IT is noticed that great many
people in this town are given to
repeating stories very much against
the credit of their fellow citizens.
Perhaps if some Of them would read
up the law of libel in this place it
might restrain their lips from speak
ing evil. And in these matters the
repeateris held to as strict an account
as the originator.

IT is related of tbs late Jere Black
that he was exceedingly carsless about
his dress; that il required strategy to
get a measurement for new suit, and
much persuasion to induce him to put
it on afler it was made. The same story
has been told OF other distinguished
men. De Quincy and COleridge, Charles
Lamb and IA score of other authors and
scholars were distinguished for genteel
shabbiness. 1t is the mark of "A great
man To he above buttons. II he wears
soiled shirts. ill-it,ing coats, with the
collars literally pasted with grease and
dandruff, and writes ah illegible hand, it
may be set down for certain that ths
marks Of the gods ars upon him to

generation ago 10 wear IA wide turned
down collar and drink gin and water
were thought to be symptoms OF Byrouic
capacity in verse. But the real stamp
of genius is in the capacity 10 wear old

and Jere Black is cited as another illus
tration of intellect that scars above the
comprehension of a tailor and laun-
dress. Some time. however, it is to he

Purity.

This is an indispensable requisite to
good character. Purity of thouhgt,
OF speech, of rondact, should be serupu-
lousy adhered to by every man who de-
sires q fair reputation. All! how many
there are who call themselvst gentle
men, honorable men. nea of character
and standing, who are guilty of offences
against purity which ought to exclude
them from ths society of the respectable
and virtuous. How many young men,
who think themselves fit company for
lhe sniable aud pure, and lovely Of the
ether sex who ought not be allowed to
breathe the same air with our daughters,
and sisters, and who would not be II
they wers thoroughly known by the
community generally, n they are by the
few. How many who in the presence
Of womsn in our social circles, will tlat-
ter and compliment, with the most OBJ
seouieus manifestations OF respect, and
in the most insinuating manner, whe,
among Ih,ir male associates win speak
of women in the most disrespectful and
insulting manner, with gross familiari-
ty and unblushing eoarssAsss. When |
hear young man make coarse and
deprecisting expressions toward the fe
male sex, or making them the subject
of SONS vulgar sllusion, or indecent
double entsndrs, l put mark upon him
AS not to be trusted.

The Party of NegatiOns.

1t is interesting to note that in the
tidal wave" states, where few months
ago Democratic hopes were at their
highest, there has been during the past
few weeks a Republican reawakening
and a corresponding weakening and de-
preston of Democratic spirits. In Mas.
sachusetts Butler, so far from aiding the
Democratic campaign, has been a mill
stone upon it. The people of the state
are disgusted with him and his "Tewks-
bury raid" They want to get rid Of
him. In New York Democratic hopes
are centred on harmony" with John
Kelly and Tammany, and this, if gained,
will lose as many Democratic votes as
Tammany will bring, and it will drive
back permantly into their old lines all
the Republicans who voted for Glove
land. In Iowa the Democrats are dick
ering for the "Greenbacker" support
which is precisely what the Republicans
would desire them to do. In Ohio the
Democrats have taken up the "anti-
sumptuary lava thing that will lose
them far more votes than it will gain
for them.
But while it is catching at every hope
of support from isms and factions, it has
evaded every real issue. As General
Sherman pointed at in his able speech,
all the issues that are settled are settled
by Republican victories, which the
Democrats do not venture to question
The Democracy, by acquiescing in the
settlements of every question that the
Republicans have decided, virtually ae
knowledge that the Republicans were
right and they were wrong. 1t is so to-
day. The rag baby, the silver lunacy,
the anti-national bank fight, the tariff
and ether questions are things upon
which the Democracy does not dare any
longer to raise issues. 1t Is party of
nsgations, and relies for victory, not on
its own merits, but upon what it hopes
to find the weakness of its adversary.
But this is not enough The Republi-
can party last year chastised its own or
ganiZation and rebuked its own machine
management, but that does not signify
that it is going to do so again TO please
the Democrats. What was done then
was done to cleanse the party of its boss
ism, and now that this is accomplished
they mean TO win in the coming elec-
tiOns. 1t is an off year, it is true, and
the real trial of strength will not take
place until "a. but the reorganization is
now in progress looking to the presi-
dental year. In Pennsylvania the Re
publican party is stronger than it has
been for eight years So also in New
York. In Ohio the Hoadly campaign is
pitiably weak, while the Foraker battal-
ions are strengthening every day. Eve
rywbere the Democratic columns are
dispirited and depressed, and this de-
preston seems to increase as the time
of trial draws on Baltimore Amer
lean.

