The Way Patrons DO.

One of the incidental objects of the
new order of Patrons of Husbandry
was fttingly illustrated in the territory
of the Burr Oak grange, Reno town
ship. on Monday last. 1t appears that
at meeting of the grange on Satur-
day evening, it came to the knowledge
If the members that one of their
number had been afflicted with sick
ness and death in his family, and his
spring work was in consequence very
much behind hand. Whereupon it
was at once arranged that his fellow
Patrons should turn out on the sue
ceeding Monday to his assistance
Accordingly early Monday morning,
greatly to the bewilderment of the
afflicted brother, who was Just able to
get'to the door of his house, the neigh
bors came trooping in with their teams
and plows till there was seventeen
plows running at one time in his fields.
At night his blowing was done for the
spring, and his fields ready for seed
ing. That is what we call practical
cooperation, which has in it a touch
of nature that makes the world akin.

The Old-FashiOned Mother.

Thank God some of us have an
old fashioned mother. Not a woman
of the period, enameled and painted,
with her great chignon, her curls and
hustle, whose white jeweled hands
never have felt the clasp of baby fng-
crs, but dear old-fashioned, sweet
voiced mother, with eyes inwhose clear
depths the love light shone, and brown
hair, threaded with silver, lying smooth
upon her faded cheek. Those dear
hands, worn with toll, gently guided
our tottering steps in childhood, aud
smoothed our pillow in sickness, even
reaching out to us in yearning tender
ness when her sweet spirit was bap-
tised in the early spray of the river.
Blessed is the memory of an old fash
Toned mother. 1t floats to us now like
the beautiful perfume of some wood
land blossom. The music of other
voices may be lost, but the enhancing
memory of hers will echo in our souls
forever. Other faces will fade away
and be forgotten, but hers will shine
on until the light from heavens por-
tails shall glorify our own.
When IN the htful pauSes Of busy
life our feet wander back to this old
homestead, and crossing the well-worn
threshold, stand once more, in the
low, qaint room, so hallowed by their
presence. how the feeling of childish
Innocence and dependence comes over
us. and we sit down in the molten sun
shine streaming through the western
window, just where, long years ago, We
knelt by our mothers knee lisping
Our Father. How many times, when
the tempter turned on us, has the mem
oryofthOse sacred hours, that mother
words, her faith and prayers, saved us
from plunging into the deep abyss of
sim Years have filled great drifts
between her and us, but they have not
hidden from our sight the glory of her
pure, unselfsh love.

A Granger Tribunal.

The Western Oranges have adopted
in some places, the plan of settling dis
putes in regard to matters of debt and
the like between their members by
means of arbitration, instead of resort
ing to suit in court. The court of
arbitration is composed of a jury of
neighbors and mutual friends selected
for the occasion. Each party makes
his own statement and offers witnesses,
and decision is given promptly 1t
cannot be denied that for the equita-
bic and fair adjustment of great
many cases this plan, in theory at least,
is much better than the common prac-
tice Of resorting to the agency of the
courts, where the Intervention of
Judges, juries and lawyers is required.
How it will work. in practice, is an
other question. There is strong feel
ing of pugnacity in the hearts of most
persons. Men are quick to resent the
slightest appearance that they are be-
ing imposed upon in business trans
action, and they will frequently spend
a thousand dollars in the costs of a
suit rather than be cheated out of a
hundred. The history of the causes
celebres of the courts might be largely
increased in bulk by accounts of law
suits over the price of pig or COW,
in which the sum of few dollars,
originally in dispute, has been aug
mented by trials, protracted for years,
to hundreds of dollars Even in more
important cases the litigants find them
selves, at the close of their suit, in
which numerous counsel have aston
ished juries by eloquent and powerful
arguments. in the predicament of the
two cats in the fable, who carried their
claim to a piece of cheese before the
monkey justice. Neither are men
readily disposed to accept as final and
conclusive the decision of an arbitra-
ton which is adverse to themselves
They are apt to suspect foul play, and
to find some reason, satisfying to them
selves, for bringing their case before a
judicial tribunal which does not rely
on moral means only, but has the pow
er to compel obedience to its decisions.
But, Notwithstanding all this, the
experiment which the Western Gran
yes are making is well worth trying
The legal profession has many able
and distinguished members who will
unhesitatingly say that many of the
cases which are brought to them to be
tried in court, could and should be set
tied by the parties themselves, with
the assistance of few of their neigh
bors. If the Oranges succeed in max
ing arbitration popular by means of
their example and moral influence, the
saving to their own members will be
immense in lawyers fees and the fees
of court officers, to sayuothing of the
great saving of time, and the avoid
ance of personal luminosity in many
cases. Some of the ablest lawyers
that the country has ever produced
always endeavored to settle the cases
of their clients privately, before re-
sorting to the courts. The Oranges
will deserve well of the country if they
shall succeed in making arbitration
more frequent, and will receive the
hearty thanks of judges and the better
portion of the members of the bar,
who are often annoyed beyond meas
IRE by the introduction of trivial eases
in court.-COmier- Journal.

aud making use of it, whether he or
dered it or not, is held to be a subscrib-
er.
z. If subscribers pay in advance

