Is in harmony with the irresistible
forces Of human growth and evolution.
Had Grant died in the field would
that have meant the permanent dis
ruption Of the Union? His loss would
have cost battles, but it could not have
prevented the ultimate triumph of his
cause. So If the Progressive leader
had fallen, there would have been pro
found sorrow for the passing of q
loyal friend and leader. but no feeling
of hopelessness.
If this seems cold and calculating
view let us say that we believe it is
the view Theodore Roosevelt would
have his followers take. We believe
that had he lost his life the epitaph he
would wish to be written of him would
be that he had served WE'LL but that,
as he himself said in the face of death,
the cause would go on without him.
This was what moved him to that
supreme proof of devotion last Mon
day night. This has been his spirit
since the beginning. He showed it
when, confronting the formidable nom
ination of Governor Wilson, he decid-
ed to make the fight. He said he felt
like soldier under orders: If he was
summoned even to lead forlorn hope
he must obey.
And this, we believe, is the view Of
the great body of Progressives They
look upon Roosevelt as an unequaled
figure of brave and sagacious leader
ship; they are profoundly grateful
for the strength that he gives to the
movement, and they rejoice that he is
spared to head the march to victory
But they know the cause would not
have died with hin. because it is
founded on the, eternal principles Of
justice, because 1t is the cause O
| humanity

Roosevelt the ambitious egotist, the
would-be Caesar-that monstrous fig
dre of caricature drawn by enmity
and. malice has been destroyed, never
to reappear. But we fancy the other
thought-that this is a "one-man
movement'-still persists, and it is
upon this point that we purpose to
speak with somewhat personal EN-.
phasis.
With the narrow escape from the
tragedy fresh in mind, we say that
Colonel Roosevelt was not the creator
of the Progressive movement, that he
is not the guarantor of its permanency
nor his life necessary to its ultimate
success.
The Progressive cause and the Pro
gressiye party are at this time mil
lions Of votes stronger because, re.
spending to the call of duty, he sacri-
need ease and braved misinterpreta-
ton to become their leader. The es-
tablishment Of social and industrial

has made Progressives, but he did
not make Progressivism. He is, 1t
has been said, the political parent"
Of Folk and Hadley and Johnson and
Wilson and others who have won
prominence in the faith. But he did
not implant in the breasts of men the
aspirations for freedom and justice
which the cause embodies.
The principles which now are set
forth for the first time by great
political party as contract with the
people" have long been the growing
beliefs of millions of citizens. Roose-
welt during his Presidency began tc
interpret them and to put into con.
crete form and phrase these aspira.
tons and convictions.
Like all effective leaders of historic
movements, he crystallized and gave
visible substance to the deep-rooted
longings of men. He voiced what mil.
lions felt. But the cause was born In
the heart Of this nation, and there lies

Farewell Reception

On the 25th inst, the friends and
neighbors of Captain and Mrs. Ora
ham met at the Congregational par
sonage, to the number of nearly
fifty to express their sincere regrets
at their departure from this town,
and the earnest hopes and prayers
for their future happiness in their
new home in the suburbs of New
York City. The young people fur
nished programme consisting of
vocal and instrumental music, and
readings, and the pastor made an
appropriate address in presenting a
token of the esteem and affection of
Captain and Mrs. Graham's many
friends. Mr. Hall said in part:
Captain and Mrs. Graham this COM
pany is here to express appreciation
of your life and work, while you
have been citizensso of Island Pond, as
we'll as to wish you goodspeed in
your new home. There is but one
feeling regarding your departure
from this town, and that is one of
sincere regret. We are sustaining
an irreparable loss; you were ready
to assist in every good cause. For
every good work we knew where to
find you always. You will be missed
especially in the church and Sunday
School, for in all kinds of weather
you were in your places. You GER
tainly have served the church in most
important positions, as deacon and
church treasurer, as well as teacher
of an adult Bible class, in all these
offices you have served with special
acceptance, you have not only given
satisfaction bul great pleasure. And
Mrs. Graham you were alike devoted
to the best interests of the church,
working laborously in the Ladies
Aid, and ready at all times to give
your best to the cause that was dear
to your heart. 1t can be truly said
that neither of you gave to the Lord
that which cost you nothing. We are
sure you do not regret the devotion
of those years past, and we assure
you that you will live in our memory
and hearts for many years to come
We are loath to part with you, but
as we must, we will pray that you
may be useful and happy in youl
future home, and we sincerely hope
that some day you may return tt
spend the evening of life among
your many friends in this hill tor
town of the Green Mountain state
Your friends were puzzled to know
what to present to you that might
serve as a memento of their esteem
and affection, and they could thinl
of nothing more suitable, than {
reading lamp, lamp that will radi
ate the softened light of Christianity
so that when you sit down to YOU
evening devotions, or to study o.
reading, or to enjoy the social hours
together you may think of YOUR low
ing friends up in the north. Be
sides the little article which accom-
panies the lamp may be used tt
brush the dust from your trave
stained garments. Please accep
these two articles as a small token O
our high esteem and Christian love.
Captain Graham, in behalf of Mrs
Graham and himself, suitably re
piled, and expressed their pleasure
in meeting with their friends, ant
receiving the gift so lovingly ten
, dered.
The remainder of the evening we
spent in social fellowship, and par
taking of the good things provides
: and daintily served by the ladies'
Con.

