I _
i115 FIRST KISS.
If only in dreams may man be fully blest,
Is heaven :1 dream? Is she I clasped a dream!
Or stood she here even now where dewdropii
gleam
41111 miles of furze shine golden down the west?
I seem to clasp her still—still on my breast
Her bosom beats; I see the blue eyes balm;
I think she kisses these lips, for now they seem
Scarce mine; so hallow‘d _of the lips they press‘dl
You thickct‘s breath—can that be eglantinc?
Those birds—can they be morning‘s choristersi
Can this be earth? Can these be banks of furzei
Like burning bushes tired of God they sliincl
I seem to know them though this body of mine
Pass‘d into spirit at the touch of hole.
~Theodore Watts in London Athcnmum.
A 1101111011 STORY.
They were the most contented family in
the world. The father was by turns a pros-
pector, atrapper or a rancher, but he never
succeeded in making a gool living inany
way. He was a remarkably handsome
mountaineer, tall and strong, and he looked
on honest labor as quite beneath him. His
word was his bond, be contracted no debts
that he could not pay, yet he often out up a
fat steer and dlvided the meat among his
neighbors, who sent him vegetables and gro:
cerics in return, and never asked where the
fat steer had come from. Perhaps they
know. When‘ a herd passed along the dusty
high road, the women smiled at each other
and said: “I guess we’ll hev some fresh meat
to-morrow.”
Sometimes he would drive into town with
a team of high stepping, smooth coated
horses attached to his rusty-old buck board.
Then his friends crowded about then1,,strok-
ing the glossy necks, examining the white
teeth, but no one in this little Mormon set-
tlement ever thought of inquiring where he
got them.
Dick Johnson was the kindest of men to
his friends and family, yet he had his record.
He would be lynched promptly if he should
ever return to Montana; he had shot a bridge ,
keeper who demanded toll of him, and, alto-
gether, the sudden deaths of a half-dozen
men were caused by the Well known fact that
“Ole Dick wuz mighty lively with his pistols
when he’d got.’nuff whisky aboard.”
'His wife did not always have a good print
dress to wear to town, the children were sel-
dom provided with shoes, but she always
seemed contented and lazily happy, and there
a
was not a merrier set of little ones. The '
mother was a fair haired, blue eyed woman,
and the children all looked liko her.
“The children mostly awl looks like me,”
she would say, with an amiable smile; "awl
of ’em ’ocpt Caddie, an’ I guess she looks
more like her pa.”
“You kin jest bet I do, and I’m mighty
glad I havn’t no towhead like these here
young ’uns,” Caddie would answer. She was
a remarkably handsome girl, and pcoplo who
admired her delicate, dark face were always
shocked when her coarse voice and coarser
language were heard. Of course, this encr-
getic girl ruled the whole family; the man,
who, in spite of his strength and ferocity,
was as tender hearted and simple minded as
achild, the indolent, amiable woman, and
the swarm of tow headed children.
Caddie had dreams of something different '
from the vagrant life that satisfied the rest
of the family. Sometimes she saw herself a
busy wife and mother, moving about the two
or three rooms of a log farm house, with a
few hardy flowers struggling for existence in
the small front garden, with currant bushes,
strawberry vines, and flourishing vegetables
surrounding the house, and with waving
fields of grain stretching away to the dark
mountains that bound these western valleys.
She confided these visions to her mother
01100.
“I tell yer what, maw,” she said, “when I
git married I hain’t u. goin’ to hev no soch a
ferlorn ’doby shanty ez this here. It’ll hev
to be a' log house, an’ dcrncd well plastered,
an’ whitewashed inside an’ out. An’ tliei‘e‘ll
be the purtiest rag carpet on the front room
flbzn' you ever see, an’ a good board floor in;
the kitchen, too. An’ I’ll hev a likely colt to
ride, an’ some cows, 50’s to hev lots of mi 1:
an’ butter, an’ yer bet yer life I‘ll be the boss
0’ the hull goldcriied ranch.”
“Yew’vo always lied fine idces in yew’rc
head, Caddie,” drawled her mother; “an’ of
yew marries Bishop Burns, like yew’ro pa
wants yew tew,1naybo he'll giv’yewalog
house; but: yew know well enuff that Don
Williams caint do no secli thing for ye.”
