Business is picking UP very rapid

Depew's Birthday Speech.

The transparent lesson TO us of
the closing hours of the nineteenth
century is that while the century
dies, we should live as long as we
can. We can only live by getting
out of life all there is in it.. What
is happiness, anyway? While I
do rot dlscredit the future world,
but on the contrary, believe in 1T,
according to the doctrines of the
church which I attend, yet we do
not personally know, either from
those who have come from the 9th
er world or from revelations re-
ceived from there, precisely what
IS the happiness Of the next world.
Our problem IS not 30 much to
long for that as to find our happi-
ness here. Where is it2 1t is IN
a healthy mind, a healthy soul and
a healthy body, aud even if our
body is not healthy you can keep
the other two in fair condition.
The secrets of happiness and
longevity, in my judgment, arc
first, cherish and cultivate cheer.
ful, hopeful and buoyant spirits.
If you haven't them, create them.
Enjoy things as they arc. The
raggedest person / ever saw was a
Turkish peasant standing in the
field, clothed in bits of old carpet.
But the combination of color made
him a thing Of beauty, if not a Joy
forever. (Laughter.) Let us new
or lose our faith in human nature,
no matter how often We are de-
ceived. Do not let the deceptions

What You Must Never Do.

WIldS you must N6V6T UO.
Never be ashamed To work-even
If you have to work for some other
fellow.
Never talk too much-a stiff lower
jaw is as useful as stiff upper lip.
Never judge a woman's cooking
by the cake she sends To church So
cial.
Never buy thermometer in the
summer time, they are always lower
in the winter.
Never threaten to kiss n pretty
girl-always beg her pardon after
wards.
Never make two bites at cherry
you might cut worm in two.
Never allow yourself to get the
big head-it will cost you too much
for hats.
Never strike man below the belt
unless you are aiming at his pock-
ct book.
Never turn new leaf-unless YOU
have something sensible To write on
its page.
Never hang your head even if you
are guilty-the sheriff will attend
the hanging.
Never marry for money-but al
ways for love, but if a girl has mon
ey though, try to love her.
Never marry girl who is not i'm
dustrious-you might want her to
support you sometime.
Never wear a tight corset-if you
must be squeezed let some man do it.
Never steal your neighbor's good
name-even if yours is worn out.
Never let your wife wear the
trousers-buy her bloomers.
Never judge man by the clothes
he wears-form your estimate from
the wearing apparel of his wife.
Never marry girl who thinks
she may learn to love you--a little
learning is dangerous thing.
Never marry large hearted man
he has capacity for loving too
many women at the same time.
Never carry cane unless you are
crippled-for if you are not physi'
cally you are mentally.
Never play cards with a woman
as they always have winning ways.
Never talk with windy fellow
as it will make you-pneumatically
tired.
Never tell hair-raising tale to
football player-always spring it
on baldheaded man.
Never kiss a girl in a crowd-she
prefers it done in private.
Never be clam-if you must be
anything of the kind, be turtle;
then you will have a little snap
about you.
Never forget to pity young man
who parts his hair in the middle
as he has to do it TO prevent his
mind from becoming unbalanced.
Never boast of your genealogy-
even if you succeed in tracing it
back TO Adam and Eve. You can't
find any record of their marriage.

Resolutions OF Respect.

The subject of this sketch, Bro.
Alfred Tharp, was born i'm Ohio,
where he remained until the late
war. He served through the war
and received wound which both
cred Elm the rest of his life and
perhaps hastened his death.
After the war he located Mt Buff
falo Shoals, w. Va, where he was
soon surrounded by a host of
friends, who today mourn their
loss. He was in his sIxty-frst
year and an active and energetic
man to within few days of his
death. But the all.wise Creator
of the universe, who holds the desf
tiny Of man, as it were, in his,
hands, has seen fit in His wisdoml
to call him from labor TO reward(
Therefore, be it resolved
First, That in the death of Bro.I
Alfred Tharp the Falls of IL Pole

worthy members.
Second, The wife aud children

of chieftain who asked the land OF a
neigh boris daughter. Upon its being re-
fused him he declared war; killed the
chief who had declined the honor of be-
coming his father-in-law, and married the
girl after all. Not satisfied with this much
he had the skull of his wite's father
mounted In gold as a drinking-cup, and
one day, while under the influence of
wine, ordered his spouse to appear before
the assembled guests at his house and
drink to his health out of the horrible
bowl. She did SO. but ever afterward was
her husbands secret but most deadly
enemy. She joined in a conspiracy which
bands assassination.

The men said. too, that strange objects
inte rfered with them and Interrupted
their labors. Men would not work in this
dreadful mine, and finally operations
on the Bunker Hill ceased, and for two
years the hoist remained idle. Again
work was resumed by another corporation,
but no sooner had the old tim bers been re-
moved and all made ready for extracting
ore than the mine was flooded by blast
opening a channel to an underground
lake, and twenty miners lost their lives in
the sudden torrent. For over twenty years
the fated mine lay undisturbed.
1t was at last acquired by Flood and
Mackay, and this year preparations were
made at vast expense to reopen the mine.
