What Is ItS

In country paper, the other day,
there was horse offered for sale, the
owner of which described him as can
honest Sorse." Why notp An honest
man is one who means and tries to
render an equivalent for what he re-
ceives. Cannot a horse do the
same?
A horse receives from an homes
owner, food, shelter, protection and
care. He enjoys safer and longer
life than he would have been able to
achieve for himself in state of nature
on the western plains No buffalo
cores, no catamount springs upon him,
no cyclone blows him into an abyss.
He does not wallow in excessive
plenty in June, nor starve to a skele-
ton in February; and, as to the work
he does, he loves it. Deprive healthy
horse for three days of his accustomed
work, and he is half-wild with ecstasy
when he is put to it again.
An honest horse is one that renders
an equivalent for his oats, his Stable.
his safety and his grooming. That
equivalent is fair days work, done
with willing and intelligent obedience
to lawful commands.
The Latin word, honestas, from which
we derive our English word, "hon-
esty," did not mean honesty in the
the early ages of Rome. 1t meant
honor, reputation, credit, respecta-
billy. But, as it is the practice of
honesty which gives honor, Cicero At
length used the word honestas as SYM
onymous with UirtUs, which mean
manhood. An honest man is simply a
whole man! A dishonest man is one
who is weak and deficient.
The detective records show us that
the great majority of the defaulters,
who have stolen millions of dollars
during the last eight years, were mis-
erabiy weak and foolish men, led as
Tray by the low appetites or trivial
vanities. The wardens of our prisons
tell us, too, that the typical rogue is a
trifing, foolish person, often amiable
and even well-disposed, but lacking in
manly force, resolution and patience.
All confirm Cicero in his assumption
that honesty is another name for
Wilderness and suff1ciency.
The farmer, therefore, was justified
in selecting this word when he wished
to convey the idea that his horse
would answer the reason able expecta-
lions of a purchaser. He who would
remain honest must become manly and
resolute, keeping his wants few and
reasonable, his desire moderate and
under control. Nothing weakens
character SO surely or SO fast as indul.
gence in any kind of lawless pleasure.

Divorce in New Jersey.

Illinois is generally conceded the
banner in divorce matters, and the
banner is said to be kept at Chicago;
but, in fact. New Jersey has the pole
on any state in the Union in divorce
matters. The laws place divorce with
in the reach of all, rich and poor alike.
Even in the matter of the initial step
to divorce -marriage-there are not so
many unpleasant questions asked as to
age, height, color of ancestors hair
and previous condition of servitude.
One Justice in Union county asks no
questions and gives family Bible as a
premium.
Any married person who is dissatis-
fed for cause, and has not the requisite
bank account to stand a first-class di-
vorce suit, can go before a Justice OF
the peace and make affidavit that tn ey
are not possessed of 800 worth of
available property. The justice will
forward the affidavit to the Chancellor,
and that dignitary will order hearing
and push the case through without one
dollar expense to the party applying,
not even for counsel. In New Jersey.

DEsoLATIoM

Sweeping down that fertile valley,
Like demon fierce and wild,
Came the seething, roaring waters,
Sparing neither man nor child.
Now, where once fair lands and houses
Stood, doth desolation reign;
For the water knows no pity
Sweeping lives like chaffs of grain.
On the Conemaugh, so peaceful,
Shone the suns prosperity.
Little dreaming of the shadow
That so soon should DER her be,
Knowing not the fate awaiting,
And that by the close of day,
Death should fold her to his bosom
Sweep her onward as his prey.
Oh. the anguish and the sorrow
That doth stir the hearts of men
Who behold the wreck and bleakness,
Knowing what ut might have beenm
But no warning told the people,
Meier whisper, faint and low,
That the angry, surging waters
Soon DER Conemaugh should flow.
Homeless they were left to wander,
Who escaped the seething food,
Cut aloof from friendly shelter,
Offered then by all who could.
But THE aid, so kindly rendered,
And so greatly needed there,
Can not fill the vacant places
Death has made where all was fair.
Pennsylvania! Oh, fair valley
Conemaugh, with thee we weep;
Give to thee our sincere pity
For thy wound, inflicted deep.
But we know thy bitter anguish
Human power can never heal,
So to God we recommend thee,
Who shall all things yet reveal.

swIMMIN0-ScHooL INCIDENT.
A Big, Broad ShouIdered Girls
Proves to Be Man.

