The Old Lady, who was standing
at the other end of the counter
waiting until the clerk should be
free, looked at the speaker over her
spectacles.
"Ain't aiming to help the Govern
ment, specially, are you, Samuel?'
she asked, dryly.
"Why not do, Marthy", the first
speaker said. ''Helpin' the Govern
ment, you say? Well, l dunno's be.

course, I wouldn't do anything to

81 guess you haven't heard the
news, have you, Samuel?" the Old
Lady asked.
"Well, I didn't see the morning
paper" he returned, reluctant to
admit that there could be anything
which he did not know.
"Ain't heard about all the fences
being down from Maine to Californy,
from Minnesota to Texas?"
He looked at her then laughed.
"sho thought you were in earnest,
he said, starting for the door.
81 am telling you, Samuel. Every
fence in this whole country is down.
There amt a fence left-any-
where"
"Marthy Watkins, you amt well,

"Marthy Watkins, you amt well,
he asked.
"Well and in my right mind, said
she. 'I'm telling you the gospel
truth, Samuel. Throughout the
length and breath of this bling coun-
try there amt a fence left standing.
You've read how sometimes plague
O. grasshoppers comes along and
eats every blade O. grass and every
leaf in a whole country and more,
same sort O. thing has happened in
this whole country, only to the fen
ces."
"Why, Marthy, how you talk!
Look over your shoulder and out
the binder" N
ooh, there's things of wood and
iron and wire for beasts and cattle.
I'm talking about the kind offences
you sit on, Samuel! l tell you, there
amt fence left anywheres that a
body can find comfortable place to
perch on. Nat fence left to dodge
behind. You and me, and everyone
else in this village; every man and
woman in TIE United States of Am
erica, from President Wilson down
to Loony Ann in the Poor House,
every lase blessed one of us is out in
the open, where there amt no fence.
Time was then when we could all
fine handy little perch on one
fence or another. We could all say
we were neither for nor against.
We could all say that while we did
not exactly like this or that, we
didn't dislike It. We could all say
that while we wouldn't do anything
to help this or that along, we would
not do anything to hinder it. We
could all say it wasn't our war, be-
ing fought as it was across the
ocean. Some Of US could even say,
without being thought crazy, that it
wasn't our war because we were
poor folks; we could say twas rich
mans war. That was before our
own boys got into it. We could ev-
en- say how downright sorry we were
for the hungry folks, and the dying
folks, and the bereaved ones over
there, without feeling that twas our
business as well as theirs.
But thos fences have gone dokn,
Samuel. Now we are out in the op-
en- pasture. We've got to show
which side we're on, whether we
want to or not. There amt so much
as rabbit hole for us to hide in.
What we don't help now, we hinder.
What we don't stand for, we stand
against. What we don't boost, we
bang. What we don't give to, we
take away from. Why, it's like be-
ing awake or being asleep, being
alive or being dead. There amt
any middle ground-there amt any
fence. You're for the Government
and what it wants and what it
stands for, or you're against it. If
you don't save and give and work
for it, you are spending and vast
ing and working against it. And
what's more and final, if you work
against your Government you're a
traitor! A traitor! That's a nasty
word to hear, but it's nastier thing
to be, Samuel!
Samuel's mouth had long since
fallen open. Now it closed with a
snap. He had to moisten his lips be-
fore he could speak. "My stars,
Marthy! Them's hard savings" said |,
he.
"Not half as hard as the truth, /,
Samuel-and l haven't said half the |
ruth about it. Why, any man or
woman that tries to find fence to
it on these days"

BRAzIL's COFFEE CROP,

Reports from Brazil are to the ef-
fect that the coffee crop is the record
breaker of history The market for
coffee is already glutted. The war has
circnmscribed the area to which cof-
Zee may be exported very greatly and
there Is nc reason to expect broad
sning of the use of coffee in those
countries which may buy it, The
scarcity of sugar will prevent any in
crease in the sales. So it comes that
he coffee planters are facing the low
est prices that have obtained in many
years and It is not expected that Bra
zirs credit will be sufficient to bolster
the market in an appreciable degree
The bean keeps well. however, and i
IS likely vast storage facilities will be
provided for the planters to the end
that may sell slowly and so keep the
price up. Meantime the coffee drink
er may congratulate himself that cof-
fee is the only food product whose
price Is not increased by the war.

SOME NEW YEARS THOUGHTS.

II is sometimes said that you can
Judge of peoples characters by the
use they make of their leisure time.
The New Years celebration might be
regarded in the same way. People
who are worshipfully inclined attend
watch meetings. They can open their
hearts to the spiritual feeling OF the
hour. Ii is an imaginative moment,
as one thinks of the vast cycles OF
eternity and the completion of one
more yearly journey of our earth
about its accustomed path. The mo-
ment suggests the immensity of the
universe. the infinity of time. the lit
tleness of man. and the futility Of the
fret and fever Of this life.
Those who are bent on gaiety watch
the old year out. They blow horns,
eat and drink overmuch, and dance
until they are footsore and leg weary.
Enjoyed in a spirit of temperate mod
Grafton. these frolies may be a useful
break in the monotony Of life. Free
quently they are principally notable
as creators of headaches.
New Years used to be time for
making good resolutions The ex-
preston turning over a new leaf"
was favorite one. The idea has
been vastly ridiculed. Certainly the
man who can make good resolutions
only once year stands little chance
OF accomplishing anything. Still
there are many people of hesitating
and uncertain impulses who have been
helped by this idea Of fresh start
There is something rather exhil-
arating about the idea OF new be-
ginning on January /. II suggests
the mystery and the possibilities OF
the future To many of US 1918 will
bring great changes. II will open
new vistas of opportunity, and it viii
bring losses now mercifully hidden
But the Joy should outweigh the sor-
row in all normal minds.
