devotion in the Chicago fire. A woman
with hcart-strings torn with agony
watched the roof of her house glowing
with predictions i!amcs Those dear to her
still remained in the building; was il
any wonder that her eye lighted with an
almost maniac glare, and her frantic
movements showed all the torture she
was enduring? 1t was too much-too
much Before the alarmed bystanders
could stop her she had rushed desperate
ly into the flaming house, animated by an
heroic selfsac rifice. Let us rejoice that
it was rewarded; she emerged unframed,
carrying in her noble arms the innocent
creatures she had saved-four cats howl

The Upper Des Noines, commenting on
IA letter written to the Toledo Btade,
wherein the correspondent denominates
Northwestern Iowa as the grasshopper
country" a vast. trceieSs prairie region,
replies: THE article is Il tissue of false
hoods from first to last, there not being
sufficient of truth to cement the mass to-
gether. This is no more the land of
the grasshopper' than is Oregon, Cali
fornia, Utah, Dakota, Kansas, Nebraska
or in fact any other State lying between
the 41st and 45th degrees of latitude. If
the writer of that SANDER on our fair
state Will but take the trouble 10 post
himself ii little he viii find that these
same pests have, at some time or another,
devastated portions of every State, his
own included, between the parallels above
named. Hence it is as uni ust to call this
portion of Iowa the grasshopper coun-
try as it would be to any OF the other
States mentioned"
r. THE Chrtsttan Iatel2igencer tells this
story: We know of a case in which IA
mother and her sister, her daughter, and
her son-in-law were furnished with
good suit OF rooms, handsomely fitted
up, with more than simply decent cloth
ing, and with well-ordered table, by
the pitiful supplications of the aged sis
ter, who made frequent and regular visits
to certain set of offices down town.
This was spoken of in the family as
going down to the bank to draw Il little
deposit This source of income not being
deemed sufficient to meet the wants of
the son-in-law, a retired lawyer who
was a little fastidious in the matter OF
dressing gowns, slippers and cigars, a
strike was made on new set of givers.
The matter was referred by one of the
latter to faithful city visitor of the
poor, who called, reported, and the result
was not only no new gifts, but even the
bank before mentioned suspended pay
ment, and the young man was actually
driven to the cruel alternative of going
to work or go ing hungry"
