Republican party. When In 1855,
q great effort was made from New

Mr.. Buchanan, the money came
from private individuals and not a
dollar of 1t was wrung from gov
eminent officials. 1t really seems
as If, just in inverse proportion to
the professions of the Republican
party is their performance. A fine
era of hypocrisy has been under
way ever since the war. Most of
the men who spout SO eloquently
about the great need there is OF a
continued Republican ascendancy,
know in their hearts that the
country would be amazingly the
better for change from turret to
foundation stone. While we be-
lieve, at decent intervals, in re.
placing one set of officials by an.
other equally competent, the Con-
gress of the United States should
ordain the penalty of cruclfixion,
after q given day, to be dealt out to
any official caught subscribing or
collecting money for the purpose
of continuing his bold on power. A
very few years will tell whether or
not the Republican party, in en-
grating this malign innovation on
the practices Of the government
has not stabbed the Republican
party to the heart. 1t has twice
perpetuated its hold on power by
the employment of the power and
money of the United States gov.
eminent, and the bad act has now
risen to the dignity OF precedent
and may be repeated ad anJfnituna.

TIE New Administration.

WASHINGToN, Sept. 20.-There
Is no positive Information as to
when President Arthur will arrive
here, but private dispatches say he
will come tonight. There are va
rious rumOrs about the purposes of
the incoming administration, but
high officials who are close friends
of President Arthur say there will
be no changes in the Cabinet be-
fore the meeting of Congress. Tn
regard to the extra session, 1t Is not
believed that any will be called.
Many think that even the Senate
| will not be convened In extra SEES
sion, as the time for the regular
session is near at hand. There is
an opinion among some prominent
Republicans that the Senate will
be convened early; that under the
circumstances President Arthur
will feel disposed to assemble the
Senate to assist in starting his ad.
ministrarion. Yet these matters
are mere speculation, as it Is not
likely that even President Arthur
has given any thought to them.

What She Called Him.

A well-known educationalist vouches
for the truth of the following: A teacher
in a lower grade in, N of u public
schools received a new pupil-a little
miss of six or seven years, named, say
Matte Brown. After taking her name
for the school rolls according to the GUS
tom, the teacher said:
"What is your papa's name, Mattie?'
"Mr. Brown"
eyes, but what is his first name?"'
"Don't know-his name is just Mr..
Brown"
eyes, yes-I know" then as a bright
idea struck her, ''What does your mann
ma call him?"
"Ohl I know what you mean now,'
the innocent child replied, ''ma she calls
him O darned old fool"
1t is safe to conclude that the teacher
did not register the child's father as D.
o. F. Brown.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1881-07-07
Stop Scowiinp.

Don't scowl; it spoils faces. Before
you know IL your forehead will resemble
q small railroad map. There Is a grand
trtink line now from y0tir e6w1ich to the
edge Of y6uf NOSE, intersected by pafa1-
lei lines running east and west, with
curves arching your eyebrows; and oh,
how much older you look for it. Scowl-
ing is q habit that steals upon us un-
awares. We frown when the light is too
strong, and when IL Is too weak. We
tie our brows into q knot when we are
thinking, and knit them ever more
tightly when we a not think. There is
no denyingthat there are plenty of things
to scowl abo1t. The baby in the cradle
frowns when something fails to suit.
The little toddler who has sugar on his
bread and butter tells his troubles in the
same way when you leave off the sugar.
''Cross" we say about the children, and
'.wurried to death" about the old folks,
and as for ourselves, We can't help it.
Butwe must. Its reflex influence makes
others unhappy; for face answereth I'M
to face in life as well as in water. 1t
bellies our religion. We should possess
our souls in such peace that it will re-
feet itself In placid co~untenances. II
your forehead Is ridged with wrinkles
before forty, what will it be at seventy?
There is one consoling thought about
these marks of time and trouble-the
death angel always grasses them. Even
the extremely aged in death often wear
"a smooth and peaceful brow, thus leav-
ing our last memories of them calm and
tranquil. But our business is with life.
Scowling is a kind of silent scolding.
For PHYS sake let us take a sad iron or a
glad iron, or some smoothing tool OF
some sort, and straigten these creases
out of our faces before they become in
deibly engrayen upon our visage.
