Reflections of a Bachelor.

There ought to be law to
make every grass widow carry
around a cow bell.
An old bachelor is d man who
has thought seriously enough
of getting married.
There are more men than
women in the world, but if half
the women had the men they
wanted there would be none
OF US left for the rest.
The average man suspects a
woman who is honest enough
not to try to smile when he
steps on the back of her dress
and they Doth hear it tear.
The man who believes that
every woman has her price Is
the same boy who used to steal
chalk at school and put marks
on the brownstone houses ON
the way home. N. Y, Press.

The Country Editor.

"No man IN the community
does more for the public and
receives less for it than the
country editor" said Senator
II. Clay Heather, of Palmyra,
Marion county, in the Missouri
State Senate when the bill re.
ducing the price for publishing
the Australian ballot was I'M
der consideration. IF all the
space he employs in booming
the town, in helping individu
ais, in making tatesm cn-some
times out of pretty raw materi-
al-were paid for even at half
the legal rate, he would be the
richest man IN the county. Few
country editors are rich, but
they are of more service to the
communities where they live
than the wealthiest man. They
are in the forefront Of every
movement for progress. They
do the work and leave the
emoluments to others. A good,
clean, honest country newspa
per and most country newspa
are good and clean and hOr est
helps on every worthy cause
and deserves every encourage
ment. 1t fights the party bat
ties, holds up the hands of the
reformer and makes the scound
rel afraid. I am opposed to
this bill. No paper in my
county would print the ballot
at the'pitiful price named They
are not paupers. But, for the
amount of splendid public SER
vice they render, they ought to
be mil.ionaires."
