Advertising Cattle Brands.

The system of advertising cattle
brands and earmarks is becoming more
and more popular among stock men.
Cattle drift away from their summer
ranges, and are sometimes found as far
as three hundred miles. The men in
the business are beginning to have
much more confidence in each other,
and it is o a sort of q rule that they
will do all in their power to help each
other. A thorough acquaintance with
all the different brands in the country
enables one man to do a great deal of
good for another. If you want every
body to know your brands, and thus
save a great amount IF stock, you will
advertise your brands. Costs little and
paws.

(For the Beacon.)

What piece Of work is man How noble
in reason, how infinite in faculties the para
gon Of animals.'
The fact that we are constantly inn
pressing ourselves on one another, con-
stantly influencing is realized daily.
During a conversation some little word
is said, and Immediately il is gifted with
vital power, opens the closed doors Of
our nature, revealing the PenetralIa
where are stored Thought-gems, pic
lures wrought by the fairy artist Imag-
ination. The other day pleasant visit
suggested the following crude thoughts.
Man. though ''the frail being Of an
hour" is the viccgerent of God. The
Creator, looking upon His handiwork,
pronounced il good. On man are be.
slowed God-like prerogaiives. The UNI
verse is his field Of action. To him is
given the right to rule, 10 command, and
vet he that is noblest often "stoops TO
conquer" As the oak disdains not to
shelter the tiny seed. to gather under
its protecting shadow the weaker plants,
so the true man, the oak Of the garden
Of humanity, protects the weak, the de-
fenceIess, even against himself. His
soul is q mirror Of beauty-his heart the
home OF noble aspirations, good impul-
ses, tenderness and sympathy. He re-
reres himself, honors and loves virtue,
scorns all deeeptions, dishonesty and
petty meannesses, respects and cherishes
woman, makes for her the rough road
OF life more smooth and pleasant.
In a word, in him Is found Thacke-
rays definition Of gentleman realized:
.'It is tC have lofty aims, 10 lead pure
life, to keep your virgin honor, to have
the esteem Of your fellow-citizens and
the lore Of youy friends. 70 bear good
fortune meekly. 20 suffer evil with con-
stancy, and through evil and good re-
port 10 maintain truth always"
There are some who recognize their
dignity, fulfill their mission. Deep,
deep they dive into the well Of knowi-
edge, bringing up each time a pearl Of
value rare. High up into the empyresn
they scar, talk with the stars, find out
their secrets, their history. One BY

DEATH OF GEN. PILLow.-Gideon ].
Pillow died on Tuesday morning at his
home near the mouth Of the st. Fran
els River. When the Mexican war
broke out, he was 40 years old. He
had been practising law and politics IN
his native Tennessee ever since his
graduation from Nashville University
in 1927. He had been q member of the
Baltimore Convention OF 1874, and had
large hand in the nomination oi James
K. Polk for the Presidency. Naturally
he had no difficulty in obtaining COM
mission as Brigadier-General of volun-
teers. He was present at the siege of
Vera Cruz, commanded the right wing
at Cerro Gordo, where a lucky wound
made him a MaJor-General, and took
part in the battle of Churubusco. the
storming of Chapultepec, and the action
of Molino del Rey. After the fighting
was over Gen. Scott sent him before n
court-martial for disobedience of orders,
but he was acquitted. He went back
to Tennessee and his Law books. The
rebellion broke out, and Pillow drew his
sword against the flag under which he
had fought. He commanded the Con-
federates at Belmont, and was second
in command at Fort Donnelson. When
it became plain that the fort would not
hold out, he followed Floyd's example
and decamped. He was relieved from
duty by the Confederate authorities,
and, though he afterward got back into
the army, was never again trusted with
an independent command. He celebra-
ted his 72nd birthday last June.