“Huh!” observed Caddie; “of that bull
headed old Burns ever. comes a shinin’ ’round
me, he’ll get sceh a crack in ’is jaw ’11 make
him see stars, or else my name liaint Cad
Johnson.”
“Wall, I guess he’d better not. risk it then,”
said the woman, with a feeble laugh; “yew’re
pa’s a hitchin‘ up the bosses, Caddie, an’ I
reckon ycw’d better pack thet thcro bit 0’
butter in a box, an’ mebbo ole Burns all give
yew some shoes fer it of yew’ro real nice
tew him.” '
“All right,” answered Caddie; “looka-
hare, youfl‘nm allllkick you into thgvuriddle
of next week if you don’t stop tryin’ to lasso
that thérc pig. Come along here now, an’
git yer face washed. ch’ro goin’ to the
‘Co—op.,’ 1111’ mech you’ll git some candy, cf
you behave yourselves.”
There was only one seat in the wagon, and
on it sat Dick Johnson and his wife, who
held the baby in her arms. Caddie sat on
the box in the back of the wagon, and the
children rolled around her in tholiay that
was always taken along for the horses to eat
while the women were trading in the Co—
operative store and the man was drinking at
the one saloon.
The road ran along the bank of the river,
whose gleaming bi‘cadths, soon at intervals
through the overhanging willows, together
with the long sweep of green, and brown,
and gold bunch grass that bowed its tas-
seled heads a; the breeze passed over it,
waving like a. many colored sca'away to the
dark mountains with their snowy tops,
formed :1. pictui'o almost sublime in its per-
fect loveliness. .
“That there gram 3; e‘en :1.-most ready to
cut,” rcniarlzcd old Dick; "1 guess‘I’ll borry
‘ the bishop‘s hay rick to-morrer, 1111’ go uft21'
a load 0’ buy, an’ you yungnns kin come.
along an’ Iirlp :rcanip it, of you want to."
The children set up a joyful shout, for
this Was a treat for them, it would be to
any one, to tumble about in the long grass;
to fish for minnows in the cool, gurgling
creek; to wade into it knee deep for water-
cress; to pick tart, wild strawberries, and to
eat all these delicacies with the sweet home-
made bread and count. _- And after
this delightful day, how pleasant it was to
roll in the sweet; smelling hay, with tho
breezes (tooling their sun liuriicd checks,
during the long ride home.
The wagon drew up at last in front of life
village store, and the girl lli:ll‘silzli(‘il_ the
children into the “Co-op.” with 11 good deal
of forcible persuasion.
“How do do, Sister Johnson." said the
storekcepcr, who was .1 ) the Mormon
bishop; “well. Caddie, i-rso yoifrc as fat
and sarsy as you err-r was."’ ‘
1 .
db
Caddie stared at I. .11 cm"- be-
cause she was offended at bi 11:13:13,
she was quite used to that; 1. 1 couth
cz‘mturc had as much natural economy as
any other 15-year-old girl.
“How much be you payiii’ for tip top but-
ter now?" she asked; "I’ll let you hev this
here, or you'll giv’ me 51x bits a’roll for it.’
“Oh, come now.” he said; “you don’t
want to do me out 0' all my profits like that.
Seein’ it‘s you, I’ll let you hev two hits a
pound f or it, an’ that‘s more‘ii I’d do fer
ciinybody else.”
“Well,” said the girl, “I guess I’ll jest
' ‘ look at some shoes, and if I kin see a pa’r I
like, I’ll take ’cm for the butter.”
Caddie‘s mother had gone with her numer-
ous offspring to visit a friend, aud Caddie
was left alone to do her trading.
elderly admirer took advantage of this fact
to plead his cause with the handsome girl.
“You‘ve got a party little foot for a gal 0’
your size,” be said, as she tried on a pair of
calfskin shoes, declining all help from him.
“Huh?” said the lady, too engrossed with
her task to notice the compliment; “yas,
these here shoes fits kinder slick, but I don’t
b’lieve they’ll hold water when the snow
comes.”
