WEALTH CANNOT BUY THEM.
Mrs. Lynn Linton Enumerates Few Of
Lies Unpurchasables.

Mrs. Lynn Linton Enumerates Few Of
LIES Unpurchasables.
When Mrs. Lynn Linton forgets to be
original and radical, she is capable of
saying some fairly pleasant things. The
idea that many things of value cannot
be bought, and that those things which
can be bought are only of secondary i'm
portance in the world, is not strikingly
new. Two or three people had hit upon
it before Mrs. Linton. But what she
says about the unpurchasable things is
not the less interesting and timely be-
cause they have been said ever since the
deluge.
There is happiness, she tells us, that
gold may not buy. "When the woman
you love deceives you, and the portrait
gem clasped' worn over her heart shows
smother face than yours-when the hus-
band you were unconventional enough
TO love in the fearless old fashion lies
dead in your arms, and your whole fu-
ture is darkened and storm riven-when
your son has disgraced his name and
by his own lack Of honor has slandered
and cast doubt on his mothers do your
Ciaudes and Turner's, your Limoges en-
amels and old Venetian glass ease the
smart? Does your splendid collection Of
arst ed sait ti IN their perfect bindings
as well as to women's, when the bitter
ness is full and by its very fullness per-
force wells overt What do your fields
and farms, your balance at the bankers,
your carriages and horses do for you
when your favorite daughter runs off
with the groom, and her sister browns
herself in despair: MOI Happiness is
not to be bought"
Then there are love and honor and
youth that the gold of the Indies will
not purchase. And in these days when
creams and lotions, dietings and exercises
claim to put off the evil hour Of age
1t Is we'll to read what this very level
headed woman says about youth.
"You may buy fashion cosmetics" she
says, "artful enhancements, subtle dyes
that look almost as good as the real
thing, but you cannot buy youth nor
beauty. In spite Of all your care, and
though you give 10 shillings for the val
ue Of a penny, you cannot put back the
hands of the clock nor blunt the scythe
Of time.
"That enamel is cleverly done; that
dyed, frizzed hair is veritable work of
art; those painted cheeks simulate the
carnations Of youth more creditably
than in 80 of your competitors, but-the
cruel fact remains untouched--youth
cannot be purchased and old age cannot
be bought off. The poor old shriveled
skin gradually grows more and more
like parchment. The fading eyes lose
their brightness, and not belladonna it.
self can bring back that dark line around
the iris which age and weakened vital
ty replace by that all eloquent 'arcus
senilis.'"
None Of it is very new. tits not nearly
so striking as her views on the wild
woman but still 1t is good to recall Il
few of these interesting facts in these
days Of dancing grandmammas and eli
gible bachelors of 60 or so.-New York

branding q maverick.

In dell in the forest we espied some
mavericks" or unbranded stock. The
punchers are ever alert for beef with
out half it's ears gone and big HF
burned in its flank, and Immediately
they perceive one they tighten their
cincha, slip the rope from the pommel,
put their hats on the back of their heads
and eight out" A COW was soon caught,
after desperate riding over rocks and
fallen timber, thrown down and "hog
tied," which means all four feet togeth-
en-. A little fire is built, and one side of
a cincha ring is heated redhot, with
which rawhide artist paints HF in the
sizzling flesh, while the COW kicks and
bawls.
She is then unbound, and when she
gets back on her feet the vaqueros stand
sbout, serape In hand, after the bull
lighter fashion, and provoke her to
charge. She charges, while they avoid
her by agile springs and Haunting of
their rags. They laugh and cry, "Bravo
toror' until she, having overcome her in
dignation at their rudeness, sets forth
down the canyon with her tail in the air.

Punchers." by Frederic Remington, in

INC L.rgest oltIes Of An.lqui.y.

The greatest cities Of ancient times
were Babylon and Rome. The former
Is said to have had an area Of 100 to 200
square miles. Its houses were three or
four stories high, but palaces and gar
dens occupied much Of the vast area, 80
that the population was not what these
figures would seem to indicate. In fact,
ID is said by one historian that nine
tenths Of this area were taken up by gar
dens and orchards. The total popula-
ton of the city under Nebuchadnezzar
and his son Evil Merodach is estimated
at upward Of 100000. Rome reached
its greatest size during the fourth cen
tury of our era, and its population was
then about 2, 900, 000.-Western Mail.

Eyes, it's good thing for man to
refer to the dictionary, but this practice
can often be carried to excess" said a
we'll known magazine writer. why,
I've seen a man get SO much addicted to
this habit" he continued, "that he could
not write an ordinary letter without
turning to the dictionary three or four
times In order to ascertain some big
words that he could use. This, think,
is very great waste of time, as he does
not express his meaning a bit better than
II he had used some shorter and really
English words"

: cheaper article than could be
Bought at home. On receipt OF
the goods they were shown to one
of our local merchants, who was
asked to express his opinion as to
the quality and cheapness OF price
of same. These goods were COM
Hpared with some handled by the
merchants, AID it was found that
the same grade, or nearly SO, could
have been bought here at saving
of from rs to 40 per cent, fact
which goes to show that it not on
ly pays to buy from your home
people, but by doing SO you keep
the money circulating amongst
you, and like bread cast upon the
waters it will return to you.
Therefore, from every point of
view, it is the the part of wisdom
to consult your home merchants
before placing an order with out
side parties. .E 4.,

They occupied berth in sleep

PUT THEM TO WORK.

From pretty much every parish
comes the complaint of need sof
better roads, and yet the demands
from other quarters are so urgent
that the required money for the
betterment of our highways is not
to be had.
As unpleasant as the fact may
be, we must recognize that under
existing circumstances there seems
to be but little prospect for any
improvement in that regard; and
we will continue to be largely de-
pendent upon the weather, as to
whether many Of our roads will
be passable or not. ,
In this emergency it would seem
to be most desirable, that the au-
thorities should have the right to
work the prisoners confined under
sentence in either parish or town
Jail. To many, particularly of that
class who are most familiar with
the inside of our houses of deten-
ton, the mere fact of imprison-
ment carries with it no thought of
disgrace; and as the prisoners are
fed at the public expense con6ne-
ment approaches somewhat lux
ury for them-freedom from work
with free meals.
Now to support these prisoners
a good portion of the peoples tax
es is required, and therefore an
additionalreason, and a very strong
one too, is furnished in support of
the suggestion to. put these men to
work.
But beyond these two points to
be gained by such move, there
is still another, and perhaps the
most important of all; there would
result diminution of those petty
offenses, which are now so numer-
GUS and which take up so much
time of our court officials. The
fear of punishment is after all the
great controlling influence; and
the certain knowledge, that SO
many days actual work follow the
commission of any minor wrong,
would have a most salutary and
restraining effect.
By all means then, if the police
juries and the town authorities dc
not possess now the power to OK.
act such work, let it be given them
with as little delay as possible. II
will prove a benefit all around
