Little, the well known Bismarck
banker. Our readers naturally who

facts concerning his life will be inter-

gentleman. He was born in Penn

young man, Of character. He was

IN 1886 ard 1887, he was president Of
The Bismarck board of education.
From 1886 10 1889 he was Judge Of
Probate and in 1889 he was elected TO-
the senate. He became that year
chairman Of the judiciary committee
and he fulfilled his duties so well that
he has held that Office ever since.
Practically all important legislation
forms through this committee. so you
can readily see that he is responsible
in large degree for many Of our Inn
portant and best laws. In 1895 the
Capital National Bank was consolidate
ed with the First National Bonk Of
Bismarck and he became its president,
which Office he is holding today. Mr..
Little has pleasing personality, and

THE GRUMBLERS.

This world of has been kened to vale of tears
and valley of tribulation We into it with cry,
live through it in troubles and go out with howl of
guish.
One would suppose that under this state of melan-
choy fact the dictates Of duty and philosophy would
teach to make the best of it and to train our
thoughts and cultivate conduct and feel the
few blessings bestowed upon
This is the fact with the majority, and maybe we
would get along quite comfortably not for class
of grumblers who 90 about complaining of all things and
not content with being miserable themselves, insist on
making everybody else share in their stupid wretched-
ness.
The poet Rogers sang:
''Such joys find in melancholy,
/ would not if l could be gay
Sweet musical words, but cussedy mean sentiment
when it finds expression in constant discomfort.
If talks about aches and pains suppressed a
third of the conversation of civilized life would If
to this nerdced subject be added the weather. another
third would be chopped off, Still the female discourse
the troubles Of dress and servants would remain and the
chatterng continue
1t is amazing to sit and hear humanity, set end for
wise purpose, devoting much Of the brief time
allotted earth to carefully detailed diagnosis of
their headaches backaches stomach aches and other mis-
cries that defy description
The only comcal part of this business lies in the pa
thence with which each listens to the other He she
knows however, that his her turn next and the
luxury of unloading sickenng accounts of sickness will
be granted.
Many of us not miserable enough with the pains
of the present but up the pains of the past
as a constantly accommodating reservoir of misery.
If would forget it ALL and permit others to forget
it, what world of JOY, unseen, would open to us!

Toy Bo Lin wriggled impotently

demanded San Mong impatiently.
What would it avail you to

Lin as he shrunk from the sharp
prick of the blade, "the tong would
put We and the girl to death that

"ThOu reasonest we'll, San Mong,

With a bland smile San Mong
obeyed And as he touched the
cleaning eye a slender tongue OF
steel pierced his hand. The box
escaped his hand, and with muf.
fed groan he staggered and fell
heavily to the floor. With a cry of
agony the girl threw herself across
the twitching body of her lover.
Toy Boy Lin laughed fiercely and,
spurning the bodies with his foot,
restored the box to its hiding place.

But like all other human institu-
tons the woman's club has. its
weak points. And talk is one Of
them.
If you have ever noticed, people
who put in full days work
haven't much time to talk.
| have In mind a club of wealthy,
influential and well educated wom-
en-, who talk and talk and talk
about their city's filthy streets.
And not more than quarter of a
mile from the beautifully furnished
club where the talk lives a hand
full of ignorant, obscure women
who do.
| One morning these women took
their brooms and dust pans and
the children's little red wagons and
went out and cleaned their street
| Naturally, the affair created a
sensation. Politicians holding down
nice jobs in the street cleaning de-
partment said: This won't do
the whole country will be laughing
at us. We will be rediculous!'
Then they got busy and cleaned
the streets.
The woman's club movement is a
| good thing. Women together can
do more than any one woman
single handed. Also they can talk
more-and that is the danger to be
avoided.
The test of every woman's club
should be What has it done to
