Assuming 10 be tho Essence OF wisdom
Thcy Are orcn Unwiss-
A proverb has been defined as the
wisdom OF many and the wit Of one.
Into many proverbs are packed pithy
suggestions as to conduct and general
lied experience OF mankind. They are
sarcastic. hortative. minatory, mirth-
provoking. but they arc not wiser than
the people that make them. Hence.
many of them. some OF them most
widely current are arrant humbugs.
IL they were once true 10 experience.
under certain conditions. they are true
no longer. To say this Is fiat contra
diction of that well-known proverb.
Nobody Is wiser than everybody"
but even that Is one OF the humbugs.
II not infrequently happens that IA
single man Is wiser than his whole
generation. Such men become first
the leaders. then the martyrs, OF their
age. but are the saints and heroes OF
the ages that follow. AS a fragrant in
stance OF proverbial unwisdom and
humbug. take the distich that has been
dinned into the ears OF unnumbered
generations OF children:
Early TO bed, and early 10 rise,
Makes man healthy, wealthy and wise.
This Is terse and witty generalization
OF "a pastoral community, where TO get
on In the world II was necessary 70
work In the fields from "sun up" To
''sun down" II has no application
whatever 10 town life. The wealthy
and wise men OF towns are men who
work late and rise late; and as 10
health, Il Is notorious that no part Of our
population 50 suffers from all manner
OF diseases as farmers and their fam
lilies. Yet how many have been de-
prived OF their natural sleep by
superstition. bcgot OF this wretched
rhyme. that early rising Is conducive
70 health. II Is only In recent years
that people have had tho courage TO
take the sleep tnat nature demanded.
The man who did so generation ago
was called '1azyn-the most intoler-
able of all epithets. Franklin never
aimed "A proverb Mt him: Men need
five hours sleep. women six, children
and fools seven.n
Nowadays, the man who takes less
than eight Is fool. Take some Of tho
maxims intoxicating shrewd business
policy: IA penny saved is penny
earned has ruined many man who
could not persuade himself TO spend
money with judicious lavishness In en-
larging his business. The penny saved
was so large In his eyes that 1t hid the
dollar lost by his foolish economy.
"Out OF debt. out OF danger" and
Better go TO bed supperless than rise
in debt are precious pair that have
brought many TO the poor house. Debt
Is the only salvation OF many man.
Not debt recklessly incurred by ex-
travagant living beyond his means.
but debt incurred in the purchase OF
home or the establishing OF business.
Where would modern commercial af-
fairs be but for credit But credit
means debt; for II A trusts B, ID must
owe A. Debt makes many man
careful and saving. who would spend
all he gets II he had no pressing
obligations 20 meet. So he is forced.
as II were in spite OF himself, TO pro-
vide for sickness and old age.-New

There was q beautiful garden,
And there was q man within;
And there was perfect woman,
And there was no thought OF sin.
And there were flowers aud sunshine
Sparkling on hill and plain,
But how could they know the sunshine
Before they had seen the ralnl
There they were blessed and honord
Above all the future race;
hut what could they know OF honor
Before they had felt disgrace!
How could they know they were happy
Until they had drunk OF woeg
How could he know she was perfect

case, this time against the arms in the
ships hold, which were transferred to

TWO MEN SHOT
While Riding Along Los Angeles
Street.

While Riding Along Los Angeles
Street.
AS Messrs. A. ]. Warren and j. w.
Sage were riding in buggy along Los
Angeles street, and were passing a
wholesale grocery store, two shots were
suddenly discharged and each of the
men keeled over and found themselves
bleeding from wounds about in the same
part of the back of the head. They soon
gathered themselves together and a
crowd of men ran to their assistance.
They were taken to the Office of DR..
Orme, who examined their wounds, but
found them only superficial. At the
base of the skull charge of bird shot
penetrated Warren's scalp and there
were superficial wounds from stray shot
in the cheeks and other parts of the
head. Sage's injuries were almost iden-
tically similar. The doctor dressed the
wounds and the men went off greatly
satisfied that they had escaped so easily.
Upon returning to the place where the
shots were fired, they ascertained that
a countryman was loading his team
with packages and had a shotgun lying
in the bed of the wagon, In throwing
in one of the packages it struck the
hammer OF the gun and the load was
discharged just as Warren and Sage
were passing and in range. They both
refused to make complaint against the
granger, who was for time very seri-
ously alarmed. 1t was very careless
thing on his part to leave loaded gun
loose in his wagon bed while he was
throwing heavy packages on top Of it,
and it was more good luck than good
management on his part that the ensu-
ing accident was not serious one. Ii
the injured men had not been good ma
tured about it, they could have given
the careless countryman good deal OF
trouble.

GARNIER'S DEATH.
His Head Crushed in by a Wagon
Wheel.

Coroner Weldon went to the Squatter
ranch, near the Rancho La Brea, yester-
dav, TO hold an inquest upon the body
of Leon GARNER, prominent sheep
raiser, who was accidentally killed last
night by his runaway horse. The testi-
mony OF the only eye witness to the
accident, August Faure, elected the
fact that GARNER had just returned from
town, and was in the act of unharnes-
sing his TWO horses, when they took
fright and ran around the windmill,
throwing down GARNER, who was then
crushed by the wagon passing over his
head. He expired instantly. The
tragedy took place at 80 yesterday
night.
Leon GARNER was native of the
Hautes Alpes, France, and came here
many years ago. In partnership with
his brother, Camille, he had been sue
cessful for many years in the raising of
merino sheep, and was we'll off at the
time of his death. For several years he
and his brother had leased the Encino
ranch, where they raised some of the
finest wool in Southern California. Mr..
GARNER leaves young wife, but no
children. The verdict of the jury was
accidental death.

CANNOT BE
An Important Life Insurance
Decision By the Supreme
Court.

A decision of vast Importance to
the insurance policy holders
throughout the State of Missouri
has just been handed down by the
Supreme Court of the United
States. The opinion was rendered
in the case of Mrs. S. L. Wall
against the Equitable Life Assur-
ance company of New York State,
and sustains the well known non.
forfeiture statute of Missouri
against all life insurance policies
wherever issued.
The case was appealed to the
Supreme Court, where the argu-
ments were presented April % and
%. In affirming Judge Brewers
decision the Supreme Court passes
for the first time on the Missouri
non-forfeiture law. Maine, Massa-
chusetts, California and Missouri
are the only states having MONITOR
fixture provision. According to
this decision every Missouri policy
holder. can take, after the payment
of two or more premiums, net val
ue in cash, or a paid up policy for
the amount the cash would buy or
temporary insurance for the full
amount. The sweeping nature of
this decision is shown by the state
ment that according to the last re-
port of the superintendent of insur-
ance $48, 542, 942 in life insurance
policies were held in this State IN
1890.
