Another: plan of making the Grange
Immediately beneficial has been adopt.
ed in some Of the Eastern Oranges. A
black board is always kept in readiness
at their meeting on which are entered
by the members as they come in, stock
and other property for sale or exchange,
stock strayed or stolen, and such other
information as they desire to bring be-
fore the members.
The Patrons Of Goodhue County
have made the Grange practical by dis.
cussing the cost Of raising wheat, aid
other questions, and there are thous-
and ways in which each meeting may
be made not only time Of interest and
pleasure, hut also Of profit.
The Grange is the outgrowth of ne
cessity and should be made necessity
to each member.

Brutal Huffianisun.

Mrs. Duncan Murray. who lives near
the Yellow Bank, Lac-qui-parle county,
came into Lac-qui.parle on Wednesday
last to enter complaint against two Of
her neighbors for assault and battery.
It appears from her story that her
father, an old man about eighty years
of age, and her son, a lad Of ten years,
went in search Of their cattle and
found them in neighbours yard. The
old man went to the house to pay for
whatever damage they might have
done, and was met by two rufians,
who knocked him down and abused
him in shameful manner. The boy,
who was on horseback, had got the
cattle out of the yard and had started
to drive them home. when he was seen
by one of the fellows. who ran after
him, pulled him roughly from the horse
and led the horse back to the stable.
The old man and boy were finally al
lowed to depart, and on reaching home
related their story. Then Mrs. Murray
and her oldest son went to get tho
horse. but were met by the same ruff
fans and most numerically beaten.
The sheriff Of the county started We'd
nesday to arrest the assailants.

CREDIT SYSTEM.

1fthere is any one thing more than
another which the patrons have agitat-
ed, it is that Of doing away with the
whole credit system, and now we notice
that Eureka Grange, 345, Iowa, have
pledged themselves by resolution not
to go inI debt for goods unless, necessity
compelled to do so. This is one step
in advance Of merely talking of the
evils of credit, and now if they live up
to their resolution the whole thing will
be remcdied SO far as they are concern
ed. The way for all other Oranges to
get out Of the difficulty is to pass SINH
lar resolutions and then to live up to
them, but the trouble is, that it is so
much easier to talk and resolve, than it
is to refrain from buying what We see
and want, and then trusting to the
chances Of the future for the means to
Fay.
If we could only remember that every
debt We make is a mortgage, to the
amount Of the debt, on all that We have
of both property and honor, it might be
. little check upon US, since the &C.
knowledged fact that We have to pay
nearly double price for articles On
time, has not proved sufficient.

The Way They Serve People i'm
Kan60S,

The following comes to us in a paper
printed in Kansas, where the occur.
renee is said to have taken place. We
do not vouch for its truthfulness, but
hope that our friends on the frontier
or elsewhere will take due warning and
not indulge to any extent in the rather
unpopular habit Of seating Dirt
One of the strangest stories Of the
day, and the NEST novel phase of the
grasshopper question that has yet pre-
sented itself, comes to US from Phillips
county. About year ago, a family
from Georgia, Of German descent, nam
ed Boomershine, located near the west
ern line Of Phillips county. The oldest
daughter, aged about eighteen, was ad-
dicted to the habit Of eating clay from
the road side. Early this summer the
grasshoppers settled down in that re.
gion, and soon began depositing their
eggs in the gardens, fields and roadside.
The Boomershine girl went on with her
clay eating. as usual, with no unusual
effect, until a short time ago, when she
began complaining of an uneasy feeling
in her interior, and commenced
gradually swelling up, like
one with the dropsy. The
symptoms increased, and change be.
gan to take place in her appetite. She
no longer had q taste for clay, but
seemed to banker after the blades of
corn, leaves of trees, dog fennel and
other weeds, and she said She frequent
ly felt as if she could take wings and
fly away. DR.. LeDuc, Of Phillip lipsburg.
Was called in, who said that he had
never before met with q case Of the
kind in his practice, or read of one in
the books. He decided that she must
be laboring under some strange hallu-
cination Of the mind. Things W went on
thus until recently, when one day the
grasshoppers scommenced rising and
taking their fight: The girl looked At
them for while, when, unable to re-
strain herself longer, she rushed out Of
the house, tapped her arms Is if
they were wings, rose about ten feet IN
the air, and then fell to the ground
dead. Dr. L. DUO made, = post NOR:

MAKING THE GRANGE USEFUL.

SdAKlNG THE GRANGE USEFUL.
The American people are intensely
practical, and all those who come to
this country from foreign parts soon
become imbued with the same utili-
tartan spirit. This is probably result
of the condition of the country as we'll
IS Of the people.
The country is new aud much Of it
unsubdued, presenting the very great
est incentive to ambition and calling
out all the forces that kind nature af-
fords and that wise inventive skill
can combine, and yet leaving untold
work to be done. The people are gen.
orally in moderate circumstances, de-
pendent upon their wits and their labor
Cor the necessaries and comforts of life.
With this condition of things, it is not
to be wondered at that the people seek
that which is useful. Since utility is
necessary to success, it is well to make
= virtue Of necessity, and make the
Grange intensely practical. This
is being done in general
Way by combining for the building of
mills and manufactures and for other
purposes
By these combinations and enterpris-
Is the wealth of the country is being
increased and . general good accom-
plished, but these enterprises do very lit
tie toward keeping mp the desired inter-
est in the individual Oranges.
Every member of Zach Grange should
feel that his particular Grange is q prac-
tical benefit to him.a benefit, too, great
er than he could, by the same outlay Of
time and money in any other way, ob-
tain. This is being done by some
Oranges and can be done by ill.

more softly, "we should be glad to see you
in either"
There is a farther note in my diary for
that Christmas day-something about Miss
Linton-which perhaps it will be as well
to let remain private. But about two
years afterwards, and not so very long ago,
there was a wedding breakfast given at the
Domvilles. Crumms WAS there to wait.
and Crumms' feelings bad overpowered
him and required soothing. From being
unusually calm, Crumms became unusually
excited, and was with difficulty prevented
from solemnly blessing the happy couple,
and making a speech to the effect that the
joyous occasion was brought about by him
taking the bridegroom out waiting on
certain Christmas day.

The way to quarrel with wife is to
wait until she is at her toilet preparatory
to going out. She will be sure to ask you
if her bonnet is straight. Remark that
the lives Of nine tenths of the women are
passed in thinking whether their bonnets
are straight. and wind up with the remark
that you never knew but one woman who
had common sense about her. Wife will
ask you who that was. You will, with a
sigh, reply,
"Ah never mind"
Wife will ask you,
Why didn't you marry herr"
You say abstractedly,
'Ah why indeed
The climax is reached by this time, and
regular row is sure to follow.

SOME OLD LETTERS. In the January
number of !SrriJnerS Monthly, is begun the
publication of a series of letters written
from England in the time of William ~,
by young American lady. They are writ
ten in the most familiar style, and without
thought of publicity, and, therefore, lave
a naive brightness and freedom. Not only
do they give amusing pictures of the social
life of the times, but they contain interest
ing notes of famous people, with many of
whom the young correspondent was we'll
acquainted. The publishers believe that
subsequent installments will be found still
more interesting than the first. Additional
value is given to the series 10y the reproduce
