Gems Of Thought.

Gems Of Thought.
Even felicity, unless it noderates it
self, oppresseth.-Seneco.
He that studies revenge keepeth his
own wounds green.-Bacoa.
Thoughts arc but dreams till their eff
fects are tried.-.Shobepeare.
We throw our influence into the
world, good bad or Indifferent, and then
step out and are forgotten.
That was ezcalleutly observed, say I,
when | read passage in an author,
where his 5rinion agrees with mine
Spy1.
Fancies are the blossoms Of fact
purer and loyelier for their strong hold
on truth, just as the fairest roses are
grown in the finest soil.
Character is the eternal temple that
each one begins to rear, yet death only
can complete. The finer the architec-
ture, the more fit for the indwelling Of
angels.
To pardon those absurdities in our
selves which We cannot suffer in Others,
is neither better nor worse than to be
more willing to be fools ourselves than
to have others so,-Pope.
We never detect how much Of our So
cial demeanor is made Of artificial airs
until We see a person who Is at once
beautiful and simple Without the
beauty We are apt to call the simplicity
awkwardness.
Selfrespect Is the noblest garment
with which man may clothe himself
the mind can be inspired. One Of
Pythagoras's wisest maxims, in his
golden verses, is that which enjoins the
pupil to reverence himself.
Money never can be well managed if
sought solely through the greed of
money for its own sake In all mean
ness there is a defect of intellect as well
as Of heart, and even the cleyerness Of
avarice is but the cunning Of Imbecility.
-Bulrer Lytton.
[ never yet heard man or woman
much abused, that | was not inclined to
think the better of them, and to trans
fer any suspicion or dislike to the per-
son who appeared to take delight in
pointing out the defects Of a fellow

WHY Is II?

1t has always been q mystery
with us why the leading citizens of
Nirvana, and Yates township should
persist in opposition to locating the
County Seat at Baldwin. 1t must
be admitted that they are men of a
fair degree Of common sense. and
We fail to see how it comes about
that they are so blinded to their
own interests.
1t must be admitted, also, that
Chase never was the County Seat
of Lake county. Even Foster,
Towner and Warner acknowledged
it in their "information." Neither
was the County Seat legally estab-
lished at Green Dell, so-called. Not
a dollar has ever been expended on
buildings at Chase. On the. con-
trary, the structure used by the
county officials is an inferior rough
board concern, only fit for barn.
During the sessions of Circuit Court
another building is rented, at an
additional expense to the tax-pay-
ers. Chase is i'm the southeast por-
ton of the county, and at the pres
ent, of less importance than either
Nirvana or Baldwin; there being
more business done at either Of the
latter points than at Chase. In
view of these facts, why should the
citizens above alluded to strive so
energetically against Baldwin, and
thus against their own interests.
We say against their own interests,
because it is for the best interests
of every citizen of Lake county to
have the County Seat properly and
permanently located. 1t is not de-
sirable by the majority of the citi-
zens to have the County Seat per-
manently located at Chase.
1t is said that Nirvana or For
man p. o. expects to secure the
County Seat. Nothing is more i'm
probable. In fact, we think it per-
fectly safe to assert that a two
thirds vote of the Board of Super
visors never could be obtained to
designate either of the places above
named. If, by any possibility,
Nirvana, Forman, or the geograph-
ical centre should be designated,
what is there which would warrant
a belief that the proposition would
carry with the people? A careful
consideration of the matter again
leads us enquire-why is it that the
people of Nirvana and Forman pur-
sue their present course!

