1t is undeniable that there is some
confusion in the popular mind respect
ing truth-telling and lying, arising from
failure to understand the essential
elements of truth and falsehood. So
far as the individual alone is concerned
he may make false statement without
lying or he may make true statement
and yet lie in doing 50. The question
is one Of sincerity in the one and an
intent to deceive on the other. All the
ssophistry about lies and especially white
lies disappears when tested by the pur-
pose or intent of those uttering them.
When sincere man tells that which
he believes to be true he has not uttered
a lie, though the statement may be
false. On the other hand, the hypo-
critic who, keeping within the bounds of
truth, insinuates falsehoOd or by sup
pressing part Of the truth conveys
false impression and does so with the
intent to deceive, is an absolute liar,
more despicable even than those who
lie outright with no pretense of adhe-
sion to the truth. The distinction
should be clearly impressed on the
minds OF children lest they should mis-
take the form for the substance. Sin
cerity, honesty, frankness-these are
the elements Of truth-telling; deceit is
the essential element Of lying.-Ex.

Corea, like the world of the ancients,
has its ''seven wonders" Briefly
stated, they are as follows: First, a hot
mineral spring near Kin-Shantao, the
healing properties of which are believ-
ed by the people to be miraculous. No
matter what disease may affiict the pa
tient, dip in the water proves effica-
ciOus The second wonder is two springs
situated at considerable distance from
each other; in fact, they have the en-
tire breadth of the entire peninsula be-
tween them. They have two peculiar
ies--when one is full the other is it
empty; and, Notwithstanding the fact
that they are connected by subterra-
mean passage, one is bitter and the other
pure and sweet. The third wonder is a
cOld-wave-cave-a cavern from which a
wintry wind perpetually blows. The
force of the wind from the cave is such
that strong man cannot stand before
it. A forest that cannot be eradicated
is the fourth wonder. No matter what
injury is done to the roots OF the trees
which are large pines, they will sprout
up again directly, like the Phoenix from
her ashes. The fifth is the most won
derful of all. 1t is the famous floating
stone" 1t stands, or seems to stand,
in front of the palace erected in its
honor, and is an irregular cube of great
bulk. 1t appears to be resting on the
ground, free from supports on all sides;
but, strange to say, two men at the op-
posite ends of rope may pass it under
the stone without encountering any OBJ
stacle whatever. The sixth wonder il
the shot stone," which from remote
ages has lain glowing with heat on the
top Of a high hill. The seventh and
last wonder Is drop Of the sweat ol
Buddha. For thirty PAGES around the
temple In which 1t is enshrined not Q
blade OF grass will grow. There are nj
trees nor flowers inside the sacred
square. Even the animals decline tt
pr0fane . spot so holy.

A FINE SINGER.

Miss Banta of New York Receives
 Much Praise For Her Singing At
 Dwight Place Church Last Evea-
 ing.
 The praise service at Dwight place church last evening was attended by large as- semblsge of people who were treated to some very fine music.

BALDWIN vs. GARRITY.

The Hearing to Decide who 5s Town
 Agent Continued to Next Saturday.
 The Democrats File a Surprising
 Answer to the Complaint, Alleging
 Irregularities at Several Polling
 Places.
 The legal contest for the possession of the office of town agent, between Robert E. Baldwin, republican, and John Garrity, democrat, was commenced in the superior court Saturday before Judge CIV. Wheeler Counsel Pardee, acting as counsel for Csp- tain Garrity, filed an answer to the com plaint of the republicans, alleging that there were many irregularities at the polls on election day.
 Briefly the answer of the democrats ad- init the truth of the allegations contained in the first, second, third and seventh paragraphs of the complaint and deny the allegations contained in the other four paragraphs. It is also claimed that more than 300 ballots were cast for MT. Baldwin in envelopes bearing a distinguishing mark and that each of these ballots were | illegally counted; that in the Ninth voting district every envelope containing ballot was opened by some person not an official counter, and that all such ballots were illegally counted; that in the Seventh voting district Captain Gar | rity's vote should be increased by 19 ballots no. counted; that in the eleventh voting district there Is an error of four votes in favor of Mir. Garrity and again in the twelfth voting district another error of one vote in his favor, and that in the sev- enth voting district the republican booth tender in charge of envelopes marked by | consecutive numbers more than 100 envel- | opes, which envelopes so marked were de livsred to voters and by them deposited in ! the ballot box ,ar d said envelopes contained in large part tickets with the petitioner az | first selectman thereon, and all said marked envelopes for said R E. Baldwin were counted for the petitioner for first select man, so that your petitioner ayers that there were counted for said R. E Baldwin l fifty votes for selectmen, which were taken from said envelopes so marked ss aforesaid.
 The filing of the answer containing these allegations was 8 complete surprise tc Messrs. Benton and Bishop, counsel for the petitioner, and at the request of Attorney Benton, in order to allow him an opportu nity to prepare defense, Judge Wheeler continued the hearing until next Saturday. He said he wanted the plesdings in the case closed before that time, and directed the petitioners counsel to file their reply by Tuesday afternoon and the defendant't their second answer by Thursday after. noon. He also said that he should be lib eral in admitting amendments to the plead ings if he considered 1t in the interest ot truth and justice.
 Attorneys Benton and Bishop, counsel for the republicans, stated Saturday that they would file their answer to the plead | inss tomorrow.

The Wages of the Employes of sar-
 gent X Go. Again Cut.
 A reduction of 10 per cent. in the wsgss of tho employees of Sargent & Co.'s shop was made last Saturday evening. The mo- tice stated in addition that the concern had found this action necessary because of the business depression, but the factory would continue to run on the eight hour schedule. Those whose wages will be cut include the teamsters and yard men. The contractors who were put on the salary system a short time ago will be the most affected. They will not be able to realize one third as much from the production of goods as heretofore. Some of them Sat urday night when they heard of the notice decided to discharge part of the num- Der of men employed under them.
 There is no probability of . strike re- sulting from the reduction, and 1t Is be- lieved that all the employees will continue ct work under the reduction at eight hours work day.

"Penny wise and Pound foolish" are those who think it economy to use cheap rosin and soda soaps, or washing powders of any kind, instead of the good old Dobbins' Elec- tric Soap for sale by all gro- cers since 1869, and used dur ing all that time by millions of intelligent economical wo- men who KNOW its merits and therefore use it. All who use it praise it as the best, cheap est, and most economical soap made, but if you will try it, even just once, it will tell a much stronger tale of it's mer- its ITSELF.
