The Grange advance. [volume] (Red Wing, Minn.) 1873-1877, 1875-12-22

Are you going out with me this morn
ing, Mildred!"
Evelyn was standing before the glass,
adjusting the pink, foam.like plume Of
her exquisite hat
"No-Aunt Patience is very i'll, and I
really think some one ought to stay with
her.
chow, Mildred, how absurd you are!"
Mamma will be very angry. and you
know MIR. Raymond is going with US! p
"Evelyn,'' said the younger sister,
looking up with quiet determination in
her grave brown eyes, II love Charles
Glenn, and him only. If l cannot marry
Charley then I prefer to remain single.''
Evelyn turned away with an an nv toss
of the pink plrmes, and Mildred went up
to the post of duty at Miss Patience
Perkins bedside.
you're good girl, my dear "a good
girl,' croaked the old crone. at isn't
every one who would give up her own
pleasures to sit beside an old woman on
sunshiny morning like this. I'll tell you
what, dear, I mean to leave you that
rose.geranium in my will.''
81 will take good care Of it, aunt she
said.
Il know you will, Mildred-I know
you will, and you are the only living
person I'd leave it to.''
She was silent for few minutes. and
then spoke.
"Milly, it would be dreadful fate if q
young girl like you were married for her
money"
Mildred opened wide her brown ewes
was Aunt Patience wandering in her
mind?
r'6ut if some good young man loved
you for yourself alone, that would be
quite diferent-quite different. Milly,
give me drink of water; my old lips are
parched. and then place my little eera.

1t is estimated that about two.thirds
of the surface Of the globe is covered
with water. Although millions of living
creatures Stake their thirst daily, the
quantity of water has not been mate
rally diminished for centuries, at least
not since the introduction of drinking
saloons, which prove a great saving Of
water and are thereby Of immense benefit
to navigation.
When we consider the prevalence of
the custom to dub every body who went
to the wars with the title of Captain,
Colonel, General, &c. there is peculiar
appropriateness in the following resolu
ton which was introduced at a meeting
of confederate soldiers at Atlanta, Ga,
the other day. Resolved, that the Pres
ident appoint committee of one to in.
quire into the matter of whether there
were any surviving privates of the late
war.

4 Good Investment.

One of the best investments for a
person of small means is building as.
sociation shares. Their cost is but
little, and saving to pay the monthly
dues begets habit of economy which
makes payments easy after a time.
Even girls living out" as domestics
have found means to buy and keep
running building association shares.
and there could be no better invest
ment for them. Even If only one or
two shares are taken, it is accumula.
tion, and little drops make great riv.
ers. Young men and young girls
should endeavor to obtain as many OF
such shares as they can keep running,
If only one or two, for in no other way
can they make money so surely and
safely and with so little outlay.-Rea&
ing EAGLE.

Socialism In Russia,

The Russian Government, with all its;
englnery of repression, Is not competent
to check the growth of socialism. Last
winte4, men suspected OF socialistic views
were arrested by the thousand in differ
ent parts of the empire. 1t was said at
that time that thirty-seven provinces
were tainted with the forbidden faith,
religious and political, for it seems in
Russia to be compound of those two
qualities. Some OF the arrested persons
were tried and transported, or otherwise
punished, others were discharged, and
others were discharged, and others held
over for trial, The empire is now SUBJ
'ected to another alarm. More socialists
and agitators, under various names, have
been seized and indicted. Tho Govern
ment Prosecutor declares that socialism
is rapidly spreading in Russia that the
most ardent propagandists belong to the
upper classes (which is a new turn in tie
movement), and that they include retir-
ed army officers, justices of the peace.
and officials of all grades. Heretofore the
teachers of socialism in the empire have
been mex sf decided talent, but of hum
BILE origin and connections and it may
well make the Government anxious to
see its own sworn supporters and the
aristocracy in the ranks of its internal
enemies. To the many causes of discon-
tent among the poorer classes OF Russia
has been recently added a very severe
CONSUMPTION law, which takes them from
their work and their families and puts
them in the army. In all other Euro
pean countries but Germany-where tho
Government crushas out everything that
threatens it-this same aggravated feel-
ing of discomfort is boldly manifesting
itself for the same reason. The people
are sick of being withdrawn from remu.
nerative labor for the best years of their
lives, and then made food for powder.
Among the dissatisfied masses socialism
now finds more adherents than ever be-
fore; but the hope which they cherish.
that it will ever take tie place of any
form of government in Europe or Amer
lea, still remains the widest of human
dreams.-Journdl of Commerce.

