What Will the March Convention DO

What Will the March Convention Do3
Mr.. EDITOR: What will the March
convention do2 Will it carry out the
purpose for which it was called-the
nomination of q State ticket from Gov
ernor down2 Will it content itself with
promulgating platform and name no
tickeR Will it nominate a Governor
and Lieutenant, Governor only, leaving
tho rest of the ticket blank2 If nomi
nations are made, who will be nominat-
ed9 These are some of the questions
which are appealing to tho people. The
last is of special interest to tho politi-
clans, and the uncertainty of its answer
is narrowing to divers political ambi
tions. In fact, If the signs fail not, this
is bad spell of weather for the politi-
clans to be out. Nobody knows, of
course, what the March convention will
| do. The advocates of nomination are
confident will itnominate. Those who op-
pose nomination figure out that the con.
vention will decide not to name ticket.
In few days we shall know which is
right. We are told on tho one hand
that If the convention nominates q tick
ct, the farmers movement will be wreck
ed, our state Democracy endangered
and the ticket defeated. On the other
mana we are sure that to nominate n
ticket now, is to solidify and secure suc.
cess of the farmers movement The
gentlemen who advance these divergent
opinions arc equally honest. and have
the interest of the farmer at heart. While

Once was heard minstrel singing,
All the air around was ringing
With the sweetness Of his song
Sang he loud Of fame and glory,
Sang of battles fierce and CORY;
But none listened of the throng
That Went crowding by.
II
Then tale Of love he chanted,
of castle, old and haunted,
OF a maiden wOndrous fair.
Rescued from dire peril there
BY Il knight Of noble bearing;
But the people little caring
Passed, nor raised all eye.
III
Then once more. with words so thrilling
Sang he, all the tumult stillinr,
HurryiNg footsteps fingered near,
All were eager now to hear,
For his theme reached Door and wealthy
Charmed alike the sick and healthy
Gave an impulse rev.

For he sang, "Oh hear We, Mothers.

"Iou can bargains find
'Suitcd to each mind
Drugs to help the worst diseases,
''Medicines that cures and plcascs. -
(And his words were truc.)
V
Seeds that sprout as soon as planted,
also paints and ills when wanted,
'Glass to make your houses lighter
'And your tircside seem the brighter"
Soon the minstrel stood alone,
All to Sloan's for bargains gone,
And his work was done.
'By bargains is not meant goods at less
than value, but pure uradulturatc cd articles.

The Result Of Faculty.

Her mother has been a notable New
England housewife, whose cooking, and,
above all, whose pickle and preserve
making, were famous in the neighbor-
hood. Her daughter had inherited
this peculiar ability, and was as proud
of her store closet as her mother had
been before her. 1t happened one au-
tumn day, as she was making special
kind of pickle, which was liked by all
the friends who had the good fortune
to taste it, one of her neighbors came
in to call. She began comment upon
the pickles, bewailing her own ill-luck
in making them, and ended by saying
how she did wish that it were possible
to obtain some. 1t was at that instant
the money-making idea came into Mrs
Thornton's head. d" will make some
for you," she said. "You!" replied
her friend. eyes; why not. You want
pickles, | want occupation" And so
the thing was settled, and so soon as
others heard that she was willing to
undertake the work they came to her
with orders, and she found plenty of
picking to do. Then came requests
for catsups, sauces and relishes, and she
filed those orders. Her neighborhood
success set her to thinking seriously,
and during the winter she laid her plans.
She saw friends in Providence and took
orders for jellies, preserves, pickles
and things of a like nature, and she
made arrangements with the Woman
Exchange to send her any orders they
might get, and also to take what she
might have to spare on sale at their
rooms. AS soon as the spring opened
she began her work. She looked after
her strawberry beds ana her raspberry
and blackberry vines. She looked tC
see that her fruit trees were in condi
ton. She tended her cucumber vines
and her tomato plants. Her garden
had come to mean something more
than merely the appendage to the fam
lily comfort; it was to be the basis o.

If one has no cedar chest to store
woolens in very good substitute is a
trunk or flour barrel. The barrel
should be well washed, dried and lined
with newspapers. These are pasted
in, using thick flour paste, with large
spoonful of alum added to a quart of
paste. Cover every place on the inside
of the barrel. Cleat the cover together
and paste paper on the inside. The
woolens should be thoroughly brushed
and summed, carefully folded and laid
in. When the barrel is full, the cover
should be pressed down, stout ma
nilla paper put over the top, coming
down well around the barrel, tied
down with Irvine, and pasted SO as to
fit close. Woolens may be kept Sc
curely in this way. The great thing is
to sun and thoroughly brush the gar
ments, so that if moths are already
there to get them out, and then pack
securely. The long fur or plush gar
ment may be put into calico bag the
length of the garment, a patent gar
ment-holder put in at the neck, the bag
slipped on from the bottom part, drawn
closely at the top and tied, then sewed
around the wire loop of the holder.
Have row of loops put up in the closet
very near the ceiling, so that the gar.
ments hang full length, and come out
in the fall with never wrinkle. This
leaves room below them for another
row of hooks for shorter garments -
