Farmers' Bank Deposits.


It is a subject of congratulation hat while the eastern financial cen- ers, around which rage the storms « stock market panies, have been un- Argoing the stress of a severe finan- itl stringency, the country at large, and especially the west, has Iwen x holly free from any disturbance of What sort. if money has lwen searre ind bard to get in New York and Borton, it has been rasy and plentiful n all western business centers. The tiluation in Minnesota is to a grent extent illustrative of that throughout :in northwest. The statements of the Suancial comoit on of the hanks of S .. Panl. recently published in the Pio- heer I'ress, showed that they were all n first-class condition, with abundant reserves and overflowing deposits, with more money to loan than they knew what to do with. The same is true of nll the country banks. For- merly at harvest time there was a great demand for eastern money to buty wheat and other products and help move the crops. Now this de- mand in Minnesota is almost wholly supplied by the country banks to the exclusion in a large depres of even the city banks. Years of agricultural prosperity have filled the country banks in the older and better devel- opec A-triets of this state with farm- ens' deju sits. The ind istrial and com. mercial prosperity of the last two years has filled the city Ionks with the deposits of prosperous merchants. manufacturers and railroads. What true of Minnesota s true of the northwest- 'ndeed, of the entire cen- tral west. The west has in fact. he- come francu y independent of the cast, und ils financ al independence rests in the solid foundation of the cash returns if product're industries manager with conservative prudenes. formerly western farm mortgages were a fawrite field for the eastern investor. Put these mortgages have hwren largely paid off, and the eastern money lenders now find it so difficult to loan money on western farms that some of them who have heen in the business for years have given it up or are about to give it up. The farm- rre have themselves become money lenders instead of borrowers.

It takes a long time, and one can think a long while about these things that is why Takan found herself salting by the willow in her trahouse watching the sun god slowly steal in golden splendor over the larbor and the hills iu the dis- tuber.


The night before a great feast bad been given in her honor by Sendniko. a feudal lord of Japan and the wealthiest man in the country.

Junte the frast he had the scales brought in. and while the attendants piled the goll on the scales Semaikn coaxed Takao to balance her weight against his money.


Langlonely she had complied, and as she stimul up the seales Sendaiko said: "This, all this, will I give you if you will heenher my wife."


Takao Irapied instantly from the scales and in the presence of the company re- fused to marry Sendaiko, even for her weight in pold.


Stodlaiko, enraged at the public humil- istiun, refused lo arrept her answer. andl. leaving the money in the teahouse, said: "Tomorrow I will take you to my conn- try. which is called the country of Sen- daiko, in the northeast part of Japan."

BABY'S WAY.


Everything's in the baby's way Whenever she wants to run and play; It's either w chair, a table or door Or clutter all over the play room floor. When she starts to run, she gets a bump, And we have to kiss her forehead plump And start her off with a smile to play And clear things out of the baby's way.


Everything's in the baby's way, She wants her do, and she wants her say; She wants to do the things which are wrong, And her will each day it grows more strong, And we try so gently to guide her right And ask the Father of all for light; But to her who wants her do and say Everything seems in the baby's way.


Everything's in the baby's way From morning till night. so babies say, And so they are cross and fretful, too, And do the things they ouglau't to do, And their ways are not our ways at all. And so they must cry and scold and fall, But we turn a hundred times a day " And smile because it is baby's "way .** -Joe Cone in National Magazine.


ONE OF THE CITY'S OWN


How a Young Man Came to Go to


the South African War.


"Mr. Redbolt is to go to the goveruor at once."


Mr. Redbolt strode briskly across the room. A moment later be was In the private offiee.


Young Mr. Dewhurst, who bad man- aged the business siuce the death of his father, gave hlm a furtive look as he entered and then turned hurriedly to a hundle of correspondence by his side and selected a letter with an air of malicious satisfaction.


The ball was opened by Mr. Dew. hurst unfolding a cantankerous com- plaint from an unimportant customer. It was the merest trifle and quite uu- worthy of the occasion. Nevertheless Joe Redbolt was by no menns surpris- ed at the tone adopted. For some time past the smallest opportunities bad been seized for fault finding, and be knew by instinct that the climax bad been reached.


"How do you account for this blun- der?" asked Mr. Dewhurst suspiclous- ly


His clerk gave a simple, straightfor- ward explanation, wbleh, to a reasona- ble man, would have been sufficient. But Mr. Dewhurst was not in a rea- sonable humor.


"It appears to me, then, that you are Dot in any way to hlame, Mr. Redbolt," he said cynically. "I think not."


"You never make a mistake?" "Not very often."


'Who is to blame, then?"


There was a moment's silence, and the two men looked into one another's yes,


"You are. sir." said Redbolt respeet- fully.


This appeared to give the unworthy little tyrant his opportunity. "You are more than half Supert !- nent." he said roughly.


"I give you my word that I don't In- lind to be so." said Redbolt, with per feet good temper.


"Perhaps net, but I'm tired of It. You forget your proper position and bave crussell my will in several ways." Mr. Redlaedt colored rather painfully. and his principal continued, with ; sulle of spiteful triumph:


"Yon nuderstand what I allude to?" The elerk howed slightly.


"""'hen I think you had better loo ;; about for another situation."


"Shall we enleulate the month from Inst Monday?" inquired Joe Redbolt in a perfectly even, matter of fact voice." "Eh-yes," gnid Mr. Dewburst. "But I won't ask you to continue your work Irre."


a nittie pue or coms which had been eounted out already, clearly showing that he Intended from the first to make use of the opportunity.


For the first time Joe Redbolt looked angry. It was adding insult to injury to send him away at a moment's no- tice, as If he had disgraced himseit.


It was the more outrageous because he was a distant relation of the Dew- bursts by blood. The two young men had been for a short time at school together. They had entered the frm together, and Redbolt had worked his way up hy sheer ability under old Mr. Dewhurst's ese to a responsible posi- tion.


Naturally they knew the same people and to some extent visited the same houses, and It was In this way that Dewhurst's Inherent jealousy had rip- ened Into positive rancor, for that there was a member of the fair sex at the bottom of it is almost obvious.


The innocent cause of the trouble. little dreaming of the mischief she was creating, had thoroughly enjoyed the rivalry of the two men, as every daughter of Eve Is bound to do, and she had not made It quite clear which of them was to be favored. which Is certainly a woman's privilege.


But Joe Redholt was generally be- lieved to be the lucky man, and Dew- burst had vented his unmanly spite by a thousand annoyances in the offer. However, In love, as in war, It Is the unexpected that often happens. Joe Redbolt proposed and was refused point blank.


Now, most men, when they see a dan- gerous rival put out of court, bury their animosity and even become gen- erous.


But this was not the case with Fred Dewhurst. Petty annoyances develop- ed rapidly into daily insults until the morning, as we have seen, he had found an exeuse to cut his former schoolfellow adrift.


"Now. Fred Dewhurst." h huskily. "we are no longer master and man, so that I can say what I think." Dewhurst looked rather alarmed


"Oh, don't be frightened," said Joe, with a smile of amusement. "I'm not going to thrash you! It wouldn't be fair to hit a man of your size!" Mr. Dewhurst tried to sneer, but only looked mightily relieved.
