Satarn is a morning star, is in the constel

The Slanguage of Entreaty.
A pretty Woodward avenue girl, with
m love for btang, and the proud iiofmraior
of a father w ith money enough, but small
inclination to let go of it. asked her
mother the other day about taking a voy
age up the lake.
"Where's the money to come fiom ?"
inquired the mother.
"I'apa, of course," said the girl.
"Not much, of course,"' corrected the
mc.ther. "He irrow Is so at every addi
tional expense that sometimes I really
think be is as poor as tamarack swamp
land. I wouldn't start him to scolding
for anything by aking bitn for money.'
"Well, I'm not afraid," heroically re
6ponded the daughter ; "you say I can go
nd I'll work him for the money.
"All right, go ahead," and the girl went
off down town.
That eveninz she was ia ber father's
room and her mother wanted ber down
atairs.
"Fannie," she called, "come daw n here,
I want you."
"I'm busy, mamma," she answered.
"What are you Join??"
"Working the growler, mamma," and

What She Meant
The struggles of childhood w ith long
words are often as pathetic as tbey are
droll, but it is the funny pide which is
apt to impress their elders. A lady went
not long ago to call upon a neighbor in
the country, and found t'ie five year old
eon of tbe bouse playing niton - he lawn.
"How do you do, tieorgie," she said
"Is your mamma at home?''
"So, Mrs. iray," he answered, with
the most approved politeness.
I am sorry f.r that," the caller said.
"Will she begone Son?"
"I don't know," the little fellow an
swered doubtfully. 'She's gone to a
Christian and devil meeting."'
"CJone to what?" the lady exclaimed
ia astonishment.
"To a Christian and devil meeting in
the vestry," was the reply.
And it suddenly flashed across the
caller's remembrance that for that after
lernoon hai been appointed at the ves
try of the church a meeting of the Socie
ty of Christian Kndeavcr. D--'ii C?Kr.

' for this porpuee annually. It cofcU
xj to put up the product and ship it from
Washing' oa, so that only t WOO is actually
deT&ted to paying far the material distribut
ed. In June and July special agents travel
alniit inspecting tbe crops which the seed
men are raising. They select what they
wai.t by sample, and in November tbey
journey around again and make their con
tracts. Tie "stdmen do not usually produce their
stock in trade on their own land. They hire
the use of extensive tracts from farmers
sometime such a plantation will include a
thousand acre paying so much an acre and
supply ir.g the seeds to be planted. On their
part, tti farmers coutract to deliver tbe
crops obtained, busked or threshed, cleanc-d
and in pood condition. It is ajreel that
they shall do all the labor and that the par
ties of the other part shall be permitted to
examine the fields at any time and weed out
all "rogues,"' which are plants of inferior
varieties such as will creep in.
I MLEJERy's (FECIAL Gjn.
In summer time, when tbe crop are grow
ing, I'ncie Jerry" special agents come along.
To them each seed man shows not bis green
fields but hia "trial garden," wherein he
cultivates a lew specimens of each choice
vegetable that he is engaged in propagatiDg.
The government buyers look the stock over,
decide in a general way at to what to pur
chase, and go away, to return in the late
autumn and give their orders after inspect
ing the seeds in the bins.
These seed farms are scattered all over tbe
United States. Cabbage seed are nearlv all
grown on L ing Island, elsewhere in New
York Kate and in Connecticut. Farmers
belive that tbey need salt air. Of cauliflow
er ls the same remarks may be repeated.
Peas for seed ail come from tbe neighbor
hood of Traverse, Mich, and Wantiowoc,
Wis. Tb-ise got from elsewhere are always
apt to have little worms in them, but the
Hies of which these worms are the larva- do
not live in the region mentioned. Beet seeds
are nearly all imported. Carrot seeds come
from the tar west, especially from California,
in which Hate are also produced most of the
lettuce seed, and the beC Corn and onions
for seed are raised all over the country, and
the same is true of the seeds of melous.
Cucumber seeds come from Nebraska, Wis
consin and Missouri.
Onion seed-" are gathered by g ing through
the fields and cutting off the pods at tbe
top of the stalk, trying them in bundles and
threshing them out on canvas. Beans are
allnwrd to stand in the field until they are
yellow, afier which they are stacked up un- j
til tbey are perfectly dry and threshed out.
Teas are trmilted to get dry and hard in
the row, and then are taken to the barn for
threshing. To get cabbage seeds, the staiks
which have grown one year must be planted
the next, when they run to seed. Tbe same
is true of carr-Jts; the roots which have de-
velot-ed in one season are put in tbe ground
the next and go to beed. No seed pota'oes
ill be d .tr.buted this year by the df-part-
nient. The eves which have Deea smppta

