ALpES FRCIT PRESERVING COMPANY. -
One of the most prominent and important
industries that has grown up in our midst
during the last few months. Is the Albany
Alden Fruit Preserving Company. Under
the present management this Institution IS
in n fair way to become very profitable TO
the stockholders, besides creating a market
for a large amount of fruit which hereto
fore has been almost dead loss to prodac-
ers. because of the want of such market.
IT all the stock iii the Company was taken,
thus enabling the management to increase
their facilities for preserving fruits. q still
greater demand would be created for the
products of orr orchards and gardens. en4
conraging the production Of greater variety
and better kinds of large and small fruits
for the use of the Company. There seems
to be steadily increasing demand fog the
various fruits and vegetables PIT up by the
Alden process, and If the Company IN this
city were able to secure and preserve all
the surplus fruits, etc, raised in Linn coua-
ty, there would be no trouble in Gisposine
Of it at remuneratiEc rates. IT by invest
ing little money now we can build up ar
industry that will be able TO preserve al
the surplus fruits and vegetables raised ir
the county. paying the producer a tail
price therefor IN cash. is it not the part o
good economy and business sense TO make
such investment If these are f:lcts. vii
not orr people see 70 it that all the stoct
in the Fruit Preserving Company Is taker
at an early day.

WHAT ILLINOIS WIVES CAN Do
The married women of Illinois acquired
by the law of 1874 the right to do almost
everything. They can sue and be sued
in their own names. They can-blessed
privilege-sue their own particular ty-
rants. When a husband deserts his
wife, the latter has the custody Of her
children. If the husband stays out of
the State a year, and does nothing to
support the wife during that time, or if
he is imprisoned in the penitentiary,
the wife can, upon obtaining an order
from a court of record, manage his
property absolutely. The wife is not at
all liable for the husbands debts in
CURED before marriage, and only in ex-
ceptional circumstances for those IN
CURED afterward. She can manage any
business independently, except in case
of partnership, which she cannot en-
ter without her husbands consent. A
wife's earnings cannot be touched by a
husband or his creditors. A married
woman can acquire, possess, and sell,
real and personal property as freely as a
married man can. This list of abilities
is expected to be largely increased the
present year-so as to include suffrage
and other incidentals.

A SIGN-BOARD.

1 will paint you sign, rum-sellers
And hang 1t above your door
A truer and better sign-board
Than ever you had before.
I will paint 1t with the skill of master
And many shall pause to see
This wonderful piece of painting,
So like the reality.
I will paint yourself, rum-se,ler,
AS you wait for that fair young boy,
Just in the morn of manhood,
A mothers pride and joy.
He has no thought of stopping,
But you greet him with a smile,
And you seem so blithe and-friendly
That he pauses to chat awhile.
I will paint you again, rum-seller,
l will paint you as you stand
With a foaming glass of liquor
Holding in either hand.
He Wavers, but you urge him:
"Drink pledge me just this one :"
And he lifts the glass and drains it,
And the hellish work is done.
And next will paint a drunkard;
Only year has flown,
But into this lOathsOme creature
The fair young boy has grown.
The work was quick and rapid;
l will paint him as he lies
In a torpid, drunken Slumber,
Under the wintry skies.
will paint the form of the mother
AS she kneelS at her darling's side
Her beautiful boy that was deaTer
Than all the world beside.
will paint the shape OF coffin
Labeled with one wOrd-'' Lost :"
will paint all this, rum-Seller,
1 will paint it free of cost.
The sin, and the shame, and sorrow,
The crime, and want, and woe,
That are born there in your rumshop,
No hand can paint, you know;
But I'll paint you sign, rum-seller,
And many shall pause to view
This wonderful swinging Sign-bOard,
So terribly, fearfully true.
