The Inconvenience of Being Wise.

A certain learned doctor had been
preaching in a country church and was
on his way back again. As he rode
along he fell into theological medita-
ton, taekling several stiff dogmatical
questions, and consequently he utterly
lost his way. at last he met a country
man. of whom he asked the way tC
Savonnieres-
But the countryman knew him and
said:
why, master, you're an honest man,
indeed. heard you preach in our
church, and never heard better ser
mon in my life. should Ike to hear
a dozen such sermons" well, well,
my good friend, hope to say a few
more words in season some other time
but tell me the way TO Savonnieres.
NAY, nay" said the countryman,
''may God keep me from such pre-
sumptuousnessI to teach a man who
knows everything; you are laughing al
me, master Why. the little children
know the way to Savonnieres, and are
you, who knows all things, ignorant OF
such a little matterl Nay, It's not Ike
ly, master God keep you" And 50
he left him.-Bervalde de Verville.

There is one thing this government
ought to do, and that is to put an export
duty on our rich and beautiful American
girls. More gold is going out OF the
country through them than is coming IN
through the English syndicates- With
In the last few years 81, SOC, 900 of honest
American money has gone to Europe
through the matrimonial gate to pay the
debts incurred by titled blackguards in
debauchery. Perhaps by the time a good
many more of our richest and most
petted American girls have been beaten
black and blue and driven insane by
their noble foreign husbands, marrying
titles will become unpopular even among
silly American women. Novel reading
is answerable for much of this folly,
those idiotic tales in which lords and
earls figure. But the lord of real life Is
like anything but the lord in the novel.
There is a story current and believed in
Great Britain that a lady with royal
blood in her veins has been beaten by
her husband. At amy rate, it is very
ungrateful return for the prosperity our
country enables US to enjoy to take the
money her bounty has showered. on Us
across the sea and give it and our fairest
girls to brutal hbertines. 1t is indeed.

JOY That Killed.

Hapless Bernard HeenyI He was an
iron molder at Rockland, ILL.,; rough and
boisterous when intoxicated, but good
fellow withal. On his wedding day he
was very merry. He and some friends
celebrated the event noisily. A police
man interfered to stop them. A fight
followed and the officer was killed. They
were arrested, and Bernard was SEN
fenced to imprisonment for life in the
Joliet penitentiary. 1t was a doleful
ending of his wedding day. He served
out part of the sentence and behaved
well-so well that his sentence was
shortened, The good tidinss were brought
to him that he would be free in October.

Tree Foods

Dr.. Felix L. Oswald, specializing on
what the world will do when it becomes
thickly populated over its whole surface,
informs us that we need fear nothing
from over population. Fish ponds, he
says, can be made fifteen times more
profitable acre for acre than the best
pastures now are, and they will be so
when we understand fish culture as well
as the Chinese do.
But the doctor expects more from tree
foods than from any other source in the
days when the world shall be thickly
populated. The principal elements of
human food are sugar, -four and fat.
Beechnuts yield an oil almost equal to
olive oil, while from walnuts and hazel
nuts an excellent oil is produced. Be
sides that at least FIVE varieties Of olive
can be cultivated in California, and
when the olive trees already planted
come into bearing we shall have enough
oil to supply all the markets of North
America. So, when the country be-
comes thickly populated, we shall be
able to get all our fat foods from trees.
Then we shall no more be forced to cul-
tivate grain fields as food for the hun
dreds of thousands of animals annually
slaughtered to furnish us largely our fat
foods.
Moreover, sugar is obtained from trees,
too. There is maple sugar. A certain
Grecian plum yields 80 per cent. more
sugar than the best cane. More than
fifty different orchard fruits abound in
saccharine elements, and a number of
conifers produce honey like sap. If we
only turned our attention toit we should
soon be able to produce tree sugar In
abundance, with not hundredth part
of the labor now employed in cultivating
the canes, and the trees would occupy
nothing like the space filed by the cane
plantations.
Then for our flour foods Land that
gives hundred pounds Of potatoes will
yield more than 200 pounds of bana-
mas and three acres of bananas will sup
port twenty-five men. Chestnuts may
be boiled or roasted and ground into
-four, and three acres of chestnut trees
will yield bread for family, and in
Corsica as a matter of fact nine out of
ten farmers thus derive their bread
stuffs. Chestnut trees live a thousand
years or more. In brief, when we learn
to derive our foods from trees and arbo-
real plants the earth will support ten or
a hundred times as many inhabitants as
it does now, with only 1.-THE of the hard
work.

IAN IDEAL WEEK.
Report of the Signal Service on a
Week of Kansas Weather.

