It is a powerful, restorative

It has always been the scribe's for
tune to enjoy filling an invitation to
take tea with friends anywere and
at any time, and the response Thurs
day evening to the kind invitation of
Miss Mamie Reagan was by no
means a variation to this strict
rule. The pleasant weather and
good roats made the drive out to
Miss Reagan's home, five miles
south OF town, in company with
jolly crowd of young folks, very
enhancing; but this was far surpass.
ed for enjoyment when we reached
our destination, for awaiting the
hungry pleasure-seekers was q
sumptuous hot fried-chicken sup
per, presided over by the genial
and pleasant Reagan family, every
member of it being entertainers.
After partaking of the many good
things to our hearts content, and
spending a good time discussing
the topics of the day, to-wit: "Is
religion religious" stDoes chicken
gizzards beautify," and other i'm
portant questions, the guests took
their departure for the lawn party
given at the residence of Mr.. Crock
EFT in honor of his daughters
birthday. Here the pleasures of
the evening were continued and
the spacious lawn. decorated with
pretty girls and homely gentle
men, was a splendid spectacle,
and g large number were there to
enjoy it. The guests were favored
with music, both vocal and lnstru-
mental, and also elocutionary en-
deavors which were good. 1t was
a late hour before the crowd real
lied it was time to leave, and
on departing felt that the evening
was truly one to be remember by
all as most delightful one.
GOOD CROP PROSPECTS.
The large fields of fine corn in
this section of the county could not
help but be noted If the present
seasonable weather is continued the
crop will simply be phenomenal,
and as the wheat and other farm
products are SO bountiful this year
the tillers of the soil are in the
best OF spirits and predict that
times will be exceedingly good this
fall and they will have money to
thrown at the birds. The farmers
have their corn in this vicinity
about all laid by and it looks as
clean and neat as a pin.

The st. Louis Chronicle, speak
ing Of the Missouri farmers, says:
The farmers of Missouri as a class
are prosperous, and it is only the
lecturing demagogue who travels
through the State that knows any,
thing about the oppression of the
farming population. While it is
true that farmers are compelled
sometimes to yoke up with a mort
gage, still in . majority of cases, it
representa- . commercial transac-
ton that means profit ultimately.
Thus the farmer is following q bus
lness policy in keeping with the
city business man. who simply
borrows money on mortgage be-
cause he realizes that it is the
channel through which he win en-.
rich himself unless unexpected
misfortune comes to him. No. the
Missouri farmer 10 not retrograd-
ing. He i progressing, and he
will resent the insult OF tho shift

POlitenesS.

A boy who is polite to father and
mother is likely to be polite to
everybody else. A boy lacking
politeness to his parents may have
the semblance of courtesy, but is
never truly polite in spirit, and is
in danger, as he becomes familiar,
of betraying his real want OF cour-
tesy. We are all in danger of liv-
ing too much for the outside
world, for the impression which
we make In society, coveting the
good opinion of others and caring
too little for the good opinion OF
those who are in sense a part OF
ourselves, and who will continue
to sustain a special interest in us,
Notwithstanding these defects OF
department and character. We say
to every boy and to every girl,
cultivate the habit Of courtesy and
propriety at home-in the kitchen
as we'll as in the parlor-and you
will be sure in other places to de-
port yourself in a becoming and
attractive manner.

Weight of Money.
From the st. Paul Pioneer Press.


Do you know how many 81 bills
it takes to weigh as much as a $40
gold piece. Driving out to White
Bear recently one of those walking
compediums of useful information
sprung the above query and the
opinions that it elected show re-
markable range. One member of
the party, whose business it is to
handle money in large sums, after
profound thought, suggested that
the number would be from 1000
to 81, 200. Others guessed down the
line to 500, but no one less than
that number. After all had placed
themselves on record, the compen-
dunn stated that 1t was thirty or
thirty-one, according to their con-
dition as to dirtiness and age. He
could just as we'll have based his
calculations on $40 bills, but the
man who was giving them weigh
preferred to make the test with a
smaller denomination.

The Queen Of All.

Jersey cows are par excellence
bu.termakers. Judged by tested
records, they stand unrivalled but
teimakers. The milk of no other
cow is so rich in butter fats. No
other milk yields SO large per-
centage of cream. In no other
milk are the butter globules so large;
as a consequence, no other milk
throws up it's cream SO readily or 30
completely, and no other cream
churns 80 readily or loses 80 little
butter in the buttermilk. Unless it
be the Guernsey, no breed makes
butter naturally of SO rich golden
hue the year round as the Jersey.
It no more needs coloring than the
lily needs painting. No breed
makes butter of, such delicious
aroma or SO rich a nutty flavor.
For quantity and quality, therefore,
as a butter COW she stands absolutely
without a rival.

saee,s Regular Life.

- =
Russell Sage is "a regular in his
habits as an eight-day clock. He
gets up al 6, strolls around his Sta
bles and back eats q hearty breakfast
and then walks to the elevated sta
ton and shows his free pass. Since
his friend Jay Gould got him ON
the directorate of the Western
Union. he cate . hearty lunch at
the expense of that company; be-
fore that time he had an Office boys
lunch-a hunk of bread, q glass of
ice water and an apple. He never
gets ratified or hurried during the
day, and he has . good, clear,
healthy and contented complexion,
fringed BY . biack-and-tan beard.
that is TO say, his beard always pre-
sents three shades-black at the
bottom, tawny in the center and
white for about q quarter Of an inch
near the face. Perhaps it would all
be white but for the adventitious
aid of art. He goes 70 bed At 10
o'clo ck, and never has q fear Of the
inso mnia which regularly visits
other millionaires. 1t is the other
fellow-the Sage's pet lamb-who
blates all through the night and
scares sleep away.
