1t is refreshing to visit three unions
in succession where the mother union
is lowering over the young women
and greatly desiring Y union. This
was the case at Litchfeld, Willmar
and Morris and Y unions were organ
lied at each Of these places. After
a delightful reception. with, dainty
refreshments, I spoke to the young
people in the Ne. E. church which had
been most artistically decorated by
the girlies for the occasion. Beauti-
full towering plants, with white and
yellow bunting, made the occasion an
inspiring one. Eleven young women
felt the heart throb for humanity and
donned the white ribbon of purity
and total abstinence. | was enter
tanned by Rev. and Mrs. Willett, and
a mothers meeting was held the
afternoon Of the 9th, where the day

ture. The grounds heretofore used
have been sold and transformed into

ing investment We certainly ought
to have something of the kind.

A Cool Scot.

Mr.. McGregor, q Scot who resides III
San Francisco is said by an exchange TO
me one of the most argumentative OF men
and one of the calmest. Early one morn
inc. ms he was returning home, he was ad-
dressed by. man who emphasized his
words with pistol
"Throw up your hands!'
"Why?" asked Mr.. McGregor calmly
"Throw them upl"
"But what for?'
"Put up your hands!" insisted the foot
pad, shaking his pistol. "Will you 90
what tell your"
"That depends" said Mr. McGregor.
eff We can show mo any reason why i

what wull, but yer mere requnlso Wau
be no justification for me to do SO apsuru
n thing. Moo, why should ye, com
nlete stranger, ask me ut this cor o tne
mornin on public street tn pit up Ha
handsY'
"If YOU don't quit gassin and obey or,
ders. III blow the top of your head OH
cried the robber.
"Wbat? Faith, man, ye must De 90,

And so Mr. McGregor marched DIS h'al
to tho city prison and handed him over u
Captain Douglass.
ut wudna be bad idea to put nm ), IN

"Tbere's little doot hut the buddys oai''
And he resumed his homeward Walk
