Where hope dies hell begins.
A truth can never be put in the grave and
kept there.
Look a difficulty squarely in the face, and
1t will run.
Self conceit always puffs us up so that
our eyes go shut.
The devil is afraid of the man who al
ways has sunshine in his heart.
Nothing pays a poorer interest on the in
vestment thar wearing a long face.
The most improbable thing we can UNI
dertake to do is to avenge ourselves.
One of two things is true. We either
give according to our means or according
to our meanness.-Ram's Horn.

A Beautiful Blond.

The beautiful Paula of Toulouse was q
blond of nm inimitable hue. The people
were SO enchanted by her ideal beauty
that they followed her in crowds. She
complained to the city magistrates, and
they in their wisdom decreed that she
should not be annoyed in this way; but,
as her beauty, being gift of Providence,
did not belong exclusively to herself. and
people had o right to behold it. she was
compelled to stand one hour every Sun
day afternoon OF her balcony in order
that the people might gaze on her.-New

The White City.

CHICAGO, ILL, OcT. 81, SO.
Dear old Rounda6oM:
have been enjoying the sights
Of the White City this week.
What a wonderfully beautiful
scene is presented to the eye, as
you near the Fair from the ele-
vated railroad, and then at night
it seems as though it is some fairy
land on which we gaze. To obtain
a better view from a changing
standpoint, as we left the ground
that night for the city, we took
one of the Lake Gamers. Around
us was the beautiful white capped
waves, and, as we silently glided
from the shore, there was pre-
sented sight never to be forgot.
1t was not difficult to imagine that
we were looking upon the very
portals of the Heavenly City. A
friend remarked, that this is as
near paradise as we shall ever get
in this world, and, as the chime
bells rang out that much-loved
song, "Home. Sweet Home, " my
heart formed the wish that each
loved one at home was there to
enjoy all that we did. Though on
the lake miles from shore, l
feasted on a panorama Of beauty
| have never dreamed Of, and one
never to be forgot. The intramu
raj railroad around the grounds
gave US a birds eye view of the
White City. Of course l viewed
all l could, and it is useless to pen
down the sights to be seen. 1t
seems pity that it shall soon
be thing of the past.
At present the city is draped in
mourning for their Mayor, much
beloved and honored by his peo-
pie. His body to day lies in
state. entombed in flowers, and
thousands are come to gaze on
the dead face OF the man who was
friend to all. They tell me his
is the first body to lie in state
since Lincoln. who. like the Mayor,
was laid low by the hand of an
assassin.
Enchanting as the Windy City
is, my thoughts are OF loved ones
in my dear old Kentucky home,
so | will tomorrow turn my back
to all the attractions here. and
speed on to the dear old home
near the city among the hills.
