While al the Murray -Hartt opera
in Mt. Sterling we had the pleasure
of meeting A. +. Stephens, of

Many people wonder why bores
live so long. A Salt Lick physician
of note has enlightened them. He
declares that talking is conducive
to longevity. and shows that the ar
guments of lawyers and the speech
es of politicians enable them to
live without taking the exercise re-
quired by other people. He advo-
Gates talking, shouting, crying, and
swearing if need be.

A couple of our young sports
WHO had taken just enough to fee
funny Christmas traded pantaloCnt
and walked into a thicket to max,
the exchange. Mr.. Doe stepped
out of his trousers, jumped int
the pair he had traded for, an(
walked off. But Mr.. Roe, who is ,
corpulent person, experienced SOM
trouble with his pair, and it soor
became evident to two or three o.
the boys who had caught on tina
they were too small in the legs
Here was a dilemma. The reporte
suggested that the efforts of sof
soap be tried, while another sym
pathizer remarked that if he wer,
in such a predicament he'd put ZEN
on over his head. None of tn,
remedies suggested were tried, bu
by perseverance and a good deal Of
hard work Mr.. Roe succeeded il
his undertaking. and walked of
with the consoling thought pressing
upon his mind that he had the bes
of the bargain.
Some ultra pious creatures, will
more meanness than spiritual lining
TO their inwardness, are trying t.
drive old Santa Claus out of thu
Christmas of the church. But won
they have a time doing it? As wei
talk of banishing mother from the
home or Hamlet from the play
What cruelty to the unquestionins
faith of childhood. What an at
tempt to destroy the stepping-ston'
of faith in Christ. 1t is consollne
to know that in ages yet to com,
old Santa Claus will not be reached
Administering angel will thi:
grand old man-so fat and full OF
the good and gracious. the delight
full and lovable old Santa-be wher
these spiritual dietators, these cold
hard, matter of-fact would-be phil.
osophers lie dead and forgotten
just 80 long as other women live
beside the Massachusetts modern
Puritan wives to people the world
and babies are born, so long will
Santa Claus contribute TO the
white bread period of mans estate
between the cradle and the grave.
