ON account Of their efforts to avoid

The schools resume work Jan. 7th,
when it will be especially necessary
that all pupils be present. In the ef-
fort to bring the work Of the schools
to proper grade teachers have used all
reasonable means, among Which may
be mentioned the necessity Of doing

The following item concerning the
Representative of this district in Con-
gress, will be OF interest to his constit-
uents. It is a special to the ST. Paul
Globe Of Dec. l4th:
See what John Lind gave me this
| morning. said Doorkeeper McMathe'
son, of the House, to-day, and he drew
from his pocket an elegant fur-lined
glove for the left hand.
You see, I've lost my right hand
ard have no use for right hand glove,
and Mr.. Lind has lost his left hand
| and has no use for a left-hand sglove.
He bought pair last night and was
good enough to remember me with
this one. He's u good man, and all the
| House employees like him"
THB NAMING OF WORTHINGTON.
ED. ADvANCE:--It will now be well
enough to consider the name of your
thriving village settled, as to the ques-
tion as for whom it was named. Mrs.
| Miller, by virtue of her sex. is entitled
to the last word. AS Rip Van Wrinkle
says. I'VE will not count this" My
memory was at fault in saying the
name was in honor Of Mr.. Humiston g
family, instead Of Mrs. Miller's. 1t
was given doubtless in honor of her
immediate ancestors. and not the fam.
lily at large. So it seems, Mrs. Miller,
you and I were all right, only differing
as to whether the name was for.the
Worthington family at large, or her
branch Of it,. [ often visited my
brothey-in law at the old home, where
his widow still lives. Mrs. Miller is a,
fault in the name Of the place, as
4 printed. The name of the old farm is
not "Adna." but .'Adena." The con.
troversy is ended. Let US have peace
Yours truly. e F, DRAKE.

The young man fell deadl

The young man fell deadl
 A friend had pointed a revolver at him.
 "He didn't know 1t was loaded!"
 We often hear it stated that man is not responsible for what he does not know. The law presupposes knowledge and therefore convicts the man who excuses crime by ignorance 1!
 ''If I had only known" has often been an unfortunate mans apology for some evil unknowingly wrought, but in a matter of general interest as for instance that laudanum is a poison, that naphtha is a deadly ex- plosive, that blood heavily charged with winters accumulations of the waste of the system,-it is one's duty to know the fact and the conse- quences thereof. Our good old grand- mothers knew for instance, that the opening of spring was the most perilous period of the year.
 Why?
 Because then the blood stream is sluggish and chilled by the cold weather, and if not thinned good deal and made to flow quickly and healthfully through the arteries and veins, it is impossible to have good vigor the rest of the year. Hence, without exception, what is now known as Warmers Log Cabin Sarsa- parilla, was plentifully made and religiously given to every member of the family regularly through March, April, May and June. It is matter of record that this prudential, pre- vcntive and restorative custom saved many fit of sickness, prolonged life lnd happiness to a vigorous old age, and did away with heavy medical expenditures.
 Mrs. Maggie Kerchwal. Lexington. Ky, used Warmers Log Cabin Sarsa- parilla "for nervous sick headache of which l had been sufferer for years. It has been a great benefit to me-" Capt. Hugh Harkins, 1114 S. 18th St., Philadelphia, Pa., says "it purified my blood and removed the blotches from my skin." Mrs. Aarea Smith, Topton, Berks Co.,, Pa., says she twas entirely cured of skin dis ease of the worst kind" by Log Cabin Sarsaparilla. Bad skin indicates g very bad condition of the blood.
 Ii you would live and be we'll, go to your druggist to-day and get Warmers Log Cabin Sarsaparilla and take no other,-there's nothing like it or as good,-and completely renovate your impaired system with this simple, old-fashioned preparation of roots and herbs.
 Warner, who makes the famous Safe Cure, puts it up. and that is guarantee of excellence all over the known world. Take it yourself and give it to the other members of the family, including the children. You will be astonished at it's health-giv- ing and ife-prolonging powers. We say this editorially with perfect conf. dence, because we have heard good things of it iteverywhere, and it's nams is a guarantee that it is first. class in every particular.

