How TO HAVE Coon LOCAL PAPERs.-
This from the Nashville Courier.
If you want live newspaper, patronize
it. If you want good paper, sustain it.
Not only by advertiser. literally, SUBJ
scribing freely, and paying promptly. but
bring its claims to the notice ef those YOU
daily come in contact with speak well Of
it at all times. and keep the editor posted
as to the passing events In your neighbor-
hood.
Very true. That is the way to have a
live, Mide-awake, progressive newspaper
one that isfGlly abreast OF the times-pusli-
| ing. going ahead and working with vigor
| for the good of the town and community i'm
which it is published. No newspaper that
! is poorly supported and cramped financially
and as natural result embarrassed and
restricted IN its operations, can do god
and satisfactory work, either to itself or
| its constituency 1t will be we'll for those
who find fault with their home paper be-
cause it is noe larger and better, to re-
| member this.

THE LOCAL PAPER.-The Warrentou
Gazette says this, and there is vast
amount of truth in its remarks:
Your local paper does more than any
i thing else to give your town character
abroad. If you would come TO our table
per, without liberal advertising patronage,
you would decide at once that it was from
some small village or lifeless town. If you
should pick up paper full of live local
advertisements, you would say that the
business men of that town were fall ,tSf
snap and enterprise, and that it was a
lively town. Moreover, advertising In a
good paper will draw custom to a town
that weald otherwise he attracted else
where. Your local newspaper has there
fore an influence in giving your town char
acter. and in drawing trade to it, that
should not be overlooked. and the bust
ness men of the town owe it a liber Il sup.
port, and they are standing In their own
light when they try to see how little they
! can advertise in il. The poorly patrorizad
paper gives the town away.

pens. Suppose you try, miss, how it looks in writing2" Childish as the idea was. A. ynea tried the experiment.. "If let you mention me-" she said, i've must at least decide what you are to say" She wrote the words in the briefest and plainest form: "I venture to state that my wife has been known from be,. childhood to Miss Agnes Lockwood, who feels some little interest in my welfare on that ac- count" Reduced to this one sentence. there was surely nothing in the reference to her name which implied that Agnes had permit ted it, or that she was even aware of it. After last struggle with herself, she handed the written paper to Emily. "Your husband must copy it exactly, without altering any thing" she stipulated. "On that condition I grant your request" Emily was not only thankful-she was really touched. Agnes hurried the little woman out of the room. Don't give me time to repent and take it back again." she said. Emily vanished.
 "Is the tie that once bound us completely brokeni Am I as entirely parted from the good and evil fortune of his life as if we had never met and never loved" Agnes looked at the clock on the mantelpiece. Not ten minutes since those serious questions had been on her lips. It almost shocked her to think of the commonplace manner in which they had already met with their reply. The mail of that night would appeal once more to Montbarry's remembrance of hel = in the choice of g servant.
 Two days later the post brought few grateful lines from Emily. Her husband had got the place. Ferrari was engaged for six months certain as Lord Montbarrys courier.

III Effect. of !. Wrong Habi

III Effects of . Wrong Habit. Oh, weak alike are pen and tongue
 To picture Angelina's gracesl The amorous poets who have sung
 Of fairy forms and angel faces Ne'er looked upon a face so sweet,
 An eye so bright, a lip so rosy, A form so lovely, so complete
 Of female charms so fair posy. The beauty of her face outvies
 The summer gardens rich adorning; The tint her velvet cheek that dyes
 Is like the new blown rose of morning. Her dresses, tack as jet, caress
 X neck as white as alabaster, Who looks upon her loveliness
 Looks surely to his hearts disaster. But not the beauty of her form,
 Or face, which every eye enriches, Is Angelina's chiefest charm,
 Her sweet demeanor more bewitches. Her smile is like the mornings eye
 When opening spring the earth rejoices, And like the richest melody
 Of birds the music of her voice is. But was there ever woman yet
 Could stand critical inspectionf Since Eve was made who ever met
 One wholly free from imperfection! And Angelina-muses weep.-
 This maiden, fairer than Aurora, Has her defect; when she's asleep
 She is most tremendous snorer.

