WHO GETS THE REFUNDo

Within a short time some $1,000
900 will be refunded by the railroads
of Minnesota to several hundreds or
thousands Of people. This sum ia
made up OF the difference between
rates for freight and passenger trans
portation actually collected by the
railroads during the past few years.
and the rates prescribed under a state
law which was contested by the roads.
and which the supreme court has de-
clared to he constitutional. In the
ase Of passenger fares the difference
amounts to one-third of the
paid during that time. The difference
in freight rates varies with the CLASH
fcation. The law having been de-
clared valid, all persons who can fur
MIS-, proper evidence of having paid
the greater rates will he entitled to a
refund of the difference. Who gets
the money?
Freight charges constitute a part
of the cost Of merchandise to the con-
sumner. The retailer must add the
freight to the other costs, and receive
his percentage Of profit on the entire
investment if he is to do business on
4 paying basis. Hence, the presump-
ton is that on all the merchandise
shipped during the time when this
law was under contest. the actual con-
sumner OF the goods has paid the whole
bill. If the retailer paid the freight
he will be entitled to his refund. If
the jobber paid the freight he is the
man who Will receive the money. Will
the money be distributed among the
consumers who have paid it in slight
ly increased prices on goods? Hard
~. Such a thing would be impossi-
bic. There is no record of who bought
the goods. and II there were the
division Of the sums into the small
fractions necessary would be utterly

And yet, there is no good reason
to believe that this money will not
get to the right people. after all. For
one thing. the persons who have paid

FIRST TEST OF BAROMETER
Before Putting Full Reliance on ln- strument, Certain Precautions
 Are Imperative.

Don't expect barometer to tell you the truth about the weather until you have tested it thoroughly. Two common causes for unreliability are air and water mixed with the mer- cury in the tube. These can be ex- pelled by boiling the mercury In or der to test a barometer let it hang for time in the proper position. then gently and with care incline it so that the mercury may strike against the glass tube. If there is no air within you will hear a sharp metallic click, but if the sound is dull and muffied It indicates the presence of both air and moisture. The presence of air alone is shown by minute bubbles. If at any time the mercury seems to adhere to the tube even in the slight est degree, and the convex surface as- sumes more f1attened form, it is safe to conclude that either air or moisture IS present. In any of these cases the instrument should be put into expert hands for rectihcation.
 There are several kinds of barome. ters. The ordinary weather glass" in common use is more or less unre- liable and is easily made more so by careless handling. In fact, any bar. ometer must be treated with great respect in order to retain it's useful. ness.-Harper's Weekly.

Kind words and boquets are more appreciated by the living than the dead. It is not our in tentions to lessen the honors that we pay the departed, but we would like to increase the flowers that we give the living. When eyes look loving and laughter and when hands can press ours in friendliness, is when words of commendation can do most good. There are t mes when a word of praise for work we'll done will do a wealth of good, and spur one on to greater endeavor. Many weary workers fail because of the pressing call of business. There is power in ap- plause and strength in praise. Don't wait until your friends are laid in the silent grave, and their dull eyes look no more upon the beautiful earth and the starry heavens before you speak the words you have in your heart and should have uttered long be- fore. Words are but simple things but they can make or mar our lives and lives of others.

Sermon on Luck.

This is from the Village Deacon:
 I'll tell you about this thing of luck. It comes to the person who keeps the weeds cut down so that it can find him. Luck sometimes walks up and collars an idler, but is more apt to nab the man who is busy doing the best he can all the time. Luck isn't lying around on the streets allowing the loafers to cover it with whittlings. Neither is it in a stream waiting for some lazy fisherman to hook it. Luck gener- ally goes hand in hand with indus try. If you sit around and wait for luck to hand you bag of gold and make you rich man you ard pretty apt to end your days in the poor touse. A four leaf clover will bring more luck to the busy fellow than it will to the loafer. It may seem little for a man to work hard for a long time and then have his earnings all swept from him at a single stroke, but it is better tc have had it and lost it than never to have had it at all. And another thing; luck isn't labled. So it will do you no good to stand around ano look for il. When luck starts out to look for you, you won't be able to hide from it. Go to work"
