1t Cannot BE.

Said Prentice: at cannot be that
earth is mans only abiding place. 1t
cannot be that our life Is bubble
cast upon the ocean OF eternity, to
float moment upon its surface, and
then go into nothingness and dark
ness forever. Else, why Is 1t that the
high and glorious aspirations which
leap like angels from the temple OF
our hearts are forever wandering
abroad unsatisfied? Why is 1t that
the rainbow and the cloud come over
with beauty that is not of earth, and
then pass of and leave Us to muse on
their faded loveliness? Why is 1t
that the stars which hold their festi-
val around the midnight throne. are
set above the grasp OF our limited
faculties, forever mockipg US with
their unapproachable glory? And
finally. why Is 1t that bright forms OF
human beauty are presented to the
view. and then taken from US, leaving
the thousand streams OF the affec-
tions to flow back in Alpine torrents
upon our hearts. We are born for q
higher destiny than that OF earth.
There Is a realm where the stars will
be spread out before us like the is
lands that slumber on the ocean; and
where the beautiful beings that here
pass before US like visions will stay
in our presence forever"

Loeansport Chronicle.

The report that Mrs. Mercy Howes
died last Monday from the effects OF
tape-worm remedy administered by
DR." Baker turns out to be true as
the report sent to the Board Of Health
confirms it, so that really this So
callsd Doctor" Baker, who Is an ig-
norant clod- chopper Is directly respon-
sible for the death OF Mrs. Howes.
Will people never learn to trust their
cases to the hands OF skilful physi-
clans instead OF ignorant galoots who
do not even know the meaning OF the
word Doctor" The Chronicle called
the attention OF OF its readers few
weeks ago TO the necessity or legisla-
ton against these quacks, and We
think the medical fraternity OF Lo-
gansport owe II to themselves to petit
ton the legislature in regard to this.
Quacks are abolished in other states
and why Indiana snould be a refuge
all these scalawags is beyond COM
prehension. More deaths have been
caused by NAL practice in Logansport
alone the past six months than from
any other source.

A Delightful Listener.

A good story Is told OF ex-Gover-
nor Magaf1in, of kentucky. who is a
good talker and likes to do most OF
the talking himself. Recently, In
making the journey from Cincinnati
to Lexington, he shared his seat in
the car with bright-eyed, pleasant
faced gentleman. The Governor. az
ter few commonplace remarks, to
which his companion smiled and nod
ded assent, branched into a descrip-
tion OF the scenes that he had wit
messed in different parts OF the coun-
try, grew eloquent over the war, de-
scribed with glowing speech the
horse he had witnessed, talked
learnedly OF breeding, and told thrill
ing stories of his battles with the In
dians IN the Northwest. The hours
slipped rapidly away. and when the
train was nearing Lexington the two
exchanged cards and parted with a
cordial shake OF the hands. The Gov
ernor drove to an inn, and to a num-
Der OF friends he remarked that the
ride had never seemed so short be-
fore. Then you must have had
pleasant company aboard" "You
are right. I met gentleman Of un-
usual intelligence. We conversed all
the way over. 1 never was brought
In contact with a more agreeable
man." Indeedl Who was hep
asked his friends. "Wait a minute
I have his card" and the Governor
felt In his pockets and produced the
bit OF pasteboard. His name i:
King" mot Bob King?" shouted 9
dozen in one voice. "Yes, gentle
men; Robert King. That is the way
the card reads" was the proud re.
ply. A roar o: laughter followed
"Why. Governor, Bob King is as dea
as a post. He was born deaf anC
dumb"

Indiana's High Schools.
From the Chicago journal.


One OF the foremost educators Of
Indiana writes to us as follows: "The
whole matter Of higher education In
Indiana is In a state OF critical sus-
pense. Schemes are under discussion
In the Legislature that are intended
by their authors to abolish the State
Normal, the state university and all
high schools He sends us from the
indianapolis Ne,cs the valuable table
OF high school statistics. which we
publish to day. This table demon
strates beyond a peradventure that
the assertion that high schools serve
in the main merely TO educate the
children Of the wealthy classes at the
expense OF the entire body OF tax
payers is not true, at least so far as
Indiana is concerned.
Thirteen per cent. OF all the patrons
OF the Indiana high schools pay no
taxes. Half of all who pay taxes are
assessed for less than $1,000; 33 per
cent. for sums between $1,000 and
5000. and 9 per cent. for amounts
between $4,000 and $4,000. which
leaves but Q per cent. of the tax pay
ing patrons in the class called "rich
men," or persons assessed for more
than $4,000.
Forty per cent. OF the pupils are
children Of manual laborers; 90 per
cent. are children OF agents, clerks
and others on salaries. The average
cost OF the high schools throughout
the state is less than cents on every
500 OF the the total assessment, Oh
not more than cents on every 800
OF real value. In Indianapolis this
cost Is less than II per cent. on 500
OF the true valuation OF property.
These facts ought to effectually
stop the attempt OF demagogues to
prejudice the middle classes agains,
high schools on the false declar ration
that they are rich mems institutions

these lights are warning OF tempests
may not be wholly without foundation.
A Canadian paper gives the following
account Of them:. at Is said to be u

blaze brightly 10 the summer nights,
the fall is invariably marked by great
storms. They give the appearance to

The heavens behind are bright and

Its place, the optic and motor oculi,

so pharyngeal, or tongue and throat
movers, were all found coming from
the proper places In the skull and
leading to the medulla oblongata, or
oblong marrow, which joins the brain
to the spinal marrow. The explana-
tion given by the physicians of the
strange anomaly OF life without brain
is that the pneumogastric nerve and
other important nerves being well
developed and intact, kept up a. sort
OF automatic or instructive existence,
independent OF all intelligence. 1t

The mishap which befel a party
from Boston recently in Philadelphia
has caused much merriment In that
city as we'll as In New York, where
the unfortunates are quite we'll
known. Among the round OF entei-
tainmests provided for the visitors by.
their friends was an evening ct the
ninstrels. The young relative who
bought the tickets In the morning
asked the ticket seller whether there
would be any coarse jokes" OF sim
proper allusions" during the perform
ance. He simply asked because the
@Ciiffords from Boston were coming"
(rhe name is fictitious, but the story
Is true.) He was informed that "hard-.
ly ever" was there anything cut OF
the way at tie abode OF minstrelsy.
The evening came; large audience
filed the house; the overture was
played and one Of the @eni men" ap-
