will do well to remember the follow
ing notes from the American Shot
and Leather Gazette,
Some men won't advertise whe
they are busy-think it will last fol
ever.
Some men won't advertise wher
times are dull-think the crack ol
doom is just about to the city line.
There are Others who advertise ali
the time. The later attract inquiries
and orders, and in good time can
pick what they want. In dull times
they get all there is going-the other
fellow is out OF business.
One is an optimist In prosperity, a
pessimtst in adversely, and narrow
guage weakllng all the time.
The other is just a plain, common
sense business man.
What kind are you ?

"A Soldiers Escape.


When Richmond had fallen and the great
commanders had met beneath the historic
apple tree at AppomattoH, the SD Penn.
sylvania Volunteers, prematurely aged, clad
in tatters and rags, broken in body but Of
dauntless spirit, swung into line for the last
"grand review " and then quietly marched
away TO begin life's fray anew. Rebel shot
and shell, the dread miasma Of the southern
swamp, sleepless nights and wearisome days
had depleted their ranks until only a hand
full remained. Among the number Asa Rob-
inson came back 10 the old home IN Mt.
Sterling, Ills; that he had left at the call to
arms four years previous. He went away in
the first flush of vigorous manhood; he came
back a ghost of the self that answered 10
President Linooln's call for" 100000 more"
With his return TO the old homestead
there came to him the knowledge that war
with him was only begun; that he must
fight the battle with disease to the end of his
days; that the glare Of southern sun and
the CALLING fire Of southern soldiery were
as nothing compared to the onslaught Of an
enemy that fought under cover and disre.
garded all the rules of civilized warfare.
Sciatic rheumatism fastened its fanRs upon
him, incapacitating him for manual labor and
rendering him, much Of the time, physically
as helpless as an infant. The years passed
by, but his sufferings, with increasing age,
were increased rather than diminished. He
spent small fortune for DOCTORS medicine,
praying for even temporary relief, but it did
not come.
To-day he is an alert, active man Of fifty
Eve years. His rheumatic pains have de-
parted and while there are traces of his
years Of suffering in his face he walks with
the soldierly bearing and springy step Of a
healthy young man.
To the Democrat Message reporter he talked
freely about his CASE Mr.. Robinson is man
of much more than average education and
intelligence, Where he is known in Brown
County his word is a. acceptable as the bond
Of the average man, and there is no question
but that In his case an almost miraculous cure

how they successfully manipulated

A PEDAGoGUE's VIEWS.
Professor j, s. Graham, the accom-
plished principal Of Yew Park school,
was shown the 6tatesman's account Of
the "hold up" He saidj "While l
oppose the payment Of that bill, l
never dreamed of remaining away
from council meeting to block leglsla-
tion. went up town on purpose to
attend the meeting and was told by
Recorder Edes that quorum proba>
bly, would not be present, so l re-
turned home,
On important matters is does seem
that four Of US vote one way and four
the other, but we often vote alike,
No, the Statemen is entirely wrong in
intimating that there has been a
holdup. l have nothing against Mr..
Mccoy and know nothing whatever
about the justness Of the account"
DON'T LIKE THE METHODS.
81 simply object to the methods Of
some of the council in making con-
tracts"
Councilman M. w. Hunt, when he
read the account in the Statesman
said; "Well If the Statesman wants to
make an issue of this Mccoy bill, all
right. IL has finally got to come, and
it might as we'll be oyer this bill as
any other.
DANCERS SHOULD PAY FIDDLER.
"When Mccoy came to me and
asked Why | did not pay the bill, l
told him knew nothing about what
he had done except by hearsay. l
told him to 90 to the man who hired
him, and get his money. That when
council made contract for work 1
would vote always to pay the BILL"
TAXPAYERS WOULD SAVE MONEY.
"Why," Captain Hunt went on to
say, Gas far as the "holdup" is con.
cerned, the taxpayers of this city
would save money if council never did
meet again. Nobody seems to be suf-
fering, that / know Of. Is anybody
hungering and thirsting for council
to meet? There's plenty Of grass,
they tell me, for the city's horses and
there's coal TO burn"
''If the Statesman wants to make
this an issue, we are ready for them"
Mr., Buren, the other member of
council, who had the audacity to op.
pose the rule of the "Big Four" is
absent from the city, being at Shasta
Springs, Cali. with Mrs. Buren, In the
interests of the latter's health. His
views on the subject of city affairs are
