FROM FISH CREEK.

EDITOR HusBANDMAN:
Having a few leisure, moments to- scrib-
BILE a few lines, | thought would address
them to you. There was quite a rain and
y hail storm here net long since, which, to-
gether with the grasshoppers, have pretty
!, near destroyed all of the garden stuff, but
the grain is not hurt, and field crops are
i looking pretty well. i"
The grange meets regularly every, two
weeks. There must be something very fas-
J. chatting about the grange, the members be-
ing SO eager to 60. Always when grange
day comes there is a rush to get of, but
they are sure not to take us little folks
along. don't think it is fair that we. can't
go and have a good. time, too. ,
: Our people had a. big picnic on the
Fourth, which, like everything else they
undertake. was a success. MONTANA.

DROPPED FROM THE ROLLS FOR NON
PAYMENT OF DUES.

A peculiar feature of grange usage is the
act of a subordinate grange known as 'drop-
ping from the ROLL" This IS not the pun
ishment usually known as suspension, nor
Is it expulsion, and yet; it maybe considered
either or both. 1t differs from suspension in
this: A member suspended can be restored
only by the act of the grange s%uspending
him. Should he be ..dropped from the
rolls he can reinstate himself at any time
by coming forward and paying up his dues
that had accrued before and after the act of
dropping from the rolls. 1t is similar to
suspension because until he reinstates him
self he is debarred all privileges of the order
and all utilization as q member. 1t differs
from, expulsion because the delinquent may
reinstate himself, but it is expulsion or in
definite suspension if the individual chooses
SO TO make it.
While it would perhaps be best that each
subordinate grange should adopt a law de-
clarsng what shall constitute delinquency in
the payment Of dues, and providing for no
tees TO be given d%elinqVents, yet it is deem
cu suliciell1 duelloIity w sNls1C tHIS punish
ment upon all who do not comply with the
general law that each member shall pay
regular dues into the treasury of his or her
subordinate grange.
Oranges that have promptly and thor
oughly applied this remedy tor delinquency
have, as a general rule, enjoyed a greater
degree of prosperity than others that carry
SO much dead weight. -Souths1n Husband

IF farmers think they have ~ rights,
and deem them worthy Of preservation,
they must devise some plan tor acting in
concert, tor individually they are helpless
against organized bodies whose interests
conflict. Farmers elhbs are excellent insti-
buttons so far as they go, but these are ne
cessarily limited in their action, as there is
no bond OF union to cement them into a for
midable or efficient working body.-Er.

she draws the front hair over his eyes
and leaves 1t there while she cuts that

She has unconsciously continued to push
his head forward until his nose presses

snuilling sound that is becoming alarm

seized with an irresistible desire to blow
his nosc and recollects that his handker-
chief is in the other room, Then fly
lights on his nose, and does it so uncx.
pectedIy that he invouutarily lodges
and catches the points of the shears in his
left ear. At this point he commences to
cry and wish he WAS man. But his
mother doesn't notice it. She merely hits
him on the ear to inspire him with con.
tidence. When she is through she holds
his jacket collar back from his neck and
with her mouth blows the short bits from
the top of his head down his back. He
calls her attention to this fact, but she
looks for new place on his head and
hits him there. Then he takes his awful

looks at it, and, young as he is, shudders
as he thinks what the boys will say.

An Extraordinary Case.

! An exceedingly remarkable surgical
| operation has recently been performed ~
/ 81 Ct,hcrinc's Hospital. Williamsburg.
On Friday, Aug. 3, 1916, while Dora
Conrad, OF No. $40 Mangin street, was at
tending u Jenny in Watcrbnrys bag iac-
tory, in Bushwick, her hair, which wa,
hanging loose, caught IN 0ue ol
! the spindlcs, and ia IN instant the
hair and the scalp on one side ot her
head were torn out. 1t was done SO
quickly that she felt only tug, The
oycrsccr took her to st. GATHERINGS Hos
pItal, On Blshwick avenue, where the
doctors said they could do nothing for
her. Two days after the physician in
charge said, IL can save her, and II she
Cau stand the operation, ! can give her a
new scalp 10y transplantaton.'
The operation of transportation of
skin is an exceedingly delicate one, and
has been but recently introduced into
surgery as remedy in cases OF open
wounds. The ghastly injury inflicted on
Miss Conrad not only tore oil the scalp,
but destroyed aFortion of the periosteum.
No hopes were at first entertained for her
recovery; but as the days wore on her
naturally good constitution enabled ran
uIation to begin, and flesh began to form.
Taking advantage of this the doctor took
two pieces of Dora's own arm, and cut
ting them in small pieces, grated them
on the periosteum, about a quarter OF an
inch apart, and in row about n quarter
of an inch from the line of the lower edge
of the wound, holding them in position
with small strips Of plaster. In a few
days minute ramlfications extended from
these little gratis to each other and to
the sound skin, which gradually increased
until they bridged over the space between
them, and new skin was thus produced.
This operation was carefully repeated
during the seven months the girl lay in
the hospital, the gratis for the purpose
being freely furnished by Sister Dolorosa
from her arms. Sister Joanna, another of
the faithful nurses in the institution, also
furnished material for gratis during the
operation. The doctor was so skilltul 10
his manipulations that every piece of skin
grated took root, and the entire skull
was again covered with firm healthy,
but hairless scalp. There are spots be-
reft of feeling; they are those connected
directly with the skull, the periosteum
having been destroyed just there. There
was danger of the upper table of the skull
dying in these places, but, fortunately,
the oil dressing prevented that.
The case excites much interest among

Life in Mississippi.

