RESOLVE each day not to Ureal; those resolutions you made on New ' Year's Day. —SOMEBODY in a boastful humor points out that there are 40,000,000 little Japs and 80,000,000 big Am ericans, and asks what in the world I the little nation could do with the J great one in case of a row. Better j not get too cocky. Some such argu ment was made just about the time the Japs tackled the Russian bear. —A LADY of kind intentions and the laudable desire to benefit feminin ity in general has bought several hun dred acres of land in Southwest Texas and proposes to establish an "Adam- j less Eden" down there. She an nounces that men will be tolerated, j but only as pieces of furniture. Guess they'll be sofas, since they are to be "sat upon" with painful frequency. —DON'T be discouraged if you | don't feel the best in the world to-day. A little over-eating of Christmas tur key isn't going to do you any perman-1 out harm, and you wijl feel all the i better when you get over it. Christ mas only comes once a year, and some of us don't get a chance to eat too much turkey on any other day. Simply forget ft and brace up for another whirl at the activities and the realities of life. There are thousands of people all over the country who feel worse than you do. —Now we have the grand rush of the great army of exchangers, for it has come to be the practice to buy all Christmas gifts with the right to ex change them if they don't suit. Wonder some genius doesn't set up a sort of Christmas gift exchange house, where those of us who get things we don't want or can't use may swap them tor things we can make useful or ornamental. Think of the thous ands and thousands of misfit gloves, unsuitable neckties he would be able to collect; and cigars! He would liave to build warehouses. —MAN'S troubles multiply and wo rn u are more and more blamed there for, justly or unjustly. As if it didn't i keep a man busy enough brushing stray hairs, bloude or brunette, off his coat collar and dusting the powder , from the lapels, a recent case in court , revealed that the underlying cause ol at least one man's woes was that his wife recognized on his coat sleeve the particular perfume used by "the other woman." Now we have got to ' put perfume in the catalogue with face powder and loose hair as deadly evidences to be guarded against. A. J. CASSATT. In the death of Mr. A. J. Oassatt, the country has not only lost prob- 1 ably its greatest railroad executive, but one of its most forcible, far-seeing business men. The recent marvellous * development of the system of which he was the head was due wholly to his personal force and confidence in i the future, and his ability to inspire the financial forces of the world with , his confidence and enthusiasm. He | saw the great growth of the country and the tremendous demand of the future, and above all others appreci- ' ated the fact that it was necessary to ' act promptly if the conditions of the near future were to be satisfactorily met. It required couruge as well as • brains to run counter to old-time con- 1 servative ideas of administration, and to spend hundreds of millions in in- ' creasing the efficiency of the greatest railroad system of the country, but s Mr. Cassatt was generally accepted as ] the man for the time and place. In making an estimate of the man, ■ the Philadelphia Ledger says Mr. j Cassatt's rare ability as a practical railroad operator has never been questioned. It was upon this practi- ' eal knowledge and his prevision of the vast growth of railroad business ' that he formulated those great under- ' takings that have recently absorbed so much of the corporation's practical I and financial energies, and that i troubled many conservative minds l whose grasp was'not as broad as his. While his death can have little or no , effect upon the operation of the sys tem, it leaves uncompleted so much that was peculiarly his own concep tion that the test of supreme capacity , now falls upon his associates and suc cessors to carry these undertakings to fruition. They can have but little ' more to undertake. If Cassatt leaves a part of his work incomplete, he leaves nothing unplanned or unpro vided for. The additional freight lines, the New York terminal, the Long Island extension, even large I provisions for new rolling stock— everything is mapped out and practi- i cally financed to bring the Pennsyl- i vania Railroad to that state of com- i pleteness and perfection which Cassatt, . in his wise foresight, conceived. I Though his direction will be missed, the work will goon, and future years i will recognize it as his achievement. I He was not only a great railroad man; I l he was a great Pennsylvania!], a great American, and not his own city only, but the whole country, has been enriched by the vast work that he crowded into his incessantly busy life. More picturesque things may have been done by early railroad builders in penetrating the Western deserts, says the New York World, but in the last years of his life Mr. Cassatt initi a'ed works of a magnitude that call ed for no less imagination and cour age, merely as an incident to the ad ministration of one ot the oldest es tablished railroad systems.

