A WOMAN
FOUGHT A TRUST.

This is the story OF a woman's
triumph, or how Mrs Kate Kehoo de
feated a trust. The recital OF it was
one of the dramatic features at a
hearing OF the Interstate Commerce
Commission at Omaha.
When her husband died he left
Mrs. Kehoe shovel houso'--a sort
of warehouse without elevators. She
decided to continue the business of
crsin buying.
Perhaps IL she had known what
was ahead of her she would have
given over the intention.
Every obstacle that ingenuity could
invent was thrown In her way. 1t
was the determination OF shrewd,
powerful business men pitted against
a woman's wit aud resource. But
she kept on.
The little shovel house was burn.
ed. That would have ended the
struggle OF tho average man. But
Mrs. Kehoe bought grain from the
wagon and loaded IL direct into the
car.
In graphic words she told the com
mission OF her difficulty I'm getting
cars while her competitors secured
all they needed.
But IL was over prices that her
greatest fight was made. The trust
electors raised prices in her town.
and tried Co drive her out. She
sought new markets, and made tho
trust lose n lot OF money.
For ten years this plucty woman
fought the railroad company and the
grain trust.
About four years ago she built two
elc ators, and the railroads ceased
their war on her But the persecu-
ucnr OF the trust managers became
more severe. Finally, finding the 1T.
tie woman could not be beaten out
of business. the trust let her alone,
and she now has "A prosperous trade
Even commerciallsm has its heroes
and heroines.
The story of how woman de-
feated n trust is worthy of more than
newspaper mention. Properly told
by the historian II would be faith

individual fought each other strenu-
ously as did the gladiators in the

Newcomers Among Flowers

AY VOWEL introductions from Japan
IN have frequently made their APP
- pearance during late years, and
invariably they proved to be good.
Probably one Of the best is a hardy
lowering shrub Of recent introduction
known as Styrax Japonica. It is Of
low.growing dwarf habit like a small
tree, altho it bears no resemblance to
the so.called dwarfed trees Of Japan.
It is simply one Of the smaller growths
SO desirable for adding to the bed Of
hardy ornamental shrubbery. The
bark is smooth and light colored, the
leaves small and round, and the blooms
are puro silvery white, dainty bell
shaped and highly fragrant, and hang
from the branches in great profusion.
This novel shrub Is entirely distinct
from Cydonia Japonica, more commonly
known as the Japan ounce, which
bears the big snowy clusters Of bright
crimson flowers, and which blooms very
early in the spring The Styrax Jap
onica does not bloom until June, which
makes it still more desirable-for keep
ing up the Towering season after the
other Japonicas have faded. It is one
Of the good novelties well worth in
