A Pennsylvania woman gave birth to five children three girls and two boys, The San Francisco Examiner announced the event in its headlines thusly "Queens full on Kings." In order to compensate the farmers for patting wool on the free list the dear ocracy put diamonds on the same list, Hereafter sheep owners will wear dia monds in their shirt fronts and Cleve . land badges on the seats of their pants The Spokane Review gives this esti mate of Grover Cleveland : "Contem porary estimates .of public men are often faulty. Dullards have been exalted and genius curbed and condemned in all ages', but history generally sets things straight. It will do so with Mr. Cleveland. Of Grover Cleveland history will record that there is scarcely a parallel in American public life for so complete a failure in time of profound peace and natural plenty: A man of narrow range and ordinary environment, he was called to "the presidency by sheer luck, accidency and the singular pivotal influence of New York state in national politics. Starting with the assumption that he whs better and wiser than all other men, he has learned nothing. but to grow more set in his hastily - couched J views on finance and the tariff. The country has simply found him out at last. During his first administration the man was never tested, for the reason that the re publicans retained control of congress. ,'Thb Chronicle wishes once again to rnrge a matter it has many times pre- "viously urged the formation of repub- : ; lican clubs in every precinct in the - county. A thorough ' organization throughout the county by those who be-1 -' lieve in republican principles will be a : source of vast benefit. There is no dis " couragement in small numbers. A club of half a dozen will become a 'power for good in less populous precincts, and it 'will.grow amazingly. With this begin ninrg, a president and secretary may be jhosen, aud correspondence opened with the Young Men's. State Republican club at Portland, which body will cheerfully forward all necessary information, in cluding hints for a constitution and by laws, etc. Every voting precinct should have its club, that Us influence' for good may be doubled. There are some fifteen ' precincts in the county, besides The Dalles. Each of them should form a republican club and get in touch with f the great movement of the times, which is conspiring to defeat incompetent dem ocratic rule and reetore prosperous gov ernment. The dispatches yesterday say that in New Hampshire the trend of public opinion is even being shown in town elections, some of them -which jhave been democratic for years swing ing into the republican column. This is right. Wherever there is a chance tq show disapprobation of . democratic methods let it be done, and even the smallest precinct ia not too humble to ' exhibit the proper spirit. The first ...step to wards, this end is organization. FARM PHILOSOPHY. The more you love yourself the less you are sure to love others. A trifling dog is generally not half as trifling as the man who keeps him. Some fellows kick a horse every time thev enter his stall and then wonder why he does not love them. ' '' The stalk of corn that grows the tallest and appears the. most conspic uous nearly always bears a blasted ear, . Prodigality is no sign of generosity. It rather indicates a narrowness of both mind and heart too contracted to comprehend the real value of things, Deserving Praise We desire to say to our citizens, that for veara we have been selling Dr, King's New Discovery for Consumption Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve - and Electric Bitters, and have, never handled remedies that sell as well, or that haye given such universal satisfaction.

