WHEN BOSTON WAS IN TROUBLE.

In 1774, on the LIST Of June, the Bos-
ton port bill went into operation. At
noon the harbor was closed against
all vessels and business was suspend
ed. In a 20 days notice the citizens
of Boston were deprived Of their means
of gaining a living. Indignation ran
high throughout the colonies, contri-
buttons were raised in other cities for
their relief, and the people Of Marble
head offered the Boston merchants the
use of their wharves.

There are women everywhere who
long for children in their homes yet are
denied this happiness on account of
some functional disorder which in most
cases would readily yield to Lydia E.

Such women should not give up hope

Documents that have been charred
by fire are rendered readable if col

a tough, transparent coating is pro-

thus charred have been treated in this

THE RIGHT TO LABOR IN JOY

Out on the roads they have gathered,
a hundred thousand men,
To ask for a hold on life as sure as
the VOLTS hold in his den.
Their need lies close to the quick OF
life as the earth lies close TO the
stone:
1t is as meat to slender rib, as mar
row to the bone.
They ask but the leave to labor TOT
a taste of life's delight. !,
For a little salt tosavor their oreao
for houses water-tight.
They ask but the right to labor ane
to live by the strength OF tnell
hands
They who have bodies like knottet
oaks, and patience like sea sands
And the right of man to labor ant
his right to labor in JOY
Not all your laws can strange ina

and was kneaded into his bones
And it will stand at the last OF tnlng

How often have we heard this slo-

Under most conditions we are quite

But why limit it, as the merchant
generally does, to the merchandising

There are many other kinds OF
dollars which should be kept at

them would become home-tradlng
dollars.
There are the dollars which the
farm tenant pays to the absentee
landlord, which would stay in the

owned by the man who works 1T.
THEY WOULD MAKE A VERY

Dear Editor:
The farmers about Antelope tell
funny tales about disorganized farm
er, "Looney" Lundberg.
Now one farmers claims that one
day he drove into the elevator where
Looney used to buy grain, and found
the Unorganized Farmer charming
snakes instead of buying grain. He
claims that Looney pulled up his old
old shirt and showed him where the
snake had stung him on the stomach.
Now little Joe if you do not be-
lieve this story, the nebt time you
use the stomach pump on his old
carcass, look for yourself and you
will find the holes still there where
the fangs made deep wounds.
So, after time, Kate hitched "old
Dobbin" to the sleigh and hit for
Antelope to see what had become of
Freddie DEAR" and found him in the
shape / just said.
Kate told Fred to preambulate to
their country mansion where the
water and broom handles are fine.
II Kate had not come to his rescue
at Antelope he might have gone the
same route as Haywood.
