Newspaper Education,

Sensible men have long ago dis
covered the value of a good news
paper as an educator in the family.
How a newspaper pays it's sub
scribers can be at once seen, says
Mr.. j. w. Crary of Florida writing
to the Pensacola Advance Gazette,
if you will give the matter a little
thought. Suppose you take a paper
that is only issued once week; you
get fifty-two copies a year, each con-
tanning the general current news of
the times. .... t3 -
The educational advantages to
the family, derived from only a
weekly paper, are cheaper and more
impressive, useful and thorough,
after the children have learned to
read, than the teaching in the ordi-
nary schools. 1t is a notable fact,
and many eminent examples might
be referred to, that families who are
never without newspapers become
more intelligent and more infiuens
tial than those who go through the
ordinary scholastic studies without
the habit of reading newspapers
After reading, writing and arithme-
tic are taught to child, If choice
is to be made between school books
and newspapers, it would be much
more beneficial to the child to give
it two or three well-selected news

Examiner is sensible: mo man

should be confined to officers of the

sor when he is an ordinary teacher9
or doctor when he is a corn-scraper?
or honorable, because he once mis-
represented a trusting district in

CHAPTER III.

Sir Charles Smith was seated in
his lofty study, overlooking an ex-
tensive prospect of wood and dale
He was man who had seen life in
all its myriad phases-a scholar, a
gentleman and traveller. 1t was
even said that he had formerly pene-
trated far into the fabled regions of
the west, even at one time reaching
the awful solitudes Of st. Louis.
He looked up quickly with a
glance of Interrogation as his child
entered, leading Marmaduke by the
hand.
"What's the racket, anyway" he
yelled, as he observed Marmaduke

old man, Sas he shattered ascostly

CHAPTER III.

Years have rolled on since the
tragic scenes narrated in the last
chapter were enacted. Time al
ways passes on. 1t is not known
why this is. Prof Agassiz once
took a clock apart, and didn't even
then find out the reason.
Again it is night over the Smith
castle, and again the moon is rising.
Suddenly fog horn is heard in the
distance, and Immediately a solitary
hack drives at a break neck speed
up to the draw-bridge. A hundred
servants rush to open the gate and
hold back the bull pup, now grown
to be large spotted dog. A man
clad in strange garb springs from
the hack and kicks at the door of
the castle in frantic haste. Lights
flash from window to window, and
finally all the population are congre-
gated in the great hall. The door
is opened and the man rushes in.
1t is Marmaduke.
Agatha gave wild shrek, fell
over the rocking-chair, and tainted
dead away.
"Ha, hap yelled Sir Charles.
swell, braggart, dost thou again
brave my wrath What cans't thou
show for thyself now?"
Marmaduke gave low chuckling
laugh, and, opening his satchel,
threw down $50,00Oin United States
bonds and two quarts of gold dol
lars.
"What do 1 see?" gasped Sir
Charles. "Marmaduke, and with
money!

man, organizing himself into a

paralyzed with wonder.

the young man simply.

CHAPTER 1.

fur story opens with an even
NE ing in 18-, at Sir Charles
SH1S Smiths castle on Blue Island
go avenue, Cnicago. The moon
is rising with her customary ability,
and is throwing her soft silvery
radiance over the terraced woodshed
in first-class style. The wind is
also moaning very fairly through
the lofty picket fence, and the low
sighings of the pup in the back
kitchen ontribute to make the scene
one of the weirdest and most
gloomily magnificent known to
modern times. Two figures are
seated on the terrace-the esthetic
Marmaduke w. Jones and the Lady
Agatha Smith.
"Yes, Marmaduke," said the girl,
tapping the ground lightly with the
delicate slipper on her off foot, 81
do love you-I have always loved
you. To you I gave my. earliest
prayers, my earliest hopes. To you
1 now give my virgin love, pure as
the moonbeams which glitter in

ecstacy of triumph, ''if it's a go, 1
reckon we had better tackle the old
man.

Life consists in ends and begin
nings. There is an end, last hour
to everything. We always put it so
far in the future that we forget it,
and when it comes, it comes so un-
expectedly that it finds us unpre-
pared. The last hour is always ter
rible when those which preceded it
were so full of present pleasure that
nothing was arranged for the com
ing gloom. The end is always sad;
the end of summer, the end Of JOY
and end of life. The end of summer
when the winds wall, and all nature
dies temporary death; the end of
Joy, when the chill of sorrow
comes creeping over us; and, sad
der than all, the end of life, the last
dark hour before eternity's dawn.
When we see the life we love ebbing
away, and we are powerless to stop
it, then we must take the warning to
ourselves. The end is not only for
one, but for all. When the thread of
time shall be snapped in its circuit,
we shall all enjoy that which we
have so long desired.

in all business matters. If you
want to sell or buy. anything you
will likely see the current price in q
newspapers and you will also see
what you might want advertised
you don't have to take hearsay, and

A few months since a merchant in

Two Cheap Medicines.

One of the cheapest medicines
that mortal can use is sleep. 1t is
a sovereign remedy for weakness;
it relieves languor; it cures restless
ness, uneasiness and irritability; it
will remedy headache and back
ache; it also cures nervousness.
When weary we should rest; when
exhausted we should sleep. To re-
sort to stimulants is suicidal; what
weary men need is sleep. The
lack of sleep causes neuralgia, IA
ralysis and insanity. Many a per
son dies for want of sleep, and tae
point where many sufferer turns
his feet from the very gates Of
death to the open path of life is
where he sinks to sleep. BIZ

The south has been impoverished
ever since the late war. Her gallant
sons returned from the rebellion to
find their property gone and their
slaves emancipated, but with ener
gy, chivalry and bravery that char
acterized them on the bloody field
of battle, and gave them an imper-
ishable leaf in the gilded pages of
history, they attacked the great
enemy of poverty. Step by step
have they built up her wealth, and
in few years more we believe that
with the aid of manufactures and
other enterprises which are spring

will attain wealth that will be the

Under no circumstances could
