WANTS KINDNESS IN GREETING
Post Objects to S%alutation Without
the Proper Spirit.

The poet was quite, cast down! A,
friend met him and asked after his
health, and this is what hea said: why
do people persist in saying Good
Morning when the spirit of Good
Morning is not there? Why not give
a blow? Then one could offer some
resistance to this Monday morning
sanitation from people who care not
whether the morning is good or not;
who only want to thrust themselves
upon you. Better, far, a silent en-
trance than a greeting from which the
life has fed. What does Good Morn
ing mean unless it carries sympathy?
So many Good Mornings and not
n little bit OF kindness-how hard
and metallic most of them are! The
first one I got was from aagruff man
with aaharsh voice. He has set all my
nerves to jangling, why could he not
leave me alone? Then, in T.. moment,
a girl came and bent over my Shout
der. Herrvoice was sweet and m
ly. Her Good Morning soothed me.
One day / came along Broadway.
The memory of the Good Morning
1 received will never leave me. 7
looked into eyes upon which the dew
Of the morning had falien-out of
which the light Of heaven had
streamed. 1t made the whole day diff

back at the gruff map If I had been
so greeted to-day" But, nay good
poet" said his friend, in a hurt tone,

thanked. no! You are the first man

let me. shake it again, and get into
sympathy with my kind" What an
odd fellow" said his friend, as he
watched the poet walk away.

Why Snow Is White.

The reaso that snow is white is that
all the elementary colors are blended
together in the radiance that is thrown
off from the surface of the crystals,
which may be examined in such a way
as to detect these colors before they
are mingled together to give the eye
the impression of Wilderness.
The Wilderness of the snow is also
in some degree referable to the guam.
tity of air which is left among the
frozen particles. Considerably more
than a thousand distinct forms OF
snow crystals have been enumerated,
These minute crystals and prisms re
fleet all the compound ray of which
white light consists.-Chicago Trib.

Red Tape in France.

There is now lying in the Paris
morgue a mummy that is the cause
OF a dispute between the police, who
insist that 1t is an unidentified corpse,
and the owner, who Is quite sure that
1t Is a piece of furniture. The dispute
is the sequel to a fire in a fiat. The
firemen found the mummy amid the
ruins of a cupboard. 1t was placed in
a sack and conveyed to the morgue
"for Identification" The owner of the
fiat has done everything possible to
get 1t back. But the police reply to all
representations with the question, rs

Shorter Dinners,

Nothing has done more to shorten
the over-elaborate dinner than the GUS
tom of restaurant dining. In a cafe
n feels easy at inviting people to

and soup, entrees and dessert would
many people dine in restaurants now

the guests"

LETTER r o BOULDER


Boulder, Colo, Jan'y rs, 1905
EDITOR TRIBUNE:-So far the New
year has been like Spring. We
have had nothing we could call
winter as yet. About four inches
of snow but it soon disappeared.
This morning at Z a. III. the MUIR
cory registered AZ degrees above
zero, and is a ane sample of the
weather We have had so far this
winter.
Business of all kinds has been
duller than any winter since we
have been here.
The panic, which did not seem
heavy in the west, caused a cur
failing of many of the expenses
heretofore INDUCED in.
A good many of the mines closed
down for a while, especially those
operated by eastern capital, but
are now opening up again.
We may have winter yet but
hope we will not have one in the
Spring to kill u fruit like it did
last Spring. We missed our cher
ries, plums, etc., which are usual
ly a heavy crop here.
Last July coal was struck about
thirty miles from Boulder and Il
new town has sprung up that bids
fair to be a hummer. Six mines
are now being operated at a
depth of 40 feet, with a vain Of
from eve to nine feet. Lots have
doubled in value every month
since. 400 people T now living
there; town Incorporated railroad
is built In; they now have every
facility for a good, substantial
town. A hotel costing S15, 900. 90
is under way. Alumber yard and
several stores are doing business.

Boulder in one of the richest agri-
CULTURAL districts in Colorado.
litigation bitches are being made

Colorado than has beeh opened up