The weekly state signal service bull
letin furnished by Agent ". Z. Gulick
says that there has been an abundance
of rain in all districts except the ex-
IRENE southwest, where heavy rains
fell the preceding week. An excess in
the northern counties, a deficiency in
the Kaw valley, an excess south of the
Kaw and in the middle division, cul-
minating in Kingman, Sedgwick and
Harvey, where it amounts to five inches
above the normal. 1t falls below the
average to the west, Hail IN localities.
With an average amount of sunshine
the temperature has ranged ahc--oi, Inc
normal f fCr the week.
The sunshiny days, the warm nights,
the abundant deWs and the frequent
ana cOpiOqs showers have conspired to
render this au ideal week for the agri-
culturist. Corn is growing quite rap
idly in ali parts of the state. Dat
straw has heightened considerably.
Oats have improved and promise good
crop, and in the central counties, es-
pecially COffey, will be very good
crop. The binder has entered The
wheat fields in all parts of the state,
and the "harvest is now on" The
straw is generally short, but the berry
is unusually good. Flax promises well;
it is now in bloom in the northern
counties. BlackberrieS are ripening in
the south, while the early varieties are
in the market. Sorghum, cane and
Katfir corn are in a flOurishing condi-
ton generally. In the southeast millet
is not promising crop.

Tue Creamery Flourishing.

No buster spot is found in the early
mornings than the Abilene creamery
east of the city. 1t will we'll repay a
visit to see the iong string of farmers
wagons bringing in milk and the whirl-
ing machinery extracting the butter.
About II, 900 pounds of milk are
brought in daily by the 81 patrons of
the creamery and $50 pounds of butter
is the daily output. This is more than
twice as much as was made three
months ago and proves that the farmers
are realizing the value of the creamery
to them and the surrounding country.
The increasing patronage has compelled
the addition or a new separator and
other machinery and is testimonial to
the good management of j. +. Nissley
who is making so signal a success in
conducting the three creameries owned
by the company Of which he is the
head. He reports continuation of
the good demand that has always
existed in both the eastern and western
markets for the famous ''B-S" brand
Of butter. A carload will be shipped
to Chicago tomorrow. Shipments fol
all three of the creameries are made
from this city and the location of the
central creamery here has done
even more than was promised last yea
when the proposition to place it here
was made.

STATE PRoHIBITIoNISTS.
Action to Be Taken for Driving Out
the Original Package Sellers.

Since the very successful annual
meeting of the State Temperance union
in May the original package infamy
has invaded and desecrated our state.
The perfidy of the foe that coDfronts
us awakens an intense interest. The
people of the state demand another
great convention, for the purpose of
again declaring their loyalty to prohi-
bition, to urge congressional action and
to devise whatever means may be nee
essary to resist any and all encrOach-
ments upon Kansas soil by the ''curs
Of low degree" who attempt to sell
liquor to our people.
Yielding to the opportunities of the
people, the Kansas State Temperance
union designates Wednesday, July Is,
1890, as the date for such convention,
to assemble in Topeka. The basis of
representation is as follows: Each
county shall be entitled to one delegate
at large for every. thousand of its pop
ulation, to be appointed in any manner
that localities may find most conven-
lent. Every church, Sunday school,
temperance society, Or other organiza-
ton in sympathy with the purpose of
the convention, is invited to elect three
delegates =
Delegates should be appointed and
reported Immediately. All friends of
the cause viii be welcomed, whether
accredited delegates or not.
Special railroad rates and other de-
tails will be announced hereafter.

A Temperance Demonstration.


UNIQUE in the history of professions
was the great temperance parade in Lon
don, and it shows, too, the growth of the
total abstinence sentiment in that city
Of ale houses and gin palaces.
Hundreds of bands of music played,
hundreds of banners waved and glittered.
Among these two American flags, con-
spicuously borne, showed that citizens
of the United States had carried their
teetotal principles with them into foreign
lands.
But, unlike almost any other process
sion that ever marched through dusty
streets, this long line of people had
many women in its ranks, not walking
the streets, but riding in carriages. A
startling feature of that march was
these women, dressed in black, the
wives, mothers and sisters of men whom
drink had slain, and heading their group
was the motto, "Rum caused our sor-
rows"
More impressive still was the group OF
children, orphans of drunkards, at their
head the grim question: "Who viii com
pensate these?' After a demonstration
like that the English government viii
think twice about the subject of COM
pensation for saloon keepers for the loss
of their licenses. Gladstones portrait
appeared frequently in the line, showing
him to be the favorite statesman of the
temperance people.
An interesting feature of the great
temperance movement In Great Britain
is the hearty aid afforded it by the
Roman Catholic church authorities, not
ably by Cardinal Manning.
