those who are not members sometimes
find their tobacco plants destroyed.
According to the reports, the prose-
cutting attorneys of the tobacco-growing
district are as backward about pro-
ceeding against illegal acts of the
growers in the association as these
attorneys used to be about fighting
the old-fashioned trusts and monopolies
before the era of trust-fighting set
in. Down in Texas, where hotel
sheets must be at least nine feet long
and where a new law makes it an
offense for any merchant to handle
trust made goods, the growers of cot
tonss are gettirg along pretty well in
their organization of an association to
force up the price of cotton; while
over in Minnesota the dairymen have
formed an organization to sell their
products through a central authority
at st. Paul. The organization has no
designs on the pocketbooks of con-
sumers of dairy products. Certainly
not. 1t only desires to find a better
market and improve the general con-
ditions TO the business-a sort of ethi-
cal society to advance the interests of
the profession.
1t is dreadful. indeed, to look for
ward to time when prosecuting at
torneys will be called on by the con-
sumers of farm products to break up
combinations and trusts among the
crop growers, but after the prosecutors
get through with all the big, soulless
corporations, and the working agree
ments among business men are shat
tered and totally terminated it may be
necessary to break up the farmers

eat and wear.--Tacoma Ledger.

timore for May.
1t is easy to imagine the pride
which children would naturally feel
in that they too are a part of their
city and are doing their share in
making it more cleanly, more healthy
and more beautiful, and aside from
any practical results that may be ac-
complished, it will also tend to in
still in the minds of the young an
interest in civic affairs and will teach
them to be ever on the alert to make
suggestions which may improve the
city. This spirit once engondered
and property fostcrcd. there is no
doubt it will have a stron" tendency
and wholesome effect in producing
better and more desirable citizens of
our sons and daughters.

The Drip Of the Rain.

The stars have curtained their light
in clouds
And the moon has slipped from sight;
And only the sound of the rain is
heard
Through the fragrant summer night.
Over the slOping and mOss-grown
caves,
Drenching the lilies and sweet green
leaves,
Filling the night with its low refrain
Is heard the drip Of the summer rain.
The darkness, soft as velvet robe,
Shuts the cares of the world away;
And the south wind blows the slant
ing rain
Into sheets of silver spray,
And up through the darkness, warm
and wet,
Comes the scent of pansies and
mignonette,
Bearing the message of hope again,
In this peaceful hour of rest and rain.
'Tis gracious gift that the night be-
slows,
For the summer shower brings
The dreams Of peace, and breath
5g of balm
On the sweep of it's dusky wings.
End the hearts that sorrow forget to
weep,
On the shadowy border-lands Of sleep;
And the voice of care and the sting
of pain
Are lost in the drip of the summer
rain.

Instinctively he pushed her firmly
en- to the platform of the car, for
safety, but did not relinquish her
hand. Die Tante stood ready to jump
of in case of need. Voices called to
them in warning as the car gathered
such headway that George was oblig-
ed to run.
All their past meetings and partings
were in the clasp of his hand, and he
would not let go. His hat far behind,
he followed, like Merlin, unreckoning,
on the CLEAN, on the light from her
eyes.
"Ah love. 1 cannot" came from him
without his wish.
Elizabeth bent towards him from
the car. She had thought, thus
far, only Of the miracle of his pres
ence. Now she realized that there
was danger to face For her to loose
his hand was impossible, so firm was
his hold.
For her to jump of-no. Yet if
ne were hurt! Never had his safety
been SO imperative.
There was no time to lose. "Get
on, quick" She called, loud enough
to conquer the noise Of wheels and
pulled him forward and up with all her
strength.
George came suddenly to his
senses. With a brave laugh a2d a
firm foot he challenged the gods and
gained the platform.

We think the railroads ought to stop all their local trains at all stations, and one general bill ought to be passed covering the whole case.

In Memory of Grandpapa Boon.

The death angel came to our grand papa's home one day, And filled our hearts with pain.
 Oh. is there balm that can heal the wound or cheer our hearts again? And we gaze at the shadow of the beautiful oak tree in front,
 Close by our cottage gate. Our hearts do ache when we see
 the empty chair and our grand papa not there.
 4 shadow has fallen across our way, dark as the midnight hours. And our dear grandpapa has gone away to dwell amid heavenly bowers. tnbidden tears come into our eyes when We see his vacant chair: Oh! how our longing hearts do prize ringlet of his hair:
 And we hear again his cheerful voice in our slumbers so it seems: Then how our bursting hearts rejoice, but, oh. it is only a dream. Our Heavenly Father called grand papa far up above the skies:
 And we shall see him after while in his home in Paradise.
 We may tarry but few short years in this sad world below:
 And then away from sorrow and tears, to our beautiful home we'll go. Our eyes the Lord in his bounty shall see,
 And grandpapa close up by the throne, there waiting and watch ing for you and for me, To come to His beautiful home. Then all will be clear,
 The night will be gone. And we'll know how good and wise the Lord was
