WILD HERDS LIVE In THE FAR NORTH
WEST.

ernest Thompson Seton In scribper's.)
What young man OF our race would
not gladly give . year OF bis life to roll
backward the scroll OF time for Eve
decades, and live that year In the ro-
mantle by-gone days of the Wild west;
10 see the great Missouri while the
buffalo pastured on its banks, while big
game teemed In sight and the red man
roamed and hunted, unchecked by fence
or hint Of white mans rule; or, when
that rule was represented only by scat
tered trading posts, hundreds of miles
apart, and ut best the traders could az.
change the news by horse or canoe, and
months OF lonely travels
I. for one, would have rejoiced In ten
fold payment for the privilege of this
backward look In our age, and had
reached middle life before realized
that, at . much less heavy cost, the
miracle was possible to-day.
For the uncivilized Indian still roams
the far reaches of absolutely unchanged,
unbroken forest and prairie leagues, and
has knowledge of white men only in
barterinS furs at the scattered trading
posts where locomotive and telegraph
are unknown; still the wild buffalo
elude the hunters, fight the wolves, wal
low, wander and breed; ard still there I,
hoofed game, by the million to be found
where the Saxon IL as seldom seen as on
the Missouri In the times OF Lewis and
Clarke. Only we must seek 1t all, not ia
the west, but In the far northwest; and
for "Missouri and Mississippi" read
"Peace and Mackenzie Rivers" those
noble streams that northward roll theil
mile-wide turbid floods . Thousand
leagues to the silent Arctic sea.
This was the thought which spurret
me to six months journey by canoe
And I found what went In search Of
but found, also, abundant and better
rewards that we're not In mind, even a.
Saul, the son of Kish, went seeking
asses, and found for himself q crown
and great kingdom.

home the poorer your town grows. Is
there any one who doubts It?
Out of every purchase made In your
own town, . certain percentage 10 set

When home trade increases, now
stores come and old ones do bigger
business. That means more clerks,
larger profits for the employer. The
inevitable result is the building of moro
houses for these people to live In. That
makes moro taxable property, and your
tax rate, II public funds are properly
handled, will decrease, and besides there
10 more money available for public i'm.
provsments.
A purchase at homo therefore 10 in

money returning to you, In increased
values of real estate, better stores to
trade, the building Of more civic i'm
provements.
A purchase In distant city 10 equally
an investment. but the Investment 10 for
the benefit of the people who live In the
city where the purchase is made.
