Paid In Coin.

The Boston Saturday Evening Ga
Zette prints an ingenious little story,
which it Is to be hoped is an invention
rather than record of fact, but which
conveys an obvious moral in a remem-
berable way. A pretty young lady
boarded q morning horse-car which
was otherwise occupied by business
men and clerks on their way down
town. Her advent was, of course, q
welcome incident.
She had left home in haste as it
seemed and was engaged in pulling
on pair of long gloves, which she
presently proceeded to button by
means of that indispensable adjunct OF
the feminine toilet, a hair-pin. She
had hardly begun operations when i,
slipped from her fingers and fell to
the floor.
1t landed at the feet of the young
man beside her. He picked it up, but
instead of returning it to its owner,
he gently took her wrist in his left
hand and camly continued the button.
ing process.
All the men in the car had been
watching the pretty girl, some openly,
and others from behind their news.
papers. Now all the papers dropped
every one looked and wondered what
the girl would do.
She did nothing. Not muscle OF
her face moved, and she showed no.
consciousness of what was going on
The young man, with a look of
triumph, finished his pleasing task,
and the girl with preoccupied air
and without glance in his direction,
opened her pocket book, took out a
nickel, and placed it in his hand.
His expression changed. The color
came into his face, and he murmured
what was evidently an apology. She
listened with perfect stimulation of
innocence, and handed him another
nickel.
BY this time his face was
scarlet, and he began another low
toned but earnest protestation.
The young lady signalled the con-
ductor, and rose to leave the car, say
ing at the same time in a voice audible
to all the passengers, mo, I cannot.
I never give more than a dime for
having my gloves buttoned or my
boots blacked."

Isolation of Farm Life.

In no civilized country have the cultiva-
tors of the soil adapted their home life so
badly to the conditions of nature as have
the people of our great Northwestern
prairies The European farmer lives in a
village where considerable social enjoy
ment is possible. The women gossip at the
village WELL and visit frequently at one
another'S houses; the children find play
mates close at hand; there is q school and a
church. The old men gather of summer
evenings to smoke their pipes and talk of
the crops; the young men pitch QuCitS and
play ball the village green. In a word
something takes place to break the monot-
ony of daily life; there is a joyous side
that lightens labor and privation The dwell
lings, if small and meagerly furnished
have thick walls of brick or stone that
keep out the summers heat and the win
ter'S chill.
Here is an interesting article which should
be read carefully. There is great deal Of
truth in what is said in it about the pain
full isolation Of prairie life and the resulting
evils. But whether any change is now pos
sible is another question. So many farms
are mortgaged that it would be difficult to
make at this time a rediVison OF the land :
and if we get the population together in vii
lagos the question arises whether they
could live in harmony; whether there would
not be perpetual quarrels over cattle, hogs
chickens, etc. But these are matters of
detail, and 1t is a question worth discus
sing, and we would like to hear from some
of our readers on the Subject. When we
add to the facts given by MIR. Smalley, in
his dark picture, the horrors of the robber-
les practices upon these poor settlers, by
rings and combines, Keeping them in pow
erty and unable to defeG1d themselves, and
improve their condition, we have a spec a
CT not to be pars!ieied outside of Russia.
The Representative wants to see the
people discuss every question that may help
to make their lives brighter and happier.
Would this proposition do it? l. d.

That's Right.-A Good EXAMPLE.

able gentleman, sends US s. for a share
Of stock in the REPRESENTATIVE.
Many thanks. There are hundreds of
farmers who are able to follow Mr.
Dale's example and we hope they will
do SO. Some Of us have had to shoulder
heavy burden to place the REPRE-
SENTATIVE where it now stands.
Every week Mr.. Donnelly was called
upon to make up some shortage, until
his contributions amounted to about
1900: and Mr.. Eckford has had to
'chip in' couple of hundred dollars.
Now the paper is safely upon its feet.

pand it to increased usefulness. 1t

tions, and added 10000 new converts

the stock; and we hope every local al

one share of stock, for S.. One ALI
