CIR WALTER SCOTT wrote
the Tales Of a. GRANDPA
Their" Somebody ought to
write the Tales of a Grand
mother" before it is too late. Re
cent excursions into American
'sms" and Criticisms" have
brought to mind quaint phrases
which are neither American nor
British. They belong to the COM
mon stock from which our Eng
fish speech has grown. Grand
mother used them in her day, and
did not know that she was saying
something strange.
Whose grandmother? Yours. to
be sure, and mine, and the grand
mother of anybody you like to
name. Most of US have had a
grandmother-one, II not more
than one. Mine was a host in
herself. Let her stand for the
grandmother of all men and wom-
en- everywhere who love the flavor
of homely English speech and are
not willing to let is pass from hui
man memory.
Richard s Hatband.
She was a fine outstanding fig
ure of woman, my grandmother.
She lived to be SO, and 1t was the
disappointment of her life that
she died before she was 100. She
had a healthy contempt for per-
sons who could not sit bolt up
right or stand erect. Like cat
in pattens" was her description Of
the stumbling, shutting walk of
person awkward upon his feet.
A patten was wooden clog
raised several inches from the
ground by an ir-n framework I'M
derneath the wooden sole. The
housewife wore a pair of pat
tens" when she was "swilling" the
yard or washing the kitchen floor,
or after she had washed it and
before she flung the sand upon it
in the first instance so as not
to wet her feet, in the second so
as not to leave the marks of a
dirty shoe.
"As queer as Dicks hatband"
was common on her lips, though I
am bound to say that l never
heard the description of the
aforesaid hetband which learned
writer gives He says that the
popularity of it was that ut went
round nine times and would not
tie at last"
The reference Is to the nine
days protectorate of Richard
Cromwell, son of the great oliver,
uncrowned king of men. It is
the fashion to regard Richard as
a futile person and his nine days
reign" as a ridiculous thing; but
two men of letters, a Frenchman,
Scribe, and an Englishman, Bull
wer Lytton, have taken very diff
ferent views. confess to a weak
ness for Lytton's generous ap-
praisal Of Richard Cromwell, and
in a day when the doctrine of
"spoils" is revived l am inclined
to wish that some other politi-
clans would act in such a way as
to give to the world an exam
pie as fine as that of Dick and,
his hatband.
How Phrase Started.
Grandmother used to call a
thing that was confused "all skies
and sevens." When we were sent
out to buy a pound of tallow can
dies, we were told to ask for
short skies" or long SKIES" the
short ones being stout and the
long ones thin, and in any case
running six candles to the pound.

1t is possible that at an earlier
day some ran seven to the pound;
and so things that were mixed
were all skies and sevens."

Pity the poor liquor interests. They getting

Should Arouse Every Friend of Good
Government

government
The United Societies announcement made last
week that they will endorse candidates in the coming
Congressional and Legislative campaigns within the
state of Illinois should to action every good
citizen of the By this they have
challenged the temperance people of the state to a
bitter contest. This coming campaign for this
promises to be fight to the finish The United
Societies going after, shown by their dec
aration, the control of the next legislature Suppose
they succeed in eectng these they endorse what
will happen in Illinois? Place the next legislature in
the hands of these endorsed by the United So
cieties and what will be done?
A member of of the legislative bodies not
long ago told that when he was elected to the
Assembly he committed either for the United
Societies program against the same. Soon after
going to Springfield he interviewed by Mr.. Ger
max and asked to lend his influence in defeating
tain bills. These bills at first sight did seem to
be such the United Societies would be particularly
interested in, and this member of the assembly
asked why they opposed to the same. He was
told by them that the United Societies did not want
those measures passed they would hurt their bust
ness. He promised to look them little later
second interview given him asking that he use
his influence to kill certain measures in committee.
The question asked the second time, and
again he was assured that it enough for him to
know that the United Societies were opposed to those
measures and that they did not propose to have any
measure passed that would hurt their business His
refusal to obey the dictates of that organization in
every detail meant their refusal to support him in
future campaigns.
The announcement by this organization of their
intention to go into the next legislative fight and en-
dorse candidates is challenge to every good man in
the state We sometimes blamed for bringing the
wet and dry issue into the legislative campaigns and
legislative battles, but this declaration the part of
the United Societies justihes effort the part of
the churches and the good people of the state

ganizaton In addition to that it makes it absolutely
imperative that in the interest of good government we
appreciate that the real battle in this year. 1914 is

Millions For Agriculture

From the United States Govern
ment or the next fiscal year, the
States will receive $10,000,000 for ag-
ricuItural extension work. Such n
schedule has just been worked out by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture.
This fund is made operative by the
SmithLever bill, providing for CO.
operative agricultural extension work
between the States and the Depart
ment of Agriculture.
"The act makes available for the
next nine fiscal years." says the de-
partment, IAN aggregate sum of
*23,l2O00O Of federal funds to be ex-
pended in instruction and practical de-
monstrations in agricultural and home
economies. To obtain this total the
States must appropriate for like pur-
poses a total of SIS, 100000, making a
total of S4l 100000 to be expended
during the next nine fiscal years on
direct agricultural work. Thereafter
the Federal government is to appro-
pirate S4,5SO,O00 annually, and the
States to take their full quota must
