TIMES HAVE CHANGED.

More than 81 so, 600 in bonds Of
Sedgwick county and the city of Wich-
tia have been purchased this week by
the Fourth National bank of this city.
because they were considered a good
investment. The county bonds were
those for the building of the bridge
across the Arkansas river in this city,
and the city bonds were the $4,000
issue for the paving of North Lawrence
avenue.
A few years ago the banks of this
city were hunting eastern securities
and turning down home bonds. but
times have changed. Now the eastern
securities are begging for a market in
the west and the banks here prefer to
buy Wichita city and Sedgwick county
bonds rather than to take the best
eastern paper obtainable. No better
evidence of the prosperity and sta
bility of the west could be asked

The Girl Guide.

Mrs. Chapman Sinnickson, the west
ern lecturer, said in the course of a
debate in ST. Paul.
"Why shouldn't woman vote? She
is as clever as man. Cleverer in some
things. In affairs of the heart much
cleverer. I used to know pretty girl
whom young banker was counting
timidly. One afternoon in the garden
the banker scraped up courage enough
to ask in a tremulous whisper for
kiss, The pretty girl looked at him
gravely.
"A kiss she said. You ask me for
kiss. Now, applied to the hand, a
kiss signifies respect. On the forehead
it denotes friendship. Upon the lips it
indicates all tf1ings-or nothing.
'She paused pensively, then she
went on:
Yes. Herbert. you may. since you
wish it, kiss me. You may express
yourself in one kiss. Proceed
THE timid Herbert, red and con-
fused, pondered.
IS I mustn't lose her. he muttered to
himself. Where then. shall kiss her?
The forehead, the hand? Through re-
spect and friendship love may event
ually be gained; but if am at the start
Suddenly his meditations were in
terrupted by a trill of divinest melody.
The young man looked up.
THE girl was whistling, her red
mouth puckered into the shape of a
rosebud. Her hat was pulled down
over her eyes, hiding her forehead
completely, and her hands were thrust
up to the wrist in the pockets of her
Jacket" Z

The inoffensive muskrat, which

is in danger of becoming extinct as
the result of the increase in the auto

fact that there is a great demand for