PICKED UP IN
CHICKEN YARD
Several Little Hinte That wII
Provo Of Much Assistance
60 Any One Keeping
Poultry.

The average cockerel does not pay
for his keep and he should be sent to
the block as soon as he weighs four
pounds unless he Is to be kept for
breeding.
Let a strange dog rush through the
poultry yard and the excitement will
affect the egg supply for that day.
While hens have no sentiment.
there Is no doubt they are extremely
nervous Mt times-particularly during
the breeding season-and should be so
placed that they cannot be disturbed.
II does not matter 20 much about
tho breed as It does about the kind Of
treatment your hens receive.
or course. II you are going in for
poultry to sell on tho market you must
select the fowl that will produce tho
most meat. and II for eggs the breed
that will produce more eggs than
meat. Then 1t is "up to you" to get
the most out of them. as the slang
goes.
Once more. do not feed the young
chicks n particle Of anything for at
least SO hours after they are hatched.
Early feeding means disease and
death.
Do not wait . single day to order
your wire and put your enclosures for
the youngsters In good condition.
When q sick fowl Is discovered. re-
move It at once. Maybe II you will
attend to It then and there you can
save It. whereas II allowed to wait
too long. It may die.
Throw an extra lot OF hay into the
poultry yards. The chickens will
scratch out every clover seed. There
is no better way 10 make them work
for their food
Damp houses are the greatest pro-
moters OF disease among fowls.
It is a good plan to teach the young
generation OF chickens to roost on
perches as soon as possible. For one
thing this will keep them out Of reach
Of rats.
One Of our poultry folk advises put
ting n pint OF coal oil in each bucket
OF whitewash before going over the
inside Of the hen house. This for the
special benefit OF lice and mites.

Woolly aphides are degraded insects

The very fragility OF this sucking or

the infested tree, because 1t can be
Inserted only into or possibly partially
through the outer bark; thus the
nourishment is withdrawn from the
stem Immediately beneath the true
wood on the one side and new bark
on the other. This drain upon the
trees food supply and the consequent
lmpoverishment Of the growing tissue
at the point OF attack tends to inter-
fere seriously with the proper de-
velopment of the stem attacked.
Especially Is this true in a year when
these pests are APT to appear in count.

nourishment. aided by the mechanical
injury to the bark. Is very apt to
cause cracks to appear in the latter.

COAL TAR FOR
INSIDE OF SILO
Quite GeneraII Used for Painting
Inside Of Hugo RcccptaeIes,
Especially of Slaves.

Coal tar Is quite generally used for
painting the inside of silos. especially
where they are made of slaves. 1t
not only acts as n preservative. but 1t
Is quite helpful In closing up the
small cracks and excluding the air.
1t is usually applied while hot, The
hotter the tar Is the more It will
penetrate. Tho usual practice is to
heat tho coal tar In n kettle. Care
should be taken to keep It some dis
tance from the building. as the tar.
ignited. makes dangerous fire. Hot
coal tar gives OFF fumes that will ig-
Mite when exposed to a flame. There
fore. while applying the tar to the in.
side OF silo one should. by all means.
dispense with smoking.
A very good plan 10 to have a fire
for heating the coal tar some distance
from the building. and then apply It
to the inside Of the silo with a broom.
This can be done while the silo is be.
ing filled.
Some make It practice to paint
the inside Of the silo every year at
filling time.

and It itched until 1t almost drove mo

itching under the skin. It spread fast
from between the fingers around tho

got n pair OF rubber gloves in order to
wash dishes. Then 1t spread all over
the left side OF my chest. A fine doc
tor treated the trouble two weeks. but
did me no good. I cried night and
day. Then I decided to try Cuticura

hope as had gono 30 long. There

his good points. and it's very sad to

GHOSTS EVER BOTHER YOU7
II So, Southern Negro Folks Say These
Simple Precautions viii Chase
e m.

AS part of the folklore Of the No
gro folks the superstitions of slavery
days are of great interest. The fol-
about ghosts:
To feel a hot breath Of air strike
you at twilight signifled the nearby
presence Of ghost. Should you wish
to avoid him. stop and turn your coat
and trousers and hat wrong side out
and the spirit cannot encounter YOU.
II. however, he Is pugnacious
sprite and approaches despite the
change. turn and address him thus:
I'm the name Of the Lord, what do you
want?" Whereupon he will tell you
his business upon earth. then depart
and never. never trouble you again.
II. on the other hand. 1t is n prowling
ghost who crawls under the house,
bumps against the floor. makes
strange sounds. and whispers in the
midnight hours. you have only to put
In new floor and he will do SO no
more.
Some ghosts are obtrusive and will
not only prowl about the house. but
creep in through the crack of the door
in the wee small hours Of the night.
and. once inside, expand to vast pro-
portions. To spare yourself any dis
turbance in this way. SOW mustard
seed all about the doorstep just before
going to bed, or place q sieve on the
doorstep.
Before entering. the spirit will have
to count all the holes in the sieve or
all the mustard seeds. and by this
time daylight will come and he will
have to go. AS the counting for one
night will not do for another you are
always safe.-Southern Workman.
