A Word With You.

Your home paper publishes the
obituaries of your relatives and
friends and their removals, marriages
all interesting local events fires, acct
dents, etc, etc, besides, placing be-
fore you the lists, court notes, real es-
tate transfers, legal notices, which are
of great Importance to its readers, and
in fact everything readable that
transpires in the county. All this and
more too, the home paper does, while
the city paper does not do any of these
things.
The home paper fills place which
cannot be otherwise supplied. Every
subscriber to the home newspaper is
virtually stakeholder in that pa
per. The fact that your name is on
the list and that you pay your sub
scription, entities you to the the priv
ilege of possessing a small corner
sometimes it is big one-in that
newspaper Our subscribers know
this and they usually take advant-
age of it. Yet the privilege is freely
given There is no one so generous
as the country editor He labors
almost continuously day and night,
to supply you with the news-perhaps
his time is often taken by chatting
with you about some of your favorite
hobbies-and if you have some spec
ial item which you wish published
his pencil is always ready to note it
down and his brains alert in an effort
to Elk it up"
Your home newspaper is the only
one you want. 1t stands by you and
you should stand by it and support
it. The next time you have some
fancy stock, which fact you wish
noted in the paper, or if you have a
wedding in your house or birth
day or surprise party, think of this;
or, perhaps, sad very sad indeed
you have lines or notice you would
like to see published on the death of
dear one-Why, yes the editor will
do it for you, but remember him dear
friends, remember him for this
Sometimes the paper may not seem
to you as interesting as you would
like, but that very paper interests
some one. Perhaps because it does
not interest you is for the fact that
it is too much filled with the very
kind of articles that you will proba-
bly, wish published at some other
time-the kind of articles that inter
est one community and no other.
These must be permitted sometimes.
These are full of interest to the COM
munity for which they are intended.
And the editor is willing to accommo-
date all, and endeavors to please all.

How Boys Can Make Money.

Russell Sage's advice: SPY (1)
getting a position; ~ keeping his
mouth shut; (3) being faithful; az
making his employer think that he
would be lost in fog without him /;
and (5) being polite. That is good
way for a young man to begin, after
he gets there. If he lives up to these
rules he will not want friend at

THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
A Tale ofiAmerican High Life-All Ma
tive Titles.

Il wonder if he will come muir
murs Maud, languidly, as she lies in
statuesque repose in her hammock,
while the soft June breeze plays with
her wavy chestnut hair and scatters
snow-white blossoms at her feet.
Through the branches of the swaying
vine, whose foliage darkens the cool
piazza, the golden sunlight shimmers
down and touches the perfect oval
face with tender, checkered caress.
There is the hum of many insects in
the air; at the foot of the lawn the
salt waves break in seething foam on
the -bound.shore; the branches
of the tall locust trees commune to-
gether in whispers and signs of ex-
quisite softness, while far overhead
is the splendid blue sky, dotted with
fieecy clouds of brilliant whiteness.
And yet Maud Mahoney lies in
her hammock with half-closed vol
ume in one hand, while the fingers of
the other toy with the silken ears of
the superb dog beside her, she looks
bored.
And why should one be bored when
one has youth and health and splen-
did dresses and fleet horses, and
when the June sun is shining bright
ly? Is it worth nothing then to be
the only daughter of Alderman Ma
honey, the Nealthiest summer resi-
dent of Stamwalk on the Sound?
Can one be bored with the knowledge
that doting father has pull" of
colossal dimensions at Albany?
But for all that Maud is bored
undeniably bored. She has been
trying to read all afternoon but her
book rests idly in her lap. She is
waiting for the :3S express, which
will thunder into the station, bearing
the dashing young Assemblyman
Billings, who comes ostensibly to
consult her father in relation to the
ash barrel inspectorship in the 18th
District, but in reality that he may
sit on the moonlit piazza and WOO
the daughter of the proud old poll
tieian, while the waves break on the
distant shore, and the tall locusts
whisper and murmur together, and
the stars shine down in loving APP
proval.
She has had many,suitors ere this.
She could have ned the eloquent
young Tax Commissioner McGloin,
the idol of the short haired democra-
ey of her fathers ward, and the hero
of many hard contested battle at
the polls. She is known scornfully
W nave lCiuStQ INC manu- Vi ulUl WHO

but is now known as the "Brazen-

vote of Blocker Street in the hollow
of his hand. Sewer Inspectors, Coun-
sellers, Clerks Of the Bureau of Ar
rearages, aye, even Aldermen and
Congressman have knelt before her
-knelt and pleaded in vain.
Perhaps she is thinking of these
triumphs now, for a smile lightens
her face for moment. Then the
whistle of the train is heard, and she
springs to her feet. radiant with de-

the two men becomes confidential.

fright"
There are but three gathered at
the tea table in the evening. the
Alderman and his daughter, and the
young Assemblyman; and as they
sit by shaded lamps, the talk between
the two men becomes confidential.
Political schemes are Matched, and
the most subtle mysteries of state
craft openly and almost carelessly
discussed.
II think they'll defeat US on that
bill to cut down all the trees in Cen
trail Park" says the Assemblyman;
"but it'll make them very unpopular
with the working classes for prevent
ing the poor man from getting a job
that'd last him the winter through"
ssBe the powers" rejoins the Alder
man, there's been a fearful kick
made in my war-r-rud for 'fraid the
bill won't pass. All the voters were
countin' on it: Sure we'll have to
do something 'twixt now'n' election
if we expect to hould the party to-
gether. -
81 can tell YOU" replied the other,
there's big opposition to that bill
up the River; and, for certain sure,
Alderman Mahoney, if some of them
members from the back counties
don't get their price, there'll be a
splitup in the party before Novem-
her, suppose its sorrow bit of
help we'll get from that scalawag at
Washington
The Alderman brings down his
clenched fist on the table with fear
full oath. He is famous for his curses.
They have made the rafters of old
Tammany Hall ring ere this while
frenzied throngs howled their APP
proval. He swore just such another
oath at Chicago in "a, when the
name of his party S nominee was made
known to him.
"Bad cess to himr' he Kisses be-
tween his clenched teeth; "I've been
worker in me war-r-rud this thirty
odd year. I've been to primaries
and served on committees, and done
me whole duty as Dimmycrat, and
yet, when it comes to gettin' recogni-
ton, there amt swallow tailed col
lege student to be found but whats got

Assemblyman, there'll be change one
of these days, and then we'll see a

these ominous words they rise from
the table, and adjourn to the piazza
The moon has risen now, and be-

starlit sky. Her silvery rays fall on
the old politician, who sits on the
piazza dreaming of the days when
he led his coharts-"Mahoney's

in his district And down by the
shore, where the white crested waves
come hurrying in from the broad
Sound, and dash against the cool,
