AS TO MANNERS.
Every Man the Result Of His Own Boy.
hood and Youth.

Every Man the Result Of His Own Boy.
hood and Youth.
Young people rarely realize. when crit.
cisng their elders. that the traits or habits
that seem to them obnoxious were formed
in early life. If their manners are rude,
if they lack tact, if they are not well in
formed, it is because they have not made
use of their opportunities. Manners are
the truest indications Of character. A dis
courteous person is both careless and sci.
fish, for the best manners are but the ex-
preston Of the golden rule; they are the
card of introduction to strangers. A friend
can introduce you to good society, but he
can not keep you there; that depends on
yourself.
A boy of kindly nature is rarely rude.
A boy Of selfish nature is polite only when
his own desires are not interfered with.
Every man is the result of his own boy
hood and youth. If he has read good books,
kept himself informed on passing events,
he becomes what the world terms a we'll
informed, intelligent man. If he has
wasted his time in trifling conversation,
read only sensational books ard papers,
neglected TO develop the talent which he
surely possesses, he becomes superficial,
q tiresome, if not wicked, man.
If as 4 boy he has not cultivated the
graces and amenities of life, he can not ex-
pcct to become that most delightful of men,
a polished gentleman. If as a boy he has
not studied to avoid collisions with those
about him, has not recognized the rights Of
others, has not cultivated desire to lead
men to higher motives, to give to others the
benefit of his own opportunities, he be-
comes that most unfortunate person, a
tac,less man; nuisance wherever people
are brought together. One of the lessons
every boy can learn is to watch those men
who arouse adverse criticism, and carefully
avoid their habits, both of mind and body.
Remember the old adage: by others
faults, correct your own. "-Christidn Union.

the bag was from an English alligator,
but that the skin of an American ALI

England, and the bag imported thence
to meet the demands of the trade that

ut is not SO good, or, at best. no
better than an American made valise OF

dustry is new in this country as
compared with other fine leather
manufactures. but it is a great in
dustry and employs the best skill. 1t
is older here than in England. The first
use of alligator leather was about
eighteen years ago. when Massachu-
sets shoemaker turned some into
shoes. They were not particularly
good shoes, because the proper way Of
tanning the leather was not under

STOCK ITEMS.

At a late meeting of stockmen in ST

upon Congress to appoint United States

Supervisor Snyder, Of Harlan County,
Neb., is one of the heaviest stock feeders Of
the State. He is now fattening :35 head.
He calculates that each animal will chew
up eighty bushels Of cora, and SOD worth of
hay will be divided among them. He is also
fattening $50 hogs.
In preparing food for stock, such as
cooked vegetables. chopped feed. ETC., al.
ways season with salt. Every animal
Graves it, and must have a certain amount
of saline matter introduced into its system
to enable it to thrive. Many animals real
ly suffer for the want OF salt and lose ap.
petite which is attributed to some other
cause.

carefully removed from the garment and

ordinary soap. After soaking for an hour
or SO the lace should be carefully rubbed
between the hands, and after washing in
several waters it may be boiled if very
much soiled. The lace should not be Srung

The Missouri Pacific strike is over and the
men are returning to work. The concessions
made by Mr. Gould to Mr.. Powderly are not
much different from those which Vice Pres
ident Hoxie proposed at the time of the con-
ference with the Governors of Kansas and
Missouri some days ago. Mr.. Hoxe offered
to fill all vacancies with old employees but he
refused to discharge any Of the men who had
been hired during the strike to reinstate any
of the strikers who had injured the COM
panys property. Nothing was said about
arbitration, but the company has consented
to arbitration before, so that Mr.. Gould's
consent to arbitration is not new conces-
sion. 1t is probable Mr.. Hoxie's proposition
would have been accepted had Mr.. Powderly
been in charge of the strike instead of Mr.,
Martin Irons.
