that when some one offers to give
something for nothing, and some one
else bites at the bait, there is then a
fraud at each end of the line; for the
man who expects to get something for
nothing is at heart as dishonest as the
one who promises what he doesn't in

the Hand of Maria Fattorossi.

the Hand of Maria Fattorossi.
About six months ago Michael Fatto-
rossi, an Italian living in Derby, re-
turned to the old country, leaving his
wife, Maria, to look after their little
farm. Iii February news came that
Micnae1 had died of consumption a. the
home of his parents near the city of
Rome.
Maria was consoled in the loss of her
husband by the payment of So, 600 on q
policy of life insurance which Michael
had taken out in her favor. Her fellow
countrymen gathered about her, and
soon it became evident that Maria had
many suitors for her hand in marriage
From the number of six Maria reduced
it to four, but was unable to select one
with whom to plight her troth.
There was Angelo Faffiano, who had
showed her many little attentions when
the grief for heT husband was fresh.
Petros Dianetro next seemed to be the
favored one, but Manuel Lubino was fair
er and more pleasing to the eye than
any Of the others, although Matteo Rus
so was an ardent wooer and couched his
loverlike words in exquisite Italian.
With the four madly in love with her
Maria in her own mind selected one aft
er the other for mate, but changed her
decision as often as either of the other
three presented his suit. She did not
know her own mind and finally hit
upon this plan for making her choice
About the middle of April she sum
moned all four Of her lovers to her home
There she had dainty feast and unfold
ed TO them her plan.
The time had arrived for planting the
little garden which surrounded her
house 1t needed spading before seeds
could be sowed, so Maria made this prop
osition: The garden spot should be di-
vided into four equal parts, each suitor
would be allotted one of the parts, and
the one who succeeded in first spading
his allotted part would receive her hand
The following day the four appeared
and at a given hour set to work. At the
end of two hours Matteo had completed
his task and Maria, who had watched
the work, accepted him for her future
husband. The other three were dis
missed with kiss.
Maria and Matteo are married, and
the latter is considered the luckiest
Italian in New Haven county. He has a
wife, Il farm, the So, 900 insurance and
two-thirds of his garden spaded by his
rivals. New Haven Letter.

Used Opium For Paint.

A rancher on Vashon island, Washing
ton, has his house painted more expep-
sively than any other house in the state.
Last fall hefound box which contained
200 pounds of what he thought was a
fine quality Of fireproof paint floating in
the sound. The paint was packed in
small tin cans and bore foreign label,
and as it had cost him nothing he
thought he would paint his house with
it. The house is now painted inside and
out, and in doing so the greater portion
of the paint was consumed. The rancher
has discovered, much 10 his sorrow, that
instead of fireproof paint he has his
house covered with about $1,000 worth
of smuggled opium, which was thrown
overheard by smugglers.-Portland Ore

The Latest Concessions to Modern Ideas by
the Society of Friends.

The yearly meeting of the Society OF
Friends has adjourned after having
adopted several changes in discipline
that will be of very general interest.
The rule concerning marriage, that fol
time out of mind has been regarded
with such rigor i'll the society, haS.bee
changed in the direction of liberality.
1t is now altogether feasible for mem
Der to marry one who is outside the So
ciety without losing standing or, in any
event, membership i'll the society. For
merly it was impossible for a member tC
marry any one not member of the So
ciety without the consent of the meet
ing, provided the person was member
of any other body. Now, in all cases, il
the meeting consent, it can be done III
good order. Even if a-member marry
contrary to the order of the meeting and
desire to retain membership, the meet
ing is now, by the changes i'll the dis
cipline, permitted to retain him. The
women's meeting, it may also be OBJ
served, is given equal voice with the
men.
The new discipline makes a number
of other changes Among the most in
teresting is one recommending that
Friends abstain from the use, cultiva-
ton, manufacture and sale Of tobacco.
A recommendation against the use and
sale of liquors has long been in force
and remains unchanged, except that it
has been extended SO as to embrace
furnishing any material whereby the
testimony against intoxicants is vio-
lated.
The testimonies in relation to "plain-
ness" of speech, apparel and behavior
remain unchanged. The article in rela-
tion to slavery is stricken out, and many
obsolete expressions are modernized.
The queries have been recast and now
embrace IA, the answering Of which
embraces a statement Of the condition
of the society ON almost all essential
points.
One of the changes that has been
made is the substitution Of the term
free ministry Of the gospel" i'll place
of the term "hireling," which was dis
tasteful to many. The testimony against
a paid ministry is not changed, but only
the name by which it is known is rem
dered more euphonious
Peace and arbitration are also advo-
Gated. d.-Philadelphia Press

IN many parts of the country farmers are complaining that they cannot get hands enough to do their work This fact doubtless seems strange 10 many who read of armies of unemployed raising a great hue and cry for bread and butter. The truth is, that whilst farming is the ruling industry of the nation it pre- sents no enticement to the crowds of people who throng the cities, many of them from foreign lands The protection idea has held out in- ducements for labor in the shops and in the mines, with whom the agricul- turist cannot compete-induee- ments, too, that have resulted in displacing the native artiticer by the skilled and unskilled workman from abroad-and consequently farm cultivation is at an immense disad- vantage, Thus the farmer is not only deprived of the means of plant ing and har 7esttng his crops, as he might do, but is compelled by high tariffs topay tribute to the protected trusts and monopolies that build up one industry at the expense of an Eothar

THERE was time when Populism, Grangerism, Third Partyism, or whatever name a general dissatis- faction with the two great National parties went by, was very catchy idea 1t seemed to offer an easy transit from old partisan association to new ones identified with needed or desirable reform. It was not easy, for instance, for bleeding Kan sas to quit republieanism, on which issue the State hed joined the Union, nor for South Carolina to leave De mocracy, which term fire readers have sought to make equivalent to notification and secession. But see what Kansas and South Carolina have produced in the effort to sub stitute a new party for the old one. From Calhoun to Tillman and lrby is frightful descent, and from even Plumb and Ingalls, to Lewelling and Pefferis terrific. The simple fact is that it is paternalism and centralized power instead of the old landmark doctrines of the constitution that has been the cause of the desuetude of the new parties. And it is De tnocracy pure and unadulterated that must bring the country back to the ancient moorings,
