DEAD IN A BALL ROOM.

Last week one OF those sudden
deaths which occur sometimes in
crowded and festive assemblages
spread CONSERVATION in the ballroom
of the Waverly house, Charlestown,
Massachusetts,. Miss Nellie Mcleod,
20 years Of age, an accomplished and
engaging young lady, after waiting,
fell on the ballroom floor and expir-
ed in the presence Of 400 or 500
ladies and gentlemen. The occasion
was the annual house party OF the
Waverly hotel, and all the guests
were in full evening dress. The par
ty was a brilliant affair. Miss Mcleod
was attended to the entertainment
by her father, a handsome, white
haired, distinguished looking man
She Was Of course in party dress, anC
is described as having been very
elegantly alfred She had just fin
ished the FIRST waltz with young
gentlemen with whom she was well
acquainted, and appeared to be all
the while in good spirits, not com.
planning Of any. fatigue or illness af
ter the waltz. She was escorted by
her partner to her father, standing
near the entrance door with some
other gentlemen, when, without so
much as warning cry, she fell to the
floor dead

ADVERTISING A CITY

with the regular subscribers of these

ENEMIES.

The greatest men who ever lived
or attained any position in their age
ana time had their enemies. With
out live, active enemies to goad them
on and sting their energies, they
would doubtless have slept in obliv-
ion. Moses, Job, Daniel of the old.
and John the Baptist, Stephen and
Paul of the new Testament, had their
enemies to try their faith and test
their merit; indeed, all the heroes
and reformers of ancient and modern
times had their foes and would doubt
less never have been known to histo-
ry without the service of spiteful enc
mics to keep them in the path of
duty and lash them on to noble deeds
OF val0r. Yes, enemies have their
uses and wise men will avail them
selves of their benefits. We can i'll
afford to do without hearty, active
enemy. Without one it is almost
impossible to accomplish any good re-
suits. And the having of one is proof
positive that you are somebody.
Wishy-washy, good for nothing peo-
pie never have en- emies-men who
never have an opinion of their own,
never move and never run against
anything-and when a man is thor
oughly dead and buried nothing ever
runs against him.

DO NOT FRET.

Any one who expects to get
through life without a certain share
OF botheration, is under very seri-
Gus mistake. 1t is in the nature of
human affairs for petty vexations to
arise, one can hardly tell how or
wherefore, and he is wise man who,
being aware of this fact, does not al
low himself to fret or fume over an
noyance that everybody has. to en-
counter, and which cannot be help
ed,
tretting does not pay. TO the
contrary, it is always practiced at a
loss of time, strength and temper,
ending in IA great loss of happiness.
Fretters are much more apt to in
dulge In their silly habit of pessim-
ism concerning small matters than
greater ones, and imaginary troubles
are quite as likely to be subject of
their disquietude as real ones. And
If they have nothing real TO worry
over, they will conjure up something
with which to make themselves mis-
cradle.
Nothing is to be gained by fretting.
You $ IMPLY make yourself miserable
by 80 doing, moreover, you are al
most certain to make your family
and friends uncomfortable.
Remember this, ye fretters, and
fret no more.

A SERIOUS ERROR.

] Aoung men are apt to lose sight of
the fact that the fortunes of men far
advanced in life had beginning,
from which they have grown unto
their present proportions. The truth
OF what Benjamin Franklin wrote,
that the first FIVE hundred dollars
was the most difficult to acquire, has
been accentuated by the experience
OF all who have begun at the bottom
and built the foundation of fortune.
But the law of compensation operates
to reward him who experiences the
greatest difficulty in laying the foun-
dation, by intoxicating lessons OF
economy and fixing habits of persist
ent labor that serve to contribute to
his future success. These business
habits serve in two ways they in
spire others with confidence which
furnishes opportunities for the exer-
else of ability. Little things 90 to
make up the sum of all big ones, and
time is an element of all growth,
therefore, young man should early
realize the Importance OF economy
and of saving small amounts to which
he must habitually add, if he would
lay the foundation of fortune. 1t
will involve a self sacrifice for few
years, when, after the success of in
telligent efforts. he can then crafty
his taste. 1t will be found that the
habit OF economy, implanted by ear
ly restraints, will cling to one, and
through frugal but comfortable life
aecumulations will increase. The
great mistake that the young people
OF the present day and generation
make is by following the dictates of |
false pride, and living beyond their
means. This is the sin of the age.
and by it comes the death OF cherish
ed hopes vt independence at the time
Of life when one should indulge his /
ease. How much better it would be |
for young couple to begin life by |
practicing rigid economy, making it |
their aim to accumulate at the ex-
pense OF every other wish or gratifi- |
cation, than, by spending first their !!
own, and then other peoples money |
in extravagant living, be brought so !

that society makes; it encourages the |

Omy and thrift Thrift never follow
ed the tawning of society. The whole
fabric of society should be recon
structed on the one idea of the gen
tility of economy.

A LARGE PENSION.

The largest pension ever allowed
by the government was granted last
week to Cyphert p. Gillette, Of What
Cheer, heokuk county, Iowa, for to-
tai blindness. The amount Gillette
will receive is $4,000 in arrears ana
S72 month. Probably the govern
ment thought Mr., Gillette deserved
a good deal for risking himself among
armed men under such name. Tho
next largest pension ever granted
was to an Elmira On. Y.) man nam
ed Patterson, Who was allowed sl3,-

pension was withheld, however, on
a charge OF fraud. Jacob Dingman.

Observation teaches that a young
man who begins lite by frequent in
diligence in intoxicating drink, gam
bling and evil associations, will soon
find himself a wreck and his fortune,

seldom fail to bring their legitimate
results. As to business in these
times of nice points and close mar
gins, it requires full command of

THE EXPERIENCE OF ADVERTISERS

In all times has been that constancy
in advertising is absolutely indispen-
sable. This seems to be requisite
50 essential that il, perhaps out
weighs that which we placed first,
namely, having something really
good to advertise. Scores Of instance
arc known to us in which worthless
or even harmful articles, as certain
alleged remedies for various aches
and sufferings, both Of man and
beast, have attained immense sales
merely.in consequence Of Of persist
ent advertising. On the otner hand,
many useful articles fail to become
popular because the proprietor gave
up in disgust, on finding that the
public or the trade did not respond
TO his advertising attempts. Art

AN ANCIENT CITY FOUND.

On a large rancho in Northwes-
tern chihuahua, known AZ Rancho
Jose de Babieora, and belonging to
Senator George Hearst, Of California,
and Mr.. Follansbee, of III Paso, have
been found the remains of an an
cient city, hewn and carved out Of
the solid rock, like the City OF Petra,
in ancient Edom. This ancient city
lies in the Businesses OF the Sierra
Madres, and the approach to it is DIFF
iicult. Even the natives travel but
seldom over that portion Of tho
mountains. There il no tradition
existing regarding the city any
where, but the remains show that
the inhabitants of this prehistoric
place were at least partly civilized.
There are hundreds Of rooms exca-
waited in tho solid rock on the hill
sides, and the stone taken therefrom
is used for building and walks out
side. There are different tiers of
rooms and stairways cut in the rock,
leading from one to the other. In
many places the rock is finely chisel-
ed and polished. Col. John g. Fol
lansbee, one of the owners, will
shortly make a careful exploration.
