WHAT ARE REFRlaEaA7oas FOR.


This is the season when advertise

mortgage on small corner lot. 1t

that attracted a Nankin farmer into
Detroit and into Woodward avenue
hardware store yesterday. When he
mentioned the fact that he would like

him with sunny smile, and the clerks
cheerfully barked their shins against
the stoves as they few around.
'Will you look at these ice-chests p
asked the proprietor, as they came to a
long row.
"What do I want to keep ice in a
chest for?'' growled the farmer. "What
want is something to keep provisions
cool and nice in hot weather.
"Well, here you have it. Here is the
best refrigerator made"
The farmer opened the door, looked
the box over and around, and seemed
much pleased with it. Presently he
inquired:
"What's the principle of the thing
how does she cool off the provisions 2
"You put your ice right in here, shut
the box and away she goes, was the
reply.
"Ice!" gasped the farmer.
"Why, of course. You can't run a
refrigerator without ice, can your
The farmer turned without word,
walked down stairs and out to his
wagon, and was getting in, when the
hardware man hurried up and asked:
"What's the matter ?"
"Do you think I'm a four-cornered
fool?' howled the agriculturist. "Do
you think I'm going to buy that highs

HOME LIFE.

There is chord ready strung in the
affections and sentiment of mankind
that ever gives forth the sweetest music
when touched by the influences Of
home. We cannot still its magic power
or drown its memories. Though man
might live to the age of a thousand
years and though he might, during that
period, have all the alluring things OF
earth to contribute to his pleasure, still
were he destitute of a home the real
sweetness of life would never be his.
There is a heaven-born aspiration
that ever looks to home for life's ideal
Joy, and which can never be satisfied
until it be found, where one can take
shelter from life's rude storms and live
and bask in the smiles of home com
panions. The budding affections Of
childhood, the blooming joys of youth,
the rich ripper pleasures of manhood,
with the decaying memories Of old age,
all cluster around home and its sacred
precincts. In contemplating t b is
arrangement of nature, we see the most
grandly beautiful picture, that was
ever painted on mans immortal mind.
1t is the most complete epitome of that
home life which awaits the pure "be>
yond this vale of tears Who would
forget home Who would be without
some spot around which the affections
could center, or destitute of domestic
memories ? These things awaken and
keep in exercise certain necessary re-
quirements of mans nature and with-
out which his soul would shrink up into
dry and flinty nothingness. Home life
is requirement of our nature. 1t is
the nursery and training ground OF
mans combined nature--moral, social
physical and intellectual and to bring
out these in their proper developments
is the sacred mission of our Home life.
Young man, or young woman, let
nothing wean your heart from home
and its fond associations. Parents, see
that you have attractions tor the home
life of your children, such as will render
it impossible for them in after years to
forget or throw off their influence.

MANUFACToRIEs.- While our money men
of the city are working for the public good
by investing their capital in a river bridge.
water works, street railways, gas works
and fair associations, ETC., they should not
overlook the important fact that manufaG
to employ hundreds of operatives and attract
to Austin trade from a great distance, are,
or soon will be, absolutely necessary to the
prosperity of the city. Sooner or later a
which now comes to this city will
he lost by the advent of railroads
and the building up of rival business
points, unless something be done in time to
hold that trade by giving this city a mag
netic manufacturing Importance which no
other place in the State could afford, and
which would be more than a balance for
any loss that might accrue to the city from
railroad connections and extensions IN
few shor: years. Give. Austin the Influence
and benefit of woolen and cotton manufacs
turing establishments oil factories, tanner
les, foundries, mills, carriage, wagon and i'm
-plement manufactures, etc, and then, with
the rich lands through the county brought
into thorough state of cultivation, and
the development of her building interests,
she will be able to constantly attract
to her heavy and constant trade from a
large section of country. But without
these her ability to support population of
over eighteen or twenty thousand people is
by no means probable. These matters
should be looked TO in time, for upon their
establishment depends the rapid growth
and general pros perity of Austin.
