Woman Trader In Mining Camp.
In-1898 Mra. R. S. Hutcheon of Chi
cago learned that there waa need of
such small necessities aa pins, needles
and thread In the mining town of
Alaska. Tbey were worth almost their
weight In gold and scarcely to be bad
at that. .
Mra. Hutcheon has the commercial
talent. Bhe selected a email atock of
gooda adapted to the exigency and
went with tbem to Dawson over the
perilous route by land and down the
Yukon river. . It was a bad trip for
hardship, and Mr. Hutcheon waa
obliged to do much mental aclenclng of
herself to keep ber courage up. But
she aold ber gooda at gold duat pricea,
catching the mining town exactly on
the boom.
The enterprising woman merchant
came back for more gooda and aold
them too. Her first store In Dawaon
waa a tent She next built a frame
bouae and established In It the princi
pal dry gooda and millinery bouae In
Dawaon. Her pluck and shrewdness
have been amply rewarded. She ex
pects to open a branch establishment
in the Tanana district She follow the
mining boom.

The very humblest cottage In all tbia

bower of beaut. No time to rata

country to rear her children among our

and more healthful to let fancy work
and atltchlng go undone and work In
the soft, rich earth outdoors.
So let us clear away the ash heap
and winter debris that cumber our
back yard and plant flowers. The ash
beapa make admirable compoet for
rosea. Begin with a few choice hardy
varieties of these. Have you an un
sightly abed or comer of your house
that you wish to cover from view?
Plant beneath It the glorious Crimson
Bam bier rose. It la so splendid that no
word can do Justice to It In the daya
of It richest bloom. I have many a
time stood In alienee before It drink

It la a climber and runner and will
quickly cover everything unsightly.
One plant often grow from ten to
twenty feet a year.
The Crimson Itambler doe not bloom
more than a month In early aummer.
It almply gathers Itself together and
pours out all the fullness of Its rich

during the rest of the seaaon the ahade
of a graceful leafy climber, and that
too, la attractive. Numbers of hardy
garden roses, however, do blossom all
aummer long and till late In autumn.

be set nine inches below the ground sur

A "rockery" grestly enhance the

a pyramid of rough stones with rich
earth in the crevices among them and

deep crevice In tbe rockery too. It la
rather the fashion now to neglect and
underrate the rose geranium which our
mothers valued so highly, yet for green
and for pleasant odor in a bouquet It
haa never been excelled. It growa In
great clumpa outdoors and ought to

Though tbe Japanese bare not many

Japanese cruisers of this class, th Asa