MCCLURE, Cashier. | Ot■ • ' O While They Waited By Virginia UiU Weota Copyright. 1906, by C. H. Sutollffe He Jumped out of the little country rig, leaving It In the hands of a freckle faced boy, and rushed up to the ticket office Just as his train was pulling oat from the station. "Pshaw I" he exclaimed irascibly, and then to the sleepy looking, contented ticket agent, "When does the next train leave for New York?" "Two hours," replied that tauflvWual laconically. Maverick Oliver wasn't a man to cry over spilled milk. He sat himself philosophically down In a shady recess of the waiting room and extracted a , notebook. He wouM 'ook over some memoranda he had Jotted down for his solicited article for the Review and then take a stroll along the country hedges. There seemed to be a rather attractive bit of woodland Just beyond. "How loug must I wait for connec tions for Rosecilff?" Something In the woman's voice, half contralto, half alto, made the man with the notebook suddenly start. He'd been so engrossedly conning his mem oranda that he had scarcely noticed the incoming train, with all Its attend ant bustle. Now, however, a single woman's voice made him start and caused the Review article to be as fsr from his thoughts as the military af fairs of nations B. O. The woman's back was turned to ward Oliver, but he knew it was Elea nor. Who else in all the world had that queenly carriage, that soft slope of shoulder, that bewitching mass of colled chestnut hair? "For Rosecilff?" came tfce ticket agent's monotonous volee as he caress ed his wrinkled forehead with the hack of his hand. "A half hoar, ma'am. Train's sixteen minutes late." The woman turned impatiently away from the window. It was then they came face to face. "Yenl" cried Oliver, springing up. She stood there In the barren waiting room, filling Its emptiness with the richness of her charm. To the man's hungry eyes she was food of the most satisfying as well as of the most deli cate Bort. She did not hold out her hand. Never theless she encountered him not in her old imperious fashion, but with a smile Including him In some mood too large to be wholly personal. "llow you have changed, Eieanorl" be cried involuntarily. "Are you, too, waiting for a train?" sho answered softly In return. "In which direction do you go?" "South—to New York," said Oliver. "And you?" "To Roseeliffe, fourteen miles east" Oliver took her umbrella and tiny suit case from her, and then they walked slowly up and down the plat form together, man and woman. In stead of husband and wife, held apart by some strange flat they had both ac cepted. In the fields, all around, the butter cups were golden aud the wild carrot was in white, lacelike flower. Over in the woods beyond some song birds, waking from their summer siesta, were beginning to warble. A group of trav eling men was lounging on the railing at the far end of the platform, ex pectorating copiously to punctuate the points In their stories. Oliver duntod tho otcpo at the other end of the walk with his handkerchief, and the woman sat se renely down, her delicate profile out lined against the clear blue of the sky like some exquisite cameo. She had always been beautiful, though. It wasn't that which made the man ex claim again lrrepresslbly: "You've changed so, Eleanor!" It was true. It was no mere fancy of his Imaginative writer's eye that discov ered new meanings In the face before him. It had undergone a vague but very gracious transformation. "Changed?" repeated she, with a curious tenderness. "I've tried to change—tried, do you understand? Since last winter, when we agreed to separate, I've been trying—so hard, Maverick—to take control of my own Rtunted nature, turn It where It twists"— "Dear," broke In Oliver. with a bit ter nuinuu/, we tvt-ic U\J iu iv both, do you hear? And I'm afraid you've been cleverer than I If you've unsnarled things where they failed to fit the pattern. I've not changed much, I'm afraid." Under her black lashes the woman smiled at him with a reverence he might have translated (had he been high plumed) as some loyal acquies cence In his former state. What Oli ver felt now, however, was curiosity In his young wife, not In himself. So— "Tell me," he burst forth, "what has changed you so.?" She rolled up her absurd little hand kerchief Into a string and, throwing It over her knee, pulled It unconsciously by both ends, gazing steadfastly Into the blue distance above Oliver's head. "I don't know whether I ought to tell you," she began. Oliver recalled that delicious little| habit she used to have of tempting thei fates shyly, of hesitating when she meant to be right down outrageous. "Of course you ought," he urged.! "You always do In the end, you know, j and It will save time." Under her playfulness he had allowed himself to, grow light hearted. ; "Well, then"— she began, but her voice trailed off vaguely. Her cheeks took on a pinker bloom; she forgot then handkerchief and flulslied her thovght with a mature dignity that became ha like the armor of her sex. "Our little boy. Maverick—our little boy has changed me." "Ah! Our boy"— Oliver broke off abruptly, for something had suddenly clutched him by the throat. The woman hastily brushed her tears away aud went on practically: "You'd be proud of him, Maverick— such Rtroug, agile limbs—and he haa the will of a little savage." "Let me see," Oliver said brusquely, stooping over the platform's edge and plucking a buttercup stalk that had ambitiously grown up from the gravel. "He must be eleven months