The young people Of Owensboro. he
tween the ages Of siX and twenty. consis,
IT SIS boys and SIS girls. There are
three young men there who are anxious to
eaualize those numbers, and If three eli
gible young ladies can he found willing
TO help them, they stand ready to pay
transportation and all subsequent ex-
penses.
IT is said that "the moon has gained
about an inch in rapidity of motion"
within the last hundred years. This is
no doubt true, for young men will tell
you that when talking at the gate with
their sweethearts the moon goes down
much quicker now than it did when they
were boys waiting to rob q watermelon
patch in the dark.
SOME women would rather stand in
front of gate five hours and hold hose
pipe until about thirteen cart loads of wa
ter was wasted upon the street than to
take bucket full of hot water and stiff
brush and scrub doorstep. Some wom-
en- are SO funny about little things like
that, but they don't mind it as much as
men do who are driving by at the time.
THE most treacherous and cruel thing
on earth Is an empty old gun that hes.
been laid away In . garret or knocked
around as q plaything for ten or fifteen
Avears. You may snap it at stump all
day and it will miss fire every time, but
the very first time you playfully snap it
at your brother or your sister or your
swsetheart-bangl and you've shot hole
through somebody.
PETER COOPER barely missed becom-
ing that thriftless sort Of fellow they
call "a Jack at all trades and good at
none." He began life as an apprentice
to coach-maker; then he made machines
for shearing cloth; next he became gro.
Ger; then be began the manufacture of
glue and isinglass; then he went to max
ing iron and wire; and finally he studied
telcgraphy. And now he perhaps feels
that his life has been almost wasted. If
he had stuck to one thing at the start and
pushed it along with vim and elan and
energy and industry and all that sort of
thing, he might to-day have been in com
Portable circumstances; as it is eight or
ten millions of dollars would probably
cover everything he is worth in the world.
1t is hardly worth while to admonish the
young men of the country to take warn
ing from his example. They won't do it.
