The Sin of FPettinx.

There is one sin, which it seems to me
is everywhere and by everybody under
estimated, and quite too much over.
looked in valuation of character. It
is the sin of fretting. It is common as
air, as speech, so common that unless
it rises above it's usual monotone, we do
not even observe it. Watch any or
binary coming together of people, and
see how many minutes it will take be-
fore somebody frets; that is, makes
more or less complaining statement of
something or other which probably
everyone in the room, or in the car, or
on the street, it may be, knew before,
and probably nobody can help. Why
say anything about it? It is cold, it IS
hot, it is wet, it is dry; somebody has
broken an appointment, ill-cooked a
meal; stupidity or bad faith somewhere
has resulted in discomfort There ara
plenty of things to fret about. It is SIM
ply astonishing how much annoyance
can be found in the course of every
days living, even of the simplest, if
one keeps a sharp eye out on that side
of things. Even Holy Writ says we are
prone to trouble as sparks fly up
ward" But even to the sparks flying up
ward, in the blacklist of smoke, there
is a blue sky above; and the less time
they waste on the road the sooner they
will reachit. Fretting is all time wasted
on the road.-Helen Hunt.

The rrsnsuissis.ippi Exposition Of 1893.
Lincoln, Neb., Jan. s2.-Gov. Silas A.
Holcomb, In his message to the Legis-
lature, January Z, spoke Of the Trans.
mississippi Exposition as follows;
During the summer and autumn Of
1893, Nebraska will BE- visited by thous-
ands and hundreds OF thousands Of citi-
zens Of ether states. The Transmits.
sissippi Exposition will be held from
June until November at Omaha aad
will undoubtedly attract people in great
numbers from every section OF the
country. Various national organiza-
tions are arranging to hold their annual
sessions at the Nebraska metropolis in
1898. 20 as to avail themselves Of an
opportunity Of visiting the exposition
while attending their meetings. I feel
safe In predicting that the transmits.
issippi Exposition at Omaha will be the
greatest exposition Of the products Of
OF the great west ever held.
This project had its origin more than
year ago at the Omaha session OF the
Transmississippi congress. Prominent
men Of that city promptly formed an
association, with capital stock OF
$1,000, 900, OF which more than 100000
has been subscribed The first assess
mcnt upon this stock has been paid and
the affairs Of the association ard In
good financial condition. The organizers
and promoters are men Of business
ability, integrity and good financial
standing; the organization is strong and
the capital adequate. Congress rec
ognized the Importance Of the exposi'
ton by ma appropriation Of s2OO,OOO,
which, 1t Is expected, will be increased
20 100000. Tie legislature OF our
sister state Of Iowa has made pre-.
liminary appropriation Of $4,000, and
the Iowa friends OF the enterprise pre-.
diet an additional appropriation OF $685.
GOO ut ,he next session. The legisla-
lures Of Utah and Louisiana have passed
resolution pledging the support OF their
states to the exposition, and liberal
appropriations are expected from all the
states and territories in the transmits.
issippi country.
The exposition will unquestionably
accomplish great good In bringing to-
gether the varied interests ri the greater
west, the agricultural aud mining states
between the Gulf and Puget Sound, and
serve to cement the already friendly re-
lations existing between the western
and southern people. II will do for the
Transmississippi States what the At
lanta exposition has done for the south,
but I'M larger degree. Naturally Me-
braska will profit largely by having
:his great exposition held on her soil.
But the Exposition will greatly benefit
every state that participates. Interested
visitors will learu Of the great oppor-
tunities our country Offers for invest
ment and immigration.
You will be called upon by the man
agement Of the Transmississippl assoc
iation to make An appropriation to aid
the enterprise and trust that the tinan-
cial assistance given by you will be
liberal and sufficient, so that our sister
states and territories west OF the Mis-
sisslppi may be thereby encouraged to
lend their substantial aid.

was ordered here two weeks ago to
relieve Surgeon WoOdsOn, who leaves

may be ordered back here after Jan.

stay of a year or more in New Or

who have been so fortunate as to meet
and know him. DR.. Woodruff ranks
high in the service, and the officers OF
Jackson Barracks consider themselves
fortunate in having him detailed
among them.
