PASSING STRANGE.

There has been division of the Mont
pelier Woman's Christian Temperance
Union and thus it is explained in the
Waterman by an officer Of the new or
ganization /:
please allow me few words OF ex-
PLANTATION Last week, when the officer
Of the new organization called Woman's
Christian Temperance Workers gave you
a few points, she was quite unaware that
there had been a reorganization OF the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union
in town. For several years there has
been a growing dissatisfaction with the
action of the State and National Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union in
leading the Unions into partisan posi-
ton which was originally not contem-
plated, and this fall it eliminated in our
Union. 1t determined to withdraw from
connection with the State and National
Unions and did 80 withdraw, and of
course was obliged to drop the union
from its title, recognizing under the
name OF 'Woman's Christian Temper
ance Workers. Soon afterward some of
the old members who wished still to be
auxiliary to the State Association, reor-
ganized Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union. There are two societies
alive and well to-day, with no Jealousy
or trouble between them, and room
enough for work-and cause enough for
work also. Any woman can choose with
which she prefers to work, or she can
work with both if she has strength
enough and is 80 inclined"
Thus although these two organizations
are, fortunately. working in harmony,
the strength that lies in union is lost, as
result of the action of the State and ma
tionsl leaders of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union in forcing the organ
ization into partisan position not ap
proved of by large part of its members,
possibly the larger part. 1t is a vain
Juggling with verbal forms to claim that
local Unions and individual members
are not bound in any way by the action
Of State and National Unions. The lat
ter are delegate bodies and the onus oil
their action falls on the whole member.
ship they represent. With all shades OF
political belief represented in that mem
bership it is just as fair to attempt tc
commit the organization to political
party as it would be to attempt to com
NIT 1t to religious denomination with
which large part of it's members are
not in sympathy.
1t is passing strange that women Of
the ability of Miss Willard and the othel
leaders of the Union do not ace that Il
cannot justly be made partisan organ
ization, nor have partisan ring grow
up within it, without impairing its grea
usefulness .-Bellotcs Falls Times.

Vermont, with population less than
New Hampshire, has nearly so, 600 more
of her natives living in other States than
has New Hampshire I; and yet New
Hampshire stands next to Vermont IN
the per cent. of natives of the State
which she has living in other States.
The natives of Vermont in other States
are 81 per cent. of her population. The
natives of New Hampshire in other
States are 81 per cent. of her population.
and no other State except Vermont has
so large proportion away. The native
non-residents of every State not in the
above table are less than 81 per cent. OF
its population. Vermont has only 81 per
cent. of the State at home : New Hamp
shire has 65 per cent, and after these
two every other State has more than
70 per cent. These figures show what
is the matter with Vermont. 1t is an ar
tifcial condition of things, which may
be remedied by an effort in the right di-
rection. Our custom of sending, to an
unreasonable extent, men and money
out of the State should be discouraged.
immigration should be invited. There
is no good reason why immigration into
this State should not largely exceed the
migration from it. An influx ofpopula-
ton seeking homes in Vermont one-half
as large as the number of Vermonters
now living in other States would create
a sharp demand for farms and increase
the value of real estate millions of dol
lars. The condition of agriculture in
Vermont and her position among the
States as to population is peculiar, first,
it stands near the head of all the States
in the value of its agricultural products
measured by the number engaged in
producing them. Second, it has lost %
per cent. more than any other State by
emigration. Third, it stands at the foot
of all the States in increase of popula-
tinn

VERMONT AMONG THE STATES.

No writer has discussed more fairly,
or ably, the situation of the farming in
terests in this State than M. o. Howe,
the agricultural editor of the Brattleboro
Phenir. In the following extract he
presents facts which ought to be better
and more generally understood. AS an
immigrant to Vermont, quite familiar
with other sections of the Union, we
have always wondered why SO many
Vermonters emigrate. We wish our
native-born readers would try to ex-
plain the singular fact. oo,ooo

HOW TO REPAIR PARASOLS AND
UMBRELLAS.