Bowie and the Smoker.

| Here is story that was rela-
ted forty or fifty years ago: A
stagecoach was going along an
Arkansas road. On the back
seat were three women, on the
middle one two men tall and
muscular, while the forward seat
held only a small man, wrapped
up completely in a blanket
After a time one Of the power
full men on the middle seat lit a
cigar and smoked. The smoke
went full in the face of one of
the women,w was both young
and timid. She sfckened and
then requested the man to stop
smoking. This aroused the
rufian in him and he roughly
declared, 81 have paid my fare ;
it is customary to smoke and /
will smoke as much as [ have a
mind to-" Accordingly he took
out a fresh cigar and started the
smoke cloud again. The wo-
man could only add that "smo-
kers ought not to forget to be
gentlemen" This suggestion
excited the mans rage to white
heat. At this point the small
man on the front seat laid aside
his blanket, put his left hand
on the knee of the ruffian, in
order to withdraw his atten-
ton from the woman and to
himself, while with his right
hand he drew a bowie knife
from its case between his shoul-
der blades. Pointing the weap-
Oh at the heart Of the brute and
looking him square in the eye,
the little man quickly said: Il
am Col. James Bowie, and un-
less you throw that cigar away
in one minute 1 will put this
knife in your heart as true as
there is God" The ruffian COM
pretended in an instant with
whom he had to deal and threw
the cigar out Of the window
without adding a word. Col.
Bowie replaced his weapon,
drew his blanket about him and
relapsed into a condition Of ap-
parent indifference. If he had
lived in the ancient times his
contemporaries or the genera
ton following would have made
a god Of him.

Risen from the Dead.

An event occurred recently at
the house of August Sink, the
we'll known hotel proprietor at the
Grand Trunk Junction, which
created an intense excitement
A little child of Edward Dwyer,
an engineer in the employ of the
Michigan Central Railroad Conn
pany, died apparently, and the
funeral arrangements were made.
The body was laid out in the US
ual manner. A shroud was made
for it, and all other preparations
for the funeral, even to the engag-
ing of carriages, were completed.
Just before the time for the funer-
al services to commence, the at
tendants were suddenly startled
by a sharp cry, and to their mo-
mentary horror and cunsterna-
ton, the babe for whose death
they had sorrowed two days was
seen to move. Instantly all was
excitement in the house. Grief
was changed to rejoicing for one
risen, as it were, from the dead,
and the news OF the strange event
went abroad as on the wings Of
lightning. The neighbors flock
ed to see the child thus providen-
TALLY returned from the grave,
and all that day the wondrous
tidings were carried from house
to house. The JOY Of the father
and mother cannot be told. The
fUllness Of their heurts will be
measurably understood by the fa-
theirs and mothers who have put
away their little ones in the earth
forever.

MIDSUMNIER EVE.

A sunset glory lines the west
With streaks of crimson. In the pines
The ring dove murmurs on her nest,
And myriad golden starlets shine.
Upon the fair, calm hour of night,
AS she her sable veil let's fall,
The swallows from the dizzy height
Of ivied steeple twittering call.
AS twilight fades, and darkness grows
Upon the landscape, and the leaves
Of dew-filled flowers slowly close,
And martins gather meath the caves
And on the breast Of silver stream
The lilies quiver, while the sigh
Of rustling night breeze, like a dream,
StiTs their white blooms and passes by
The sleeping swans, with ruffled wings
And head repOsing, slow drift on;
The nightingale melodiOus sings
The blossom laden bough upon.
The FLASHING Of the mill wheel falls
Like music on the farm-boy's ear,
As homeward trudging, blithe he calls,
And whistles when his cot is near.
The lights go out in cottage homes,
The labOrs of the daytime cease;
Abroad the king of slumber roams,
And in his train are-Rest and Peace.