“Oh, tlicy’ll hold water fast enough,” he
answered; “but they ain’t half nice enough
for seek a liansum foot as yourn. Now here’s
a pair 0’ kid shoes I’m a-savin‘ for my wife.”
“lVell.” asked Caddie sharply, “then why
don’t you give 11m to her? Lord knows she
needs um bad ciiuil'.” ' ' ‘
”Now, look a-hcrc, Cad,” he said, “that’s
tomfoolishncss, an’ you know it; Mirandy
don‘t want for uo‘thiii’, and she don’t care
about finerics, but most girls does, an’ I tell
you what, my secoud’ll hev thcniccst duds 0'
any woman in town.”
Iaddic had put her shoes on again by this
time, and she did not propose to listen to him
any longer. t would not be wise to quarrel
with the bishop, but she had no desire “to
play second fiddle in 1'.» kind 0' music,” and
she told him so.
“Haw, haw, how," he laughed, “I guess
not. I kin jest see the way my 010‘ wouiun’ll
hev to step around when you air Mrs. Burns.
See here, Caddie,” he added, as she turned to
go, "I want to talk to you, an’ you might
jest as _chl listen now as onny other time.
You know your pa went prospectin’ last
year, an’ I furnished the grub for the trip.
\Vcll, he fornid a‘purty good claim, an’ now
an eastern company’s sent an expert out here
to look at it, (111’ like as not they’ll buy it.
Well, one night ycr pa got purty full here in
town, {111’ i got him to sign a hill 0’ sale of
the llllllc. Now he don‘t know nothin’ ’bout
the company, an’ he don’t know that the
paper he signed wuz a bill 0’ sale. I’ve get 1.1
grubbin’ on the mine, cnuyway, an’ I’ve got
mines o’ my own an’ inoney too, 1111’ I
wouldn’t mind givin’ this bill 0’ sale to you
if you’d, be ' sensible an’ marry me like your
pa wants you to”
"I ‘don’t b’lievo you’ve got no hill 0’ sale,”
said the girl, quietly; “show me the paper.”
Her face was dark with anger. She looked
very pretty, as she sat there in‘ 'tho dingy
little store, on a long packing box; rher "
glorious brown hair had been blown loose by
hurledllsuessedmabaanethm but}
Her ,
strings alifit‘her neck, her Blue eyes were
bright with excitement, and her brown
cheeks glowed. The bishop looked at her ad-
miringly as he returned with the paper. She
rose to her feet, and her slight, round figure
showed, even through the clumsy'pink calico,
its graceful curves. She moved round be-
tween him and the open door of the stove, in
which a good fire burned, for the, evenings
are cold in these mountain villages, and then,
as he read aloud, she suddenly snatched the
paper and threw it into the stove. He sprang
forward with an oath, but it was too late,
and when he turned to look for the girl, she
was gone. _ ‘—
The next day Dick Johnson rode up to the
saloon, and gravely announced to the loung-
ers there that he meant to shoot old Burns
on sight, and that the said Burns had better
have his gun handy. Then the injured man
began to fortify himself with whisky for the
approaching duel. .
“What’s tho matter with Burns?” asked
one of the crowd; “I allus thought that
you wuz on the best kind 0’ terms with the
bishop.”
“0h. he’s lived long enough, that’s all,”
answered Dick; “an’ my arms air a gittiu’
rusty fer want 0' use.”
His enemy had been warned, Dick was
drunk enough to be dangerous, and so he
thought there was no reason for waiting any
longer, and, rising. he slipped quietly out of
the saloon, and walked over to the “Co-op."
Arriving there, he stood near the door,
watching the proprietor, until the latter
turned, when the hands of both men flew to
their ready pistols, and the shots rang out.
The bishop fell, and Dick, who was a dead
shot, stood calmly looking at his, victim.
