Local PAPERS.

No man who owns a foot of
ground, or is interested in the
prosperity and future growth of
his town or county should neglect
to take his home paper. The
local press is an index, in a great
measure, of the condition of the
county in which it is published.
And if o mean, dribbling, and
niggardly supper is gwen, it
must exc but a sickly, miserable
existence, rejecting little credit
upon itself or any locality in
which it is published, aud exert
ing no influence for good or evil
on the place Or its people.
When our people refuse to take
theirlocal paper, and send away,
paying in advance for some East
ern publication, made up in
many il stances from the frag.
ments of some daily paper. they
stand in their own light, and
commit a folly which they will
probably become cognizant oil
when it is too late to make
separation for the oversight.
An enterprisiDg home paper
should be encouraged at al
times. It reflects the business Of
the place in which it is publish
ed; it champions the interests o.
the people where located, and
gives prestige and prominence
to the country of its adoption
AS a recorder of passing event:
it is the daily history of the
community in which it is edited

how Drunkards are Made.

Not one in a thousand of these
persons arrested on the charge
of drunkenness and disorderly
conduct'' walked deliberately to
a saloon for the purpose of be-
coming intoxicated. A spree is
most always the result of mean.
lest accident in the world. A
lyoungster begins to take like
Paul said a s.little wine for the
stomach's sake to allay a pain on
the invitation of friends, joins
in a social glass, Or when he
meets a real bosom crony they
lliquidate the debt they owe to
life with beer.
With some temperaments it is
nearly, if not quite impossible to
take one drink without taking a
second, and so on to drunken
mess. A man has no reason to
take credit to himself for being
able to drink and know exactly
when and where to stop as many
boast, for it is something over
which the intellect has no con-
troll, reasoning faculties a r e
powerless to command.
How exceedingly few are there
who for a life time can drink
with moderation. There are
many who claim to do it, but the
poison is instilled into the blood,
the constitution is weakened
which ushers an early decay.
Alcohol is one of the greatest
enemies to life. When it is in
his stomach, we would like to
see the orator who can make a
better speech, the editor who
lean write a better article, the
merchant who is shrewder in a
trade, or the general who is
wiser in command. We may
disguise it in any color, we may
know it by any name dilute il
as we may, it is the same serpent
that charms and is ever ready to
strike with deadly venom
A majority of the best serm'
ons ever preached might have
had for a text: "Lead us not into

It is questionable whether

be heard from little urchins, and
from children from a larger
the significant song OF
IsShoo Fly" There is more in
that exclamation than one would
think at first blush. We always
feel as if our "star had gone
down" when we hear it, and
sometimes it becomes a query
with US
WHO WILL SHOo THE FLY2
This worlds a world of sin and woes,
Which sadly needs reforming;
But still upon its purse it goes,
Despite our growls and storming,
We want bold men to fill each branch
Look danger in the eye;
l"Shoo Flyl" we cry, when perils reach
But who's to shoe the fly?
Each folly new that folly filings
About ms like a netting,
May well deserve a laugh, yet clings,
Until it forces fretting,
To break our clogs-to meet the blame
To lead our hue and cry
Deserves a hero's name and fame,
Who dares to shoe the fly?
We bell the cat ut risk of claw,
But stings smart worse than scratches
We live meath many an absurd law,
Which gals us where it touches;
But still tits less to bear thej@ke
That twists ~oursnecks away,
Than face the scorn, the sneer, the yoke
On him who Shoes the dy?
