A WOMAN'S BRAVERY.

Robert Ellis, almost Immediately
after his marriage with pretty Mary
Blake, had departed with his young
wife from his pleasant home in one of
the New England States for the
wilds of the far West, which just
then was becoming the land of prom
ise to all adventnrers of every nation.
The young couple were accompa-
MED by Roberts sister Kate, who,
like the good sister she was. had left
all the old friends, and even the lnXn-
ries of civilized life, to share with
her brother the trials and perils of
establishing a new home in the will
derness.
A few months previous Robert had
cleared track of land in Il delight
full valley and erected and furnished
a rude, but strong and comfortable
log house; so that there was very
little for the family to do when they
reached their destination, after many
DAYS of weary travel, but to settle
down quietly to the pursuits of the
new life and the new duties which
had devolved upon them.
A single year produced many
changes in the appearance of the
new home. Robert was an energetic
and enterprising man, and had al
ready begun to reap something OF the
sure reward for all his tolls. The
house itself under the judicious man
agement of his wife, aided by the
ready and willing assistance which
Kate Ellis was ever anxious to give
had begun to exhibit q pleasant and
tasteful appearance. And. added tt
this. a few families from New Eng
land, beguiled by the beauty and at
Effectiveness of the valley, had set
tied in the vicinity, a few miles apart
and thus, by mutual visits, many
otherwise-weary hours were bright
ened.
One day there came messenger
In hot haste. stating that particular
friend of Ellis was dying and had ex
pressed wish to see him. The
distance to his friends house wa
considerable, and Robert knew tha
he should be obliged to leave his wifi
and sister. alone the greater part o
the night and perhaps longer. Bot

Spend Your Money at Home.
An exchange gives the following
ten reasons why people should spend
their money at home. They are so
forcihle and well put that We can rot
refrain from presenting them to our
readers, hoping that they will give
them the consideration which they
deserve:
lst 1t is your home; You can not
improve it much by taking money
away to spend or invest.
I'd. There is no way of Improving
place so much as hy encouraging
good merchants. good schools, and
good people to settle among yon and
this,ean not be done unless you spent
yonr money at home.
3d. Spend your money ut home
because there Is where yoa general
" get it. tits .yonr duty.
4th. Spend yonr money at home,
because when it is necessary for you
to get credit, it is of your town mer-
chants you have generally to get it,
and they must wait on the money.
Therefore. when you have the cash
in hand spend it at home.
5th. Spend your money at home.
1t will make better merchants of
your merchants; they can and will
keep better assortments and sell at
lower rates than if the only business
they do is what is credited out. while
the money goes to other places.
9th. Spend your money at home.
You may have sons growing mp who
will some day be the best merchants
in town. Help lay the foundations
of them now. 1t is a duty. Itmay
he your pride in after years to say;
"By trading at the store | got my
son position as clerk, and now he
is a proprietor" Then you will
think it hard if your neighbors
spend their money out of town. Set
the example now.
7th. Spend your money at home.
Set the example now. Buy your
dry goods, groceries, meats and
everything at home, and you will see
a wonderful change in short time in
the business lookout of the place;
therefore, deal with your home mer-
chants.
Sth. Spend your money at home.
What do you gain by going off?
Count the cost; see what you could
have done at home by letting your
merchant have the cash. Strike a
balance and see if you would not
have been just as well of, besides
helping your merchant.
9th. Spend your money at home.
Your merchants are your neighbors,
your friends; they stand by you in
sickness-are your associates; with
out your trade they can not keep
your business. No stores then no
banks, no one wanting to buy prop
erty to settle on and build up your
place.
10th. Merchants should do their
advertising at home. They should
get their bill heads, circulars, cards,
letter heads, envelopes, and all their
printing at home, of their own news
papers, that aid them in many ways,
and advertise them hundreds Of times
without anv pay whatever. Mer-
chants should set an example to their
customers by patronizing literally
their home newspapers. Men and
women are initiative animals and are
prone to follow examples set them.
How can merchants expect their
neighbors to trade with them il they
set the example of going AWAY from
home for their printing and adver-
tising? Let merchants and people
all patronize home enterprise and
home industry ahI. home trade. So
shall they all be prosperous and hap
py.

to the most dreadful war Of the age,
that secession might be practiced and
q Government set up, with slavery as
its chief rne=-slone. Has it repent
ed Did il ever express regret for
this? 1t merely accepted the situation,
when slavery was overthrown and tho
South conquered. But does not every
criminal do this, even to the murder
er on the gallows? The past record,
then, of the Democratic party is the
keynote to its present character.
What it says it will do is nothing /;
what il did, everything.
The immediate issues of the canvass
will not be fully made up until the
Democratic Convention is held Mt
Erie, and its declarations put forth.
What that Convention says and does
will be worth just this: 1t will disclose
the pretense on which they propose to
GO into the canvass. Until this is
done, we will not be able fairly to con-
slider what attention they deserve.
But, in any event, there will be no
reason for ignoring the past. 1t is
full of suggestions, and affords the
best insight into the character of the
party that can possibly be hNd. 1t is
one thing to forgive, either a person
or party, but quite another to entrust
that person or party with grave re-
sponsibiities, of identically the same
character as those once betrayed. This
is exactly the case with the Demmo-
cratic party during the war and now.
1t then acted shamefully, encouraging
rebels and mocking at wounded Union
soldiers and wailing widows. 1t now
asks to be replaced in power, and to
he entrusted with responsibilities once
betrayed. Shall we forget the past
