The sham and the Real.

Every good thing has its host of imi-
tators; every genuine article has its
counterfeits. Bad manners and wicked
habits have theirs also; but he who
shams the bad never boasts of it, while
they who ape the virtues of the good or
simulate the genuine never hesitate TO
place the counterfeit before the public in
their most alluring tones. When these
people initiate, they always choose a
pronounced type. or popular subject to
COPY from, and when they claim to be rs
good as sSo-and-So," or TO sell an article
equal to "So-and-So," the public may de.

that Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup
was Just the article needed, procured II
supply for the child. On reaching home
and ncquainting his vito with what no
had done, she refused To have II admins
tered to the child, as she was strongly in
favor of homeopathy. That night the
child passed In suffering, and the parents
without sleep. Returning home the day
following the father found tho baby still
worse, and while contemplating another
slccplcss night, the mother stepped from
the room to attend to some domestic du-
ties, and left the father with the child.
During her absence he administered u
portion of the Soothing Syrup to tho
baby, and said nothing. That night all

Andy Spears, colored, charged with
the theft of cattle, in three cases, was
shot in the head yesterday morning,
