Emil Erickson is seen every
Sunday at a regular hour heading
for the north and the gait he has
on seems would take him to the
north pole. But coming down a
ways there is some one in the
shanty door who attracts his at-
tention so he calls in there. There
is $10000 in it stay with it

Imagine a kingdom within a
kingdom; the inmost heart of the
richest and. most fertile region of
rich and fertile Africa hidden deep
in inaccessible forests and trackless
swamps; a land whose secrets are
so jealously guarded in order that
its owner may enjoy its spoils
undisturbed that until the debate
of July 1903 in the Belgian
House the world was unaware cf
its very existence; a land shrouded
darkly in mystery of which the
tale will never be fully told.
Somewhere in the back country" it
lies another El Dorado but only
one white man who is not an agent
either of the State or of the favored
companies has everbeen knpwn to
pass its Doundanes. Ana it is

f --TTirmr mMoTWrfltmrffiV has torn
from it ill the ten. years sincef he
marked; it for his. own is his secret
and his. onlv. But one may guess
at the amount Ironi the.- tact tnat
it is- the richest rubber-yielding
districton the' State and that the
"reports of its depopulation show

Risky.
Senator Tillman piloted a con-
stituent around the capitol building
for a. while and then having work
to do on the floor conducted him
to the senate gallery. After an
hour or so the visitor approached
a gallery doorkeeper and said:
"My name is Jones I am a friend
of Senator Tillman's. He brought
me here and I want to go out and
look around a bit. I thought I
would tell you so I can gef back
- -in-
"That's all right" said the door-
keeper "but I iay not be here
when you return. In order to pre-
vent any mistake I will give you
the password so that you can get
your seat .again. .
Jones' eyes rather popped out at
this. "What's the word" he ask-
ed. "idiosyncrasy."
"What?!'
"idiosyncrasy."
"I guess Fll stay inr" said Jones:
Colored dress clothes are. to be
worn by men this year according
to the tailors. It will be discourag-
ing to the man who has invested
his savings in a green dress suit to
have the girl whom he has asked
to a dance inform him that she in-
tends wearing a purple gown.
The department of agriculture
has found a new poultry food which
makes the hen lay an egg every
day. Nevertheless the rooster will
probably crow just as" triumphantly
as ever.
