We have discovered the secret of how
the weather prophets are able to tell Sc
much about the weather. We wrote ii
with our little scissors from the State
Register. Here tits:
"Nostradamus in the AlD,anach Pro
phetique pour 1882, Paris, says that
when the year commences on Sunday
the winter will be mild and pleasant,
the springs windy, the summer cold
and dry with occasional thunder storm,
and bad weather generally. The
autumn will be fine, but more than or
dlnarily wet. Cattle and sheep will be
scarce and will command a good price
Honey will be abundant. Among the
aged and renowned people there will
de great mortality. Fruit and gram
will be rather plenty and command
moderate prices. Taken all IN all. the
year will be a good one. Reflection
will satisfy the reader that these pre-
dictions thus far have been IN the main
fulfilled"

Advantages of Women Clerks.

There are many advantages in women
clerks. They are found to be punctual
and docile. Their good conduct and de-
corum after Office hours insure a steady
attendance not broken in upon by Derby
headaches or the drowsiness that follows
nocturnal dissipation. They have not
that genius for getting into debt which is
an indication of superiority displayed by
their male colleagues. 1t Is also worthy
of note that the sluggishness Of promo
ton, which is one of all official careers
where men are concerned. 10 got rid of In
the case of women. No matter how
closely they may restrict themselvs to
their work from ten to four, the clever,
clear-headed, vigorous young girls who
are Government clerks are ready enough
for society in the evening. They enter
it with freshness of feeling, because they
have honestly earned relaxation, and the
fact that they are peeuniarily independent
enables them to meet men frankly and on
equal terms Their very success in ex-
animation and in Office life implies their
quickness, brightness, and good health,
and these are the qualifications that tell
in sweetheart and wife as we'll as In
post office clerk, The result is that they
get married off with reasonable celebrity,
and thus the official field Is kept clear by
the wedding out of brides, who relinquish
red tape for range-blossoms, new girls
coming to take their places. "-London

Surprise and Presentation

Surprise and Presentation.
There was surprise party and pre-
sentation at Ames Brothers Diamond
Feed Mill Works last Friday evening,
Aug. 10th. The employees, for some
time past. have been contemplating
making their employers suitable present.
The wives of the men employed having
got wind of what was going on, made up
their minds to take q hand in the affair,
and to make surprise" of it. Accord
ingly, on the evening selected for the
affair, shortly after the whistle blew, the
ladies made their appearance at the shop,
with baskets well filed. Under their
direction, room was soon cleared, and
tables erected. which were soon grooming
under load of good things. After a
few explanatory remarks, two ladies adj
vanced, bearing in their hands two cakes,
which were presented to the Ames Broth
ers, accompanied by few appropriate
remarks by Mrs. H. A. Dearborn in behalf
of the ladies; after which Will Witham
followed with few words in behalf OF
the shop boys. The cakes were crowned
with representation of u diamond and
the initials of the Ames Brothers cut
therein. In each cake was a gold Dia-
mond Feed Mill watch charm, the exact
image (only reduced in size) of the Feed
Mill manufactured by the Ames Brothers.
After the cakes were broken, and the
contents exposed to view, Mr.. David
Ames responded for the firm in short
and feeling speech. The design for the
cakes was very appropriate, the initial
standing for the name of the firm, the
Diamond for their trade mark, the charm
inside of the cake for the mill, the
whole intending to represent canes
Brothers Diamond Feed MILL" The
Ames Boys, although aware that they
had large family under their charge,
were surprised, as was every one present,
at their number, for there were good
round hundred who sat down to supper
all belonging to the families of the men
in the employ of the factory.
After supper, the younger portion of
those present, to settle their suppers, ad-
journed to the house of j. T. Summers,
where they passed few hours in So
cial dance.
The watch charms were models of beau
ty and workmanship. and were made to
order by Chas. E. Sheldon, who is jew
eler of Red Wing. and also member of
the firm of Mclaughlin, Sheldon & Co.,
general agents for the sale of the mills
for the u. s.
The affair throughout was a complete
success, and all who took part voted
it a happy and enjoyable occasion.
