Pdrson PeterkiR: And so, my son,
some preacher has been telling you
that hell is a far off country where
you may be punished for your mean
ness at some far distant time, and
from which mercy may possibly de-
liver you? Don't you believeit! Hell
is all around you, everywhere and
every day, and just so sure as you
transgress just so sure will you feel
hell fire. Aud feel it soon, too. There
may be a hell long way off, and
there may be mercy that will save
you fIOm it. / do not know about
that. But do know that right here
in this life there is punishment for
every sin, according to its degree, and
there is no mercy to deliver you.
There is but one way to escape it and
that is-to be goOdl / should be glad.
my son, if you would be good for good
ness sake. But 1 don't want you to
forget, if DO higher motive appeals to
you, that you should be good because
it pays.
The Presidents message was sent
to Congress Tuesday,-to late for even
a summary in this weeks paper. 1t
is devoted mainly to review of the
commercial history of the past four
years, and the showing made is so
strong that ones surprise is renewed
that the country should have refused
to endorse an administration which
had brought about such wonderful re-
suits. 1t is a stalwart Republican
document and every Republican who
reads it-and all shOuld-will have
his faith strengthened and will be
proud that he voted for Benjamin
Harrison.
|Ghe New Year comes in on Sunday
this year, so it is not likely there will
be many calls paid except among in
innate friends. Next year, though,
we hope the good old custom will be
revived. There is too much good will
and pleasure in it to allow it to be laid
aside. 1t is q dull and drudging
enough world at best. Let US keep
alive the few holidays we have start
ed out with.
They had ten times as much snow
in central and western Kansas as we
had here. Out in Abilene the storm
was blizzard and the snow was two
feet deep. East and west railroads
were badly blOckaded. The Mo. Pac.
which was due here at $50 Wednes-
day evening, didn't get in until
Thursday morning about 7:30. The
Southern Kansas trains coming from
the south were also several hours
late.
Star: Speaking of Democracy, pure
and indebted, the lola REGISTER
makes the terrible charge that Colonel
"Billr Jones, chairman of the Demo-
cratic State central committee, en-
plOys a Republican stenOgrapher.
How can he abuse the straight outs"
for giving the Republicans aid and
comfort in the face of these undenied
charges?
For instance, Mrs. Chas. Rogers, of
Bay City, Mich, accidently spilled
scalding water over her little boy.
She promptly applied De Wits
Witch Hazel Salve, giving instant
relief. It's wonderfully good salve
for burns, bruises, sores and sure
cure for piles. Cowan & Ausherman.
For a sore throat there is nothing
better than a flannel bandage damp
ened with Chamberlain's Pain Balm.
1t will nearly always effect a cure in
one nights time. This remedy is also
a favorite for rheumatism and has
cured many very severe cases. 80
cent bottles for sale by Evans Bros.
Wednesday morning brought US
the first winter we have had this
winter, a cold north wind and an inch
or so of snow. Following the rain of
the day before, it was hard on the
roads and on stock that had no
shelter. But hasn't winter right to
come in winter time?
If the some body who found our old
umbrella will return it we will give
him a new one for it. 1t wasn't
worth much as an umbrella, but We
bought it IN London and carried il
good many thousand miles, and We
had kind of hoped to be able to keep
it.
The offer of both the REGISTER and
the New York Tribune one year for
81 80 when the regular price is $3.50
is phenomenal one and you should
not fail to avail yourself of it.
We still have left a few of Geo. F.
Grams school maps that we will give
to any school that has not had one.
