and efficient public service in the
best interests of all citizens alike, is
the surest guarantee of continuance
of public favor. We need men who
understand and act upon the belief
that the chief end of government is
not to create offices for the sole pnr-
pose Of furnishing q little work and
large pay to an army Of Office holders,
who will serve as the nucleus to rally
support to the administration.
We need men who understand and
act upon the belief that the govern
ment is for the people, and that it is
not the chief business of the firing"
and the "group" to watch each other
so closely that they forget to attend
to matters Of public interest, that
while it is commendable, to remember
ones friends, it is contemplate to
harrass ones opponents.
We need men unselfish and broad
enough in their views to act upon the
conviction that local interests and
preiudices shonld always be subor-
dinated to the general good; and mag
unanimous enough to sacrifice their
own future, if need be, to sustain
measures that concern the public good
as against the policy Of partisan
friends or that of an immediate con-
stituency.
We need, as public officials, men
whom the people can respect for their
ability and official integrity, and
whose lives will bear at least moder-
ate scrutiny; whose character for in
tegrity, sobriety and purity Of conduct
are not such as to make the sphere of
political life a moloch for honesty, or
stigma and reproach among the people.

Phren. journal.
That is the phrase heard in the hall
way of many home, as the man OF
the house is hurrying away to ex-
change daily labor for daily bread in
the mart of commerce, Sometimes it
is the wife who says it, sometimes in
FAINT lips prattle the carressing word,
holding up sweet flower face for the
kiss that is it's warm sunshine of life,
and the strong man waits moment
to clasp his treasure and is gone; and
all day he wonders at the peace of bis
heart, at the nerve with which he
meets business losses, or bears busi-
ness crosses. The wife's kiss did It,
and he realizes that it is not wealth or
position or luck that makes our hap
piness, but the influence we bear with
us from the presence Of those we love.
Kiss me goodbye! Oh, lips that
have said it for the last time! would
you ever ask again in those pleading
tones tor the kiss SO tardily giyenG
Would we not remember that the re-
lation the flower bears to the universe
is as carefully provided for as that Of
the brightest star; that the little ac-
ton Of loving heart goes side by
side with the deed of heroic worth;
that love is the dew Of life; that the
parting Of day may be the parting
Of lifetime.
"How many go forth in the morning
That never come home at night
And hearts have broken
For harsh words spoken
That sorrow can meier set right"
Many tears have been shed over
kisses over those "dear remembered
kisses after death.p Kiss yonr chill
dren, men of business, before you
leave home, kiss the mother Of your
children, and then 60 about your days
work with ''Thank God" in your soul
that you have some one at bone 70
kiss.
