sets a picket for the day t MANY WOMEN WH MAKE LIVING ON TIE HO AD There are more than half a hundred women In the United States who earn a living and a good one at that by acting as drummers or commercial travelers for business houses One of the most successful of these saleswom en is not of the opinion that all mem bers of her sex could do as well as she lias done The women who have made a success on the road she said recently are the women who would have made a success in any line of work they took up There is the rank and file in every business but I think that fewer women go on the road now than did a few years ago Men do not regard the woman com mercial traveler with favor and many houses employ them simply as an ad vertisement to attract attention to their goods and make them talked about in the small towns Other houses refuse to have a woman represent them on the road and there are still others who find that the per cent of sales by their feminine representa tives is as large if not larger than by the men who made the same territory The work is hard but less hard than that of a clerk who stands still all day behind a counter and the pay is better Most traveling saleswomen can make at least 1000 a year and few clerks receive more than 15 a week Some routes are pleasanter than others and it is not always agree able to make towns of less tRan S000 inhabitants as the hotels are likely to be poor and there is nothing to do for amusement after the days work is L i over There are a number of Minneapolis women who have made a success as traveling saleswomen but they were endowed with the ability to make a success of anything they undertook They have shrewd capable business brains they are not afraid of work and they deserve the large checkj they receive in payment for the equal ly large orders they send in to their houses Miss Pettibone who formerly made Minneapolis ner home and who now represents a corset house with headquarters in Chicago receives a salary of about 7000 a year Miss McCue formerly traveled for Wash burn Crosby Co and was one of tno few women selling flour She has re cently abandoned breadstuffs for soap Among the traveling saleswomen who are well known to buyers are Mrs Campbell and Mrs Allen who sell baking powder Miss Louise Ames who has a dry goods line Miss Au gusta Asher infants wear Miss Heintzman and Miss Annis Burr Por ter mousetraps Most of the traveling saleswomen represent come branch of womens wear The women who sell soap and flour and salt are not bothered with large trunks or samples and they can make their sales at once if the buyer is in the humor A man can some times coax him into a purchasing dis position with a cigar or a drink but a woman has to depend on her wit which does not always answer the same purpose PRACTICAL BREWER TELLS OF DISCOVERY OF LAGEH BEER Two practical brewers as they con versed the other day had an argu ment over the invention of lager beer A third brewer joined them and said Lager beer was not invented It was discovered accidentally discovered Here is the story as my grandfather handed it down to my father A saddler of the German town of Bamberg sent his apprentice one morning in the Middle Ages for a bot tle of the beer they used in these days a vile beer that was drunk as soon as it was brewed The apprentice bought the bottle and on the way home with it met a practical joker The joker said to him Your boss is looking for you He says you have spoiled three days work and he is going to baste you with a cart whip At this news the apprentice was so scared that he buried the beer under a tree and ran off and enlisted in the army He prospered in the army In time he became an officer and got the cross of honor Then he thought he would return to his native town When with a long furlough he drew near the town he recalled the i Jt bottle of beer he had buried and he dismounted from his charger on reach ing the well remembered tree and dug up the Ivttle and carried it to his former master Old man ho said you sent me af ter a bottle of beer five years ago Here is the beer now The master embraced him con gratulated him on his success in life and opened the bottle to share with him its contents Such excellent beer neither had ever tasted before It was like old wine The master as soon as he learned that it was burial that had so much benefited it bought 1000 bot tles of beer buried them and five years later sold them at a great profit for everybody that tasted the new drink loved it In time the secret leaked out Brew eries everywhere came to know that beer by lying improved So they all adopted the lying process and they called the new drink lying or lager beer for lager means lying as you know In the past centuries they let beer lie longer than we do now This is a fast age you know AN INCIDENT IN LIFE OF A PROMOTER Henry Wollman has a story of how he once came near to being a million aire About a yctar ago said he my office boy brought me a card reading Mr Joseph Montague one hundred and something Broadway When this Mr Montague entered I recognized a man I had seen in the west He told me he was about to get up a corpora tion to utilize the water power of the Missouri and Kansas rivers at Kansas City He had already agreed upon contracts with all the pork packers and other utilizers of power in Kansas City according to his story A large quantity of blue prints and other for midable looking things he carried under his arm There was going to be three million dollars clear profit in the transaction he asserted when he told me he had decided to make me counsel of the company and would give me a million dollars for my ser vices I could not quite see why he should have two million and I only one but he finally persuaded me that I ought to be satisfied witn the devis ion and I agreed to take the million dollars His face lighted up with satisfac tion Suddenly it changed and he said Something awful happened to me last night a burglar broke into my room and stole my trousers with all my ready cash and although it is nearly noon I havent had breakfast yet Naturally I said Mr Montagu1 it is necessary for the success of our great enterprise that you should keep in good physical condition heres a half dollar get your breakfast Montague departed and that is the last I ever saw of my half dollar or my million dollar fee This is no joke It actually happened and something like it is happening every hour in New York New iork Times GOOD OLD CUSTOMS OF THE WEST IN DISFAVOR A brief note in a Russell paper states that Judge Jim Reeder of the District court has informed the mem bers of the local bar that they will no longer be allowed to appear in court in their shirt sleeves according to the Kansas City Journal Probably Judge Reeder is not to blame for this He seems to be simply the helpless instru ment of that effete civilization of the East which is overwhelming the primi tive democracy of the boundless prai ries But nevertheless this order will sorely try the souls of a few remain ing members of the ancient Western bar who did not consider themselves equipped for business

liquors and in slaughtering and meat packing open at the neckband Coats indeed Time enough has not yet elapsed to make us forget the picturesque G Polk Cline who used to come to this self same court in overalls army shirt and bare feet often giving slight annoy ance to his brother attorneys by working the mud from between his toes while his extremeties were ele vated above the common table And neither can we reconcile this pert order with the fashions of not so long ago when bluff old Sheriff Lanahan used to convene court in this short but emphatic formula Take off yer guns and hats ye bums

builder of the Emma Willard seminary had taken to the financiers office Re pairs to Mr Sages hall are to be made and Mr Sage wanted to see the brick that is to be used It was worth per haps 2 cents At Twenty eighth street a sporty looking youth who evidently knew the great man reached down seized the brick dashed to the door was down stairs and away before Mr Sage mu h annoyed could get to the door
