tiOns. to their sympathy for the

of his professors OF chemistry:
It seems that the professor and his

nestle question, the professor assert.
ing that his means would not warrant
the expense involved. His wife had
used all her powers Of persuasion
without avail, and at last resorted to
the final feminine expedient-a flood
of tears. At this the professor picked
up his hat, but paused to remark:
you might have saved yourself the

have absolutely no effect upon me.

HOW oLE GOT THE CARS
A "Romance" Of the Shipping Cendi.
tions-Sather Was Onto His Job
and Beat Railroad.

The story of "how Ole got the cars"
is being told. It is as follows:
.Parkhurst is little station Just out
of jamestown, this state. Ole Sather,
a lively and wideawake Scandinavian,
manages the elevators there. For
weeks sather had prayed for cars and
had implored the roads to send some
along, but none could be had. One day
last week train pulled north carry
ing on the end line of empties head
ed for Darlington, and other COM
petitive points. It was a big train and
on grade 1t stalled. The crew cut
on number Of cars and in the cutoff
were eight empties. They were to be
picked up next morning.
Ole Sather saw them. Like mad he
dashed for home and sent out to all his
friends and neighbors an emergency
call. They rallied to his side. The
cars could not be moved, but the grain
could be hauled to the cars. It was
a race against time. Teams strained
and drew the heavy wagons. lanterns
swung far into the night, men labored
to beat out the returning train crew,
and when morning dawned the eight
cars, loaded to the limit. contained TO-
900 bushels of grain.
There was much railroad profanity
and a threat to throw it into the snow.
but wiser counsel prevailed, the loaded
cars were finally moved and so 10000
bushels of Stutsman county grain that
at the present rate Of railroad service
might have lain there until next sum-
mer, was sent to market. Ole Sather
used to be a section boss before he
became grain man, and he under.
stands the railroad businass
