Pioneer Business College Begins
Fall Term With Good Enroll
ment,

Messrs. Bouton & Bailey opened
their new school On Monday last, and
report that their September list of
students is exceptionally good, and
prospects are very encouraging, The
thorough renovation of the building
has made the rooms very light and
pleasant, and this together with the
entirely new equipment, gives the
school every appearance of an up-to-
date and practical institution. Young
men and ladies are especially re-
quested to read carefully the college
advertisement found elsewhere in this
issue, and note the changes that have
recently been made in the way of text
books, methods, etc. They are also
requested not to overlook the matter
of one months free tuition. This is
given as an inducement to early en-
rollment, and holds good any time
during the present month. Parents
should not neglect to investigate the
exceptional advantages which this
school affords every young man and
woman. Our catalog may interest
you. It is attractive, original and to-
the-pOint.

Sank Centre Schools Offer a Free
Normal Departmentf for Teachers

Our public schools will open next
Monday, Sept. IL, and parents should
make it point to send their children
on the first day of school, and keep
them in regular attendance. Many
of the failures which occur each year
among pupils in school are due to
irregular attendance through neglect
of parents to insist that their children
attend every day. The Sank Centre
schools will provide normal depart.
ment this year, and graduates from
this department will receive state
teachers certificate without examina-
ton. This is an excellent opportunity
for prospective teachers to secure thei,
teacher certificate and the best o!
experience in practice work free OF al
expenses.

ENTERTAINED.

Mrs. ]. P. Nelson entertained twelve
young ladies last Thursday afternoon.
A dainty luncheon was spread upon
little tables that were decorated with
sweet peas.
The party was given as farewell for
several of the young ladies who de-
parted for their schools on Saturday.
They were the Misses Laura Thomson
who will teach at Staples, Semina
Madsen at Princeton, Anna Norris at
Crystal, N. D., Bertha Rich at James
town, N. D., Miss G. Nelson at St..
Peter, Kate Reid at Wadena. The
other guests were the Misses Clara
Carr, Bessie Parker, Minda Lovaas,
Lizzie Rich, MOllie Madsen and Miss
Lottie Healy of Faribault. Miss
Laura Thomson did the talking.

Work is civilization; work is educa-
ton: work is religion. A man who
does not work is of no more use to
the world than an alarm clock with
the main spring broken. A man who
does not earn his living steals his
keep. Who is not entitled to holl-
day if not the person who makes
things?
The only sign of a cloud on the sky
of the holiday of workers this glorious
September Monday, was owing to the
fire in our Office we were precluded
from making our Labor Day speech.

A Story For You

A VISITOR at lunatic asy-
lum noticed one of the inmates
walking about the grounds push
ing in front of him wheelbar-
row turned upside down.
The visitor stopped him and
inquired the reason for the I'M
usual procedure.
"Why, you see," said the de-
mented one, "if | turned 1t right
side up they'd put bricks in it."
So in store life; if store has
good goods at a right price, and
tells it's customers about them,
it keeps the wheelbarrow right
side up and there will be bricks
put into it. Good buying, close
selling, honest and polite treat
ment, energetic advertising
the short story of our success.

IL Is not only the conception OF the
story that shows the genius OF the
author-it is the writing as well, fuli
of reality, of strong, tenuous move
ment, OF restrained projection OF force
which is Irresistible. This latent
basic quality is more felt than evil
denced, and. bearing In mind the large
conception at the start, the reader
goes on with entire faith In the ability
Of the author to develope all the de.
tails. There are clear pictures OF
California In Its infinite variety;
the soft engaging skies. the unpar-
alleled mornings, the monotonous but
impressive plains, the fascinating ari-
dity Of the hills, the smell of dried
grass, the noisy preparation for the
sowing Of the seed, the dropping of the
seed into the eager earth. the welcome
rain, and, finally, the glorious rift In
the clod through which appears the
wheat.
Tulere county Is the seat OF the chief
actors In the tale. and close.drawn
sketches OF the country people are
given In the various accounts OF the
ranch laborers, their festivities and
quarrels. The arrival OF Delaney at
Annixter's dance given on the com
rletion OF the latter's barn, Is real
istic representation OF the desperate
spirit; the Southern shotgun exhi-
bits yet too common among certain
class In the South and Southwest.
The story itself has an interest all It's
own, but II Is not one OF the intense
sort that will demand nights vigil.
II is saner than that. In some instan.
ces the story seems long drawn out,
and there Is tendency to tiresome ana
unnecessary detail which occasionally
reminds one OF Dickens. The itera'
ton and reiteration OF words and
phrases gives the impression OF
striving for effect, OF desire to be

THE OLDEST PROPOSAL.

Recently the Topeka Mail and
Breeze offered prize for the oldest
instance of "popping the question"
The prize was won by Mrs. Fannie
R. Bevard, of Abilene. She locates
her story in Western Kansas settle
ment. A large family lived in a very
small house. In one corner of the
single room the old folks had their
bed, and above it was a swinging bed
attached to the rafters that was oc-
cupied by the boys. Mrs. Bevard
complete the story as follows:
"On this particular evening neigh
bor's girl, who was also the oldest
boys sweetheart, was there visiting
the girls, and she stayed all night
with them. With games and songs
and lots of laughing and talking the
evening soon passed and bedtime
came.
"Miss Jessie being their company,
the girls gave her the front Of the
bed, and there was one small girl who
slept with the older girls and Jessie.
"The boys went to bed above, and,
OF course, the oldest slept on the front
side. Soon all were quiet, and the
anxious lover, supposing all, or near
ly all, in slumber, struck his head out
over his berth and whispered loud
enough for her to hear: Jessie are
you asleep?'
"No, was the whispered answer.
"'Will you be mad, Jessie, if ask
you something?'
"Jessie, guessing what he wanted
to say, answered again, telling him to
be quiet, for Tillie, his little sister,
was awake.
"But the anxious lover didn't hear,
and, not waiting to find out whether
his lady love would be mad or not,
asked: will you marry me?"
"And, fearing that he would awake
all the house if not assured, Jessie
answered, Yes, even if some little
ears were listening"