The murdered man’s wife ran in from her
rooms behind the store, and flung herself
down beside the body with a heart' rendiug
shriek. Then the men from the saloon rushed
in, and stood around, looking silently at the
bleeding corpse and at the poor wife, who
mourned the dead man as sincerely as
though he had been the kindest of husbands
to her. ‘
Her pitiful sobbing aroused the sympathies
of the rough crowd,_and they began to look
- nificantly to a coil of rope, lying on the
counter, but the rest looked at the revolver
still grasped in the fallen’inan‘s hand, and
they shook their heads. ' _
Dick Johnson saw and understood, and he
quietly backed up against the wall, drew
another six shooter, and proceeded to make
his defense. He told the story of the bill of
sale. “You see, boys,-hoswindled me. Now,
- you know, a man ain’t a-goin’ to be cheated
like that, an’ not try to git revenge for it. I
give him fair warnin’, ho had, his chance at
mo; I done it all up reg’lar, au' there hain’t
no call for hard fcelin’s agin’ me. I’m sorry
for her, but you know it ain’t my fault be-
cause her iuau wuz a scamp, an’ needed
his peace. These men were not cowards, but
they knew they could not take him alive
armed in that way, and, besides, they
thought his conduct quite proper, so he was
promptly acquitted by this informal jur ',
and he went quietly home.
Thus was rude justice done. Thus, too,
was it that Caddie did not marry a bishop,
but became Dan Williams’ bride—I. C.

The Age 'of Aluminum.
' Experiments have been under way at
Cleveland for some months which promise to
provide a process that will produce alumi-
num ata cost that will finally bring that
wonderful metal into all the arts. When
this is done the next century will, be as cm»
phatically the age of aluminum as this is the
age of steel. Ships, locomotives, railroads,
great guns, flying machines, houses,
churches, steeplcs, knives, forks, razors, sew-
ing machines, type, printing presses, and
every other sort of structure or tool in which
iron or steel is now used will be made of
aluminum as soon as that substance is pro—
duced cheaply and plentifully. ‘
that result will be reached. It is the mom
plentiful metal in the world. as it occurs in
common clay, and the trouble has been, and
is, to isolate it cheaply. It is light, tough
and strong, easily worked, and better
adapted to the needs of civilization than any
other similar material. then it can be
made for the same 'price as iron you will see
all the iron foundries close up or go to work--
ing it—and within a decade that result will
be reached. You may be certa'n that the
skeleton of coming civilization will be _mado
of alumiiium.——Chicago' News.
AN ESKIMO KITCHEN.
The Strange Lamp Used by the Cook.
Meat and Soup. "
Let us suppose that in the spring awhitc
man is traveling with a party of reindeer
hunters from tho seacoast, where they usu-
deer migrating northward in‘ warm spring
weather. Such trips I have made a score of
times, and while, of course, they will differ
even in essentials, atypical one can easily be
chosen from the lot. .
‘many little hooks and crooks of camping are
not working asharmouiously as they will a
little later on. The early morning of the
asleep in a snugly constructed snow house—
or igloo as the Eskimos call it—aud as there
is a long day’s trip ahead, to make a desired
hunting spot, it is necessary to rise early. Of
course, it has been daylight since about 2
o’clock in the morning, although the _sun will
not reach the vernal equinox for six weeks or
two months, but the Eskimo does not use
such early times for his morning work, but
rises about 5 or 6 o’clock to begin the day.
The first one to awaken at this hour arouses
the good housewife, whose duty it is to stars
the kitchen me. She simply puts on her coat
and prepares to start the fire directly in front
of her in the stone lamp which does the duty
of a stove. This is an open lamp, very simi-
‘lar to a huge clam shell, the flame burning
along the whole length of the free edge, or
from ten to twenty inches , usually. The
wicking for this strange lamp is a compact
variety of moss, which grows on the rocks,
while the oil is that of the seal or walrus.
The lamp is of stone, 9. sort of soap stone
steatite, as is also the kettle tvhich hangs
over it; the latter is a rectangular dish,
whose length is about that of the flame of the
lamp over which it hanga' Nothing in this
thick stone kettle ever boils, but simmers
away as long as the fire is kept under it,
until the meat in it is cooked in this way,
which usually takes about an hour with ten-
der meats like reindeer, and longer with wal-
rus and seal. The meat is cooked in chunks
varying in sZze, but averaging about that of
one’s fist, and when ready to be served the
breakfast is in two courses, to to speak.
