Statistics For Girls.

A young English statistician who was
paying court to young lady thought to
surprise her with his immense erudition.
Producing his te-book, she thought he
was about to indite long sonnet, but
was slightly taken back by the following
question:
Glow many meals do you eat day?'
"Why, three, Of course; but of all the
oldest questions"
"Nevcr mind, dear, I'll tell you all
about it in a minute"
His pen was rapidly at work, at last he
fondly clasped her slender waist, and
said:
"Now, my darling, I've got it. And if
you wish to know how much has passed
through that adorable little mouth in the
last seventeen years, I can give you the
exact fgures.''
"Goodness gracious! What do you
mean?'
CHOW, just listen," he said, "and YOU
shall hear exactly what you have been
obliged to absorb to maintain those
charms which are to make the happiness
of my life"
"But don't want to hear.
"Ah, you are surprised, no doubt, but
statistics arc wonderful things"
"Just listen. You are now seventeen
years old, so that in fifteen years YOU
have absorbed oxen and calves, 5: sheen
and lambs, ID; chickens, 1927; ducks 304 ;

At this the maiden revolted, and lump
ing up, exclaimed;
II think you are very impertinent, and
disgusting besides, and I will not STAY to
listen to you!" upon which she flew into
the house.

Kind Words.

Randall Morton has a fine place near
Plttsburg and the boss cherry trees of the
county. There are two rows of them,
leading from the gate to the house. The
trees are so planted that the inferior varie-
ties are nearest the gate. We have a
great many visitors in the summer time,
and the first thing every fellow does
when he enters the gate is to go to the
first cherry tree and partake of the fruit
thereof; then he naturally works his way
to the next tree and samples the cherries
he finds the fruit of that is better than
that of the first tree; then he moves on
to the next and discovers that the frui
of that is still better, and SO he gradu-
ally works up to the residence, eating
from every tree on his way"
"What does he do then?"

Sleeping Draughts.

An English doctor, writing about sleep
and sleepliness, observes that the state
narcotics produce is not sleep, but con-
d1tion of narcotism that counterfeits sleep
adding: "When man says, II want a
quiet night, I will take sleeping draught,
he speaks in parallels. To express the
fact plainly he should say, 4 want quiet
night; I cannot obtain it by going to
sleep, or am I afraid to trust to the
chances Of natural rest, so I will poison
myself little, just enough to make me
unconscious, or to slightly paralyze my
nerve centers, not enough to kill" If
this fact could be kept clearly before the
mind, the restless use of drugs which pro-
duce state that mocks sleep would be
limited" The state Of inaction which
is bro ught about by natural sleep is very
different from that which is produced
by paralysis Of any degree.

MOdesty and Bashfulness.

There is great deal of difference be-
tween modcsty and bashfulness. The
latter has terror of being approached by
strangers or confronted with an unaccus-
toned fact or position. 1t proceeds from
egotism, for if we were not fancying our
selves observed by others and fearful of
their criticism, we should simply appear
at ease, and do what we were required to
do as matter of course, and SO doing
would appear we'll. Modesty is never
self-assertive. It doubts ITSELF. but is
never afraid to express its willin gness to
attempt what is asked, and when we are
successful, modesty prevents us from
Boosting or supercilious assertion.
There never was popular superstition
more utterly without basis thar the
notion that the moon has an influence on
the weather.

Little by little-an hour day,
Gone with the years that have vanished away
Little by little the race is run,
Trouble and waiting and toll are done.

Gladder and brighter on pain and doubt;

CANTON.
Grand Skating Carnival.

To the Editor of the Comet:
Your correspondent had the pleasure OF
spending last Friday and Saturday in the
celestial city of Canton. This splendid
little city has a population of about 3500
and has widespread reputation of being
the most beautiful town in the State. AL
though suffering terribly from the yellow
fever scourge, her people have almost re-
covered from its terrible effects.
Gin Friday night the goth, we attended
grand mask skating carnival, by Luitwiler
& Robinson, proprietors. There were at
least fifty skaters on the floor, and their
large and elegant hall was paclek with the
chivalry, grace and beauty of Canton.
Some of the masks were very pretty and
gorgeous others amusing and laughable.
In the tournament contest, Mr.. Norman
Mosby took the first prize-a silver cup;
and Miss Ella Mcdowell silver boquet
holder, as the best and most graceful lady
skater Prof. VIM. H. Hartwells cornet
and orchestra bands, furnished the most
excellent music for the tournament. And
right here we take occasion to recommend
his orchestra to other towns when they
wish good, soul-stirring music for their en-
balls, etc.
We found that politics were running at
a low ebb, but it is simply lull before a
storm, as candidates are quite numerous.
Nearly every office has from six TO dozen
avowed and announced candidates, besides
others whose patriotism and love of county
would not prohibit accepting office if ten

Senator Spraguo immortallzed himself
| in one sentence when he said: "There is
nothing more cruel than million of dol
lars but a million and a half.
The good old prelate at Cincinnati, whose
| long life has been one of such purity,
charity and good Christian work that his
very enemies respect him and his friends
. love him, is experiencing the trnth of the
Senator's epigramatic utterance.
In pure kindness of heart. some thirty
years since, he permitted his brother to use
| the church as savings halk for the poor
| laborers Of his diocese. No one believes
| that Le meant any dishonesty or seltishness
in this. He was actuated by the best Of
motives. and went OH building churches
and organizing charities, with no thought
of the risks he ran or the dangers with
which he was threatened He could not
anticipate the financial crash that involved
us all in common ruin. He had no gift OF
financial prophecy, and knew not that the
day would come, and come with
out warning, when his busy children, so
prosperous in their humble way, would
come crying about him for immediate re-
payment of their little savings, amounting,
when added up to millions.
All the savings banks of the country
obeyed the law and invested their profits
in real Cstate-werc broken because they
so obeyed; and the good archbishops bank
went down with the rest, This because the
real estate-the solid foundations on which
they stood-shrunl from under them, and,
leaving the market, lett the directors with
out means to redeem their pledges.
The good archbishops savings bank diff
fered from all the the others, IN the fact
that not only was its management without
taint or suspicion, but its assets are in good
works. Other savings banks leave nothing
behind: hut here is one that has has covered
the land with temples to the

MONEY AND TILDEN.

On purely presidential question there
seems to be more sagaclty in Hon. Fl. D.
Money, than in any of Mississippi's Rep
resentative in Congress. He says Tilden
would be the most available candidate in
1890, and the probability is Money is about
three-thirds. We do not see any better
way to administer an overwhelming rebuke
to the infamy of I'ilden's counting out, than
to take him up and overwhelmingly elect
him. If there was no other reason for his
nomination, this is sufficient to satisfy all
men who wish to see the right triumphant,
and fraud crushed When a large portion
of the people of the United States labored
under the delusion that Tilden was wanting
in nerve to assert his right, if not con-
senting party to the infamy, there were
solid grounds for opposition to him; but
after he has gone through the fire of inves-
tigation, and come out of it pure gold,
and proved that his skirts are clear of all
the miserable double dealing and brazen
rascality of that disgraceful Presidential
episode, these grcundt of opposition give
way entirely. The nomination and ems
phatic election of Tilden is a consumma-
ton exactly in accordance with ''the eternal
fitness of things" and it is one of those
thing which the American people will be
sure to do if they ever get chance. Now,
let not the politicians undertake to rob the
people out of the just satisfaction of re-
peating with unmistakeable emphasis their
choice for President.
