If yoa want to know the peo pie who susthin a town, carry around a subscription paper. or be a church treasurer. You will find-it is not those who dress in purple arid finer lineh but it is people of moderate in come, the toilers in the various avocations, who are dependent upon their daily labor or busi ness. They build our schools and churches, and carry on pub lic enterprises.. When a subscription paper is presented they respond cheer fully. What they get from the public they give back to it. and thus keep up the prosperity of a town, ine community w men overlooks the common people makes a great mistake. The eni . n people who contribute, to the public. deserves its honors not those who onljr receive from it. Society owes nothing to those who acknowledge no debt to it. Those who spend all their mon ey upon .themselves, however rich they may be, are the most selfish and valueless of citizens. Let us cease toadying to this class and honor the common people. Ex. There h more Catarrh in tLIa sec tion of the country than all other diseases pot together, and until the laat few years was supposed to be in curable. Fcr a preat many yeaia doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced jt incurable. Science has provtn catarrh to be a constitutional dbease, and, therefore, requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cuie, manufactured by F. J. Cheney &.

The Wilberforce university, located at Wilberforce, Ohio, is the oldest institute in the Uniued States having for its ob ject the education of colored people. Recently this institnte conferred the degree of LL. D. upon President Cleveland. The president has recently sent an autograph letter to President Mitchell, of the university, de clining the honor, for the reason that he is not a college gradu ate, and that other institutions have offered the same honors, and which he declined. Mr. Cleveland has given some of the colored men in and around Wilberforce recognition by ap pointing them to office, hence the bestowment of their favor upon him.

Her streams run clear,' a lipid tide, by fertile vale3 and mountain side; the red deer bounds in her forests fair, and the quail sings merri ly everywhere. The oak is grand, the pine is tall, and the mill-wheels whir in the water fall. Under her soil the coal beds lie, with lead and iron in her mountains high. The fish sport free in her waters clear; the oak mast grows and the hogs are here.

The two men were policemen and the would-be robber was easily taken, and was much surprised when he learned that he was in their clutches. The robber had a complete set of burglar's tools and no doubt will land in the state's prison, there to atone for his wicked ways. A Mfflioa Fnaaos.

