Critics are as common as grass
hoppers. so don't worry yourself about
what people are going to say about this
and that action. No matter what you
do, or leave undone. some will criticise
you severely, and the very best rule for
getting through life with comparative
comfort is, after you have made up your
mind as to the propriety and advisability
of a certain course, to pursue 1t calmly
and without paying the slightest atten-
tion to the criticisms Of the lockers on
from the outside. You see, just be-
cause they are on the outside they can
only see the surface. II does not matter
In the least what they think.

The publisher of newspaper has one
thing to sell and one thing to rent. He
has the newspaper to sell and the space
in his columns TO rent. Can anyone in
form us why he should be expected to
give away either the one or the other ?
He can If he so chooses, and he does,
as matter of fact, furnish a great deal
OF space rent free. But 1t does not fol-
low that he ought TO be expected to do
so. 1t ought to be recognized as con-
tribution exactly as would be the giving
away of sugar or coffee by grocer.
But, strange to say, it is not looked up
on in that light at all, yet everybody
knows that the existence of a newspaper
depends upon the rent OF it's space and
the sale of the paper, as a merchants
success depends on selling his goods
instead Of giving them away.-1he Copy

for any season, but perhaps more
generally needed when the languid, ex-
hausted feeling prevails, when the liver
is torpid and sluggish and the need Of a
tonic and Alternative is felt. A prompt
use Of this medicine has often averted
long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers.
No medicine will act more surely in
counteracting and freeing the system
from the malaria poison. Headache,
indigestion, constipation, dizziness yield

DR.. Charles w. Dulles, Of Philadel-
phia, in paper read before the forty
seventh annual convention Of the Penn
sylvania State Medical Society held in
Pittsburg last week, said; "Hydropho-
bia is largely nervous disease, or
imaginary on the part Of the patient, or
resulting from fright or morbid fears"
He further declared that the patients
suffering from what is commonly called
hydrophobia are almost always killed
by attending physicians and not by the
disease" His views were assailed by
the doctors, case on case being cited OF
hydrophobia and examples given of how
incubation had resulted in all the symp-
toms OF rabies.

The Philadelphia Record says: Next
TO reducing the cumbrous size OF the
official ballot in this State the most i'm
portant amendment of the election laws
is to suppress the numerous assisted
voters and their assistants" Until
the Constitution of Pennsylvania shall
have been amended so as to exclude
analphabetists from the suffrage the
election laws should require two
members of the election board to assist
the illiterate voter in marking his ticket.
AS matters now stand every knave in
Pennsylvania who may wish to sell his
vote has only to pretend that he cannot
read: and then another knave is called
in to witness the sale.

Consistency Not In It.

We read in an exchange of certain
editor who wrote long and carefully
prepared article on the Importance of
patronizing home industries. giving
many reasons why farmers and others
should patronize home merchants rather
than send off for their goods. The
article was so good that it attracted the
attention Of the merchants and they
highly commended the loyalty of the
editor. One merchant was so favorably
impressed with the article that he sat
down and wrote congratulatory letter
to the editor, but to the surprise Of the
pencil pusher, the letter head which
the merchant used had been printed in
a neighboring town, and the return on
the envelope was made with rubber
stamp furnished by a Chicago axle

STRRNG IOOK ACTION.

10 the County Court Honse Rotten or
soundf
A large crowd OF citizens we're at the
court house yesterday TO participate in
'rehearing" Of the recent granting
Of a contract by the old board of com
mlssioners for the building of a large
addition to the present court house.
Some we're there TO protest against the
improvement and others favoripg It.
The protestators insisted that the pres.
ent location was poor and the building
unfit to be enlarged as the walls we're
even now giving way and dangerous.
They thought IT better TO buy another
site and build n court house
The other side maintain that the
present location Is good and that at n
reasonable expenditure the building
can be put in frst-class shape for a
permanent court house, saving the
county much expense
After waiting around couple OF
hours the crowd learned that County
Attorney Strang had settled the whole
matter for the present By bringing
action in the district court to test the
right Of the commissioners to make
the contract
Incidentally many Of those present
learned that the old boo1ling board Of
commissioners had not only bsgged
every dollar Of county funds on hand
but had anticipated the revenue for
the coming year and bankrupted al
most every fund In the road and
bridge fund debts have been created in
advance, using the entire revenue OF
the coming year and other funds are
in still worse condition.
