HILLH.M HEADERS.

Say, dear reader, have you seer
that great production, The PilotY
Well, il you have not, let me tel
you something about it.
As an introduction, Geo. X. VIII
son says "One of the most com
mon charges brought against the
schools by the journals is, that pu-
pills leave the grammar schools with
out being able to write respectable
letter, and with no knowledge of the
most common business forms. The
compilers of this e-hand book
have resolved to eliminate this
charge from any schools under their
care. i"
The title of the book is "The
Pilot and, at is intended TO
Pilot the tbs pupils of "Our
Schools" over the rocky roads OF
grammar, the mysterious mists of
orthography, the whirlpools Of
punctuation, the main channels OF
capitalization, and the deep waters
of correspondence; and to guide
them safely to the shores of the
English language"
just think, of it, dear reader. all
the above topics treated in little
twenty eight page pamphlet, which
in reality looks, excepting the
pictures, like Barker's Almanac.
But when you consider the ability
of the compilers you will not won
der. But we can't understand why
these books should be kept hidden,
neither can we see any reason why
they should not be circulated from
house to house all over this county
and all the adjoining counties.
In this issue we will only review
one chapter ana we will say by way
of prelude, that we don't wonder
that pupils leave the grammar
schools without being able to write
a respectable letter when books
compiled by such authors as Mr..
Simmons are forcedin the scho OILS,
and recon nended by the County
Sup rintendent, simply because it
will give him free advertisement
Df the famous CD "Dubois County
History and Art Souvenir"
We believe in assisting young
people in their work, but we don't
believe in imposing uron Innocent
children by pressing supplementary
works, compiled by incompetent
men who can't even write 4 letter to
a paper without perveTting the En-
glish Language to such an extent as

We read fromthe Jasper COURIER
issue of October Sth, 1897, al
article, written by this compiler
entitled San Admonish to Boys,
which reads and spells as follows:
"Boys-You are now enterin.
upon a way of life, that you may
gain mental quickness, activity, anc
the faculty OF INDURIyG WEAKNESS.
But | want to inform that there will
be many roads to lead ycu astray
from the right path.
Many people will stand by the
wayside as sign-pos.s, to direct you,
but many of them only point the
way to lead you to UNHAp'NEss.
The idea you have already formed
for the future continuity, should be
carefully investigated and fully
known that your pursuit will not be
MERE a vain trial, but an achieve

A slight intercourse with man has
caused me to stay less value on
cleverness. "Me thinks an AK to
grind" or some other deed which
would be of some interest to him, il
it was taking from your labor to add
to his wealth.
Your mind undeveloped is like a
field resdy for cultivation, and few
years cultivated and then suffer the
wEADs and briers to occupy the
precious spot which has millions of
wealth and HAPPINESS in store for
you. All persons who have had to
make their own way in the world
have found that fair knowle Of ar
education is necessary.
Show me the man that is educa-
ted mentally and sINDUsTRoUs and
many chances has he to see his
way clear, to that of one way to the
nan that has no education.
ANY occupation you desire TO fol-
low let it be farmer, merchant, or
a doctor you should be able to IN
DuRE the labor, if it requires you to
be engaged sixteen hours day,
never letting WEAKNESS tramp down
your good intentions.
Fur hermore the ENDURANCE, re-
tentiveness and boon dispositions
are among the rDost important ac-
complishmenis for dealing with
men, are coMPARrTBLE with a hasty
brain.
If any Of you delight 10 prize
fighting or anything that is Of no
use to you, it should be cast aside
as worthless stuff and be fully en-
gagged in reading some good book,

too much ground as to be "Jack OF
all trade and IA master of none' but
better know a few things we'll, than
to know so many by half.
There are men who are not talent
ed, nor very LABoRUs, nor vigorous
and who could not be as they would
like to be, for fear a great failure,
r ever let any such ideas as this
arise in your mind, push onward as

strong of will and steadfast in pur-
pose. A man that does bear such
acts with single mind and istrust-
worthy is worth a dozen cf these
clever fellows that are only watch

Who is it that would not value a
good REPUTATION above all, can we
have that, viii hout first obtaining
a general idea, and then stirring our
mental powers that the young as
well as the aged will fern an opin-
ion OF us as long as we follow after
that which pertains to building up
character.
REPUTATION is not built in one
day, but in many, slowly and hon
estly we jog along. May man
grow in the eye of the people, and
many fail for the want of courage
have become drunkards, burglars,
murdeiers, and beggars. Such
things as this DOES happen but let
it not happen to you. Let none OF

lection, written IN October, welding

However we think if he will take

at the same time practice a little

teller and whatever OF speculation there
may be as to the permanency OF the sort
OF literature he produces it is to be said
Of his work that it does not claim hear
ing by reason OF any indirect or pretended
motive or purpose, but solely on It's power
to entertain the reader with clever, and
always pure writing. Mr.. Hope is gen
tlemen of culture, and IL is said that his
ability as platform reader is hardly less
satisfying tnan his capacity for inventing
a romance and telling his story In style
calculated to delight. Indeed, it is said
thatibefore no became an author no had
won repute as an orator
The proceeds of the entertainment that
Mr. Hone-and, by tho way, his full name

NEARNHss OF GOD AND HEAVEN

The thought that God IL a distant God,
and that Heaven Is FAR. far away ," Is
contrary 10 all the teaching Of the Bible.
Gods all ll-presence and Heavens nearness
are the leading themes of Scripture
1.-The Kingdom OF Heaven is at hand, "
said Jesus not once or twice, but repeat
edly. The circumstances sui rounding
his birth afford a most beautiful and i'm
pressive picture of the nearness OF Heaven
and earth. The brilliant star, the an
CELLO song, the glorious message OF peace
and good will, foreshadow in~splendid
metaphor, as well as the fact of actual oc-
ourIence, the truth of Jesus declaration
OF Heavens nearness. Heaven and
earth are near. Remove sin from earth
that Il. from human thought and action
and earth is Heaven ana Heaven Is earth.
The sinless condition Is Heaven; the sin
full condition Is He'll. This Is the limo OF
division. 10 teach anu demonstrate the
sinless life was Jesus mission, and we'll
may his coming have been hsralded by
striking signs Of Heavens nearness TO
earth. Let an increasing sense of Heaven =
presence in our consciousness be our
celebration of the Christ mass Then IL
matters little how much we externally
Observe the Christmas ceremonials. -