The majority of women have stored
away in some neglected corner one or
more dilapidated parasols. II these su-
perannuated relics are sent to the manu-
facturers to be recovered they will cost
as much as an new one. To recover
them at home ia a simple matter and can
be performed by any one with average
ability. The first step is to measure the
parasol to find out the quantity Of mater
ial required. To ascertain this measure
the lowest and largest part, taking half
the given height, with half of one of the
quarters for the amount required. SUP
posing that your parasol measures three
full yards around, the silk needed will
be half that quantity, or one and a half
yards; adding half Of one OF the pieces,
about one and three quarters. Having
obtained the length, measure through the
center for one of the sections, that is
from top to bottom, and the number OF
inches give the required width,
Remove the cover carefully, so as not
to draw it out OF shape, for much de-
ponds upon this. Rip the sections apart,
Select the best one for pattern, and cut
from the material as many pieces as are
required. The pieces must be laid hori.
zontally upon the goods, the broadcast
part at the selvage, alternating from
side to side in order to economic the
material. Lay narrow hem across the
selvage before they are basted together.
Sew the seams up on the right side a.
narrowly as possible-just the meresl
holding of the goods. Turn on The
wrong side, and haste as closely and
evenly as possible, then stitch again al
lowing almost a quarter Of an inch fol
the seam. When all are finished, draw
needle and stout cotton through each
seam q trifle below the top, and draw
tightly together. Cut circle Of silk siz
inches in diameter, make small hole in
the center and place the upper part Of
frame. With the cover still on the
wrong side, put the sticks through the
small opening and draw tightly together
wind the cotton round the small groove
several times, which is al the top Of the
parasol. Turn the cover over on the
right side, and fasten to the small HOES
designed for the purpose. Sew each
seam 10 the ribs in two other places, IL
avoid slipping, which finishes the re-
covering. -GOOd housekeeping,

THE CANAL OF JOSEPH.

How many Of the engineering works
OF the nineteenth century will there be
In existence in the year 60002 Very few,
we fear, and still less those that will
continue in the far-of age to serve a
useful purpose. Yet there lie at least one
great undertaking conceived and exc
cuted by on engineer, which during the
space of 1000 years has never ceased its
office, on which the life of fertile pro
vince absolutely depends to day. We
refer to the Bahr Joussuf-the canal Of
Joseph-built, according to tradition,
by the son of Jacob, and which consti
tutes not the least Of the many blessings
he conferred on Egypt during the years
Of his prosperous rule. This canal took
its rise from the Nile at Asiut and ran
nearly parallel with il for $50 miles,
creeping along under the western cliffs
Of the Nile valley, with many a bend
and winding, until at length it gained
an eminence, as compared with the
river bed, which enabled it to turn west
ward through narrow pass and enter
district which was otherwise shut off
from the fertilizing floods on which all
vegetation in Egypt depends. The
northern end stood seventeen feet high
end it was at an equal elevation with the
river. Through this cut ran perennial
Esrream, which watered province
named the Fayoun, endowing it with
fertility and supporting large popula-
ton.
In the time of the annual flood great
part of the canal was under water, and
then the rivers current would rush in
more direct course into the pass, carry
ing with it the rich silt which takes the
place of manure and keeps the soil in a
state of constant productiveness. And
this, with the exception of the tradition
that Joseph built it, can be verified to-
day, and it is not mere supposition or
rumor. Until eight years ago it was
firmly believed that the design has al
ways been limited to an irrigation
scheme larger, no doubt, than that now
in operation, as shown by the traces of
abandoned canals, and by the slow ag-
gregatiOn of waste water which had &C
cumulated in the Birket ell Quorum, but
still essentially the same in character.
Many accounts have been written by
Greek and Roman historians, such as
HerodUtus, Strabo, MuIianus and Pliny,
and repeated in monkish legends or por-
trayed on the maps of the middle ages,
which agreed with the folk lore of the
district. These tales explained that the
canal dug by the ancient Israelites
served to carry the surplus wafer Of the
Nile into an extensive lake lying south
of the Fayoun, and 80 large that it no
only modified the climate, tempering the
arid winds of the desert, and converting
them into the balmy airs which nour-
ished the vines and the olives into full
ness and fragrance unknown in any part
of the country, but also added to the
food supply of the land such immense
quantities of fish that the royal preroga-
tive of the right of piscary at the great
weir was valued at $250,000 annually.
This lake was said to be $50 miles round,
and to be navigated by fleet of vessels
while the whole circumference was the
scene of industry and prosperity.-En
