During the past two weeks the papers
have had much to say about the decora-
ton of soldiers graves at most of the
towns and cities, which took place the
last of May The Democrats are greatly
rejoiced because the graves of rebel sol
diers were also decorated in many plac-

funny to talk about working coal vein
which is only between two and three
inches thick.

forces routed the soldiers who were
fighting to save the national existence
from the assaults of Democratic treason

give you a machine for nothing, if
you'll do it."
"Good as wheat, said the farmer,
ana he searched over the pile for & red

burn it q little, and then soaring him
self on the sidewalk, he seized the red
cob with regular old plantation grip
in one hand, while be held the eur

unehoke it, tie old farmer coOlly got
up, and pitching his hslf-shelled ear
into the pile, said he to the peddlsr:

The Eye.

The eye shows character. The
ewes of great warriors have always
been gray, their brows lowering like
thunder clouds. Inventors have large
eyes, very full. Philosophers, the
most illustrious, have large deep-set
eyes. The poets all have large, full
eyes; and musicians eyes are large
and lustrous. Button considers that
the most beautiful eyes are the black
and the blue. Byron says the ga
zelle will weep at the sound of mt
sic. The gazelle'5 eyes have been
called the most beautiful in the
world, end the greatest compliment
al Arab can pay his mistress is to
compare her eyes to a gazelle's
Cleopatra had black. Mary Queen
of Scots had liquid gray eyes. DARK
eyes show power, light eyes gentle

There is great magnetic power in the

The lions TIE tigers, and the serP

this highly moral and inTigoratine
pastime was seen yesterday after
noon, at brick building going up at

on the mansard roof, and could not

on in front Of the building. Several
little girls, ranging from ten to twelve
years, had taken up a position in the
third story windows, whence thew
amused themselves by dropping frag-

a Dance without stsmiIe.

They have a singular kind Of
dance conducted on the greens of
country villages in Russia. The
dancers stand apart, a knot Of young
men here. a knot Of young maidens
there, each set By itself. and silent
as a crowd Of mutes A piper breaks
into a tune, youth pulls of his nat,
aud challenges his girl with a wave
and bow. If the girl is willing,
she waves her handkerchief in token
of assent, the youth advances, takes
a corner Of the keTchief in his hand,
and leads bis lassie round and round
No word is spoken and no laugh is
heard Stiff with cords and rich
With bFGids, the girl moves heavily
by herself, going round and round,
and never allowing her partner TO
touch her hand The pipe goes
drOning on for hours in the same sad
key aud measure and the prize Of
merit in this "cireling," as the dance
is called, is given by the spectators
to the lassis who in all that summer
revelry, has never spoken and never
smiled.

How 10 Get Along.

Pay as you go.
Never fool in business matters.
Do not kick every man in your
path.
Learn to think and act for your
self.
Leep ahead rather than behind the
times.
Don't stop to tell stories in business
hours
Have order, system, regularity and
also promtness.
Do not meddle with business you
know nothing OF.
Use your own brains rather than
of others.
A man of honor respects bis worc
as be does his bond.
No man can get rich by setting
around stores and saloons.
If you have a place Of business
be found there when wanted
More miles can be made in one aay
bv going steadily than by stopping.
Help others when you can' out
never give what you cannot anord
because it is fashionable.
Learn 10 say No. No necessity oi
swapping it out dog fashion, but say
it firmly and respectfully.
