Harper Brothers have just published
a new book by w. D. Howells, entitled
Christmas Every Day, and other stories
told for children. The principal stories
are Christmas Every Day, Turkeys
Turning the Tables, The Pony Engine
aad the Pacific Express, The Pumpkin
Glory, and Butterfly futterby and Flut-
terby butterfly. The first named story
and from which the book receives its
title is story told by the father of a
little girl that wanted Christmas every
day in the year. The morals these
stories have in their text and through
out the entire effort, tends to RECON-
mend them as one Of the best books
written this season. Turkeys Turning
the Tables is fable with an appropriate
moral. The Pony Engine and Pacific
Express is Christmas vision with q
morsl which teaches children to obey

IT PAYS ONE MAN,

One frequently hears the remark
that farming does not pay. In
deed this feeling has become 80
common that many a. man
who .ore was happy and content
ed on his farm has concluded to
abandon it and seek other employ
ment. The DEMOCRAT has slime
and again entered protest against
such a course, and especially
against such q view OF that voca.
ton that sends out "the staff OF
life" to all.
The DEMOCRAT presents the dec
laratlon of Mr.. R. E. Hancock, one
of the best and most successful far
mers of this section, and COM
mends his declaration to the con>
sideration of other farmers. Here
is his declaration: 81 make more
by farming than l could make by
selling all my farm property for a
fair cash value end putting the
money on interest at 8 per cent?
This is the view of one who has
been a farmer all his life, who has
never done anything else but farm
and who has made considerable
money at 1t.
There is one secret about the whole
matter, and that is this. Mr.. Han
cock has attended strictly to his
business and much of his time ''llv>
ed in his field"
Now, THE DEMOCRAT hopes that
more of our farmers who are inclin-
ed to think that their business is the
hardest and least profitable in the
world, will take more hopeful
view Of it. What would or could
the country do without the
farmers? If all should stop farm.
ing they would not only suffer
themselves bat cause others to suf.
fer.
When all our farmers become
independent by making all they
need at home, then they will see
more profit in the business and less
chance of beggary and starvation

The August Century has hand
some new white and green cover

midsummer characteristics, but as
celebrating the centenary of the poet
Shelley by frontispiece portrait and
a striking essay by the poet George
E. Wocdberry, who is one OF the chief
SbaIley scholars OF America. Mr..
Woodberry gives very high estimate
of Shelley's work in the line OF modern
civilization, and says that "those to
whom social justice Is a watchword,
and the development of the individual
everywhere in liberty, intelligence, and
virtue is q cherished hope, must be
thankful that Shelley lived" In
"Open Letters" Mr.. John Malone
gives the interesting result of a patient
"Search for Shelley's American An
cestor."

and with stories, both serial and
short. The first article Is fresh &C.

The people OF Sioux City gave Capt.
Shields neat roast. The Journal
says: There are q good many tenn
perance people who have little faith
in those ltinerant, professional, big
tent Temperance lecturers" who are
here to-day and nobody knows where
tomorrow. Capt. Shields may be an
exception, but the Signs which he has
put forth since his advent here raise
q strong presumption against him.
Who is this man who processes such
tremendous concern for his fellow man
and who claims to be working for
temperance3 When did he ever make
single sacrifice in the interest of
temperance? On the contrary, there
are those who allege that he is work
ing selfshly in his own interest, just
as any other fakir, for the money he
can make out of it, and that he makes
out of it more than he could at any
other business"
