GROWING OLD.

I am growing old.
The passing of time in it's onward flight
The sunshine of morn. the dews of
night,
Summer heat, and winters cold.
The swelling bud in the springtime of
youth.
And the ripened fruit in autumn, in
truth,
All tell me, I'm growing old.
I am growing old.
My bright hopes have fallen, one by
one,
And my journey through life will soon
be run,
And the evening bells be tolled.
For the years pass swift as an eagles
flight
While 1 sit and dream in the soft
twilight,
And feel that I'm growing old.
/ am growing old.
Ny STOPPING form and my locks grown
white,
My unsteady tread, and fast failing
sight,
And the cane / firmly hold,
All sadly tell Of the passing years
Beginning with hope Of fraught with
fears,
And 1 know I am growing old.
I am growing old.
The mist that hangs between me and
heaven
Will be parted soon, and the curtain
riven,
VIII the future to me unfold;
And the boatman grim on deaths dark
Will soon bear me across the tide
forever,
For, alas, am growing old.
I am growing old.
But the road to old age has no turn
for me,
I have crossed the wild waves of q
youthful sea,
Where passion ran high and bold
So I'll calmly sit down and wait for
the day
That will watt my soul away, far
away,
For l have grown old, quite old.

CHATTERTON and
Travellers Page
SAYS THE PAGE is ALL RIGHT
AND TELLS HOW THE FORUM
GAVE CHANGE OF RAILROAD
TIME BEFORE AGENT KNEW or
IT-oFFERs GENERALIZATION.

The following letter written by w
A. Chatterton, the well known travel
ing man to The Forums Travellers
department will be read with inter.
est:
Fargo, Aug. 1, 1910.
Dear Sir: Your paper is entitled to
congratulations for having a news
item concerning railroad time ahead
of the ticket agent.
The writer with several other
knights of the grip happened in Oriska
last Monday and your paper arrived
In the evening, which gave the news
that on account of the fair the train
that leaves Fargo at 6:O5 would leave
one hour later. / asked the agent why
the train was one hour late and he
didn't know but The Forum had it, so
we finished our little game OF whist in
Smiths lumber office.
Regarding that little piece Of news
naturally you got your information
from the n. P. at Fargo, but the fact
remains that your paper gave the
news to the crowd at the depot at
Oriska before the agent there had it.
One salesman by the name of Holen
from saltwater made a sale of a car
load of salt during the extra hour, and
told him to thank The Forum for it.
Your Travelling Mems column is
good. 1 see that you have news to-
night from my home state. I belong
to Fl. Worth, Tex, council, No. II,
and call your attention to an article
in the next months Sample Case on
Statesmen Contracts by yours truly.

HOW TO BUILD A CAMP FIRE.
A Bit of Practical Information That
Will Soon Come in Handy,

Horace Kephart in Outing: Gather a
small armful or sound dry twigs from
the size of lead pencil to that of your
finger. Take no twig that lies flat
on the ground, for such are generally
damp or rotten. Choose hardwood, If
there is any, for it lasts we'll. Select
three of your best sticks for kindling.
Shave each Of them almost through,
for half its length, leaving lower end
of shavings attached to the stick, one
under the other. Stand these in a tri-
pod, under the hanging pot. with their
curls down.. Around them build a con-
ical wigwam OF the other sticks, stand
ing each on end and slanting to a COM
mon center. Leave free air and spaces
between the sticks. Fire requires air,
and plenty of it, and 1t burns best
when 1t has something to climb UP on !;
hence the wigwam construction. Now
touch off the shaved sticks and in a
moment you will have a small blast
furnace under the pot. This will get
up steam in a hurry.
Meantime get two bed sticks, Ave or
six inches thick, to support the frying
pan. The firewood will all drop to
embers soon after the pot boiIs. Toss
out the smoking butts leaving only
clear, glowing Goals. Put your bed
sticks on either side, parallel and level.
Set the pan on them, and fry away.
So in fifteen or twenty minutes from
the time you drove your stake, the
meal will be cooked.

PLAN oE TIPPING.
You Can Easily Overdo the Gift Bust
ness to the Walters,

You Can Easily Overdo the Gift Bust
ness to the Walters.
The system Of tipping as it at pres
ent prevails, is an illegitimate form of
perquisite, without standing in law
or good reasonable grounds of usage.
The nearest approach to a justification
Of the tipping habit (it is largely a
habit), is on the ground that hotel and
train employees continually render per
sonal service to travellers beyond what
they are paid to perform by their en-
ployers. If this valid excuse-if we
must pay side money, why not handle
1t as they do at a certain provincial
hotel in England.
In a circular announcing prices at
this house, there is foot note stating
that each guest will be charged, in
lieu of all tips a shilling extra a week.
the sum so received to be divided by
the management among all employees.
This plan has been followed at this
house for eighteen years with great
success. The landlord pays the high
est wages and gets the best help he
can obtain and the employees prefer
the certainty Of the extra fee they re-
cetve each week to the fluctuation of
tips. The guests like the plan, for they
know just what their tips are going to
cost them and the whole matter is
handled in one transaction.

WHAT jim HILL SAYS.
Says BY Fall Railroads Will Say "can
Not Handle the Traffic."

wv AitV
James ]. Hill is out with a predic-
ton that by next fall we are going to
again hear the familiar complaint by
the railroads that they cant handle
the traffic" He cites the statement Of
the interstate commerce commission
that the tonnage offered the railroads
is rapidly increasing, while the rail-
roads facilities for handling it are
practically unimproved. The result is
not only logical but inevitable.
What this country, with its great
distances and large volume Of bust
ness, needs is greater facilities In
waterway transportation. The rail-
roads have shown themselves made
quate to handle our bulky commodities
and our only relief must be a great
system of internal waterways by rivers
and canals to relieve the transporta-
ton pressure and give us a chance to
expand and grow. Conservatism in
the expenditure of money is a wise
thing; but there is no longer an ex-
cuse of this kind wnen conservatism
on the one hand means waste and loss
on the other. Improved waterways are
no longer a dream. They are needed
now. The country's progress Is
blocked for the lack of them in the
opinions of our ablest and Wisest
transportation men. How long must
the country hobble along in this con-
dition while congressman bubble and
quarrel over less significant matters 4?
Is it not fully time that our national
lawmakers should catch step with the
business interests of this country and

from him. If you can once show a
man that he is actually losing money,
and that you can stop the loss, you
won't need to supply him with any
enthusiasm-he will take fire himself
like lace curtain in a gas jet. But
you've got to be earnest in making
these facts plain to him. Enthusiasm