Married, at 3 PM, on Thursday last,
at the residence of Rev. Harry West,
colored, opposite the depot in Cotfeeville,
by the Rev. Harry West, Mr.. D1kes,
white, to Miss ----, negro (name of the
dusky bride not known, all from Lafay-
ette county, Miss. We understand that
this marriage extraordinary created no
little excitement in the usually quiet
town of Coteeyille. About Z o'clock
the same evening the happy couple
reached our town on freight train, en-
route for their home. 1t was soon re-
ported up and down our streets that a
white man with negro wife was ON
the freight train just up Some Of the
young men Of our town, as we learn,
Immediately determined to treat the new
groom to a new suit of tar and feathers,
MS a marriage present. He was on top
the caboose, but some of the smaller
boys were ahead of them and were pclt-
ing him with brickbats. lie took refuge
in the CaboOse and closed the doors
securely. The train soon pulled out,
and thus he missed his merited suit. We
understand that he says his name is
boxes aud that he lives about six miles
from Tayor's depot in Lafayette county,
Miss. We are no advocate of lynch law,
but under the circumstances do not think
coat of tar aud feathers would have
been amiss. Such an outrage upon
moral law should not be tolerated and

THE BRIGHT SIDE.--Look on the
bright side. 1t is the right side, The
times may be hard, but it will make them
no easier to wear gloomy and sad coun-
tenance. 1t is the sunshine and not the
cloud that gives beauty TO the flower.
There is always before or around us that
which should cheer and ill the heart
with warmth and gladness. The sky is
blue ten times where it is black once.
You have troubles, it may be. So have
others. None are free from them; and
perhaps it Is as well that none should be.
They give sinew and tone to life, iorti-
tude and courage to man. That would be
dull sea, and the sailor would never &C.
quire skill, whcro there is nothing to
disturb its surface. 1t is the duty OK
every one to extract all the happiness
and enjoyment he can within and with
out him; and above all, he should look
on the bright side. What though things
do look little 'darkS The lane will
turn, and the night will end in u broad
day. In the long run the great balance
rights itself. What appears i'll becomes
well-that which appears wrong, right
Men are not made to hang down their
heads or lips, aud those who do only
show that they are departing from the
path of true common sense and right
There is more virtue in one sunbeam
than in whole hemisphere of clouds
and gloom. Therefore, we repeat, look
on the bright side. Cultivate all that IS
warm and genial--not the cold and repul
sive, the dark and morose.- Interior.

vex, and the four supports were like legs.

it went straddling along like a living

BoNEs.-Thc value of bones imported
annually into England to be used for fer
tiIizing the land is computed to be $l0,-
100000. They are obtained from Russia,
Germany, South America and the United

are collected from every possible source
of supply. So valuable are bones con-

NATIoK, Il. l., is much excited over
the death, from hydrophobia, of John
Brown, twenty-one years old, amil work
man. The first symptoms of the disease
were noticed Friday noon, 1st inst, when
he became faint at the sight of some wa
ter, but nothing was thought of it until
Saturday morning, when he rose as usual
to 60 to his work, but could eat no break
fast complaining to his mother of Sc
we're swelling in his throat. Howeve9, he
went to the mill, but on Saturday after
noon, when he went to get some water,
and was about to put a e lass to his mouth,
he uttered loud scream and fell uncon-
scous to the floor. He soon recovered
and remained in the mill until noon. In
the evening" when the family we're seated
ut the supper table, he went into an adj
joining room to obtain some water, and
was about to taste it, when he screamed
and ran into back yard to an old barn,
where he was caught and returned to the
house. During the night he suffered in
tense agony, it requiring the united
strength of four men to hold him. Ply
sicians were summoned, and on seeing
that there was no hope for him, admins
tered the usual medicines given to quiet
the victim. He fingered until Sunday
morning, the 81, when death came to his
relief Mr.. Brown was bitten in the leg
by small dog about eight months ago,
on the road near NatiCk, but nothing
was thought of it at the time.

On one occasion n captain and IL LIEUTENANT
were brought to Osman, charged win
cowardice in the presence of the enemy
The captain was head taller than Osman'
and very strongly built. Both culprits
stood before tie general, in an humble
attitude, with thcir heads bent. OSman
spoke to then at first in low, grave
tone, and then sprang suddenly upon the
lieutenant, lifted him into the air with
his left hard, struck him repeatedly with
his right Ast on the head and chest, and
then dashed him to the ground. He turned
next tothe captain and administered
similar thrashing. For all this he was
great favorite among his soldiers, VINO
would kiss his portrait devoutly, and
even utter his name with reverence.
