COURAGE TO DO RIGHT.

We may have courage, All Of u5,
To start at honor's call.
Tymeot foe, protect friend,
Or face a cannon ball;
To show the world one hero lives,
The foremost in the fight
Bot do we slEayB manifest
The courage to do right
To answer mol with steady breath,
And quick uufaltsring tongue,
When fierce temptation, ever near,
Her syren song has sung;
To care DOT for the bantering tone,
The jest, or studied slight
Content Il we can only have
The courage to do right!
To step aside from Fashions course,
Or custOm'S favored PLAN
To pluck an outcast from the strest,
Or help q fsIloW-mRnS
II not, then let Us noJly try,
Heloef0rth with all eur might,
In every case to muster up
The courage to do right

In buying -four, always look at
the color. If it is white, with a
slight straw color tint in it, buy it I;
but refuse it ifitisa blueish white,
or has small black specks in it..
Then wet a little of it, and knead it
between the fingers, and if it works
sticky, it is poor. Try it again by
squeezing some of it in your hand.
If it retains the shape given it by
the hand, it is good sign.

And those within butt to get out again.

certains int6r&ts locaux gagnent a 6tre
soutenus ct discutes par des membres
des deux parts. Ces deux hypothesis
suffisent pour demontrer que Ia mino-
rite devrait avoir une representation.
Voici lie moyen auquel on Gu re-
cours dams PIllinois pour arriver au but
dfsire. L'Etat etc divise en- districts
qui ont droit chacun a trois represen-
tants. Tout electeur peut voter pour
trois candidats, pour deux GU pour un
seul. Sill vote pour trois, il donne e.
videmment un seul suffrage chacun.
Sill vote pour deux, lpeut donner deux
sutfrages un candidat ct un suffrage
a lautre, ou un suffrage ct demi a cha
Gun. Sill vote pour un seul, son suffrage
en- vaut trois. De cette maniere, un
parti qui he compte que lie quart plus
un des electeurs dun district est tou-
jOurs STR d'elire un representant sill
:, sut cOncentrer ses voix sur un seul
candidat. Les habitants de PIllinois
paraissent fort contents de leur coup
d'essai les journaux des deux parts
experiment une satisfaction a peu pres
egale, ct CONNIE il ne s'agit Ia que dune
victOire de la justice, sans distinction
de parti, on doit feliciter l'Etat qui
Went de la remporter. IL est possible
dependant que Ia nouvelle combinaison
offre des inconvenients imprevus. Tout
en- louant l'intention, qui est evidem-
ment excellente, on ne peut encore por
ter un jugement defnitif sur lie systeme.
