GOVERNMENTAL ECONOMY.

Thrifty Traditions of the British Govern
ment Curiously Revealed.
A paragraph in the Life of Gen. Sir
Hope Grant" who did great service for
England as a military commander IN
India and in China, throws a curious
side-light upon some of the thrifty ira
ditions of the British government.
After Gen. Grants return from China
to England, he received at the hand of
the queen at Buckingham palace the
Grand Cross of the Bath. He was proud
of the decoration, but his biographer
adds that such honors are not without
expense to the receiver.
He finds among Sir Hopes papers a
bill vouched for by albert Woods,
Lancaster Herald" to the amount of
eighty-four pounds, four shillings, for
''fees, charges and disbursements for
the naturalization of your arms, etc,
as G. c. B."
Odder still was document from the
same ''Aabert Woods, Lancaster Her
ald," calling upon Sir Hope Grant to
send back the insignia of his former
lower order, K. c. B.-Knight Com
mander of the Bath-for the use of her
majesty's government!
It is a good old rule, for governments
as for men: "Take care of the pennies
and the pounds will take care of them

A Splendid Chance.

Everybody who is weak, delicate or sickly
wants to get we'll. DR.. Greene, of "a Temple
Place, Boston, Mass, makes a speciality of
treating patients through letter correspond
ence. The wisest thing all suffering people
can do is to write the Doctor, stating just how
they feel, mentioning every symptom of
which they complain, and he will answer the
letter, explaining each symptom and describ-
ing the case so thoroughly that patients un-
derstand their complaint as well as though
they had talked with the Doctor. He makes
his explanations so clear that they cannot
help but understand just what ais them, and
he tells exactly what to do to get we'll. 1t
caves journey to the city and doctors fees,
and costs nothing. Dr. Greene is the most
successful specialist in curing nervous and
chronic diseases. He is the discoverer OF
that wonderful medicine, DR.. Greene's Nerv-
ura blood and nerve remedy. Thousands are
being cured through his perfect system OF
letter correspondence. 1t has been proved
successful.

He ordered a civil government organ
lied, as had been done on occupying
Berlin in 1906. But in Smolensk no
Russian would accept office under the
common enemy. Napoleon met this
by ordering his nominees to serve un-
der pain of death. The first conspic-
uous citizen called upon was Engel-
hard. He refused. Napoleon order

John Palm in Germany.
Here in Smolensk, in the hot August
of 1912, Napoleon asked the advice of
his generals. The bravest of them all
Ney, urged a retreat for the purpose
of securing suitable winter quarters.
But Napoleon in 1912 was less soldier
than prophet, and decided to be guild
ed by the star of his genius.
On the 9TH of September Napoleon
was 200 miles further from Paris than
at Smolensk. He was at the village
of Borodino, and found 100000 Rus

- The Russian;Thistie Coming East.

The Russian thistle, which first made its ap-
pearance in this country about 1873 in Bon
homme county, S. D., has at last found its way
East. Its presence was discovered by William
M. van sickle supervising principal of the schools
OF western New York, who has devoted much of
his time to the study of botany He first saw
the weed last August in the West Shore railroad
yards in Weehawken, where in search for botan.
zeal specimens he has discovered other weeds
from the Northwest
Until Mr.. Van Sickle's discovery, it was sup
posed that the Russian thistle had penetrated no
further East than Indiana. The plant is supposed
to have been introduced into this country in some
haXseed which came from Russia This seed was
sown in Dakota, but as that district was heavily
wooded at that time it got little chance to spread
AS the timber gradually disappeared before the
inroads of civilization the weed became more
noticeable until in 1883 it covered half the area
or South Dakota. In the next year it covered
the greater part of North Dakota, all of South
Dakota and the eastern part of Nebraska II is
estimated that at present 1t covers an almost
continuous area of about 1000 square miles In
many OF the western states the legislatures have
passed acts with a view of exterminating the
weed and preventing its spreading.

Not Foot Ball Score, but the Vote 20
Retain Rev. Herbert w. Boyd OF Hart
ford.
The Congregational society, at a recent
meeting, voted to retain the pastor, Rev.
Herbert w. Boyd, against whom there was
a movement, said to be instigated by a
wealthy parishioner, Ephram Morris,
whose complaint was that Mr.. Boyd, who
calls himself an Independent in politics,
had voted for Cleveland for president.
The prudential committee, consisting of
only five members, proceeded, without in
structions or authority from the society, to
dismiss the pastor. A stay of proceedings
was had, and meeting of the society was
called for Saturday, when this vote was TAX
en-: "That we concur in the action of the
church to retain Mr.. Boyd as our pastor;
that the prudential committee be instruct
ed to engage Mr.. Boyd to continue with us
as acting pastor at a salary of $1,000 per
year and the use of the parsonage" The
first vote stood so to 1 the second 81 to 0.
Resolutions were also adopted, without a
dissenting vote, highly complimentary to
the pastor.
