CROSSING THE COUNTRY
(Corlinued from First Page.)

out to do the day honor and those who helped to make our country what it is. The park is large, beautiful and inter- esting. We crossed a bridge high in the air; they call this Suicide Bridge, for there have been several who discOn- nected themselves from the life princi- pie by jumping off and being drowned in the river below.
 Speaking of the Sears -Roebuck Plant, will say that it is immense. You enter large room and a man notifies you that at a certain time a guide will show all through who wish to see it, and very interesting place it is.
 I have forgotten the number of acres it covers, the amount of goods that are sold from there yearly, the number of clerks employed, etc., but to those who visit Chicago, would say, go to the Sears Roebuck wholesale establishment and you will see very interesting little city all by itself.
 They have their reading rooms, their recreation grounds, their ball field, and all that goes to make life worth while for their clerks and employees. You are taken to the top of the tower from which you can see all over the sur rounding country and get the lay of the city, the lake and all that interests one along this line. The Field Museum we did not visit as l had been through it several years before, but we did visit the Field Art Gallery on Michigan ! Avenue, and in there I saw a most in- 1 teresting picture and that is q painting

mean feeling, for one feels like cu1- ding up into corner somewhere and sleeping off the nervous edge that has been part of ones life who has lived i'll New England and done the work necessary to be done OH New England farm; for there it is that a person is kept on the jump from morning until night doing the different kinds of work i required. Out here in the West where the man and the team keep at the same work in the same field for a week or two at a time one is not kept on that nervous strain that they are subjected to in the East where the crops and the work is so diversified that it is a con- | tinual change and constant rush in order to get the work done.
 The fields lie glistening in the sun and all nature seems to have a broad smile on her face today; sweet clover and pretty red flowers are growing all along the track, and as far as one can see, the fields of grain spread out before you, and in the distance men and teams can be seen starting for the fields, and occasionally can be seen herds of COWS NOhdihS bllSll way lO lI6 NuTu IO De milked. Our train is fast approaching Kansas City; the fields along the way are large and we'll cultivated and occa- sionally are to be seen large fields of Irish potatoes. They are out of the ground eight to ten inches and some of the fields must contain fifty or sixty . acres. This seems to be a very produc- tive country. I am told we are in Kansas now; poor. breeding Kansas, the breeding ground of cyclones, of Progressive ideas of government, and whose soil is made sacred by the blood spilled by the early Abolitionists. What a country this is for fine crops, for well kept farms, and we are seeing large numbers of cattle and hogs. What population this country will support when intensive agriculture is practised. Having is being done and they are about month ahead of New England. Large crops of Alfalfa are being cut and cured and put away for future use. Surprising as it may seem, Kansas has stone walls, not everywhere, nor mary, but just west Of or about Strong City, one can see them near the track This country will not soon be d manufactur- ing section, as the natural conditions do not warrant it, although some of the people here think it is going to get some away from New England.

Pelican and Flaminqo.

The hook of the ppican'S bill is red, and undoubtedly the fable that the pei. ican feeds its young with blood from its own breast originated in the birds habit of pressing the bill upon thu breast in order to more rnsily empty the pouch. when the red tip might be mistaken for blood. Another eXplana. ton is that the pelican became confus. ed with the fiamingo. which discharges into the mouth of its young secretion which in color resembles blood.
