The Conductors Revenqe.

A well dressed man entered an Or.
ange street car the other day, accord
ing to a story that is going the rounds
of the street car men, and handed the
conductor a ten dollar bill. The con.
ductor was unable to change it, and
he let the man ride free. The next
day the man presented the same bill,
and again the conductor was unable
to change it, for the man had evident.
ly found a time when he would be
sure to catch the conductor without
much change.
"I'll fix you," thought the conductor,
and he obtained $40 worth of nickels
and was ready for the man when next
day he flashed the bill. The man took
the matter good naturally and soon
left the car, his pockets fairly bullying
with the nickels.
The conductor was more than pleas.
ed with his coup until next day, whe
he learned that the bill was worthless

Scots In American History.

1t is noteworthy fact in American
history that Of the four members of
Washington's cabinet Knox of Massa-
chusetts, the only New Englander, was
a Scotch-I rishman, Alexander Hamil-
ton of New York was Scotch-French-
man, Thomas jefferson was Of Welsh
descent, and the fourth, Edmund Ran
dolph, claimed among his ancestors
the Scotch Earls of Murray. New York
also furnished the first chief justice of
the United States, John Jay, who was
a descendant of French Huguenots,
while the second chief justice, John
Rutledge, was Scotch-Irish as were
also Wilson and Iredell, two of the
original associate justices; third,
Blair was of Scottish origin. John
Marshall, the great chief justice, was,
like jefferson, of Scotch and Welsh
descent.-Charles r. Hanna's "Celt In

The Pianist's Vacation.

An interesting story has got into
circulation concerning a famous pi-
anist. Unable to tear himself al
together away from his art while
enjoying a rest in Switzerland, he
had a piano taken to secluded
chalet in a wood and every day
went there alone to solace himself.
By chance one day some one strayed
into. the wood and, hearing the
music, spent a pleasant hour drink
ing in. the sounds from the closely
suffered chalet. Next day he went
again with some friends. At the
end of week the virtuoso discov-
cred that big crowd was enjoying
his performance. At first he felt
inclined to blame this intrusion on
his solitude, but better thoughts
prevailed, and during the remainder
of his stay he threw open the shut
tiers and played his very best.-Lon-

Aud this truth should be the inspiration
of our work. And just 80 far as we take
to heart these lessons and recognize God s
leadership shall zoe have success. 1t is
the vision of Gods leadership that we
need and that will save us from petty
meanness and selfishness. The business
of every Christian is to discover the laws
and lines of Gods procedure, fall in with
them In whole hearted conservation; and
then rest assured that Gods purpose
shall be achieved
And so this morning say to you as
think of the work of reconstruction of
the next few months let every hour be
filed with conservation to the coming
contamination and let the light OF victory
and success be the inspiration OF our pres
emit work. Hours will come to us dur
ing the next few months full of sadness,
full of doubt, full of anxiety, full OF
questionings, but Oh let us remember
that Gods wall must be built, his work
must be done, and his purpose accom-
plished. Do not therefore sill down In the
aimless impotence Of nerveless despair,
bat inspired by the hope that never dies,
| pray you to rise to fuller accomplish
ment and greater endeavor. Do not en-
ter into partnership with the pessimists,
out renetn DEF thho al ,h'pRs arc so'l-
ously possible to the optimistic believer.
Last Tuesday heard Commander Robert
e. Peary tell the story of his trip to the
North Pole. And If "a man can devote
the best 90 wears of his life to work ct
this kind, can't you and | devole the
next few months to the building OF our
own town. and the beautifing of our own
streets? l pray you with all the earnest
ness of my soul to stand up together, to
help bear the burden, and then when
the cry goes out that the wall is finished
that the church is built, and the town is
placed on higher level than it ever was
before, having borne the burden together
and shall rejoice together, and the re-
ward will be great.

