Editors JOurnal:


Editors Journal;
IF you will be so indulgent as to
give these few remarks a place in
your columns, you will confer a favor
upon the Urttey., if not upon the
community at large. Our object is to
call attention to the fact that the
patrons Of the various drug stores in
this city subject their Druggists to
great Inconvenience, and lay them
selves liable TO very serious accidents
by sending small children and other
irresponsible persons, with verbal
orders, for medicines and drugs.
Mistakes are unavoidable while this
practice prevails, and who is to blame?
In the majority of instances the
blame attaches to the Apotheeary, let
him use every possible precaution.
Now we simply wish to ask, is it fair
that, while the community demands
competency. care, and precision Ia
the druggist, It should persist In the
reckless and dangerous practice TO
which We have just referred? Other
States and cities have adopted special
laws for the regulation OF the drug
business. Our State has none, and in
the absence of such laws we must
rely eatirely upon the mutual common
genso Of the parties concerned.
Hence, If il IS absolutely necessary to
send g child 10 your Druggist, do not
instruct it verbally, for the moment it
enters the door the name Of the de
sired article yanishes. Write legibly
the name of the article you wish-in
English. German or Latin-and very
many Of the present annoyances will
cease. DRUGGIST.

Civil SUITs.-The Justices cour.s
did not have a single criminal trial
yesterday, which indicates a remark
able state of peacefulness on the part
of our citizens. Civil suits are be-
coming plenty, and Justice McTernan
alone had nine yesterday. TO enforce
payment of debts. The times are so
hard, ssfnanci ally. hal it is probable
there will be a large number
of suits for debt this winter.
Those who have money should pay
bills promptly when presented. This
plan would prove beneficial to all par
ties, because it would keep the money
circulating, and make tines easier.
Some persons have a habit, as soon as
the cry Of hard times" is raised, to
put their money away, and hold on 10
If, SO as to be provided ii there
should happen to be a crash. Such
a course generally will cause q crash.
The following item, from the Gales
buggh free Press, covers the whole
question in regard to the prompt pay
ment of bills, and is worthy of eonsid-
Grafton:
Pay up. If you owe a man but a
single dollar. go aud pay bin. When
there is SO little money, keep il
moving around lively. Jim owed US,
and We owed Bill and Bill owed Jim.
jim got mad because we made him
pay one morning last week; but we
paid Bill. and Bill paid Jim, and Jim
went TO bed that night happy as a
clam, with just as much money as he
had il the morning, and three men

New YEAR RESOLVES. - We all
know what 8 common thing It is with
macy persons. when New Year comes.
to make resolves to eschew bad habits
that have SO grown upon them. that
at last they almost seem to be second

healthy or TOO expensive, "swears
off" and declares hat be viii quit

Jul y o, y hold out" a few week,
or at iurihest a few months. whep
they voluntarily 60 back 20 their old
habits. Others sgeur off drinking,
feeling that il they do not forsake the
flowing bowl" that it will be their
ruin, and again some keep their
promise, hut the mai ri,y DO rot.
We have been lei to these refec
tions by thinking about a party of
men in this city-yopng, middle aged
and old-gho, on last New Years
Day. declared they would abstain
from intoxicating drinks. Some of
these men have brilliant prospects if
they only remain true to themselves,
and cease to put an enemy in their
mouths to steal away their brains"
We are not writing an article on tenn
peraDce, but we are referring to an
actual fact. Macy persons drink in
moderation without being intoxicated
thereby; but when any one-espeeially
a young man or fair business or Pro-
f%essional prospects drinks 20 much
that he neeiects his business, then in
deed it is time to step. Therefore,
We earnestly hope that those who
have formed resolutions to break off
bad habits may have the spirit and
nerve to keep them. New Year re-
solves are only valuable when strictly
adhered to.

no items. We noticed evidences OF