now." "Yes. He was five when—when you last saw him." She kept her eyes de liberately fixed upon the high railroad trestles In the blue distance. "Do you know, he's been such a help to me. I've told him all the things I wanted to tell you—told 1 m that his mother had been a vain, silly, girlish tyrant who, coming straight from the convent, wanted to have everything this world had to give—money, fame, position al! those things that are bought In the market place—and had wanted to buy them with his father's conscience." Over the trestles the smoke of the j Incoming train was seen. There were th» usual bustle and running to and fro on the platform, seizins of band bags, carting of trunks, and io on. Whatever swift mutual, soul revela tions Oliver and bis wife had been on tbe point of making dissolved into nothingness, Jarred by the proaalc com motion of traffic. It was a pity, too, for with Eleanor's last words her face had melted Into a pliant sweetness, her exquisite mouth had taken on sud den qulverln? little curves. Bhe had ■corned about to say, "Ambition, self ishness, the cruelty of pride—all these things have gone. Maverick." She didn't say that, however. In stead she rose from tbe wooden step which ber husband bad dusted 'or her. "I'm glad you found me cbang •" she •aid merely. Something hi th man's honest soul overflooded. "I, too—l, too, Eleanor, will change I" cried he. "Ah, you've no need to," answered she, meeting honesty w * honesty. "Yon've been growing like the trees yonder"—she nodded In the direction of the woodland—"for years, straight and strong. I had to be pruned. I had"— The train's screeching whistle dead ened her words. It came rushing In and stopped. Oliver still held Eleanor's tiny suit case and umbrella In his hand. There was a infused sound of greeting to the passengers who had alighted and the clamor of hotel run ners and bus drivers. "Now, then, step lively!" cried the brakeman as the last much bundled old woman descended, allowing the Impatient traveling men to cllnb aboard. Oliver and his wife were tbe last of the crowd. He helped ber aboard, fomnd her chair for her In tho parlor car, then turned miserably to meet her eye*. "All aboard!" came the strident voice of the conductor. The train be gan to move almost imperceptibly. "Ooodby!" cried Oliver, battling with strong emotion, but conscious of the Increasing movement of the trala. Then as be bent over her seat woman laid a trembling hand on his arm, and her eyes were brimming with slow tears. "Ooodby, Maverick? Dont yon want to go with me to our baby?" "Good heavens! Eleanor, do I want to?" Some lonely passengers at the ether end of the car wondered what had sud denly Illumined the man's handsome face with that electric thrill of Joy. Then the telegraph poles began to whiz by. Oliver had forgotten New York. Hantvay's 'Punishment By JOHN J. O'CONNOR. Copyright, 1906, by May McKeon It was October when Tim came to school. Tbe family bad been visiting relatives In the west, and be bad re joiced In tbe prolonged vacation. It seemed rather hard to have togo back to school, and It was with laggard feet that he headed, with tbe rest of the scholars, toward the little frame build ing where the tender mind of district No. 4 was trained. "The new teacher's soft," volunteer ed Tommy English. "The other day BUI Hendricks brought a lwan blower and shot the teacher In the back, and all she said was, 'Please don't' I guess there's going to be fun." Tim smiled weakly. It was encour aging lu know lliul lio cvulil ytacuco his devilments without the risk of a thrashing. Tbe last teacher had been a Lian, and Tim hud bad good reasoa to remember blm, for of the younger boys Tim was the ringleader, Just aa Hendricks was the leader of the older boys. That BUI bad eventually thrash ed the teacher and forced blm to ro slgn Just before tbe end of the spring term was no great consolation to Tim. The trustees had put In a woman teacher as an experiment, thinking that perhaps feminine appeal might 1>« more potent than tbe hickory switch. Tim rather expected a gaunt old lady, as a certain Miss Flint bad been, and when he made bis appearance In the schoolroom and presented himself be fore the teacher he was shocked to find so young a woman. Marlon Murtha was only nineteen, and her fresh coloring and the liquid brown eyes made so deep an Impres sion on him that for tbe first ten daya he was one of the model scholars, and Miss Murtha was beginning to congrat- GENTLY SHF. EXPLAINED THAT BETB HAD 11EEN HlltßD TO TEACH TUB SCHOOL. ulate herself that the boy against whom everybody bad warned her was not so bad after all. In vain bis fellows looked for some outbreak, and finally Tommy English ' twitted him on his susceptibility. "He wants to marry ber when he grows up," he Jeered. "He'll be bring ing her apples an' candy next. Tbe ain't afraid; he's Just soft, that's all." The gibe struck home, for Tim had a big apple In his desk that he was thinking of giving Miss Murtha If be did not feci tempted to eat It himself during tbe noon hour. "I ain't a-skeered of her," be sain contemptuously. "I was Just waltln' till I could think somethin' up." "Yah," Jeered Tommy. "I didn't say you was a-skeered. I said you waa stuck on the teacher." The Iron entered Tim's soul, and, with a dark "You wait and see," he raced off to the well. He came stamping