Through Train Seattle
To Florida.

The Seattie Post Intelligence contains
= very interesting write-ap OF a new
through train between Seattle and
Florida. known as the Chicago, Mil
rvaukee and ST. PauF's ~Scutheasrsrn
Enmmeriand.'
This would be good were II not for
the fact that the train stops at Jack
gorv1lIe and does not come within 500
miles OF Pensacola IN fact, II just
hsts the northeastern corner q For
ada and stops.
This route ought TO include FensacoE7
even though 1t ends IN Jacksonville.
nv doing so, the northwestern tour
LIST could ride over 400 miles IN Flor
fda before ending his trip and get TO
a1ie destination almost as quick. With
stop-Over privileges ne could see the
Deep Water City and many OF the
other attractive places along the route.
Il Is easy to understand why Jack
momvi1le il the gateway to Florida"
for those people who come from the
e.1t. but for the life OF as we cannot
understand why railroad routes and
schedules should always be planned to
carry through passengers from the
west clear to Jacksonvilie to get them
to Florida when 400 miles Of Florida
raiEroad lie between them and that
city.
If the L. q N. railroad were inter
ested in handling traffic Of this kind
as it ought to be-perhaps the western
ana northern part OF Florida would see
some Of It.

Would Regulate

GIRL FRIENDS OF 40 YEARS
AGO SPEND DAY TOGETHER

Forty years ago, In the bloom of
youth, there lived In Ste. Genevieve
county three girls whose later for
tunes separated their currents in
life.
On Tuesday the 18th of June these
three girlhood friends met together
for the first time in forty years and
spent the day recounting incidents
of their girlhood and comparing
notes on their experiences in life.
The three were: Mrs. Jane Pat
terson of East Bonnie Terre, age 20;
Mrs. Eliza Richardson of Bonnie
Terre, age II, and Mrs. Richard Thur
man of Ste. Genevieve county, age
80.
Mrs. Thurman has been in our
city for some days and the little re-
union was planned and arranged by
Mrs. Patterson, who, ut her home
In East Bonnie Terre, prepared an
old fashioned dinner, the principal
feature of which was a real peach
cobbler.
In addition to exchanging expert
ences and having good dinner the
young ladies busted themselves In
that old fashioned favorite pastime
so favorable to the relation of neigh
borhood experience, they quilted,
the quilt being made from cotton,
the seed of which was planted by
Mrs. Patterson, the plants being
aised by her, the crop harvested
and made into bats.
In addition to the three girl friends
Mrs. John Harrison was their guest
for the afternoon. - Bonnie Terre

&aS July, ~ the day when the
pent-up patriotism of the
nation lets go and manfests itself
in fireworks, excursions and pic
mics, and in too many cases an
over.indulgence in liquids, spir-
ituos and otherwise, to arouse the
patriotic fervor TO the proper pitch.
After it is all over and the returns
come in, the fatalities are close to
the number of killed and wounded
in some of the memorable battles
of revolutionary days. But the
patriotic American man and boy
must celebrate the interesting event
of the natal day of the land Of
the free aud the home of the
brave" and what $ the odds if a
few accidents do happeni The
smell Of powder, the pop Of the
fire cracker and the sky.rocket
bombs bursting in air are re.
minder of the patriotic clashes OF
arms away back there in l77G and
the daring of our sturdy forefath-
ers. The American boy is genu-
inely, explosively patriotic, and he
does love a noise, and recks not
Of the danger of the fireworks made
so delightfully."- resonant by the
more powerful explosives disc0v-
cred by the genius of man-he's
willing to take all risk. Well, we
liked it when we were boy and
we like TO see the boys Of Oday
enjoy themselves, but we always
feel like saying, Boys, be care
ful, as if that might do some
good
But we are going to add Just
here little more than that admo-
milton. Do you know how many
people are accidentally killed each
Fourth Of July while celebrating
this honored day From 1903 to
1912 inclusive, l., 739 persons have
been killed and 3S, 069 wounded
men, women, boys and girls-or an
average Of 1893 deaths and
3,S0G.9 wounded for each Fourth
Of July. That is an average of
killed and wounded for q pretty
good.sized battle. This awful
number of casualties on this one
day of each year has caused some
of our more thoughtful people and
newspapers to urge and try to
bring about saner and more
rational way Of celebrating this
day which all Americans love to
honor, and it appears to be having
some effect. In 1909 there were
215 people killed on the Fourth
and 5000 injured; in 1910 this
was reduced to l3l killed and
1872 injured; in 1911 it fell to 81
killed and ,546 injured and last
Fourth OF July there were only &c
killed and $50 injured. Well,
that's getting along some in the
direction of more rational cele,
bration, and let us hope that to-
morrow will pass without a single
boy or girl, man or woman, being
hurt through any device of cele'
brating the day.
But, boys and girls, make al
the glad noise you want to, shout
out your patriotism, wave "Olt
Glory" on high. show your pride o.
and delight in your country ant
have good, glad glorious time
for yours is the best, freest, proud
est and bravest nation in tn,
world. and you are the loyal de.
tenders of its future.

Raphsody On Sausage.

A friend has sent us some country sausage. 1t is a poem. It is as delicious as a dream. It is the work of the divine affiatus, blending the flavor of the wild nuts with the fragrance of the woodsy soil. It is not a mere fixture of this and that: it is a harmony of loves and longings. Food is not half material. It is not a little bit of flour, of sugar, of lard, of egg-it is the spirit that builds them into a harmony.
 When God made the rainbow He didn't put in a bit of green, of red, of yellow, etc.; no, he blended the colors together with the song of the stars and made a symphony out of them that out metered anything the old mast ars ever writ.
 It is the spirit that goes into the food that makes it. If that is evil the food is evil; if it is good, the food is good. Old Parhassius couldn't paint a dy- ing groan, but he could put it in pudding and make it taste. Most of the bad food we get tastes of the ignorance of the i"- norance and bad temper of the cook. Half the difference be- tween barbarism and civilization is found in the kitchen. As a man thinketh in his heart, so he is-so are his pies, his salads and his hash.
 The greatest arena of art in the world is the kitchen. There is where the highest aesthetic qualities get in their work Young ladies will learn painting and music and French and get taste of the ethereal sweetness of things, but neglect the kitch- en, which is the source and em- bodiment of all the graces and ioys of life; not so much in the eating, but in that delicate bal ancing of favors are the rythm of life that makes one feel sure the gate to Paradise has been left ajar, through which its
