Again, one of the resolutions calls Messrs.
Coleman and Wood corrupt officials" If
the writer will point out wherein they are
corrupt, we shall take leading part in de-

fore us is not whether the Alliance and
w heel ought in justice to be denied the use
of the public school houses, but whether
they can legally use them, and whether the
Superintendent and Attorney General have
good grounds in law for the opinions given.
We say that as honest officials they could
no have decided otherwise. and that to call
| them "known enemies of the order," and
corrupt" without other cause than these
decisions, is unworthy the organizations in
terested. The Farmers Alliance certainly
does not desire officials to administer the
law in such manner as to gain "votes," re-
gardless of the requirements of the statutes.

The Man About Town was on an outing
in the country a few weeks ago. He put
up with a hard working, honest old farm
err a happy representative of the yeo-
many of the land: whose members are too
greatly drained to fill the pushing, rushing
centres Of trade. Thoroughly honest and
straightforward in all his Intercourse with
his fellow man, it would be presumed that
the old farmer would, by reason of his own
integrity, be not quick TO suspect others.
Neither is he, and he makes no exception
even with ''town people," One evening,
after he had made his usual weekly visit to
town, whittier he went TO sell his produces
and to purchase his household wants, upon
Counting up" he discovered that the store
keeper had given him credit twice for the
same lot of butter. 81 must straighten
that up when l go to Ironton next time;
MI. hos cheated himself.'' "You
won't do any such thing" said feminine
member of the family: "them town people
always look out for number one, and if you
got the better of them once, it'll help to
offse. what they've been making off of u.s."
The old man, however, was stubborn in
the right, and read the snail assemblage a
moral lecture it would have done your soul
good to hear. But how many of people in
the country do have the prejudice against US
jewellers in town. that we are all swindiers
and ever on the lookout for honest farmers
to yictImize. How unfounded the prejudice,
and how unreasonable! And how totally
unsupported by the facts! Beside, takei
it is well for the town-people that the farmer
rs rule is thoroughly honest; for, let me
tell you, III a business transaction he is not
easily OkerGOme.

clare and L have no reason to doubt their
assertions. "It's an off year, anyway, and
what do we care about these state elections?'
is the manner in which they refer to the
landslide of last Tuesday. It's an "off year"

they all wore mighty long faces as they

L mean to question the yeracity of the

LESSON SURROUNDINGS.

The lest lesson narrated the incident
that occurred on the way to the house
of Jairus. The raising of the daughter
of the ruler follows, according to all
three accounts Matt. 9: 1896; Mark
5: 35-43; Luke S 1866; that Of Mark
being most detailed and yivacloIs, pro-
badly owing to the fact that be derived
his knowledge from Peter, one of the
three disciples present on that occasion.
In Matthew 8 81 81, two miracles are
recorded in immediate connection WITH
the raising Of the rulers daughter; but
no other events in the narratives seem
to have INTERVIEWED before the second
rejection at Nazareth, with which the
present lesson begins.
The place Of the first of the lesson
Tvs. 1-6) was Nazareth; of the latter
half Tvs. 6-13), the neighboring parts of
Galilee. The apostles probably trayers
ed the entire district.
The time of the former half may have
been shortly after the last lesson; but
the length Of the preaching tour of the
apostles is unknown. 1t ended, how
ever, very shortly before passover
tthe third), which followed the feeding
of the five thousand. Hence the date
was the early part of the year of Rome
1872, A. d. 80, probably during the
months of February and March.
Parallel passages: Matt. 13: 51-5S;
8: 50 to IL /; Luke 9: 1-6.

New Fads in Mems Dresses.

If predictions are to be fulfilled, the
women of society will have to look to
their laurels the season just about to he
inaugurated. The fashionable men are
showing an alarming tendency towards
discarding conventional costumes and
adopting styles that are picturesque, TO
say the least. We had forecast Of
the unusual splendor during the past
summer, when ''gilded youths" saunt-
cred about the summer hotel porcheS,
their pr rIstine flannel suits relieved with
broad Roman sashes, or wide metal
belts and now it is prophesied that the
midWinter will herald styles yet more
gorgeous. Some Of the most courage
Gus innovators give credence to the
rumors by permitting their enterpriSing
tailors to use their names zen evidence"
as the French say; that our representa-
tive society men, few OF them, Will
actually wear the Oriental sash, minus
the waistcoat, this winter for fun dress.
Now these same sashes are wide. OF

First Experience in Sleeping Car.

Going down the great Jackson route
from Grenada, Miss, regular home
spun native Of the State entered the
sleeping car and paid for a berth. He
had never been inside of car of the
kind and everything astonished him.
When the porter came to make up the
beds saw that the native was greatly
perplexed, but as he made no direct ap-
peal it wasn't my duty to post him. He
was the first one to make preparations
for bed. He glanced anxiously around,
pulled off one boot and then took a
rest for five minutes. When the other
boot came off he had solved the prob
lem. Pushing his boots under the oertn
he started for the rear platform and
nothing was heard from him for about
ten minutes. Then he put his head
into the door and called out:
IAN you uns in thar, look out, for

And come he did. He had disrobed|

Heat Versus Food.

"Why do you keep it so blazing hot?"
inquired a patron OF the proprietor re-
Gently as he entered a restaurant. "Be-
cause it is cold outside" replied the
proprietor. After the patron had left
the premises the restaurant proprietor
confdilgly made the following confess
sion to a newspaper man: You see,
I've been in this business for = quarter
of Il century, and my experience has
taught me that under ordinary circum-
stances men devour more food at a
single meal in piercing cold weather
than when the outside temperature is
moderate. When l first embarked in
the eating house business was green
enough to economiZe in wood for heat
ing the premises, imagining was there
by saving money, but soon discovered
my mistake, as the patrons of my res
taurant devoured such inordinate
quantities Of food in winter that bank
ruptcy stared me in the face. 1t was
here learned lesson from cook, and
through which l have since acquired a
snug fortune. My cook ate barely
enough to sustain life in canary bird,
and / inquired the cause of his lack of
appetite. He replied that it was due to
his being constantly employed about
hot fire, and remarked that if 1 would
keep my restaurant red hot in winter
my boarders would not consume one
half the amount of food. tried the
experiment, and soon found that where
as had heretofore saved probably $40
a month in ruel by half freezing my
boarders, that l was saving at least
twenty cents a meal in the decrease in
the amount of food each one consumed
while the premises were kept red hot"
