To Get Worms without Digging.

Walter Sawyer, a professional fish
erman, says: Nobody need work at
digging worms for bait unless he Is
fond OF the exercise, for they can be
procured In almost any quantity
with very little labor whenever
they are needed. The process is
simple.
Take strong stick four or five
feet long and sharp at one end, and
GO 10 some locality, such as the back
OF the barn, where the worms are
sure TO be plentiful.
Drive the stick four or five inches
into the ground with a hammer or
stone, and then begin TO twist IL
with a rotary motion.
Every few minutes hit the top a
rap TO drive the point further into
the ground and keep on twisting.
In five minutes the worms will be-
gin TO crawl out OF their holes, and
all you have TO do is TO pick them up
and put them In your can.
They hear the grinding and think
IL Is mole after them, and know
that only on the surface are they
safe. SO they come out, those near
est TO the sound making their ap-
pearance FIRST with every evidence OF
haste and trepidation.
Sometimes they come up for dis
tance OF fifteen feet from the twirl-
ing stick, and in cases where they
ARE plentiful IA many as a hundred
can be literally scared out OF the
ground In this manner.
Some people think a worm has no
sense, and they may be right in gen
eral, but a worm knows that mole
is its deadlest enemy and will come
squirming 10 the top OF the ground
any time IL hears "A mole coming in
its direction.

Some Suggestive Figures.

Daniel @. ZerCher Of Topeka gives
the public at least one argument for
a new party in the following; "a few
months ago saw letter in Kan
Sis City paper signed by ex-Secre-
tary Of State Higgins, Boosting that
thr populists had then held the state
officers about five months and that
they had not shown up the much talk
ed of rascality Of the republicans, but
on the other hand had found every
thing all right just to refresh the
ex-secretary's defective memory and
for the information TO the people /
submit small comparison on two
items of the contingent expenses Of
the secretary Of states office, which
is as follows;
Postage, 1891, republican. $ 41O 90
Extra clerk hire, 1891, rep. 400 55
Total. :. .............. S 80 So
Postage, 1892, republican. $ $40 90
Extra clerk hire, 1882, rep. 465 20
Total. ................. $1,O35 90
Postage, 1893, populist. y 397 OO
Extra clerk hire, 1898, pop. None.
Total .............,." y 3Si w
From this comparison on two
items Of contingent expense only, you
will see that the populists have saved
$413.35 over the republicans in 1891,
and $638.6 in 1892 The reader will
also observe that not one dollar has
bsen paid out extra clerk hire in the
secretary of states office since 1t has
been under populist rule, notwith-
standing the business Of the state is
constantly increasing. Formerly the
fees of this office have been retained
by the secretary Of state, but besides
the above Secretary Osborn has turn
ed into the treasury all the fees re-
ceived by him, which for 1893
amounted to $1,87S.15. 1t should
also be rememered that the fees Of
the secretary Of states Office for char
tors, etc, have been reduced more
than 80 per cent

The Australian Woman.

Though pretty, tall and well formed, the
Australian is not graceful Her feet are
seldom small, her hands rarely beautiful.
Moreover, she does not dress well Her
toilet has none of the chic of the Pari-
senne's, little of the sobriety OF the English
woman's. Overdressed or dowdy, she pro-
duces the impression OF not only having
little taste, but no artistic sense Of the fit
ness of things. Stylish and elegant women
are to be seen more frequently in Melbourne
than elsewhere. Nevertheless dress is
dear to the soul OF an Australian. and much
Is spent on IL. Down in the lowest social
grades it plays an important part.
The Australian hugs the idea OF equality,
and believing in uniformity of dress as the
visible sign of equality 9ften sacrifices ac-
tual comfort to obtain fashionable cloth
ing. An Australian family makes brave
show on holidays. There may be bare feet
and rags in the house, but there are cheap
feathers and gloves in the street. Here the
vanity OF the race peeps out and hatred OF
apparent social distinctions, for vanity is
stronger in the Australian woman than
ambition, Just as Incidence IL more in-
herent than energy. She is clever, but not
intellectual; accomplished oftener than
highly educated. To be able to play the
piano is regarded as sort OF cachet Of dis
unction, not to play II Is lamentable sign
of neglected education,
Tact is natural to her, also quick sense
Of perception. With the ready ease that a
troutlet changes its color into harmony
with that Of its surroundings, she adapts
herself to circumstances, catches the cue Of
her encourage and contrives to produce a
favorable impression. With cheerful dis
position and mercurial temperament, the
serious side Of life scarcely appeals 70 her.
Foreseeing not that to SOW the wind is TO
reap the wbirlwind, she exacts neither obe-
dienoe nor due reverence from herchlldren,
and without being specially religious leaves
the responsibility of their future very much
to Providence. North American Review.

bers-Lodge Notes.

The Law Regarding Suspension of Mem
bers-LOdGe Notes.
The following extracts from The Official
Digest are instructive: The officers of a
lodge have nothing whatever to do in the
matter of suspending member for non
payment Of assessments. If the member
does not pay his assessment within the 80
days prescribed, he is suspended by opera
ii N of law. Neither the lodge nor any Of
flcer thereof has any voice or authority in
the matter of suspending member for
nonpayment of assessments or dues A
member failing to pay assessments within
the specified time is suspended by opera
tion of law, and no action is necessary by
the dictator or the lodge to legalize his
suspension. A lodge has the right to pay
the assessment of a member out of its gen
eral fund, and such payment, whether au-
thorized or not operates to hold the mem
Der in good standing until the amount
paid Is consumed"
Worcester lodge of Worcester, Mass, has
issued circular containing an offer to

sums to be paid after initiation of candi-
dates.
