A Chance Acquaintance.

The young girl who. makes a
chance acquaintance is running g
great risk. Many girls consider it
fun or a lark" to make a maScu-
line acquaintance without an intro
duction, and some of them pride
themselves that their attractive
ness invites the attention of the
man. 1t is not safe and usually
such a course ends in an embar-
RAISING situation if not in a fate
full crisis. A goodly number of
story books center their plots about
the chance meeting of a man and
woman Of course they are always
beautiful and fall IN love on the
spot, marry and generally the story
takes us only to the wedding. That
will do very well for the story book,
but in real life it is a different mat
ter. At the depots in all large
cities certain women are stationed
whose sole purpose is to guard
young girls from making these
chance acquaintance, for the men
who make such advances generally
do so with evil purposes, Many
young girls have made the &C
Quaintance of strange men in the
park, at the theater or some other
places of amusement often to her
undoing. 1t matters not where you
are, keep your dignity. The best
kind of a man will find a way to
get an introduction if he sincerely
admires you. If he has the kind of
courage which wins the fair lady
he will find out who you are and
seek proper presentation, and
that's a better kind of romance
than "scrapine acquaintance" on
the street car or in a place of public
-.

The suggestion of a two-and-one-
half-cent coin has recently been
made, and the idea has received
support in some quarters, particu-
larry in those parts of the West and
South where the nickel has been
the smallest coin in general circu-
lation. In the bonanza days of the
mining states the quarter, or two
bit piece" was the smallest coin,
but gradually the dime and nickel
came into general use there as else
where. They have not yet reached
the stage of using the cent, but are
willing to compromise in the inter
ests of more exact change. The
tendency, however, is toward fewer
rather than more coins. Thus the
twO-Cent and three-cent pieces have
been discarded here, just as the
farthing has disappeared in Eng
land. In this country, as in others,
the smaller gold coins are rarely
seen. Elk.

Don't Kill the Lady Beetles

Do not kill the lady beetles, for

else but work to your advantage.
Boys call them carriage bugs and
seldom know their Importance in
the orchard. Daddy longlegs is an
other of our friends, which we
should leave 10 his benefcient
work of destroying scale and other
insects.
Bad name as the house fly car
ries, the mosquito has a worse, and
it is the fashion just now to imag-
inc that we have solved all our
difficulties by publishing recipes
for killing these pests. Oft it is
doubtful if the world could long be
tenanted by human beings without
these insects to transform decay
into living matter. Their unac-
countable millions are busy at
this service; their internal thous-
ands have degenerated into blood
suckers and poison carriers. |

but the good done by them must
not be forgotten. Our work is to
control conditions so that
they shall not become pests. e. P

Benefit Of Intcrurban Cars.

AS a means to increase popula-
ton and prosperity il all the fertile
farming sections of the Empire
State, the operation and extension
of interurban lines is being made
subject of special study at the head
quarters of the Street Railway AS.
ISOLATION of the State of New York
in this city. Thousands. of new
settlers have already been brought
back to the soil by these railways.
according to reports just received
here, while the products Of the sol!
have been brought back in steadily
increasing quantities to scores o.
markets created at every junction
of their tracks.
Fully fourteen hundred miles Of
track are today being traversed
from farm to farm and village to
village within this state, by hun
dreds of the speedy passenger
coaches and freight cars Of these
modern rural railways, according to
the latest statistics. Four hundred
towns are directly connected with a
dozen of the largest cities of the
state on the main line OF these
roads, while a score of rich farming
counties are crossed by them
Almost a thousand more miles OF
interurban track have been pro.
jected to connect other agricultural
sections with the market CenterS
the records show, but hard time;
and the reluctance of capital tC
enter the present public service
field in this state are assigned as
! the reason for the present stagna
ton of such enterprises.
That the boys are kept on the ole
homestead by the convenient &C
cess to neighboring cities given b!
these local railways, is shown az
one Of the results noted in the re
ports of the State Street railway
men. Along many miles of rura
roads it is also reported that thu
advent Of the trolley and its passing
crowds has resulted in increasing
and improving in appearance thu

Whether you talk with your

have a good word for your own
town, speak of the beautiful homes,
speak of the nice streets, the excel

of your neighbors. Stand by your
town through thick and thin as you
