The fair is to be opened but aix months,
and after that the buildings, with few
exceptions. viii stand useless and, if
not taken down 1T once, pass into Tie
various phases Of degeneration through
the clements. The value Of The fair,
however. does not lie in the buildings
OF their contents; it lies in the lessons
learned By experts il the several classes
into which the articles exposed may be
divided. 1t is a huge object lesson to
the union, enabling each professional
man, each artisan, each farmer to See
how his work IS done in other ma

The Charleston Democrat says all
the Democratic lawyers in Cape Cir
ardeau county are applicants for
positions under C~leveland's Admins
tratiun. This is not true. There
may be Ii or two applicants for the
District Attorneyship. but not all of
our Democratic lawyers want Gov
ernment appointments. Some of our
lawyers make more money practicing
their profession than they could get
out of a Government position.

New York for Cleveland and elected
him President in 1884. Harrison
carries Ohio by 1914: Cleveland car

says that a revenue of $50, 0O0, 900 q

those who have pretty large incomes.

The Mirrors Story.
A FABLE,


| had lit my cigar, pulled my easy
chair to the fire, prepared to wrap my
self in thought and cigar smoke when,
by chance, l caught my reflection in the
large old Mirror that hung on the wall,
where it had hung for many years. 1t
had been placed there by my ancestors
over one hundred years ago. For some
moments l contemplated my features
in its frame, and, while thus engaged,
the Mirror seemed to have put on hu-
man form with powers of speech and a
reminiscent mood; assuming a low con-
fidential tone it related me some expert
ence it had had with people during a
long and eventful career.
Il have" it said, "been intending to
speak with you for some time, but
waited for chance to catch you in a
mood when thought it would profit
you to hear me. You must first know
that have been honest with humanity.
Honesty is something 1 pride myself
on. And L have been careful never to
take or receive anything that did not
return its exact counterpart to the Civ
er. So you can depend on what l tell
you to be the truth. l have never been
accused of but one very serious fault,
and that was, casting reflections on
people. But, strange as it may seem, [
have been able to please more by it than
[ have made angry. Perhaps one rea-
son OF this is, that most people who
came to consult me have come with the
understanding that 1 give my opinions
honestly and truthfully, no matter what
the conditions might be or how much
they might be disappointed at my YER
dict. And remember that more people
have come to me for my opinion than to
anyone of my age. l have been no re-
specter of persons when duty and hon
esty required or called for nv
opinion. 1t is also fact that never
met person face to face that did not
cast some reflection on. Yet have
been careful never to injure any ones
character by it, for I have always held
character as too sacred to be lightly
treated. l have been a close observer
and could give you some very valuable
hints on the art of reading character
from the face; but avoid all tempta-
tions to impart my knowledge to others
unless it be regarding themselves, when,
if they came to me honestly seeking my

natural course of events, number of
"wealthy" and fashionable" in lieu
of noble converts should have adorned
the mission of the distinguished apostle.
| heard of few or no conversions" and
l was led to consider the cause AS
nearly as l could determine this cause
lies in the fact that America recognized
Immediately the uncongenial tone and
bearing of the religious snOb. The in
terviewers early discovered in the apOs-
tie willingness to talk, with seemly
depreciation, of the fact that he had
been the means of converting the rich
and the noble; and when the apostle
called their attention to the fact that
he had also converted at least one poor
man, this poor man, it was noticed,
was that interesting social phenOme-
non, a noble bankrupt. Finally the re-
pOrters were called upon to chronicle
the public statement, by the modern
apostle, that his great predecessor as
converter, st. Paul, was the one man
among the Apostles who might be
called gentleman
1t was therefore, soon understood
that the genius of the romancer had
created a fascinating image which had
no counterpart in reality; and as snob-
berry in religion is not considered
beautiful or desirable in this country
the ''apOstle to the genteel" evidently
made the same mistake. in coming to
America, that was made by a fellow
cOuntryman and fellow-apOstle of his
