Bed Clothes Of Paper.

A paper-making firm IN New Jersey
has for several weeks been turning out
counterpanes and pillows of paper.
No. l MANILA paper is used, two sheets
being held together by u slender Irvine
at intervals of three or four inches the
Irvine is gummed SO AS to hold the
sheets firmly together where it lies.
A hem is placed on the Counterpart to
keep it from tearing f; the safety edge is
composed of Irvine. Ornamental de-
signs are stamped in the outer surface
of the covers and cases, giving them a
neat, attractive appearance.
When these cOunterpanes and pillow
cases become wrinkled from use, they
can easily be smOOthed out with a hot

The Error Of Government.

"Were half the wealth bestowed on camps
and courts
Given TO redeem the human mind from
error,
There were no need of arsenals aud fort. -
Lon0JeiiOt0.
The errors of government, the mis-
takes of rulers, can be traced on the
historic page from patriarchal times to
this year of the 10Th century. Some OF
these errors were the result of iknor-
ance, Others of tyrannic natures or of
cruel ambition, and wrong was con-
sequence flowing from these in purple
streams, which all the wars and revo-
lutions of the world have not damned
with the truth or dried up with justice
Tribal rule and absolute despotism
were succeeded by the feudal system,
which had its Lords of the Manor and
their retainers, its Suzerains and their
vassals. Still, there was more or less
tyranny and despotism extant in the
world, although feudalism, in itself
wrong, introduced family government
and contained the germ of local self
government. With the exception of
the theocracy of the Jews, the most
people, originally, either had tribal
organization or lived under an imperi>
al, despOtic, municipal system, like
that of Ancient Rome. After the fall
of Rome, and on the establishment of
Feudality, they lived as families hav-
ing certain rights and immunities, ac-
cording to their rank or station. Hence.
it has become to be that "a mans house
is his CASTLE" from the fact of the cas-,
ties of the ancient barons, who were
masters therein. Hence, also, repres-
entative government took form in after
times, because the barons not only
stood for themselves, but represented
their people also. Before this, there
was no country, in the present sense !;
only towns and cities, i'm which even
the people who titled the land lived as
did all others. Uunder the Imperial
Caesars of Rome were thousands of
officers, hut all power and authority
reached back to Rome where the Em-
peror was supreme. Every dignitary,
all the provincial governors were re-
sDonsible to him, from the lowest to
the highest. This was the "One man
power" this was despotism!
In 404 Hengist and Horsa came over
to Ancient Britain NOW England. or
the British Isles,) and set up what is
known in English History as the Sax
on Monarchy. This Monarchy was in
turn overthrown, and the Norman
Monarchy substituted instead by Will
liam the Conqueror. But 1t was these

dreaming Of the merry DAYS of old.
Everything here seems to speak of q
departed prosperity, and even the
droves Of geese that march lazily
through the quiet old streets seem to
look up at the bustling American with

IN MEMORY OF GRANT.
NY COL. :. y. THoN As.

A hero has passed DER the river,
To rest I'm the shade of the trees,
Where sorrow il ended forever,
And the weary dwell at their ease.
The conquerer's sword now is sheathed,
From its wielder's belt tits released,
And the battle-singed brow vict'ry wreathed
Since the thunder of cannon has ceased.
His brilliant career Is now ended
He has dropped his helmet and shield
His path TO the grave he has wended,
Tojoin comrades who fell ON the field.
The heroic spirit that trod
To the earth the Confederate plume,
Has been called by an almighty God
To MI an illustrious tomb.
While to-day for hero we grieve.
Whose trials OF life are now done,
Let the hands of memory weave
A dream Of many brave sons
Who peacefully sleep with the dead,
Where 10 battle their leader they followed
Who sleeps in n cold narrow bed,
Which comrades bayonets have hallowed.
Not tear save the glittering dew
From heaven at dawn of day
Falls ON the tomb of the Blue,
Or the half-buried forms In Gray.
Unsung meath the grasses entanged,
Sleep thousands of heroic dead,
Who fell meath the banner star-spangled,
And the stripes of the red whit -and-red.
Indeed this fair land is dotted
With tombs of the brave and the true,
Who sleep I'm garments blood-spotted-
In their garments of Gray and of Blue.
The Empire State claims this her bourne,
In the sound OF the Atlantic's boom;
While she with the nation must mourn,
She can boast of AN illustrious tomb.

