The Village Gossip.


where the person known as the village
gossip does not abide. OF course in
smaller places they are better known
and have wider and better field to
ply their vocation. This class of indi-
viduals are not all monopolized by one
sex; they are to be found among the
men quite frequently as among the
women. Both are well represented in
all towns. and both work alike to de-
fame and tear down rather than build
up character and reputation. The
male species is mean enough, vile
enough and untruthful enough to say
any thing that his virulent temper
may suggest. Truth has no conception
in his mind, his all prevailing ambition
is to cast a shadow of doubt across the
character of one whom he does not un.
derstand and is too vile and narrow to
appreciate. He is generally of a sour
sullen disposition, but sometimes he is
just the opposite, his hypocritically
face beaming with smiles, and a de-
meanor that would charm the angels.
His venom is of the nasty, dirty filth of
the moral gutter and has no place in the
conversation of true gentlemen, even
among themselves.
The man gossip, with all his vile in
situations, is, however, an angel incar-
nate in comparison to the female sort.
In her you will find all the traits of the
male species and in addition that ven
omous desire to destroy is more pro.
nounced and more virulent than that in
her less resourceful brother, who Is
generally content to wallow, like SOW
in the filth and mre of his own debas-
ed conscience. Not so with woman;
she must bring others down to her own
low standard. Her yillifying tongue
knows no virtue in another, and her
keen and penetrating foresight (?l can
usually, to her own satisfaction, con-
vince the world that all is not as it
appears to be. She is often of pious
nature and is found at the front in
matters of religion and charity where
her clarion voice is heard in behalf of
the poor and oppressed in soul and body.
Or she may be found with her nose
over the back yard fence chattering
with neighbor over the horrible revel-
alton made by Mrs. b. who told her
that Mrs. ID. had said that Mrs. Y
overheard Mrs. Y. say that she heard
Mrs. A. had told one of her neighbors
that the new family that had just NOV
ed over Ncross the way was not alto
gether right, aud before she called on
them she was going to find out for GER
tam what they were trying 10 cover up.
Nothing is good to either of them;
their minds cannot rise to that purity
of purpose for which it was endowed by
their Creator. Their whole mental be
ing is one constant doubt of others.
Their place III life is not above the
vulture and the buzzard and the great
black wings of their sordd intellect
carries them on and on, past truth, past
virtue, past all that is good, true and
innocent, down the dark pathway of
the dismal marsh in diseased minds.
Faith in their kind is unknown and only
the carrlon of life is sought to satisfy
the cravings of filth that comes from
the depth of moral depravity that en-
shrouds and debases all that is moral
within.-X. |

The stomach controls the man. It governs
him both physically and mentally. The man
is just what his stomach makes him. When
the stomach is right, the man is all right;
he feels good, he is happy, he is cheerful, the
world to him is all sunshine.
When the stomach Is wrong the man is
all wrong. He is out Of sorts, he is nervous,
he is irritable, he is gloomy and respondent,
he is cranky. His general disposition is
such that nobody wants to have anything
to do with him.
The stomach is the organ on which the
whole human system must depend for sub
sistence and existence. If the stomach
fails then what is to become of the rest Of
the body? Where does the force of life
come from? Doesn't it come largely from the
food? You know that If you stop eating,you
will die. But the mere eating Of food does
not give life Food can no more give life with
out digestion than coal can give heat with
out combustion. 1t is not what we eat but
what we digest that keeps up the motor
force Of the body.
Undigested food is not only useless but
harmful. 1t ferments and decays in the

EXPERT TESTIMONY.

The discontinue of a handwriting
expert IN the Rice murder case in New
York has called public attention again
to the falliblllty of expert testimony in
general, and to handwriting expert
testimony in particular. The expert in
the Rice case swore that he had been
/ familiar with Mr.. Rice's signature for
years, and then he identified a certain
signature purporting to be Mr. Rice's as
genuine e lie adhered to his opinion IN
der questioning, and then it was shown
that one of the attorneys for the de-
Tense had written the signature him
self a few minutes before.
The public aud the various bar asso-
Citations in the different states have
been engaged with this question of ex-
pert falibillty very often and as yet no
one has been able to devise afy ade-
quate remedy to safeguard the lives
and liberty and property of citizens
from being recklessly sworn away by
enthusiastic expert witnesses who get
carried away by their pursuits. To ex-
elude expert testimony altogether
would deprive the courts and Jur1es of
| enlightenment in professional and
technical matters that bear directly on
| the. controversies to be decided by
them To make the experts court Off
GERS would not make them any more re-
liable than they are, and they would
be given a quasi-judIcial standing that
would unduly increase the weight
of their testimony. The preset rule of
receiving their testimony, but scruti-
nizing it closely as likely to be biased,
seems the only feasible plan.
Experts are not naturally less truth
