The Great Modern Newspaper.

When all that portion of the United
States west of the Missouri and Kaw

half century ago, the first issue of one
of the worlds greatest newspapers ap-
peared. St. Louis was then a mere over
grown town on the western frontier of
civilization, has developed into a great
commercial metropolis. and that great
modern newsgatherer, the st. Louis
Globe.Demo"rat, has kept pace with the
progress of its city and section. 1t has
been, from it's first issue to. the present
time, the children's tutor, the youths
counselor, the woman's companion, the
farmers instructor and friend. Its cir
culation extends to every state and terri
tory of the Union, to Canada and Mexi-

Newspaper Don is.

Don't discontinue newspaper until
you have squared up with it.
Don't abuse paper unless you pay for
it. Borrowers are the greatest fault
finders newspaper has to contend with.
Don't get mad if your visitors name
does not appear in the personal column.
Perhaps you did not tell the editor and
he's no mind reader.
Don't delay paying your subscription
because it is a small matter. If all the
subscribers did the same thing it would
kill the paper in six months.
Don't cuss the editor because his opln-
ions do not conform with yours. If they
did he might be at variance with some
eight or ten million people.
Don't abuse paper if it chooses tc
print something you do not consider
worth reading. Those who read youl
part OF the paper may consider it pure
rot. A paper is built to please many
not one.
Don't take paper out of the post office
for five years and then refuse to pay tol
it, "because you never subscribed for II
anyhow" You could have refused /
four years and eleven months ago.-Ex

Judge Dearing at Rolla.

Hillsboro Democrat: Judge Dearing
had a rather novel experience in holding
court at Rolla, Mo-, last week and the
week before, and several officials there
also had an experience that was probably
new to them. The circumstances were
as follows:
Two young men of that town had been
indicted for cruelty treating and robbng
an old German farmer, and their attor-
neys wore out the patience OF Judge
Woodside until he refused to grant any
further continuance; and they evened up
with him by taking the case from him on
an affidavit that he was prejudiced. lie
thereupon telegraphed Judge Dearing
to come and hear the cause.
When the Judge goV there he found
not only the Judge deposad' but the
sheriff and his deputy, the coroner OF the
county and the jury all disqualified by
affidavits charging them with prejudice
Judge Dearing called the cause for tIlal
and found that in addition to the above
facts none of the witnesses were present,
although having been subpenaed' They
thought they had Judge Dearlng up
stump for good, but he showed them a
trick wo tn several O.; theirs. He knew
only one man in the town and that was
the clerk at the hotel at which he was
stopping, and he appointed that man 10
act as sheriff and had attachments lSSu-
ed for all the witnesses. He brought III
the local witnesses, but some OF the VII
nesses lived in st. Louis and the sherli
of that city, on advice OF his attorney
! refused TO serve attachments because Ms
fees were not paid in advance. Juug'
Dearing thereupon locked up his Phelps
county witnesses and sent his hotel clerf
to ST. Louis with attachments Tor INT
witnesses and also for Sheriff Dickmai
and his deputy, who had refused to serve
the naners. All this consumed time, bu
the hotel clerk finally got in with his 0t
Louis sheriff and witnesses, and TN
court proceeded to try one of the de-
PENDANTS, who was found guilty by tn
Jury and sentenced to five years IN III
penitentiary. Sheriff Dickman and nj
deputy made apologies and pleas o
ignorance and were let off on payment o
costs Of attachment, while the witnesse
were fined and the Judge left them Il
iail. Not having time to try the othe
prisoner, his case was continued.

The 0utcasts A Tale of the North
west.

Mr.. w. A. Fraser, author Of the Moos-
wa and Others, has just written for early
publication in THE SATURDAY EVENING
Posi- short, stirring serial, entitled The
Outcasts.
The Outcasts are an old buffalo and a
wolf-dog, and the greater part of the
story is about the strange comradeship
and striking adventures of these COM
panions, and their pilgrimage, in COM
pany, to the distant plains of deep grass,
OF which the wolf-dog knew.
There are action, and strength of word
and phrase in the story, and the touch of
the soil and the music and charm and
sombreness of the forest. The rush of
the frenzied buffalo herd to death is told
with splendid dramatic power. The plan
Of the book is unique conception, and
it is worked out on novel and entertain
ng lines.

The Agents Best Chance.

The Constitution now offers
S250O,OO in cash prizes to agents for
the very best agents work during
the first quarter of the first year of
the new century. Omitting all con.
tests, except for agents, they place
the whole sum to the agents credit
and make the terms equitable for
distributing it over the whole teri
tory. The Constitution wants good
agents everywhere. Men who will
get out and canvass and hustle for
new business, Many who have to 60
over their own and adjoining couu-
ties on business can take The Con.
stituuon along as the best side line.
Country doctors, rural route mail
carriers, nursery men, farmers and
good workmen. could all realize a.
mong the prizes and make their
commission besides. A fair salary
proposition for anv man.
The WeekIy-Constitution makes
special feature of its agricultural
page, which is presided over by
Colonel R. J. Redding, director of
the Georgia experiment farm, and
u man who is recognized as an AK
pert on all agricultural topics. He
gives a full page every week on az.
ricuiural matters A page is devo-
ted to the women and a page to the
children, these two departments
being presided over by Mrs. william
King.
Every man should take his county
newspaper before anything else,
and next to this he should take a
good general newspaper, such as
The Constitution. His county pa
per gives him the local home news,
which is not supplied by a news
paper furnishing the general news
from all parts of the country and
from all over the world. Before a
man seeks information from out
side, he should first feel sure that
he is being kept posted on what is
going on ut home. When, however,
the opportunity is offered to get
the best weekly newspaper in this
country with your home paper, the
lnducement is such as to elicit
prompt response from our readers.
We will be glad to receive club
blng subscriptions with this paper
and The Constitution, and if there
are any who are now subscribers
to this paper, who wish to take The
Constitution also, we will be glad
to receive subscriptions to the lat
ter and forward them, having au'
thorsty from that paper to do so.
The Constitution should be in

Mr.. Grow has accepted position with
the Pennington Herald. We trust Bro.
Grow will be more fortunate in the future
for he certainly deserves it. Here is his
valedictory:
Of course am expected to say: "that
it is with feeling of deepest regret that
l take leave of the good people of Madi-
son county etc. etc ad infinltum," but l
am compelled to admit that I will shed
no tears over the death of the Republican.
For almost a year have been engaged
in labourously grinding out political rot
aud campaign lies for the delectation Of
Madison County Republicans and to say
they have been ungrateful would be ex-
pressing it mildly.
E litorially the Republican has been
wicked, very wicked. We have called
the bride beautiful and accomplished,
when she was as ugly as mud fence and
wouldn't know piano from dry goods
box. However the various husbands have
probably found out their mistake by this
time, and an explanation is unnecessary.
