Jesus rowards tho woman, though
sho had mistaken Ideas about his
character and his work; but ono thing
sho know sho was sick and thero was
a healer; sho touched him and that
brought blessing and benediction. Je
sus did not stop to raise questions as
to hor charactor or criticise her for
her conduct. Ho responded to the
weak faith and the earnest deelro of
tho woman, "And said unto her,
Daughter, thy faith hath mado thee

Who touched mo? Christ waits for
tho answer, although tho disciples Bald
unto him, "Thou seest tho multitude
thronging to thee, and sayest thou,
who touchod mo?" And Jesus waits
until tho woman tolls him all tho truth
and goes awuy not only with a healed
body but with her sins forglvon and
tho affectlonato approval of Jesus
There is a vast difference between
thronging about Christ and touching
him; tho supreme thing Is to get at
him. Having received blessing from
Christ It Is our duty to mako his will

PROPER PACKING
OF IMPORTANCE
Careless and Unfair Preparation
Causes Immense Loss to
the Producer.
(Hy M. aonUHTS CONOVEn, Now Jer-
Boy.)
Uecauso of tho circuitous route
from producer to consumor, farm
products actually havo a greater mone
tary valuo at tho consumer's end, al
though thoy havo greatly deteriorated
In qunllty,
This Increase In monetary valuo Is
duo to the merchant's profits, their
cost of handling and tho losses which
they entail In tho decay of tho porlsh
able products.
Theso conditions which decrease tho
producer's returns and augment tho
prlcb to tho consumer, can only bo re
lieved when a more simple system of
transfor from country grower to tho
city retail buyer has been evolved.
Theso Is, however, ono source of loss
which can, to a certain extont, be on
vlatod; that Is that loss of porlshablo
fruits nnd vegetables which ariscB
from carejess packing und bulky pack
ages requiring rehandllng of tho con
tents. Careless and unfair packing by tho
producer receives retribution moro
quickly than do tho dishonest, scant
packages and measures of tho middle
man except where special legislation
is oporatlng against thom.
Tho man who makes a practlco of
poor packing quickly undoes hlmsolf
an amount sufficient for tho nvorago
buyer. Such can bo passed on to tho
consumer without tho repacking that
ia necessary where a greator bulk of
tho fruit is massed togothor.
Potatoes, turnips, carrots, beets and
such fruits as apples, pears and
quinces so packed and graded that
they will keep for Beveral wooks aro
best shipped in a barrel.
Tho standard produco barrel, ac
cording to tho Now York atato law,
must mcasuro 17 inches, head diam
eter, 28 inches length of stavo, with
tho bulgo not less than G8 Inches, out

Such a barrel holds thrco bushels,
and when filled with potatoes must
weigh 174 pounds.

has ombodled in tho form ot a bill
Introduced irf tho Iioubo. Ho propoBos
that a tax shall bo imposed so light as

but ovory puff of smoko from burning
tobacco will represent a part ot a
Bystom of highways.
Tho plan contemplates trunk lines
connecting tho capitals ot tho different
states with' tho national capital at
Washington and with each other and
running to tho different national
parks. Tho cost of construction Is to
bo paid out of a tax similar to that of
1879 on tobacco. It Is calculated that
tho tax will ralso ?80,000,000 a year,
