A Brilliant Lecture.

Admiral Foote post, G. A. R., turned out in force Saturday night to hear Comrade w. s. Wells, ex-commander of the Naval Veterans national organiza- tion, read a. paper on "A Trip to Jeru- salem," giving some "reminiscences of a visit MT. Wells made in the Holy Land. The paper was full of wit and humor and gave attention to minor de- tails, which professional lecturers are inclined to slight or pass over. MT. Wells was in the United States navy eight years and the paper began with the trip he took on board the coaster Kenosha, beginning January 20, 1867, to the Mediterranean Sea and the river Nile. It told of the voyage to North Africa and up through the Holy Land, and dwelt at some length on their visit to the Monks of Ramleh, who enter tained them for three days, refusing to listen to their earlier departure. When the Holy City was reached ten officers and twenty of the crew composed the party. They were shown every atten- tian and honor by the priests, and at the temple entered the Holy of Holies in company with the high priests fol- lowed by pilgrims of all degrees and sta- ton in life.
 While in this sacred place Comrade Wells was given a fragment of the wall of the Holy of Holies, which he exhibit ed to the comrades.
 Leaving Jerusalem, the party jour- neyed on mules, all kickers, to Joppa, and viewed the historic shores where the famous whale in his attack of in- dignation landed Jonah. The speaker expressed approval of the whales ac- tion always, provided that Jonah was as dirty and indigestible as Joppa's pres ent inhabitants. On these shores he obtained no relic of any description. It was the only place the party visited from which they took no relics
 Next Saturday night every member of the post is requested to be present, as interesting business will be brought up.

Take Life AS 1t Comes,

There is QUO sin which is everywhere,
and by everybody is underestimate aud
quito too much overlooked in valuations
of character. Ii is the sin of fretting. 1t
Is as common rs air, as speech-sO com
mon that unless it arises above its usual
monotone We do not even observe it,
Watch an ordinary coming together of
people, and wo SEQ how many minutes it
will be before somebody frets-that is,
makes more or less complaining state
mcnts of something or other, which most
probably every ono in the room or the
car or on the street corner know before
and which most probably nobody can help.
Why say anything about it?
1t is cold it is hot it is wet; it is dry;
somebody has broken an appointment, ill
cooked meal; stupidity or bad faith
somewhere has resulted in discomfort,
There ara plenty of things to fret about.
1t is simply astonishing how much annoy
anco ana discomfort may DO found in tho
course of every days living, even at tho
simplest, ii only one Keeps Il sharp eye ON
that side of things. Even Holy Writ says
we are born to trouble as the sparks fly
upward.
But even to tho sparks flying upward IN
tho blacklist smoke there is blue sky
above, ana tho less timo they waste on, the
road the sooner they will reach It. Fret
ting is all time wasted on tho road.
Not only does fretting worry us and
those around us, but remember that moth
ing brings the wrinkles moro quickly

Ex-Governor Flower on the Issue.

left my national politics behind me
for this campaign, having buried it in a
corner of my back yard up in Jefferson
county. tits business issue which is
presented for our consideration, and as
business man I'm going to meet it in
business way. 1t may be said that
am not regular in my democracy, but l
contend that when man follows the
dictates of his conscience at such a
crisis as this he is better than regular
am not in favor of this third ticket
idea. 1t is favored by men who are
gold monopolists. The silver mono
metallists want one, too. That won't
do, for ninety per cent of the business
men of this country are bimetallists on
the basis of an international agre ement.
A platform which exactly represents
their ideas has been promulgated at St.
Louis, and there is a candidate running
on it.
L think know the business men of
the country pretty wei and when such
vital interests affecting the prosperity
of the whole country and all the people
are threatened as is the case just now
l don't believe they will fire their am.
munition in the air. They will aim di.
rectly at the mark, and their votes will
count buls-eyes on that ST. Louis tar.
get which has been set up for them.
| believe that as this is not partisan
question, but one purely of patriotism
and the preservation of all the business
Interests of the country. ali business
men should do all in their power tc
spread the seed of liberal sound
money education.
From what l have seen since go'
back to New York, believe that if the
election were to be held now, seventy
five per cent of the democrats in up
country districts and five per cent O
the republicans would vote for Bryan
This percentage will be greatly reduced
when the non. partisan business mel
get to work. This business movemen
will take the politicians off their fee
when it gets started. Wen have thos
farmers educated so that they'd rattle
take dose of jalap than free coinag
for the ills they are complaining of.