As Bad as 8 Man.

Did you ever encounter Q demonstratively drunken woman in street conveyance, where you could not relieve yourself of her presence within certain time without inconvenience! I did, the other day-or rather the other night, for was on my way to a down town theatre. She was a young woman-perhaps 25. Her dress was neat enough, but tawdry, and she carried pretty babe in her arms, which could not have been more than months old. The car.was well filled, but not so we'll as she was. Suddenly she removed a stony stare from a fat man in fhe corner, and en- deavored to look out of the window behind her, maintain the upright and hold the baby simultaneously.
 "Won'er where we areF' she said aloud. "Guess we'll be late home, baby. Do you hear mammals pet. Who caresl Hoop la Everything goes-don't it, baby, heyg'
 Three or four whisky laden kisses here at tested the mothers affection. The ladies present shuddered, the gentlemen scowled, and the young man who was smoking a bad cigar on the rear platform grinned, while a newsboy engaged in stealing ride peered through the glass and tried to firt with the infant. For a few moments the exhilarated female seemed lost in thought, during which time the little one was only saved from a descent to the floor by kindly disposed neighbor. Then she made sudden dive for her pocket.
 ''Hullo-aint got my night key I say, baby, what you think O that3 We've lost the key. We'll, everything goes, and SUD- pose we've got to make a racket to get in. Whoop! It's all right anyhow-ain't it, baby Say, conductor"-
 Here she glared at the man with bad cigar, and he stopped grinning and looked another way.
 "Hullo, this is a bobtail. No conductor on bobtail. Forgot all bout that-ha! ha! We'll, that's funny, too, ain't it, babya But every. thing goes, so's all right. Whoop!

READING FOR REST.

Effects of the Restful Book-The Deeper
 Studies to Be Considered Work.
 Nothing is more restful to the mind than a wisely selected work of travels, description or judiciously selected romance. The TO- mances most common are too weak, and their wit sinks too near to the line of silli- ness, to offer much repose to a person famil- far with the best writers, and the effect of such productions is to deprave the taste or to excite irritation. A restful book to tired brain must produce in the mind of the reader sense of satisfaction with moderate stimu- Jus. A tame moral essay, story in which all behave well, go to sleep every night at 9 and rise every morning at to listen to the birds sing, will not suffice; and, on the other hand, narrative that requires the closest analysis, and which appears to be constructed upon the principle of leaving the readers in doubt as to the character of the heroes, is but a piece of intellectual dissection in dis guise, and would better be read for work than for rest. .....
 Everything that relates to history, science, philosophy and the deeper studies of l lman nature should be handled as work. Yet nature rewards the worker by making in the end what at first was difficult, a charm to him. So that the specialist must be upon his guard lest he neglect the work of reading WnaC ne KNOWS ne neeQS TOT the more con- genial occupation of reading what to others would be work, but to him has become pleasure. The life of Charles Darwin, just published, shows that he brought on a prac- tical ''atrophy of the brain" utterly changed his tastes, and became the slave of lines of association to which he had surrendered him. self wholly.
 What is work for one person may be rest for another; and it is equally important to consider that what may be work for per son at one time may be rest at another Newspapers require no work, and he who reads them exclusively will in few years be unable to do intellectual work. Many books of literary character require little or no work. Books made to sell belong gener- ally to the class that can be read as fast as the eye can discern the letters Every per son should select his standard authors with out regard to their popularity. It is rare that really good book, to be mastered by work, has large sale Restful books, from their very nature, may become popular, except among those who make utility their god and restrict the definition of utility to what can be turned to practical use, or has a technical or commercial value, and those whose intellects are so small and sensibilities so abnormally large that they need exhaust ing excitement to hallucinate them into the belief that they are happy.-Rev. J. M. Buckley in The Chautauquan.

After the first kissings and greetings were over, the old nurse (who had been left in charge at the lodgingS had some startling information to communicates, de- rived from the courier's wife.