A Growing Young Man.

Congressman John Wise of Vir- ginia tells good story on John E. Lamb of Indiana, for whom he spoke during the late contest of the latter in his state. Wise did not know how popular Lamb was at home. He was on the cars go- ing to Terre Haute, when short Roman-nosed German turned about and said bluntly:
 Be you drummer,"
 "No," replied Wise.
 Be you a traveler?"
 "No."
 "So," rejoined the German. ''Then what be youi"
 "I am here," answered MT. Wise, Sin a Democratic district, to make speeches in favor of the Republi- can candidate" ... .-
 "You don't tell me you're going down to Terre Haute to make 8 speech against Schon Lamb!"
 "Yes," said Wise, Il am."
 "Nline friend, you make one mistake. Schon Lamb is one of the greatest men in this country"
 "What~ replied Wise, with a smile, Sis he greater than General Grant?"
 "Yes. mine friend, he is greater ss four Sheneral Grants"
 "Not greater than Garheld!"
 "Garfield was not a circum- stance to Schon Lamb. Why, mine friend, Schon Lamb is the greatest man that ever lived"
 "Now said Wise, you don't mean to say that he is a greater man than Solomon"
 "Ah! mine friend," rejoined the German with enthusiasm. II don't say that Schon Lamb is now bigger man than Solomon"-ald here he leaned over toward Wise and shook his finger solemnly in bis face-"but. mine friend, Schon Lamb vas young yet-"-Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.

Profitable Enterprfse.

Too long and too generally the impression has prevailed that loss was a shadow that like vulture followed the pathway of mining enterprise. The untruth that "two dollars have been put into the mines for every one taken Out," has almost crystalized into a croaking proverb. notwithstanding the fact that the metallic currency of the world came from the mines and is largely absorbed in other industries while the gold and sil- yer mines of this country are pro- ducing over eighty-six million dol lars annually. If it be true that this product of the past year cost $172,OO0, 900, then mining must be admitted to be an improbable business. The absurdity of the charge, however, is sufficient to prove its falsity. While it is true that great amount of money has been paid that brought no return. that the record of losses charged to the ac- count of mining is appalling in its magnitude, it is nevertheless true that the mining industry can show larger and more reliable returns for the money invested in it than any other recognized business that can be named. It must be under that money paid for stock certifi- oates offered by strangers, based upon location stakes and an assay certificate, is not money put into a mine nor into mining. It bears no moro resemblance to mining than wheat deals on the Board of Trade do to farming. Blind pur- chases of interest in mining claims. without examination of the charac- ter of the management or the ore, cannot upon any reasonable basis be recognized as mining, as no one would claim that an unconsidered investment in any direction was business.
 A thorough investigation of the available facts shows conclusively that a large majority of the busi- ness men of this country have all most universally found legitimate mining investment profitable, when made upon business principles, as they would make any other invest ment. As a matter of fact a ma jority of the heaviest capitalists and millionairee of the nation owe thsn vast secumulations of wealth

On the morning of March 29th, says the Indiana Farmer, Mir. NJ. B. Smith, who works in a South ern Express office, at Atlanta, Ga, was bitten by a rattlesnake that lay concealed in a crate of cab bage. As he placed his hand upon the crate he felt stinging sensa- tion in one of his fingers and saw that a huge snake had fastened its fangs in his flesh. In a few sec onds the hand and arm began to swell and Mir. Smith was driven hurriedly to Dr. Gaston's office. Dr. Gaston saw the young man was in danger of losing his life and he give him hypodermic in jection of permanganate of potash "a solution of two grains to 8 dram of water. This antidote to snake poison was first used by a Brazilian physician, and its efficacy was so great that the doctor was given handsome reward by the Government. The treatment re- lieved Mir. Smith immediately and he was sent to his home. From last accounts he was doing we'll. Dr. Gaston is of the opinion that Smith would have died but for the timely antidote administered.
