Of the remaining wo- . men, THE LADIES' HOME { JOURNAL goes to a repre« sentative, selected list; it goes to common-sense, substantial homes, where both price and quality are * an object. There are several women readers to each copy, and the influ- ence of a copy spreads through its readers, There is not a nook or corner of America where THE LADIES' HOME JOURNAL is not read and respected. You can use a hundred publications, and still fail to reach every single woman. By using THE LADIES' HOME JOURNAL alone, you reach a se- lectedpart thatwill leaven the whole mass. .

Wolf Drive at Florenoe—Arragements are being completed for a blg wolf and coyote drive up north of Florence on Sun- day, January 23 About fifty men have & ranged to take part in the drive, and gra: hounds will be brought down from Biair to help out in the fun. The hunters will meet at the farm of Theodore Price, two | miles north of Florence, on the Calhoun | road. The drive will be In tow the'| |river. The wolves ata coyote are getting ipretty bad up there this winter, and = number of calves and sheep have already been killed by them. The drive will be from the timber toward the river, thence north to Calhoun, and then double back | down toward Florence The smallest, but one of the five Central American states, Costa Rica, shows the Ereatest per capita wealth of them all. It has the largest proportion of white popu- |18tion, and in everything that makes a peo- Cartago, which the early Spaniards called ple happy and prosperous it Is the best of the five little republics whose total popu- tion is less than that of Ohlo, and whose total area is but little greater than that of California. The per capita Imports of Costa Rica equal the per capita Imports of the other four republics combined. Its per caplta exports are nearly three times as great as those of its nearest rival, and four times as great as the average for the other four republics. The advantageous position which Costa Rica holde In these particulars is reflected Lin the character of its government. It has petter methods of crop and stock raising. been most free of all the republics from The soclety is studying the question of the civil contention and strife. With property there always comes an added responsibility on the part of the individual, and he does not go to war so lightly as when nothing but his own person ‘is at stake. It is sald that more varieties of plants grow in Costa Rica than in any other piace |in the new world. The exhuberant vee- 4.yry. As the rank and file of the people totion fills the coast and lowiands and reaches to the highest mountains. This bountiful land has 700 kinds of birds. The richest and most precious metals are in its mountains. Pearls are gathered from its waters, as well as the snail which pro- duces the Tyrian purple. The fore abound with the finest dye woods, medi- cinal trees, herbs, cinchona, rosewood, mahogany, cedar, sandal wood and all the firest timber of the two sones. One is hardly prepared for the state- ment that a Costa Rica town has one of the finest theaters in the world, yet San Jose, the capital of the country, boasts this distinction. It has the National theater, which was built at a cost of $1, 200,000. It is said that for perfection of de tall and wealth of decoration It surpasses any bullding in the United States, with the possible exceptions of the Library of Congress and the Boston public library. The best sculptors and artists contributed in making the foyer of this theater equal to the finest of those of Burope. Tho floor of the auditorium can be lifted to the level of the stage by hydraullc pressure, and | this 1s done on the occasion of great balls, | making it one of the largest and finest bunch on all the bananas leaving its terri- ball rooms In the new world. The forests of Costa Rica are not essen- tially different from those of the other Central American states, but they are especially rich in India rubber and the trees that give us quinine. The gathering of India rubber is an Interesting procedure. About thirty-five people constitute the averago party that goes In quest of it. They dress In course cotton clothes, wear sandals and knot red bandana handker- chelfs about thelr heads. Every man carrles his own outfit, consisting of a blanket, sandals, gun, fishing tackle and a machete. The machete Is a universal tool with the natives. Tt is used to defend the hunter from wild beasts, to cut a path through the forest, to trim poles for a hut, or to ftell a tree. A camp is bullt with poles and palm leaves, a fireplace Is made, and then the main work of the expedition begins. The average caoutchouc tree will run dry In a day and vlelds from fifteen to twenty gallons of sap. When this is carrled to camp, it Is first strained, to free It from dirt and leaves, and is then hardened by mingling with the juice of a vine found 1A the forest. After this it is kneddbd like dough and moulded into round cakes. The nativee have thelr own way of mak- ing waterproot goods. They spread a piece of canvas on the ground and pour the sap over It, taking care that the cloth shall have an even coating. To accompiish this they use cocoanut husks or small Oaught Looting & Oar—samuel Garrison, | pagqes. Exposure to the sun completes the Boston Frult company. Job and the goods are ready for When the expedition returns there Is a holiday season. The average’ laborer =pends all he has made while away, and as much more as he can borrow from his employer. When he touches the bottom of his pocket he is ready to return to work. The climate of Costa Rica helps to make it the favored state of Central America. The atmosphere of Its high plateaus is pure and invigorating, and the tempera- tyre remains about the same throughout the year. On account of the malarfal con- ditlons which prevall in Panama, It is necessary to have an accessible post of recuperation in the vicinity, .and the use. Some Things You Want to Know Turbulent, Central America—Fertile Costa Rica. Canal commission grants leave of absence to its employes to go there for their annual vacations. One of the most desirable vicinjtiee is known as the Plateau of Paradise. There are a number of hot springs In the vicinlty that are famous for the healing qualities of their water. An English sanitary expert pronounced this locality as being intended by nature for one of the great sanitarfums of the world Living is s0 cheap that one can board & whole month for $15, including a horse to ride. The Costa Ricens are the most progros- sive agriculturists in Central Amerdea. They bave formed a Natlonal Soclety of Agriculture, whose purpose I8 to encourage most profitable crops, is bringing new ones Into the country and is experimenting with farm machinery to determine what s needed In harvestihg and cultivating. It is also looking after the importation of blooded horses, cattle and other stock with a view to bullding up the stock raising in. are more intelligent than those of neigh- boring countries, as well as more indus- trious, they are quicker to grasp the ad- vantages of these things, The result is that they have doubled thelr exports in twelve years. Banana growing is the principal industry of the republic, and the United Fruit com- rany almost entirely controls this business, The output of bananas has trebled since 18%, and Costa Rica alone sends out more than 10,000,000 bunches a year. Most of the crop comes to the Unlted States, but a strong propaganda is being carried on abroad for the purpose of popularizing the barana in European countries. While the United States buys several thousand ship loads of banenas a year, France demands only ten ship loads, and Germany ocon- sumes less than a hurdred cargoes: Fing- land has acquired the banana eating habit to a greater extent than any of the Euro- pean countries, but even its annual trade Is satistied with 4,000,000 bunches, a quantity Which would be exhausted In a few weeks in the United States, Costa Rica levies a tax of 1 cent a tory. The United Fruit company had the privilege of exporting all its bananas free of duty, but when the Costa, Rican govern- ment wanted ‘to levy a tax the great cor- poration cheerfully agreed to pay it, know- ing full well that it could easily get the duty back at this end of the line. During A recent hearing before the United States| sorate committee on Inteérstate commerece, the methods of the United Fruit company were severely arraigned. It was stated that bananas, once a luxury, were now a necessity sold at every eorner grocery in the land. The representative of the United Fruit company quickly replied that this was the best justification of his company’s methods—it had taken the banana from the 1ist of luxurles, formerly enjoyed only by the well-to-do, and had placed it within the reach of the poor man by making it a cheap and wholesome, addition to his food supply. It was about forty years ago that the first bananas were brought from Central America to the United States. The ploneer barana importer was Charles Frank, a German walter on a steamer plying be- tween Panama and New, York. He ob- iained permission from the captain to take a few bunches of bananas. to Manhattan, where he s0ld them at good prices. This| ploneer met with many reverses, but he persevered, and in the end retired with a fortune. Captain L. D, Baker of Cape Cod, called the milllonaire banana king, founded the He went south with a schooner loaded with notions, and returned with a cargo of tropical produce. His success was such that he purchased large estates and turned them into banana plantations. The Boston Fruit company | was the parent of the United Frult com- pany, one of the great enterprises of our tme. This great corporation now owns or operates hundreds of square miles of territory and controls a fleet of fruit car- rying steamers which visit every port that has tropical fruit to sell.

