Heads Minus Hats.

We have touched this delicate and
yet very important subject before, as
our readers have probably noticed.
We are constrained to say more be-
fore the winter season of lecture
course and other entertainments is
fairly launched. "Hatless heads" was
what our highly esteemed townsman,
ex-Gov. Hendee made an appeal for
in connection with his introducing
speech at the entertainment given by
the "Three Bostonians" the other
night, and that is exactly what the
entertainment attending public de-
sires. Hatless heads are by far more
pleasant to contemplate than head
less hats. Let US not any longer
sorter half believe that this matter is
but joke to which the newspapers
and others delight in calling atten-
ton. No, it's sober truth, honest
Injun, the removal of hats by the
ladies, who attend our entertain
ments, where an unobstructed view
OF the stage is wished for, is a con-
dition that is seriously desired. Els
pecially in this thoughtful considera-
tion for those in the row back of you
to be appreciated here, where there is
no raised floor and no galleries in
any public place where entertain
ments are held. Shall not the GUS
tom become fully and permanently
established, observed by all? We
trust it may. If the male portion of
society should congregate we'll up in
the front rows, every mothers son of
them wearing and continuing to
wear tall silk hats, that are really
not a circumstance to some of the
high standing, wide spreading plumes
that suffering mankind endeavors to
squint around, then, and barely pos
sible it may not be until then will the
good kind ladies know by experience
what it is to sit and guess at what is
going on upon the platform, and
fnallygo home with a cramped neck,
pair of aching eyes and a prayer
for heads minus hats.

The Bicycle and the Blues.

The bicycle has long been acknowl-
edged to he the hest possible means
for running away from the blues. No
other species OF lOcomOtion is half so
expeditions or effective Lately, how
ever, the wheel has been discovered
to be OF even more practical value as
respite. Blues are, largely imagin-
ary-if those who know anything
about them are 70 he beleved-and
may be dealt with accordingly. But
grief, trouble and worry of the def
mite, actual sort are not so easily
evadpd it takes all ones strength of
soul and body to bear them hero
ically, and anything that will tighten
! the burden is to be welcomed. In it's
own unassuming way the bicycle
does this. 1t is no respecter of con-
ditions, and it rests the mind and
refreshes the body under the severest
stress almost as effectually as when
trivialities are concerned. Ones men
tai health is largely regulated by
ones physical health, after all. A
case in point is that of a family
plunged into the deepest sorrow by
the death OF the father. The members
in their seclusiOn so pinned away that
there was great danger that they
would all fall ill. Their physician
finally ordered them to ride their
bicycles.
at will give you exercise and at
the same time divert your minds"
he said. At first they were aghast at
the thought; not only because of the
"Iooks of it," but because anything
pertaining to pleasure and diversion
was so at variance with their feelings.
Good sense ultimately triumphed,
however, and the doctors orders
were obeyed. OF course all the riding
done for some months was done at
night and chiefly on their own
grounds, but the gain was the same
better physical health and a better
state of mind. In no wise was their
grief lessened or mitigated, but,
thanks to the magic of regular out
door exercise, all faint of morbidness
was removed. Another family, at
present under the affection of the
prolonged illness of one of it's mem
bers finds untold respite and relief
in daily bicycle rides. In no other
way, they say, could they bear up
under the strain. The bicycle may
not pose as a universal panacea, but
as a first,class mitigator it is hard
to beat-PhHadelphia Times.

MORRISVILLE.
Excellent sanitary Conditions

1t is a fact worthy of note and
worthy of our self congratulation
that in the face of the sickness and
prevailing epidemic of fevers, diph-
liberia and other diseases that
numerous towns in the state have
been encountering during the un-
usual warm fall, Morrisville has been
remarkably free from anything and
everything of the kind. Such a mild
autumn especially, used to produce
considerable fever in this community,
but the causes and conditions have
changed. Pure fresh spring water,
instead of that taken from old wells,
a first class sewer system in place of
the bad sanitary conditions that
once prevailed, hold the key to the
situation. Who can say that our
water system and drainage is not
worth double the dollars invested
To be sure it makes it rather tough
on the medical profession, but in
spite of that we have double the
number of doctors that we formerly
had and they are a very prosperous
appearing class of individuals.

that the Morrisyille Gymnasium AS
ISOLATION may one of these days have
a building of it's own to occupy. The
experiment of organizing and equip
ping a gymnasium, which was made
last year, proved successful beyond
expectation, and has developed from
an experiment to fixed reality, to
the satisfaction and benefit of all

joyed the privileges of the very

of the room does not allow putting

proposition is made and is worth
consideration, as to the securing OF
land by purchase or rental on which

thing like 50x70 feet in dimensions,

The Habit of Saving,

Now that the good times are
marching upon US, filing the farm
and the factory and making the
people cheerful and the country glad,
it might be well for all to remember
that the best way to profit by the
depression of the last four years is to
have something out of the new pros
perity for any other possible season
of idleness and distress. With the
vast abundance that this country
has known, the habit of economy
has come slowly. Many have seen
the wisdom of it and they are our
rich people and the owners of our
lands and industries and banks and
various profitable properties. But
the great majority of people have
lived up to their incomes, and when
the wages stopped or the salary
ceased grim want stalked in. And
so good men and well-bred women
had to go to charity to keep from
starvation; had to sacrifice their
pride and accept of the public bounty,
because in their days of prosperity
they had forgotten the future.
Saving comes easily when it is once
begun. Do not spend more than you
earn. When Peter Cooper earned a
dollar he lived on fifty cents of it,
and the other successful men will
testify how hard the struggle was to
save the first money and how easy
it was after the habit had been form
ed. We are going to have four of the
greatest years the world has ever
known, but no one should let that
prosperity delude him into spending
all he gets. There is safety only in
saving.-Lesie'S Weekly.
