They are not denOnstrative or declama-
tory. They don't shrek, or wiring their
hands, or make a fuss of any sort. They
are gOod-nature itself But they are also
logic itself, and resolution itself, and pluck
itself. They simply stand upon their
rights. Satisfied of the strength of their
position, they content themselves with OPP
posing to legalized injustice that passive
resistance which is sometimes the hardest
of all to overcome. 1t is rather a fine
spectacle when you come to think of it,
and wlthal very suggestive one.
1t will not be creditable either to the
hearts or heads of the woman suffrage
party if Abby Smith and her sister are left
to stand alone to fight this battle of prin-
ciple unaided. That party numbers in its
ranks justly distinguished lawyers; we
could mention one or two who live within
an hours ride of Glastonbury 1t also
numbers a great many men and women of
wealth. Here is chance for them to
prove their faith by their works; they are
not likely to have, as they could not well
ask, a better one And, in these matters,
" chance " is synonym for duty" We
submit that subscribing to the Abby Smith
Defense Fund is the first business in order.

An Unimpeachable Witness.

Solomon was called upon to decide some

cases he had to decide one about the own

two motherlv women. \ suit something

The bird disappeared from his cage one
day. The owner, in day or two, visited
the shop of bird-man to look around
among the tuneful prisoners. One fellow
appeared to know him, but the man had
no recollection of the feathered acquaint-

bird seemed to say by the twinkling of his

What the Gramgers Of Iowa are Doiug.

The State Grange of Iowa has purchas-
ed the entire patent of the Werner Har-
vester 1t is represented rs equal, if not
superior, to any other harvester. At least
they propose to sell and guaranty it to be
equal to the Marsh or Low, Adams and
French harvesters. They are now ready
to receive applications. 1t is to be manu-
factured by Waldron Bios. of Dcs Moines,
and probably two or three other places
They propose to sell at $40. This looks
like business Now let all the Patrons
come up to the work and sustain our Exc
cutive Committee and the State Grange in
their contracts, and one Of the great vic
tories is achieved for which we are organ
lied. 1t is the intention of having as
many manufactured as there is a demand
for. So soon as the National Grange
meets in February, there will probably be
other announcements made which will
convince the world that the order means
work.
An arrangement has been made with
the Weed sewing machine by which it can
be had at 40 per cent below the former
price. And arrangements have been made
with other articles and ftrm implements,
the official announcements of which will
be soon made. This is the beginning of
the fruits OF thlS organization, and so
soon as plans and contracts can be made,
and the order is more thoroughly estab-
! lished, we will be able to dictate our own
terms to other manufacturers, instead OF
/ begging, as we have been the last wear
The order has been laughed at, and manu-
facturers have spurned our advances, but
the day of our triumph is at hand Acom-
binati0n of 900, 900 farmers, which is like
" to be doubled in nine months, hold a
power not to he baffled, nor is it safe to
tempt them to rash resolutions, or attempt
to oppose their plans. 1t has already far
exceeded, in its wholesome arrangements
more than its most ardent friends antici-
pated so early in its history.
1t is estimated that 300 of the Werner
Harvesters will have to be manufactured
by next June to supply the demand in the
United States after which, if it is the sue.
cess anticipated, there will be II largely in
creased demand for it. Other manufac-
turers have driven the Patrons to this re-
sort, and ruinous reduction of prices o.
all reapers, which is anticipated to break
our manu- facturing down, will avail them
nothing, as we will buy and sell our own

THE PERILs OF MOLASsES CANDY.-A
Newark (N. j. husband brought home
hunk of molasses candy for his wife the
other evening. His wife wears false teeth.
The candy was of an adhesive nature.
She helped herself to a generous hunk, and
planted both rows of teeth in it. There
they remained. Strenuous were her ef-
forts to release them, but she was not sue
cessfnl. She wanted TO say something to
him that the candy not only prevented,
but the tone of which from its prominent
quality it debauched. Bnt she could not
get her jaws apart. Then she went to the
sink and dropped the whole mass, teeth
and candy. in basin. Again she looked
at him as if she was on the point of saying
something he would be interested in, but
every effort was broken up and destroyed
by the orphaned jaws. Imagine woman
"a direct descendant of EVEN such a
fix. Think of the mighty thoughts surg
ing and battling through her brain; think
of the torrent Of eloquence bursting from
her throat with a roar and striking out into
the air a vapor; think of the blazing eyes,
the distended nostrils, the trembling frame,
the nervous hands Picture her thus. tear
/ ing the miserable candy from the glisten-
ing teeth, and comprehend if you can, o.
man! the velocity with which the freed
teeth were slapped into their place. and
with which that wretched man subdued
his merriment and tore out of that house.

Mills THEORY OF HAPPINESs--Those
only are happy who have their minds fixed
on some object other than their own hap
piness-on the happiness of others, on the
Improvement of mankind, even on some
art or pursuit, followed, not as means,
but as itself an ideal end Aiming thus at
something else, they find happiness by the
way. The enjoyments of life are suffi-
cient to make it a pleasant thing. when
they are taken en- passa,a. without being
made principal object. Once make them
so, and they are Immediately felt to be in
sufficient. They will not bear scrutiniz-
ing examination. Ask yourself whether
you are happy, and you cease to be So.
The only chance is to treat not happiness,
but some end external to it, as the purpose
Of life. Let your self-consciousness, your
scrutiny, your self-interrogation, exhaust
themselves on that; and, if otherwise for
tunately circumstanced, you will inhale
happiness with the air you breathe, with
out dwelling on it or thinking about it,
without either forestalling it in imagina-
ton or putting it to flight by fatal ques-
tioning.

THE BATTLE OF GLASTONBURY.

We ask every thoughtful man who has
the ballot, and every thoughtless woman
who is in the habit of saying she doesn't
want it, to read Abby Smiths story of the
New Years call paid her by the tax-col-
lector of Glastonbury. 1t is well worth
reading, if only for the quaint simplicity
of the style. This is a bit of Defoe's Eng
lish, ladies and gentlemen. But the mat
ter is still more noteworthy than the man
ner, and it is to this that we particularly
want to direct your attention.
In refusing to continue paying heavier
taxes, year by year, than any other prop
erty-owners in Glastonbury, while refused
p voice in assessing and spending them,
Abby Smith and her sister as truly stand
for the American principle as did the citi-
zens who ripped open the tea-chests in
Boston barbor, or the farmers who leveled
