Advice TO n Young Man

Remember. my son. you have to
work. Whetheryou handle pick
or a pen, a wheGIbarrow or set
of books. dig bitches or edit a
paper, ring an auction bell or
write funny things, you must
work. If YOU look around YOU
will see the men who are the most
able to live the rest of their days
without work are the men who
work the hardest. Don't be
afraid of killing yourself with
oyerwork. 1t is beyond your
power to do that on the sunny
side of thirty. They die some
times, but It Is because they quit
work at s p. m. and don't get
home until a. m. It's the inter-
val that kills. my son. The work
gives You an appetite for your
meals: it lends solidity TO your
Slumbers: it gives YOU a perfect
and grateful appreciation of 4
holiday. There are young men
who do not work. but the world
is not proud of them. 1t does not
know their names: it simply
speaks of them as "old So-and-
SOS boys" Nobody likes them:
the great busy world doesn't know
that they are there. So find out
what you want to be and do, take
off your coat and make a dust in
the world. The buster you are
the less harm you will be apt to
get into, the sweeter will be your
and the better satisfied
will the world be with you.-Bob
B,lrdette.

Called to Preach.

\ negro who had acquired a
slight Smattering of knowledge
proposed to enter the ministry.
He consulted an old-time Negro.
who like most of that fast disap-
pearing class, had good practical
sense and little patience with the
"ncw issue" negro.
The aspirant for clerical honor,
told his venerable friend that he
was called to preach. He was
sure of this, because in a dream
he saw in the sky three golden
letters. &c. p. c." He could
make this mean nothing but "Go
Preach Christ.
The old negro heard the young
one patiently and then said:
"Julius you'Se sho' been called.
but you didn't read dat call right.
1t don { mean Go Preach Christ.
1t means Go Pick Cotton Dat
what It tmeanS, you t-iiiing rascal. "

Mr.. Editor, do you know what
kissing is2 Kissing is a noun, it 5
name proper noun because it,
the proper thing to do when they
are ready and the heart is willing:
plural number, because it takes
two to perform it; common gen.
der because it is performed by
one of each sex: possessive case
because it possesses delicate
infatuation for the human race
and agrees with the parties per-
forming the act. Kissingis close
ly connected with. "buss" which
is a good old back woods express
sion, meaning a kiss that is highly
enjoyed by two greenhorns who
have powerful lungs to perform
the act with. In this case buss
means one kiss, rebuss means kiss
again, pluribus means a number
of kisses, hornibus means to be
caught kissing by the old folks,
merribus means to steal kiss,
sylibus means to kiss the hands
instead of the lips, blrinderbus

Mckinley Was a Mason.

President Mckinley is said to
have become a Mason under rather
unusual circumstances. His en-
trance into the order was am Incl
dent Of tie war between the states.
Ii came near the close of the civil
strife. while he was still in the
Federal army, with the rank of
major.
The young officer from Ohio
was stationed at Winchester. Va,
where was located a hospital for
Confederate wounded prisoners.
In making the rounds one after
noon with the regimental surgeon
Major Mckinley noticed that the
doctor was on very friendly terms
with several of the SouthernrrS,
not infrequeutly giving them
money. The interest of the future
president was aroused, and when
the opportunity presented itself
he asked the reason for this un-
usual cordiality. The surgeon
told him that they were brother
Masons and the major met this
information with the wish to be-
come a member of fraternity on
which neither prison bars nor
rank of Office had the slightest
effect.
The desire of young Mckinley
was made known to the officers of
Hiram Lodge No. 81, of VIM
chester, and on the night of May
|, 1865, at 7:30 o'clock. he pre-
sented himself for initiation. j.
B. I. Reed, a Confederate chap
lain, was Master OF the lodge and
the degree of Entered
Apprentice upon the candidate.
On the following evening the
degree of Fellowcraft was given,
while at the same lodge on the
May B, at three O'Clock,
he received the Master Mason
degree. But three Masons are
living who witnessed the initiation.
They are George Z. and c. ).
of Winchester and W. X.
Denny of Nashville, Tenn.
After the war Major Mckinley
affiliated with Canton Lodge No.
so, on August p, 1867, and after
became charter member of
Eagle Lodge No. 43, at Canton.
On December 2S, 1883, he was
exalted in Canton Chapter No.

Bible for Good Roads.


Speaking of a good roads meet
in. at Grenada. Miss. the Rev.
W. 4. HamIett said:
The subject Of good roads,
now being agitated. Is worthy of
the profoundest consideration.
The necessity Of such improve
ment is so patent that he who
would oppose it would only adj
yertise his stand against progress.
This matter of good roads inn
provement is not without It's
precedent. both anciently aud
scripturaily. We, in this modern
age of energy and invention, are
rather inclined to scoff at the
people whose existence is but
dim historic memory. Neverthe-
less. on the subject of improved
well kept highways, we may we'll
sit at their feet and learn. A
mere glance at Rome teaches Us
that.
"What would Rome's senator's
or legions Of war have done for
ihe City of Seven Hills had it not
been for her splendid system of
good roads? Having conquered
an outlying province, she linked
it TO herself by one of her en-
durable highways over which
social and commercial communi-
cation was established or over
which an army could march with
ease in time of rebellions. Today
traces of these roads still exist.
and, having endured the ravages
of weather and time, they remain
to remind us of that principle of
Rome worthy of Imitation by any
nation. Rome would never have
been what she was had it not
been for her roadways. Asystem
Of good roads make a good city or
nation. This is automatic.
Moreover, Scripture uses this
rs a figure. When the
Almighty, through prophecy. had
Savior, he likened him
TO a king who was about To visit
md in honor of whom the high
ways should be put in perfect
order. Prepare We the way of
the Lord: make straight I'm the |
DESERT a highway for our God.
Every valley shall be exalted, and
every mountain and hill shall be
Iow'. Isaiah Vi, 81. Even so
there is another king, though an
lncrOwned one. who wishes TO
visit our cities. but who is him
lered by the unsatisfactory con
litiOn Of our roads. If he comes
ne will bring plenty with him. l
refer to his majesty the farmer.
lie can exist in his independent
way without the cities, but the
titles can't exist without him.
Prepare your highways, exalt the
valleys, bring low the hills, and
ct this king come in. Citizens,
mill cool roads
