Take Your County Paper.

The Earerly Mlga=ine, one Of tho
souuds.t and most popular periodicals
published in tho United States. thus
discourscs on county papers: "Do the
city papers say anything in regard to
your own county? Nothing. Do they
contain notices Of your schools, meetings,
churches, improvements, aud hundreds
Of other local matters Of interest which
your own paper publishes without pay?
No! on item. Do they ever say u word
calculated to draw attention to your
county and aid in its progress md Gu.
terprise =? Not a limo. And there are
men who take such contracted views Of
this matter that unless they are getting
as many square inches Of reading mat
ter in their own paper, they think they
arc not getting the worth Of their mon.
oy. 1t reminds ug Of q man who took
tho largest pair Of boots because the
price was Tho same as the pair much
smaller that fitted Him."

Beeciier on Death.

Mr.. BeecLcr preached Sunday morn
ing on death. In the course Of his
sermon be said:
death the is proper termination Of
the organic whole Of human life. There
is no more reason for sadness at death
than at The fall Of leaves. Tha. the
race must die every ono admits ; it ia
only when individuals dic that we arc
touched. Death is ordinarily painless,
even 10 cases Of disease. In most cases
death comes on with such a lowering Of
the nervous Sunsibili.y that it is without
pain or consciousness. We need have
no horror OF tue physical net Of dying.
Men carry for years aud years more
pain every day than will be suffered at
tho last hour.
