Ours was a whaling village. Two thirds of the male population were bred to the sea. Every boy knew the ropes of a ship as soon if not sooner than he did bis multiplication tabid. Ours wa. a "traveled" community. They went nearer the north and south poles than nost people of their time, and Behring trails, the Kamtuchatkan coast, the sea of Japan, Rio Janeiro. Valparaiso, the Sandwich islands, the Azores and the names of many other remote localities were words in every one's mouth, and words, too. which we were familiar irtth from chiluhojd. Many of our whalers had touched at San Francisco and Monterey.

All the old retired whaling captains wanted to go. and most of them did go. All the spruce young men of the place wanted to go Companies were formed, and there was much serious drawing up i of constitutions and r-.-irulation.

The companies bought safes in which to keep their gold, and also strange und co'mplei gold washing machines, of which numerous patterns vaddeuly sprang up, invented by Yankees who never saw and never were to see a gold mine. Curious ideas were enter tained relative to California. The Sacra mento river was reported as abounding in alligators. Colored prints represented tii adventurer pursued by theiie reptiles. The general opinion was that it was a fearfully 'iot country and full of snakes. Of the companies funned in our vicin ity some had more standing and weight than others, and meiu'oeroiiip in them was eagerly sought for. An idea pre-; Tailed tiiat when this moral weight and respectability was launched on the shores trf California it would entail fortune on all belonging to the organization. People with the lightnijig glance and divination of golden anticipation saw themselves al nsady in the mines hauling over chunks at ore and returning home weighed down with them. Five years was the longest period any one expeeted to stay. Five years at most was to be given to rifling California of her treasures, and then that country was to be thrown aside like a used-up newspaper, and the rich adven turers would spend the remainder of their days in wealth, peace and prosper ity at their eastern homes. Ho one tardea then of going out "to build np the glori oas ate of California." No one then ever took any pride in the thought that he might be called a "Calif orniaja." So they went. People who oould not go invested in men who could go, and paid half the ex of their passage and outfit on con dition that they r nould remit back half tt gold they dog.

Unt pooplo never put such brilliant anttcipaUons on the credit side of the account, and merely Ixva.wu that at the last they are not ival i isod. As the winter of " "4S" watitsl the com panies, one after another, set sail for the . land of gold. Tho Sunday prvvclmg I they listened to farewell sermons nt . church. 1 rvtvlleot swing a score or tw.i of the young Argonauts thus pnv.clied j I to. They were admonished from the i pulpit toUvhave temperately, virtuously, wisely and piously. How seriously they , listened.

