The solicitor of the treasury has recently
rendered number of decisions defining the
status of Chinese Students entering the

over $4 stand of bees, and in ten
minutes looked like warty summer
squash. His cries reached his father
who ran to his assistance, and fail
ing to notice barbed wire, cut a
handful of flesh from his anatomy
and ruined $4 pair of pants. The
old COW took advantage of The gap
in the fence and got into cornfield,
and killed herself eating green corn.
Hearing the racket, the wife ran out,
upset four gallon churn full of
rich cream into a basket of kittens,
drowning the whole flock. In the
hurry, she dropped a 81 set of
false teeth. The baby, left alone,
crawled through the spilled milk and
into the parlor, running a brand new
$40 carpet. During the excitement
the Oldest daughter ran away with
the hired man, the dog broke up
eleven setting hens, and the calves
got out and chewed the tails off four
fine shirts. ."-Exchanqe.

HOW TO BE HAPPY.

Itis wei! known fact, which, how
ever, most of us deny, that happiness,
like any other virtue, can be cultl-
waited. This is no mere supposition.
1t is the truth, the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth. Moreover
we ought to be happy, we can be
just as good-usually fifty times bet
ter-if We are happy than if we are
melancholy. A long face is not syn
onymous with piety. Happiness is
our birthright, not gloom, not rigor-
GUS discomfort, but Joy and sunshine.
One of the best recipes for the pro-
duction of happiness is a contented
mind, and as a contented mind Is a
mind that owns something to make
it conten ted, it behooves all of us to
brighten our existences rs much as
possible. The way in which a GER
tain woman of my acquaintance, &C
compIished her own happiness, is as
simple as it is advisable. She had
(for no particular reason), been IN
the habit of wearing nothing but
black. Black she discarded, sub
stituting for it pretty and becoming
colors. Then she had denied her
self new books, saying that she could |
not afford it. But she found this |
was mistaken economy; a new book
once in while, and a bright maga-
zine taken regularly costs very little
and brighten life immensely. More.
over, she instituted little, cosy, COM
teas for her friends, and for
herself wrote out and practised the
prescription, "a good laugh to be
INDUCED in three times day" She
kept in her mind a stock of funny
incidents and jokes to make her
laugh, and three times u day, in
stead of drinking down tonic med
lcine, administered unto herself a
hearty laugh. That woman was her
own best friend. Her plan was a
success. Why don't you try it?-

Why For Bryan?
.Neiv York Journal.I

Not only do William j. Bryan S
party services in time of adversity
entitle him to the Democratic nomi-
nation, but he is the best repre-
sentative of that hostility to privilege,
favoritism and corruption which is
the essence of Democracy, and which
has become the one vital issue in
American politics.
The American people all love and
honor Dewey but many believe that
the grand old man is being deceived
and used by Mclean and a clique
of corruptionists.
The Journal is happy to learn that
Dewey is a Democrat, and is sure
that as Democrat he will be called
upon to support and strengthen in
some adequate capacity the coming
Democratic administration.
But the Journal stands, as it has
always stood, for William Jennings
Bryan, IS President of the United
States.

IRvINGTON VIRGINIA FRIDAY, APRII. 81. l9oo.
VINDICTIVENESS.

The possession Of the disposition to
be vindictive is wholly incompatible
with moral character. "Forgiye us
our trespasses as we forgive those
who tresspass against us" is one of
the beautiful sentiments of the Lords
Prayer. The moral man is guided
by that sentiment. He is mercifui
because he prays FOR mercy; he is len
lent in his judgement, more desirous
to reform than to punish; he forgets
wrongs rather than bears malice, and
has not in him the smallest element
Of a vindictive disposition. Where
vindictiveness is shown we may be
sure that there is lack of mora,
sense. 1t is somewhat curious to OBJ
serve also that the vindictive have
seldom any real wrong to revenge.
They very often imagine the injury
they seek to return IN kind of dis
tort the circumstances which gave
rise to the injury, real or supposd.
The most vindictive people are those
who have brought upon themselves
the injury of which they complain.
Vindlctiveness, like all forms of re-
venge, is illogical as well as immoral.
Its presence is sign of an exceed
ingly low type of morality. The best
among us, being afflicted with mortal
failiugs, may for moment or two,
while in passion, be disposed to re-
venge real or fancied wrongs, but no
one with proper feelings indulges
such sentiments or allows them to
control his actions. The gust of |
passion having passed, vindictiveness
disappears with it in all natures ex-
cept those without moral sense.
Where malice persists we may safely |
assume that there is a criminal dis
position. Vindlctiveness has no re-
lation whatever to the desire to viudi-
cate, in the common acoeptation of
the two terms. To vindicate ones
self from false charge one does not
assail another. The vindictive dispo-
sition, on the other hand, aims at re-
venge. It's purpose is not vindication
but some form of vengeance. 1t is
an utterly immoral desire to usurp
the functions of the Almighty. The
recognition Of this fact should warn
us all against the nursing of malice
and should put us on our guard
against those who exhibit vindic-
tive disposition. They are morally
unsound and upon occasion are liable
to develop into BaUo.

phe of the closing century is now
being enacted, and unless help comes
speedily to India's relief, millions of
men, women and children, principal
ly of the farming communities, must
die before the next crop is harvested.
Three months ago the English
Government placed the number of
affected at thirty millions; to-day it
admits that this estimate was too
low, and that double the number
would probably be nearer the truth.
Five millions of these people are now
employed by the Government at
wages averaging two cents day each,
but the remainder must be relieved
by private charity or succumb to
starvation. England is doing nobly,
but she not equal to the occasion, and
America, with her overhowing, burst
ing granaries, must speedily come to
the rescue or these millions will
perish from the very lack of what we
enjoy in superabundance.
