Death is not a thing to be
fearful Of. tits not a painful
process. The only terror it
has is the cessation ofall that
we enjoy in life. Death itself
is a passive conditionand no
more to bedreaded than the
condition we ca mefrom when
life began. Before we we're
born we dill not suffer on ac-
count of not existing; and at
fer death the surroundings
will be the same.
OF course life liz pleasant
and We like to retain as long
Ia hold on it rs possible. Yet
when we lose, our grip on 1t
we merely lie down To an ex-
agerated sleep.
The man who sleeps and
does not dream isin a condi-
tion fully as unsatisfactory
as the man in the tomb. The
man who sleeps renews life.
i That's all the difference.
It is disagreeable to face
the inevitable and to- know
that you must leave your
wife and babies, your friends
land neighbors, but it isgrea-
ter loss to them than it is to-
you, for they realize the sor-
row of parting and they miss
: you, but you miss nothing ex
! cept the good timeyou might.
/ have had if you had continu-
, ed to live.
Therefore, when death star
es you in the face accept it
: gracefully, satisfied that you
? are the gamer over the man
/ who was never born at least,
and that yeu have had a pret
j, ty good grist of pleasure out
OF life even if it does not last
forever. !,
e However. it Is just as well
9 meanwhile to stick TO life
!. while it lasts, and to make it
!. as enjoyable as possible, for
:. you will have all the rest o'
!. eternity in which to be dead.

Wrong Complaints.

For more than two hun

top, bark, and part -of the

it with a root, thus hacked,
the air will drink the sap
He says Of taxes, that "all
their curses now live where
their prayers did," and "all
are in uproar, and danger
serves among them.
But the complaints o. the
centuries were wrong and ill
founded, and showed ingrati-
tude. The true way to ma
tional prosperity and bless
ling, as we have seen, is by
the smooth, lawn-like, flower

The New York Herald now
approves of the policy of the
Democratic party as under-
stood to have been outlined
by the leaders in Congress. 1t
says:
There will be no attempt
at Washington this winter
to pass a radical and sweep
ing tariff bill. Such is the
sensible course decided upon
by the conservative element
which will rule the great Dem
ocratic majority in Congress.
The defeat OF Mr.. Mills pre-
vents the Democrats from
making q serious mistake.
He and his friends would
have insisted upon the pas
sage Of a radical measure
(which would not only have
4 disturbed business but would
.lhave been absolute insanity
! from the standpoint Of party
politics.
Our Washington correspon<

A lady was quietly walkingl
along a city street not long
ago when a door flew opAn
and a boy shot out with a
wboop like a wild In1ian.
Once on the pavement, he
danced a double shuttle all a.
round the curb-stone, and
then reached the street in
great haste, foritwasevident
from the books underhisarm
that he was going to school.
She wac thinking what noisy
thoughtless creatures heal
thy boys are, when just afew
yards beforphershe saw some
thing yellow lying on the
stones. Coming nearer, she
fanciel it a pine shaving and
looked after the boy again.
She saw him stop short in a
crowd Of people at n crossing
and come back as fast as he
wen.., so that. just before she
reached the shaving he dived
and picked It up, not a sha,
wing atall but a long Shiny
banana skin. Flinging it in
tosa refuse barrel he only
waited long enough to say:
Somebody else night have
lslipped ON it,, and was off a.

1t was a little thing to do
but the one glance ofthe boys
clear, gray eyes made the la
dy's heart warm toward thu

itself has nearly four times

A Communication.

Editors of the Kennebee Journal:
There seems to be two sides to the tenn.
psrance question which At present is being
agitated in cur midst. The one side wants
protection to cur homes and young men,
and an earnest movement is on foot and
has come to stay, to protect the same. We
who have Witnessed the rsvsges which rum
has made among Intelligent men and
women, bringing them to 4 level with the
brute, feel that something must ard shall
be done to protect the home and family.
On the other side. it is claimed that diff
ferent liquors are necessity to save life
There is no doubt that such liquors have
been an important factor in many cases
but not in general practice. Now il it is
necessary to have liquors In some cases,
why don't the ply sicians who use such
keep q supply and dispense them to such
people as need. and thus be the means Of
Discriminating between those who do need
and would make q good use of such, from
those who would use it to create and satisfy
an unnatural appetite, lose their msnliness.
and reiucs themselves and their families
to poverty and misery. IL the law is such
they would be hresking it by 90 doing,
