A WORD 10 CHILDREN.

Dear children, listen while tell you
something which deeply concerns your
welfare. The subject is the shape Of
your bodies. God knew the best shape.
He created us upright, in his own image.
None of the inferior animals walk up
right.
God fitted the great vital organs in
your bodies to an erect spine. DO your
shoulders ever stoop forward: If they
do. the lungs, heart, liver. and stom-
ach fall down out of their natural places.
OF course they can't do their work well.
To show you how this is, will tell you
that when YOU bend forward you can on
ly take abou. half as much air into the
lungs as you can when you stand up
straight. As | have said, God has so
arranged the great organs in the body
that they can't do their duty well except
when the body is straight. Oh, how it
distresses me to see the dear children,
whom love so much, bending over their
school desks, and walking with their
head and shoulders dropping My dear
children, il you would have q strong
spine and vigorous lungs, heart. liver,
and stomach, you must, now while you
are young, learn to walk erect.
If a boy were about to leave this coun-
try for Japan, never to return. and were
to come to me and ask for rules to pre-
serve his health, | should say, am
glad to see you, and will give you four
rules, which, carefully observed, will be
pretty sure TO preserve your health.
He might say to me, " Four are a good
many; fear may forget some OF them ;
give me one, the mos, important one, and
| promise not to forget T." ! should re-
ply, "Well, my dear boy, if can give
you but one, i. is this,
Keep yourself straight. that IS st 'T
straight; raIk up straight, and rhen /"
bed at night, don't pat t'eO or three p'ilor'
under your head, a, though intent o"
catching your toes all night and be-
licye that in this | should give the
most important rule which can be given
for the preservation Of health and long
life.
My dear children, don't forget it.-Dio
Lc,cis IA Golden Rule.

BROTHER GARDNER ON BRING

Gardiner. as Samuel Shin finally quit

The daily gazette., 1882-09-11
a stronr TIclxet,

The Democrats of New Castle county did
good work, on Saturday afternoon, and
nominated county ticket that is strong
and acceptable in every respect. The
absence of competition in nearly all
instances where good men were named for
Legislative positions, showed the desire of
the people to have this branch Of the
ticket so strong in Its composition
that 1t would appeal to the intelligence and
receive the support of every citizen and tax
payer who is interested in placing the legis-
latiVe power of the State in wise and judi
cious hands. That they succeeded in this
desire Ia apparent by simply reading the
names of the nominees, all of whom are
gentlemen of ability and integrity, and OF
commanding influence In their respective
neighborhOOds.
The Levy Court nominations also resulted
in the choice Of good, well-known citizens
who are acquainted with the people and
fully cOnYersant with the needs of tn.
county. And 90 on, down to Assessors ant
Road Commissioners, the Democratic peopl
carefully selected the very best names pre-
sented for their suffrages, and thereb,
secured ticket which any man can con
slider 10 privilege and pleasure to cast
ballot for.
In this city Hewson e. Lannan of tn
Tenth ward, was nominated for Assessor
the Southern district, while Josiah MEGA
Will lead the "forlorn hope" north OF Sixt
street. Mr.. Lannan's majority was so larg
a. to make his selection practically unant
nous, while George H. Bates, Esq.,, hs
not the slightest opposition for the Legisls
tive nomination, which was rendered hII
unanimously, and without even an intim,
ton on his part that 1t would be accepted.
We-are happy to say, therefore, that IL
county Democracy did an excellent work Q
Saturday afternoon. They chose q tick
against which not the slightest personal {
political objection can be urged, and whie
VIII be heartily supported by every membt
OF the party, to say nothing of the votes sue
candidates are sure to draw from the opp,
sition. They are all live, intelligent an
representative men, whose nomination
ample guarantee that the interests of I'll
state will be protected and the deelaratio
OF the Democratic platform faithfully ca
ried out In the event of their election.
BY selecting such clean, strong candidat
the Democracy makes Itself worthy of su
cess and no man need fear the result
