The more a woman knows about q man
the more suspicious she becomes OF him.
There Is no use prating OF honesty when
YOU have never been tempted to be dis
honest.
The longest day in the year Is not long
enough TO accomplish what woman plans
In the morning.

Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1899-02-18

The Forum is in scrap with the
Homecoming papers concerning the
relative bigness of the two towns-a
question settled by the JOURNAL even
long before the electric light company
extended the limits of Frostburg for
arc light consumption. Homecoming
beats Flostburg in university in only
one respect-it has two good news
papers.
Apparently the Cumberland Neus
accuses the JOURNAL of "Still Prod
ding Fairchild." 1t is dollars to
doughnuts that Fairchild would not
look at it that way.
Attention to "Bowery" is again de-
ferred. In tracing the shadow on the
wall the outlines of the head-devil of
the syndicate are plain, but those of
all his pals are not yet so legible.
w. J. Daley has discontinued all his
Frostburg and Eckhart dancing classes
during Lent.
Bailiff Bowen shot dog Wednes-
day in front of the Forum Office for be-
having strangely. Why the dog
stopped just at that point to expose the
disturbances which were wrecking his
nervous system is due, it is thought,
to the electrical miasma which pro
ceeds from the luconpruouS origin of
the heterogeneous environment.

Some FOSy English.

Mr.. sd. c." needs attention.
He is a newcomer, slightly preceded
by flourish of ink-sliuging prospectus
But, like those who have preceded
him, he will profit by reading the JOUR
NAL and eventually leave Frostburg "a
WISER" if not "sadder" man.
I'D. c." is new, but writes as one
able to improve upon his inspiration
For instance, it is incredible that the
president of the Forum company ever
used the word, progressive" in detin-
ing the "policy" of "the present town
administration" Progressive" is
manifestly sd. C."ism, prefxed to
give the amusing word, progressive, u
the fiuency of ALTERATION. The word,
progressive is amusing because it is
the first time it has been used to de-
scribe the "policy'' of living beyond
ones income.
The monthly item of Borrowed
from First National Bank" or Dor
rowed from Citizens National Bank"
is, therefore, receiving many tiatter-
ing encomiums from the citizens of
suburban Districts" etc. The afore-
said "citlzens' are too profuse. When
Daniel Webster said shall enter on
no ecomium upon on Massachusetts,"
he omitted the useless, rather dispar-
aging adjective, "tlattering.' But
the suburban citizens" are accused in
the Forum by SD. c." of paying the
Mayor and Councilman 'encomiums, s"
which, according to the Standard
Dictionary, are calculated to make
them appear, both to themselves and
the public, "better and more beautiful
than the reality"
But, Suburban citizens,' your great
men ought not to be tiattered. Thack-
cray said-''l would no more fiatter a
great man than mob" And Holland
entertained his readers with this wise
Thoughtful man whom it is proper
to praise cannot be fattered, and a
man who can be fattered ought not to
be praised"
Then there are the alliterative terms,
"fogyism" and fossil" characterized
as "old.n Suburban ctizens''-you
who have the votes but not the money
for "works of public utility that are of
the greatest benefit" to you-did you
ever know of a ''fogy'' or ''fossil'' that
was as young as a five-year contract ?
Thus endeth lesson number one.

Job Work.

There is consuming fear in the
Forum Office that the JOURNAL has
charged the gas company too much for
job work.
This fear, like some other ghosts set
up in the F0rum'S imagination, has
been inspired by somebody who has
one or two shares of gas company
stock and fears that several cents have
thus been lost.
But the JOURNAL. has charged the
gas company no more than it has any
body else.
The gas company's greatest draw
back ante dates the rise of the Jour-
NAL, and one of them falls inside of
the JOURNAL age, namely-when an
electric light Council openly ignored
it as bidder for town lighting
