Inconsistent Man.

A man can take his life in his hand and &c
boldly into the trackless prairie to meet a
herd Of savage buffalo, or he can traverse the
horrors Of an African jungle without shud-

But he cannot enter a fancy wool shop to
match a special hue without breaking into a
violent peTsplration and finally rushing away
without fulh1ling his task.
a man can suffer the amputaton of limb
in heroic manner, but he cannot endure a
mustard plaster on his chest without shrek
ing aloud for mercy.
A man can stand the derivation of his
wealth with the calmness of stole, but he
cannot lose his collar stud on the bed room
floor without violent outbuTst OF temper.
a man can endure the pangs Of hunger on a
desert island with brave spirit, but he can
not eat his brides first pudding without a
smOthered ejaculation.
A man can smile grimly under the tortures
OF the rack but he cannot tread on tin tack
with his tare feet without bitter howl
A man can walk forty miles a day and ar
rive fresh and bright at the end of his Jour
ney, but he cannot nurse baby half an hour
without complaining that he Is utterly worn
out.
A man can calculate TO the uttermost far
thing the cost OF the Suez canal, but he can
not estimate the price of a Woman's bonnet
without egregious errors
A man can possess the physical strength Of
Samson, but he cannot help to take down
the pictures for the annual spring cleaning
without feeling completely exhausted with
his labors. ~ tgE
A man can beard the savage tiger In his
lair without culver of his muscles, but he
cannot bring an unexpected friend to dinner
on washing day without trembling in every
limb.
A man can suffer death at the stake with
the dignity of martyr, but he cannot chase
after his hat In public road without looking
ridiculous.
A man can wait many years In proud silence
for the public aUDrPCiatiOn of his work bI1f
at a domestic crisis hecannot get up and light
the fire every day for a week without feeling
that he is fit for immediate canonization

JULIUS CESAR

The Gazette splashes around like a
man overheard in an attempt to make
The CHRONICLE an advocate of Briggs
ism. Tertullian. it says, opposed Pluto
with materialisnl. This is an historical
fact that has escaped most historians.
Tertullian, according to the historical
record, was an ultra Christian to whom
religious speculation was hateful, and
what may be meant by opposing Pluto
is vague. 1T is strange, too," says the
Gazette, that history should have been
overlooked" and it adds, seven such
a barbarian as Julius Cesar says in his
Commentaries that Paul's preaching
brought civilization into barbaIous
Europe" Truly, this is stupendous
revelation, and deserves for its author
an honorary membership in every His
torical Society in the world. The school
boy has hitherto supposed that julius
Cesar was assassinated some half-ce
tury before the beginning of the
Christian era, and the Bible reader has
been led to believe that Pauls conversion
and preaching occurred about a half
century after the beginning of this era.
These opinions will now need revision.
The Gazette oracle has declared it.
Julius Caesar lived and wrote after Christ
and after Paul. Let school teachers,
Bible students, and even school children
take note. Frenchmen boast that every
idea that goes round the world originates
in France. Here, however, in quiet
little st. Clairsville is now originated
not theory but an historical fact that
ought to sweep round the earth like a
cyclone. lie the histories be rewritten,
and the text books changed.
In ancient times notable achieve
ment was honored with a name that
should evermore recall it. THE CHRoN-
lCLE therefore suggests that the name
of this deep historical student be called
Julius Caesar Milligan.

IT now seems pretty definitely assured
that Senator Carlisle will become Secre

and along with this, it is stated, that he
will accept the position with the under
standing that he is to have the support

in 1896. Whatever the Democratic
party may do, the people of this country
will hardly go to Kentucky and elect

Hadn't Thought of 1t In That Light.
A lady who has recently returned from
travelling in Europe tells of wise man
whom she met, who seems to have been
cousin of the famous wise men of
Gotham who put fence around bush
70 keep in the nightingale who was sing
ing there.
She was going northward to visit
North Cape and to see the midnight sun.
On the steamer she made the acquaint-
ance Of an elderly gentleman who said
that he was travelling simply for pleas
ure and the improvement of his mind
and who seemed to be a person of much
learning. She was especially struck with
his knowledge of astronomy, and they
talked on this subject good deal.
You must have given great deal of
attention to the study of the stars" she
said to him one day.
"Oh, yes" he answered. Il have been
interested in the subject for years, and
have made it one of my chief occupa.
tions as well as pleasures. 1t is really
because of my love for astronomy that
decided to take this trip"
''How was that?" she asked.
at occurred to me-" he said. that so
far north as we are going the constella-
tions must be seen to greater advantage
than they are farther south The air is
clearer. and the northern stars of course
can be seen much better"
But. my dear sir" she said, some
what astonished. Il do not see how you
expect to study the stars to advantage
by daylight. and what are going to
see is the sun at the time when it does
not set at ALL"
An-expression of astonishment and dis
may came over the face of the wise man

Bad Spring. Too

Hicks, the weather prophet, says of the
winter and coming spring: being firm
in our convictions, we do not hesitate to
record our belief that the winter will be
much more severe than last, and the
spring of 1898, especially the months of
March and April, viii prove exceptional
ly stormy, wet and cold. The Equinox
of Venus falls in the middle of April in
stead of the middle of May, as was the
case last spring. These facts indicate a
battle of cold ram and snow in the months
of March, April and the early part of
May, instead of lasting through May and
June as we had last wear
