In speech made by Pension Com
missioner Murphy, in answer to resolu-
tions commencing his administration
of the Pension Bureau, presented by
committee from Pennsylvania G. A.
r., Posts, Mr.. Murphy told for the
first time in public, the instructions
given him by President Cleveland when
he appointed him commissioner of Pen
sions. Whatever may be ones opinion
of many of his other policies, it is diff
cult to see how any man could have
outlined in few words more just and
patriotic pension policy than President
Cleveland did when he said to Commits
sioner Murphy: "Mr, Murphy, I
think you know my ideas of the Pen
sion Bureau and the Pension system.
They are just these: In claims coming
up for the action of the Bureau, where
you find the case of a worthy soldier
who served his country faithfully in
her hour of danger, you will be lenieni
with him and give him the benefit Of
reasonable doubt In settling the
claims of the widows and orphans, you
will act in the same manner, but waste
no sympathy on the unworthy"

The tramp is not the heart of society,
but he does most of the beating
Truth is stranger than fiction and
gets people into a heap more trouble.
There are some mighty big towards
who don't seem much afraid of the
devil.
Death treats all alike, but it seems to
display bad judgment in getting to
them.
The trouble with most people is that
they try to raise little crop of happi-
ness just for their own use.
The man at the foot of the ladder
looks up and says "luck, " and the man
on the top looks down and says "pluck, "
The reason why some people don't
get to heaven is because they try to run
a narrow gauge engine on wide
gauge track.
1t is said that bowlegged and pigeon
toed people are always curious and
venturesome. If this is true short skirts
will never become fashionable.
There is no need in man going to
tramping or begging to study human
nature; running a newspaper will show
up enough of that article to satisfy the
most curious.
The world is full of people who are
always glad to see the sun set whether
they have their jobs done or not, and
yet they curse the luck because they
are always poor.
A man will slobber tobacco juice all
over his shirt front and woman will
cut herself into with corset, and yet
some people will wonder why there are
so many bachelors and old maids.
The reason why there is so much I'M
happiness in the world is because there
are so many men who are little toe
smart to work in the blacksmith shor
and not quite smart enough to edit q
paper.

From the Shutdown Simeon.
Shutdown has man whose brow is so
low that when he weeps the tears run
down the back of his head.
Subscribing for newspaper and pay
ing for it is too big job for most peo-
pie They want to subscribe and let

Our representative in the legislature

1t seems to be getting common for
people to fall dead while praying. Our
preacher tried it last Sunday for three
hours but the congregation came nearer
the dropping.
When we started the Simeon we
thought that we had selected a site in a
colony Of retired newspaper editors and
business managers, and that our failure
to heed their advice and suggestions
would lose us all our subscribers, but
we soon discovered that they all take

"e* Where a party takes a paper out
OF the office he will be liable for the subscrip-
tion price for it, whether his time is out or not,
or whether he subscribed for it originally or
