THE DEATH-RATE OF

Our country is getting to be feartully alarming, the average of life being les- sened every year, without any reason able cause, death resulting generally from the most insignificant origin. At this season of the year especially, a cold is such common thing that in the hurry of every day life we are ap9 to overlook the dangers attending it and often find too late, that Fever or Lnng trouble has already set in. Thou sands lose their lives in this way every winter, while had Boschee's German Syrup been taken, cure would have resulted, and large bill from doctor avoided.

NEW HOPE HAPPENINGS.
Anril 4th. 1871

Aprll 4tIl, Io13. DEAR DEMocRAT: l will give you some news from our neighborhood round and about Newhope church, where we have preaching on the 4th Sunday in every month by the Rev. Mr. Corley. Prayer meeting every Sunday evening, and temperance meeting every Monday night. Our meetings are all very well attended. We are all farmers and hard at work, and thanks be to our Father in Heaven for our good health, for I don't know of any sickness in our neighborhood, only some bad colds,
 Wheat crops are looking splendid, and if nothing happens good wheat crop will be made. We are planting corn this year to do some good. I for one have cut off my cotton crop just one-half, and planting that much more in corn.
 The meeting at Mt. Zion is now going on, conducted by the Rev. Mir. Reagan. wonder why some among the host of preachers at Russeliville don't come to Newhope and preach some time {? Only the 4th Sundays are taken in, and it is only 41la miles South of Russell vile.
 Come back, Boys and Erwin, to our temperance meettng.
 l will write again soon,

"Waste not, want not" is an old maxim and as true as it is old. The great reason why there is So much poverty, destitution and distress in the land is because there is SD much waste. Southern people are espec cially wasteful. It is one of our most grievous faults--the sin which doth most easily beset us. What we actually throw away every year would go long way towards better ing our own condition or minister ing to the wants of the worthy poor The secret of having money IS uot in making 1t so much as in the tak ing care of It. This has been said ten thousand times and repeated as often, sfnti sfntfi ,,sssa ,sssta It IS one of those old sruIns which mnst be kept constant ly in sight if we would become moro prosperous and Indepcndcnt.-L.

The Printed HanA,

J. B, Merwin, Editor of the Amer ican Journal Of Education, of St. Louis, says:
 The printed page Is a great power to harmonize and inspire the peo- pie.
 One reads, and so reinforces him self by the best thought and the best arguments ofthe strong minds, wig orously and tersely expressed. He helps his neighbor, too, the better to understand lhis view of the case, because, having before him the prin- ted page, he reads and re-reads it so as to confirm his impression, and then appeals to it again, as it stands there in print.
 But few people yet realize the ad- vantage and power of the printed page.
 First the county newspapers, then the great weeklies from the city, and the religious newspaper, brings all the world to you, and takes you out of youIselfinto the society of the best and the strongest.
 The newspaper then, not only in- creases your intelligence, but your faith in the possibilities of yourself and the great people among whom you dwell.
 Circulate the printed page.

lady, with number of post people,
started out on a camping tour
through Colorado, and while at Den.
yer the miraculous part of the whole
matter occurred, the power to articu-
late returning to Miss Flint as sud-

those who have experienced SINH

can ever know what wonderful
sensation it must have created in the
Generals family when on Saturday
the daughter returned to her home,
and for the first time in six years
spoke the names of those who had
almost lost all hope that they would
ever hear her voice again. The many
friends of the family will unite with
them in rejoicing over the happy
occurrence.-Laramie Times.

The Smallest Bank RObber in the
World.

WOElus
It seems that the mystery surround
ing a bank robbery committed in the
First National Bank of this city
many months ago was cast aside
Tuesday morning. A long time ago
Mr.. Farnsworth, cashier in the bank,
missed 81, 81 and IS bills frequently
out of small pasteboard box he kept
standing on the counter. In all
there was fifteen or twenty dollars
taken, and then Mr.. Framework re-
moved the temptation of the mys-
FERROUS bank robber by doing away
with the "change box" Tuesday
morning workmen were engaged in
tearing down the old vault in the
building formerly occupied by the
First National, situated on the corner
OF Broadway and Main street, and
in hole in the inside of the vault,
just above the door, they found u
dead mouse lying on top of large.
sized "nest." On making an ex-
animation of the nest it was found
to be wholly constructed Of small
pieces of one, two and five-dollar
bills. The pile was sufficiently large
to cause the officers of the bank to
believe that the entire fifteen or
twenty dollors stolen from them were
10 the mouse nest, and the remains of
the defaulting bank mouse, together
with it's rather expensive nest, is on
exhibition in Mr.. Farnsworth's Office,
in the Plumer block. Not piece of
the bills Ms large as silver half dol
lar could be found in the pile. We
believe the mouse to be the smallest
bank robber IN the world.-Council