In when the bell rang and went to bis desk with a swag ger that was quite like bis old time bearing. The desk next blm was emp ty, and with Infinite earo be twlste4 two bits of slate_ pencil Into a rubber band and dropped them Info tbe other Seek. The unwinding band rattled the pencils around In the empty box with a crash that stopped the Fourth Reader class and directed the eyes of tbe whole school on htm. Tim tried to look ■aconcerned, but be could not refrain from casting a glance of triumph at Tommy English, and therein lay his undoing, for the teacher's eyea were «ulck and her Intuition keen. "Tim," ahe said sharply. "You will stay In after school tonight." "I ain't done notbln'," he declared •toutly. "I did not say that you had," ahe said quietly. "I said that I wished you to remain after school this evening." "Aw," cried Tim, "that ain't fair!" She said nothing, but went on qnletly with the claaa work. Tim had expected her to anawer, that he might talk back again. He could not understand this quiet Ignoring of tbe matter and sat silent and uncertain. During the noon hour Tommy Eng llab sought to persuade him Into defy ing the teacher, but when 4 o'clock eame and he made as thongb togo out with tbe others a firm hand waa laid upon his shoulder, and Miss Murtha'e quiet voice reminded blm that be was to stay In. To stay after school meant to spend • certain time In study. Tim scuffled back to bis desk and sat there swing lng his feet Idly. He was determined that he would not study and wondered vaguely If the teacher would try ta thrash blm for hla disobedience. Presently the others were gone, and Miss Murtha went back to her desk. Another scholar had been kept lu to re write the spelling lesson, and Mls« Murtha waited quietly until the task was dene. At laat they two were alone, and she called to blm. Not once had she noticed him before, and Tim went forward wonderlngly. "Ibey told me that you were a bad (lAV " aha uulj "Imf T /1W *i nJr +kla»lr that you would act so toward a wom an." "Whafa the difference!" be demand ed. "You get paid to teach ua, don't you, Just like a man?" Gently she explained that she bad been hired to teach the school, but that she could not remain If she could not handle the pupils. If be and some of the other boys persisted In being dis obedient she would hare to give up the school and they would have de prived her of a chance to earn a living. When she had flnlahed, Tim looked up. "Say," ho said penitently, "I'll let you lick me If you want to. I won't flcht back." "I don't want to whip you," she said as she stooped and kissed him. "I want you to be a good boy; that's all." Tommy English was waiting for blm aa (he subdued Tim went out. "Did she lick you?" he demanded eagerly. "I didn't hear you boiler." With a howl Tim sprang at him and tlirashcd him as a relief for his over wrought feelings. "An' I'll do It again If you say any thing about Miss Murtha," he promised as he released hla victim, "an' I'll lick any of you fellers what makes trouble for her." It took but a week to make that fact apparent, and those who had taken ad vantage of the fact that Miss Murtha did not believe In physical punishment learned to behave. Then came Jlen Hanway upon tbe scene, and It soon became apparent that Marlon had fallen In love. The proposition waa almost too much for Tim to grasp, but In a vague way be realized that tbe teacher cared a great deal for Ren, He was not Jealous, though he resented the lost walks home with Miss Murtha, because now Ren ~*illi*l fnr her with Hla hunry. an<l Ttm was left behind. But the course of true love never did run smooth, and one afternoon Tim came back to the schoolroom to find Miss Murtha, with her head bowed on her arms, her slight form shaken by sobs. Softly he stolo out of tbe rom and made for the village. Ken would probably be In the office of the lumber yard, and thither he bent his steps. Hanway was working at his desk when tbe door burst open and Tim was upon blm like a young cata mount, pummel! ng and kicking Indis criminately. The attack was so sud den that It was several minutes before nanway could grasp the youngster. Tears of rage stood In Tim's eyea as he struggled to get free. "You let me alone!" he shouted. "I've got to lick you. I said I was goln' to lick any feller tbat made Miss Murtha cry, an' I licked 'em all except Billy Hendricks, an' I threw stones at him." "I didn't make her cry," laughed Hanwny, though his face went very white. "What makea you think so?" "You used to drive her home," cried Tim, "an' now you don't come any more, nn' I went Into the schoolroom this nfternoon, an' she was cryln', with ber bend on tbe desk, an' I knew It was your fault, an' I want to lick you." Hanwa.v's face glowed with pleasure. There had been a small quarrel, but so successfully had she hidden her feel ings that he did not think she cared. "I'll hitch up and go right over to tell her I'm sorry," he said. "Will that do?" "If she says yes," agreed Tim. Han way went out. That evening Tim was at the Presby terian social when Miss Murtha and Hanway came In. Mlaa Murtha bent over and kissed blm. "My little champion," she whispered. "You have made me so happy." "Then I won't lick Ren again," prom ised tbe pleased Tim. "I thought you'd waut me to." The Star ui Hrr Piklk. Of course materially the star la ex tremely well off.