Something is ljft
when you use Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy. It's Catarrh. The worst
cases yield to its mild, soothing,
cleansing, and healing properties.
No matter how bad your case, or of
how long standing, you can bo cured.
Incurable cases are rare. It's worth
$500 to you, if von liavo one. Tho
manufacturers of Dr. Sage's Remedy
are looking for them. They'll pay
you that amount in cash, if they
can't euro you. It's a plain Kraaro
offer from a responsible business
house, and they mean it- It 6ecms
too one-sided, too much of a ricL
It would be with any other medi
cine behind it. It only goe to prove
what's been Baid : incurables cases
are rare with Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy.
Other Bo-called remedies may pal
liate for a time ; this cures for all
time. By its mild, soothing, cleans
ing and healing properties, it con
quers tho worst cases. It removes
offensive breath, loss or impairment
of the 6ense of taste, smell or hear
ing, watering or weak eyes, when
caused by the violence of Catarrh,
as they all frequently arc.

and the total amount of tax paid upon them
$l.'l (wo so. This indicates an average rate
of S 3 mills. The taxes are all based upon
the rates for tbe year 10, and (bow a va
riation from 6 1 mills in Danpbin to li 01
mills in Sujquehanna. Tbe table shows
that in five coun ties tbe assessed value is
one-fourth of tbe real value ; in 15 counties
tbe assessrssed value is one-tbird of the real
value; in firecwuntics, tbe assessed value is
one-half of the estimated real value. Tbat
Is to sAy that properties are valued at their
actual or real value and one-fourth, one
tbird or one-half of this amount taken lor
the assessed value, upon which the tax rate
is levied. '
Twenty counties appear to use the esti
mated real value as a basis for taxation, and
Secretary Edge reports tbat there is a grow
ing tendency on the part of the County Com
missioners to use full value as tbe basis for
taxation.

Allow tne to add my tribute to the ef
ficacy of Ely's Cream Balm. I was suf-f-ring
from a severe attack of influenza
and catarrh and wis induced to try your
remedy. The result was marvelous. 1
could hardly articulate, and in less than
twenty-four hours the catarrhal symp
toms and my hoarseness disappeared,
and I was able to sing a heavy role in
Grand Opera with voice unimpaired. I
strongly recommend it to all singers,

Young Lady
in the civilized world looks forward
to the time wheu she will be the
possessor of one. But which
of the different machines in
the market will answer all
of her purposes best id
a very
IMPORT JXTQUESTI0X
for her to decide. Because, a ma
chine is too expensive to make
frequent changes. A machine
that is
Poorly Constructed
and liable to crt-t out of order, is an
endless anuovance and vexation to
its owner
THE

great variety of useful and

vince anyone of the
ua eri rity of tne
W HITE
But many v: nable improvements hav
been added t the ;machine since thos
were held. Among them the best, mcav
convenient and practicable set of
STEEL ATTACHMENTS
yet invented. Another argument in itc
favor is that competing agents only
claim their machines
TO DE AS GOOD AS THE
Ladies should consider their own inter
ests and carefully examine THE WHITE
before buying a Sewing Machine. It wa
put on the market in 1S77, when the mar
ket was glutted with Sewing Machine,
and it has never been sold except on ite
merit?, and as a proof of its appreciation
by tbe public,
