Why is my wife SO precious in my sight?
Is it because her eyes are always bright,
And grace and molcsty are in her air
Neither, believe me, though she's very fair,
She SAYS, anl SAYS ii with an earnest diction:
This growing old find, Is ali fiction
Since fortune sent me Favoric Prescription

BREAK IT Up.-Can not the train men ar
rest and take before an officer some'ohere those
boys who persist in jumping on the steps of
the passenger coaches just before the tram
starts and riding a short distance? If they
are SO empowered. We should like to ask the
chief officers Of the company to so instruct
them There are no great number Of them,
but they constitute an intolcrahlc nuisance
that should be abatcd. We have seen them
hanging on, with Il hand grasping the brace
on either side, facing inwards, two or three
of,hcm and a passenger making desperate
effort to get by them. Mr.. llcsson has done
all that he can do: has cautioned them in our
presence; has informed their parents, but the
evil still exists If one oflhcm should be in
| nrcd, as ike as not the parents would think
about asking the company for damages.
Let the company protect itself in advance
by arresting several of them and that will
break it up. We Sc it nowhere else and
are heartily tired Of seeing and hearing of it
here.
The Emmitsburg Chronicle copies an arti-
Gle from the Westminster Sentinel giving the
names of certain prominent men in Carroll
county who are interesting themselves to
have the resources of that county exhibited
at the coming State Exposition and asks
"Why don't we hear from Frederick county
in this connection The question is very
proper one and we think we can throw some
light upon the SUBJECT
In the first place, not u single Frederick
City newspaper responded to Hon. Frank
| Browns courteous invitation and some OF
them have amused themselves and Others by
making fun, Of II KIND, ont of il: again, the
gentlemen lamcl by those present at that
meeting as Frederick County's commission
er, Mr.. George w. Cramcr has not seen fit
to do anything: further, but four out of the
eleven newspapers in the county have at any
time shown the least favor to the coming Elk
position hence no such thing as an organi-
zcd endcayorto haye the County represented
is thus far possible A contemplate selfish
ness a touch Of politics and an inability to
grasp the idea Of enterprise will account for
the absence of interest in Baltimore City's
great exposition III September.
For our part, we have cnlravorcd TO do
our full duty and have the qualification of
knowing that through US, Frederick county
will not he wholly without representation at
the coming exposition. Others can, and we
believe have done as much: let those who
have no disposition to bring their county in
prominence, profit by it in their own way
