Tiik wise safe and equitable solution
of the corporation question next to the
labor problom is doubtless the most im
portant matter now up to the people of
those United Stntos Judge Peter S
Grosscup of Chicago is responsible for
the following paragrnph on that ques
tion The main object to bo aimed at
is not general and promiscuous publicity
but is a repopularizing of the industries
of the country and tbjs can only bo ac
complished by a corporate policy under
which a corporation dishonestly con
ceived cannot be organized at all and a
corporation dishonestly administered
will pass at once before tho evil is ir
remediable into the hands of the courts
or some department of tho government
Created Wealth
Something from nothing a garden
from a desert Such is tho history of
irrigated sections Take land that sells
for 50 cents an acre put water on it and
it sells for what There are quarters
of land in irrigated sections of Colorado
that cannot bo purchased for 20000 and
which earn a remunerative interest on
that valuation
And yet you can purchase irrigated
lands where tho soil is perfect beyond
belief where the water supply is plenti
ful and inexhaustible where climatic
conditions are healthful and exhilarat
ing where fuel is abundant and cheap
for from 15 an acre up
THE REASONS
Tho North Platte Valley extending
from Bridgeport Neb to Guornsoy
Wyo and the Big Horn Basin Wyom
ing have been but recently made avail
able for settlement by the extension of
tho Burlington railroad into those sec
tions The irrigating companies must
have settlers along their ditches and
they offer substantial inducements in
shape of low priced water rights and
lands
HOW LONG WILL THIS CONDITION
CONTINUE
None may say surely but it wont be
for long and the sooner jou invest the
cheaper will you be able to do so for the
advance is just as sure as has been the
advance in the price of similar lands in
other sections

We do not need to give all
the reasons why Scotts
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color or good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood
The fact that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil
rich in nutrition full of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it does
Scotts Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at its best
fullest in strength least in

There is hardly a living creature
said a naturalist that will not permit
n hunvn being to touch it if it Is done
in the right way It is necessary to
be gentle and patient and at the same
time without fear I have seen natives
scratch the heads of tigers and lions
within a few days after they were
trapped Hunters of wild elephants
often crawl among a herd and rub
their legs The great brutes although
they are on the alert will permit the
caress and stand still until the plucky
hunter is able to slip a rope around
the leg of the animal he wishes to cap
ture
In our own country I have seen
many men who can creep to a trout
stream and gently place their hands
under a trout Very softly they rub
its belly and the trout will lie quite
still until Avith a sudden jerk it is land
ed on the bank
I have also seen professional rat
ratchers put their hands palm upward
before a rat hole when the ferrets were
driving them As a rat ran out it
would sit still on the rat catchers
hand Then with his other hand he
would stroke it delicately and in three
times out of four lie would manage to
lift the rat without alarming it and
drop it into his bag
I have even known a man who could
handle the salt water blue crab the
most belligerent and vindictive crea
ture in the sea
Gretna Green In London
There is one chapel royal which is
really not a royal chapel at all says
the London Tatler This is the one
known as Savoy chapel which pertains
not to the crown but to the duchy of
Lancaster Properly speaking it is the
chapel of the Hospital of St John the
Baptist if one must give it the only
title that is historically correct A cou
ple of centuries ago it was a kind of ec
clesiastical Gretna Green in London
with five private ways to it by land
and two by water as the touting ad
vertisement put it and runaway lovers
were clandestinely united there with
the utmost privacy decency and reg
ularity at the nominal expense of one
guinea inclusive The old ways have
been reformed by act of parliament
but the famous chapel is still a favorite
with those who fancy a quiet wedding
You can drop in casually and unosten

