THE CURE FOE GOSSIP

What is the cure for gossip
Simply, culture. There is a great
deal of gossip that has no maIignity
in it. Good-natured people talk
about their neighbors because, and
only because; they have nothing else
to talk about. As we write, there
comes to us the picture of a family OF
young ladies. We have seen them
at home. we have met them in gall
leries Of art. we caught glimpses of
them going from book store, or a
library, with a fresh volume in their
hands. When we meet them, they
are full Of what they have seen and
read. They are brimning with
questions. One topic of converse
ton is dropped only to give place to
another, in which they are interest
ed. We have left them, after a
delightful hour, stimulated and re-
freshed; and during the whole hour
not neighbours garment was soiled
by SO much as touch. They had
something to talk about. They
knew something and wanted to know
more. They could listen as we'll as
they could talk. To speak freely
OF a neighbours doings and belong
ings would have seemed an imperti-
nence to them, and, of course, an
improperly. They had no Tempt
alton to gossip, because the doings
of their Deighbors formed subject
very much less interesting than
those which grew out of their knowl-
edge and their culture.
And this tells the whole story. |
The confirmed gossip is always
either malicious or ignorant. The
one variety needs a change of heart
and the other change of pasture.
Gossip is always personal confess
sion either of malice or imbecility,
and the young should not only shun
it. but by the most thorough culture
relieve themselves from all tempta-
ton to indulgein it. It is allow,
frivolous, and too often dirty bust
ness. There are country neighbor-
hoods in which it RACES like a pest.
Churches are splitin pieces by it.
Neighbors are made enemies by it
for life. In many persons it degen~
crates into chronic disc asc, which
IS practically incurable. Let the
young cure it while they may. DIR.

TEMPERANCE COFFEE ROOM

The Temperance Coffee Room,
No. SO Main Street, was opened on
Tuesday evening. A large number
of ladies aud gentlemen called and
partook of the refreshments prepared
for the occasion, and by their pres
ence and patronage gave encourage
ment to the enterprise.
Kenosha supports some twenty
five or thirty licensed whisky and
beer saloons. Heretofore there las
not been coffee room in Kenosha,
and no saloon or room specially
devoted to furnishing refreshments
free from whisky and beer surround
ings and influences. The Temper
ance ladies' Of Kenosha have now
opened coffee rooms where they will
furnish refreshments free from
whisky and beer surroundings and
influences. And to make the rooms
more attractive and useful they
will furnish the news cf the day and
other useful reading.
It can now no longer be said that
there is no place in Kenosha where
people can get refreshments without
being forced into whisky and beer
saloons. And it now remains to see
if the people will patronize the
Ladies Temperance Coffee Room.
An opportunity is now given for a
change of patronage. Those who
have been forced into the saloons
can find their way without force into
the coffee room. Those who have
heretofore willingly patronized the
saloons have the opportunity
willingly to patronize the coffee
room. And those who have never
patronized the saloons now have an
opportunity TO patronize the coffee
room. Will the people come to the
support of the coffee room? The
people of Kenosha have an interest
in its support. The people of the
country have like interest in its
support. And the people of the city
and Of the country can give it'theil
support and make it a success. Theil
own best interest should and WI
trust will prompt them to give it thei
encouragement and support. 1t
patronage will lsad from intemper
ance. People never become drunk.

SALEM STATION.

EDITOR TELEGRAPH Your cores
pondent has felt for some time that he
would like to tell you and your readers
tale not of the Nina Gordo sort, not a
fiction, but a real true story, and one that
the principal actors need not be asham-
ed of. It is about pet of the good
people of Salem. And now 1 will tell
you how we came to have this pet.
About year ago rumor reached Salem
that the Hon. q. G.. Simmons proposed
to donate to each town in this county
five hundred dollars to found public
library therein, provided each town
would raise one half that amount for the
same purpose. Some were incredulous
and would not believe Mr. Simmons had
ever made such an offer, not being able
to comprehend the emotions of SO gener-
Gus a spirit. Mr.. Simmons knows we'll
that the true redeemer Of mankind is
education, and that good library IS
we'll calculated to educate the people.
! A letter was sent to Mr.. Simmons ask
ing him whether he had made such an
offer TO the towns in this county. He
promptly replied that he lad, and was
ready to confer with committee from
Salem at any time. The people Of
Salem accepted Mr.. Simmons generous
donation, raised their part of the money
called meeting, organized a library
association, and named it after its chic
donor--the Simmons Salem library
association, that our children and oul
grand children may know to whom they
are indebted for this benefaction..
The association held its first annua
meeting on Christmas day. The las
Saturday in the year is the fixed day fol
the annual meeting. From reports O
the officers Ne find that there has beer
Expended during the year for books, anC
fitting up room, and book cases between
nine and ten hundred dollars. Th'
library now contains 622 volumes anf
since last April, when the first book
were given out there has been drawn on
by the patrons fully fifteen hundred
volumes showing truly that some bod,
reads. The association is largely il
debted to Rev. Fl. NJ Simmons for al
selecting books and other labor 70
which he refused to take any compensa
ton. The association at its annua
meeting passed a vote of thanks to tn
Rev. HIM. Simmons aud ordered it's sec
rotary TO place the vote on record
Thus by the generosity of few indiv1d
uals. Salem has good library and it
: future success will depend on the car
:; of those who have it in charge. Mr.
Editor the above is my story It migf
9 have been elaborated by telling of som
!. of the struggles and heart burning
g caused by criticism of some of its chi
0 actors, but perhaps it is just as well
G let that all pass into oblivion,
