Uncle Samuel for an infringement Of

OF the Columbian postage stamps.
An excl ange says at revival meet
ing in neighboring town, the min
lister asked all those who we're in the
habit Of paying their debts to rise.
Nearly everybody stood up. He then
asked those who did not pay their
detts to stand up. One solitary indi-
vidual stood up, and exclaimed that
he did not pay because most of the
audience were in arrears on their
subscriptions. He was an editor.

GIRLS DO NOT KNOW.
They Sometimes Reject the Most Bril-
liant and hest OF SUitors.

They Sometimes RcjCct the Most Bril-
liant and hest OF Suitors.
Rejected lovers may find consolation
from the knowledge that some of the
clcverest and handsomest men have
been refused, and that they have never
thcless managed to live on and win
fame and fortune, says tho Brandon
Banner. Shakespeare is credited with
considerable knowledge of humanity
and its ways, and he describes Romeo,
the prince of lovers, as being rejected
by the fair Rosalind only Just before
Juliet fell in love with him.
"A certain John Scott once proposed
to 4 Miss Allgood. While smarting
from her disdain he happened to enter
village church during divine service
and there, for the first time, he saw the
pretty Miss Surtees. 81 He woocd her and,
as the father would have nothing to say
to him, he induced her to elope, and
this though three wealthy suitors were
already at her feet. John Scott lived
to be the earl of Eldon and lord high
chancellor and never regretted the day
Miss Allgood rejected him.
Byron was refused several times. He
proposed to Miss Millbanlle, q great
heiress, and was rejected, though the
lady expressed wish to correspond
with him. He then proposed to an
other lady and his suit was rejected,
too. Nothing daunted, he renewed his
proposal to Miss Millbanlle, and this
time received n vcly flattering acccp-
lance. They lived together, however,
very unhappily.
One of the most persistent suitors
who ever proposed and was rejected
was the eccentric Cruden, compiler of
the concordance to the Bible. Miss
Abncy, who had inherited largo for
tune. was the subject of his attentions.
For months and months he pestered her
with calls and letters. When she left
home he had papers printed, which he
distributed in various places of worship,
| asking the congregation to pray for her
safe return, and when she returned
home he issued others asking the wor.
| shippers to return thanks. Miss Abner
| never became Mrs. Cruden.

SLAMS WATER FESTIVAL.
A Great Time with tho Grnndces and Peas
nnts Alike.

Great Time with tho Grnndces and Peas
nnts Alike.
At full moon in October, and again at
full moon in November, the three days
show is held, and for some time pre-
viously the houses of grandces and peas
ants, the markets and bazars, show
signs of preparation for the coming
event. The humblest style in which
the ceremony can be performed is yet
pretty enough. The broad, strong leaf
of plantain is bent or folded into the
shape of a boat or ruff. In the middle
OF this simple structure tiny taper is
is fixed upright. The "katoug," or
raft, of which this is the simplest form,
is then kept ready in the house until
the suspicious moment-prcdictcd by
the family priest-has arrived, says the
Saturday Review.
Then Mt this moment, when the water
is silvered over by the beams of the
broad, rising moon, the taper is lighted
and the tiny raft is launched upon the
waves. Very slowly at first it makes
It's way along the edge of the cbbing
tide; then, waited gently by the still
evening air into the swifter current, it
drifts further and further away, until
only bright speck of light distin-
guishes it from the ripping surface all
around. When the night is fine, thou
sands of these little stars of light may
be seen twinkling on the bosom of the
Menam, all winding their silent way
toward the boundless sea, all bearing
silent messages to departed friends who
have already gone TO the great un-
known land.

Your Home Paper.

The following from an exchange is
gospel truth: "Your home paper tells
you when to go church, to county,
circuit and probate courts" says a
prominent divine, "and when to send
your children to school. It tells you
who is dead, who is married, who is
sick, who is born, and many other
things you would like to know. 1t
calls attention to public enterprises,
advocates the best of schools and of
the law and order in the town. 1t
records the marriage of your daugh-
ter, the sickness of your son and the
death Of your wife free Of charge. It
sets forth the advantages and attruc-
tions of your town and invites immi-
grafton and is first to welcome new
Corners Yet in spite Of these bene-
fits, some people say the homo paper
isn't half as good as the city paper
that has no interest in their business
or success. The home paper, like the
home church, ia too often neglected
by those who are benefited by it,"
