II has been said that mans best
friend is dog The dog may be, but
there's something TO be said in favor
of mans walking stick. The stick
eats nothing, don't get mad. dor does
il bite its masters friend, or the mas
ter himself. Nor does il howl, growl.
or bay the moon. Nor does il cost
anything for taxes, mnzzles, collars or
chains. The stick has held its own in
every age, in every CLINE, in all the
seven ages of man. Where a dog is
apathema maranatha, as in Turkey,
the stick, is still cherished. The
babe bestrides the stick. aud "rides
his cock-horse TO Banbury cross" aud
has his switch 10 play soldiers, or wal
lop donkeys with; the lover, .'sighing
like furnace twirls his dandy cane,
which is to him as the tan TO beauty
or japanese gentleman, and the old
fogies, by stouter cousin german,
supports their hating footsteps, and
in the form of q crutch il is the last
thing the Pantaloon clings to ere he
gently slides into the grave on whose
brink he has fingered. It is, too, q
symbol of authority. The scepter
OF a king, the baton of a marshal, or
tho warder Of feudal chivalry, are but
notifications of the walking stick. A
stick is good thing to have, and a
good thing to give away. The most
expensive is not Overwhelmingly cost.

ruption can hardly be entertained in
connection with. the transfer, while
there is something eminently sympa.
thetic IN the idea of handling the neat
companion OF friend, when perhaps
oceans roll between, and continents
interpose their barriers. sort of mag
netic reminiscence of the grip of his
hand. Il may he safely assumed tha,
man with good collections of sticks
is a good fellow, one who gives and
takes, loves nat1re; in fact, in many
respects, in human, social point O
view, infinitely superior to the virtno

MAEINo CHARAcrER.-People seem
to forget that character grows; that
it is not something to be put on ready
made. with manhood or womanhood; !;
but day by day, here q little and
there little. grows with the growth.
and strengthens with the strength,
until, good or bad, it becomes almost
"a coat of mail. Look at n model man
of business-prompt. reliable, con-
scientious, cool AMI cautious, yet
clear-headed and energetic. When
do you suppose he developed all
these admirable qualities? When he
was a boy. Let US see the way In
which n boy of ten years gets up in
the morning, works. plays, studies,
and we will tell you just about what
kind OF man he win make. The
boy that is late at the breakfast table,
late at school, who never does ahys
thing at the right time, stands poor
chance to be a prompt man. The
boy who half washes his face, hall
does his chores, half learns his
lessons. will never make thorough
man. The boy who neglec his
duties. be they ever so small, and
then excuses himself by saying 20.
I forgot! didn't think" will never
be reliable man. Aud the boy who
finds pleasure in the pain and suffer
ing of weaker things, will never be a
noble, generous, kindly man.

ALWAYS NEAr.-Some folks are
very charming at evening parties,
but surprise them in the morning
when not looking for company, aud
the enchantment is gone. There is
sense in the following advice to young
ladies':
Your everyday toilet is part of
your character. A girl who looks
like fury or 'sloven' in the morn
ing is not to be trusted, however fine
she may look in the evening. No
matter how humble your room may
be, there are things wnich it should
contains mirror, washstand, soap,
towels, comb, hair. brush, nail brush,
and tooth brush. These are just as
essentia. as your breakfast, before
which you should use them. Parents
who fail to provide their children
with such appliances not only make
great mistake, but commit q sin or
omission.
Look tidy in the morning, and af-
ter dinner. work is over, improve
your toilet. Make it rule of your
daily life to dress up for the after
noon. Your dress may not, and
need not. be any better than calico.
but with q ribbon. or some bit of orna-
ment, you can have an air of self-re-
spect and satisfaction that invariab-
ly comes with being well dressed.
"a girl with fine sensibilities can.
not help feeling embarrassed and
awkward in a ragged and d rty dress
with her hair unkempt, should .
stranger or neigh0or come in. More
over your self-respect should de
mand decent apparelling of youl
body. You should make it poin
to look as well as you can, even j
you know nobody will see you bu
yourself. 8

ATTORNEY GENERAL WILLIAMS, in
one of the speeches that he took the
trouble to come all the way out to
Oregon to make last year, delicately
reminded the people OF the honor
that had been conferred upon them,
,,y the selection of himself, to fill .
place IN the Cabinet. He evidently
thinks that the people Of Oregon
ought to be satisfied with that. But
leaving the questionable matter Of
honor of the question it Is quite
certain that the Attorney General
demeans himself In Office as though
he was not aware of the fact that
there was such State in the Union
as Oregon. He takes no. notice,
whatever, of the demand made by
Governor Grover that the Lost River
murderers be turned oser TO the civil
authorities of Jackson county, there
to be tried according to law on the
indictments that have been found
against them. As the law-adviser of
the Government, the matter is subject
to his decision. If there are any le-
gal or other impedime1ts In the way
of such course, why don't he state
them? The murder of General Can
by and DR. Thomas is only small
portion of the crimes committed by
these Indians, and but few Indians
were employed in it. Does the At
torney General intend that all of
those murderers, not engaged in the
Peace Commission massacre. shall go
uBtried and unpunished? 1t certainly
looks SO. The State of Oregon has
done all that it could do in the prem
ises. It finds itself powerless to pro-
tect its citizens, aud yindicate its
laws. by furnishing crime. Govern
or Grover has done his utmost in
asserting the rights of the State.
The State finds these criminals with-
in its limits, yet-protected from ar
rest, trial or punishment by Federal
authority, acting under the direction
of the Attorney General of the United
States.-Ereainy Ne,rs

oooD TIMES ron sEwsPApsns.

The Phiiadelphia Sunday Dis
patch says: We have often thought
that the days when newspapers could
have been published to the best adj
vantage have passed. Nothing of
very extraordinary character ever
happens now; ard. as the true
journalist turns the pages Of history,
and perceives what magnificent
chances for sensation articles slipped
by nnimproved, he feels an almost
irresistible inclination to groan, and
weep, and tear his hair. Take Noah's
flood, for instance. What splendid
accounts the reporters would have
got off about the launch Of the ark
How they could have spread themsel-
yes on the entry OF the animals into
the vessel, giving an interview with
Ham and Shem, and accounts of the
qnarrels between the Kangaroo and
Gorilla; and bow they would have
rushed roubd, after the food to col
lect the list of insurances2 Then
there was Daniel. When be went
into the lions den, wouldn't the edi-
tore have got down their encyclopa-
dias and put obituary notices Of him
in type; and wouldn't they have
howled the next morning when they
found him alive aud we'll, and all
their troubles wasted? What q
splendid article his adventure in the
den would have made, given with
wood-cat of Daniel, as be sat there
prodding the lions with his alpaca
| umbrellal What is the use of hav-
ing free press, if We cannot have
sensations of such kind? And
think of David and Goiiahl Would
Mt a war correspondent of one OF
our dailies have gone crazy with de-
light over that combat. and have
written forty columns about it?
And would not the New York Herald
have rushed out its old ground plan
Of Boston. and called it a map of
locality, and muddled the brains of
its readers? And when Nero fiddled
at the burning of Rome, imagine
how the reporters would have de-
| picted the terrors of that coufiagra-
ton, and figured up the losses and
praised the FIRE department! And
how the editors would have gone for
Nero, and shaken him up and de-
nounced him. These changes are all
gone. The newspapers came too,
and now there is no.hing left for Us
but commoDplaces, So that some
times We hate to draw our salary.
