How a Lithograph 1, Made.

studied the original drawing before Linz
and laid ont his plan hc makes careful

transferred 10 previously prepared stone
and serves as "key" 10 the entire work
and for all the color stones.
The work on stone is drawn VITA =

II is then dampened with water The
printer passes his roller, charged with

application of each successive color, por-

be called the composite tints. while others

The citizens of Richmond have not yet
done their part by the Exposition. We
hear that $4,000 was subscribed and at
the very same time the city of Augusta
fGa.), subscribed 100000, though it is
not half the size of Richmond. We
call attention to one important poin; and
that is the long standing disagreement
between the country districts and the
Capitol, and the opportunity that we
have now to unite the whole State and
make the CITY of Richmond what il
should be, the centre of the State in
business affairs as well as in politics.
We have called attention to the pecu-
liarly advantageous features of the map
OF Virginia centering at Richmond
where there are long trunk lines north
and south, east and west and cheap
deep-water line Of transportation. The
fact is that the location of the city, at
the gate of the South, ia msrvelously
propitious, and 1t only needs the public
spirit of the people 10 call
the whole world to our aid.
The ten columns Of advertising OF
the Exposition which our readers will
end in the TINES will call attention to
the need Of united effort of the people
towards thorough advertisement, Of our
State. We want TO show the whole coun.
try that we have advantages In agrieul.
tural, mineral and mining wealth
that are unsurpassed, and that we can
invite capital and immigration with the
guarantee tina, We have peaceful COM
munlty where there are no strikes and nc

ObScurity of Birth.

1t is only shallow-minded pretenders
who make either distinguished origin
matter of personal merit or obscure
origin matter of personal reproach.
A man who is not ashamed of himself
need not be ashamed of his early con-
dition. 1t did happen to me to be born
in log-cabin, raised among the snow
drifts of New Hampshire, at a period
so early that when the smoke first rose
from its rude chimney and curled over
the frozen hills there was no similar
evidence of white mans habitation be-
tween it and the settlements Oh the
rivers of Canada. Its remains still ex-
list. / make it an annual visit. carry
my children to it and teach them the

tender recollections, the kindred ties,
the early affections and the variations
and incidents which mingle with all l
know of this primitive family abode; l
weep to think that none who then in
habited it are now among the living;
and if ever l fail in affectionate venera-
ton for him who raised it and de-
Tended it against savage violence and
destruction, cherished all domestic
comforts beneath it's roof and through
the fire and blood of seven years. revo-
lutionary war shrunk from no toll, no
sacrifice to serve his country and to
raise his children to condition better
than his own, may my name and the
name of my posterity be blotted from

How TO REDUCE Your EXPENSES.

How TO REDUCE Your EXPENSES
You can do it easily, and you will not
have to deprive yourself of single
comfort; on the contrary, you will en-
Joy life more than ever. How can you
accomplish this result ? Easy; cut
down your Doctors bills. When you
lose your appetite and become bilious
and constipated, and therefore low
spirited, don't rush off to the family
physician for prescription, or, on the
other hand, wait until you are sick abed
before doing anything at all; but just
go to the druggists and for twenty
five cents get supply of DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Purgative Pellets. Take them
as directed and, our word for it, your
unpleasant symptoms will disappear as

tors bill to pay and everybody inter-
ested Except the doctoD will feel

A Judgment Scene.

In one part of the Scriptures judg-
ment scene is described. When the
Judge is seated on his throne, and be-
fore him the people are gathered, he
shall say to those upon his right hand;
"Come We blessed of my father, inherit
the kingdom prepared for you from the
foundation of the earth. For l was
hungered, and we gave rue meat; thirsty,
and we gave me drink; naked, and we
clothed me; sick and in prison, and we
visited me-" How does this apply to
the liquor-dealer, manufacturer or
seller? Let the judge ask of the liquor
man: " Didyou feed the hungry" "No.
l made the hungry, more hungry and
took from him the means by which
he might have lived" did you give
unto the least of my brethren drink"
Yes. l gave him drink, but instead
of refreshing him it turned into
fire within him and made him less
man. 1t cursed him." "Did we find
him naked and clothed him?" "No.
l found him clothed and in his right
mind, and l took from him his gar
ments and left him naked, in poverty
and Distress" "Did you find him in
prison and visit him?" "No. l found
him happy in his liberty with father,
mother, sisters and brothers, or wife
and children, active and free and hon
orable in business, and lowered him
in prison, in shame and wretchedness
and disgrace" With shame-facedness
and a newly-awakened sense of the
tremendous wrong inflicted on every
interest of life the liquor traffic must
plead guilty to this indictment before
the bar of heaven and earth. We can
make no distinctions of persons in a
business which, from first to last, is
corrupt and demoralizing, and which
by common consent, begets more mis-
fortunes than all other causes combined.
1t can be improved only by being
abandoned, and while we wish to re-
spect the bonds of our common human
ity, we will respect individual men only
when they shall wash their hands of
this tremendous evil and swear by the
sanctites of life that they will have no
more of it.-Dr. Rerford Of Detroit.

The Will and the Way.


There's something I'd have you remember, boys,
To help in the battle of life
Twill give you strength in the time Of need
And help in the hour of strife.
Whenever there's something that should be done
Don't be faint-hearted and say,
What use to try?" Remember, then,
That where there's will there's a way.
There's many a failure for those who win;
But though at first they fail
They try again, and the earnest heart
Is sure at last to prevail.
Though the hill is rugged and hard to climb,
You can win the heights, say,
II you make up your mind to reach the top,
For where there's a will there's a way
The men who stand at the top those
who never could bear defeat;
Their failures only made them strong
For the work they had to meet.
The will to do and the will to dare
Is what we want today
What has been done can be done again,
For the will finds out the way

In life's short, narrow span,
on golden stairs to climb so high
Above our brother man?

In slavish homage bow?
Our gold will rust, ourselves be dust
