Strange as it may appear, it Is
nevertheless true, that the fellow
who won't take the paper, because by
Withholding his patronage he thinks
he can break it up, is the first man
to gobble the copy of some paying
subscriber. This looks little in
consistent, but it is a fact. This
kind of a man will swear he wouldn' I
touch the worthless sheet with a
pair of tongs, but he will set around
stores and hotels on the morning of
the issue and before the paper is
dry from the press pounce upon it
like duck upon June bug, and
soil it before the person who pays
for it has had a chance to read it.
There are few people OF this class
who read the REGISTER every week.
Now that winter is with us in all
its severity, it might be well to ask
ourselves, mentally, whether the
sense of cold is not equally as acute
in the lower order of the animal
kingdom as it is with us. We dc
not, neither can we deny the truth
of this, yet it is no uncommon thing
to see team of horses after having
been driven eight or ten miles, per-
haps, standing for hours, and even
a whole day, without shelter ofany
kind, not SO much even as blanket
thrown over them, exposed to the
elements. If no available shelter
is to be had for these noble animals,
their owners should at least see to
it that they are properly blauketed.
"We speak for those that can not
speak for themselves"

which passed over his breast, seri+
ously, if not fatally injuring him
Two physicians werc called to at.
tend him, who had him removed tc
his home, where he is in very
critical condition. We hope his in
juries are not so bad as reported
and that he will soon be fully re.
covered.
