KEEP UP YoUR EMO.

"When was a boy in the numbering
region In Maine," said the old doctor,
''the fellow who would not hold up hi
end OF the log, but let the weight sag on
the others, was looked upon with con-
tempt by all the camp. Wherever | 60
now, think see logs carried; one end
held up by hearty hands, and the other
dropping out of lazy, selfish ONES.
"When see an old father toiling to
give his son the education that Is to help
him through life, and the boy yswning
over his books, trtcking hts teachers,
smoking cigarettes and swearing, fee
like calling out, For the cake of your
own soul, boy, grip your end Of the log,
and hold 1t up
Sometimes see man working hard
all day, and too tired to rest at night,
while his wife reads novels, embrolders,
and gossips with women as useless in the
world as themselves. Do they keep up
Their end of the logi
"Or, quite as often, It Is the wife who
stints and saves, until her life is quite
barren aud bare as dusty read at noon
day, while the husband spends his time
at saloons and pool-rooms.
"0r see one bright, courageous men,
Der of family, usually a woman, work
ing, Joking, hopeful, while the others
crawl along, groanlug, complaining, drop
ping every day and hour their burden OF
poverty, disease, toothache,o or bad weather
on her shoulders. She has all the log to
carry.
"Again, II is a human being for whom
God has done much In birth, rank, edu-
cation, friends, who for the love OF glass
of liquor or pack of cards, allows b wife
to drop in the slough St, Paul bids him
work out his own salvation, aud l feel
like telling him to hold up his own end Of
the log"
What does our reader think OF the doc
tors homely Lesson. What is his burden
in liiei Somebody shares 1t with him. nc
man bears his load alone. Does be carry
his part with hearty goodwill Or does
he drop 1t on weak aud willing shoulders

Cold weather rules are perhaps slightly
Inappropriate in view OF the sprlnYlike
weather, but, as about two months Of
he winter are yet to come, the following
advice by the Sanitsrian might be worth
while FASTING in ones hat: Never lean
with the bach upon anything that Is cold,
Never take warm drinks and then in
mediately 70 out into the cold Keep
the back, especially between the shoulder
blades, we'll covered; also, the chest well
protected. Never 60 TO bed with co d or
damp feet. Never omit regular bathing,
for unless the skin is In active condition
the cod will close the pores and favor
coLges ion and other diseases. After ex-
ercises OF any kind never ride in an open
carriage or near the window Of q car for
a moment; It is dangerous to health OF
even life. Merely warm the back by the
fire, and never continue keeping tie back
exposed to the heat alter 1t has become
com 'ortably warm. To do otherwise ia
ieoilI ating, When going from warm
atmosphere into cooler one keep the
mouth closed, so that the air may be
warmed iu It's passage through the noft
ere It reaches the lungs. Never stand
still In cold weather, especially alter hav
Ing taken slight degree Of exercise, ant
always avoid standing on ice or snow
or where the person is exposed to col,
| wind

TUESDAY. JANUARY Is. 1850.


The verdict of the coroner's jury In
the case of Ernest Gabriel, the Ger
man boy who was killed on the p,
w. & B. Railroad near Landslith last
Wednesday morning, should be taken
as a warning to engineers to be careful
how they run their trains, especially
within the city limits. According to
the testimony Of employees of the com
pany there is rule which says that
when passenger train is standing OF
station an approaching train shall
siop, but in this instance Il was shown
that the engineer did not even slack
up, and about the only thing that
saved him from q prosecution tor in
voluntary manslaughter was the fact
that the unfortunate boy attempted to
run ahead of the engine. We do not
believe that any engineer would pur'
posely kill person, but there is such
thing as carelessness, which some
times amounts 10 a criminal act.
The engineer Of the train which
killed this boy testified that he did moi
know Of the accident until after he
reached the West Yard, and there is nc
doubt but he told the truth. There is,
however, another side to this question
and that Is contributory negligence OF
the part OF the victim. No one viii
deny that If person attempts TO eros
railroad track in front OF an ap
preaching engine that he does SO a
his own risk, and it seems scarcely
fair TO hold the company or the engi
neer responsible under such circum
stances. The railroad company hav,
an undoubted right OF way, and whll
the employees should conform to III
rules of the company and the ordi
nan ces of the city, pedestrians shoul,
understand that If they get on iii
track, they do so at their own risk.

The Jacksonville, Fla, Times Union
tells the 70 lowing: There is young
lady in De Land who 10 collecting all the
moustarhes she can get and weaving the
hair thereof into a watch-guard, and, as
she is quite popular among the hoys, the
guard is growing. But the other day she
struck one of the boye for his moustache,
and the young man, who is quite fond oil
that ornament and also OF the young lady,
said; 'No, you can't have my moustache

This city. the same as almost, ii not
all others, is infested with bad boys,
some of whom are so young that those
whom they annoy are 10th to invoke
the law for their protection. Some of
these boys if spoken to will curse and
abuse those who reprove them, and if
it should happen to be lady will also
use language unfit to be heard. II
seems to US that in all such cases there
must be something radically wrong in
the home training, and that the pa
rents must also share part OF the
blame. If we had House OF Refuge
similar to that in Philadelphia, i
would be thousand times better iol
some OF these boys, and also the com
munity, il they were committed to it
but as we have not, the only way o
dealing with them Is to send them t,
New Castle Jail, or the Ferris Reform
School.

The next question for the Legisla-
ture is that of Constitutional Reform.
During the campaign it was stated
that the Republicans were In favor OF
holding Constitutional Convention
on the vote cast at the election held
for that purpose, and we feel certain
that this is the desire, not only of the
Republicans but OF majority of the
people OF this State. II is therefore
the duty OF the Republican members
10 take up this very important matter
ct as early date as possible, and thus
show that they are ready and anxiou:
TO fulfill their promises. Let 1t be
known that II We are not to have re
form in our Constitution it is the faul
OF the Democratic and not the Repub
llcan party.

the object OF which shall be to teach
children 10 be kind and merciful to all
animated nature. The object is a
good one, and it would be well if a
society of this kind were established in
every city and town in this country
Some children torture insects unthink-
ing, and as they grow older the habit
of causing suffering to animals and
birds becomes so fixed that it requires
but little proyocatiol TO cause them to
use these propensitles on human be
ings and they become murlerers. 1t
10 well to teach children that every,
thing in animated nature is capable o
suffering pain, and that It is wrong K

would take pains 10 impress this iac
upon the minds of their children, W,
believe there would be fewer murder
than at present.

The work Of the caucus at Dover
last night should be accepted as final
by every Republican in the State
Each of the candidates had a tair
chance, and as Mr.. Higgins was the
choice of the majority, he should, and
we believe will be, received as the
nominee of the party, to represent
Delaware In the United States Senate.
No more able or aggressive man could
have been selected, and so far as abili.
Iy Is concerned, Mr.. Higgins is the
peer OF any man in that body. He is
strong protectionist, a man OF ad-
vanced ideas. and his fealty to his
party has never been doubted. But
one man Of those named could be
chosen, and 1t is all folly to talk about
Iplits and isctioual fights because the
choice fell upon Mr.. Higgins.
No good Republican will do this
and those that do would be much bet
Ter out OF the party. AS far as loca
lion is concerned, we still maintain
that New Castle County has fully a
much right to furnish the Senator a
Kent. As Sussex could not agree upoI

an able man has been selected. al
