Though.lessness Of speech.

1t is not the pen that wcman should
fear so much and try to control ~ it IS
the tongue. Tho greatest lesson that
woman has yet to learn is to think before
she speaks. In comparison with the
thoughtless tongue the pen in wo'nan's 8
hand is as harmless as Il dove. All too
prevalent in &sasc days is the spirit of
cruel and thoughtless criticism among
women. Thoughtlecsness Of speech has
done more to injure woman than any
single clement in her life. It has laid her
open to the charge Of being unreliable
and ofttiines justly SO. 1t has kept from
her condolences that were hers by right.
It has stood in tho way of her progress.
It has placed her innumerable times in
false positions. 1t has judged her as be-
ing cold where she was in reality affec-
tionate; cruel where she was gentle. II
is the one inconsistency in woman's ma
ture that has baf1ied many one anxious
to believe in her.-Ladies' Home Jour

DAVIDSON, July l7th, 1898.

l notice by the paper that s. S.
Rogers of Elkland, is being pushed
to accept the Office of County Com
missioner and that he will take it if
given him without any effort on his
part. Since reading it I have talked
with a number ot our good Repub-
licans and learn that they think as
do-that il the office is not worth
an effort on his part it isn't worth
having and should be given
to one of his neighbors who come
out and ask the people for it. The
people down here are not much
acquainted with Mr.. Rogers. Those
who know him best say lie is a good
man as well as his two neighbors.
Should the contemplated court
house be built the architect will
oversee the work, hence an expert
enced carpenter among the board
of commissioners would not be a
necessity. Let Mr.. Rogers come
out and ask the people for it. That's
the right act when you want q
favor.

The New Tariff hill.

WASHINGTON, July l7.-The ques-
tion has not been definitely settled
as to whether the revision of the
tariff will be carried on through the
tentative method or by general
bill. The settlement of this ques-
tion will depend largely upon the
condition of the finances when the
bill comes up.
The main effect of the schedules
being prepared at the department
will be to cripple the industries Of
the country and TO turn certain lines
of trade into the hands of the
foreign manufacturers. In order to
accomplish this il has been found
necessary TO reimpose duty of a
cent a pound ON sugar and the re-
enactment OF the duty on tea and
coffee, which have been ON the free
list for twenty-one years.

Smith is making on the crippled

as an organization on the assaults
upon crippled veterans will be ex-
pressed in no unmeasured terms,
and the people of this country will
know where the veteran stand.
That's the sort OF talk we like to
hear. 1t is outrageous that old

cans alike-should he placed at the

State fairly overrun by the rebel
brigadiers and is controlled by the

the veterans in no unmeasured

Pennsylvania's Building.
Philadelphia Inquirer.

Every visitor to the Worlds Fair
notes with pride that the Pennsylva.
mia state building is the most popu-
lar on the grounds. This is not
alone because il contains the Liberty
bell, which every visitor must see,
because it is the most elegant,
luxurious comfortable of all the
state buildings. The structure is a
commodious one and is furnished
elegantly, and everything possible
is done for the comfort of visitors.
The writer made tour of all the
state buildings at the fair last week
and was surprised to see how very
much ahead of all others Pennsyl-
vania' is, it is the aim of the com.
missioners from Pennsylvania to
make every one welcome, and they
succeed to degree that one can
scarcely believe who has not wit
messed the general hospitality dis
pensed in the name of the Keystone
state.

If the directors of the Worlds
Fair decide to close the gates on
Sunday because the attendance on
that day is so small it will look very
much as if Providence was settling
the much-mooted question after all.
For four Sundays the fair has
been open to a crowd of people so
small that there has been no profit
in the enterprise. The great throng
of working people expected, some
how does not materialize, at least it
has not as yet. If therefore, from a
worldly, practical, business stand.
point of dollars and cents, it does
not appear best to open the fair on
Sundays it seems as if the subject OF
such vehement discussion had been
taken out of the arena by the hand
that shapes all events, in the opin-
ion of the orthodox.
OF course the attendance at the
fair on Sunday has been affected by
the fact that only partial display
was made for the benefit of those
who visited the grounds on that day.
Nearly half of the buildings were
closed und large proportion Of the
individual exhibits was veiled from
public view. Still it seems to have
been demonstrated that there is no
urgent public demand for Sunday
opening. 1t will be matter of
general satisfaction, if the dispute
be thus settled by actual test, that
the gates be closed on the first day
of the week.

The Comet Brings to Light a Tail

WASHINGTON, July 16.-At 1890
o'clock last night the comet which
is now the object of 80 much search
and speculation suddenly developed
an enormous tail, which to the un-
practiced eye was taken to be a dis
play of the aurora borealis. At that
hour Professor Frisby, of the Naval
Observatory, was studying the comet
through the nine-inch glass. He
noticed long streak of greenish-
white light shoot out from the comet
and extend itself almost to the
zenith.
LIKE THE AURORA BoREALIs.
At first, the nucleus of the comet
being at that moment hidden by q
fleecy cloud, it was thought the
aurora borealis had sent out an ad-
vance notice of brilliant engage
ment.
There was no Pickering, however,
and as the light came steadily from
where the comet had last been seen,
the Professor concluded that he was
seeing a comet in process of develop
ment.
The tail of the comet was thirty
degrees in length, distance about
sixty times as long as the moon is
wide, and extended from ten de-
grees above the horizon almost to
the zenith.
VISIBLE TO THE NAKED EYE.
1t is plainly visible to the naked
eye and was watched for some time
by the corps OF observers at the in
stitution.
Professor Frisby said "There
is no way to explain the sudden
freak of the comet. They are
erratic bodies at best, and the only
thing to say is that this one had
reached stage where it was ready
to throw out the long streak of
luminous gas which is called a tail
1t was not bushy tail, but was a
long ribbon of light about three
times as wide as the moon."
