RAILROAD NEWS.

Another proposed railroad is a
line from Fort Worth, Texas to
the Colorado coal fields crossing
the Santa Fe at Higgins, Texas.
Hooker is supposed to be on this
line. Writing from Higgins a
friend says, Il believe this rail
road will be a go and from what
l can gather it will not miss Baca
County very far. If you draw a
line on the map between this
point and Denver, deviating a
little to take in Hooker you will
find that Baca County is not far
off the route. "

the railroad business for 30 years

TIME girl who, permitted by the dear
old fashioned kind of mother and
father to pass through Dream
Land while growing up, has had her
heart thrilled with stories of fairies that
come out of the hearts of flowers at
moonlight and dance on the lawn. She
has listened open eyed to the marvellous
good deeds of the Brownies and knows
that boy and girl giants are lonesome
because the Brownies, fairies, elves and
snomes run and hide at their approach.
She has had such faith in these little
dreams of youth that when she grew
up her childhood definition of fairy
never changed-some one pretty, and
all in white, with starry eyes and a
starry crown, and carrying a wand and
with wings
pretty vision, but such an injustice
to a girls real fairies! They are not
always pretty; usually not, and one
comes home tired at night and is some
times cross and detected, and the other
works hard at home all day, and her
tasks are not accomplished by waving a
wand. Sometimes she wears faded
clothes and usually they are old, and
her eyes are sweet and loving, but too
tired to be compared with stars unless
one compare them with the stars that
have shone brightly all the weary night
through and are growing dim with the
morning
Neither has she a starry crown on
her head Not yet!
But all through the day these two
fairies work to bring happiness to you
little girl, in the evening when you
have gone away with a gay crowd and
sometimes away into the night when
you are asleep they plan ways to bring
greater happiness to you. one of the
fairies will wear his overcoat-ah. there
you have guessed! Father, Of course!
another winter that you may have
the party dress you have set your heart
on. and the other fairy. your mother
will make a sacrifice of a needed hat or
furs.
| They wave a wand, Little Girl, and ii
! is the wand of personal sacrifice. They
! are not as pretty as the fairies of youl
! childhood dreams, but they are infinite
! ly more real, truer and better.
They are growing old in your serv-
! ice, but are never tired so long as you
| give them just a little love and appre-

Is the effort. that counts. He may not
bring to you ease and wealth and So
ciai position, but there are other things
that mean so much more.
The fairy who stays at home, turning
from task to task all the day through,
may not remind you Tonight of any
fairy you ever saw in the books.
But that is not her fault; the fault is
due to your vision which has never
grown up.
When you were little, your eyes de-
manded the white robe, the wings, the
starry crown, as proof. Now that your
eyes are older they show little wisdom
if they do not look deeper and see that
the real fairies do not go about clad in
fairy garments.
For your real fairies are your mother
and father. And from the time you
came into this world till they leave YOU,
they wave for you the wand of Per
sonal Sacrifice.
