HIS RIGHT OF ADMISSION

A light-blue cradle. built in Hun

child, passed through Tie New York

writer in the Sun, were two babies.

The babies are twins, and were
born aboard a steamship of Bremen

New England factory, end has been in
America a few months. He sent his
wife prepaid tickets to his new home
mother on the trip, and so got the
village carpenter to make her a era

have only the cradle of the deep to

The second day out the twins came,

At Ellis Island the people in au

right of the mother and twins to en-.

S0th street decided to become sponsor
for them and they were taken up
there to be baptized. AS the mother
and the woman at the other end of
the cradle started TO enter the Third
avenue elevated at the Battery a gate
man halted them, saying:
You can't carry big bundles like
that on these trains"
An agent of the Austrian immigrant
home pulled down a coverlet from the
face of one of the twins.

Mo Hardness to Be In Love.

To be I'm love is not to be happy.
At least that is what Mrs. Elizabeth
York-Miller, novelist, says: 1T is bet
ter" says she, ito be in love than not
to be in love, but one certainly is hap
by only occasionally. One is inclined
to be restless and doubtful. We al
ways are rather annoyed to be thrown
into the society Of people in love. We
vaguely recognize the irritation, the
self-centered petulance of their moods
There is the cloud that always threat
ems to burst and the most rapturous
of lovers are mindful of the expected
downpour. 1t makes them suspicious
and miserable. II the man is late for
an appointment, il the girl does not
post the promised letter in time
nothing is too small to precipitate the
storm. Lovers live in a whirl of mis-
understanding and recrimination and
happiness is the last thing they seem
to get. For every moment of bliss
granted to lovers, a hundred tears
are shed. Sweethearts, tormented by
jealousy, behave as though they would
prefer to shut each other up in q
cage"

Nettlewick settled himself in his
chair. There would be no leaving
San Rosario for him that day. He
would have to telegraph to the comp
troller of the currency; he would have
to swear out a warrant before the
United States commissioner for the
arrest Of Major kingman; perhaps he
would be ordered to close the bank
on account of the loss of the securi-
ties. 1t was not the first crime the
examiner had unearthed. Once or
twice the terrible upheaval of human
emotions that his investigations had
loosed had almost caused ripple in
his official calm. He had seen bank
men kneel and plead and cry like
women for a chance-an hours time
the overlooking of single error. One
cashier had shot himself at his desk
before him. None of them had taken
it with the dignity and GOODNESS of
this stern old westerner. Nettlewick
felt that he owed it to him at least
to listen if he wished to talk With
his elbow on the arm of his chair,
and his square chin resting upon the
fingers of his right hand. the bank ex-
aminer waited TO hear the confession
of the president of the First National
bank of San Rosario.

hand.

FLAX is PROFITABLE
Wonderful Paying Proposition In
Western Canadian Prairies.

So much is heard of the wheat, oats
end barley grown in the prairie lands
Of western Canada, and so much has
been told of the wealth TO be made
out of the raising of cattle on
the succulent and rich grasses
of those fertile plains, that a
most important product has been al
most lost sight of. Flax. Recent press
reports advise us that on one of the
last boats to clear from Fort William
lat the head of Lake Superior) for
Buffalo, there were 241 900 bushels of
flax valued at $5S3,220 and on another
boat leaving the same day there were
2SS,000 bushels valued at S720,000.
There has been big demand for Ca
madam flax this season, and the lake
movement has been very heavy. Flax
is always sure crop, and gives to
the farmer who is anxious for quick
return after getting on his land, the
chance he is looking for There is
opportunity for thousands yet, on the
free homesteads of 100 acres, and
many of these are available within
short distance of the lines of railway
that are already built or under con-
struction. either on the main line or
branches. Resides these free grant
lands there is an opportunity to pur-
chase from railway and land COM
panies at reasonable prices.
The display of western Canada's
grains in the straw as well as
threshed grains and grasses recently
made at st. Louis was an excellent
demonstration of what the country can
do. II proved splendid as an illustration
of the resources of that vast prairie
country, which during the past year
has again proven its ability to pro-
duce excellent yields of wheat. oats
and barley-an.. fax. Not only this,
but the splendid herds of cattle are
a source of large revenue. There is

erature. copies of which may be had

After walking a distance of three

street of importance crossed the

another Rubensky's clothing empori-

towns two banks, the First National

his brisk step until he stood at the
cashier's window. The bank opened
for business at nine, and the working
force was already assembled, each
preparing his department for the days

the mail when he noticed the stranger
standing at his window.

He had had to make that statement

NEW YORK, June IA generally

were recorded In Reading. Erie. Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific. United

easily than 1t has done ror some days.
The reeessions in the leading issues
were attributed to various reasons.
The most disquieting influence was a
report that the Interstate commerce

for the weakness in Reading.
Government bonds were unchanged
while other bonds held strong.
After the first hour the market be-
