spect were adopted:
Whereas, 1t has pleased the Supreme

John Kitchens, and
Whereas, 1t is but just that fitting
recognition of his many virtues should
be had; therefore, be it
Resolved, That in the passing away
of Brother Kitchens from this life, the
Foresters of America have lost one of
its most warm-hearted, pure, exem-
plary and valuable members; that by
his fidelity to right, justice, humanity
and true manhood, he well exemplified
the principles of our order.
Resolved, That while we know how
vain are words to assuage the grief that
near and dear friends must feel at such
loss, yet we extend to them our sim
cere sympathy in the sad bereavement
which has fallen upon them, and we
would point to the record of the true
and affectionate husband, the kind
father, the genial and considerate COM
panion and neighbor, the good citizen,
the Industrious, true and just man
which our late brother has been in his
life.
Resolved, That these resolutions be
spread upon the records of the Court,
and copy thereof be transmitted to
the family of our deceased brother, and
that the same be published in the pap

have uncommon ideas, but they will
not take the trouble to work them into
practicable form. A clever little Bel

originated new wagon appliance
which will be of definite value to both
horses and men. She was watching
some animals struggling to move
heavily laden wagon with its wheels
stuck in the mud.

sort or revolving axle might be invalu-
able in such case She went home
and with paper and scissors put her
theory into miniature practice, SAYS

Fad Business Instinct.

story: "A farmer noticed customers
in the grocer's shop picking over the
celery to find the best looking
punches, and it occurred to him to
take more pains with his celery and
see II it would bring a better price.
He bought some pink tape and tied
the celery with it in neat lunches
and found that 1t sold quickly and
brought more money. After that he
marketed all his produce in the most
attractive manner. putting labels on
his fruit baskets with the name of
the variety, wiping his apples, select
ing and labelling his tomatoes, al
ways treating his fruit and vegetables
as If they were worthy of distinction.
The fame of his produce grew, he en-
larged his business and became a
wealthy man all because of the pink
tape on the celery"

French Rags High Priced.

ager of large boarding house a Ger.
tain price for bag of wornout linen.
These rags are worth more than
that, said the shrewd landlord. Il
run several houses in this neighbor-
hood, and all are occupied exclusively
by French guests"
The dealer apparently considered
that remark sufficiently explanatory.
He cast a hasty glance upon the con-
tents of the bag. then raised the price
And he could well afford to raise it
too said the landlord Even at that
rate he will make money OFF the
things. French rags the world over
bring higher price than any other
The reason why? French people wear
better quality of linen and their
