TIE DYCYLE TEST OF LOVE.

Chicago Post.
1T must be a qualification to the
feminine world he said, to find that
there is at last a supreme test OF love.
There must be a great deal Of salts
faction in the knowledge that il is at
last pnssible to put a man on record
and find out whether he is really and
truly in love"
Il don't believe l quite follow you,'
returned his wife. There have been
all sorts OF tests Of love, but nonc
have proved infallible, so far as | can
learn"
Then you haven't given any atten-
ton tn the bicycle test" he asserted.
II don't see what test of love there
Is about Il bicycle"
'That's because you have never
tried to run around the block holding
Il pretty girl on one" he explained.
1--WE seen many Il young mar try it.,

and throws her arms around your

rcen a little. 1t Is good exercise, too,
to run with the wheel and steady it.
but there comes a time when there
seems to be a degree OF monotony
about it that is painful. In case
where there is no real love this comes
about the second trip around the
block. If man smiles at the end OF
that you may be sur that it is more
than a mere passing fancy, and if he
makes Il third trip it Is evidence OF
sincere affection at the least. If he
keeps his appointment to repeat the

THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER.
AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN THE PRO
GRESS OF SMALLER CITIES AND
TOWNS.

Newspaper Maker.
| The importance of supporting the
local newspaper Is not felt as kecnly
as it should be by the dwcllcrs in the
smaller cities and towns. The news
paper Is in reality rs important a
factor in local prosperity as the
tchurch. Its influence is brought to
bear for the benefit Of its locality in
many ways that the church docs not
compass.
The intelligence and relative posi-
ton of one town as compared with
others is to be accurately gauged By
the quality of its newspapers and the
amount OF confidence they inspire.
The newspapers OF Il town usually
present good evidence of the moral
standard which governs IL; for that
newspaper which gives its consti-
tnency what that constituency de-
mands is of the only kind which has
stability.
A town which can show a well-sup-
ported newspaper, means Il town
whose inhabitants are Quick-witted
people of keen, active interest in
what concerns them aud their neigh.
hors, while n in which Il newspaper
drags out YEARLY generally argues
itself the abode Of people with slug.
gish livers or torpid temperaments, to
whom the world presents little inter-
est beyond the limited ran &c Of expert
m Immediately bounded by their
own senses.
The excuse which is sometimes Of
fcrcd that the local paper is not OF
sufficient interest to warrant the cx-
pcnditure Of the small price of its sub
scription, should avail these short
sighted molcs nothing. Such people
should be told to patronizc the home
industry and foster it's growth into Il
more pr~ctcntious affair by their en-
enlargement. Newspaper men are not
slow to respond to encouragement: in
80 cases out of 100 their hearts are in
their work and they need but the sign
of a disposition towards it to call forth
their best efforts.
The newspapers status in a town
is an index to most OF those qualities
by which one judges of its d%esirabilitv
as a place Of residence and its com
mcrcial prosperity.
1t is the positive duty of every man
to help make his town known. increase
its prestige and add to its reputation
Of being a live, wide-awake place, by
subscribing to the local newspaper.
