The GirCIing Habit.

A serious aspect of the giggling habit
is that it is so nearly incorrigible. Man
nerisns of all kinds strike their roots
deeply, but "hei he!' and cha! ha!' be-
come part and parcel of the offenders
against reason and taste. That which
makes the listener nervous to irritable
ity, fretting the aniable into desire to
smother the meaningless caclile in the
throat that gives it birth if he cannot es-
cape beyond hearing of it, is practiced
involuntarily by the habitual laughter.
Like the famous button on the learned
advocates coat with which he fumbled
necessarily while pleading, tho giggle
would, if suddenly taken away, deprive
its slave of the power of speech. To
command gravely temperate articula-
ton would be to strike dumb.
The origin of the obnoxious trick is Of
course in youth and inexperience, and
almost always in native difidence or
temporary embarrassment. When the
girl has no fitting words at call, she gig
giles. When the lad is oppressed by a
weight of bashfulness and would swag-
ger it off, he outlaws In the tyro's
opinion a laugh outdoes charity as a
cloak for every defect and extricates
him from the most trying position. AZ
fectation is an active ally in the evil
work, and the ambition to be agreeable
brings up tho rear CHARACTERIZATION Har-

A bran new ghost with all the vigor
and activity of youth has taken up its
abode in Henry Theobalds house OF
Deep creek and has awakened the hyeH
est interest of the whole community.
Unlike the foxy old ghosts of the past,
this ones business hours are in broad

on the sides of the house, then the next
instant on the floor, cavorCs through the

doors to mysteriously fly open and
seems to be an adept in slight of hand

Voters of Sumner county will not
lose sight of the fact that under the
Populist administration in Kansas
they collect just sS,756.72 more taxes
from the railroads. in 1893 than they
did in 1892 and previous to that.
Judging by the apologies and wry
faces the Monitors making for it the
dose is rather large for it to swallow,
but we opine that the people gener-
ally will appreciate it. The Monitor
thinks the railroads could have
avoided payment of part of this sum
if they wanted to. Did anybody ever
before hear of a railroad company
paying out several Thousand dollars
that it was not obliged to pay? Not
much. In its defense Of its friends
and its unwillingDess to give honor to
the much deSpised Pepulist admin
iStratien, our neighbor makes itself
ridiculous.

Cooperation.

EDITOR VOICE: ByyOur permission
l desire to communicate briefly
through the columns of the VOICE,
with the friends Incorporation.
AS many Of your readers are aware,
cooperation in production and diStri-
button seems to be the goal toward
which the forces Of reform are tend
ing. Thousands, if not millions, of
the voters of the country are advO-
Gates of complete cooperation, and
the theory is rapidly and surely gain
ing adherentS.
There is a movement being cOnduc-
ted by the TtOentiethCentuTy Of New
York, and other able publications, for
taking the initial stepin the Cooper
tive Commonwealth; cooperative com
panies or communities are being form
ed which will devote themselves to
producing all the neeessarieS of life,
and will exchange these accessories at
cost of production. BY producing all
they need they can escape the Oppres-
sive power of the trusts and monopo-
lies, and eliminate themany other eX-
penses made necessarily the present
system in getting goods from the pro-
ducer to the consumer.
In these communities, no one will
be put to the necessity o. seeking en-
plOyment, as labor will be intelligent
ly superintendent and every one will
have constant and healthful work to
do. A higher and more just system
Of compensation will be adopted than
that which prevails under cOmpeti-
ton, land the weak as well asthe strong
will be insured a living for such work
as they are able to do. Poverty and
and the fear OfpOverty will be abOl-
iShed, and the cause of nine tenthS of
the vice and crime OF the present sys-
TEN will thus be removed.
The better system is coming. 1t
may not come in precisely the way
outlined in Bellamy's Looking Back
ward" but it will come in essentially
that way. Who will be among the
first to take stand with CO-Opera-
tion? The Twentieth Century is furn-
ishing blanks for enrolling the names
of persons who are willing to 60 into
the cooperative movement. | will
leave a number of these blanks at the
VOICE office, and all who are willing
to join cooperative company OF
community at or near this point are
requested to ell there ard fiji out
blanks. Respectfully,
G. L. CLAYTON.
