delegates and members of the society, by

the society can spend their vacations az
comparatively little cost to themselves
Many Interesting anecdotes were related
concerning the society by Mrs. Roberts,
who also traced it's growth from it's Or
ganization in England in 1875. Since that
time every EngliSh-Speaking nation Of the
world, she said, has it's branches Of the
society, and in the colonies Of England ana
In India there are about 10000 members.
graphic description Of the philan.hropic
work done by the society was given by
Mrs Roberts, in speaking Of the summer
home Of the Girls Society of the diocese
os New York. The members of this So
ciety, said Mrs. Roberts, were boarded for
the sum of So a week, while non-members
secured the same accommodations for 81
per week. This summer home is located o.
the north shore of Long Island and excel
lent bathing facilities are at hand, while
everything looking to the comfort of the
girls has been added.
The object of the society, while distinctly
missionary organization, is to aid young
girls from twelve to sixteen in moral and

them a high ideal of womanhood

The production Of a lOghOuse by Kansas
at the Louisiana Purchase Fair at St Louis
would be much more unique than logical.
Kansas never was log-cabin State II had

The State has never had the sort OF popu-

st. Louis Republlc.
Louis Pierce, who resides near Conklin,
Mich, Is one of the few men now living
who were employed on the government sur
vey through the West. Pierce crossed the
great plains in 1874 with General Fremont
and Kit Carson, when the survey was made
to the Willamette valley, in Oregon. The
surveying party was in charge of General
Fremont, and Carson, the greatest or all
Western scouts, went as guide. Pierce was
then strapping boy of sixteen years. He
was CarsOnS aid
The country through which they passed
was full OF big game and Indians. Pierce
attributes the expeditions freedom from
attack to Carson's sagacity and his in1u-
ence over the redmen. Only once did they
have a severe brush with them, and that
was disastrous to the Indians. One day as
Carson and Pierce were scouting in adj
vance of the party and looking for con-
venient camping ground, they were at
tackled by a party of Indians armed with
bows and arrows The two made for a
bunch of sage brush and shrubbery, and
with this as cover. they turned on the
enemy. There were sixteen riderless ponies
when the affair ended
On the plains and in the foothills they
found plenty of buffalo and antelope, and
in the mountains grizzly bears were not I'M
common. Il never killed one. though, said
Pierce. Them critters was out of my line.
In the first place, didn't carry lead enough
so that | felt safe. man can shoot into
one of them pesky critters all day and still
Pierce says that the experience which
made the strongest impression on him was
the scarcity of water in part of the coun-
try through which they travelled during the
dry season On one occasion they were
without water for three days and had to
carry bullets under their tongues TO allay
thirst. Toward evening of the third day,
when hope was almost gone they came 10 a
little stream and with what strength they
had left hurried toward it. The water
would probably have been the death of
some of them at least had not General Ere
mont, with drawn revolver, compelled them
TO cool off a little before drinking.
After returning from this trip the young
scout wandered back TO his old home IN
Ohio A few years later he married and in
1853 he moved 10 Michigan and settled in
Chester township. Ottawa county. about
twenty miles from Grand Rapids. He did a
great deal Of exploring and prospecting
through the State, especially along the line
of the proposed state road from Grand
Rapids 10 Traverse City.
The old hunter still lives on the home
stead i'm Ottawa county and has with him
one son. who cultivates the one-hundred-
acre farm which Pierce in his younger days
hewed out OF the forest. I'm spite OF his
seVenty-three years he is still vigorous and
last summer helped cultivate the farm. The
old habits have not all deserted him yet.
and during the hunting season he takes his
place with some Of the younger generation
and makes every shot count. as he did
when he journeyed across the great plains
with Carson.

LOCAL PRODUCE MARKET
DEALERS THINK THEY DIDN'T DO
ENOUGH BUSINESS.
Prices Arc Firm and High and Look
TO BE HI&her-POuItry in Liberal
SuppIy-The Trade i'm Grains.

In the week ended on Dec. II trade was
Disappointing in volume. Two rainy days
and snowstorm on Saturday were among
the drawbacks TO business. Besides this,
as Is Usual with the approach of the holt
days i'm some lines, trade falls OFF percep-
tibly. Dealers i'm fancy notions. confec-
tioneries and the like are very busy, but
with the dry-goods houses. the produce
merchants and on Commission row trade
has been rather slow. Prices on Commits
sion row have been well maintained. and
there is hardly an article that is lower
than week ago. while several are higher.
Retailers are complaining that trade has
fallen off since Thanksgiving. but this does
not affect prices. which. on the articles
most used. rule steady. Irish potatoes.
apples and all fruits and vegetables are
selling slowly. but IL is thought that with
miIder and fair weather business will i'm
prove and there will be no room for COM
plant. Flour rules easier. with the weaker
tone to the wheat market, but other prod
ucts of wheat corn and oats are firm and
move rapidly, as they are taking the place
OF potatoes to some extent. Sugars and cof-
fees are firmer and all staple groceries rule
STEADY and firm. Druggists report trade
good Linseed oil is stronger. but other
lines are unchanged There is no i'm
provement in the poultry and game mar
kets, while prices are practically the same.
The supply Of game and Of hens and chick
is large. Turkeys are not so abundant.
but farmers are supposed to be holding
them for the holidays. The supply of fresh
eggs is more liberal and prices rule easier,
but dealers are not inclined to make con-
cessions, as they believe weather condi-
tons will improve the market soon and
force up prices. Butter, if choice is firm
and in good request. Poor stock sells
slower and at low figures. Dried fruits
Oh the Pacific coast are higher and dealers
here are disposed To follow the example.
Present prices rule strong.

Mans Pillow His Residence.

London Chronicle.
Where does a man live when he is on a
boundary? The old problem has cropped
up again in the revision courts One re-
Visng barrister solved II by ruling in two
cases that man lives in that parish where
his front door is situated. But what If the
Imaginary line ran under the middle OF the
step and came out at the back of the
house? Something very like this actually
exists at Norwich. I'm Cheshire and as q
consequence the occuDier of a small cot
tage has for many years claimed. and. we
believe, actually exercised. the right OF
voting in two Parliamentary divisions.
Perhaps the best general rule for settling
boundary disputes is one which was fOrmu-
lated at the Clerkenwell sessions in 1916.
4 man who lived in two parishes" became
a pauper. whereupOn "A dispute arose as TO
which should maintain him. Models OF the
house and the bed on which he slept were
laid before the court that IL might ascer-
tain how much Of his body lay In each par
ish. In the end IL was held that he was
settled" where his head C'being the no
bier part lay.
