The Ladies' Home Journal.

About none of the magazines this
month seems there to be such fresh
ness of spring time as the May Ladies'
Home Journal goes out to its hun
dreds of thousands of readers laden
with song, story and wealth of good
material. The number opens with "a
Day in PATHS Castle" written by
Florence Wilson, a young English
woman, who obtained permission
from the famous diva to describe
infinitely the daily life at Craig-y- Nos,
PATHS castle in Wales. This article
is accompanied by drawings and en-
cravings taken from photographs
made especially for the Journal by
Madame Patti herself. Mrs. John
Wanamaker gives a strong paper on
'The Patient Work of Motherhood"
Altogether the May Journal is more
than usually attractive and no woman
can afford to be withoutit. Published
by the Curtis Publishing Company of
Philadelphia, for ten cents per num-
Der and one dollar per year.

Dor Day by Ellen Beauchamp, which
is appropriate for the occasion. Air
Aud Lang Syne:
The winter storms have passed away,
And spring time now is here
With sunshine smiling all around,
And heavens blue and clear.
The gifts of nature brighten earth,
And make her garden gay;
They give CHEEKY greeting bright
On this, the Arbor Day.
The flowers have risen from their sleep,
And decked in garments gay,
They lift their smiling faces bright
On this, the Arbor Day.
They shed forth all their fragrance rare,
And loving tribute pay
And give all of their little wealth
On this, the Arbor Day.
The birds with gladstone voices sing,
Each its melodious lay,
And music swells each little throat,
On this, the Arbor Day
The trees put forth their greenest leaves
And welcome now the chosen tree
Which we shall plant today.

The Reason Why.

EDITOR TRIBUNE Some weeks since
"A Democrat" enquired through your
paper why it was that the call for a
Democratic county. convention "was
not published in the Democratic pa
PERI" In reply we will say that it
was not published in the Democratic
paper for the very good reason that
we could not get it printed in a Dem
ocratic paper without going out of
the county, and believing in patroniz-
ing "home industry" we published it
in the TRIBUNE. Probably it would
have been wall enough to have pub
lished it in both payers printed in the
county, which was an oversight on
the part of the committee.
Had we strickly Democratic pa
per. in Stevens county we should most
certainly have published the call in
that paper.
By the Committee,
o. f. TEwKsBURY,
Chairman.

Benson Monitor: Benson won nine
and lost thirteen games as the result
of the chess tournament at Morris
Monday. Although defeated, the
Benson players enjoyed the hospital
ity of the Morris club immensely.
They seemed willing to do almost
everything that would add enjoyment
and pleasure for their visitors except
lose the most number of games. This
they were decidedly opposed to.
There is some talk of Morris coming
down here next week to play the re-
turn series, when there is no doubt
but what tho tables will be turned.

While in St. Paul last week we
were fortunate enough to renew our
acquaintance with Charles F. Rogers,
of the firm Of Rogers & Ordway. We
knew Mr.. Rogers fifty years ago, and
had not met him until last week since
1916. We commenced setting type
in 1910 in the Herald of Freedom
Office in Concord, New Hampshire,
N. 2. Rogers, father of Charles F.,
being its editor. We had a very
pleasant visit with Mr.. Rogers, talk
ing over anti-slavery times of fifty
years ago and Of the men who took
part in opposition to that giant evil,
slavery, one of the greatest and most
eloquent writer's among the sterling
anti-slavery men being N. P. Rogers.
1t carried us back to the time when
we, a boy of sixteen, was pelted with
mud and stones while delivering the
Herald of Freedom to subscribers in
Concord; but these insults and abuse
made us hate the devilish institution
of slavery with a more bitter hatred,
and we thank God that we took part
in the war that abolished forever the
accused system of slavery in this
country. ..