There are more ants to the square mile in Florida than , in any - other country in the world, says a writer in the Savannah News." There are ants which will measure more than half an inch in length, and then there are ants so small that they can scarcely be seen to move with the unaided .eye. There are red ants and black ants and troublesome ants. But, as bad as they are, Thave never heard of them eating1 out the seat of a man's trousers, as a missionary, Rev. Mr. Wilson, once told the writer he saw the army ants do in India while the man was sitting- -on the earth for a few minutes beside him. But the Florida ants will take out the lettuce and other minute seeds from the soil in which they are plant ed, and actually destroy the bed." They will suck the life out of acres of young cucumbers and melon plants, uproot strawberry plants or cover the buds with earth to such an extent. as to kill them. They will pet into pie, pickle, sauce, sirup, sugar, on meat, in hash, will riddle' a cake or fill a loaf of brker's bread till it is worthless. ' All remedies failing1, 1 took to . bait ing them near their nests with slices of meat, bones, apple and pear - par ings, and when I had from fifty thou sand to one hundred thousand out turned a kettle of boiling water on them. I have killed during the last week "over one million in the space of a quarter-acre lot, and I have almost whipped them out. I had to do this to secure any lettuce plants, and many observant farmers complain Of seeds men when they should attribute their troubles to insects. . It is very curious and instructive . to see how promptly the ants which es cape the scalding po to work taking out the dead, and, after pulling: them outside first, then jro to excavating again and rebuilding' their cells and runways. This being done vefy quick ly the next work on hand is the laying in of a supply of food by hauling the dead bodies of the hot-water victims into their storehouses. You may see a small black ant haul ing and tugging- at the carcass of a red ant twenty times its own weight, and he always succeeds in the end in haul ing it in the warehouse of the colony. Next you may see a sort of ambulance corps searching for the disabled. These are taken to the underground house, where the surgeons and nurses are in waiting. ' Then, too, you may', see the timekeepers and bosses - directing- this one or turning- another back on some errand or to some other - duty. - There is not a moment's delay, no halting feet, no idle hands, but all move as if it was their last day on earth and this was the only hour left in which - to redeem a misspent life. For lessons in industry and perfect government go to the ants. PLAIN .SPOKEN. The Good-Natured Criticism of a .Well- Meaninjr Nelsriibor. The amount of plain speaking that people will bear from one of whose good will they are assured is sometimes surprise to others. In "Recollect tions'of My Mother." Susan Lesley says that her mother had the greatest affection for both David Lee Child and his wife, the gifted Lydia Maria, but was often much tried with the amount of time, hard labor and money which Mr. Child expended on scheme after scheme, .none of whiclj ever suc ceeded. ' , One afternoon Mrs. Child came in to spend a quiet afternoon with mv mother. They sat with their sewincr and ' knitting at the west window-, while I sat with one or two friends- in the hall near the open door. Thee had been a ltncr' silence, when we heard my mother say: Mrs. Child, can you tell me what is. the last thing that your husband- is en gaged in?" An amused smile played' over Mrs. Child's face. . "Yes, Mrs. Lyman; he is carting- stone for the new railroad." O-o-h!" said my mother. Another pause; then: ."Mrs. Child, how much do you suppose your husband loses on every load of stone he carts to the rail road?" Another amused look on the dear Lydia Maria's face, and "she answered cheerily: "Well, Mrs. Lyman, as near as I can compute it, he must lose about ten cents on every load." Oh well now Mrs. Child," said my mother, in the bravest and most cheerful .tone, "if your husband has got hold of any innocent occupation by which he only loses ten cents on a load, for heaven's sake encourage him in it." fehe had little patience with people who backed down in emergencies,- and considered it her duty to- stiffen them up a little. She never had to go far to find an illustration "to point her moral and adorn her tale." Some good neigh bor's example would instantly come to mind. Look over the way at my neighbor Hunts front yard," she would say; see that splendid hydrangea, that ele gant smoke bush, that buckthorn hedge, all in the most' perfect order. and all kept so by her own hands. Al ways she has sickness, sorrow, death; at every turn something sad and unex pected. But who ever dreamed of Mrs. Hunt's abdicating? She couldn't doit. The Greatest Pyramid. The great pyramid of Gizeh is the largest structure or any kind ever erected by the hand of man. Its origi inal dimensions at the base were 764 feet . square, and its perpendicular height in the highest point is 488 feet: it covers ' four acres,, 'one rood and twenty-two perches of ground, and has been estimated by an eminent English architect to have cost not less' than 30,000,000, which in United States cur rency Would be about $145,200,000. In ternal evidences proved that the great pyramid was begun about the year 270, B. C, about the time of :the birth of Abraham. It is estimated that about 5,000,000 tons of hewn stone were used in its construction, and the evidence points to the - fact that these stones were . brought a distance of about 700 miles from quarries in Arabia.
