Pockets.

ny F. W. LORD.
However women get along
Through all this world Of woe
With but one pocket in their clothes.
I'm sure / DO not know;
For when a man is well dressed up,
Live he in West or East.
The pockets in his suit OF clothes
Are fifteen, at the least.
There, five in coat, and five in vest
And five iu pantaoon.
And if FIVE more could he in boots
He'd count them quite boon.
just think Of all man must have
Forever near al hand.
or all those little knick-knacks which
His pocket space demand,
A. wsich and keys and pocket knife
And purse and sometimes cash
And books and pencils. comb and brush.
Which help him cut dash.
And matches, tooth picks, screws and nails
And letters from his girl,
Perhaps tobacco and pipe,
or someone. hair. a curl.
But that's not half the things we find;
And. though perhaps yos mock it,
wish that some one would invent
\ place for one more pocket.

"UNCLE BEN" REBUKEs HIS ADMIRERS
Gen. Butler, Gen. Alger, and about
twenty other gentlemen went to Marble
head on Sunday by special train and board
ing Gen. Buffers yacht America started off
on water trip. Gen. Butler, soon after
his arrival in town, was surrounded BY q
crowd of his admirers, who promptly COM
menced cheering him. The General, how
ever, was evidently not in a mood to be
cheered, and rather dampened the ardor of
the enthusiasts by responding to the ova-
ton in about the following language:
"What are you aboutf Shut up! Don't
you know what day it is?"

Religious Dogs,

The famous st. Bernard dogs are very
carefully trained. A traveller who visited
some of the monasteries of the monks Of
st. Bernard few years ago, found the
monks teaching their dogs from the EARL
est days of puppyhood. Not only is the
physical and mental training included in
the teaching, but spiritual culture is by no
means neglected. At meal time the dogs
sit In a row, each with attn dish before
him containing his repast. Grace is said
by one of the monks; the dogs sit motion
less with bowed head. Not one stirs until
the "Amen' is spoken. If frisky puppy
partakes of his meal before grace is over,
an older dog growls and gently tugs his

A travelling man tells an Incident that
occurred on one of Governor Burleigh's
fishing trips this summer The governor
was going through Bingham and a rumor
to thi. effect had reached the ears of the
country folks. OF course they We're eager
to see the governor, and one man especially
was anxious to see the chief executive.
He watched the teams that drove into the
village and finally noticed a couple %
strangers drive up from the Skowhegan
road and Que of these dismounted al a
store He could wait no longer; if Bur
leigh was coming he wanted to know it,.
Stepping up to the stranger he asked ;
Say sir; you didn't pass Governor Bur
leigh anywhere on the roadF" No, the man
hadn't CORY, | should like to see him
dreadful well" said the disappointed coun-
tryman. well, | am the governor" re-
piled the tall, dark stranger with a smile.
The Bingham man looked at MIN, turned
all colors possible and then turned and
walked away. He was evidently SATISFIED.

TARIFF PROTECTION.

Decidedly the most important state
ment that has been made before the
Ways and Means Committee during
the present series OF hearings was
that of Governor Warmoth. He OBJ
iected to the substitution of a boun-
ty for the protective tariff, not be-
cause it would not answer the same
purpose while it lasted, but because
the people would not stand it two
years. The bounty he admitted was
the same sort of aid to the manufac-
turer that the protective feature OF
tho tariff ID, but the people would
never stand it to see the money paid
over in gross material form by the
Treasury to the sugar producer. The
protective tariff, then, in the bene-
ticiaries. is q device for doing by
stealth what the people would not
submit TO for two years If it were
done openly and before their eyes,

Selhshness.

That we are all more or less selfish
il accounted for on the principle that
"SeIf preservation is the first law Of
Natures" but while this is true it is
not intended that we should be 30
thoroughly imbued with the principle
OF selfishness that we should be I'M
willing to "Do unto others as we
would have them do to u.s." There
ia no ono in the world who is indie
pendent Of the friendship, support
and assistance of his fellow men, and
the only way to secure true friends is
To show friendship to others. It is a
lsmentable fact that many persons
are so thoroughly wrapped up in sell
fishness that they seek every opportu-
nifty to get the best of every bargain,
even if by the sacrifice of the friend
ship OF q neighbor they can succeed
in adding afew dollars to their stock
Of worldly wealth.
"Man's inhumanity to man makes
countless thousands mourn" and
this prevailing inhumanity is the re-
suit Of selffshness. That person who
il actuated by the principles Of right
and Justice will, on all propositions of
q doubtful character, adopt the mot
70, "Pot yourself in his place." and
thus determine whether any pro-
posed line Of conduct is right. No
one should adopt any line of policy
in his dealings with others that he
would not consider right If the con-
ditions were reversed. If you do to
others what you would not be willing
shat they should do to you under
similar circumstances, be sure you are
wrong. Let honesty, integrity and
truth be yonr guide, and you will

pies party, except to break the Re-
publican party to pieces and help elect

such /, question from learned man
and Republican wire pniler of Ed

were not so tragic. 1t is as The good
editor of the Mercury said some time
since, THAT you can fool all of the peo-
pie some of the time and some of the
people all the time, but you cunt fool
all the people all the time -, That is
the rut the g. O. p. has fallen into, but
they will lind 10y the 4th of November
that Che people have quit fooling and
have been reading good wholesome
matter that the &. o. p. organs have
never published, for if they had the
people would have t'tubled and left
the &. o. p. long before they did.) Now
then n word To you wise and learned
men of Edwards county, you take the
Hazard Circulor and read awhile the
Congressional history of our country
and the vile legislation which has
cursed us for twenty-five or thirty
years You may begin to see why

scarce; why mortgages cover the land
and all upon it. OF gods, is it pos
sible that people are SO party blind, so
party foolish tat they would rather
see the country go to the dogs than
| give mp their old party affiliations?
| Are such men sane that will stick TO
the G. o. p. when their better iudg-
ment tells them that there is some
thing wrong and they can plainly see

yield just because they want to be
