Deadly Common Plants.

The things that give the most pleas

the greatest pain Among flowers, for
instance. the beautiful snowdrop, the
hyacinth. ionduil and narcissus are
all poisonous, and to eat the smallest
part OF the root of either of them
would produce fatal results, while the
juices of the leaves will cause violent
vomiting.
The berries of the yew tree have
killed many people. and the opium

Business Through the Mails.

In times Of prosperity there are al
ways chances for the CRATER. During
the past ten years has been the era
of the get-riCh-quick man. No sBoner

other takes its place Thanks to the
ever diligent postal inspectors, and an
uurelenting government, the schemerS
are not so plentiful as few years ago
For some years a number of supposed
legitimate grain and stock brokers
thriyed in both eastern aud western
cities. These were active in soliciting
through the mails, and through local
offices the business OF small investors.
The millions of money gained from
the unsuspecting people will never be
known. I'm New York, Chicago. ST.

Buying stocks in a fair market is a
risky business. but when there are
schemers to stack the cards against

BEAN POT NOT IN FAVOR.
Boston Women Objected to It as EN-.
blem Of Homecoming Week.

Boston is not to be represented by
a fiaring red label and pot of pre-
sumably superb Boston baked beans,
says the Post of that city. That is,
only partially will she be represented
thus.
Certain of the clubWomen of the city
have faithfully considered the city,
reputation of culture and quality and
have decided that it would be folly to
send out stickers giving the vulgar
world to understand that our culture
lay in the baking of beans.
Delegates from all the women's
patriotic societies met Wednesday
afternoon in the Twentieth Century
club and discussed things connected
with the celebration of Old Home week
In Boston.
The Indian sign was put on the
mayors pet baked-bean stickers.
Il was suggested that a sticker bear
ing a representation of Faneuil hall be
used instead and at this point Thomas
Anderson of Mayor Fitzgerald's pub
licity bureau arose and made haste to
explain that the quick ones had been
quicker to see that the baked-beans
stickers had fallen fiat and that stick
ers of a more dignified character were
in preparation.
Neat little bundles of the pot and
beans stickers were passed around,
but the delegates gracefully repudiated
them by saying that they guessed they

Lucid.

Finally Archimedes, who for an hour
had been patiently guiding the mind
of his pupil through a demonstration
of an abstruse mathematical problem,
was rewarded by the CLEAN of inteli-

Not according to his talents and OPP
portunities, but to the use made of
them; not to the harvest that is
reaped, but to the seed sown; not ac-

won, but according to his labor. THIS

UNITY OF INTERESTS.
Relationship Of Residents Of Rural
Communities to the Home Town.

Live and let live is policy that
has come down through the ages and
is an expression of the Golden Rule
only in different words. There is in
born in man a desire for self-preserVa-
ton. 1t is a law of life, and to this
desire can be attributed that which IS
considered selfishness within us. saw
age man has little regard for the
rights and properties of others. He
lacks the sense of equity and justice
and is guided solely by the brutal in
stincts Intelligent man realizes that
all his fellow creatures are entitled
to the same rights he would enjoy
himself. Therefore where the CMis-
tian spirit is found, there can be look
ed for such equity as gives all an
equal chance to gain livelihood and
to enjoy the products of their labor
There should be the greatest haN
mony among the citizens OF every
community The interest of all the
classes comprising a city or district
should be considered identical. 1t has
towns have been built up by har-
monious and united effort of all the
people composing it. In these days
wnen there are evils to combat, when
oppressive trusts exist that are fac
tors in unequal distribution of wealth,
it is all important that the masses IN
each and every community unite and
work in harmony for the protection
and betterment of local conditions. 1t
it to be regretted that in many agri-
cultural communities there is lack
OF harmony between what is called
the business interests and the produc-
ers of crops Different reasons may
be advanced for this condition, but the
most common cause is a misunder-
standing on the part of the citizens
as to the relationhip that should eX-
list between them. II is wrong for
the teachings that go forth that the
farmers interests are different from
those of the merchant, or that the
merchants interests differ from
farmers OF the community. 1t
is also an erroneous ldea Illdl tle
town is alone for the townspeople
and the country districts for the farm
err. Is it not true that the merchant
IS dependent upon the farmer for his
support? And j.: is equally true that
the town is an important thing to the
farmer. 1t is convenience to him
and he is as deeply interested in all
that pertains to it, to its advancement
and the betterment OF its public inSti-
buttons. its streets, its parks and alt
as are the people who reside within
the town. Tie merchants should real
ize how important the farmer is to
them. and the farmer should De

is for him as veil as for those who re-

less antagouism between the resi-

of the town 5he better it will be for
the whole community. There is a
unity OF interests that cannot be
ignored, and here is a common field

prosperous, cannot be a great nation.
