Advertising.

Intelligent business men admit
advertising in the Standard pays.
The Standard circulates among the hon
est, thrifty people, whose custom is de-
sirable.
David d. DUNCAN, the great dealer in
Groceries, Provisions, Produce, &C., told
us when we settled with him, at the end
of the year, that he was sure his advertise
ments and notices had paid him well, and
he intended to increase his advertising
We always like to advertise for such men
asrMr. DUNCAN. 1t is pleasant to have
our subscribers say to us that what we
say about our advertisers is true, and that
all the truth has not been told. Mr.Dungan
keeps nearly everything that can be eat
en-, either by man or beast, from corn and
hay down to the greatest variety of gro
ceries and provisions. We cannot in
whole year specify his numerous arti-
cles. Call and ask for what you want.
He has it.

We maintain that there are no infdels
in this world. The very fact that pro-
fessed unbelievers are constantly attack
ing the churches, and religion generally,
is proof positive that they are believers.
If they believed there is no truth in the
Scriptures, and no reality in religion, they
would be willing to allow the poor blind
churches to go cropping onward in igno-
rance. But the fact is, the man who sets
himself up for an infidel does SO as an ex-
cuse for his own perverse wickedness,
and unless he is lamentably ignorant and
vicious, expects at some convenient sea-
son to come around and seek forgiveness
for his sins.

Record.
In our "Daily Observations bearing
name of the day on which it was written,
we mentioned that Judge Trip had gone
to Portsmouth, which was true. So far
as we can ascertain, no such man as
Trippe ever lived in Jackson County.
Our item was written on Friday or Sat
urday, and it would seem that on Monday
a man named Trippe arrived in Macarthur
and acted as Presiding Judge" We are
sorely afraid that in selling out and buy
ing back his office" Tony has become sad
ly turned around.

A short time ago man became Offend
ed becase we published his name in con-
nection with drunken brawl in the
streets. We are always sorry to wound a
mans dignity and self-respect, especially
when he guards it so jealously himself.
But we met cur friend on the street on
Saturday, and he was wildly, idiotically
drunk, and making a public nuisance Of
himself. The procession from the dog
gerry to the grave is recruiting rapidly in
this town. King Alcohol seems to be
holding high carnival just now.

This weather, with the the thermome-
ter away down several notches below ze-
70, is good time for the married lady to
test the love of her husband. If he per-
mits you to set a. coal bucket or water
bucket down in his sight, without any
evidence of having taken the hint; if he
lies in bed of a morning and innocently
inquiries if it isn't "time to get up" he is
Indifferent. But if he rushes into the
house in the evening, asks eff there is
anything he can do for YOU; if he bounc-
es out of bed in the morning, builds a
roaring fire, puts on the tea-kettle, gets
you in coal and water enough to last till
he gets back again, he loves you, you may
depend upon it.

a couple of colored boys were engaged
in an animated discussion upon the use
Of tobacco, on the streets of Jackson a
few days ago, when one-who chews-
said:
81 know chewin' don't hurt ye like
smokin' cause Physiology says it don't.
The other eyed him for moment with
that look of utter disdain which con-
ceited person always feels in the presence
of a supposed inferior, and rolling "two-
for" lovingly between his lips, burst forth
with:
"Physy-golijy be dog-goned! 1 know
smokin's gooder'n chawin', AN I'm goi1a
ter Smoke!"
That ended that argument.

The Waverly Watchman has been
bowling at Jackson County, for long
time, because our Commissioners do not
go into the wholesale building of turn
pixies, even asserting, unblushingly, that
we were driving valuable trade to Wa
verify by our neglect in this matter. Oc-
casionally, however, a hard, cold fact
creeps up through this bowling, which
fact bears witness that jackson County
can manage her own affairs better than a
neighbor can do it. The last number OF
the Waterman, in a long article, contains
this:
"One of the heaviest taxpayers of Per-
ry Township was in our Office one day last
week and complaining of the extravaganza
of our Commissioners. He said that the
extravaganza of the Commissioners had
almost doubled his taxes within the past
few years and if some stop was not put to
it before long the people of his township
would be broke up paying taxes
The remedy for this state of affairs is
very simple. Let the people of Perry
Township double their taxes, build few
more pixies, and the increased trade" of
the county will render their farms so
much more valuable, that they may re-
tire from business, and do nothing but
pay taxes.

We see bv the Handen Enterprise thai


We see by the Harnden Enterprise that
the Marshal of Wellston was going to
literally "chaw up Cameron, the editor,
for having published that Gallipolis sto-
ry. Well, perhaps the Marshal ought to
whip his slanderers into silence. We
still insist that the Marshal was after
Fraley, in West Virginia, and that he
was "only half an hour behind him" :"
The story that this referred to the differ
ence of time between his and Fraley's
watches, is a mistake. The officers "laid
for Fraley, in West Virginia, and if he
didn't come along it wasn't their fault.
The detectives" were ready to receive
Fraley if he had come, and the newspa-
pers should abuse Fraley for not coming,
rather than the officers for not catching

There has not been, for many years, in

while longer, one half of the Township
would be on the other half. Persons who
little dreamed of ever asking public aid

Our blessings are not appreciated until

among them is health, the lack of which

Dear wife, it is showing again tonight,
And the earth about us is pure and white,
With the feathery crystals falling;
The boys are out for romping play
Through the snowy air of the closing day
We may hc ar their voices calling.
They sing aloud in their boyish glee,
IT'S happy chorus for you and me
Those darling boys are singing;
Our hearts rejoice in the merry song
IT'S echoed the frozen streets along
And their laug hter, loudly ringing.
,Tis merry heart that can sing and play
Through the biting cold of winter day,
And the storm-winds wildly blowing;
And while the roar of the wintry blast,
With its freezing breath, goes flying past,
With warm love-light is glowing.
Yet these are ours; there are other hearts
Where the pain of nameless terror starts
At the sound of the cold and shrieking;
These winds rush by DER many cot
Where the Blessed Comforter cometh not,
The word of gladness speaking.
There are homes that are shrouded in deep de-
spair-
And borne aloft ON the wintry air
With the songs of our loved ones mingling,
Comes the wall of distress, the cry of fear,
From hearts that are filed with grief to hear
Fen the sleigh-bells' merry jingling.
While we lift our hearts to the God of Love
Who ruleth our lives from His realms above,
In return for each bounteous blessing,
Let us make plea for the squalid homes,
Where the blast of the freezing winter comes,
Those humble hearts distressing.
That He who is able to temper the storm
To the new shorn lamb, may keep them warm
BY His bounteous mercy given;
Then let us take to each humble door
Some needed gift for the suffering poor,
And thus teach them of Heaven.
Each kindly act may perform its part
In the building up of Christian heart,
And keeping the love-light glowing;
With God in each heart, we shall feel no fear,
When again those words shall startle the ear;
ssTo-night, again, 1t is showing"