Proves TO De q IVA dns
A German keeps swimming-school
for ladies in the upper part of this
city, says the New York Sun, and en-
joys the patronage of some of the
most elegant as we'll as the loveliest
girls in New York. He teaches these
fair creatures to swim by suspending
them in belt at the end of u swing
ing pole, and making them count the
movements of the arms and limbs.
After this sort of treatment he sends
tn, m afoat with life-preserver, and
later on starts them off without any
support. After they can swim fairly
we'll he teaches them to dive from
board which projects over the bank.
Being quick-tempered man this Ger
man gets very angry at an especially
timid girl who refuses to obey him.
The professor was trying to teach
beautiful young lady to dive, but she
could not get up courage enough to
shoot forward when he gave the word,
and after long time OF trembling and
objection, the teacher began to lose his
temper. There the girl stood at the
end Of the board with her
pink arms raised above he,
head, her shapely feet pressed
together, and her little skirt bobbing
coquettishly. She made sweet pic
ture. but every time the teacher shout
ed ..Go" she would say in a frightened
voice: "Oh, can't" Finally the
Germ1n could not control himself, and
walking up behind the girl he pushed
her headlong into the tank. There
was cry. flash of feet, loud splash,
and a general churning of the tank
No sooner had this happened than
Dig Observation-Disclosures girl, who had
been staading near by, came bounding
toward the professor. She raised her
fist and struck him scientific clip or
the side of the head, sprawirGg off the
board into the water. When he han
recovered himself and got out of the
water he looked aghast at the girl who
had struck him.
''You hussyn he cried, ''what foi
you hat struck me?"
''For luck came the answer in good
masculine tones. 1--WE kept mighty
quiet in your school for two weeks,
but when you pushed that girl around
like bag of meal l had to declare
myself. I'm man."
This is the story exactly as it is
being told at the New York Athletic
club, and it is entertaining, whether
true or not.

Censuses in the United States and
England.


The question is SO often asked.
.sWhy cannot the United States
census be taken in one day, as is done
in England and many Cont mental
countriespn The reasons are obvions
on reflection. In the first place, Eng
land, which we will take for example,
is a compact nation, all the functions
of government being concentrated at
the national capital. The consta bull
airy is national, and the census is taken
through it. The skeleton of the body
of enumerators always exists. The
enlargement occurs through the APP
pointment OF temporary constables,
working with the permanent consta-
bulary force. This gives England
and like conditions exist in other
countries-a force always in existence,
or easily brought into existence, for
census purposes. Each constable is
supplied with a proper quantity OF
blanks for a very small district. These
he distributes one day and collects the
next. They are to be filled out
by the head of the household, and are
to contain the names and facts rela-
ting to each person living under the
roof at midnight The United States
Government has no force which can be
enlarged to proper extent for one
day census. This fact alone would
prevent our Government from follow
ing the methods adopted in Europe.
But there is another reason which
would entirely prevent the adoption
of the European method. The sched-
ule for the English and Continental
census is very small affair, compre-
hending but few inquiries relating to
the name, relation to head of family,
condition (whether single. married.
etc., sex, age at the last birthday.
the profession, occupation, place OF
birth, and whether deaf, dumb, or
blind. This constitutes the whole
English census. The United States
census comprehends, as we have seen,
a very great number of inquiries re-
lating to numerous topics. North

A Big Beech-Tree.

Morgan county boasts OF the largest
beech-tree in Georgia. 1t is situated
on w. J. Van Wrinkles place, four
miles below Madison, on the right side
of the Georgia railroad and is plainly
visible from the train, but attracts
little attention from travellers from the
fact that owing to the immense size
persons take it for granted that it is al
entire grove. So large, in fact, is the
tree that its dimensions sound almost
incredible. 1t is 81 feet in circumfer-
ence, and at IL o'clock in the day it
casts shadow la feet in diameter.

Prohibition of Cigarettes.

The law forbidding the selling of
cigarettes to small boys appears to be
very freely violated in New York and
Brooklyn. But the proprietors of
cigar shops are beginning to be afraid
of private detectives who are, it APP
pears, very numerous, and it is be-
lieved that in time the traffic will bc
checked. The result of the law has
been to fill each juvenile breast with a
wild passion for the possession Of a
package of cigarettes, and the boot
blacks intersperse the labors of their
Shines with puffs at the noxious
rolls.
