When town ceases to grow it
commences to die, and if the people
try to kill each other in their bust
ness and good names, the more rap
idly will utter ruin come to all.

ability to prosper, do not pull him
back through jealousy or weigh him
down with cold indifference.
Under the school laws of Penn
sylvania the authority of a teacher
in directing the conduct of a pupil
in his or her charge begins when the
child departs from its home for
school and only ends when it returns
again to that abode. Whose doubts,
let him examine the little white-cov-
cred book which contains the school
laws of the State.
On Thursday afternoon last, Mr..
William Mcpherson, of Weikert Sta
tion, Union county, went hunting
for rabbits. He set his gun down
on the ground, forgetting at the
time that it was loaded and also
cooked. In some way the trigger
was touched and the gun went off,
the shot entering Mr.. McPherson's
face below the right eye. He was
found and taken home but died the
following Friday night.-Centre Re

AUSTIN GIFT, Col.
A country editor who takes an un-
usual view of the approaching win
try weather, bewails the hazardous
condition of his wearing apparel in
the following delicate manner
Lives of great men oft remind us
honest toll don't stand a chance,
more we work we leave behind US
bigger patches in our pants. Oh
those pants once new and glossy,
now are patched with many hue
all because subscribers linger, will
not pay US what is due. Then let
them be up and doing, send your
mite tho be it small, or when snow
of winter strikes US we shall have no
pants at all.
Editors who receive compliment
tary tickets to county fairs and other
places are often looked upon as
deadheads, but the managers of the
Henry county, Ohio fair, who have
had some experience in such matters,
had the following printed upon the
complimentary tickets they issued /: |
"This ticket, probably, has been
paid for ten times over by the paper
to which it is issued. 1t will be hon
ored in the hands of any man, wo-
man or child, white, black, red or
yellow, who favors the association
by presenting it. 1t is good for en-
trance and grand stand, and the
bearer, if driving, will be entitled to
pass a team free. The association
recognizes the fact that its splendid
success is owing largely, if not Who'll
ly, to the notices so freely given by
the press, and while we cannot rem
der an equivalent in cash, we return
our grateful thanks"
