A Prominent Granare Worker of New York State. Mrs. S. N. Judd, past lecturer of the New York state grange, was born in the town of Stockbridge, Vt, on a farm upon the banks of the White river. Her earliest recollectIonsare of an invalid father and a devoted moth er. After the father's death the moth er, youDg, ambitious, of ignore than or dinary ability, determined to give her son and daughter the benefits of a higher education, although possessed of limited means. The subject of this sketch commenc ed teaching at an early age, being fif teen years of age in March and begin ning her first school in ..the following May. Afterward she was fitted for college in Burr and Burton seminary of M a n Chester, Vt., and enter ed the sopho more class In St. Lawrence university, Can ton, N. Y., In 1869. craduat " w Ing with honors in 1871. Immediately afterward she accepted a position as French and German teacher in Goddard seminary Barre, Vt In 1873 she became tbe prin cipal of White seifiinnry, the female seminary of Clinton Liberal institute. Clinton, Oneida county, Nl Y., and final ly married her classmate, Sylvester N Judd, and has since resided on the fam ily homestead near Canton, N. Y. In April, 1889, she joined Silas Wright grange, No. 427, and was al most immediately elected lecturer. holding that office until she re&ised to serve longer. She was elected lecturer of St. Lawrence County council in 1891 and re-elected In 1S91-92. She was elected Ceres of New York state gran; in 1892-93, county deputy of St. Law rence in 1893-94, master of Coventry council in 1894, state lecturer in 1894, lady assistant steward of the New York state grange in 1898 and lecturer of the state grange in 1900, being the first lady to hold that office. In every office, of high or low degree. It has been her pride to fill that 'office acceptably, to put into it her best thought and most earnest effort THE FARMER. As Others See Him and aa Seen by Hlnuelf. J. T. Allman, secretary of the Penn sylvania state grange, remarks that recently at a grange picnic a gentle man, not a farmer, extolled the farmer to the skies. As he saw it, the farmer Is the most independent roan in the land. He can scarcely know a want that he cannot himself supply. His wife enjoys a paradise, and his chil dren are the healthiest happiest and most contented to be found anywhere. There is nothing of which he can justly complain. Soon after a farmer who owns two good farms and a house in town was heard to say: "The farmer is not respected by any body. He gets no public recognition When he goes among other people he Is sneered at as only a farmer. He is dls criminated against by legislators and business men. He pays the bulk of the taxes, and others fix his prices for him A $200 check will be required to pay my taxes this year. I am tird of It. My properties are in the market." There is some truth in what the first man said, too much truth in1 the state ment of the second. The mission of the grange is to realize for the farm as far as possible the dreams of the first and to correct the evils complained of by the second. A Maine Method. Sabbath Day Lake grange at New Gloucester, Me., was dedicated recently by State Master Gardner. To accom plish the ownership of a new hall a company was incorporated and stock sold at $10 per share to defray the ex pense. This was disposed of mostly among the members of the grange. In this there is a suggestion to other granges having a new building in con templation. The hall is 33 by 00 feet on the outside and cost $2,000. It is a neat and well arranged structure, with dining hall and kitchen below, while the upper story contains the main hnll and anterooms. There is a fourteeh foot stage, with all the conveniences necessary for theatrical and other per formances. i A Good Record. There are these four stars in the grange diadem, the correction of rail way traffic abuses, the secretary of ag riculture as a member of the president's cabinet, the pure food laws and the de livery of rural mall, a quartet of achievements thnt are the result of years of hard, earnest, persistent work, years in which self was not considered, ease was not consulted and failure was not thought of by the men in whom the grange reposed a trust that was never betrayed. It is an honor to know these men. It Is a pleasure to enjoy the re mits of their labor. T. D. Akins. Mrs. wattle Wilson, worthy Ceres of the national grange, has the honor of organizing the first Illinois Juvenile grange and has named It Edgewood grange. It Is In the bounds of Magnolln grange, Putnam county, and had nine teen charter members. PORTLAND MARKET. Portland Ore. Nov. 25.

CRANBERRIES ARE ADVAHCED. A car of frozen cranberries arrived in from New Jersey this morning, but was unnnoruse ana was rejected by the commission men who it was consigned. This caused a scarcity in the supplies ana tne price went up to fu. Grapes are very few and what stocks are now in the market are bringing higher fig ures. Apples find a ready sale, but of the entire receipts the noorer grades find the most welcome call. This is on ac count of the much cheaper price. Some tomatoes are in trom California and are quoted at $1.25 a box. Celery is in large receipt with tbe price at 60 cents. poultry very wbak.

WEAKNESS 642 1-J Congress St. Poetl.vi), Mum. Oct. 17, 10M. I consider Win cf Cardni nupsrior to an dxctor'a medicine I erer uaed and I know whereof I apeak. I Buf fered for nin months with suppressed menstruation which completely pros trated me. Pains wonld shoot through mjr back and sides and I would hare blinding headaches. My limbs would well up and I would feel so weak I oould not stand up. I naturally felt discouraged for I seemed to be beyond the help of physicians, but Wine of Oardui oame as a God-sand to me. I telt a change for the better within a week. After nineteen days treatment I menstruated without suffering the agonies I usually did and soon became regular and without pain. Wine of Cardui is simply wonderful and I wish that all suffering women knew of its good qualities. Treasurer, Portland Economic League Periodical headaches tell of fe male weakness. Wine of Cardui cure permanently nineteen out of every twenty cases of irregular menses, bearing down pains or any female weakness. If you are discouraged and doctors have failed, that is the best reason in the worid you should try Wine of Cardui now. Remember that headaches mean female weakness. Secure a 81.00 bottle of Wine of tajrdui today. Climatic Cures. The influence ot climatic conditions in the cure of consumption is very much ove. drawn. The poor patient, and the rich patient, too, can do much better at home by proper attention to food diges tion, and a regular line of German Svrup. Free expectoration in the morning is made certain by Uerman byrup, so is a good night's rest and the absence ot that weakening coughing and debilitating night sweat. Restless night and the ex haustion due to coughing, the greatest danger and dread of the consumptive, can be prevented or stopped by taking German Syrup liberally and regularly. Should you be able to go to a warmer clime, you will find that of the thousands of consumptives there, the few who are benefited and regaiu strength are those who use Uermgn Syrup.
