believe in the correctness of our action,

destructive of our Democratic forms

ciples Of Democratic Justice, and for
this reason our action.

to recoGuize aud regard Ia no common

our Congressman, Gen. j. Floyd King,

the support of our low-citizens for re-
election through the parish and district.

As to Music.

The word tenor, from the italian
tenore, signifies holder, voice which
holds or sustains the song. This ex-
preston is applied chiefly to the artist
whose voice holds the best between the
contralto and the barytone. The tenor
is the rara avis of the ancients. He is
seldom found Chat is to say good
one), and, if he is difficult to find, he is
also difficult to preserve. The delicacy
of his voice demands constant care and
constant nursing. Rubini, the former
tenor SO dear to the habitues of the The
alter DIES Italie1as, dared not smoke,
hesitated almost to eat according to his
appetite, and for nothing in the world
would he 60 out on the day of his per-
formances, save to go to the theater.
A good tenor easily earns 10000 to
100000 francs per year. Roger, now
dead, used for many years to get $4,000
francs at the Opera Naudin, specially
engaged in Enthusiastically a formal
clause in Meyerbeer's will-had salary
os 10000 francs. And yet good tenors
usually make more money in other
capitals, and St. Petersburg, J4mdon.
New York, Milan and Berlin render it
impossible for Paris to make a serious
engagement with many of the celebrat-
ed singers at present.

The COstliest of Furs.

The skin of mustela zibelina, known
as the Russian sable, is the most ex-
pensive fur sold. The zebelina is of
the weasel family, and is about the size
Of the German marten. It takes four
or five skins to make an ordinary mufff.
The best and darkest of these little
animals are found in Russian Lapland,
Yakootsk and Yenessi. Very few of
these skins ever leave Russia, where
they are almost monopolized by the i'm
perial family and the nobility. A muff
and boa OF "crown" Russian sable will
bring from $500 to $3.50. The exclus-
i've beauty of this fur is it's rich colors,
deep brown and a jet black, with
points of hair tipped with white; the
hairs are so fixed in the skin that they
can be brushed either way and will lie
nicely. The Russian sable is never
made up into garments in any country
except China and Russia. This fur is
too costly to be ranked as fashionable,
in the general significance of the term
fashion. Only the wealthy can afford
to purchase such costly raiment, and
that article of dress pronounced fash
ionable must be within the reach of the
majority Of society dressers. Russian
sable is an exclusive fur.

Sleeping Draughts.

An English doctor, writing about
sleep and sleeplessness, observes that
the state narcotics Products not sleep.
but condition of narcotism that coun-
terfeits sleep, adding: "When a man
says, I want quiet night, will take a
sleeping draught,' he speaks in para
bles. To express the fact plainly, he
should say, I want quiet night; lean
not obtain it by going to sleep, or I am
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 reck-
less use OF drugs which produce state
that mocks sleep would be limited
The state of inaction which is BROUGHT
about by natural sleep is very different
from that which is produced by paraly-
sis of any degree.

A False Alarm .

A large con aggregation had gathered to
hear stranger of some notorlety. Soon
after he had introduced his subject, the
cry of "fre fre!'' in the street very
much disturbed the congregation, and
many were ABOUT to retire, when an elder
II lay brother arose and said:
1T the congregation will be composed,
| will step out and see if there is any fire
near and report
The congregation became composed,
and the minister proceeded. Taking adj
vantage of the occurrence he called at
tention to fire that would consume the
world la fire that would burn forever in

It is q gaseous medium encircljug the

The properties of the atmosphere in
their various aspects and their effects
upon the universe are the only phases
within reach of human study. In this
ethereal and invisible realm the forces
of nature have their birth, the vegeta-
BILE world its origin, the progress of the
universe it's support. Through its
agency and in it's various phases we en-

ships, the cheerful blaze of our fresides.
Its influence upon the human consti-
tuition is inconceivably great. It is the
first element of vitality; from it's serene
and inscrutable depths come the mys-
ferrous professions of human beings
which crowd the earth, and it is the
great sepulchre to which they all re-
turn. Inhaled into the lungs it tray
erses through the blood, the whole sys-
tenn, bestowing it's needed health and
bearing away it's waste products. It is
to the atmosphere we are indebted for
thousands of the beauties of nature.
The "blue expanse serenely tender" of
the sky; the gauzy haze investing the
mountains with purple shadows; the
varied tints of the rainbow catch their
hues from the unsearchable depths of
atmosphere.
Autumn's coat of many colors also
may be traced to the oxidation of the
gases of the atmosphere. But though

Who could paint the condition of the
world suddenly deprived of this life

pendence of our lives upon the breaths
we so unconsciously draw. Surely this
wonderful, invincible girdle about the
globe, through whose medium we have
our being and are RECALLED with pictures
of beauty and sounds OF ravishing
sweetness, should forever declare 20 us
that the hand that made us is divine.

lie NSau0ze,, Her Hand.

An Ohio merchant tells the following
story about himself. Where he lives is
a secret, except that it is not a mile and
half from the Xenia Court House:
"When I was about IL years old
I made trip to Cleveland in the
old-fashioned stage coach, with it's
spanking four horses. At Mount Yer
non, about 4 o'clock in the afternoon,
a pretty girl came on board. She sat
on the back seat, next to an elderly
fa,mer-like looking man. I was on the
middle sect Immediately in front of her.
| soon struck up a pleasant chat with
her. She was charming talker, and
almost as brilliant as she was pretty.
1t looked as if we we're mutually pleased.
When dark came I concluded there
would be no harm in giving her hand
squeeze by way of feeler. I reached
behind and got hold of the hand. I
was little startled at the hardness, but
it returned a vise-like pressure. I
squozed again and it squoze back. A,
sense of disappointment would steal
over me when in my mind I would con-
trast the seeming toughness of her hand,
with the tenderness and sweetness of
her voice. The contrast did not seem
to arterialize my blood quite up to the
point of exhilaration. At last she
reached her destination and left the
coach. After we had started again that
old rooster who sat beside her addressed
me thusly:
Young man, do you feel all right2
You had nice time tugging at my old
paw for the last five miles; hope you
enjoyed it,
@The two young ladies on the front
seat giggled all the way to the next sta
ton, and the gentlemen passengers
didn't forget to smile when I looked up.
I have been more successful since in
that line"