How pronounced tho croak ! of their tight boots as they marched up I the aisle. How brilliant the hue of their neckties. How patiently and resignedly ' they listentsl to the sail discourse of the minister, knowing it would 1h the last i they would hear for many mouth. How eager the glaucea they cast up to the church choir, where sat the girls they were to marry on their return. How few returned. 'How few married the girl of that period's choice. How little weighed the words of the minister a year after ward in the hurry scurry of the San Francisco life of "-19-40, What an innocent, unsophisticated, in exjH'rienctsl lot were those forty odd young Argonauts who sat in those pews! Not one of them theu could bake disown bread, tnrn a flapjack, re-seat his trousers or wash his shirt. Not one of them had dug even a post bole. All had a vague sort of imprvssiou that California was a nutshell of a country and that they would see each ot her there frequently, and event ually ail return home at or about the same time. How little they realized that one was to go to the northern and one to the southern mines and one to re main in San Francisco, and the three never to moot asain! What glittering gold mines exist.nl in their brains even during the preaching of that sermon! Hole where the gold was put out by the shovelful, from which an occasional bowlder or pebble was picked out and flung away. : The young Argonaut, church being ! dismissal, took his little stiff, shiny plug j and went home to the last Sunday tea. And that Sunday night, on seeing her i home from church for the last time, he i was allowed to sit up with her almost as long as he pleased. The light glimmered long from the old homestead front parlor wiudow. The cold north wind without roared among the leafless sycamore and crashed tae branch together. It was a sad, sad pleasure. The old sofu they sat npon would be sat upon by them no more for years. For years? Forever in many c-aaea. Today, old and gray, gaunt and bent, somewhere in the gulches, "up north" somewhere, hidden away in an obscure miniug camp of the Tuolumne, Stanislaus or Mokelumne, np in Cariboo or down in Arizona, still he recollects that night as a dream. And she? Oh, she dried her eyes and married the stay-at-home 6ve years after. A girl can't wait forever. And besides, bad reports after a time reached home about him. He drank. He gambled. He fonnd fair friends among the senoritas. And, worse than all. be made no fortune. By spnug most of the Argonauts had departed With them went the flower of the village Their absence made a big social gap. and that for many a day. The girls they left behind tried for a time to liveon hope, and afterward "took up" and made the most of the younger generation of boys. After many months came the first let ters from San Fraucisco, and then siieci niens of gold dust and gold pieces. The gold tiust came in quills or in vials, mixed with black sand In the course of two years a few of the "boys" came straggling back. The first of these arrivals. I remember, walked up our main street, wearing on his shoul ders a brilliant hued Mexican serape. It created a sensation. All the small boys of the village "tagged on behind him," a sort of impromptu iruard of honor. The geraiye was about all he did bring home. He talked a great deal of gold and brought specimen, but not in sufficient q.11Un.ity to pay all outstiiuding bills. The next of the returned was a long. paunt, vcllir.v case of Chargres fever. He brouu'lit only i;loom. Alone in 1833-1 came a few of the more fortunate who had made a "raise." Two returned and paid up their creditors in full who had been by creditors given over. But few came to remain. They "staid around" home a few weeks, turned up their noses at the email prices asked for drinks, cigars and stews, treated everybody, grew restless and were oflf again. Sometimes on visiting my native vil lage I stand before one of those old fahhioned houses, from whose front door thirty-fonr years ago there went forth for the last time the young Argonaut on his way to the ship. There is more than one such house in the village. The door is double, the knocker is still upon it, the window panes are small, the front eate is the same and up to the door tne vie stones lie upon the walk. , Rnt jthin ..n are strangers. The father and mother are past anxious inquiry of their ton. The sisters are married and live, or have died, elsewhere. A new generation is all about. They never heard of him. The great event of that period, the sailing of that ship for California, is sometimes recalled by a few a few rapidly diminishing. His name is all but forgotten. Some have a dim remembrance of him. In his time he was an important young man in the Tillage. He set the fashion in collars and the newest style of plugs. O fame, how fleeting! What is a generation? A puff. A few old maids recollect him. What a pity, what a shame that we do all fade as a leaf I TbneoUectMos treated in this chapter re to me as a commencement and an ading of ti shadows of series of com ing events.

Borne mouths ago Prmnling Elder F. A Burdick called a meeting of all the Methodist pastors of the Aberdeen dis trict in South Dakota, and put before them the plan of sowing acres of wheat for the liquidation of the church debts. The pastors took to the idea, and after talk with their people found the farmers would furnish the laud aud do the work if the church would furnish the seed. The general societies of the church, which have their headquarters iu the east, then took hold of the matter, aud shortly announced that the money for the seed should be forthcoming. The Rev. Mr. Burdick said: "We hope to have at least forty acres of wheat on every charge in the Aberdeen dUtrict, aud on some as many as sixty. As u matter of fact the church at Bath lias already started the ball rolling with sixty acres. The income from this source will be applied altogether toward the payment of church debts, and 1 confi dently expect to see several cleared away before another winter." Cor.

The electric railway there has a very steep grade about BOO feet long, and It has been found that the motors ou the cars are inadequate to sur mount the bill. To correct the difficulty a small conduit about two feet square is constructed, and in this is to r Ui a small car as a counter balance. Two ropes will be attached to the counter balance our at the top. When au ordinary car is attached to the rope the counter bal ance car runs down the hill, but when the car reaches the top of the hill it nuts down on the other side, and aided by the motor, it pulls up the counter balance car which is now ready to take up an other car.

If the kitchen is on tho sunny side of the house they will luxuriate with no other fertilizer than the soap suds of the weekly washing. The seed should be planted very early iu the season, m a rich, sunny place, as deep as six or eight inches, borne floriculturists plant them in the fallputting them down the depth of ten inches and corering the ground with rich fertilizer. They must be given something for support as soon as they are out of the ground. Buehes may be used for this purpose, but a wire gauze of large mesh, painted a medium shads of green, is prettier than anything else. The new varieties of sweet peas are con siderably larger than the old varieties and will cover a trellis from four to six feet in height. A mixture of black-purple sweet peas with the old fashioned rose and white "painted lady" looks very prU on such a trellis.