A TEsT.-A wealthy bachelor was
taken seriously i'll, and Immediately a
host of nephews, nieces, and cousins
assembled round him, to express their
sympathy. He told them all gruffiy
that he desired quiet above everything
else; therefore he would remember no
one in his will who came near him du-
ring his illness. His kindred all de-
parted, but continued to make the
most eager inquiries as to the progress
of his malady.
His condition daily grew worse, but
no relatives visited him with the ex-
ception of niece named Josephine,
who insisted upon nursing him during
his illness. .......
IF you are determined to remain
here" said the sick man, l will assur-
edly disiDherit you.
She replied, You may of course do
so, uncle, if you like; but you are too
i'll to be left without any relations to
care for you, and | am determined to
stay"
The sick man died. At the open
ing of his will it was found that he
had left the whole of his property to
Josephine; because she, 8" as the will
said, was the only one of all his rela-
tons who had shown any disinterested
regard for him" -s

OUR BOYS.
The whole house feels the racket;
Behold the knee OF Harvey's pants,
The elbows of his fackef.

sH
There come the boys, Oh dear the noise,
The whole house feels the racket;
Behold the knee OF Harvey's pants,
The elbows OF his jacket
But never mind II eyes keep bright
And limbs grow straight and Timber:
We'd rather lose the trees whole bark;
Than ind unsound the timber.
Now hear the tops and marbles rollI
The fioors-oh woe betide them
And must watch the bannisters,
For know boys who ride them!
Look well as you descend the stairs,
I often find them haunted
BY ghostly toys that make no noise,
Just where the noise is wanted.
The very chairs are tied in pairs
And made to prance and capef;
What swords are whitfield out of sticks
What brave hats made of paper
The dinner bell peals loud and well,
To tell the milkman's coming;
And then rush of ''steam car trains,
Set all our ears humming.
How oft say, what shall do
To keep these children quiet?"
If / could find a good recipe,
Icertainly should try II.
But what to do with these wild boys,
And all their din and clatter,
Is really quitea grave affair
No laughing, trifiing matter.
"Boys will be boys'-but not for long;
All could we bear about us
This thought-how very soon the boys
viii learn TO do without us.
How soon but tall and deep-voiced men
viii gravely call US Mother"
Or We be stretching empty hands
From this world to tie other.
More gently we should chide the noise,
And when night quells the racket,
Stitch in but loving thoughts and prayer
While mending pants and jackets.

INVENTION is not not entirely con-
fined to the Chinese. A Brookfeld
lady has had a goose pleasantly engag-
ed on several eggs. 1t is a well-estab-
lished tradition that a goose will
not remain contented unless there
is a gahder in sight. 1t is a
beautiful illustration of the con-
fiding and lovable dependence of the
sex About the time the setting was
half over, the gander in this case died.
Here was dilemma. The eggs were
not far enough gone to make good gos-
ingS, and yet rather too far to make
good omelettes. She was not able to
borrow a gander, and SO she resorted
to artifce. She took looking glass
and placed it in front of the nest, so
the goose was able to see its own re-
Election, and being nothing but goose,
the setting continued, and in course of
time eight fatherless little goslings en-
tered Brookfeld. This is not a subtle
argument in favor of woman's rights,
but simple statement of an honest
fact.-Danbry Neios.

dress, writes Captain Crosstree, the
most extensively dressed man l ever
saw was an African chief on the gold

thoroughly with palm oil, and then
powdered him from head to foot with
gold dust. You never saw in your life
man got up so utterly regardless of

A YANKEE, named Pease, has taken
possession of the BONN Islands, a
group lying some five hundred miles
off the coast Of Japan, and has raised
the American flag over his dominions.
The San Francisco Bulletin says they
would make desirable station for our
navy in eastern waters. They were
uninhabited till 1926, when a settle
ment was made by some sailors. In
1853 Commodore Perry recommended
them as an available depot for the
steamers which he thought would some
day ply between Japan and California.
Subsequently Pease visited the islands
and took possession of the largest, called
Peel Island. He commenced raising
sheep, and has become prosperous by
trading them off in Japan. Mr.. Pease,
who is flying the stars and stripes, is
ready to make formal surrender of
right, title and interest to the people of
the United States for suitable con-
sideratiOn-amOunt not stated. 1t is
not known whether Japan assumes any
sovereignty over the BONN Islands,
but it is intimated that if the United
States desire them no objection would
be raised by the Government.

KEEP UP YOUR STRoKE.-The pub
lie know when an advertiser is timid
and halfscared and when he means
business, and believes in himself and
his goods, and it will act accordingly.
Many an advertiser misses near-at-
hand success by quitting too soon.
The public won't rush in and buy you
out hsfrst day; it has other things to
think of. Some will read your an
nouncement and buy at once; others
will glance at it one week, read it the
next, and buy the third; others will be
haunted by it till they are, at last, OBJ
liged to look youup to ease their minds,
and you are, meanwhile, making your
name and business familiar to thous-
ands, who will come to you some time.
Pay no attention to silly notion, en-.
couraged chiefly by people who have
got TO be prosperous, that tits notquite
the proper thing to push your business
through the newspapers. 1t is just as
legitimate as putting up sign over
your door, and far more modest than
sending out drummers to worry people
into trading with you. for your news
paper advertisement addresses no one
in particular, and whoever buys your
goods in consequence, really does Sc
without your asking.
