Children and fools tell the truth"

harm comes from using it at an oppor-
tune time. am the only and original
father of one of the class of children
who are loquacious and truthful in a
way that makes the parent heart bleed
sometimes. If this little incident did
not happen to make me its victim, l

not to make themselves or their chill
ren too conspicuously smart in print.
Guests were invited to dinner, and

mellow light of the chandelier and

A Montana View OF 1t.

We suppose Miss Mackay, by mar
riage to a prince. becomes a princess.
The one had wealth and the other a
title, neither of which they have ever
done anything to earn for themselves.
The marriage is trade in which both
are as likely to be cheated rs to make
winning. Wealth and title are both un-
satisfying to a sensible. well balanced
mind, and still more SO to a large, gen.
erous, hungry heart. We should have
thought more of Miss Mackay if she
had married some American of charac-
ter and ability. rather than one known
chiefly for his name. Or if she would
have married some poor young foreign
artist of tirst-rate ability we should
have thought her choice more sensible
and her future more likely to be happy.

The women of the city with q good
sprinkling of mem should crowd the audi
ance room of the Second PRESBYTERIAN
church, tonight, the occasion being the
first anniversary meeting Of the Spring
field McAll Association. This is an un-
denominational Society, employed in rails
ing funds for the support of the Springfield
Mission station in Paris. A few words of
explanation are in order. The evangelistic
work of this mission is among q class of
workingmen in the French metropolis, who
during the past quarter Of century, have
rejected the spiritual rule of the Jesuits
and who are, therefore, without any reH-
gion, whatever, and it is rather a remark
able fact that McAll went to work among
them at their request. Hence it will be
seen that the McAll workers are not prose-.
ly,ing the Catholics or acting in hostility
to them but doing gospel and benevolent
work among class of persons who very
much need it. and in very important To-
cality.

We take an especial degree Of pleasure
in contributing our need of praise to the
Columbus Dispatch's poet-and We do it
in good earnest, in honor Of a man whose
good work is gaining for him q well-de-
served fame throughout the country. His
name, We learn from the Dispatch, Of
Thursday, is Mr. Osman c. Hooper, and he
is authoritively announced in that issue as
the Associate Editor Of that paper The
occasion of the announcement is the fact
that Mr.. Hooper's fine tribute to Grant,
entitled 'The Dying Commander" which
first appeared in the Dispatch, has been
going the rounds of the press and has ap-
peared in many papers without credit. 1t
was printed in the Dispatch, March Sd,
1885, as follows:
GRANT, THE HERO, DYING.
What is this sad rumor flying?
Grant the sturdy soldier, dying?
Grant, the grim, yet glorious Mars,
Saviour of the stripes and stars
Grant, the warrior, dying:
Grant, whose cool. intrepid bearing
Stimulated deeds of daring
In the hottest of the field,
And whose cry WAS Never yield"-
Grant, unconquered, dying7
Grant, WHOSE many faults are hidden
Meath the cloak that weavss unpidden-
Royal robe of purple dye
In the loom of memory
Grant, the hero, dying?
All! tits worth Nations signing.
On Truths wings the rumor's flying.
Softly, friends, hero falls
When the unwelcoms angel calls,
Grant, at work, is dying.

How and When to Ship Produce.

The perishable produce which comes
to great markets, is as a rule carefully
handled by the railroad agents and their
employees. If properly packed, it gener
ally arrives without special harm from
transportation. In nine cases out of ten
II damaged, il is on account of imperfect
orchard. Roots should be packed solidly
in headed barrels, well ventilated, either
by augur holes in the sides, or by open
ings cut with a Ratchet, between the
slaves, to prevent heating Sweet pota-
toes of marketable size only, should be
shipped, great care being taken not to
bruise or break them. They must be
free from dirt dry, and should have un-
dergone the first heating in heaps, and
be well cooled off before packing. Irish
potatoes, to bring good prices must be
fair, of uniform size, clean, and should
likewise have had the preliminary sweat
and drying, before harreiing. Turnips
of all kinds need less careful treatment,
but cleanliness, and uniformity OF size
and appearance, ere essential to their
meeting quick sales at fair prices. Fruits
are, however more liable to danger than
other produce, and must be more care
fully handled by the shipper in every
way. 1t is not enough that they be care
fully picked. They must he put up i'll
packages TO suit the particular market to
which they are sent, and picked before
they are fully ripe. The commission
merchant to whom they are to be con
signed, should be consulted as to how
and when he wants them, and his direc-
tions should be implicitly followed, even
if he writes to keep them at home.

Decaying Fruit.

1t is grief to 60 through our great
fruit markets tc see the enormous waste
and think Of the disappointed shippers.
All over the country, people who send
fruit to New York or other markets, eX-
pect the top prices. They often get a bill
of expenses. Why? The fruit was pick
ed carelessly, bruised in the handling and
packing, and worse than all, great guam
titles picked too ripe. Thousands OF
crates and baskets of peaches and pears,
tens of thousands of crates Of tomatoes.
thousands of barrels of apples and melons
are thrown away every year, and this
year has been especially hard on fruit of
all sorts. The moist weather has forced
a succulent growth, which perhaps is the
reason for the rapid decay. The lesson
to be drawn from this state Of things is,
not ship fully ripe fruit; to pack with
great care, handling every article sepa-
rately, even though they may be appar-
emily hard. Time thus expended is
money saved. Do not uniustly blame the
commission merchant for what is yOur
own fault. 1t matters not, if year after
year you have shipped in the same man
ner and received good returns. In some
conditions OF the market anything that
is fruit will sell well. In times Of abun-
dance, the case is quite otherwise. The
prime article sells at fairly good price,
while Inferior goods barely pay expenses,
ana sometimes even net loss. Ameri-
can Agricuturist for October.
