He Is Tanned Now.

About two years ago fairly well
known young man of this town who, In
the days of his bachelorhood, was ad-
dicted to the habit Of conversing
through his head-covering. was deliv-
ering himself oracu!arly on the sub
ject of the duties of paternity
"A man who'll wheel baby car
riage," he perforated, loftily, lis a
triple-plated, quadruple-expansion ass.
On Sunday afternoon last he was OBJ
served-all of the customary earmarks
of sartorial economy distinguishing his
make-up-placidly trundling a peram-
bulator through Lafayette park. 4
huge. fat baby goo-gooed in the per-
ambulator and little lady with a
bulgy, homemade bonnet walked at
his side.
Silence Is ready money, and there's
lot OF pathos In the spectacle of 4
tanned man.

STANDARDS OF POLITICAL NOR

"The difference between standards Of
political morality and of personal NOR
ality attracted attention as long ago
as the days of the Greek philosophers.
From that time onward every moralist

In Memorian.

Artemus Day Taylor, died of a
complication of pneumonia and men
nights at his residence near the Key
tesvllle depot the evening of Feb. S,
1900.
He was born in Foster, Kentucky,
Aug, II, 1913, and was the son of
Mr. and Mrs. John w Taylor, who
moved to Brunswick, Mo-, when
Artemus was two years old. A few
years later Judge Taylor bought a
farm 4 miles south of Keytesvile on
which the family lived until 1863
when they moved back to Kentucky
where Artemus grew to manhood,
April 2, 1873 he was united in mar
riage to Miss Laura Schoolfeld.
Six children were born of this union
all of whom preceded their father to
the grave save John w, Jr., who has
just attained his majority, and who
with his mother, Is spared to mourn
the loss OF father and husband good
and kind
Mr.. Taylor was never a member of
the church, but had talked with his
godly wife on the subject of religion
of late, and expressed desire to con
meet himself with the Presbyterian
church.
At 8 o'clock p. m. on the 7, inst.
his remains were taken to the Pres
byterian church where Rev Finley,
the pastor, delivered a ve.y appro-
pirate discourse, after which all that
was mortal of a good man in all the
relations of life were laid to rest in the
Keytesville cemetery.

Road improvement.

The citizens of KeytesvIlle and o.
the Forks Of Charlton, and all others
who have had occasion to travel on
the Keytesvlle and Salisbury road
through the Charlton bottom, east Of
the new bridge. have felt the impera-
tive necessity of improving the route
so as to avoid the travel through mud
and water that prevail during a good
portion of the year
AS a result of the recent boom for
Keytesville, some of our enterprising
citizens both IN town and country
conceived the idea OF leveeing and
bridging the entire distance from the
bridge to the bluff. Under the law
permitting county courts to appropriate
money amounting to one half the
costs of such improvements they ment
to work held meetings interviewed our
people and secured pledges for sum
approximating 5000. Armed with
this pledge large delegation, both
from town and the country, appeared
before the honorable county court
last Monday, when a clear presenta-
ton Of their case was made by !.
c. Crawley, Surveyor Arlington,
Oscar Wood and Capt. J. c. Wallace.
The court gave the gentlemen a
respectful hearing. Each member
gave expression to feelings of sympa-
thy and strong desire to grant the
prayer of the petitioners, but took the
matter under advisement and promised
to render a decision before adiourning
this term of court.
From estimates made by Surveyor
Arlington the cost of the levee will be
ST., 200, and the bridges or high
culverts will be about $500 in addition.
The court is not right certain as
to where the money is coming from.
The bridge fund can be drawn from to
build the bridges, but the 5000 to aid
IN making the levee would have to be
appropriated from the county fund, !
and they fear there is not on hand
a sufficient amount to authorize the
court in doing so. The decision is !
awaited with a good degree of anxiety.
LATER:-The court after coIsulta-
tation agreed to appropriate $500 to !
aid in making the levee

BITS FROM PARIS

An international congress of eth.
nclogy will be held at Paris in conne:.
ton with the exposition from August
rs to September 1, 1900.
Among the sights of the Paris ex-
hibition will be the Horrors of War;
building which M. de Bloch is fitting
up with pictures, models and other
means of exciting feeling against war
fare.
There will be over 1000 exhibitors
at the Paris-exposition, and the United
States is in the first rank of the ex-
hibitors. The display will be strictly
representative, and will show in an
adequate manner the excellence of our
productions. In 1873 we had less than
a seventh as many exhibitors.
A map of France in stone, which is
being prepared in Russia for the Paris
exhibition, is a wonderful example of
the lapidary's skill. 1t shows each de-
partment in colored jasper, the sea is
represented by lapis lazuli, the rivers
by platinum and the LOG towns are
represented by precious stones. The
ne%ighboring countries of France are
shown in gray jasper, and IA islands
are represented in the same color as
the nearest mainland. The map is
mounted on a marble slab about three
feet square, and it will be inclosed in q
silver frame.

Elk ctricitv and Life.

1t has been demonstrated that an ami
NAL killed by electricity may be brought
to life. An ordinary current does not
produce instantdeath, and If it were pos
sible to have in readiness suitable APP
paratus consciousness could be restored
by the infusion of detibrinated blood. In
a like manner, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, the well known tonic, infuses life In
to debilitated bodies, by r%evitalixing and
purifying the blood. This wonderful
medicine permeates and distributes nut
ritine material to every part Of the body.
If It's quality or circulation is deranged,
trouble follow. Constipation, dyspepsia,
liver and kidney disorders all spring
from a weak condition of the digestive
organs, which affects the blood, and
through it the entire body. The Bitters
cures all such disordes and is an excel
lent spring tonic.

Americans have asked the legislature
Of British America for permission to

little known Omineca region in British
America.
During the month of December, ac-
cording to the Paris edition of the Her
aid, 7Os accidents rel caused by
horses, resulting in SO deaths and 656
injuries. In the same period there were
only 21 automobile accidents and only
one death.
In Paris an automobilist vas driving
an automobile at an excessive rate of
speed, and the driver of q tram car
was doing the same thing. They crashed
together, and a lady was caught be-
tween the two vehicles and her leg
was broken. The automobilist was
sentenced to two months imprisonment
without the benefit Of the frst-offense
law, and the driver of the tramway

with the benefit of this law, and they
had to pay jointly $4,000 damages.