First comes the meat handed around to the
party, who by this time are dressed in their
reindeer suits. When the meat is eaten, the
soup resulting from its boiling is passed
. around, and if it is very cold w‘éather, this
part is not considered perfect unless it has
an inch or two .of hot grease swimming on
its surface. This, undoubtedly, assists them
in resisting the intense cold of the climate.
With the meat, too, a large amount of fat is
devoured during the cold winter weather.-

1 Driving Out the Cattlcmon.
Immigration is coming with a rcsistlcss
tide. Err-Governor Routt, one of the great
cattle owners of the west, when speaking of
how the ranges were being so rapidly set-
tled. recently said: “The cow must give way
to'Naucy and the baby.“ The first indica-
tion of the coming of this great tide of im-
migration was manifested by cattlcmen put-
ting up wire fences and inclosiug vast areas
of land. This sufficed for a time, but immi-
gration still continued, and then after much
litigation the courts said: “Take down your
wire fences.” As the cattleme‘n occupied
these great ranges for a quarter of a century
before it was ever thought possible for them
it is not strange that they should have made
the determined fight they have. The plow-
share now glisteus in the old “American
‘ Desert” and the old cattle trails are being
turned into farms. The cast can hardly
realize the wonderful changes that are tak-
ing place. Within twenty-five years the
buffalo, which used to roam these plains by
the.tens of thousands, are almost extinct.
The great herds of the cattle kings took the
place of the bison, but now the cattle ranges
are being turned— into arms. .
What will be the result? The general im-
pression is that there will be inbre cattle, but
with more owners. The public domain will
soon all be taken, which will necessitate the
dividing and subdividing of the great herds.
The result will come about in a natural way
and without loss, but rather with profit. 'As
the grazing area becomes more circumscribed
the greater the necessity for winter feeding
and the production of somekiud of feed that
will more readily. prepare stock for the
market. Such feel consists of alfalfa,
s‘orglium hay, Johnson and other varieties of
farm grasses, oil cake, roots, etc., while in
' parts of western and southern Texas prickly
pear (a species of cacti) is being largely used
with cotton seed meal or oil cake, with
which it is claimed cattle may be easily fat-
tencd. The beef from animals thus fed is
said to be of a most excellent quality and
flavor.——D2uver Cor. Globe-Democrat.

This institution has graduated more successful business men than all other business
schools in the State combined. Bank presidents and other prominent and practical busi-
ness men who have made a careful inspection of the College and its several departments, ‘
and especially the banking department, where the books and methods are thesamc . as

CONTENT. '
Why should a e mourn o’er a sorrowful past
And crave for a peace that will come at last!
Each life hath woos that are keen to bear--
Its pains and Its heartaches and its despair,
It is better to laugh than sigh and grieve:
To sorrow 1n tears is not to live—
From paln win gain and be content!
Why should we fear in a halting place
To peer beyond with an eager face?
Each life hath gloom and bewildering waste
Where fruits grow fair that are bitter to taste.
It is better to haste through a thorny way
Than to haltfa its path to wait a new day—
Make fair each care and be contentl
Why should we sigh for a dear love, dead,
That was lost to our life by faith misled?
FJich life hath joy, that wins and slays
With its promise of hope and its sad delays
It is better to watch by a fading gleam ,
Than to woken to gloom from a vanished dream-
Endure. and thou art sure to find contentl
Why should we fail or falter 1n strife
'l'wixt good and the ill that prevails in life?
in reaching for heights, unblest or bloat.
Each soul of us hath some war with rest;
Crowned or uncrowned at the end of the figh'.
"I‘ls better to battle than flee in aflright,
Better to lose than to lament—
Iio hath enough who both contentl
'—Harr1et Maxwell Converse.
A Trick of Advertising.
