sv1cahe oT Amasa stone,


CLEVELAND, o., May u.-Amasa
Stone died by his own hand this a ter
noon. He was founder Of Adalbert
College and extensively Interested in
railway and iron interests throughout
the country. Mr.. Stone had suffered
six weeks from insomnia and indiges-
ton. He grew worse steadI y and be-
came depressed in spirits though b.
seldom complained. He often obtained
no more than two hours sleep all night
and gradually became possessed with
the idea that he could not recover. This,
with losses of late in the iron and steel
business, and multiplicity and tinaD-
cial cares, IL believed to have produced
mental arrangement, and during a fit
Of alteration of mind he shot himself
He did not leave his bed this morning,
having passed q sleepless night. AT
noon he complained of feeling ex eed-
ingly distressed, and about two o'clock
he was left alone to obtain, If possible, "a
little sleep. About four o'clock his wife
went to ascertain how he was, and
found that he was not in his room. She
went to the bathroom, the door of
which she found locked. A servant
climbed through the transom and dis
covered Mr.. Stone, who was already
dead. He was partly dressed, and it is
supposed that after bathing he was
seized with a sudden impulse, and fred
the bullet through his heart. His aim
was accurate, and death must have
been instantaneous. The report of the
pistol was not heard by any one. Mr..
Stone leaves wife and two daughters,
one of whom Is the wife of Col. John
Hay, recently Assistant Secretary Of
State, and the other of Samuel Mather.

HOME,
The True AIT Centre,

In this age Of machinery.
at q time when distance is
discounted and the voice
multiplied, when thought
flies through the quick shut
ties Of electricity, and man
discovers at every fresh turn
new possibilities to enlarge,
80 to speak, his individuality
at a time when out one man
can do the work Of any pre-
vious twenty In an earlier
age, and when he lives in
ten years fully an hundred
Of generations ago, there is
unconsciously, with the de-
yelopment of the spirit of
progress and rapidity, also
q large increase in the spirit
aud power OF materialism,
aud, strange as it may seem
while all the germs OF good
taste and cultivation are
awakened, yet there comes
u question in the minds of
men something like this
eve are living at a fast
pace: so much is to be done.
With the accomplishment
ofgreat tIliiss greater seem
revealed to l,- done, and
time seem, to slip away III
spite of US. Does it pay US,
can we afford to stop and
devote life and wealth to
art; to the cultivation Of fine
things? For example, can
we afford to take time and
capital from our business
and spend them in our
homeso" Often the query
is answered in the negative,
and we find that the one
spot on earth that should
contain all the sweetest and
best in a mans life-his
home-is the most neglected.
Now we hold that the
home is the fountain of a
mans best or worst, as his
home is so will he be to a
very large degree. Let the
home be made beautiful and
attractive; let the aesthetic
side of life bloom out in the
home, and in spite of him
self when the man comes
in from the hard knocks of
the world, comes in with
the hurry, and rush, and
coarser feelings of the ma
terial forces about him, he
will breathe a quieter at
mosphere that will tone him
down, refine him and calm
ing him add that much
more ofintrinsic valueto him
asa man aud a business fac
tor.
In no one way can the
home be made to realize this
possibility so well as in the
fine things made accessible
in the advanced art of Wall
Papering. Nor is the art
any longer subject to the
vulgarity Of the lavish ex-
pense. The days Of shoddy,
of cornucopia display, have
passed, and q man ordinari-
" well-to-do in life may,
with very little outlay, dec
crate his home and fashion
it into a place of rest not
only for his body but his
mind. We take very great
pride to-day in asserting
our profession, for profes-
sion it is. AS Wall Papcrers,
as Art Decorators, we are
striving conscientio1lsly to
make our work tell the story
Of beauty and to contain
htalthful rs well as orua-
mental values. In price, in
design, in the skill of our
artists, We have practically
demonstrated our ability to
compete with metropolitan
houses, and to-day are do
ing work that bears its own
evidence of our tho. Ough
equipment to meet every
requirement of advanced

Help Your Town.

We clip the following from one of
our exchanges, and trust our citizens
will keep the views contained therein
constantly in mind. If they do, zanes-
vile will be more prosperous than it
now is.
"The way to make town is to help
as much as possible every industry in
your midst. Judiciously aid every en-
terp-ise that promises to add strength
and character to the place. If your
neighbor builds a house help him to
pay for it. Ii you are property hold
er, every new house strengthens you,
and it is out right to reciprocate
Don't hide a dollar with penny.
Look ahead. Consider what is best
for you in the long run. Don't be
so jealous. II you can draw advan-
tage from an enterprise forwarded by
an enemy, support it if it does not en-
rich him. BY all means support your
local paper, do unto tie rablisher as
you would have others do unto your
trade with you. Should man start up
legitimate business in an obscure part
of the town, whether or not q friend, or
even an acquaintance, say good wold
tor him whenever occasion presents it
self; it will cost you nothing. and may
do him incalculable good-always re-
membering that 'hread cast upon the
waters will return after many days."
