Time is scandalously wasted. Many 4 man wastes so much time in busi- ness that he hasn't any left in whicn to make himself worth talking to or to insure his being buried with re- gret.

In the second row work as for the | first, but in order to shape the end, work two stitches in the second stitch before the end, three in the end, each row until the required size, then work a row of one treble into each stitch in every other row of the doubld stitches. For the cdging on the straight side, work one double into a stitch, 5 chain, one treble into the first, pass over two stitches and repeat. For the loop work a row of chain stitches three inches long, and fasten to the center of top with double stitches. The upstanding treble rows may be worked on the other side of the hold- er, or it may be lined with a plece of flannel or a piece cut from the arm of an old kid glove, or the back of a large size glove.

Later he found that the Are Interested in a Somewhat Curious Chain of Events, Cheyenne, Wyo—A little-known ro- mance of the Astor family is being told among the ranchers of the North Platte valley, where the old original John Jacob Astor had a fur-trading | post just a century ago. The first link in the chain was forged by the Astor traders in 1812. The second was created when young Williamp H, Force came to Wyoming thirty years ago and purchased a ranch upon which were the remams of the old Astor trading post. The third has to do with the time when Kate Talmadge of New York came to visit Force's sister and remalned to marry the brother, the courtship taking place around the old trading post. The fourth link was the birth of little Madeline Force. Other links are the marriage of Madeline Force and John Jacob As- tor and the probable return of the old Astor trading post site to the great- great-grandson of the original Astor, himself bearing the name of the found- er of the American family. " A century ago last December seven trappers, headed by W. Price Hunt, who was returning overland from As- torfa, Ore., stopped on the Ncrth Platte river, built winter quarters and i Mrs. John Jacob Astor. lopenud a trading post.

Along in 1883 when 8o many eastern men of wealth were investing in great western ranches, William H. Force and others hought a big tract of land in eastern Wyoming and western Ne- braska. On the tract was the old As- tor trading post, now in ruins. Along with Force were the Arbuckles of cof- fee fame and some others. Western ranchers say the books of the com- pany showed an ownership of €,000 brood mares, Mr. Force was manager. Mr. Force has long lived in the cast, but he retains ownership of the “P, 0.” ranch—one of the largest In the west, This ranch probably will some day come into poseession of Force's grand- eon, the posthumous son of John Jiacob Astor, who went down in the Titaniec. With the ranch will, of course, go the site of the first trading post estab- lished by the Astors in the trans-Mis sissippi country. HAS BANKNOTE MEAL !