One man after another stooped down,
picked it up, and, then dropped it like a hot
potato, while the flush of mortification rose
to his temples. It was at the corner of Clark
and Washington streets. Right on the side-
walk, in full view of passers by, lay a bank
book with a check for a. good round sum just
peeping out from it. At least it looked like
a bank book and a check. It was the closest
fac-similo of the genuine thing ever palmcd
011’ on an unsuspecting .and strictly honest
public. The little book was of the right size
and tint, was dented in the middle, as if from
frequent use, bore a number and a name, and
the two inches of check that offered them-
selves to view looked _enticingly naturaL
But, of course, it wasn’t a. bank book nor a.
check. You opened the book and you found
nothing but an advertisement of some in-
surance company in it. And that was why
every one who got fooled flushed such a
bright tint—more from sorrow than from
anger or shame—Chicago Herald.
The Umbrbllu in Canada.
I was walking on King street, Tomato, one
day with a gentleman, a Canadian, who was
carrying my umbrella over my head for me.
I noticed that every woman who passed me
looked at me with a superior smile or a pro-
longed stare. I could not understand it, as
my frock was plain and I had discarded my
jaunty American hat and had an outand-cut
Canadian chapeau, about which there could
be no mistake. Finally I asked my com-
panion:
“What is it they are staring at?”
“They know you to be an American,” he
answered, “ because I am carrying your
umbrella. A Canadian woman would no
more expect her escort to carry an um-
brella for her than she would expect him to
fly, but American women expect these little
attentions. They are used to them, they
take them as their right, and,” he added
gallantly. “Canadians are happy to give
them to the Yankee queens.”—Edith Sessions
Tapper in Chicago Herald.
Heart Lore Found in Books.
Therefore book knowledge is great knowl-
edge. Besides, the book is a material link
between two persons, a chain made of matter,
I mean, by which they can bind themselves
by reading aloud, and by enjoying together
not only the author’s mastery of the theme,
but also his force of language. his eloquence,
his poetry, his wit. Reading together is
great bond of union; also it has this advan-
tage, that there is heart lore as well as mind
lore in books, there being poets and story
tellers as wells as historians and philosophers.
There is no point or height in human experi-
ence which friends and lovers may not climb
together in books. They may choose from
the circle of the sciences or sweep over the
whole orbit of them—_“J. V. B.” in Globe-
Democrat
‘ How to Purify Cities.
Dr. John C. Peters says it would be an
easy matter to clean city streets and at the
same time purify the air. by the issue of a
dilution of bromine. Sixty cents worth can
be diluted in three or four hundred gallons of
water, which, if sprinkled on the streets,
will be found effectual in purifying the germ
laden atmosphere of the heated city. Used
on the streets it is one of the most powerful
disinfectants. If city streets were sprinkled
with adilution of bromine, the sewers and
the sub-ways flushed with it, and back alleys
and the docks disinfected, it would do much
to break up diseases which rage in certain
districts of our cities—Herald of Health.
They Don't Play nail on Sunday.
“Does the Washington nine play ball on
Sunday?” asked a Y. M. C. A. of a man who
had backed the club. ,
“No,” was the gruff reply. .
“Oh, I am so very, very glad,” said the Y.
M. C. A., rubbing his hands.
“Well. you needn’t be,” responded tho
backer, “they don’t play ball on week days,
cither.”——lVashington Critic.
'l‘lic Disappointed Undertaker.
— Citizen (to undci'takcr)—I thought, Mr.
Mould, that you were going 011’ on a vaca-
tion. '
Undertaker—l did intend to start over a
month ago, but old Mrs. Beutly was taken
dangerously ill, and I’ve been sort of hang-
ing on, and (in a. low, injured tone of voice)
I’ll be blamed, sir, if she ain’t getting better.
--'l‘he Epoch.
Actresses In France.
High life is barred against actors and
actresses in France. It is everywhere under-
stood that no actress cnters a fashionable
front door in Paris save in her professional
quality. She comes to act or to recite. says
her say, and then departs; mingles never
with the audience who have applauded her
tothe skies—Paris Letter.
Looking at me Cheap Suit.
“Father, the paper says you ‘ofliciatcd at
tho wedding,‘clad in the traditional garb of
the clergy.‘ What does traditional mean?”
“Traditional, my son,” replied the poor min.
ister. as he looked at his cheap suit of black
with a sigh. “refers to things that have been
‘handed down.’ ”—Chicago Tribune.