Jane 18th, 189.1- Since our meeting last winter, we have had ruady things to . encourage us in our Work as fruit-growers and developers of onr lands as well as beau ti Here of them. Some strange things have huppenrd; the winter has been a mild and pleasant one and yet pome of tbo coldest weather that we ever had, lasted for a day or two at different seasons. The winter has been thedryest, and the spring, in sympathy, has kept up therecord. The early budding of our trees, the extreme warm weather of March, the numerous could "pell, with frost at tending, and the continuoub cool weather with the smallest amount of rain for April and May have not hindered our fruit from fully develop ing. The extreme dry weather of 1894 injured, and the winter injured still more, nnr raspberry and straw berry crop, r This drouth affected' more or lees all. onr.fruits .and it may be seen in the dropping of the fruits in .some places this summer. But no ioiary has thus far occurred and the prospects are the best the state has ever had. j APPLES. Our appl crop promises one of the best that the state has ever pro duced. From the Iowa line to the Arkansas and from the Mississippi river to the 'Kansas state line,, the report comes continually that wher- evertheorchard was not too full last year, and wherever the tiees have been taken care of, the crop will be good. What this means to Miseouri you can hardly appreciate until you see the millions of money it will bring to our state. Io some instances the bail has done damage, in other in stances there has been some4 injury by late frosts, but the injury is local only and the damage not severe. The sooth part of our state will make a wonderful showing this year, if nothing intervenes, and I look for a great extension of our orchards daring the next few years. Cultiva tion and care show conclusively that they will pay, in the growth of the tree, in tbo heath of the leuvct, in the vigor of the bloom, in the size of the fruit and in the money return the crop will bring. Already buyer are seeking to locate our largest npple orchards and making bids for thnm. The crop will be light in the Eaet and prospect is good for fair prices. TH5 PEACH. The peach crop will be quite a gen eral one, but strange to say tnat along the the line of Neosbo, Carth age and nearly or quite to Spring field, the crop will be a very light one, while as far north as Sc. Joseph the crop will be a full one. In some few locations the trees are slightly Injured, but where they were cut baHc properly they have shown a wonderful vigorand growth. Peache will be plenty, however, in the state, and prospect Is fair for good prices. THE PEAR. The pear crop will be the usual av erage one only exempting locations wnere some damage by frost occur red. THE PLUM. Wild goose varieties promise a good crop over most of the state in spite of the large crop of last year. They are being marked for their doom by the curculib and if not jar ed or sprayed will likely be very wormy; The European varieties, as ever has been their record, will make a poor showing. The Japanese va rieties, where not killed by early frost, show that they can produce more plums to the square foot than any other, yet it is doubtful if they are profitable market varieties THE CHEEBT. Morello varieties are as lull again as it is possible for the trees to hold in most all our fruit districts. In spite of the very large crop last year we again will have a good crop of fine cherries. Dry weather Is affect tog their ripening somewhat. OBAPES. , - The graps has been injured " la many of our northern counties, bat in most of the state the crop will be an average one. The grape crop of the East bas been cut off very badly by frosts and ws may safely count on fair prices for our crop. THE BLACKBEBBf. The' blackberry, where hardy va rieties were planted, never looked better and give promise of a grand, good crop Indeed. THE BASTBEBfBY. . The raspberry win not be more than naif crop. ' THE STRAW BX3tKT. The strawberry did not average more than one-half crop,' except In some special locations. Taking all in all we will have a gocd fruit crop and if money was not so scarce then we could count on good prices, but as it is we can only expect fair and perhaps good prices. , L. A. Goodman, Secretary, Westport, Mo. Women in Business. Little by little the number of women who have entered into bus inese relations to society has increas ed, until one has . j hardly realized how great the cumber is. - a statis tical bulletin just issued by. the treas ury department shows that in ten years there has been an increase of i.zo,do American owomen "en neMv. a gaged in gainful occupations," while the increase of the cumber "employ ed in trade . and transportation" reaches the surprising figures of 263 per cent. It Is explained - that this is caused by . the in creased use of the typewriter, and this is no doubt true. But is only a small part of the broad and im portant truth that the whole ten- deney of labor-saving invention -is to open new.lines of employment for women.' A woman can. now operate with one band a machine capable ol doing more in an hour than ten men could have done in a day fifty yeareago. WhenJt is no longer a question of strength or endurance ecoromic law will give the preference of employment to the least costly labor, lienco women are being pre ferred above men in a constantly increasing number of lines of work.

G-apes, as far as beard from, are generally promising. Anthracnose raspberries is giving . way somewhat, and there is promise of half a crop. In view of the hopeful condition of trade, advancement in prices, and, general prosperity, it stands horticuK turi'sts in hand to see that orchards receive proper treatment and the products bandied: to the beet ad Tantage. . ; ' The enterprising buver is a I read r in the field.

Some were sown to rye or wheat last fall, or . to oats thjs spring, iso member of any horticul tural society 'or reader of any horti cultural paper would be guilty of do ing so, and I am truly 'sorry for those who do' not know any better.

They are the grow ers (?) who will never glut the mar kets. They are a great help to the nurseries and give the progressiva orchardist a chance to cell his .so p erior products. It fs'eastef now to sell a thousand barrels of apples than it was to sell a bushel when I was a boy. No one is so far from - market ' as' he who has nothing to sell. - Uabmony among Democrats fs ab anlntplv paaont-ml tn namnon cess in 1896. We think the best way. to secure and maintain harmony is for all Democrats to keep in line' with well .established Democratic principles. When Democrats in na tional convention assembled said, "We hold to the use of both gold and silver as the standard money of the : country, and to. the coinag of . both ' gold and silver without ditcrimina-' ting against either metal or charge t for mintage. they made a plain , declaration which everybody can un derstand, and which 99 ont of evarr 100 Democrats endorsed. Whea Mr. Cleveland and his f olio werer woo -are of his way of thinking, say: "fjg os have both gold and silver coin, ' make gold the standard pf , Tains, , and silver a subsidary coin1 they ' discriminate against silver In favor . of gold, and violate the principles ot . the Democratic party as declared in national convention and incorpora- . tad In the Dlatform of nrincinlea nrv. , r 1 r on which Mr. Cleveland was . elected. : A M tta AAVtrllff Ana -f fKa aa a aaw eA changed since 1892 as to require, this changs In Democratic principle?)
