The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1878-05-16

we cknOWleuSe the ecelp OH
s. M. Pettengilrs Advertising firm, of
New York city, of a copy of their
Newspaper Directory" for 1878. 1t
is a very neat and well arranged work,
and we believe the best of the kind
ever issued. The classification of
newspaper lists is the most complete
ever accomplished. No man who is
in the habit of advertising his bust
ness can be fully equipped for work
without a copy of Pettengill's Direc-
tory. The science of directory-mak-
ing is mastered in the most admirable
manner in this latest of publications
relating to newspapers. OF course
much labor and great care have been
bestowed in the preparation of this
Directory. 1t brings the reader into
immediate communication with S,615
newspapers, in oil parts of the coun-
try. 1t advises advertisers how, and
when, and where to advertise so as to
make their expenditures effective.
There is nc newspaper man, whether
editor or publisher, in the country,
who will not hail the advent of this
newest and best of Newspaper Direc-
tories.
Whatever other folly you may COM
NIT, girls, don't firt with strangers
you meet on the streets. Such a habit
is full of danger, and often results in
ruinous. consequences. In most in
stances the practice is, o~fcourse, in
dulged in out of a spirit of pure fun /;
but the evil disposed put the worst
construction upon such conduct, and
lay their plans accordingly. The SAT-
est course to pursue is to avoid the
very appearance of evil, and, to say
the least, flirting with strangers on
the street has anything but a good
appearance. 1t attracts unfavorable
notice, and gives rise 10 many dispar-
aging remarks very injurious to the
reputation of young girls. Let, all
bear in mind that nothing more be-
comes them than modest, lady-like
department on the street, and that
this is the only thing that will win
for them the favorable and respectful
consideration of those who are their
best friends-that is, good, sensible
people. Therefore, girls, don't firt!
The little amusement you exact from
the habit is as nothing when compar-
ed with the dignity you lose in the
eyes of others. You gain nothing,
while running the risk oflosing every
thing. Don't forget that.
The statute provides that it shall be
unlawf full for horse, mule, cattle, swine,
goats, sheep, OIL geese to run at large
on any road, highway, street, or alley
or uninclosed land. The penalty on
suit is from 81 to So. Another Sec
ton says that any person finding AMI
mails at large contrary to the provis-
ions of the act, any Marshal or Con-
stable, may take up and confine the
same forthwith and give notice to the
owner, or if not known by posting
notices, describing such animals, in
three different public places. IF the
owner does not appear and claim his
property, and pay all charges for TAX
ing up &C., within ten days, the ami
mails may be proceeded with under
the estray laws. The same section
provides that the mere act of running
at large shall be PRIMA FAcIE evidence
that the animals are so doing contrary
to the provision of the statute. 1t
provides also, if the animals are PROV
ell to have escaped from the owners
or keepers, without their knowledge
or fault, that they be given up upon
the payment of a reasonable compen-
sation for taking up and keeping the
same. The estray laws fixes the price
for taking up at 81 for horses; rs
cents for cattle, so cents for swinea and
% cents for all others mentioned in
the act. Tile County Commissioners
may give a general privilege for stock
to run at large, or the Trustees of q
township within its limits.
