and allow the concern to grow to the
point where the earnings added to the
capital would equal the investment
and the association would thus be re-
lieved of debt and then the co-opera-
tive principle could become effective
without crippling the association. The
effect of the action taken was to post
pone cooperation for the present.
1t would doubtless be better if in
these associations stock to the full
amount of the capital required could
be sold in the beginning and so avoid
debt, but this seems to be always inn
practicable, and questions like the
above will come up. The way to meet
this is to consider the ultimate good
of the institution and not the question
of immediate profit and it seems to us
the Lewis association did the correct
thing. The president carefully kept a
record of exactly how each person
voted on the main question SO that If
any one should forget he can re-
fresh his memory from the record.

A SPECIAL SESSION.
Lewis Farmers Meet to Discuss an
Important Question.

Lewis, Kans., June 28.-The stock
Stock Association of Lewis held a
special session Monday to consider
the question Of disposing of the earn
ings of the plant for the past year. It
will be remembered that the annual
report showed earnings of something
over $1,000. The board of directors
have power in the matter but as there
was division of sentiment among
the stockh olders it was considered adj
visable to hold meeting of the stock
holders that the question might be
freely and fully discussed in all its
bearings. President Yaggy called the
roll at 800 p. m. and found quorum
present. AS a matter of fact there
was quite good majority of the
stockholders present. Mr.. Yaggy
stated that the officers wished to learn
the views of those present on the ques-
ton of disposiDg of the surplus. o.
". Ray took the floor for the PROPOSE
tion of declaring dividend on the
amount of business done. He stated
that he had sold stock on the rebate
proposition. Back OF this PROPOSE
ton, however, was the question of the
policy of the concern. 1t seems that
shey are doing business requiring a
capital of about $40, 900 on paid up
capital of about So, 900. To make the
dividend would require the raising of
quite sum of money. Mr.. Ray wish
ed to meet this proposition by selling
more stock. He contended earnestly
for his point and evidently was con-
WINGED that it was the best thing to do,
but vote showed that the majority
of those present believed that the best
thing to do for the interests of all con-
cerned was to leave the earnings in
the business this year so as to en-
nance the value of the stock issued

Noticing one day that two of the
stones were loose in their settings the
lady instead of taking them to Bos-
ton firm, foolishiy took them to a
New York jeweler to have them fas-
tened. Before intrusting them to him
she counted the stones from the bot
tom of the cross to the top and from
the bottom to the center aud then to
the right then from the bottom to the
center and to the left, the result of
each count being II.
An ingenious but INSCRIPTIONS en-
ploye of the New York jeweler alb
stracted two of the stones from the
cross. Yet so cleverly was this done
that neither the jeweIer nor the lady
detected the theft. Some years latera
Sherlock Holmes in Boston society
called the attention of the lady's hus-
band to the fact that two of the stones
were missing from the cross. The
lady, however, counted them in the
presence of her husband as she had
done before she took the cross to the
jeweler. The result of the count was
II, the same as before. The question
now puzzling Boston society is: How
did the thief purfoin the two stones
and still preserve an arrangement
whereby the count was still II?
