BAD COMPANY

leads to bad habits. 1.-THE prodigal
wasted his substance in riotous living"
No young manawill make life grand in
his achievements who lets strong drink
fix its hold upon him. So evident is
this fact that one need scarcely speak Of
it, and yet the, Wine cup is the source Of
failure in thousands and thousands Of
lives. Associated with dissipation is
gambling-risks Oh uncertainties. In
lotteries thereate few prizes, but the
great majority are blank. And so in
life the multitude OF those who expect
to stumble on to success find in the end
nothing but failure.
But bad habits involve disregard for
the laws OF health. The frequenter Of
the ballroom, who engages in dancing
and card-playing; the tbeater-goer; the
man who combines these with smoking
and drinking and other kindred vices
ends exposure inevitable. Colds, symp-
toms OF dyspepsia, nervousness are the
result, and disease is followed by failure.
No one who keeps bad company, en-.
cages in bad habits, can attain to the full
capacity OF his abilities, and yet the cry
is, let the young man see the world, en-
Joy himself,
The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1888-12-10
sow HIS WILD OATS,

and then no doubt his experience will
make him q better, steadier man. Such
an illusion is false estimate oil life,
which has ruined thousands.
Will the man who, having wasted all
his lies powers, taken in the whirlpool
Of iniquity as 80 many are, face the
Creator exclaiming, "0h, God! thou art
the cause OF my sins and miseries
against Thee l lay the charge OF all l
have done?" when he has engaged in
what God has prohibited him from
doing.
A man who has done wickedly may
reform, and his wickedness will be for
given him. But mercy cannot blot out
the penalties OF the sinful part, only its
guilt. A man pardoned has not received
again his shattered health, wasted time,
squandered wealth.
A life reformed cannot be made as
good as new. II will not whiten the
reputation. Credit lost is like glass
broken, people will always eye the crack.
Extravaganza is another root OF fail
ure. A want Of economy is the indirect
cause Of many Of the difficulties which
young men find insurmountable, which
leads them to temptations and often to
dishonesty. Therefore waste not, want
not" There is one servant that can
labor continuously not breaking Gods
commandments; invested money; let
your income exceed your expenditures,
II you want to avoid misery and failure.
Other causes OF failure treated upon
were lack Of education, want OF unity Of
purpose and rudeness OF manners.

A Warming.

The modes of deaths approach are vari-
more persons die from diseases of the throat
and lungs than any other 1t is probable
that everyone, without exception, receives
vast numbers of tubercle germs into the
system, and where these germs fall upon
suitable soil they start into life and develop,
at first slowly, and is shown by a slight
tickling sensation in the throat, and if al
lowed to continue their ravages they ex-
tend to the lungs, producing consumption,
and to the head, causing catarrh. Now all
this is dangerous and if allowed to proceed
will in time cause death. AT the onset you
to go without attention is dangerous and
may lose you your life. AS soon as you
feel that something is wrong with your
throat lungs or nostrils obtain bottle of
Boschee's German Syrup. 1t will give you
immediate relief.

Charges Against the Belfast Collector

WAsHINGToN, Dee. 6. Charges have been made
against Hon. Edward Cushing, of Camden Ne
Collector Of the Belfast district relative To the al-
pontmcnt OF some of his deputies. \ srccia!
agent of the Treasury Department WAS sent to
Maine several days ago to investigate. 1t is stated
that the friends of AIR Gushing deny the charge
ana ailege that it has been trumped up by certain
Democrats who want hir. Gushing removed .n,:
another Democrat appointed at once, in the hop.
that he would serve full four years term.
The above despatch was published iii The daily
papers last week, and naturally excited some in
terest here. Collector Gushing spends most OF the
time at his home in Camden, leaving the Beif;ls st
Office i'll charge OF, Capt. }. r. Conant, the deputy
In reply to an enquiry as to what he knew about
the matter Capt. Conant informed Il journal repre
sentative that when Mr. Gushing was last in Bel.
fast he knew nothing about The charge and he had
not mentioned it i'll his correspondence. He said
an agent of the Treasury Department iad been in
Belfast ami he presumed he had gone to Camd.n
to see the Collector. AS to the facts in the ca se
Capt. Conant said 81 can speak for mysclf, never
paid one cent for my appointment" When asked
as to who made the charges the captain said, 81 do
not know. l feel sure they did not come from
Belfast"
1t was claimed later that the charges came from
Camden and the alleged details were freely dis
cussed. We learn, however, that the investigation
failed to substantiate them, and that the special
agent will so report. The Democrats here, with
whom Mr.. Gushing is not popular, were evidently
pleased that he in difficulty and will he disap-
pointed at the result of the investigation. The
scheme to put another Democrat in for a four
years term could hardly have succeeded in any
event.
