Why People Should Eat Honey.

Thousands and ters of thousands of
children are dying all around us, who,
because their everdeveloping nature de-
mands sweetness, crave and eagerly de-
molish the adulterated "candies and
syrup" of modern times. If these
could be fed on honey instead, they
would develop and grow up INTO healthy
men and women.
Children would rather eat bread and
honey than bread and butter; one pound
of honey will reach as far as two pounds
of butter, and has, besides, the advan-
tage Of being far more healthy and
pleasant tasted, and always remains
good. while butter soon becomes rancid,
and often produces cramp in the stom-
ach, eruptations, sourness, vomiting and
diarrhea. Pure honey should always
be freely used in every family. Honey
eaten upon wheat bread is very bene-
fetal to health.
The use of honey instead of sugar
for almost every kind of cooking is as
pleasant for the palate as it is healthy
for the stomach. In preparing black
berry, raspberry, or strawberry short
cake, it is infinitely superior.
1t is a common expression.that honey
is luxury, having nothing to do with
the life-giving principle. This is an
error-honey is food in one of its most
concentrated forms. True, it does not
add SO much to the growth of muscles
as does beefsteak, butt does impart
other properties no less necessary to
health and vigorous, physical and in
tellectual action. 1t gives warmth to
the system, arOuses nervous energy and
gives vi gor to all the vital fanctions.
TO the laborer it gives strength-to
the business men, mental force. Its
effects are not like ordinary stimulants,
such as spirits, ETC., but it produces
healthy action, the results of which
are pleasing and permanent sweet
disposition and bright intellect. -

The New Comet.

The new comet is now visible to the
naked eye, and may be found with little
trouble any clear night. At present the
best time for looking for it is an early
hour in the evening. Look to the south
west and towards point little more
than half way from the horizon to the.
zenith. Near the Great Cross, which
ranges directly across the Milky Way"
and near the star which forms the south
ern, or left arm Of the figure, is very
faint star, one degree distant. The tail
at first will not be visible, but with the
aid of an opera glass it will come into
view, streaming upwards. 1t is grow
ing brighter every night, and will reach
its maximum brilliancy about the 18th
of January. The astronomical interest
which attaches to the present visitant
comes from its remarkable verification
of the tracing of its orbit and compute
ton of its period seventy years ago. 1t
was first discovered by Pons, French
astronomer, in 1912, at the time Napo-
Icons grand army of invasion was en-
tering Russia. The astronomer Encke
afterwards computed its revolution and
confidently predicted its return IN the
year 1888. AS the time approached for
it's temperance the records of Encke's
computation where overhauled and re-
examined by astronomers and telo-
scopes were trained on the quarter of
the heavens in which it should come
into view. Early in September last.
the comet came into view, about the
time and at the place when and where
it was expected remarkable and
most gratifying verifcation of the COM
putation Of an astronomer who had long
rested in his grave, and a signal proof
of the correctness Of the grounds upon
which mathematical astronomer is
founded. LEX.

Prohibition in AtchiSOn.

A dispatch from Atchison says -
''The agitation over the prosecution
against the liquor men continues, but
is somewhat lesscned by the action Of
the city council, which has adopted an
ordinance regulating the sale of liquor,
to go into effect February 1st, which
provides that monthly license of s100
shall be paid in advance, and that all
saloons shall close every night at II
O'Clock, and on Saturday night at 10
o clock, to remain closed Sunday, and
not to open until 5 o clock every morn
ing, including Mondays; that no liquor
shall be sold to minors nor to known
drunkards. This is the nature of a
compromise on the part of the city. and
to be acted upon by the temperance
people. Under this arrangement it is
thought the saloons will be cut down to
ten from forty-fve, and be more readily
controlled The Prohibitionists held a
meeting, at which they decided on a
series of resolutions, that sixty days
time would be granted to all liquor
dealers to close out stock on hand and
make arrangements to quit the business,
bat in view of the high license ordi-
dance they have decided to withhold
prosecutions for that sixty days to see
the effect, and if it be at all beneficial
and shows evidence of good control,
the matter may remain in this condition
indefinitely. The ordinance meets with
the approval and sanction of every
leading business interest of the city.

Too many of our people are apt to
think that it matters but little whether
the newspaper is paid promptly or not;
that is small sum and is of but little
consequence. This is not because the
subscribers are unwilling to pay, but
rather because they are negligent. Each
one imagines that because his years in
debtness amounts to so small a sum,
the printer cannot be much in want of
it, without for moment thinking that
the fruit sof his business are made up
largely of such little sums and that the
aggregate of all subscriptions is by no
means an uncomfortable amount of
money

Now, we are not much of a weather

killing of Till DriscOll.

The San Antonio correspondent of
the Fort Worth Journal SAYS: News
reached this city last week of the killing
of Till Driscoll, we'll known Texas
cattleman, on the Bosler ranch, near
Springer, New Mexico. 1t seems from
what information is obtainable, that
Stephen W. Dorsey, of star route
notoriety, had owned this ranch, and
when his trial came on sold it to Jim
Bosler and others, who placed Till
Driscoll in charge as manager. After
Dorsey was acquitted, on the pretext
that Bosler and party had not met their
obligations, Dorsey attempted to get
back possession, but was resisted. War
was kept up between the two factions,
and now we get the news of the killing
of Till Driscoll and several employees
who were under him. MIR Dali Dris-
coil his brother, has gone to the scene
of the trouble to make an. investigation.
Fill had many friends who will deeply
regret to learn this sad news.

A man of great intelligence might
make success in running country
daily, but when it comes to conducting
a metropolitan weekly he is out of his
forte. We are surprised that the i'm
portance and greatness of some people
have not drifted them to a more con-
genial cline, where their talents would
be appreciated, and where they would
be better fitted for the work they aim
to do. To see a personifed mass of

ought to be controlling the New York
