Fairly Won.

Edward Payson Weston has at last
given all his rivals and chafiprs back
seats Last week, on Saturday uight,
at the Rinb in Newark, New Jersey, be
fairly and fully accomplished the trying
feat of walking FIVE hundred miles in
six days. He did his work in about
twenty-four minutes less than the six
days, averaging mile every fourteen
minutes and fourteen seconds. The
ieat has never been accomplished be-
fore in this country. When he conclu-
ded he was in fue physical condition,
fully as good as when the start was
made. The citizens Of Newark are to
present HIM with costly gold watch
and 81 600, as testimonial to his
pluck. endurance and determination to
keep on till he succeeded. Boys, here
is good leesson for you. Weston has
been sneered at, laughed at, and given
all manuer Of names; bat lie kept on
trying, till at last he has fairly walked
into the fullest measure Of success. 1t
is the long pull that wins. Not the
long pull at the whiskey bottle, but the
determined, persistent effort that brings
the best reward. Such work rears
mammoth shops, establishes profitable
enterprises, builds up living newspapers,
awakeDs the attention OF The Ieuple,
secures fortunes, accumulates knowl-
edge and stamps the enduring man as
one possessed OF good material.
We congratulate the plucky pedestrian
on the fair accomplishment OF his task
No holse in the world could endure
such an effort, and we doubt il there is
another man in the world possessed OF
such excellent staying qualities

CHRISTMAS.

Christmas eve was we'll remembered
in Ridgway. The Methodist had a sup
per and scioptican exhibition free, fol
the benefit of the children, which wa.
well attended and much enjoyed. Th,
E piscopalians had a Christmas tree al
Grace Church, and supper at the new
parsonage for the benefit of tie Sunday
school. The tree was certainly beauli
full and filed with many useful, aud
valuable presents. The tree was taste
fully arranged and magniGceutly illun,-
mated, and the jets of light as they
sparkled and danced before the eyes OF
the observer, seemed like the merry
boys and girls, to drink in the inspira.
tion Of Christmas time, or made one
think of million stars, that deck the
celestial dome IF heaven, perchauce d.
verting our minds TO the city of the
blest, where reigns the King of Christ
mas, and where the Christmases never
end. We have never attended a Christ
mas tree where all the children seemed
to be so well suited, aud We believe the
ladies OF Grace Church aud G. Il.
Farley are responsible for the pleasures
of the evening. After the signing Of a
few beautiful and appropriate songs by
the choir, "Christ Kin udel," m2de his
appearance, aud distributed his gifts to
the old aud young. Among the many
g;fcs we noticed that twelve boys had, as
many drums, and the younger misses of
the school were each provided with
dimiuntive tea set and doll, while the
Older misses were presented with a writ
ing desk aud toilet set. Christmas day
We were made aware Of the presence of
the drum parol, which paraded our
streets, and made nervous people wish
boys with drums were not one of the
arrangements of the universe. But
then who ever knew boy that didn't
want a drum and when once had wouldn't
Cause each particular hair, of the rest of
creation to stand on end. We have a
boy but if he should ever want drum
we intend to kill him, as a warning to
his brother boys.-or, We'll bay him
drum and let him kill everyone else.

Drunkenness isnothing but voluntary
madness.
Good wine ruins the purse, and is bad
for the stomach.
Drunkenness is an egg from which
all vices aer Matched.
Drink wine in winter for colds and in
summer for heat.
Drunkards have a FOOLS tongue and a
knave's heart.
Of wine the middle, oil the top. and
honey the bottom is best.
Passion maketh man a beast. but
wine maketh him worse.
Drunkenness is pair of spectacles
to see the devil and all his works.
Drunkenness turns man out of him
self and leaves beast in his room.
Drinking water neither makes man
sick nor in debt, nor his wife widow.
