BEAUTlFY YOUR STATION.

Beautliv your station,
When we see the flowers,
Each sweet relation,
IN the garden bowers,
Then we see revealing
Dignity sublime,
In a rapture stealing
Over-reaching time.
Beautify your station,
Try to gain the prize,
In the new creation
OF a bright sunrise.
Wait not for calling,
That you 'er may know,
For the night is falling
AS the shadows grow
Beautify your station,
Keep an honored name,
Then no degradation
Drags you into shame.
Keep the finer feelings
That makes manhood's grace.
Clear in all your dealings,
Shining in your face.
Beautify your station,
Be it high or low,
Seek the cultivation
OF the best to know.
Then you will have frightened
Others-for space
And their sorrows lightened,
Shining in your place.

When he was in Omaha recently

his friends new story on President
Roosevelt.
when President Roosevelt was
hunting bears and other big game out
in Colorado some time ago." Col. Cody
said. 1.-THE dogs which his experienced
guides took along got off their feed and
refused or were unable to do their work.
Needing dogs that would help to
scare up bears, and that would not be
afraid to tackle them when they were
scared up, the President addressed him.
self with characteristic vigor to the
task of finding them. He asked every
body he met where such dogs were to
be had for love or money, and finally,
greatly to his delight, he learned that
an old Scotchman who lived up coun-
try few miles could supply his wants.
accompanied by his guide, the Pres.
ident hastened to the home of the old
Scotchman, never dreaming that there
was man in Colorado who would re.
fuse to let him have the use OF his dogs
IT lie were willing to pay for the ac-
commodation.
He asked the guide to open nego.
tiation with the owner of the dogs
without using the Presidents name
The guide asked the Scotchman what
he would charge for their use for a day,
and the Scotchman answered that he
would not let the dogs 60 out. Then
the guide asked him If he would not
himself take the dogs out, offering to
pay him any sum he might choose to
ask. The Scotchman turned this pro-
position down, too, declaring that he
would not let his dogs 60 out with
other people and that he could not
spare the time to 60 with them him.

ground while this parley was on, but
now fearing that the negotiations we're
going to come to naught ii left in the
hands of the guide, he stepped forward
and addressed the Scotchmsn.
"My good FRIEND he said: you
perhaps do not know that it is the
President OF the United States who
wants to hire your dogs hoping by
thus revealing his identity to &C.
complish his purpose. But the old
scotchman was not impressed with the
importance Of the chief executive OF
the nation and remained obdurate.
"Hoot, mon, he said, 'is wouldna

Booker T. Washington himself. 1

"The President saw it was useless to
continue the negotiations and turning

Alec Rowe had sayq5 money as a
cowboy and had started sheep ranch
Of bis own. He was attentive to Belle
Clark, but was waiting for more prop

Belle was poor and wished he would
hurry up.
One morning while Alec was out
looking after his sheep he saw In the
distance something far more exciting.
An Indian WIS galloping across the
plains carrying woman. Alec could
not recognize her at such a distance ex
cept by her dress, which was red. Red
was the color OF the only dress Belle
Clark possessed. What would have
puzzled Alec had he not been too horri-
fed 10 think dispasaionateiy was that
there were no hostile Indians III the
nelghborhood- indeed. no Indians at
aIl-thcre being no reservation within
200 miles.
The Indian was taking his captive
from north to south, Alec looking d.

OF looking at the chase from compare

indian must make detour about 4 bit
Of swamp which would shorten the
distance between him and Alec. Alec
therefore shaped his course according

entered wood toward which they
were moving. He was spurred not
only by a desire to save the girl he
loved, but by 4 dread OF her being res

of rivalry between men In such cases
that Il Is questionable whether the lat