Physiology Of Salt in the Animal
Economy.

| have been invited to write a
scientific disquisition upon the
above subject by gentleman of
rare culture, and one who occupies
very leading position in relation
to the agriculture of our State.
Salt, or chloride of sodium, is
not only found in very constant
quantities in the blood, but is also
present in nearly all the fluids
and tissues of the body. The origin
of the salt of the body is in the
general food, as nearly all animal
and vegetable substances contain
it in minute quantities; and in the
human body, that of our domestic
animals, and often Of wild animals
is also taken separately, or UNI
combined with other substances.
The exit of salt from the body
takes place through the secretions,
but principally as an excrction cl-
minated by the kidneys. Not only
the salt which comes from the break
ing down of the tissues, consequent
upon use, is thus eliminated, but
also the surplus which may be taken
in the food above what is needed.
The function of salt for that il
is very important is certainly pro-
we'd by its considerable quantities
in the tissues and even greater
abundance in the animal fluids-has
definitely ascertaincd. It's not so
much to form tissue, as to preserve
the organs and organized fluids,
and to aid the processes. 1t has
been shown that is chloride of So
dunn of salt that keeps the albumen
of the blood in solution, and the
corpuscles in their semi-auid con-
dition. Hence the entire absence
of salt in the food, free or combined,
would be fatal to life. Again, j,

In the Compiled Laws, we find
on page 248, of Vol. No. 1, that no
Prosecuting Attorney shall "be
concerned as attorney or counsel
for either party, other than for The
Slate or county, in any civil action
depending upon the same state of
facts upon which any criminal pros
ecution, commenced or prosecuted,
shall depend" How does the
course of the Prosecuting Attorney
of Lake county, especially his affi-
davit to the truth of the informa-
ton, tally with the above?

WHEN the Chase organ grinder
first came into the county, it was
with grand flourish; with flatter-
ing promises of doing so much for
Lake. He had "come to stay" &C.,
&c. Well, the people of Lake coun-
ty have waited for something more
than a year, to see what he would
accomplish. The people of Chase
gave him support, in many in
stances, beyond what they could
really afford. The county paid him
for publishing the proceedings of
the Board of Supervisors, in. addi-
ton to the amount paid the STAR.
In payment for the support CIV
en- him, what has he done? In every
instance the course of his sheet has
been mapped out by the rule Of self
ish policy. In no case has the pa
per taken a decided stand on any
county matter, unless it was to pro-
mote its own selfish interests. In
the agitation of the County Seat
question, it took no position, what
ever. While heartily in sympathy
with the plan ofretaining the coun-
ty Offices at Chase Contrary to law
he yet would not openly advocate
the measure, through fear of losing
patronage on the west side of the
county. 1t made no difference
what Chase had done for him, he
was satisfied that the town would
not be the place where "brcad and
butter" was plentiful, and could not
afford to spoil his chances by advo-
eating measure which he had
good reason to believe would be de-
feated. His failure to advocate
the location of the County Seat at
Baldwin was through the same self
ish feeling.
A portion of the citizens endcav-
Ored to create feeling favorable
to an exhibition of the agricultural
products of Lake county. The or
gan grinder utterly neglected to
help the movement by single word
of genuine encouragement. On
the contrary, brief item in the
STAR, of recent date, favoring an
exhibition, was made the subject of
a contemplate personal attack up
OH ourselves. Heres another OPP
portunity for some Of our Nirvana
and Chase men, who assist so siren
uously in supporting the "organ,"
to read us another lecture about adj
hitting "slang" and "blackguard-
ism" into ncwspapcrs).
And now, after affecting the
people of Lake county, he bids us
adieu, and goes to Reed City to
bore the inhabitants of that thriv-
ing village. How the feeling OF
sympathy for poor, misguided Reed
City, wells up in our heart!
In assuming control of the Reed
City Clarion, he publishes an anus
ing clap-trap Of words, character
istic of him; expressing fears as tc
whether he will find enough "hon'
est" people in Reed City to war
rant him support. The only in
ference we can draw, is that he il
possessed Of the same ideas he hat
when the majority of the Board o.
Supervisors of Lake county refused
to give him the county printing
Those of the Board who favored
him were "honest;" but those who
saw fit to give the printing to the
