WELLINGTON'S DECISION.
When the Moment to Strike Had
Come, He Did Not Hesitate.

"hen the moment to Strike Had
Come, He Did Not Hesitate.
Badajos lies in Spain five miles from
the Portuguese frontier. 1t was the
key of a situation. Wellington's chance
was to strike at Badajos before the
French marshals could combine and
crush him. His task was both in front
of him and behind him. He lacked
transport; he lacked food for the men;
the soldiers were eating cassava root
instead Of bread; the bullocks were
weak and emaciated. All this was the
doing of the parliament at home.
But Wellington knew that the mo-
ment to strike had come, and he seems
to have hesitated very little. Placing
no faith in the tongues of the Portu-
guese, he made his plans with all pos
sible secrecy. The guns for the siege
were loaded on board the transport at
Lisbon and consigned to a fictitious ad-
dress. But in the river SadhaO they
were placed upon smaller vessels, and
finally they were again landed and
drawn by bullocks to Eloas, a post in
the possession Of the allies. Having
stationed two-thirds of his force under
General Graham and General Hill to
prevent most probable interference
by Soult and Marmont, Wellington ad-
vanced, reaching Eloas on the 18th of
March, 1872. He had made the most
incredible exertions.
The stupidity of the Portuguese had
We'd with the stupidity Of the govern
ment at home. Wellington had been

paign upon his own shoulders. If he
was to win Badajos, he was to win II

and trustworthy subordinates. He was

OLD TIMES, OLD FRIENDS, OLD LOVE.

There are no days like the good old days
The days when we were youthful;
When humankind were pure Of mind
And speech and deeds were truthful;
Before a love for sordid gold
Became mans ruling passion
And before each dame and maid became
Slaves to the tyrant fashion.
There are no girls like the good old girls
Against the world I'd stake EN-
As buxom and smart and clean Of heart
As the Lord knew how to make 'em.
They were rich in spirit and common sense,
A piety all supportin;
They could bake and brew and had taught
school, too,
And they made the hkeliest courtin.
There are no boys like the good old boys
When we were boys together,
When the grass was sweet to the brown bare feet
That dimpled the laughing heather,
When the pewee sung to the summer dawn
Of the bee in the billowy clover,
Or down by the mill the whippoorwill
Echoed his night song over.
There is no love like the good old love-
The love that mother gave U.s.
We are old, old men, yet we pine again
For that precious grace-God save US.
30 we dream and dream of the good old times,
And our hearts grow tenderer, fonder,
As those dear old dreams bring soothing CLEANS
OF heaven away off yonder.

Weather and Crop Report.
DIHCcIoIJ JVUIo,
r. B. WATSON, Mgr M. G. {

Des Moines. Iowa, July 2, 1900
The average temperature the past
week was little above normal, the high
est record being from the northern half
of the state. The extreme heat of the
first two days eliminated in severe local
storms on the night of the Goth and ear
ly morning of the 9th. Some damage
was caused by wind squalls and heavy
local showers in the central district, and
hail in narrow belts, but unreasonable
benefit resulted from the copious rainfall
and refreshing GOODNESS that followed
the storm. Except in very small areas
there is now ample moisture for present
needs of all crops.
Corn fields are now unusually clean,
and the bulk Of the crop has been laid by
in excellent condition. Good progress
has been made in haying; rye barley and
winter wheat are being harvested; early
sown oats and spring wheat are nearing
maturity. In southern counties oats on
rich land suffered some damage by lodg-
ing and rust.
Though meadows have been thicken-
ed up at bottom by recent rains the to-
tai forage crop will be less than usual
Potatoes have made fine growth
but the bugs in some sections are more
destructive than in recent years.
The apple crop is quite variabl g ia
all sections, but the general condition
indicates less than the normal yield.

His Hint For n Raise.

said the hardware drummer, "a young
man who is assistant bookkeeper. He's
a steady chap. minds his own business
and is as shrewd as they make them.
The other day the senior partner of the
firm. who seldom comes around, made
a tour Of inspection, and as he ap-
preached the assistant bookkeeper he
noticed the solemn expression on his
face. Desiring to be genial, he said:
"'How are you, young man? l see
you are at your work. That Is good.
Close attention to business will always
bring its own reward. Tell me, what
are you earning now per week?
'"The young man, without moments
hesitation, answered, Twenty dollars,
sir, but / only get half Of that "-Phil-
