KEEP OUT OF DEBT.

Half the perplexity, annoyance ana
trouble that men have in this world Is
in consequence of getting into debt. 1t
seems to be natural for some people to
buy and incur obligations without mea-
sure, so long as they can avoid paying
away ready cash. Give one OF this sort
a chance to buy on credit, and the ques-
ton of payment are matters that he
cares but little about. But what crop
of trouble springs up from the seed OF
debt. How many grey hairs it brings,
and how often it shortens life; some
times leading men to commit suicide or
murder. And yet how easy it is to
keep clear of this terrible monster. Ev-
cry young man should form fixed and
unalterable determination, before com
mencing his active business career not
TO incur one penny of Indebtedness I'M
der any circumstances. Never buy any
thing unless you have the money to
nav for it at once. Pay no attention
to the "rare chances" splendid OPP
por,unities," "bargains," and the like.
Such are only traps set to catch victims.
If YOU see anything that you would
like to accept, lock first at your money
nile. and make the answer depend on
that. Always pay as you 60. If you
are short of money, guage your de-
mands accordingly.

M SHOOTING AFFRAY.-We learn
from the Martinsburg Statesman that
Mr.. Thomas Collins who resides at
Keefers Park, on the Winchester pike
near Martinsburg, was shot IN the
mouth and cheek on Tuesday evening
of last week, by Nelson Russler who
was in his employ. 1t seems that a
difficulty occurred between them, and
Collins becoming very angry, made an
assault upon Russler, who in running
from the house, snatched Up shot gun,
and turning, fired upon Collins, the shot
taking effect as above stated. Inc
wound, though very severe, it is thought
will not be fatal. On Thursday X. Nj.
Price, Pros. Attorney, arrested MIR.
Rasslsx and Justice Gardener bound
him over in the sum of $500 to appear
for examination. We since learn. that
Russler was acquitted upon the plea
of self defence.

Among other complications OF the new
school law, it is said that teachers GER
ti6cates only run till August 81. II a
teacher is examined on the 30th OF Au-
gust, 1875, his certificate is good for one
