GOOD NJ anuers.

It is in subtle ways in which social self
ishness crops out The old fashioned
division OF society was into superiors,
equal and interiors. One of the rarest
things in American society is genuine
courtesy toward superiors. Toadyism
there is plenty of, and it is a distinguish
ing habit which is unnecessary to condemn
here. The more common and less con-
spicuous mistake is withholding through
selhshness the Difference which is due
superiority. Let person of little more
culture, little better position, larger ex-
perience, be thrown among US and we too
often assume a cold dignity. The glor-

Face Answ 4reth TO Face.

The best reading produces the best

the best impressions upon mind and heart
and features. A beautiful mind will
make beautiful face. We all admire
beauty of face and form, and desire them
for ourselves. Here is an easy and Ger

The influence of good reading on charac-

THE HOUSEHOLD.
A Kind Word.
THE HOUSEWIFE

Do you know a heart that hungers
For a word of love and cheer?
There are many such about us;
1t may be that one is near
Look around you. If you find it,
Speak the word that's needed so.
And your own heart may be strengthened
By the help that you bestow.
1t may be that some one falters
On the brink of sin and wrong.
And word from you might save him
Help to make the tempted strong.
Look about you, o my brother!
What sin is yours and mine,
If we see that help is needed
And we give no friendly sign.
Never think kind words are wasted,
Bread on waters cast are they,
And 1t may be we shall find them
Coming back to US some day,
Coming back when soreIy needed,
In time of short distress:
So, my friend, let's give them freely;
Gift and giver God will bless.

ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING.
Narrow Escape From Death at
the Target Gallery.

Shortly after 2 o'clock Yesterday g
target gun was accidently discharged
in the shooting gallery at 230 West
Main street. and, as result, the pro.
prietor's son, a lad, perhaps fifteen
years old, came near losing his life.
Two gentlemen had just laid down
the gun they had been using, and
were waiting for the change due
them, when Will Woodward, Of Lin
colnville, stepped forward, picked up
the gun and pointed it at the target.
No sooner was this done, than the lad
in question advanced from the money
drawer to return the change. 1t was
at this juncture that the gun was dis.
charged and the boy being in range
was struck.
The bullet took effect in the upper
right part of the forehead blowing
backward underneath the scalp about
six inches where i. lodged.
Medical assistance was at once call
ed in and casual examination allay-
ed all fears as 20 the danger of the
wound, the skull not being effected in
the Least.
the wound being cared for the boy
remained at the gallery seemingly
unconcerned about his narrow es-
cape from certain death. Had his
head been elevated, beyond ques: lion
his skull would have been perforated

dressed his wounds. Rogers
has five or six cuts in his left
side, but the most dangerous cut is
the one between the sixth and seventh
ribs and penetrated the lungs. The
surgeon does not consider the wounds
necessarily fatal, but might prove so
if acute in inf smation or pneumonia
set in.
Rogers is a teamster and resides at
sos East Howard street and has a
wife and five children.
The knife that Biggs did the cut.
ting with is an old time one with q
brass handle and a blade about six

advantage OF the privileges accorded
them on leap year as will be seen in

who are little backward and for the
benefit of these we herewith publish
the law giving them authority to run
the matrimonial machine:
In book called "Courtship, Love
and Matrimony," published in 1860,
there is this clause concerning the
privileges of women in leap year {:
"Albeit it is now become part of the
common lave, ia regard to the social
relations of life, that as often as every
bissextile year doth return, the ladyes
have the sole privilege during the
time it continueth, OF making love
unto the men, which they doe, either

seemeth prefer; and, moreover. no
man will be entitled to the benefit of
clergy who dothe in any wise treat
