NOT EASY TO BE A GUEST.
Demands Consideration for Hostess as
Well as Pleasure for Visitor

demands Consideration for Hostess as
Well as Pleasure for Visitor.
There are rules for your behavior as
a guest which the girl who goes
a-visiting will do we'll to consider, says
the September Delineator.
Suppose we begin at the very be-
ginning. You have been asked by
letter for short visit of week or
two. Be sure in answering 1t to re-
neat the days for which your hostess
has asked you. This is the first rule
on your part Also state In your
acceptance the train on which you
arrive and, If you wish, add the train
on which you will depart.
Whether or not you do the latter,
never fail to do the former. Don't
miss that train or chance your nina
and take another one.
See that your baggage gets on the
train with you.
Attend to your baggage checks at
the station yourself, unless you are
met by a man of the family or com
petent man servant who insists upon
taking this duty on himself. 1t is
best to give your checks to the bag
gage eXpressman who comes through
the train, pay him and get a receipt
Have the change in your pocket
book to pay for the trunk when II
arrives at the house. Never borrow
the money from some one in the house
or let your hostess pay for It,. There
is no intimacy or even relationship
between friends that will allow this,
From the moment you set foot in
the house, whether the visit be for
days or weeks, remind yourself over
and over that all things in it, from
the telephone to the chambermaid
are another persons property, and
that YOU must seek permission for
their use.
Do not make demands on the ser
wants in the house, They have other
duties. When they offer their ser
vices to you accept them graciously
but do not call the maid to faster
your gown fifteen minutes before din
ner is served when she has to wait
on the table.
Ask the hours of meals and be
punctual. Write that in your mind in
letters of fire. 1t makes no difference
whether you are hungry or not, al
the appointed hour be at the table.
Do not bother your hostess by re
manning at her side all the time. Lei
her go about her household duties oil
10 her room for brief rest, without
following her around.
II you are visiting in house where
there are no servants, and where the
Homework is done by the family, ther
you should try in every way to be Of
help. It takes quite little tact tc
md out whether you are in the way

WILL BUILD SOME DAY.
Union Pacific Will Enter Lincoln With
Good Line,

Lincoln Journal: Not great while
II is declared that not great while
ago General Manager Mohler dis
cussed construction of the long talked
of Omaha-Lincoln line in manner
that indicated he has no doubts that
the road will be built. When it will be
built no one knows now, of course.
Mr.. Hartman said at Omaha Tues
day that the road would begin building
again when revenues warrant build
ing.
NJ Mohler is credited with having
said that when the road is built 1t
will be a standard" line with low
grades and double track. The surveys
for this line took little account of the
natural distractions in the way of
building a raiload, and If the line is
built there Is feeling that 1t will be
one of the best in the state, con-
structed in such manner that much
main line traffic will pass over 1t.

road activities in this section during
the next few months as 1t ever has in
past years. A heavy movement of
stock is expected, a movement which
will exceed that of last year in vol
ume. BY the middle of this month
the range movement will be at it's
height. The big rush lasts two
months.
The cattle shipping season means
more trains and more train crews.
1t is great period of railroad activ.
ity. 1t means added resources to
Norfolk and other towns where rail-
road interests are important. The
Northwestern has been filling up its
force and is now running eighty per
cent of the maximum force.
Sheep Movement Grows.
This will be record year for
she6p shipments through Norfolk.
The tributary country in the Black
Hills territory is increasing rapidly
in Importance as sheep raising
country. About 1000 cars of sheep
will pass through Norfolk this year,
number never before approached.
The sheep movement is already heavy.
10000 Cars This Season.
The cattle run Is very good. Rail-
road officials in close touch with the
situation estimate that 10000 cars
of cattle will pass through Norfolk
this season. To set new record
About 400 cars week are passing
through Norfolk just now from the
range country. About $50 cars come
from the main line, about so cars from
Dallas, 8. D., on the Bonesteel line.
The main line between Long Pine and
Chadron is furnishing some so cars,
the Casper line about 100 cars and the
Belle Fourche country about 200
cars. When the rush season is on be.
tween 600 and 700 cars loaded with
range cattle will pass through Norfolk
each week. The range movement set
in about the middle of last month. 1t
will run until the latter part of No
vember Last fall the panic cut the
season short, cattle which were ready
for shipment, and some in cases even
in cars, being turned back on the
range when the bottom fell out Of the
market.
1t has been interesting to note that
the movement of cattle through Nor
folk has not been perceptibly affected
by the South Dakota extensions.

Wayne Herald: Six cars of fruit
and car load of beer went into the
ditch on the Omaha road near Thurs
ton, Tuesday, caused by spreading of
the rails as a result of expansion
from the heat. The train was a fast
header. The first engine passed over
the defective spot all right but the sec
ond engine left the rails although it
stayed on the ties, the seven cars
Immediately behind the engines were
sent crashing into the ditch and the
track torn up for a distance of 300
feet. The Sioux City train from Sioux
City to Norfolk was over an hour late
here as a result of having to wait at
Emerson for connection with the de-
layed train from the south. No one
was injured by the freight train wreck.
North Platte Tribune: William JEFF
fers, who has been in the service of
years will be retired August first and
receive a pension from the company.
Thirty-five years of faithful, consecu-
tive work should entitle any man to
a respite from labor; thus allowing
him to spend the evening of life in a
peaceful, pleasant manner To Mr..
LETTERS is extended the wish that the
remainder of his life may prove such.
One of the oldest railroad men in the
country in point of service is George
Hough of Bluffs, Ill.,, a brother of
Dayton Hough, who recently visited
friends in this city. Mr.. Hough has
been on the rails, either as brakeman
or conductor, for fifty-five years, and
it is estimated that he has during that
time travelled one and one-half mil
lion miles, or sixty times around the
earth. Mr.. Hough has four sons, and
all are following their fathers voca-
ton.
