city in the country whose income is
$500 to 1.5oO year. who say they can
not live upon it. Such talk is born of
faIsehood and deceit, false ideas Of So
ciety, respectability, of standards of
living.
1t is the bounded duty of every man
and woman to be frugal, to live as
their means will permit. Moreover.
it is their duty to cut loose at once
from their false notion that social
recognition shall be based on the vul-
gar notion of the house people live in,
or the clothes they wear, or the table
they set. This standard leads to dis
honesty, scandal and complete break
down of sturdy American character.
1t is the real soul and source of the
flood of graft that has swept over the
country.
One of the methods of inducing and
practising economy is TO keep an ac-
count of every cent expended. The
result is the same as that gained by
putting punctured pnuematic tire
in water: it shows the leakage. The
weekly perusal of the daily expendit-
ure will show where the money goes.
Intelligent reasoning viii soon teach
where and how saving can be effected.
Start right now and keep an account
of how, why, when and wherefore of
every outlay. The result will horrify
you great deal, but determination to
rectify mistakes will do anything.
The best help to economy is self-help.

COAL SHEDS NOW COMPLETE

The finishing touches, in the way
of a coat of paint applied to the doors
gable ends and shutes are now being
added to the excellent new cement
coal sheds erected by Bossert Bros,
on their property one block west of
the Wisconsin Central Depot.
Messrs. Ira Basset and Geo. Kinister
are doing the painting.
These coal sheds are $50 feet in length
and 80 feet wide, built entirely of
cement, with the exception of the roof,
doors and shutes, and will have a
storing capacity of $4,000 tons Of coal.
That part of the building next to
the Wisconsin Central tracks is
divided into fourteen compartments
or bins, with cement floors, twelve to
be used for coal, one for cement, and
the remaining one to be fitted up for
an office.
A drive way extends through the
full length Of the building SO that
teams may pass directly through with
out the necessity of turning or backing.
Atthe same time team and driver will
be sheltered in loading from the sleet
and snow and cold winds of winter
No finer coal sheds can be found
anywhere than these belonging to
this firm and none will be more con-
venient in their arrangement and
location.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Or. McCosh Was Determined to I'M
press Visitor FavorabIy.

When Matthew Arnold visited
Princeton, on his lecturing tour, Pres
ident McCosh particularly desired to
have him attend morning chapel and
see how an undergraduate day be-
gan. Accordingly, he hailed Mr.. Ar
mold to chapel the next morning. I'm
fortunately, however, he had not con-
sidered what member of the faculty
was scheduled to preside at the exer-
cises. and, as it happened, the officiat-
ing professor that morning was the
very last one likely to make a pleas
ing impression on a critical visitor.
DR.. McCosh, as usual, rose to the occa-
sion. Thrusting Mr. Arnold into a
pew with the remark: Yell sit
there!" he strobe down the aisle and
up to the pulpit where the professor
was nervously waiting. Then in a
reverberating stage whisper heard all
over the chapel the good doctor said,
with unmistakable emphasis: 1--WE
have Mr.. Arnold here this morning,
Yen pick a lively hymn-and pray
short! And he strobe back, totally
unconscious of the discontinue of his
colleague and the glee of the under
graduates. Mr.. Arnold's face was ex-
pressionless.

THE GLACIER NATIONAL PARK.
Region In Northern Montana That Is
Continents Great Watershed.

The melting rills from the enormous
Ice masses of what will soon be known
as Glacier National Park help to feed
all three of the oceans that wash the
shores of North America, says a writ
er in the Worlds Work. 1t is posi-
BILE to alunch three ships from points
within gunshot of each other in the
park, which, with propitious currents,
will eventually float, one into the Gulf
of Mexico, the second into the Pacific
and the third into Hudson bay. Here,
amid the almost unexplored Businesses
of northern Montana, is where the
waters Of the continent divide-north
by the Little Belly river and the Sas-
katchewan to the Arctic ocean; east
ward, the Marias and Milk rivers take
the waters of innumerable lakes into
the Missouri and Mississippi, and west
ward glacier floods are poured into
the Flathead, which, through Clark's
Ford, finds it's way to the Columbia
and the Pacific Glacier Park is the
continents great watershed.

VERDICT OF $1,000
FOR PLAINTIFF

In the case of Charles Scheuneman
VS.. Charles Scherier, which has oc-
cupied four full days of the circuit
courts time in the trial thereof, a
verdict was rendered Tuesday evening
at $50 O'Clock of $1,000 and costs of
suit which will amount to two or
three hundred dollars more.
The verdict was fully justified and
it is hoped by the good people of this
community that it will not only prove
a valuable lesson to the defendant,
but to everyone. who looks lightly up
on such conduct.
Geo. L. Williams, attorney for the
plaintiff, is entitled to great credit for
the able and efficient manner in
which he prosecuted this case to a
final and successful issue. The de-
PENDANT was ably defended by Lawyer
W. E. Wheelan and every favorable
feature of his side of the case was
brought out, but the evidence was of
such questionable nature that it
was not believed by the jury. Such
conduct on the part of man IS years
of age with young girl only 16 years
of age is reprehensible.
The case of Mrs. Eliza Sparks VS..
Wisconsin Central railroad is now
being tried in the circuit court. The
suit is one of damages for the death
