What an Editor Does.

Editors are said to be cynical. Is it any
wonder? What other professions meet
with such constant and universal ingrati-
tude? Through the life of what other
man does this black sin so persistently
drag its slimp form? No other avocation
is so full of unselfishnes5, helps so many
people, builds so many fortunes, makes
so many regulations. No other is given
to expressions of kindness and sympathy
and benevolence. The editor has word
of encouragement for every work of en-
terprise and philanthropy, and words OF
approval for every deserving public act,
sends sunshine and happiness into
thousands of lives. That newspaper is
never printed which has not something
in it to help some one. Scientists,
scholars, divines, politicians, tradesmen
statesmen, by the million, owe their fame
and prosperity to the editor. Nor does
he help only those whom the world calls
great. He is friend to the friendless
and a constant benefactor to all classes
And his kindness stops with the grave
His is the hand which pays the last tri.
butte of affection, often to an enemy
And yet how rarely is he thanked. How
few manifest any appreciation Of what he
does for them? His benevolence is ac,
cepted as matter of course. How many
repay him with the basest ingratitudei
Is It any wonder that he is full of cyni.
cism and even Of bitterness when he thu
continually encounters the coldness, thu
meanness, tn emptiness of human
naturep-Fayetteville Sentinel.

The Noblest Eulogy.

With tears streaming down his face a
man stood by the casket of his dead friend
and said simply but gratefully;' "He
made me better"
Ones biography might contain hun
dred volumes and still not reflect as much
honor upon him as would these tender
words. No monument however high is
80 much to be desired as this-that men
and women with whom we come in con-
tact may be able while we are living and
when we are dead to say OF us: "lIe
made me better"
Let funeral orators be dumb and flow
ers be absent from our coffns; let the
long funeral train stay away and pail
bearer be all active and none honorary
but let some poor man be able to say
sincerely: "He made me better"
That will be honor enough. That is a
worthy ambition which impels a man to
add to the worlds wealth of money and
of mind, but it is worthier one to con-
tribute to the worlds goodness, to add
ever 80 little to mems virtues and thereby
to their happiness.-Ex.

Kseping Bows on the. Farm

Lave Stock indicators During the
Farmers Institute season now In
progress throughout all the agricul'

to be observed from the programmes
of previous years is that there are
fewer men and women who feel
moved to lay down infallible rules,
by which the boys are to be kept

felt that the question after all is O
personal one and that while parents

Every Monday and Thursday a
newspaper as good as magazine
and better, for it contains the latest
by telegraph as well as interesting
stories-is sent to the subscriber of
the "Twlce-a-We eek" Republic which
is only 81 a year.
The man who reads the "Twice-

political domestic and fore G n
events; is posted about the markets
and commercial matters generally.
The woman who reads the Twice.
a.Week" Republic gathers a bit of
valuable information about house
hold affairs and late fashions and
finds recreation in the bright stories
that come under both the headings
of fact and fiction. There is gossip
about new books and dozen other
topics of especial interest to the
wide.awake man and woman.

We have been informed that a

ing to w. X. Chandler. G. W. Wood
and others, has been leased to an
eastern company. who will begin
prospecting on it about the first of
March with improved drills. The
land IS supposed to be rich in lead
and in in our opinion this will mark
the beginning ofan era ofprosperity
for our county never before known.
The same company Is said to have
leases on several thousand acres of
land 10 Southeast Missouri which
will be prospected. Hon. A. j. d.

ed with farming TO seek employment
of some other kind than it is to
vainly try to make square peg fit
a round hale. From the standpoint
of social economy and the public
welfare there is much to be said in
favor of an effort to keep the young
men on the farm wherever it can
be done in fairness to the young
men. The present population of
cities of $4,000 and upward, accord
ing to the census of this year, is
1854, ,625 as against l4,955,489 in
1890, an increase of 4,839, 1856. The
percentage of this increase is thirty.
two and onehalf while that Of the
country at large is only about 2l
per cent. In other words, the
population of cities is increasing at
greater ratio than that of the
country as q whole, and probably
about twice as fast as the population
of the rural districts taken separate
ly. From the standpoint of the
political economist this condition of
affairs is serious. Nevertheless,
from time out of mind since the
work of civilization began, there
has been a constant contest between
the welfare of the individual and
that of society. Even civil liberty,
which we all value so highly, is
Natural liberty so far restrained,
and no farther, as is necessary and
expedient for the general advantage
of the pubIic.' Ifa young man
wants to leave the farm and go to
the city it is his right; if he is really
better adapted to city conditions
and city employment than to those
Of the country, it is even his duty
to seek environment that cor
responds best to his capacities. The
old idea that anybody can farm is a
back number. The farmer of the
future must be as good man and
as we'll equipped in his calling as
the lawyer, physician, the railroad
man, and the merchant are in theirs.
The fact will of itself retain many
young men on the farm. If they
find that they can naturally and by
inheritance, as it were, fall INTO the
calling Of their fathers and discover
In it opportunities for doing things
that are worth doing better than
anybody has eyer done,them before;
if they find that agriculture is a
progressive art based upon scientific
principles the understanding f
which affords mental occupation,
as well as opportunities for muscular
labor, thousands of young men who
would be discontented with a life
of mere drugery that left the mind
stagnant, will gladly embrace it.
If, in addition to this, developed
agriculture can become a more
profitable agriculture, securing for
its followers larger share of the
comforts of life and affording the
same opportunity for becoming we'll
to.do that other callings afford,
young men who ought to stay on
the farm will stay there without
any special urging.