GRANTING A FAVOR
Do It Graclonnly Do Not Mnlce the
Recipient Feel Contemptible
The essence of truest kindness lies in
the grace with which it is performed
Some men seem to discount all grati
tude almost make it impossible by the
wny in which they grant favors They
make you feel so small so mean so in
ferior your cheeks burn with indigna
tion in the acceptance of the boon you
seek at their hands You feel It is like
a bone thrown at a dog instead of the
quick sympathetic graclousness that
forestalls your explanations and
waives your thanks with a smile the
pleasure of one friend who has been fa
vored with the opportunity to be of
service to another The man who
makes another feel like an insect re
clining on a redhot stove while he is
receiving a favor hns no right to ex
pect future gratitude he should feel
satisfied if he receives forgiveness
Let us forget the good deeds we have
done by making them seem small in
comparison with the greater things we
are doing and the still greater acts we
hope to do This is true generosity and
will develop gratitude in the soul of
him who has been helped unless he is
so petrified in selfishness as to make it
impossible But constantly reminding
a man of the favors he has received
from you almost cancels the debt The
care of the statistics should be his priv
ilege you are usurping his prerogative
when you recall them Merely because
it has been our good fortune to be able
to serve some one we should not act
as if we held a mortgage on his immor
tality and expect him to swing the cen
ser of adulation forever in our presence

In tlie Streets of BennreK
Through a narrow street lined with
shrines temples and shops the way
leads toward the sacred river nere
and there it is necessary to pick ones
steps One of the first sights to at
tract the eye is a dead rat festering be
fore the door of a dwelling and the
rats are said first to have spread the
plague at Bombay A moment later a
dirgclike cry breaks upon the ear It
is Ram Ram Ram in memory of
the saintlike prince of ancient India
Four bearers are carrying a body to
be burned So narrow is the street
that it becomes necessary to crowd
back against a temple wall to let the
dead pass by The body is wrapped in
muslin and the face is covered The
pall is sprinkled with drops perhaps
of rosewater perhaps of the sacred
Gauges This is the path of the dead
No guide is needed except to follow in
the hurrying footsteps of those who
were carrying tlie corpse to its resting
place upon the pyre Professor A V

The Smiles Failert
A pretty American girl traveling in
England was sorely tried by the an
noyances and stares to which she wis
subjected on account of her American
peculiarities She went into a shoe
shop in London to buy a pair of shoes
and the clerk tried on inuumerable
pairs of veritable boats as she called
them much to the amusement of two
Englishwomen customers seated near
by who regarded her through their
starers as if she were some strange
animal in a menagerie
Finally the clerk said apologetically
We avent anything narrow enough
for you miss You see miss our ladies
have wider feet because they walk so
much miss
The two Englishwomen smiled with
the air of superiority that she had met
for so long and she felt she could
stand it no longer Do they walk on
their hands too she flashed out
Found His Place
Two men were discussing the friends
of their boyhood and in the course of
the conversation mentioned one old
schoolmate who had been the possessor
of a most unfortunate disposition
I wonder what became of him
said one man It always seemed to
me that it wouldnt be possible for him
to get any enjoyment out of life or find
any sort of work that suited him
He has said the other I saw him
out west last year and he has a job
that suits him to a T Hes station
master in a place where there are for
ty trains a day coming and going and
he sees somebody miss every one of
them

Discovered Baited Snuff
A Limerick tobacconist of the name
of Lundyfoot doing a comparatively
small trade was unfortunate enough
to have his establishment destroyed
by fire On visiting the ruins next day
be saw some of his poor neighbors
among the debris gathering the half
baked snuff from the canisters which
bad not been entirely destroyed by the
fire ne tasted what he considered the
worthless article and to his surprlso
found that the heat from the lire hat
added pungency and aroma to the snuff
Profiting by the discovery tlie shrewd
Irishman at once set about baking his
snuff in ovens and the fame of the
Blackyard snuff was established and
an immense fortune soon made by
Lundyfoot founded upon a mere acci
dent and growing out of a misfortune
Stropping Ilnzor
A correspondent of the Scientific
American thus describes his method of
stropping his razor Every one knows
that metal expands with heat I put
my razor handle kept out just before
stropping in boiling water and leave it
until it has absorbed as much heat as
I can stand in handling While the
blade is hot I strop it well The metal
cools as I strop In about twenty five
strokes the edge is sharpened and is
keener when cold for the metal con
tracts while sharpening
