A MAN AND A GATE AND A WOMAN

From the Drt,nu Ficc Press
The gates at the passenger dep",s
which shut out all people not having
tickets for the trans were closed nj the
Union depot against an elderly woman
wearing spectacles and using an UNI
brella rs q cane.
Can't pass without ticket said
the man at the gate rs she came up.
81 want to see if there's anybody on
that train going to Port Huron she an
swered.
Cant pass without ticket, madam.
"I've got Il darter in Port Huron,
have.''
Cant help it,please. My orders arc
very strict"
Il tell you l want to send word to
my darter," she exclaimed, adjusting
her spectacles for Il better view OF the
official
Yes, but we can't help that. You see.
Please show your ticket
Il want this ere railroad to under
stand that I've got y dartcr in Port HUI
ron and she's got 4 baby four week s
old, and I'm going to send her up word
in spite of all the gates in this depot"
"P ease show your ticket, madam
Il tell you once more
please show your ticket. madam.
She gave the Old umbrella whirl,
and brought it down on his head with
all the vim of an old fashioned log-rais-
ing. and. as he staggered aside. she
passed him, and said:
There's my ticket, sir, and I've got
more behind it, Mebbe one man and a
gate can stop me from sending word to
my darter to grease the baby's nose
with mutton taller if the weather
changes cold, but don't believe it
And she walked down to the tram,
found some one gong to Port Huron.
and came back carelessly humming the
melody of The Three Blind Mice

A TREE WITH A HISTORY.

ILL
On the principal avenue OF a thriving
village OF New Jersey stands very
large willow tree. y running stream
just ut its base has renewed the trees
vigor for nearly half Il century. Now,
however, it IS dying; many of its limbs
are bare, and its leaves are sere and vel
low. There is an interesting story about
this tree. Nearly fifty years ago hap
py young couple just welded started in
Il wagon over the hilly roads of New
Jersey to their new home. 1t was
days journey, and to complete it before
the setti,g OF the sun, the horse had to
he urged to unwonted speed. so the
bridegroom stopped by the roadside and
cut 4 long, wlry, willow stick. Using
this tor Il whip. the journey was com.
pleted with the day, and as the BRIDE
groom ahghted from the wagon he
thrust the willow wand into the ground
by the side OF the stream, where it now
grows. 1t soon began to sprout, and as
the years flew by it became n handsome
tree. Its dropping branches have fur
nished shade lor the couple whom it
served on their wedding journey, and
for their children, and now, as the shad-
ows of age are creeping over the bride
and groom of half Il century ago. the
willow Is beginning to droop and decay,
rs il i'll sympathy with them.

BE EXACT.

Above all things, boys should be care
full to speak the truth. know several
boys who, perhaps, mean well but who
are careless in this particular ;and when
ever | hear them talk | am afraid do
not put as much confidence in what they
say as | ought, because know their
love of appreciation and the marvellous,
and find myself making allowances
whenever my native sense sees the need
This is bad; for sometimes we might
make allowance just where we ought
not to, and make ourselves much trouble.
1t makes us doubtful. too, which is bad.
So, boys, take advice OF older minds
How quick you know ii any one tells
what is not exactly truthful, and you do
not forget it. Think. then. that others
regard you in the same way. Our opin-
ion OF others is, generally. fair exam
Pile of how others regard us. You do
not mean to be untruthlul-of course
you do not, but there are two ways OF
telling anything. and If you contract the
habit OF coloring 1t. it will give you a
great deal of trouble. Speak and act
the truth. and YOU will never 90 Tar
astray.

KILLED BY SCANDAL.
IFrom the Cleveland Herald ]


Some statements have been made i'll
regard to the young man Geo. Clark,
who recently killed himself in this city
at the Kennard House. which may serve
as warning. lie had had difficulty
with his wife, and had been guilty OF
improper conduct as = husband. When
he saw the details spread out. in the
columns of the newspapers, the disgrace
and exposure of his affairs drove him to
desperation. He thought the eyes OF
everybody were upon him, that he was
branded forever rs 4 criminal before
mankind, and death was the surest and
only source of relief He had not the
courage to live, and so died by his own
hand. We do not learn that the young
man was a candidate for office; that any
divorce suit or charge was pending
against him in the courts; that he was
in any sense a public man, or that the
newspapers had any business with his
private affairs whatever. That he had
sinned and was guilty of great wrong
to his family and himself seems quite
true, but that his offences should have
been published, blazoned to the world.
with AL the glaring headlines thai sen
sation and ingenuity could invent, seems
needless and wanton outrage, a viola
,ion OF public dccency and the liberty of
the press. His private affairs were his
private affairs, and exposure could do
nobody any good. were in no sense news
to which the public was entitled; and
such publication were the vilest libels on
private character.
Such garbage may make newspapers
sell. 1t is eagerly sought by the bad and
thoughtless. But such invaslons of the
private affairs OF a private citizen by Il
newspaper IS a degradation OF the press
and IL monstrous abuse of its rights. II
persisted IN by papers claiming to be re-
spectacle, journalism as profession
will sink below contempt and the time
will come when, if editors are beaten or
killed, the community will say that it
served them right Young Clark killed
himself rather than meet the shame he
felt awaiting him. But il his death calls
public attention to a growing evil in oul
country now recklessly indulged in by
a portion of the press. he may not have

Have the courage to speak your mind
when it is necessary that you should do