Whose soil covers the ashes of three

And in peace all covered with glory,
He died ON the summit of fame.

In a land that is fsirer than day,
In the ranks OF a Leader impartial
Who loves both the Blue and the Gray.
And now DER the tomb that we cherish,
An undying flower let US plant
Though the body must wither and perish,
Long live the memory OF Grant!

who lives with his father about five
miles Southwest of Greenville. hap
pened to quite a serious accident which
resulted in making him a cripple for
life. He attempted to step on the
drivers place Of a threshing machine
when his foot was caught in the wheel
and crushed almost into u jelly. A lev.
er had to be taken of before his foot
could be gotten out. All those present
were ~ frightened and nervous that
they could not unscrew the bolt that
held the lever, and young Drake took
the wrench and userewed it himself
He was carried home and his leg am
putated. He was bright intelligent
young man, just come Of nge and the
accident Is deeply deplored

There are some deeds that are so con-
temptible, and some words spoken
only to mortify and give acute mental
pain. by few men and women of this
world, that / can account for such
deeds and words only ON the hyporhe-
sis Of natural born meanness in said
men and women. Their deeds are
worthless, only for showing forth SMALL
ness and baseness of soul. Their words
cheer and enlighten not but needlessly
wound aud insult. Some of these,
people claim to always speak their
minds" Then God pity such minds
like neither their principles nor their
practice.
The Divine Being heaps favors, ever
liberal and faithful, ON his servants;
and desires in return for all these only
love and obedience. Can any one who
Is full of hate and malice, who is selfish
and enviOus. who has q vile, bitter
tongue, be his servant? He or she
who loves the whole human family,
who Is full of kind feeling, thought and
language, also loves and reveres God.
lgnoble, base minds hate true worth
and genuine gentility. Were charity
THAT covers a multitude Of sins), civil
ity THAT costs noihing), and love In
their hearts they would give the need
OF praise where due; and where not,
they would remain silent.
God is a just God; therefore, they
who are set to rule over others should
be just also, should they desire to be
considered his servants, and not Chill
dren Of Darkness full Of Natural Born
Meanness.
Among the poor, rs well as the rich,
are those whose idleness, love of lux
ury and animal pleasures, linked with
their immOderate passions and unholy
desires, have bound them forever In
thraldom to Satan,-and they live but
to serve him and complete their own
base natures
o, God, il within our souls there Is
such thing as Natural Born Mean

influence to outgrow and Outlive it

our souls May We 50 live, most adora-

selfishness for pious benevolence; love |
Of land. and money, and stocks, and |
bonds-the greed of gain and love of

brotherman harsh words and evil
thoughts for gentle, sympathetic speech
and deeds of love and charity!
We should endeavor to do our duty,

The Comfy tair

Elsewhere in this issue will be found
the premium list for the Stevens
County Fair to be held on Thursday,
Sept. 18th. In perusing it, it should
be remembered, that as no Fair was
held last year, this county Is not EN-
titled to any part of the state appro-
priation for county Fairs and that the
finances of Agricultural Society are at
a low ebb. For this reason, the pre-
miums are small. In offering them,
however, the officers of the Society,
have been careful to name ois1y such
amounts rs they are certain they can
pay. Enough of money has been sub
scrlbed to pay all necessary expenses
and the premiums in full.
No one should he deferred from
making exhibits because the premi-
ums IRE small. There are many other
benefits to he derived from n success
full Fair. quite sufficient to reward all
the time, labor and expense Of organ-
izing and carrying it on and We hope
to see the display just es large, varied
and interesting as it would be with
premiums aggregating thousands of
dollars. As much can be learned and
as much real benefit can be derived
from an exhibition OF this kind, with
out premiums as with them. Another
reason for making an unusual effort
in carrying Oil this Fair is that by 80
doing the county re-instates itself In
the favor of the state and will next
year get its full share of the state ap-
preparation (about $500 OO) and be In
an excellent condition for the work In
the future. It's therefore important
and necessary that this Fair be sue
cess and we are confident that it will
be. 1t certainly will be ifeach OF those
interested Will do his share OF the
| necessary work.
