Our more or less esteemed (Cheboy-

dead" that settles it, but to an or
binary mind, judging from the result
OF elections few months since, when
the fight was made s1uarely on what
he called McKinleyism, it would
seem that it was pretty lively

Another and another wreath
We deck new graves each spring,
And smaller grows the gray-haired
band
Whose hands the garlands bring.
Grave veterans we follow slow
The dull beat of the drum;
There's one brief march before us
now,
And Comrades! we shall come
One sleep to share, while DER each
grave,
The starry flag we loved shall wave.
We mourn you not! The day seems
far
Stree side by side we fought,
And onward to the meeting place
The way Is now so short!
Not many May-times shall we hear
The summons of the drum;
One sleep TO share, while GER each
grave,
Till Comrades! we shall come
We wait with unforgetting hearts,
Thank God! the starry flag shall wave.

How to Help Your TOwn.-NO. 2.
 z Of course very near the head of list of things to do for your own town must come the injunction to patronize home in- dustries and home dealers. The class of people who always want something diff ferent" will always spend their money away from home, often to find what they call novelties have been displayed on To- cal shelves and counters, and quite likely at lower price than in the cities, for it is on passe goods that large dealers are generally giving bargains. Our merchants could carry magnificent stocks of goods if only assured that local customers would look at stocks before going to the cities. Why not do this much? Many people would be surprised if they knew the ex- tent of stocks carried by our merchants, or were half as well acquainted with the interiors of our local stores as they are with those of Springfield. Merchants may well cry out against the injustice of chance, especially when the out-of-town buyers are the families of merchants in other lines, as is often the case. Another class not above being suited at home, yet rush to every travelling auction store or bankrupt sale that comes along, nearly always admitting later that they get cheat ed, but just as ready to bite at the next baited hook hung under their noses. Els pecially will such go fol some nasty nos- trum, salve, or tooth wash, of which they know nothing, save what the glib-tongued vendor may tell between his clownish acts and songs. Yet these buyers only waste pence where a better-tO-dO class divert dollars from local circulation.
 While the business outlook is mucE improved and few people desiring em ployment are idle, merchants generally are complaining of having a trade much below the average as to amount and read mess of payment. Many people being out of employment ran in debt, and usec up their surplus at the savings banks Then for time wages were lower thar now, and it takes time to catch up anC again get into the feeling that m oney cal be freely parted with.

away from moths and carpet bugs; the making, mending, and altering of the spring and summer garments for the fast growing boys and girls, the dried fruit, and beef and hams to be looked after, and thousand and one other cares, not the problem, "what shall we give them to eat p
 The way to a mans heart is said to be through his stomach, and we all know that well-fed man is much more good natured than hungry one, so the good housewife knows the value of we'll cooked, appetizing meals. The highly seasoned food, and salted meats that were suited for winter use, lose their relish in the warm spring days, and we would all be vegetarians for the time if it were possi- ble. Happily the art of canning has bridged over the time, as we say, "between hay and grass" and we may at any time en- joy canned fruit and vegeta bles, though the best of canned vegetables are not to compared with those gathered fresh from the garden.
 It will soon be time to prepare our sum- mer garden, which should be quite near the house, to make it easier for the house. wife to assist in the lighter part of. the garden work, such as cutting the aspara- gus, helping to SOW and weed the beets, carrots and onions, and gathering the diff ferent vegetables as they are wanted for use.
 A bed for flowers must not be neglected, and corner can be spared from the gar den, where the pinks and pansies, verbe- na, poppies, and mignonette may flourish with the crisp lettuce and feathery leaved parsly. The house plants will most of them be set in the front yard and veran- das, but we will not wish to rob them of all their beauty to furnish a supply of cut l flowers for ourselves and our friends so unless one has plenty of time to go to the fields and woods for wild flowers to fill the vases and baskets, garden flowers are a necessity. A ten cent packet of mixed flower seeds will be quite a large bed and | give constant satisfaction with its almost daily surprise of something new or differ | ent. Such a flower bed will not cost much time or money and will be just the thing to cut from for house decorating. You need not expect anything very choice but you will have many sweet and pretty | blossoms from quite early in the season | till the frosty nights of autumn come to destroy their beauty.
 Thongh the many household cares of the farmers wife may prevent her from helping much in the garden work, she will find much pleasure in even a short daily visit, while she notes the rapid growth of the different vegetables and the daily un- folding of some new flower, and feels a satisfaction in the surety of an abundant and varied supply of healthful food for
 her family, and plenty of flowers and fra grance with which to make her home cheery and attractive.
 The pleasure and satisfaction, as well as health gained by time spent in garden ing, will surely compensate for the extra care and labor it has brought to the far mer's wife. MRS. s. 0. CRAWFORD.

One of the strongest arguments that has ever been urged in favor of woman's suffrage was the action of the Wyoming men, who after having had womans suf- frage in the territory for twenty five years, were determined also to have it in the state. But congress was unwilling to admit Wyoming with woman's suffrage, and the representatives of Wyoming tel egraphed their constituents that the ter ritory could never come in until that clause had been removed. The mass meeting of women, knowing the necessity of statehood to their territory, and cOnfi- dent that the men would give them the ballot as soon as the state was admitted, decided to consent to the withdrawal of that provision, and so informed the mems mass-meeting, but those grand men sent this word to their representatives: "You tell those men that Wyoming needs state hood; we can never have the irrigation necessary until we are a state, but our wives, mothers and sisters have wrought with us since the territory was organized, and we will stay out of the Union hund- red years before we will enter without wOman's suffrage" And without further ado, Wyoming was admitted.
