We are in receipt of letter, circu-
lars and price list through Bro. A. Z,
Dickinson, from Bro. Geo. M. Jack
son of Ft. Jefferson, Kentucky. Bro.
Jackson, finding it impossible for the
Alliance and Wheel to make satisfec-
tory contracts with manufacturers OF
wagons and agricultural implements,
has embarked in the manufacture OF
some of these articles himself with
the determination to supply members
Of the Order with first class goods at
fair prices. He realizes the magni-
tude Of the opposition he will be COM
pelled to meet, and he is making a
tremendous venture with no other
guarantee Of success than his conf
dence in the stability Of the Order and
his faith that the brotherhood will
sustain him with their patronage. He
offers his manufactures which are
warranted in every respect equal to
the best, at greatly reduced prices. 1t
is to be expected that other manufac-
turers will meet these prices and go
below them, and even below the cost
OF production in order to dispose Of a
dangerous competitor, The county
business agent Of Jefferson county
should be supplied with means to
handle a car loal OF these goods, and

thon the standard be sets up by

many men who seem 10 have no con
ception that others can in the
least degree differ from them in Opin-
ION, politically'or otherwise, and still
possess the ordinary sense Of mortals,
or be entitled to any rights that NOR

forcibly reminded Of this fact by the
tone Of q brief epistle from this place

writer Of that very interesting article
imprinted his car marks 80 unmistak-
ably upon every line and sentence
that we know precisely to whom we
refer in the brief mention which we
shall make oft. It is characteristic
OF the author from beginning to end.
His own immaculate Judgment is the
standard by which he assumes to
measure every other man; and woe be
10 him who has the presumption to
think otherwise than as he thinks.
Whoever does this is q ''cranR or o

or consideration, This is the spirit
that prompted every Ubiquitous per-
secution since the world began; and
the intolerance Of which would to-
day re-establish the rack and the
guilotine il it could command the
power. The man who is not manu-
factured on a gauge broad enough to
Concede to every intelligent being the
same rights which he claims for him

differ with him nm equal title to re-

possessed Of little capacity and less
honesty. He is usually unscrupulous

zoe this ox0mplifed both in history
and In our individual intercourse with

purposes as alone worthy Of success,
will not usually scruplo as TO che

The young man bowed, looked at her
a moment and then replied frankly:
Madam, l quite appreciate your mo-
tives and entirely forgive you. am

1t was the custom in we'll arranged
houses at that day to send the guests to
their room while before dinner.
Accordingly, Miss Seabright ordered a
servant to show Mr.. Harrington to an
apartment on the upper floor and retired
to her own room to dress for dinner.
Ten minutes after her entrance into
this apartment the servant brought her
a large bundle and a small note-a few
inches square She opened the note first
and read these words:

bikes at Kansas City.

The twin Kansas Citys are about to
undertake a task which, if successful,
will add s22, 100000 to their available
wealth in fertile soil. This is the re-
claiming from the swamps of over 600
acres of land at the mouth of the Kaw
river. OF the lands, $50 acres are in
Kansas City, Kan, and 100 acres in Kan
sas City, Mo. The plan of operation will
he to build heavy dikes to protect the
lands from overflow. 1t is thought that
the work will be finished and the lands
ready for occupany in two years. The
reclaimed acres will be specially in de-
mand for railway terminal facilities. The
undertaking is great one, and the prog
ress of the dixie building will be watched
with interest throughout the country.
The only difficulty in the way at present
seems to be the warning between two
rival companies who desire concessions
from the double cities.

a Foolish Toad.

The other day as I lay in my hammock
1 saw huge toad winking and blinking
lazily under the large leaf of foliage
plant. He looked contented and happy,
and just as if he didn't care whether
school kept or not. A humble bee came
buzzing around the flowers. That toad
opened his eyes, looked around, deliber-
ately winked one eye at me, and then to
all appearances went to sleep again. He
was not asleep, however, for the next
moment, when the adventurous bee
came trife nearer, he made a little
spring, opened his countenance till
thought he would actually drop in two,
there was red fiash-and the bee had
disappeared. l was just beginning to
wonder where it had gone, when l OBJ
served the toad begin to look melancholy.
then noticed that his white vest was
pulled out like an alderman's. In less
time than it takes to tell 1t he was the
most lonesome looking toad ever saw.
He seemed to reflect minute, and
then he got into the attitude in which
the old prints represent Nebuchadnezzar
when he was out to pasture. His big
mouth was close to the ground, while
his hind feet stood on tiptoe. He had
swallowed something hot and was now
going to get rid of it by reversing the
process. After several violent efforts,
during which his whole anatomy heaved
with emotion, the troublesome Jonah
was elected and lay on the grass before
him. The toad wasn't winking at me
any more. Instead he was venting looks
of revengeful spite at the unfortunate
author of all his troubles, which by this
time presented sorry appearance. Soon
he cautiously approached and with a
lightning like movement the bee again
disappeared, this time to stay. For a.
moment the toad moved cautiously, as
if to avoid stirring up again that burning
fire beneath his vest, and then seeing
that it was all right hoped back with
an elated air and went to sleep under the
leaf.-Sypacuse Journal.

DR.. Hammond cautions physicians on
the careless use of Brown-Sequard's
elixir or they may kill more than they
cure. In very short time it turns
putrid, and then if used, would cause
death from blood poisoning. Within
half an hours time after the lamb has
been killed the fluid should be injected
into the patients veins. The water en-
ployed in the solution must be distilled
and the whole mixture must be free
from microbes. The mortar in which
the components are reduced, as well as
the hypodermic syringe, must be care
fully cleansed with carbolic acid and dis
titled water before using. The fact that
it is necessary to prepare the elixir fresh
every time will prevent any patent
medicine quack from utilizing this dis
covery if there is anything in it.
