THE TWO PLATFORMS.

Louist lille Post, Indt Dem.
The distinction in the two platforms is
this: The republican party interprets its
own platform by the public record it has
made during the past twelve years; the
democratic platform is "the substance OF
things hoped for, the evidence Of things
nosVsssn". The Bryan party makes its
appeal more to the faith and the credulity
OF the people than to their judgment. 1t
does not promise changes in the general
conduct OF the government, but it hesitates
to acknowledge real progress along the
lines upon which the government has been
so long proceeding.

INDOOR LIFE AND LACK OF EXERCISE
CAUSE PILES.

More women than men have piles. 1t
is because they take so little outdoor ex-
ercise and are so often constipated. There
is stagnation of blood in the lower
bowel, and no amount of cutting or treat
ment with ointments and suppositories
will remove this cause.
DIR. Leonhardt's -Roid, an internal,
tablet medicine, will permanently cure
any case of piles, removing the cause.

basis for great exertions, either men
tai or physical in later life. There are
many men in public life today that
are carrying heavy burdens that they
could not carry were 1t not for early
experiences in the country and upon
the farm.
The success of these men is great
inducement for boys to leave the farm
for other avocations. They read of
their great achievements and have
desire to win equal glory and promi-
nence but in nearly every instance
they would do better to remain upon
the farm According to statistics So
per cent of those working farms own
their own farms free from incum-
brance, which percentage is not ap-
preached in any other avocation.
1t would be we'll for the boys now
upon the farms of the country II the
parents would give them working
interest in the farm and thereby at
tract the boy to it. Comparatively few
of those who leave the farm for city
employment make a success and COM
paratively few of those who remain
upon, the farm make failure. The
farm still offers the only really indie
pendent livelihood. A great jurist
once said: Civilization begins and
ends with the plow." Health and COM
fort are the greatest requisites for a
happy life and these can be found
more surely upon the farm than any
where else.

FARM HOME DEDICATION.

Not in New Jersey alone, which is
his home state, but in many another
state, is the name of Mortimer White
head a familiar one. In the early
years of the Order he was lecturer of
the National Grange and is still doing
valiant work for that great farmers
organization. His latest effort for
the good of the Order" as he puts it,
is the writing and publication of rit-
ualistic ceremony for the dedication
of farm homes.
This ceremony of dedication is to be
used out of doors, on the lawn or
grounds near the home. The arrange
ment of officers stations is the same
as when the Grange is in session in
the hall. The home to be dedicated
has a banner or streamer hung upon
the porch, and on this banner the
name is concealed until the time of
unwilling occurs Members of the Or
der and visitors are grouped about the
space set apart for the officers. The
idea is to have the farm homes named
and then dedicated by this impressive
ceremony.
We anticipate that this ritual will
be adopted at the next meeting of the
National Grange and then be given
officially to the Order for use. We
cannot explain further in detail, but
will only add that some of the pas
sages contained in the ritual are most
exalted in sentiment, beautiful in ex-
preston and in every way worthy of
the object to which the writer dedi-
Gates the work.

AT THE COMMENCEMENT.

The president of the board of edu.
cation had risen to present the diplo-
mas. He had never officiated in this
capacity, and was little shaken.
"Class of 1908" he said, ''you have
gained the threshold of life. You have

The crowd Uttered, and the mem
Eers of the class trembled for the
speaker and the success of the exer.
cises.

gathering his wits for fresh start,

Laughter rose in the house, and the
other board members held their hands
over their mouths, showing very red
faces.

time fairly in the throes of stage
fright, 81 meant to say that you are
now in the hole for life!''
The crowd shrieked with amuse'
ment, and one of the board members
fell from his chair, bowling with glee
The presidents eyer rolled in a fine
frenzy, and he ran his fingers through
his hair.

MISS suMMERTIME.

Miss Summertime is smiling still
And waits with lovelit glance
For one more bloom-breath of the hill
And one more sweetheart dance;
Her skirts of green are fading fast,
But she will soon put on
The purple of the changing leaf
The crimson of the dawn
Miss Summertime is singing yet
AS one you can't restrain;
AS one whose heart will not forget,
Though parting bringeth pain;
She hears the tinkling fairy bells;
The fiddles-ah, my sweet,
Be mine while moonlight fills the dells
And music stirs the feet.
Miss Summertime is looking back
Her golden hair is gray;
The dry twigs where she wanders crack,
Her heart is sad today.
But once more on the hills, my love,
Oh turn to kiss awhile
With all the Indian in thy blood,
And April in thy smile!

cOUNTRY-BRED BOYS.

The men who have made their mark
in the world and established reputa-
ton that will live after they have de-
parted have been with rare exceptions
those who were raised upon the farm.
This applies to those in professional
life and to those who have been lead
ers in great industrial enterprises. 1t
also applies to the men in the army
and navy, for the officers of the latter
have recently announced that the best
sailors are the "corn-fed' boys from
the rural sections.
The reasons for this are apparent,
says Mirror and Farmer. From early
childhood the boy in the country, rich
or poor, is required to do manual work
He breathes pure air and lives on

opment is good and this is the true

 In Arizona there are many places where the tertiary rocks are founc prominently cropping. but there has been little development where they have been given attention. In Sono- "a and Chihuahua, Mexico, there is a wide extent of the mountain region covered with the lndesite flow. and later flow of the basalt and lava, which tops the andesite Big produc- ing mines of silver and gold have been and are being worked at good profit. Such camps as Ocampo, Concheno, Do- lores, Parral. Dos Cabezas. Las Chis- pas, Tigre, and others too numerous to mention in this article, are ana have been producing thousands of tons of rich ore. The mines go deep on accoutn of their being in the high elevations of the uprer section of the Sierra Madre. The west side is brok- en by extensive erosion, and the form ing of deep canons has resulted in ex- posing the formation in many places to a depth of at least three thousand feet below the higher part of the range
 The mines developed and produc- ing are among the most important ID the world, and the whole country of fers the best chance for successful prospecting that can be found any where. The richest ores are found associated with the rhyolite dikes ih the andesites. The minerals consist of silver sulphide CT argentite, Ste phanite. Cerrargenite and polybasite, with the ores and bromides of silver. Gold values accompany in proportion of five to two. and in some instances higher The Chispas mine in the So- nora river valley is shipping ore, car rying as much as 20 ounces of gold per ton with the silver values. It has paid millions in dividends. the TigTe mine has more than five million ,.ol- lars worth of ore or ened. and is pro ducing regularly. It Is not necessa- rily to say more about these mines, as this article is only ptended to call the attention of the miners to the op- portunities offered them In the area covered by the same formation in Mexico, and which is surely the best field to prospect for big mines.

The market conrinled to snow goou improvement from the very opening, but toward the close there was sonl. slight profit taking. and at the close stocks were more or less at about the sane price as the opening. The New York market showed excellent sup- port the entire day and the majority of stocks closed at about the high Noint for the day. The Boston mar ket is good. The demand for Superior ( Pittsburg was good. but at times it had tendency to show weakness. The closing. however, showed strength at $500. Greene Cananea was about the weakest stock on the list, closing at s12.00, but at this price I am in clined to believe but very little stock could be bought. Dsnn Arizona is also In good demand q; s4.62 bid, with sales at S4.75. Black Mountain sun remains firm and at the close there were sales made at s4. This stock win without doubt shoS excellent strength in the very near future.
 Personally believe that everything leads to higher prices all along the list and see nothing to prevent bet ter prices
