Practical truth in practical way by a
practical man was fully demonstrated in
Masteller's Grove, Madison township, this
county on Thursday afternoon, June 10TH,
by the worthy lecturer of the National
Grange, Mortimer Whitehead.
A. p. Young, of Millville called the as
sembly to order and proceeded to the elec.
ton Of a chairman and secretary. @. w.
Suplee of Bloomsbury was chosen chair
man. The worthy lecturer was then intro
duced to an audience numbering one hun
dred and fifty persons. For two hours
and twenty minutes the'audience listened
with undivided attention to facts of the
grayest importance to farmers. Indeed we
never saw such attention. Ears, eyes,
and mouths were all open in astonishment
as truth tinged with humor fell from the
lips Of the speaker. Peals Of thunder in
the western sky and indications of shower
did not disturb the interest, while on al
most any other occasion there would have
been a general commotion. No shower
came, however, and the afternoon was
fine one. The lecture was highly instruc-
tive as well as interesting. We beg space
for few sentences uttered by the speaker
The following are some: "Some men
would have the farmer a man of muscle,
depending on other mems brains.
Farmers pay So per cent OF the taxes in
the United States.
Monopolies are getting the burden of
taxes off of their shoulders and putting it
on the farmer.
The farmers Of our country ought to be
educated men.
The hope of the farmer is in organiza-
tion."
In conclusion Mr.. Whitehead requested
his hearers to weigh his talk and urged all
farmers to join ranks with the Grange as
the best and only farmers organization
now working for their welfare. E. NJ
Tewksbury, OF Catawissa being present,
was called upon and gave a few timely re-
marks endorsing Mr.. Whitehead's treat.
ment Of candidates, which is to exact
written promises of them and take them
before the Justice of the Peace and have
them sworn. Mr.. Tewksbury would add
the contents of double-barreled shot gun
as third antidote. So fellow citizens load
your guns for he will be around soon.
After lifting collection amounting to
over seven dollars, to defray part of travel
ing expenses of the speaker, and singing
that good old granger song "Work for the
night is coming" and the usual hand shak-
ing, the audience returned to their homes
feeling that it was good for them to have
been there.

The ladies of the Senior class having
gone safely through the hands of the Ex-
amining committee, are now busily engag-
ed with the dress-makers getting ready
their graduating costumes. We are not in-
formed as TO the style of dresses to be
worn, but presume they will be of an ex-
pensive kind, as usual. 1t is matter OF
regret that the good example set by u
graduating class several years ago has not
been followed The ladies wore dresses OF
inexpensive material and in comforting the
degrees the President OF the Board OF
Trustees complimented them highly upon
their neat appearance, and for their cour-
age in departing from the long established
custom of graduating in extrayagant dress.
1t is always burden upon the members OF
the class of limited means, and yet they
are compelled by pride to procure dresses
that are as handsome as those OF their
more wealthy classmates. If the matter
can be controlled in no other way the
Faculty should take 1t in hand, and make
a rule regulating the maximum cost OF
graduating dresses.

Sore Ewes

The eyes are always in sympathy with
the body, and afford an excellent index
of its condition. When the eyes become
weak, and the lids inhamed and sore, it
is an evidence that the system has
become disordered by Scrofula, for
which Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best
known remedy.
Scrofula, which produced painful in
iiammation in my eyes, caused me much
suffering for a number of years. BY the
advice of a physician commenced taking
