normal class. I
hope such a class may be added
the coming year.
To anticipate a possible objec-
ton to the use of a basement for
housing pupils, it's sufficient to
say that hundreds of schools are
SO doing, among such the Winona
normal, N. D. university, Univer-
sity of Minnesota, etc. Defer the
building of new school houses
until another year.
