It's a sad fact that there are So many
weekly papers in Delaware and else
where that accept advertising contracts
at any price. Send them your adver-
tisement and tell them what you will
give, and in nine cases out OF ten they
will accept. They think half rates
better than losing the contract. This
is bad way to do. If your space
is not worth SO much per inch TO
you. you are working ina way TO
lose. Make schedule OF rates and
stick 10 them Don't charge your
towrsman at an exorbitant rate and
give outsiders space for nothing and a
years subscription free. We know
If sc.cral newspapers that have been
running advertisements for outsiders
entiielv TOO cheap, and they ought to
stop il. We have no cheap space tor
any one.-Nezoark (Dek) LeGSer.

An exchange quotes a minister as
saying that no newspaper which took
truth for a standard would make pc
cuniary success. The press might re-
turn the compliment by remarking
that no minister who told the truth
about his congregation, alive or dead,
would occupy the pulpit more than
one Sunday aiterward. The press and
clergy so hand in hand: whitewash
brush, rosy spactacles, masnifying
little virtues are partners in saint ma
king.

The work of the newspapers in the
recent campaign is an influence that
must not be lost sight of. Truly the
campaign of education was waged to a
successful result and the newspapers
have occupied the position of earnest
school teachers. In giving the need
of praise due let us not forget the
newspapers of the land. Abuse is an
evidence of appreciation that they al
ways receive from those whose efforts
to injure and defraud the people they
are instrumental in frustrating. Words
of appreciation rom those who favor
their cause are always very sparingly
spoken while deeds practically showing
that appreciation are exceedingly ex-
ceptional. Is there any class of our
.. people who deserve a higher measure
of praise for the victory than does the
earnest, sincere editor who gave of his
time and thought, his influence and
opportunities without sim, towards
aiding the people in their efforts TO see
clearly the condition of the county?
Late telagrams received at the War
Department from General Mules show
that the Indians at Pine RidegAgency
are very much excited and that the
number of Indians going from Rose
bud Agency and to Pine Ridge Agency
is increasing. The Messiah craze is
extending 10 the Indians near the
Mountain border and between the
Nation and the Canadian border.
The ghost dances still continue.
Everybody needs and everybody
values kindness. There is no excep-
ton to this rule; but our duty OF being
kind appeals to ourselves alone; it
does not include other other people S
duty to be kind 10 us. Their duty in
this line is alone theirs. Hence our
thought of the value and the need OF
kindness should centre our privilege
and duty of being kind to others; how
ever Others may bear themselves TO-
ward US.

At the Churches.

Rev. Kaull preached Sunday
morning from the text, "And he
went down with them, and came to
Nazateth and was subject unto
them" Luke ii, 81: The subject
was obedience. This subject was
discussed in all relations of life.
Showing that obedience to the laws
of state and nati0n-the rules and
regulations of church and school, as
well as to parental authority were
right, that Christ not only endorsed
all these relations, but was willing.
ly subject to them himself. Even
though We might differ as to the
principle involved. yet while it was
the law, the command or the rule,
it was our duty to obey until the
same was changed. AS the Bible
says, GAIL law is from Cod" Be-
sides it established parental au-
thOrity.

He pressed her to his heart as he gave it,

He took his stand by the window, as far as
possible from the bed, and set the bow with a
trembling hand. The tones of the old cradle
song "Se"p, my child, sleep on sounded
low through the room.
Then the playing became more lively, and
he handled the bow more firmly. The simple,
soulful melody awoke soaring phantaSies.
The longer he played the more the artist
within him was aroused. All that had lain
in his heart through the long years, under
the cares of life as under an ash heap, came
up TO the light. The tones exulted; they wept
and lamented. A divine fire beamed from
his eyes; the glow of inspiration was upon
the cheeks of the man who had at last found
himself Ever more heaven inspired and
spiritual, they became a tone prayer to the
Lord of life and death. He stood a few mo-
mentS motonless, with bowed head, when he
ended, as if listening to the flying tones;
then, breathing fast laid aside the violin.
Softly he stepped again to the bedside.

then laid his gray head on her young breast,
but there was no sound of heart beat A
blessed, happy peace rested upon her features.
He knew then why she had felt so light and
happy.

still in the little room save the rafting of the
window sash and the ticking of the clock.

leaned his head upon the bed of his dead
child. He had played the finale of his life
