Several hundred Brown penny pic
lures have been ordered for the chill
dren of the various grades. These
pictures are reproductions of famous
works of art, printed on paper 53xs
inches. The children are told not to
ask their parents for money, but If
they prefer to spend their own pennies
for pictures rather than for nuts and
candy they are encouraged to do so.
Many Of the youngest children have
considerable artistic taste and are
quick to see the difference between
little gems of art and the common
picture cards which are so extensively
used for advertising.

Truck Raising PAYS.

Here are your groceries, and there
are still S2.66 coming to you.'' The
writer overheard Frank Mccormick
speak thus to Henry Smith, and not
from idle curiosity, but for the pur-
pose of this item, made inquiry rela-
tive to the transaction Mr.. Smith
had brought in few sacks of onions
for which he received half cash and
half trade al Bishops store. After
making his purchases there was still
due him this balance in trade. Every
farmer tributary to this city, could, if
he would, bring from his farm on every
trip to the city some sort of produce
with which to purchase his groceries
and other necessaries, and go home
with ba ance to his credit, as did
Mr.. Smith. 1t can't be done raising
wheat. But there are score of
things call them truck" If you will,
which are always in demand in a city
like this, and which always find profit
able market. To raise them involves
labor but not much land, and they do
not interfere with the staple crops on
the farm.
Here is something for our farmers
to think about. One of our grocers
had to 60 to a neighboring village
this week to purchase a quantity of
honey, onions and beans to meet his
local retail demand. That money was
paid out to farmers too far from home.

After n year Of arduous negotiation
the TurkiHh government yielded, and
In February, 1853, the keys were hand
ed over to the Latin monks, and the
silver star was established in the sane
tuary OF Bethlehem.
Unfortunately Emperor Nicholas. as
head of the Greek church, considered
this an infringement of his rights and