The Saloon-Keepers' Test.

II there is any class of persons in
Ohio who still believe that the liquor
question is not the one all-import N
issue iu the present campaign, the sa-
loon-keepers are not included. They
know ne other issue and are determined
that the candidates for office shall know
no other.
At the recent meeting in Toledo an
executive committee was appointed,
with members from every county, whose
duty was 10 look into the records of po-
liiical candidates with view TO learn
ing whether their future action, if elect
cd, would be favorable or unfavorsble
to the salaos-keeping interest. Hamil
ton county has bssn little backward
in organizing. so on Monday afternoon
Mr.. Mueller, one Of the executive com
mittes of this city, went down TO Gin
cinnati to spur up the saloon men to
more active work. The Enquirer says
the meeting was large one, continued
in session all the afternoon, and was
-very a. mated" The situation was
consider ed in all Its phases and the re-
suit was a unanimous determination to
work together and work vigorsasly.'
The plan Of action has been openly
proclaimed. In every county this eandi-
dates Of either party y-particulsrly those
for the Legislature-willb be subjected to
a searching examination by the repre-
ssatstivss Of the saloon-kespsrs' league.
From the reports Of the examiners in
each county the State Executive Com
mittse will make up list Of candidates,
stating which are TO be scratched and
which voted for. lis agreed that this
list shall govern the votes belonging to
the league, and it is expected that 1t
will also govern the votes OF all the
friends of the ssloon-ksepers or persons
under their influence.
1t will be an ultimatum in the case Of
legislative candidates. that they must
pledge themselves to repeal Of the
Scott law, or to such legislation as shall
kill that law by !ndirection if straight
repeal is found impracticable or impo
litic The object to be attained, in one
way or another, Is the removal Of all
special tax or restraint on the liquor
traffic, and every legislative candidate
who cannot re depended on to further
that object is TO be placsd on the saloon
keepers black list The saloon-keepsrs
are playing a perilous game. Those
whom the gods would destroy they first
make mad" The league saloon-kespers
have lost their heads.-[Clsveland Her

OVERWORKED.

Up with the birds in the early morning
The dew-drop glows like a precious gem;
Beautiful tints In the skies are dawning,
But she's never moment to look at them.
The men are wanting their breakfast early;
She must not linger, she must not wait;
For words that are sharp and looks that
are surly
Are what the men give when the meals
are late.
Oh, glorious cOlors the clouds are turning,
If she would but look over hills and
trees;
But here are the dishes, and here is the
-churning-
Those things must always yield to these
The world is filled with the wine of beauty,
If she could but pause and drink it in;
But pleasure, she says, must wait for duty,
Neglected work is committed sin.
The days grow hot, and her hands grow
weary;
Oh, for an hour to cool her head,
Out with the birds and winds go CHEEKY!
But she must getter dinner and make
her bread
The busy men in the hay field working,
Ifthey saw her sitting with idle hand,
Would think her lazy, and call it shirking.
And she never could make them under
stand.
They do not know that the heart within
her
Hungers for beauty and things sublime,
They only know that they. want their
dinner,
Plenty of 1t. and Just -On time"
And after the sweeping and churning
and baking,
And dinner dishes are all put by,
She sits and sexs, though her head is ach-
ing,
Till time for supper and chores" draws
nigh.
Her boys at school must look like others,
She says, as she patches their frocks
and hose,
For the world is quick to censure mothers
For the least neglect of their children's
clothes.
Her husband comes from the field of labor,
He gives no praise to the weary wife;
She's done no more than has her neighbOr;
'Tis the lot Of all in country lite.
But after the strife and weary tusSle
With life is done, and she lies at rest;
The nations brain and heart and muscle
Her sons and daughters call her
blest,
And think the sweetest joy of heaven,
The rarest bliss of eternal life,
And the fairest crown of all, will be given
Unto the wayworn farmers wife.
ELLA WHEELER.

