MAINE'S "LUMBER QLttBN."
The Japanese Bankers Couldn't I n- Ha* Bad fany Sharp Business ^"o -
dt-rstand Ms Meaning.
"The same old chostuut'"
"I never hear that expression that
I am not reminded of an Incident
that caused a flurry among the bank-
ers tu Nagaskl." observed Miss Ida
Bachan, an assistant librarian In the
West Side, on hearing the remark of
a critical patron concerning nu old
atory told in new form.
"It wag during my stay In Japan."
teste With Lumbermen.
A plucky business woman down in
Maine, by. successfully 'competing in
a number of business deals with her
rivals, has won for herself the novel
sobriquet of "Lumber (JUoen of the
Pine Tree State."
Miss Clara Stimpson, th£ owner of
three large lumber mills at Smyrna
Mills. Limerick and Ashland, la bet-
ter known thsn anv other business
Miss Bachan explained, "I was stop- woman in Maine by manufacturers
ping at the house of a Japanese throughout the state because of the
banker,, Mr. 8. J. Suganuma. who clever manner In which she has euc-
ad mart ied an American mission-:! cesssfullly built up her flourishing
ary worker, Miss Mary Gault of lumber business.
Cleveland Mr. Suganuma had | M|ss Stimpson while she believes
that marriage is the proper sphere
something to do with the bank's cor- !
respondence and it was his duty to
receive reports from representatives
In Europe and America concerning
the ilniyuiai situation, the stock
markm, or something of the kind.
"It seemed that the American cor-
respondent of i he bank had been
sendinz reports for several days in
succession which read 'no change,*
meaning, 1 suppose, that the money
or stock market was unchanged.
Finally n cablegram was received
which read 'same old chestnut.' Mr.
Suganuma was puzzled. He was a
fine interpreter, but for the life of
him he could not make out what
'same old chestnut' meant. He con-
sulted all of the men in the bank
ind they were unable to enlighten
him. Then be called on the Inter-
preters of othfr banks and asked
them if they could tell what the
mysterious telegram meant, but with
the same result. Nobody knew what
'same old chestnut' meant.
"Meanwhile, there was excitement
in banking circl s in Nagnskl, for
who but a banker become*, nervous
when he receives a menage concern-
ing tho condition of the money or
stock,market that he does not under-
stand. 'They worried over that tel-
egram for two hours until .someone
finally suggt^Ud to Mr. Siigq.auma
to take thai cablegram home tq his
American wjfo aid',Hsk her for J n
Interpretation of its meaning He
did sn. and i think ran nil the way.
from the inarfn^r In >v!iich !u was
•mnting when he entered tbe house
and explained his errand. Mrs. Su-
ganuma almost screamed with
laughter when she read the cable-
gram and realized the plight those
Nagasaki banker^ were in. She
made haste to enlighten her hus-
band, but imagine the look of dis-
gust on his face as he darted out of
the house and almost flew back to
the bank to stop the flurry.—Kansas

bachelor woman should have the
right to undertake any of the var-
ious professions which man has usur
ped for so many centuries, and a
number of years ago, In a quiet way,
bhe began to study the conditions
surrounding the manufacture of lum
ber.
She began bushiness at first on a
r.mall scale, but within a few years
prominent timber dealers and lumb-
er manufacturers found that they
had an exceedingly clever rival In
Mils modest unassuming young wo-
man.
Competition in the lumber busi-
ness of the state has In the past
years been very keen but recent ri-
valry has increased with the upward
tendency in tho prices of lumber, un-
til only the shrewdest and best in-
formed dealers have been able to sue
ceed.
Miss Stimpson has had many sharp
business contests with the leading
lumber men in Aroostook County,
but because of her ability to take
advantage of different changes she
has succeeded in Increasing her buV
slness until she now stands as one
of the leading dealers in Maine.

She has shipped thosuandff'of car-
