The Herald Next Week.

We never go back on old Father
Time, but if we can steal march on
him, without doing either him or the
public any injury, why We Go it, and
more especially If it will afford pleas
ure to our hard working and patient
type settlers. Taking it for granted
then, that the patrons Of the HERALD
will not object, the paper will be
issued next week on Tuesday morning,
christmas day, instead of Thursday.
This will be better than issuing half
sheet or no sheet at all, as is the custom
of some Of our exchanges. 1t will be
christmas paper too, full of choice
christmas reading, such as will be
read with pleasure on that day. The
printers by doing this will have their
holiday all in a lump as it were, and
have two days to get over whatever OF
the big head christmas day and the big
turkey may give them.
Merchants and others will find this
plan advantageous as that they can
bring notice of their christmas goods
right before the public on the very
day Itself. Bring in your advertise
ments on Monday therefore.

We Honor that Man.

Newspapers are not stablished as a
cheap or free means Of private or pub
lie benefit. The most of them are con-
Quoted by printers, and it is their bust
ness, the same as merchandising to
the merchant, or any other calling
or profession very few of them ever
attain to affiuence, while the great
majority only get their meat and bread
for their pains. Their papers we say
are their bread gette,Y, and. no wise, con-
siderate or honest man should expect
the proprietor to insert any notice sub
serving his interest, or the interest OF
the public, whether it relates to relgi-
Gus Or secular matters, without asking
for the charge. Not one out OF hun
lred ever do so, and the printer is
daily called on to publish this or that
notice-free, gratis, for nothing. 1t
used not always to be so. Even the
notice showing Mr.. -'s marriage to
the accomplished Miss --, was paid
for. Not so now. Some times cash is
paid for it, rarely though, and when
done, the printer makes a mental note,
that there is a sensible, considerate
man. A case of this latter kind oc-
cured last week, and we honor that
man.

reached us Tuesday, and to our regret and
that Of the community generally We find,
paragraph will be removed from Eewberry
and transferred TO Greenville. We are not
disposed to cavil at this decision Of the
Bishop, but nevertheless think the change
unwise and hurtfll to the charge with whom,
and tor whom, ln has labored for the two
years past so efficiently and so well. His
entire charge loves him, and the church ha'
been built up, anil spiritually is in better con-
dition than for years. We cannot see the
necessity. Universa regret is spoken, and
the parting with him and his esteemed wife
will be sorrcwful and tender.

Polishing the Wrong End.

Many men daily polish their boots
who never give thought to the condi-
ton Of their hair, except to harrow it
casually with brush and comb, or sub
nit it to the paralyzing attention Of
the average barber. What happens?
Why, this: From neglect, mental anx-
iety, or any Of score Of causes, the
hair turns prematurely gray and be-
gins to fall out. Parker's Hair Balsam
will at once stop the latter process and
restore the original color. An elegant
dressing, free from grease.