sha somehow always said the right
thing In a way to make you feel that
she was glad to see you. She was al

you a favor. remember one time when
the husband of lady OF her acquaint-
ance-a paymastsr-Rot into = serious
financial troubls. His money was gone.
He could not account for il. He was
court-martialsd. Mrs. Grant inisrposed
TO save him, for while in the eye Of th.
law he was guilty. morally she believed
him innocent. Mrs. Grant sat up I'LL
midnight to send dispatch to the Off

band was saved. She WAS all the time
doing such things."-N. Y. Graphic.

UNF yRTUHATE CHILDREN.

1t is not generally known that the
Sakhalavas of Madagascar are given TO
infanticide. Every cuill that is uufor-
tuuate enough to eater the world on
Friday Is carried TO The uear, st wood, la d
in shallow hole, sud left to its fate,
Friday being held in Madagascar, as in
many other countries, to be an uhlucky
day. by very different process of
reasoning, certain children born on Son.
day are also doomed to death by ex-
posure. Sunday being a lucky day, t
is considered that Sundays BARNS whose
fathers hold high rank, will, if they aIr
allowed to grow up, become dangerous
to their progenitors, and they are there
fore put out of the way lest trouble should
ensde. Twlns, too. are killed, and ,v,ry
inf,nt whose birth has caused the death
OF its mother is destroyed, because, nc.
co dug to the law of the Sakhalavas, it
is murderer. And when a child is
born at midnight it is customary to place
1t next day upon path by which oxen
go to water. Ii the beasts do not touch
it on their way. the infants life is saved,
but If hoof or a hair brushes it, no
m liter how lightly, the child is slain.

HOMES VERSUS SALOONS.

Women who have sons to rear and
dread the demoralizing influences of bad
associates, ought to understand the ma
ture.of young manhood. 1t is excessive
ly Testl IS. 1t is disturbed by vague
ambitions, by thirst for action, oy long.
inSs for excitement, by irrepressible de-
sire to touch life in manifold ways. II
you, moth.rS, rear your sons so that
their homes are asso;iated with the e.
preston of natural instincts, you will e
sure to throw them in the society that in
some measure can supply the need of
their hearts. They will not go to the
public house at first for love of liquor
very few like the taste of Eqnor; they go
for the animated and hilarious compau-
ionship they find there, which they dis
cover docs so much to repress the dis
turbing restlessness of their breasts.
See to it, then, that their homes compete
with public places in attractiyenoss
Open your blinds by day,Rnd light bright
fires by night. illuminate your rooms.
Hang pictures upon the walls. Put
books aud newspapers upon your tables.
Have music and entertaining gaines.
Danish demons of dulluess aud apathy
that have so long ruled in your house
hold, and bring in mirIh and good cheer.
Invent occupations for your sons. Slim
ulate their ambitions in worthy direc-
tions. While you make home their de ,
light fill them with higher purposes than
mere pleasure, Whether they shall pass
boyhood and enter upon manhood, with
refined tastes and noble ambitions, de-
peuds on you. Believe 1t possible that,
with exerlion and right means, q mother
may have more control over the destiny
OF her boys than any other inhu snee
whatever.

THE OLD LADY AND THE LOCOMOTIVE

would stop their teams far enough away

and slaps the old mare with the lines and

stops as though she was going to eat

in the cab window, through her spec
tacles, slaps the old mare some more, and
she meanders off the track Just before /

my heart is in my mouth, and she looks
just as though she thought was running

Is going to have shower of black mare
aud buggy wheels and spectacles, and
