Consistent Opposition to the Ship Sub sidy Bill. The Globe of Boston recently pub lished an Interview with National Mas ter Bachelder in which he said that the national grange, Patrons of Hus bandry, had won two notable victories in congress at the session just ad journed a "The amendment to the denatured alcohol law enacted at the first session of the Fifty-ninth congress, which was adopted In the closing hours of the second session, Just closed, enables farmers to engage in the production of denatured alcohol, which under the provisions of the law as first enacted could only be done by large distillers, by allowing the denaturing to be done In locked tanks in distilleries which may be established upon any farm. "It also provides for the transporta tion of the product by pipe linos and in tank cars, which will materially re duce the cost to the consumers. This legislation was opposed by the distill ers' trust and by those representing monopolies whose product will be dis placed by denatured alcohol as a source of heat, light and power at re duced cost to consumers. The influ ence of the national grange, composed of about a million members In thirty states, was a powerful factor in secur ing the passage of the original bill and this amendment "For more than ten years this great farmers' organization in Its national and state conventions has unanimous ly opposed the ship subsidy proposition in every form. The emasculated ship subsidy bill, which was forced througli the house by questionable means this winter, . but defeated in the closing hours of the senate, was fought by ev ery available means by the grange, and it is a matter tt satisfaction to the members of this organization in all sections , of the country that the bill was defeated. "The opposition of the grange was based upon what it believes to be sound economic principles without a tinge of partisanship in its action, and the opposition to the measure by tho representatives from the great agricul tural states of the central west, Ir respective of political affiliation, Is evi dence of its loyalty to the interests of agriculture In opposing it I regard the result upon these two measures the greatest victory the grange has ever won in national legislation iu the Interests of the farmers of the coun try." GRANGE LIFE INSURANCE. Report of Speoial Committee on Sub Jeot to New York State Grange. Your committee appointed to investi gate and, if considered feasible, to sug gest a plan of life Insurance to the state grange at the regular annual meeting in . February would respett-. fully reports that after careful consideration- of the matter it has decid ed it advisable not to submit any plan of life insurance to the state grange at the present time and would recommend that no action be taken by the life in surance association at this meeting for these reasons: First. There appears to be no de mand for such an association by the Patrons of the state; second, fraternal and co-operative life Insurance appears to be still in an experimental state. Statistics tell us there are about 100 fraternal companies In associations do ing business at the present time in the United States, that their total risks are about $7,000,000,000 distributed in G0O, 000 policies in round numbers. The old est of these associations has been in ex istence not much over thirty years, while the great majority are of very recent date. In addition to these, there are the records of seventy or eighty others that were organized with en thusiasm, flourishing for a tfme and finally going the way of all the living, leaving thousands of their members poorer, but wiser. There are undoubtedly many co-operative associations as safe and reliable as the old line companies, but their rates are necessarily nearly or quite 'as ' high as those of the great life' Insur ance companies. Life insurance Is a much more complicated and difficult problem to deal with than fire insur ance, and It does not appear to your committee that it would be wise for any one state grange to enter into com petition with all the other companies now in the field in the business of life Insurance. This brings us to a third and very Important reason,; The na tional grange at its last meeting In November at Denver, Colo., took up the matter of life insurance and dis cussed it thoroughly with the assist ance of men who were experts in the business. The mattor is now In the hands of a committee of the national grange. If a safe and reliable ptan of fraternal or co-operative life Insurance can be devised and put in operation by the national grange, the initiative would seem to be In the right place, and it would be unwise for one or more state granges to adopt plans which might conflict with It or with each other. Another grange national bank was organized recently in Pennsylvania. Why do we not hear more of grange banks in other states? If they operate successfully In one state, why not in another? New grange halls are arising In sev eral state. Good sign! The Charming Woman. Is not necessarily one of perfect form and features.

Edward Sam Gordon puted to be a wealthy Coos Bay lum- uernmn, ana nis divorced wife, who travels under the name of Miss Ber tha Etta Lurch, urilnatoit thai troubles arising from the suit insti tuted several weeks ago by Gordon against Miss Lurch. Gordon alleged that the woman was nothing to him, but she falsely claimed to be his wife ana unaer this guise attempted to obtain a share of his endeavored to secure a decree from me courts forever barring her from any right to his lands. Miss Lurch came hack ana nlttariw resisted the suit alleging that she was uiarnea io uoraon in Vancouver, Washington, but Gordon stated that aiiomer man impersonated him at the ceremony. His suit w finniiv withdrawn and he allowed the woman to file a Suit for dlvnrcn mnlrlno. rn contest and agreeing to give her prop erly vaiuea at ?uuuo. Before the deeds were iransierrea another woman ap peared on the scene and rlslmpii aha was Gordon's wife by a previous mar riage ana intimated that she would bring a bigamy charge against him. Investigations wer at. ed and it was ascertained that the strange woman had no foundation on which to rest her case, that she had never seen Gordon, and that she was probably attemntine tn evtnrt from him. She finally disappeared. Miss Lurch finally gave Gordon a quit claim deed to his property, and papers iransierring to her $6000 worth of real estate were turned over to Gordon, who will holH thAm until the debts that Miss Lurch has piled up against him can be liquidat ed. She will then receive the balance that remains. DON'T DIE AT 45. Cure the Indigestion Which Is So Liable to Lead to Apoplexy. People who suffer with headache, giddiness, palpitation, bad taste in the mouth, drowsiness, distress after eating, and any of the other distress ing results of indigestion, are in ser ious danger. Their digestive organs cannot care for the food properly and hence the coats of the blood vessels in the brain get little nourishment, be come brittle, and finally yield to the fierce blood pressure and one Is then ' said to have had a "shock," be para lysed, or die from apoplexy. In all diseases of digestion and nu trition the prescription called Mi-o-na has proven itself of great value. It is relied upon today as a certainty to relieve the worst troubles of indiges tion and makes a complete cure. That Ml-o-na will cure the worst forms of stomach trouble, cancer ex cepted, and give quick relief In In digestion is proven by the guarantee Huntley Bros Co. give with every 60- cent box to refund the money unless Mi-o-na cures. A guarantee like this must inspire confidence. Shannon-Kellogg.
