and addition from tho members OF this very
exclusive circle.
That this episode has become national
item alone excuses us for referring to ii, but
Is the fairest examples OF what Is going on
in every town or city wherein social circles
make any pretensions 70 ohist inc ldie ana
fippnnt tongue OF cynic or scoifcr Is too
often the medium for originating these rip
pies In social life.
There have been numerous victims to idle
report In this city; they may yet be uncon-
scious OF the role they have played, but
those who have aided in spreading and re-
pcaing the tales afloat, cannot conscien-
tioiisly look them In the face.
too recent episode Is fresh In the minds
OF many who censurcd noble woman for
acts Of lndiscretion, for which she was no
more responsible than for the malady with
which she was afflicted. The Portals In our
midst should be multiplied, that each might
cry 10 the other "thc quality Of mercy Is not
strained"
The warm and heating days Of summer,
producing languor and ennui, are just the
days in which 10 read French novels and
distribute gossip Now and then you can
find n party who Is willing 10 learn some
thing outside OF her immediate surround
ings.
Since some important newspaper item was
called 20 a young lndy's attention, she do
clarcd her intention Of reading the newspa-
pers in future, a thing she had never done
before. How many similar cases are there
on record? A very inquisitvc party OF young
ladies recently visited the composing, stereo-
typing and editorial rooms OF THE ArrEAL
They had only read the paper, hut were just
as eager TO learn how paper is made.
The utmost sympathy was expressed for the
compositor when they learned that every let
ter OF a word was distinct piece Of metal
and that every column represented thou
sands OF these little ems. The boiling metal
was Stunned, and the perspiring foreman
had full share Of the young ladies COM
miscration. But whether the type setting
followed the moulding, or whether the stereo-
type itself was the sheet read by the sub
scribcr, were not fully decided points when
they left the building.

The newspaper is in a very impor'
tant sense, public institution, doing
great deal for each indididual and
for the community as whole, for
which it receives neither reward,
thanks, nor even acknowledgement.
In view of this it is certainly as lit
tie as any man can do to give his
patronage to the local publisher, who
is at the same time nearly always a
Job printer. Yet it seems to lie a
growing custom with business men
to send their work abroad. This is
probably largely owing to the prin-
ciple in human nature which ever
gives enchantment to distance The
men who condemn their fellow citi-
zenS and neighbors for going abroad
to buy their dry goods and groceries
because they like foreign article or
think they can get it a little cheaper,
seem entirely oblivious to the fact
that they are committing the same
offense when ordering their CONNER
cial printing from some distant city.

The worlds fair-women.
Foot rule--Avoid tight shoes.
The rock of ages--The cradle.
Important, if true-Your wife.
TO sleep well, a man must work
hard.
The value of a thought cannot be
told.
The steps of progress are human
needs
Vows made in storms are forgot
ten in calms.
A generous soul is sunshine to the
mind.
TO live in the hearts we leave be~
hind is not to die.
There is something sublime in calm
endurance.
The best capital to begin life with
a capital wife.
Injuries should be written in dust;
kind acts in marble.
Love at first sight often leads to
marriage with the eye, shut.
If you let a man alone he may let
you alone for long time.
The road of life has too many side
tracks for many travellers.
Fame comes only when deserved,
then it is as inevitable as destiny.
The man who snores 50 loud that
he awoke himself was not police
man.
The real man is one who always
finds excuses for others, but never
excuses himself.
Great occasions for serving God
present themselves seldom, but little
ones frequently.
/ Intellect has been called the star
light of the brain. Religion is the
starlight of the soul.
'Tis easier to do something that
some one else is doing, than to do
what you are doing yourself.
Speaking of drinking, it may be
observed that the man that can take
it or let it alone, generally takes it.

The east buys our products at its
own price and sell It's products to us
at tariff protective rates. Thus ma
king prices on both ends of the trade,
with congressional assistance, has
made the east immensely rich at the
expense and to the impoverishment
of the south and west. The wolf
never forsakes the sheep until he has
devoured it, neither will the protec
tionlst let go his GRIP until he has
drawn his last drop Of blood from a
ruined people. Protection for pro-
tection's sake is the most iniquitous
system of spoiIation that was ever in

THE WINTER SCHOOLS

Which haye been taught in this
county have about all closed, writes a
teacher from Kings Mill. The question
naturally arises. What benefits have been
derived from these schools ? l. for one,
believe that the teaching done in this
county during the past winter has been
more thorough and practical than ever
before. Many of the teachers have now
engaged In other work torpreyent Gnan-
cial embarrassment and to maintain a live
lihood until time to begin summer schools.
While engaged in these occupations. let
US not neglect the very important subject
of teaching, but continue to read good ed
ucstional literature, so that our minds
may be stored with the knowledge neceS.
ssry for us to impart the proper instruc.
ton to those who in the future may be
committed to our care. would say to
the boys and girls who have bad the op-
portunity of attending short term of
school during the past winter. that you
made rapid progress in your studies, and
now as school Is out, don't neglect your
books. Resolve that you will study them
on rainy days, and at every other time
you cannot work, so that when you again
start to school you will have not only re-
tanned what you learned at the last school
but will have greatly advanced in all
your studies.

1t is a common complaint that the
farm life is not appreciated by our
people. We long for the more Gle
CANT pursuits, or the ways and
fashions Of the town. But the
farmer has the most safe and natur-
al occupation, and ought to find life
sweeter, if less highly seasoned, than
any other. He alone, strictly speak
ING, has home. How can a man
take root and thrive without land?
He writes his history upon his fields.
How many ties, how many resources
lie has ! His friendship with his cat
tie, his teams, bis dog, his trees, the
satisfaction in his growing crops, III
his improved fields, his intimacy
with nature, with bird and beast,
and with the quickening cremental
forces; his corporation with the
clouds, and sun, seasons, heat, wind,
rain, frost. Nothing will take the
various social diStcmpers which the
civ and artificial life breed ont of q
man like farming, like direct and Iov>
ING contact with the soil. 1t draws
out the poison. 1t humbles him;
teaches him patience and reverence
and restores the proper tone to the
system. Cling to the farm; make
much OF it; bestow your heart and
brain upon it, SO that it will sayor of
you and radicate your virtues after
your days work is done.-Scrbner's

An exchange says that the Louis

that this gambling concern holds the

Never utter word of slang.
Never shut the door with bang.
Never say once that you don't care"
Never eXaQgerate, never swear.
Never loose your temper much;
Ntver a glass of liquor touch.
Never wlckedly play the spy;
Never, q never, tell a lie!
Never your pareIts disobey,
Never neglect at night to pray.

Through all the day,
And yOu will be happy
At work or play.
