Ita early records are lost In the mists of receding tinio. lis very origin remains only a mutter of vague mid uncertain tradition. W know- that long boforo tho pvumids uprcarod their towering pinnacles above tho Egyptian sitnda lliut men nssiH'luted tbeuiselves toirelbor. bound by tho most solemn obligations of secrecy mid mu tual support, and that those associations taught, not only the duty of men to lova mill help oncb other, but they taught also tho doctrine of a future lilo, of tlio im mortality of tho soul, nml tho iit'cosnily of virtue, morality and brotherly love among men. We know that when tho temple of Solomon first glittered in the oriental Ntiulight that sucli an oiguiii.n tion was then in existence, nml was oven then an old iiHBociation. VYo know that whon Herodotus, tho fntlior of history, lived and wro(.e, that such a society ox. Istod that it had its secret rites that it taught the existence of a Ood, of the im mortality ol the soul, of a lilo beyond tho grave, Wo know that l'ythttgoras was a member of audi an asxociation. and that l'lato taught ils doctrines. We know that when tho great Teacher yielded up his life on tho cross such an association existed in 1'alestino. Wo know that in the early agosofChristianity Masonry, substantially as it is practiced now, exialod. Wo tlud mon associating themselves together, uniting in a philo sopbical society, teaching the doctrine of tho Immortality of tho soul and tlio unity of Ood, with an operative association engaged In the pious laborol building all over Europe churohea and cathoilrals lor tho worship of one Ood, whoae existence they bolioved In and taught.

Not only does Masonry teach tho oxist- onco ol a Ood, but it teaches tho Immor tality of tho soul. It does not attempt td prove immortality by an ar -ay of facts. It realises that the secret ol Intelligence the ultimate mystery of the soul has not, nay, never mav be solved. The chomist'haa not found it iu bis crucible ; the physicist has not discovered it be neath bis microscope; the surgeon's keenest knife has not pierced it.

TIIK LAIIiHtl.Ml WOMAN. Society of to-day is on a queer" basis, ut leust softnold-linier would express it. Tho laboring woman li now tho stirring feminine clement in the modern or rather western so cial world. ' Everywhere, wo feel how great is tho influence of tho woman who works, and e inevorjr reform or good ratiso tho effect of her zeal and faithfulness, linked to a record of hard work, with nono of the disagreeable shirked. If the woman of yesterday has been dubbed a necessury evil, the woman of to-day may lie considered a neces sity for the invention of good; for sines sho has been transformed from a beautiful hindrance to a no ble helper tho world's work has progressed as never before. Civil ization, up to tho nineteenth cen tury, tried to go on one leg, and. it was a ssir limping alluir at the best. Soviet v even in tho "5 o'clock tea" strata, is to-day run by the labor ing woman. She is the envied one who in her early career learned the dress-maker's trade, and coupling the practicality of it to her later culture and experience, becomes a leader in the idea of sense in cloth ing, and an experimenter for the benefit of all she comes in contact with. Look at Mrs. Jeaness Miller. She is tho great achiever who in her early career learned a trade or pro fession and can stand for a oroicen fortune or helpless father or hus band, and curry his projects to com jiletion. LtHik nt Mrs Frank Les lie, or the wife of tho architect of the great Rrooklyn bridge. She is tho beloved and admired lady wno in her humble homo of poverty and hard work has unconsciously uevel-oiK-d a grace of heart and quick sympathy that will hold and bind her husband's followers, from the lowly to th i mighty, and keep his ideuls and his ambitions high and pure, and, in secret, fjmooth his path of every drudgery. There are instances of this kind too plenty. We find every time that the power on the social throne as well as be hind it, is the woman who is capa ble. The girl who grows to be a woman of achievement is the girl who has harned to work. The woman who is resjsvted and influential is the woman who can do. And if you look closely into the signs of the times you will find that she is also tho woman who is most beloved. At last she is the one whose love in return counts for the most and lasts longest. Woman need not crowd man in tho field of labor. Look at the vast undone, tho great jKissibilitiesl Heretofore woman has consumed over 5 percent, of what man earned the rest counted for the world's gain. To-day she works beside him in science, art and reform, and the treusure-houso of civilization and progress is swelling for the good of tho individual nnd tho healing of the nation. tiod bless the woman who works!

Regular meeting will be held at Reaver Creek school house on the first Saturday of each month, commencing August 2d, 1890. All farmers are invited to join the Farmers' League. It is a non secret, independent, non-partisan organization, in harmony with the Alliance, the Fanners' Union, the Orange, and kindred associations, fanners' clubs, agricultural socie ties, and similar organizations; but tho league goes a step further: its object is tho farmers' political wel fare.

We hope that the work of spray ing orchards for protection of the fruit from tho codlin moth is going' on wherever tho trees are bearing Aeighborhoous should combine in this matter,. and if all the bearing trees wero sprayed for two years in succession in any locality, the moth would bo exterminated, making fur ther spraying needless unless the enemy is again introduced. Most of tho moths will bo destroyed the first season, but a few may escape and render a second trial necessary. This stamping out cannot be done by any one or two farmers, though fortunately any ono can thus pro tect his own fruit, however negli gent his neighbors may be.