lesson In our work to-day that the con-
| secratiOn of a worker in church, or
| community, or society Is manifested by
discipline aud obedience, by waiting az
| well as moving, by standing as well as
marching, by being still as we'll as by
quick movements. The man In our
church life who is always putting himself
to the front and trying to do more than
anybody else, but who knows nothing OF
patience and quiet waiting, is not the
consecrated man. 1t is sometimes more
in keeping with the spirit of consecra-
ton to be still and silent, than to be full
Of noise and tumult. Conservation often
means the quiet capacity for being still.
cause of their obedience, because OF their
conservation, the wall was finished.
The next letter Is another &C" and
that stands for CONSISTENCY. What Is
consistency Consistency means that
which Is true to principle under all
circumstances. And the consistency of
these men is manifested by the fact, not
merely that they built, but that they also
matched. AS we see them with sword
and trowel, as we see them turning a
deaf ear to all suggestions that for one
single hour they should cease their work,
we see that cohesive principle which
keeps every man at the post of duty and
keeps the whole company at the wall I'M
til the last stone is laid and the wall
finished. And there is nothing we need
more than this-the spirit of consistency,
that not only enables us to pray but to
practice, that not only enables us on the
Sabbath day to keep at the post of duty,
but enables us during the six days of the
week to live in the power of those things
we profess on the Sunday. 1t is recorded
of these men in the story that they made
their prayer TO God and then set their
watch. never read those words without
thinking of Cromwelrs general order to
his soldiers ''Trust in God and keep the
powder dry" And unless our express
sions of worship on the Sabbath pass into
the actuaIities of every day life we shall
never build up Gods wall; unless we
make our prayer to God and then set our
watch, our contribution to the work will
be very small and very valueless.
Looking again at those busy wall build
ers and remembering that the next letter
is "E" the next thing that arrests our
attention is their EARNEsTNEss. The
people had mind to work" The pas
sion of this work was in their hearts;
the vision of the completed wall was
before them. AMI they bent themselves
to the task in hand and thus they had
success. Notice particularly that the

Princess Won Bulow, the wife Of the
recently resigned imperial chancellor.
Her interest in the arduous work of
her famous husband is of the deepest

the various problems of state. Her
fondness for the prince is, indeed, pro-

MATTERS IN MAINE,

In tho 433 Oranges In tho Pine Tree
State There Arc $4,000 Members.
One Grange Has Membership Of
1000 Maine Favors Proportional
Representation and Commends Its
Masters Attitude In National Grange.
State Master Stetson opened the an
nnal meeting of the Maine state grange
with notably important address In
which he emphasized the need OF "a
fine, strong, abiding sense Of personal
responsibility of all members in order
to achieve the highest success In
grange work." He hit the present
caucus methods of the political parties
a hard rap. The people should take
this matter Of nominating candidates
for public Office into their own hands.
1--WE may continue to ratify party
nominations made by the bosses or we
may control the elections" he said
eve will choose the latter alternative
when we come to realizing sense OF
our power ana duty.
Resolutions were adopted on a va
riety Of subjects, but those OF wider
Importance were the following: Oppos-
ing the reduction Of the import duty
on sweet cream from cents per
pound to cents per gallon; opposition
was expressed to the repeal of the
law which places tax of 10 cents on
oleo colored in imitation Of butter;
parcels post was favored; the price of
21a cents for corn sold to corn pack
ing companies was demanded for the
1910 crop; it was recommended that
the masters address and officers re-
ports be discussed in the various sub
ordinate oranges, and the Maine
grange favored proportional represen.
tation in the national grange.
We quote from a Bangor paper on
this point, which says: "The report OF
the committee on the good of the Or.
der embodied in that report the princ1-
pie which the largest Of the state
oranges have endeavored unsuccess-
fully to get before the national grange
number of members. The attitude OF
the national grange in this matter and
the disposition to retain in the offices
the men who have held them for so
long and who are accused of running
affairs of that organization according
to their own liking regardless Of the
consequences to the Order in general
have been severely criticised, and
resolution was passed at this session
upholding the attitude ofSC. s. Stetson
when a delegate to the national grange.
The officers of the national grange
have paper which supports their po-
sition in all matters and receives
large amount of money from the ma
tional grange treasury each year. In
the state of Michigan, also in the in
surgent list, there is published paper
which does not support those officers,
and at the last day of the Maine state
grange meeting this paper was adopted
as the official organ Of the Maine
grange.
Secretary e. III. Libby reported fol-
the year ended Oct. /, 1909, that there
were 433 oranges in the state with &c..
230 paid up members. Seventy-one
oranges have membership Of over
200 each, Houlton grange leading with
1000. The receipts Of the secretary's
Office were $12,11610, and the balance
