Food for Thoughs.

The Ventura Free Press truthfully
says; 1.-THE only men Of worth TO a
community or town are those who
forget their own selfish ends long
enough, and who are liberal also in
their ideas, to encourage every public
enterprise, to push all projects
calculated TO build up town and en-
hanoe its importance. The enterprise
and push OF town or community con-
stitute the foundation Of its permanent
success. A town may as well prepare
for its funeral when it becomes in
different to the enterprise in it's midst.
Men who come TO a town TO make it
their future home, who cannot look
far enough ahead to see that money
placed iudicially in public enterprise
will be increased hundred fold in the
appreciation of their property, are to
be pitied. They are a class who are
ready to take all they can OF some
ones building enterprise, but they are
not willing to do anything themselves.
To be liberal and enterprising the
man with moderate means can be Of
almost as much benefit as the man OF
wealth. The great secret is to take a
most encouraging view OF any situation
and stick TO it until the state Of affairs
which you advocate with your words
and encourage with your means
houIishes."

The Roy Murderer.

Jesse Pomeroy, the boy murderer,
who was sentenced to solitary confine-
ment for life in the Massachusetts
Penitentiary, has made another at
tempt to escape. Although he is con-
fined in cell. and no one is per-
mitted TO communicate with him, he
succeeds in getting tools with which to
saw iron bolts and bars. Pomeroy
from childhood evinced a disposition
to murder his playmates. AS he
grew older the trait developed into a
mania and it was not safe for a child
to venture near him when there was
opportunity for him to take its life and
conceal the crime. At the age OF IA
years he had killed five or children,
without creating a suspicion that he
was the murderer. His last victim
was little girl whom he coaxed into
the belfry OF a church. lie was caught
in the act of numbering her, then tried
and convicted. In consequence of his
youth, though it was shown that he
had killed several children, he was
sentenced to solitary confinement fol
life. No one is permitted to converse
with him he is not allowed to work
and only when he succeeds in getting
tools to saw bolts, does he have az
opportunity to do anything except tC
eat and sleep.

Does Nos Return Go Dust.

Many strange things have been told
concerning the secret OF the grave.
Within the past few months dis
coveries have been made in Missouri
and Iowa that people have been buried
alive, but the strangest discovery was
made in Colchester few days ago,
viz, that after having been buried
21 years, the body Of Miss Flora Hume
is in as perfect condition as the day
she died.
Twenty-one years ago the lady died
in st. Paul of pneumonia and the
body was brought to Colchester and
buried in the Argyle Cemetery. That
cemetery has long since fallen into
disuse, and recently it was laid out in
nicely improved grounds. The few
graves in il were removed, and among
the dead was the body of Miss Flora
Hume. 1t was inclosed in a metallic
case. This was covered with heavy
coat Of rust. When the cover was re-
moved there lay the body perfectly
intact. The features were readily re-
cognized by relatives, and the clothing
looked perfectly fresh. Even rib
bion of delicate tint about the neck
was as bright and fresh as when it had
been first put on.
The face was not in the least dis
colored, and the body was full and
round. In fact, the corpse looked as
though it might have been buried
only few hours. - Quincy (lil.l

Do cultivate the art of leaving
promptly; even if you can't do it in an
ar.sstic way, earn to DO 1t somehow.
Some people seem TO be anchored in
the parlor when they pay a call. To
the fight OF time and the near APP
proach oi her hostress' dinner hour
this sort OF caller pays no attention.
Frequently she says, ooh, | must
CO." gets up, sits down again and goes
on talking. Presently she again says
she must 90, gets up and continues to
talk. She gets into the hall at length
and talks there. Finally, the anxious
visitor, who hears the baby crying up
stairs, gets the door open for her guest,
who makes a supplementary call upon
the doorstep, exposing the other to
pneumonia. At last she descends the
steps and the hostess precipitately re-
treats and shuts the door, for fear she
will think OF something else to come
back and say.
The writer once heard OF q woman
who, considerably chagrined at the an
nouncement OF a visitor whom she
knew had these staying powers just as
she was preparing to keep an impor-
tant engagement, decided to go into
the parlor with her bonnet and ex-
plain her hurry. She even arranged
with her husband to come into the
room and remind " her at the end of
a quarter OF an hour.
The guest did not take a hint from
the bonnet beyond saying that she

oh, then | must go, OF course"
stood up and remained talking several
minutes more, walked TO the
door and stopped again. At last Mrs.
r., in desperation, suggested that
they should walk along together
as far as they could. The visitor
agreed, but even at the corner
where they parted she stood talking
long enough for Mrs. X. to lose her
train and her appointment.
Shy and nervous young people have
the hardest time leaving, and are more
to be pitied than blamed. Their suffer
ing is often great. They are impressed
with the idea that the how is of more
consequence than the what, aud they
keep trying and trying to lead the con-
versation up to what they think will
be graceful departure. They are
wishing themselves away a great deal
more desperately that any one else can.
They watch for pauses in the conver-
sation and clear their throats to intro
duce some variation upon Lemuel's
81 guess I'd better be going" but
they are never quick enough. Some
body else begins to speak, and they
resign themselves with sinking hearts
10 waiting another ten minutes.
Still it is not always the callers
fault that she does not 90. Some
times il is the hostess who is the
fluent person, who ends every sentence
with a rising infection, indicating that
it is only suspended, and that she is
going right on. In such case it may
appear to the callers as il it would be
rude to interrupt her, though she
may have heard the muffied tiptoeing
OF the rest OF the family past the parlor
door and the subdued clatter OF china
from somewhere, and have a painful
suspicion that dinner or tea is ready
and they don't want to ring the bell.
But there is one golden rule at least
that the caller may stick TO. When
you once get up to 90 never sit down
again. New York World.
