NORTHW ESI El IS C OMING t mm tmma . . . - a sn . . am mb a a s - - ! a man Mfln i jap. are i nat within nivtaah Months It Will Be Constructing Line Into Portland From Wyoming That the Chicago A Northwstrn Railroad oompany will be constructing Una Into Oregon within the next li months la the opinion of a railroad man who U la a position to know. Thar la no other possible reason for the aetloa of the stockholders at the annual meeting just held. In voting an Increase of llOO.OOO.UOO In the capital stock. All other extensions now planned by the company weuld not oost to exceed lle.ooo.ooo. This sum would be a bag atelle In comparison to the resouroes of the company. Its annual earnings are so large that after charging off I per oent dividend on the preferred and 7 rr oent on the common stock last year had f 1,000,000 surplus left to put Into new construction and betterments. Jha. the race of these conditions Its stock holders have just voted a new stock lia bility of money enough to build, If needed, S.000 miles of railroad at 110. 000 per mil, and have enough money left to equip the Una In railroad cir cles It 1 conceded that the Northwest ern will shortly announce construction of Us main line from Lander; Wyom Sag. through Boise and central Oregon to Portland. Many believe It will also seek an ocean outlet at Coos Bay. The Northwestern was the pioneer granger line . of the middle west, the first railroad In Chicago. Its prosper ity has bean steady, and this year had its directors so ohoaen. It could have Rid 10 per cant dividends on Its pre rred stock and 1Q per cent on the common. But Marvin Hughltt foresees the time. It Is said, whoa any east .and west Una from Chicago to the Rocky mountain, moat no longer depend upor a community Interest with Harrlman or Hill. To be certain of a fair degree of prosperity H must have a Pacific coast outlet, for here will. In the en suing 10 years originate the raat hulk of the new business that Is to create revenues for western railroads. The Chicago. Milwaukee A St. Paul has al ready announced Its determination to come to the Columbia river basin and Pugat Bound, and although It is al ready constructing, itwiu probably aot be completed to Vactflc tidewater until after the Northwestern has reached the coast, as the latter Is a long way farther treat on Its construction work. The aggreaelve aotton of the Milwau kee la believed to have sparred the Northwestern to Immediate financing of Its Pacific coast extension. The average freight haul of the Northwestern was Its miles In Its?. 1ft miles in lift, 161 miles la lilt, grad ually decreasing with the building of branch lines Into Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska. The Vanderbllt-Northwest-erir-Unlorl Pacific community of Inter est resulted In giving it a tea gar haul, and Tor a time halted Its construction, westward at Lander, Wyoming: Now. it Is believed, the Northweetern will throw traffic combination to the wind and puah through to the ooast. securing thereby complete freedom from the Harrlman lines, and tapping Oregon timber to supply lumber to the vast treeless territory traversed by the Northweetern system between the Rockies and Chicago. Other new construction work pro jected by the Northwestern Includes lit miles In Wisconsin, St miles In South Dakota, besldea 176 rrtttes by pro prietary companies In the same state, and in addition completion of the 147 miles now under way In Wyoming. Last summer the Northwestsrn's engineers reached the furtherest westers point thus far touched In their reconnolsance toward the coast. They crossed the Snake river into eastern Oregon, and for a few weeks prospected west from Nysea.

"The Pity of If When I see women wasting their Bye over trivial nonessentials, crowding out the really Important Issues by petty con cerns and so-called duties, I feel like saying with Othello, "but eh, the pity of it." Has their life no value beyond fancy work aad a round of calls T The woman who devotee her life to the kitchen floor or the pantry shelves Is wasting golden opportunities for which she will be called to account some day although this type of woman usually piumes nereeir on her virtue and superi ority to other women. A lifetime Is so short to enjoy this beautiful world we must choose which are the thing which we are willing to rorego in order to have time for others to which we attach more value, or at least that should be the ease, but in stead, through thoughtlessness and the habit of drifting, to which we are alt more or lee prone, we keep the chaff and throw away the grain, or else so smother the grain In chaff that It be comes almost unflndable. Touth la full of lofty ambitions and purposes, but there la a gradual nar rowing down from year to year; new and unexpected dutlee have sprung up and numerous unimportant trifles fill our lives and absorb our time until we lose eight of single alms and become thought less and Indifferent to former high pur poses: we ere ruled by the minor hap penings of the day aad have not the strength to look beyond are unable to distinguish between the things of a day and those of all time. Ws cannot see beyond the molehills that surround us and therefore con clude that molehills are the largest of mountains. Does the woman who spends her time embroidering unnatural looking roses on cushion tops think thet she Is spending her time worthily the rosea, besides being unnatural looking and therefor ugly, also fall In usefulness, as the em broidery makes them very uncomfortable as cushions what can be the object In taking valuable time to render a useful article useless? I have seen pieces of embroidery that were works of art; that served their purpose by being beautiful but they were not cushion tops. Like Maggie Tulllver, I have always been opposed to cutting cloth Into tiny bits in order to sew It together again. Every wife must choose between being first a housekeeper and then a wife and mother, or first a wife and mother and then a housekeeper. It I Impossible to fill all three positions equally well. Ws are constantly making thee de cisions, but we make them so uncon sciously that ws do not realise having done so. M Facial Blemishes. Nothing frets a woman Ilk a rough, muddy skin A cure-all for blemishes Is simple enough: Wash the face In vary salty sweet milk every night and kit It dry without wiping. A mixture made of one small tablwpoonful of milk and a teaspoon ful of salt applied to the moot obstlnste blemish of the skin will cure It aa If by magic. This remedy was pre scribed by one of the beet skin authori ties In England. It Is said that the use of milk and salt Is the secret of tbe Eng lish woman's beautiful skin. I I H Veal Loaf.
