Water versus Spirits.

The following significant and valu-
able testimony was given by the cele-
brated David Livingstone, physician,
scientist, traveller and missionary, from
the heart of Africa, and after enduring
great privations without water for four
days: No one knows the value of
water till he is deprived of it. We
never need any spirits to qualify it or
prevent an immense draught of it from
doing us harm. l have drank water
swarming with insects, thick with mud
putrid from other mixtures, and no
stinted draughts of it either, yet never
felt any inconvenience from it. My
opinion is that the most severe labors
and privations may be undergone with
out alcoholic stimulus, because those
who have endured the most had moth
ing else but water, and not always
enough of that"

Little Joe, the NewsbOy.

Little Joe first appeared on the streets
of New York two years ago. He was
small and slight, with great brown ewes
and plnched lips that always wore
smile. Where he came from nobody
knew and few cared. His parents, he
said, were dead, and he had no friends.
1t was hard life. Up at four O'Clock
in the morning, after sleeping in dry
goods box or in an alley, he worked
steadily until late at night. He was mis-
used at first. Big boys stole his papers,
or crowded him out of warm place at
night, but he never complained; the
tears would we'll up in his eyes, but
were quickly brushed away, and new
start bravely made. Such conduct won
him friends, and after little no other
boy dared to play tricks upon little Joe.
But the hard work and exposure be-
gan to tell on his weak constitution.
He kept growing thinner and thinner,
but the pleasant look never faded away.
He was accomplishing to the last. Two
weeks ago he awoke one morning,
after working hard selling " extras," to
find himself too weak to move. He
tried his best to get upon his feet, but
it was vain attempt.
"Where is little Joe?" was the uni
versal inquiry. Finally he was found
in secluded corner, and good-natured
hackman was persuaded to take him to
the hospital at Flatbush, where he said
he once lived Every day one of the
boys went to see him. On Saturday a
newsboy, who had abused him at first
and learned to love him afterwards,
found him sitting up in his cot, his little
blue-veined hands stretched out upon
the coverlet.
d" was afraid you wasn't coming,
jerry" he said, with some difficulty,
{" and | wanted to see you once more
so much. ! guess it will be the last
time, Jerry, for l feel awful weak to-
day. New, Jerry, when l die want
you to be good for my sake. Tell the
boys -
But his message never was completed.
Little Joe was dead His sleep was
calm and beautiful. The trouble and
anxiety on his face had disappeared.
But the expression was still there.
Even in death he smiled.
That night one hundred boys met in
front of the City Hall. They felt that
they must express their sense of loss in
some way, but how they did not know.
Finally they passed resolution, which
read as follows:
Resolred, That we all liked Little joe who was
the best newsboy in New York. Everybody is sorry
he has died.
On his coffin was plate purchased
by the boys. This was the inscriptions:
LITTLE JOE,
Aged Il,
he hes I'm
We all liked him.
There were no services, but each boy
sent a flower to be placed upon the
coffin of his friend. This is not fancy

AS the season advances, the pains
and aches by which rheumatism makes
itself known are experienced after
every exposure. 1t is not claimed that
Hoods Sarsaparilla is a specific for
rheumatism-we doubt if there is or
can be such remedy. But the thou
sands benefited by Hoods Sarsaparilla
warrant us in urging others who suffer
from rheumatism to take it before the

have nothing to do with politics in

gather our information from reading
the different correspondents III both
papers throughout the parish of
Morehouse and from the editorials

determined upon competency, de-

have no fears of Judge Bussey's

A sad affair occurred in DeSoto

A sad affair occurred in DeSoto
parish on Saturday night last A
young man whose name was Fields
went home with Matt Moore to stay
all night with him. In the night
Fields got up to open the blinds of
the window, as it was very warm.
Moore heard the noise mt the window
and fred his pistol, the ball passing
entirely through the body of young
Field. Field lived till next day and
begged that Moore be not prosecuted,
as he was satisfied it was uninten-
tional. Moore had killed a man some
time ago and went armed all the time.
This is another one of those sicken-
ing affairs caused by the habit Of
curying deadly weapons.
