THE H MANS PLACE..
A Little Lesson on the Policy of
Charity For All.

A Little Lesson On h Policy Of
Charity For All.
One rainy day l boarded a street car
ent weather long enough to rufie my
temper. The conductor stood OH the
rear platform, and I paid MY fare to
him there. He then went into the car
and to the forward end Of it, ringing
up my fare rs he went.
At the next corner another man came
aboard and took my place on the plat
form, while I went inside the car. The
conductor, well forward in the car,
saw me come in and supposed I was
the nan who had just boarded the car.
Presently he came back to me and re-
quested my fare.
II paid my fare" said l.
He looked doubtfully at me q mo-
ment. l didn't like it u bit. l thought
I had suffered enough through being
compelled to wait SO long for the car;
it seemed like rubbing it in to have the
conductor now stand there and by his
manner plainly tell my fellow passen-
gers that I was a five cent thief.
II paid my fare to you on the plat
form when I came aboard" 1 said.
Then he thought he had me.
II amt been on the platform since
you came aboard" he answered con-
fdently.
Now, right here is where Lincoln
came in and kept me from making a
fool Of myself.
with malice toward none, with
charity for all" said the great, good
man, at a time, too, when he himself
was the target for more shafts of NAL
Ice than have e been hurled by
Americans at any other American.
And the echo of the words turned my
anger into charity.
I had only to put myself In the con
ductor's place land that Of itself is
charity to see that he had some rea-
son for doubling me. I had only to
recall to mind that inspectors and spot
tiers are watching him and that II he
misses a fare he may be thought to
have stolen it.
With malice toward none, with chart
ty for all, 1 smiled and took him In a
friendly way by the arm. Leading him
to the door, I said:
IF that man in the brown derby
doesn't pay the missing fare I will"
The conductor opened the door, and
the man In the brown derby hat passed
up his nickel.
Then the conductor came back to me
and made a manful apology, and with
a touch Of that greatness which I had
borrowed from Lincoln for the moment
I eased the poor conductors manifest
embarrassment by telling him in all
sincerity that his mistake was a per-
fectly natural one; that had I been In
his place l should probably have made
it just as he did and finally that no
body but a very foolish man would
take offense at it.
Yet, dear reader, I don't mind connd-
ing to you that I came all fred lear to
being that very foolish man.
So by the aid of that momentarily
borrowed greatness I made a friend in
stead of an enemy-two friends, I may
almost say, for I was on much more
friendly terms with myself than I
should have been If I had let my un-
charitable passions rise.
Little matter, wasn't it? Well, how
many little matters make a big matter3

German field Guns Unsatisfactory.

Although adopted only a few years
ago the entire quick-hring field artillery
Of Germany has been condemned, and it
10 to be replaced by field guns similar
to those used by the Japanese. In the
people of our swn country have also
made mistakes. They have been de-
ceived time and again into trying this
or that remedy in the hope of obtaining
= cure but without success. Not so,
however, with those who selected Hos.
letters Stomach Bitters, for in it they
found good health and happiness. Bet
ter, by far. than anything else for the
cure Of indigestion, dyspepsia, constipa.
tion, billiousness, chills, colds, la grippe,
spring fever, impure blood, torpid liver,
and female complaints. That's why SO
many people stick to it so faithfully and
Why we urge you again to try a bottle

When Rent1Iea Die.

A Viennese naturalist declares that
nearly all reptiles that die from nat
ural u close their lives between
nightfall and midnight, only a few be-
tween midnight and morning and few
er still in daylight. Most reptiles seem
aware Of their approaching death, seek
ing out particular places and there
awaiting the end, while those whose
lives are spent underground come to
the surface before death.

the height Of about a foot. A handful
Of it looked like something just caught
out Of the sky above" In another par

Three Killed
In Wreck at MedOra thursday
MONT. Pat Reilly Among
the Number. Car of Sheep
and Cab0ose Went off lit
tie Missouri Bridge. H.
iured Ohio Man in DiCkin-
son Hospital.

