BETHLEHEM.
THE SIXTH ANNIVERSARY OF BETHLEHEM
GRANGE.
The following paper was read at thp
anniversary meeting of Bethlehem
Grange, Monday night, by Amos C. Lake,
who for four years has been the efficient
treasurer. Six years ago 35 of the inhab
itants of this town met together and
formed the Bethlehem Orange, making
an obligation implied and understood, to
be just and true to each other and labor
for the best Interests, improve our moral
and Boeial condition, benefit our finan
cial interests and to labor for tbe com
mon good of all. It is well for the mem
ories of the past to be like a pun dial, only
marking the hours that shine. Tbe six
years of the life of Bethlehem Grange
have not passed by without bright and
pleasant events, and the accomplishment
of some good. The development of the
ability of Its members to express their
views in public has been one of the good
things accomplished. One fact that came
to my notice illustrated that point. At a
social gathering In our town some time
since there was present from out of town
a person, a native and for some time a
resident of this town. Several of our
patrons responded to tbe call from the
toastmaster of the evening In a very
pleasant manner. This person remarked
co me that they did not know as we had
so many men that could speak so well. I
replied that it was the Orange that had
brought out their ability. We have be
come better acquainted with our fellow
townspeople, and by gathering in Po
mona meetings have had an opportunity
to meet people in adjoining towns. This
has given us a chance to rub againsteacb
other and wear off the rough corners of
our make.up, gathering Ideas, increasing
the activity of our mental powers and ad
vancing with the rest of the world in thi
progressive age. Socially our Orange
has been a success. We have been enter
tained by our neighboring Granges, and
in turn have entertained them. Financi'
ally we have made some progress. Bu
our greatest benefit in that direction has
been probably derived from our trade
cards. This may be due to the fact that
a large number of our members go to
Waterbury for a market and naturally
will do a large amount of their trading
there, although there is no question in
my mind but that we have reduced the
merchants profits In more than one case.
There are many ways we might buy to
getner and make a good saving if we
would, and I hope we may grap the op
portunity in the near future to do so. It
is with a feeling of sadness and regret
that I look about tbls hall and see tbe va
cant chairs and miss the presence of so
many of our absent friends, once mem
oers woo Dave withdrawn irom our
Orange, many of them active and useful
brothers and tisters. If each member
who has withdrawn from us was obliged
to write on the back of their chair the
cause of their withdrawal, .what would
we find written on several of them?
will leave that for each of you to imag
ine. But 1 fear It would not bring pleas
ant recollections to our mind. Tbe time
has come for us to seek a remedy for all
this. Let us arise in our might, good and
true brothers and sisters, put aside all
hatred and malice In our minds and have
only one thought in our minds, the good
and true welfare of our Grange' We
have enough of the right kind of blood
left In us yet to sustain and maintain the
Orange. Let us arise in our might and a
bright future Is before us.

A QUIET NEW YEAR'S TIME
The New Year was ushered in here
with all the quietness of a Sunday
Hardly a call was made among neigh
bors. But few greetings were heard in
the street. The place of business here
kept open but customers seemed to be
by no means plenty. Oa account of the
mild temperature of that day, the skat
ing on the lake was poor and sleighing
on the highways out of the question.
Altogether New Year's day seemed very
dull and monotonus.
A dancing party was enjoyed at W. C.
Beeman's spacious barn on Wednesday
evening of last week, participated in by
old and young.
W. C. Beeman was among the last .to
give up sleigh riding here, last week. On

extended to a jolly load of young people
a straw ride to Woodville, Romford
Davis Hollow, and home again at mid

Mrs. Barris relates Her experience
for tbe benefit of others.
"I had been sick with ulceration
of the womb, causing all kinds of dis
agreeable experiences, Such as irrita
bility, sleeplessness, faintness, and at
times hysterics. My physician said it
was the worst case he ever had. My
back ached, leucorrhoea very profuse,
and I had a severe bearing-down pain.
The physicians thought I should never
recover, and as the iast remedy, they
procured your Vegetable Compound.
I had not taken mora than one-fourth
of a bottle, before I was more com
fortable. I eon tinned its use, also the
Sanative Wash, and Liver Pills. - After '
using four bottles, I was able to be
oat, and do almost all my work. 1
tnink tbe Vegetable Compound -is the
only medicine that will cure female
complaints, and it will rea&h the worst

THOUGHTS ON THE PASSING TEAR.
The change from 1896 to 1897 was not
discernable, and only to-be known by
consulting the almanc. It hardly seems
possible that we have approached so
near the end of the century as 1S97. The
year will be what we make it personally
We are the architects of our own for
tune. We build our own characters and
are the arbiters of our own destiny. It
has been wisely said that ' 'He builds too
lw who builds bensath the skies." It
the reason is asked, the answer plainly
is that the building we rear we shall oc
cupy forever. '"If we sow to the flesh,
we sh ill reap corruption, but if we sow
to the spirit we shall reap life everlast
ing." The difference 13 wide; the condi
tion is manifest. Ia the hardware busi
ness there is a lock called "The Janus
Io2k," which means "face both ways
That is, the same lock could be adjusted
to doors intended to shut either to the
right or to the left. January, tbe
opening month of tbe year is named
from the god Janu3, who had two faces.
Now to make the most of the year to
come it will be useful to look backward,
to make or take
survey of the old year, what it has done
for us, what of unfinished plans and pur
poses, which may have been arrested
from circumstances untorseen. This
will furnish U3 with a kind of momen
tum, a start that will carry us further on
our Journey. Everything is in the dark.
The book which lies before us is sealed
with seven seals. There is no One in
heaven, nor in earth, neither under the
earth able to open the book, neither to
look thereon. These closing words seem
to startle ns like a clap of thunder at
noonday with a clear sky. What is
meant? "Neither to look thereon?" Can
it be that a brightness is reflected from
it above the brightness of the sun, such
as persecuting Saul encountered on the
way to Damascus? Perhaps so. He
way using time as if all belonged to him.
He was mad against the infant : church.
He expected to have his own way, but a
moment of time came which entirely
changed his plans. There was a light
from Heaven that suddenly shone around
him. Somebody was opening that won
derful book. It was tbe lion of the tribe
of Judah. With this dark black cloud
before us and sealed, in so far as we are
personally concerned, we need to focal
ize all tbe light of the pas' upon the pres
ent hour, and ask ourselves how we
shall nse it? Our times are not in onr
hands, but in His, who is able to unseal
and open this wonderful book of Provi
dence. 1 While it is so, yelr the year,, so
long as it is ours in time, ' will be what
we make it. We must have a high ideal
and only the highest is worthy1' of ns.
To multitudes 1896 was the last, so to
multitudes 1897 will be the last. If it
shall so prove to be to us, what will be
the end? Look to the end, provide for it
and all will be well. A nobleman once
kept a fool and one diy gave him a staff
to keep until be should meet a greater
fool than himself. - Some years after the
nobleman was taken sick, even unto
death. Tbe tool went to see his master,
who said to him, "I must shortly leave."
V Where are you going?" said tbe fool.
"Into another world." "When will you
return,' within a month ?" "No, oev-
er." "What provisions have you made
tor entertainment there?" "None at all,
for with all my folly, I am not guilty of
such folly as this."
