Address to Young Men.

p Z. Plat delivered lecture before the
Young Mems Christian Association last
evening. His subject was, "A Few Practi-
cal Thoughts to Young Men on How to
Succeed. The lecturer, young man HIM
| self, said he did not propose to educate
those who had passed the meridian of life,
but would address himself to young men.
| He offered such advice and made such sug-
gestions as his own experience had con-
WINGED him were sound and profitable.
The first aim in life should be TO build
character. Everything seemed to revolve
around this one central idea. Success,
reputation, honor-all result naturally;
character is what We are; reputa-
ton, what we seem to be. Let the
first be SCUM correct and good. and the,,sec-
ond will inevitably follow. The next aim
of young man should be to acquire a
competency to promote his own conven-
fence and provide for those who may be
dependent upon him. He should prepare
himself by proper education to become an
intelligent man and good citizen. Tenn
perance was one of the first essentials of
success. The greatest enemy young man
can possibly have is intemperance. If you
have not formed the habit don't do it.
Treat smoking In the same way and above
all things don't smoke a cigarette Itdon't
make you any bigger or better or more re-
spected to either smoke or drink. Boycott
the filthy weed and strong drink.
Avoid evil associations. There are plenty
of young men as good or better than
you are. 1t is good idea for you to form
their acquaintance and thus associate with
them, rather than those who do not come
up to so high standard as yourself An
evil companion can do you no good, and
possibly may do you harm. A muddy
stream flows into clear one The latter is
injured and the former somewhat i'm
proved. Each partakes somewhat of the
character of the other The power of ex-
ample is proverbial. Young men are little
aware of how much their reputation in the
eye of the public is affected by the com
pany they keep. The public upon this
basis judge of his taste, what sort of COM
panions he prefers and predict on no doubt
full grounds what will be the issue in the
formation of his.o character. Punctual-
lty IS another essential to success. Don't
fail to cultivate habits of promptness, even
in small matters. 1t will be of great value
to you in after life.
Shun delays-they breed remorse
Take thy time, while time is lent thee;
Creeping snails have weakest force,
Fly their fault, lest those repent thee
Good is best, when soonest wrought
Lingering labors come to naught.
Act squarely in all your dealings with
men. Inconsistency is an imperfection
against which we should particularly guard
ourselves, for it is failing we incline to
more than any other. Successful men, as
rule, are those who with singleness of
aim follow one calling. He advised all
young men who could do so to learn a
trade and stick to it. Cultivate habits of
industry, and don't be afraid of labor. The
lecturer closed his lecture by reciting Long
fellows Psalm of Life"

At the meeting of the committee having
charge of the arrangements for the open

THE CoTToYY CUSHION SCALE-A prom
inent citizen of Sacramento writes to the
RECoRD-U UNION as follows: al had talk
with the.new pest officer for this section to-
day. He says there are at least twenty
places in the city where the cottony cushion
scale fiourishes. The people will not clean
up, and will pay him nothing for doing the
work. There is no salary to the office, and
he cannot afford TO 10 it for nothing. He
has no power to enforce the law: so we will
90 on, and in two years it will be impossi-
bic to eradicate the pest. 1t would seem
that the well known example of neglect
shown by Los Angeles should stimulate
this matter, but we are the same here as
they were-waiting for it to cost a large
amount before doing anything
CARRYING THE MAILs.-Postmaste Ste

Gus applicants for the place.

WHY TIE FLAG FLAPS.


As Remarkable n Race ms Ever was Record,
ed Even In tho Remarkable West.
CaieagO Mws.
The little Quaker village Of Western
Springs on the Burlington road, has q
queer custom which causes a good deal Of
merriment among the patrons Of the road.
Close to the track Is q small grassy In.
closure furnished with seats and adorned
in the center with ffag.pole. This flag
Is only raised on three occasions, viz.
Washington's Birthday, Fourth OF July
and tho birth Of child within the limits
OF the village. The latter provision orig.
mated Ut the time when Western Springs
was making strenuous efforts to become q
village by reason Of the required popula-
ton. 1t lacked twenty. fve souls Of the
number necessary 10 obtain for
itself that proud distinction OF
corporation. The good men and wo.
men Of Western Springs were bending
their energy in this direction, and spared
no trouble which would bring nearer the
desired object, A committee was ap.
pointed whose duty II was 10 skirmlsh
about in the city and induce people TO re.
move 10 this abode OF faith and mineral
water. In some instances houses were
offered, rent free, 10 any families who
would occupy them. The prospective
birth Of a child was always q topic Of ser.
ious conversation, and when q glance Of
the staff showed the stArs and Stripes OK.
ultatlon took possession Of tho Western
Spfinger's heart.
Slowly the population arose toward the
magic number, and the excitement became
intense. Ministers offered their services
gratuitouSly 10 couples contemplating
mattimony, and the committee Of public
safety offered to "set up" In house keeping
such couples as realized their desires,
Several took advantage Of these Offers,
and in time the hamlet was proudly In
cOrporated as q village. II keeps up the
good custom Of ilag.raising.

Better Drinking Water for wheeling

Wheeling Is among those cities whose
drinking water Is unsightly and unwhole
some. Wheeling ia also among those toe
numerous cities whose last thought turnl
on the point Of the water supply. Coco
streets are hard to get, but easier thar
pure water. For some reason, in spite O
complaint and Of the sad reminders dis
ease and death, II Ia easier TO do almost
anything else than TO put in the homes
Of the people water fit to 60 into the
human stomach.
The people Of the settlements along the
Ohio drink the water from that great sew.
age conduct, and with It the germs oil
disease. Nobody expects going on doing
this forever. We are going to continue
drinking mud instead Of water, and pay.
ing all other penalties, until somo fright.
full and long continued calamity drives US
into something better. This is the present
prospect. A more rational and more bus.
iness like way would be to see whether
we cannot devise or find some means to
improve the order Of things ct once.
Several cities, situated much as our own

wanted in the Hyatt Glter. Charleston

tober 10, speaking Of the filters erected at
Bellsyille, Illinois, says that tho water,