Medora was the scene of a bad stock
train accident which happened Thurs
day evening at about half-past Q o'clock.
Conductor r. f. Browns stock train
was stopped for water at Medora, his
caboose reaching back to the middle OF
the Little Missouri river bridge.
Engineer Wager, a comparatively
new man on the division, came down
from the west, blowing into the caboose
of the standing train, knocking it and a
car of sheep off the bridge into the
river. In the caboose were four men,
three OF whom were killed, namely:
Pat Reilly, the we'll known Armour &
Co. travelling salesman; Henry Doty Of
Bowling Green, Ohio, and David Simons
of %Springdale, Mont. Harold b. STRAIT
ton, also OF Bowling Green, and a part
ner of Henry Dotv, OF the firm of the
Powell Cattle Co., escaped with COM
pound fracture OF the right leg. The
railroad men were all out Of the caboose
and none were injured in Conductor
Browns crew or in Conductor Cunning
hams crew of the train doing the
damage.
Mr.. Reilly was alive when rescued
but soon died. He made headquarters
in Fargo and is supposed to have been
a single man. The remains are being
shipped to Sioux Falls, S. ID.
David Simons had been employed by
Messrs. Doty and Stratton to go east
with the shipment of sheep and cattle
which they had just purchased in Mon
tana.
The N. P. took DIR. Perkins on a
special to the seen" Of the accident as
quickly as possible, and had MIR. STRAIT
ton removed to the Dickinson hospital,
where he is getting along nicely, and it
is believed that his leg will be saved.
Just how the accident happened is not
known. Engineer Wager is considered
a very careful railroad man, as are all
those Of the two crews connected with
the affair. The smoke from the engines
was very dense and may have had much
to do with the wreck.
The people of Medora were terribly
shocked when the news of the sad
accident was spread about the town.
1t is many years since the N. P. have
had a stock wreck on this division in
which lives were lost. The officials are
doing everything possible for the relief
of the injured man.
l.. A. Simpson, assistant states attor.
ney of Billings county, went to Medora
the night of the wreck and Friday was
present at the %coroner's inquest.
Trains on the road were delayed but
a few hours.

The Nourishins Chestnut.

The London Lancet finds that the
chestnut Is the most digeshble nut and
cannot only take the place Of the pota-
to, as In France, where chestnuts, boil
ed and mashed like potatoes, make a
delicious dish, but In reality they are a
more perfect form Of food. According
to the Lancet's analysis Of the potato
and the chestnut, the latter contains
less water, more proteid, more fat and
starch, but less mineral matter, than
the potato and is more digestble than
the latter. Like the potato, also, its
nutritive and digestive qualities are
greatest when baked or roasted.

Fish Out of Water.

Many people think that fish when
taken out Of water die because air has
q fatal effect on them. The real rea-
son, however, is HAT their delicate gill
6laments or membranes become dry
and stick together, SO that no air can
a pass between them. Thus they lose
the power to imbibe necessary oxygen,
and the circulation Of their blood stops.
The painful gasping Of a fsh out Of wa
ter is natures effort to free the pas
sage through the flaments.

Million Dollar CaterpilIars.

A few years ago a scientific person
in Massachusetts imported some cater.
pillars that interested him, and kept
them in a bottle. But one day the
bottle tipped over and some OF the
caterpllars escaped into the scien-
lists garden and presently stocked ii
with gypsy moths. To catch them
and their descendants the Bay State
has since spent about a million dol
lars of public money They have cost
1t many million dollars besides in
damages. The old method of fight
ing them was to find and destroy the
cocoons. The State finally gave that
up, much to the regret of many of its
citizens. The bugs have since in
struction into the woods 1t is now
proposed to fight these pests in the
latest fashion by breeding parasites
which will attack them. That method
is recommended by Mr.. Kroebele, OF
Alameda. Cal, who tried it SUCCESS
The Massachusetts Forestry Associa-
ton favors the experiment which will
not cost much, and Mr.. Koebele will
doubtless be invited to bring his para
sites to Massachusetts and sick them
on. The whole country is concerned
in this experiment, because a Massa-
chusetts Congressman has invited
Congress to declare the gypsy moth a
national enemy and to appropriate
$250,000 to fight him. The parasite
cure is modern wonder and has been
effective in cases of great moment.
Mr.. Koebele says it will not wipe ont
the gypsy moths, but will keep them
down. The boil weevil may presently
be restrained by the same Methods

Straiqht and Level Roads.

In the prairie State of Iowa. where
roads are no worse than in many other
States, there is a greater number OF
roads having much sleeper grades
than are found in the mountainous
Republic of Switzerland. In Mary
land the old stagecoach road or turn
pike running from Washington to
Baltimore makes almost bee line"
regardless of hills or valleys, and the
grades at places are as steep as 10 or
IL per cent, where by making little
detours the road might have been
made perfectly level, or by running
it up the hills less abruptly the grade
might have been reduced to or 1
per cent, as is done in the hilly reg
gions OF many parts Of this and other
countries. Straight roads are the
proper kind to have, but in hilly coun-
tries their straightness should always
be sacrificed to obtain level surface
so as to better accommodate the peo-
pie who use them.

Beauty of Shell Roads.

In many of the Eastern and South
ern States road stones do not exist;
neither is it possible to secure good
coarse gravel. No such material can
be secured except at such an expense
for freight as to practically preclude
its use for road building. oyster
shells can be secured cheaply in most
of these States, and when applied di-
rectly upon sand or sandy soil, 8 or
10 inches in thickness, they form ex-
cellent roads for pleasure driving and
light traffic. Shells wear much more
rapidly than broken stone or gravel
of good quality, and consequently
roads made of them require more con-
stant attention to keep them in good
order. In most cases they should have
an entirely new surface every three or
four years. When properly maintain
ed they possess many Of the qualities
found in good stone or gravel roads.
and so far as beauty Is concerned they
can not be surpassed.
