Does II Rain Frogs 2

Does It Rain FrOgsl
A gentleman from Glendale who
was at one of the bayside resorts
during the severe storm which pre-
vailed last week, tells the following
story. He said after the storm ceas-
ed the sands and marshes were COW
cred with small frogs of every con-
ceivable color and kind. Some were
striped with fancy colors and some
were dark and looked like young
bull frogs, and other were very light
in color, resembling the common
toad. None of them looked like the
tree toad; yet they seem to have the
same peculiar features of that toad
in changing their color to corre-
spond with whatever kind of wood
or leaves their body rested on. He
said that before the storm he walked
over the same grounds and there
were no frogs in sight and yet after
the stormJthey were so plentiful he
could hardly make step without
crushing one of them.
Where did these frogs come from?
Did they come with the rain from
above, or did the earth through the
moisture received from the rain, re-
lease these amphibous animals from
a dormant state?
Slight Fire
During the storm which occurred
Monday afternoon, June 26, light
ming struck the recently built barn
on the Lofiand farm near Ellen
dale and burned a hole in the roof
and also some hay.
The quick work of the tenants aid
ed by neighbors, soon had the fire
under control, with only slight dam
age. The Glendale Fire Company
was called but arrived too late to be
of any service in eXtinguishing the
fire.
The fire laddies had quite an eX-
perience in going to this fire. They
left home when the storm was at
its worst, rain fell in torrents mixed
with large hail and some of the boys
can show marks received from con-
tact with the frozen raindrops.
Mail Contract
John w. West, the new contractor
for carrying the mail from Ellen
dale to Milton, entered upon his du-
ties July 1. He will make one trip
daily except Sunday between Ellen
dale and Milton. Heretofore Mr..
the old contractor, made
two trips each way except Sunday.
Fourth of July
Many of our people visited the !
different seaside resorts and spent |
the day in bathing and boating, and
some welded the rod and line and
were very successful. Those who re-
mained at home were very patriotiei
the American flag being displayed |
from many homes.
Welcome Rains
The splendid rains we have had
'or the past week have put new life
n the looks of growing trucks and
he farmers around Glendale will
1e greatly helped thereby. The

THE FIRST TANGLE

Once in an eastern palace wide
A little child sat weaving;
So patiently her task she piled,
The men and women at her side
Flocking round her almost grieving
How is it, little ons," they said,
"You always work so cheerily?
You never seem to break your
thread,
Or snarl or tangle it, instead
Of working smooth and clearly.
Our weaving gets so worn and soil
ed,
Our silk so frayed and broken
For all we've fretted, wept and toll
ed,
We know the lovely patterns spoil
Before the king has spoken"
The little child looked in their eyes,
So full of care and trouble;
And pity chased the sweet surprise
That filled her own, as sometimes
flies
The rainbow in a bubble.
81 only go and tell the king"
She said, abashed and meekly;
"You know, he said in everything"
"Why so do wei" they cried, eve
bring
Him all our troubles weekly"
She turned her little head aside;
A moment let them wrangle;
"Ah. but" she softly then replied,
81 go and get the knot united
At the first little tangle!"
Oh, little children, weavers all!
Our broidery we spangle
With many a tear that would not
fall
If on our king we would but call
At the first little tangle.

SOWING
JOE'S SIDE, MY SIDE AND
GRANDMA'S SIDE

We had a quarrel, Joe and /; -- .
Twas just about a ball
That we found one day together,
Over the school-yard wall.
Joe said he'd never speak to me.
And 1 said, 81 was glad"
Then we couldn't think enough
About each other that was bad.
We'd always been the best of friends
It did seem very queer
For me to pass right by his home,
And him to go by here,
And grandma asked me what II
meant,
She heard no whistle call;
So l told her of our trouble
That day about the ball.
Joe stood right over cross the street
His face was turned this way,
And grandma beckoned him to come
To hear what he would say.
She'd heard my side, and she heard
his.
Then shook her head-"Dear me!
What cause you had for all this fuss
I'm sure 1 cannot see!
"What foolish boys! You must admit
You both were in the wrong;

GRANDM AIS
SCRAP BOOK
"BUTTER YOUR TUST"

A mother spread her scanty board
with linen, white and fair,
And called her orphan children in
to take their seats. with care.
With ruby cheeks and sparkling
eyes, they came, with childish
mirth,
Happy, as though they knew no
want, while, really, there was
dearth.
Their mother pale and thin, from
want, had, for them, saved the
bread
Two hardened crusts, a butter pot,
was all before them laid.
With folded hands, like marble car
we'd, her heart-thTobs shaped in
weeping
Voiceless blessing, DER the food, be-
fore they fell to eating.
One of the children pettish grew,
the bread so hard had grown.
The mother faltered in her grief,
and naught was heard but
means.
The little one broke forth. in glee-
Butter your tust, l say!"
And with her peachy ,finger-tips,
she spread it, right away.
She smacked her lips. and laughed
and cooed, "It's pity dood," she
said.
And by her patient, gentle ways, to
smiling both were led.
But, here, the lesson need not stop,
tits we'll for everyone
To initiate the little child, until our
life's works done.
We, each of us, find crusts in life'
perchance it is not bread,
But something hard for us to meet
and will be till we're dead.
But we can butter all our crusts
with smiles and cheerful doing,
And never court the shady side, it is
not worth the woOing.
BY E. c. Williams Livermore
SOWING
We SOW the seed;
God sees our deed,
And in His hand results all lie
We SOW in tears,
And through His years
Our harvests ripen for the sky.

A TRULY HAPPY FAMILY

l know happy FAMILY OF cunning
boys and girls,
Who have such round and rosy
checks and pretty, golden curls
In all that they may have to do they
pleasantly agree,
And everyone of them is kind and
good as good can be.
They never call each other names
nor pull each others hair,
Nor find the slightest bit of fault
with what they have to wear.
They never cry at night because
they have to go to bed.
Nor even frOwn at anyone, no mat
ter what is said.
Not one of them was ever known to
try to tease the cat,
Or even have a wish to do naughty
deed like that.
When they are asked to do a thing
they never say 81 shant!"
Because they're sawdust boys and
girls, and so, you see, they can't.

or later become absolutely neces-
sary.
Sometime ago our government
proposed tariff truce. 1t was
thought it would greatly assist In
dealing with the tariff question at
the conference. Great Britain ac-
cepted the truce, with reservations,
however, which enabled her to
complete tariff treaties with a
number of important countries
Thus after the Ottawa conference,
at which there was established u
tariff system favorable to Great
Britain and after completing the
tariff treaties with the other coun-
tries, she accepted the truce and
goes to the conference with pro-
gram to adjust tariffs.
Her tariff policy Is firmly es-
tablished. Any tariff policy adopt
ed at London will be an extension
of her policy and in support Of It,.
The British delegates must have
enjoyed Mr.. Hu,l's speech on the
subject of adjusting the tariff.
Illustrating the effect of the
tariff policy adopted at Ottawa,
it may be interesting to know
that the wheat importations of
England In the first quarters of
1888. compared with other years,
showed that while. wheat imports
from Canada into. England were
larger by 100000 hundred weigh.
than in the corresponding period
Of 1891. and from Australia larger
by 2,413,000 hundred weight, inn
portations from the United States
into England had fallen from A.
153.193 hundred weight to bare
5000 hundred weight
