the best in the State
Grange then passed to open session
ami Mr.. Somervil!e CT Brookline, Mass,
was introduced, who presented a plan
he has for cooperating in selling po-
tatOGS.
Mr.. Somerville is promoter and
wants the Patrons in the county to
take holi of the matter and arrange
the details to suit themselves while he
will attend to the disposal of the ship
ments. Of course this is a big propo-
sition which would take some time to
work out. but which has some attrac-
tive features
flans similar to this have been
thought Of by the farmers before and
tho Grange is just the body to take
hold of it when anything is done. If
Mr.. Som"rville's plans We're adopted
the farmers would get the retail price
for their potatoes instead of having the
crop pass through the hands of so
many middle men. The matter was
discussed briefly.
The lecturer presented Il short pro-
gram as follows: Music, choir; reading
Ethel Smith readings, Ethel Gilman
Albert Spaulding. George Eastman.
Grange vas closed in due form in the
fifth degree.

TOO DEEP FOR ENGLISHMAN.
Neat Bit Of Wit with Which His In
sular Brain Was Unable
to Cope.

A young woman of Irish descent
went to a tea that was given on re-
cent Sunday afternoon for the artists
of one of the opera houses. After she
had listened to the babel of tongues
in the drawing-room for a while, for
the singers were talking in French,
German, and Italian. she went into
the library, where one Of her acquaint-
ances was presiding over the tea
table.
With a beautiful assumption of flut-
tering embarrassment, the young
woman leaned over the table and fall
tered out: Il don't know how came
to do 1t, but do you know only came
with eight languages to-day, when
meant to bring II, I've looked in
my muff for the others, but they are
not there, and do you know, feel
positively embarrassed without them
all" And with this she went on her
way
Now, the woman at the tea table
thought this a pretty good bit of wit,
and when young Englishman came
up to her to have his cup reiilled she
told it to him He looked at her
blankly and then said with a puzzled
air:
What an extraordinary place to
carry them! Do you think she meant
it?"

only has time to note that it is tie
