Rails County Democracy.

SNA1N
The Democrats held an impromptu
ratification meeting in front of the
court house on Monday night, to con-
graduate those who succeeded and
condole with those who didn't. The
band made good music, the trees were
hung with transparencies, and the
candidates, defeated and elected,
made their parting speeches, all OF
whom were in the proper tone and
temper. Judge Forrist was then sent
for, and entertained the crowd with a
non-political speech On the transport
tation problem and its relation to the
Improvement of the Mississippi and
Missouri rivers. The Judge fully
sustained his reputation as an orator,
and fairly captured our citizens of
both parties.

Value of Disenfectants.

DR.. George NJ. Stornberg surgeon in
the United States army, has reported
upon the results Of experiments be has
made with various disinfectants and
vaccine virus, the conclusion drawn
from which is that chlorine, nitrous
acid nitrogen dioxide), and sulphur
GUS acid Sulphur dioXide), are reliable
disiniectants in the proportion Of one
volume TO one hundred volumes of air.
Probably considerable smaller pro-
portion Of these dsinfcctants would be
efficient in destroying the potency Of
thin layers Of virus in a moist state, or
Of virus exposed TO the action Of the
dislniectant in an atmosphere saturated
with moisture. Experiments with car
bolic acid, on the other hand, "show
that the popular idea, shared perhaps
by some physicians, that an odor of
carbolic acid in the sick room or foul
prlyy, is evidence that the place Is dis
infected, is entirely fallacious, and, in
fact that the use of this agent as a
volatile agent is impracticable, because
OF the expense Of the pure acid and the
enormous quantity required to produce

Ambitious to be an Author,

In 1869. Young girl from South
ern State came to one Of the large hast-
ern cities to seek her fortune at author
ship. She had few hundred dollars;
was pretty, quick-wiited, and had the
most absolute faith in her own genius.
She would write a novel. she said. Or
a poem that would aS,onish the world
and bring her fortune. After this had
been done then she intended 10 60 home
crowned with fame 10 become the queen
Of her little village.
The novel md poem were written.
and went the rounds If the publishing
houses seeking in vain publisher. Size
wrote other novels to no better purpose.
She wrote ESSAYS newspaper articles,
and carried them herself 10 every edi-
tor, using her pretty face and girhsh
wiles to force .s.4ils5i,
gone. Her clothes grew sb ,,'J,,ey y Was
| lace. lille >hnr,. 49,.
had become familiar In every newspaper
Office Her ewes had lost their dewy
softnes,, and ,houc hard and defiant
Often she was hungry.
The end OF the story j. easily uns-sod'
Gho vas sent home at last ruined in
health and in reputation This Is
true story in every detail
The girl had ability enough TO earn
her living in haif-Iozen ordinary
ways; bu, she had not the ability to
express herself in writing; and here is
the fatal mistake which she and 50
many otheryouug people make.
They are blind and Indifferent 10 all
kinds Of success but that Of authorship
Yet many a man and woman who can
hardly write a Wel-eXpres,cd letter
have more sound practical sense, e&ecu-
tive talent and refinement Of feeling,
than the yersi'ier or story-teler who
hold the public breathIess for the time
But the ambition to succeed as an
author Is harmless enough, provided dis
appointment does not disable the mind
for other work. 1t is acarcer which re-
quires no capital or plant Of any
kind. Neither is influence needed to
secure new aspirant hearing, al
though there is widespread belief
among unsuccessful writers, that there
- 'lHr 'pIhpV''h VI tQlIOls anu lew
well-known writers, whose object is to
crush unknown genius and forbid it a
hearing.
On the contrary, there is not an cdi-
tor in the country who would not hail
with absolute delight a new writer Of
power who could bring fresh strength
20 his columns.
Send your manuscript therefore,
boys and girls, to the magazine you pre-
fer. You may be assured that il will be
fairly read and judged. If you do not
succeed, il will be because you have not
the especial talent for writing. Give it
up. You have other ability; use that.
Turn to any profession or trade rather
than hang around newspaper Offices in
the unhOnored ranks Of the hangers-on
OF literature - fOuth'S Communion

there may be several sickly ones who have
made up their minds to act on the old saw
which specifies that "What can't be cured,
must be endured" While the truth of
the old proverb is self-evident it is Just
possible they may have erred in judgment
as to possibilities Of the healing art outside
OF the medical profession, and before Civ

efficacy of Mrs. Lydia L, Pinkham's Veg