BAIRD GETS IN HIS WORK Gets Balm for His Fine by Pullin Down KFire of Law on Fritehett “Provoking As- sault.” The state of Nebraska is satisfied over the outcome of the legal end of the Fitch- ett-Baird feud in Dundee, but it is doubt- ful If either George E. Fitchett or Henry Balrd is thus content. Of the two Mr. Baird is probably in the happler frame of mind just now for Fltchett was fined $10 and costs in county court on the charge of “provoking an as- sault.” This evens matters up somewhat because a short time ago Baird, who was provoked into the assault, caught a 25 fine from Judge Lesle. Baird turned around and préferred the charge sgainst Fitchetr. Deputy Coun'y A‘torney Magney, who had prosecuted Baird successfully, moved with agllity to the other side of the table and fell into as confidential a chat with Baird as he had been with Fitchett. Baird recelved a fine $15 higher than did Fitchett, but Judge Leslle took Into con- sideration the personal pleasure Which Baird experfenced in pummeling Fitchett. | In effect, 4t least, Judge Leslie's decl- | ston to fine Fitchett sustains the contention of Mr. Magney that if one man calls an- other a certain epithet not commonly heard in polite society, the man called the name has a right to rise up In his man- hood and bounce his fists off the other man's head. There was considerable evi- dence that beforé the assault Fitchett did thus villity Baird. Another ground of provocation of the as- sault, according to the testimony, was that Fitchett is a bit careless—to put it mildly— In arraying himself of mornings before a window on the side of his house next to the Bairds'. How much of Fitchett's tollet was thus dally completed Is in dispute, but Fitchett himself admitted that more dressing than might be deemed seemly did take place in front of the window.

TWENTY-TWO YEARS AGO BLIZZARD SWEPT STATE Wednesday the Anniver: ble Winter Storm t whelmed Nebraska in 1888, blissard was on In earnest. It continued with Increasing severity, reaching Its height at 7 o'clock, when street car triffic ‘was abandoned. Sleighs were blown -over and the ooccu- pants had to seek refuge wherever most convenfent. Many Omaha people were caught In the storm over In Counell Bluffs and had to remain there over night. The suffering throughout the city was intense and it taxed the herolsm and cour- age of the boldest to go to the rellef of the distressed. Several llves were lost In the city during the storm, The greater loss of life wes out in the state, in the remote sections where rellef wes not to be obtained. sary of the “big blizard,” which yet holds the record as the most severe storm that ever visited Nebraska, as well as the most remarkable winter storm ever recorded in the west. The storm exacted Its toll of many human lives and suffering, and was marked by aots of herofsm, not alone in Omaha, ‘but In every part of Nebraska. The early morning of January 12, 1888, was a typical January day, a temperature of % degrees cbove zero prevalling and a Iight snow falling, with the wind from the southeast. Sufficlent snow had falien dur- ing the forencon and early afternoon to tempt people to. go slelgh riding, and slelghing partiss were scattered about the city and suburbs enjoying the day.
