It has always been the custom among newspapers, when clipping news items from neighboring pa- pers, to give the proper credit, but it seems that this custom is ignored by the Batesville Guard. We notice in it almost every week items taken bodily from nearby ex- changes and printed as original items of its own. We notice also that The Journal is scissored free ly by the Guard; in fact there is never a week that the Guard does not use from two to a dozen of our news items and during the ten months The Journal has been do- ing business we have noticed two items clipped from our paper that were credited. But we are not surprised at this; the Guard will do anything.

THE WANTS OF MAN.

"Man wants but little here below, Nor wants that little long," Iris not with me exactly so,
 But 'tiS so in the song. My wants are many, and If told,
 Would muster many score; And If each wish was mint of gold, l still would long for more. What first I want is daily bread, And canvas-6acks and wine; And all the realms of nature spread Before me when dine. With four choice cooks from France,
 beside,
 To dress my dinner we'll, Four courses scarcely can provide My appetite to quell. What next I want, at princely cost, Is elegant attire; Black sable furs for winters frost And silk for summers fire, And cashmere shawls and brussels lace My bosom'S front to deck, And diamond rings my hands to grace And rubies for my neck. want (who does not want?) wife, Affectionate and fair; To solace all the woes of life,
 And all the joys to share; Of temper sweet, of yielding will, Of 1irn., yet placid mind, With all my faults to love me still, With sentiments refined. And as times car incessant runs, And fortune fills my store, I want Of daughters and of sons From eight to half score. 1 want talas! can mortal dare
 Such bliss on earth to craye?) That all the girls be chaste and fair, The boys all wise and brave. I want warm and faithful friend To cheer the adverse hour; Who pe'er to flatter will descend, Nor bend the knee topower; A friend to chide me when l m wrong, My inmoSt soul to see; And that my friendship prove as strong For him as his for me. l want the seals Of power and place, The ensigns of command, Charg'd by the peoples unbought grace To rule my native land. Nor crown or scepter would ask But from my country's will, By day, by night, to ply the task Her cup of bliss to fill. I want the voice of honest praise To follow me behind, And to be thought of in future days The friend of humankind; That after ages, as they rise,
 Exulting may proclaim, In choral union to the skies,
 Their blessings on my name. These are the wants of mortal man; l cannot want them long, For life itself is but span,
 And earthly bliss song. My last great want, absorbing all,
 Is, when beneath the sod, And summoned to my final call
 The merry of my God.

The question naturally arises: If the Batesville Bee knew so much about the primary election fraud, why didn't it say something two or three months agos It makes its statements smell rather fishy for the Bee to come sneaking in from its hiding place now, after the fight is all over, and go to de- nouncing fraud.

Some interesting details have lately
been published concerning tha use of
ozone in purifying water. Ozone is
oxygen in a highly active condition
and it occurs in small quantities in
the air of the sea and of the noun

has been erected for the purpose of ex-
perimenting on the effects of ozone in

has been shown that, as regards water

cubic centimeter t.061 cubic inch) to
10, which is practically nil. The total
cost is set down at 80 cents per 1000
cubic feet. Ozone has long been
known as natures disinfectant," and
its application to the publication of
water becomes, therefore, a matter Of
great interest. If the cost can be re-
duced this mode of publication may
have a chance of widespread adoption.

A Curious Rain fall,

On Jan. 2 of this year rain fell at
Periers in France for several hours.
The rainwater collected looked like I've,
or like water containing clay. 1t vas
odorless. of earthly taste and slightly
saline. After twenty-four hours it
precipitated an abundant deposit that
was almost entirely silicious. Linen
clothes and the leaves of plants were
covered with a considerable silicious
matter. AS previous rains had thor
oughly wetted the ground this phe-
nomenon is not to be explained by
supposir ; that a large amount of 81
licious dust had been carried into the
air by winds and subsequently precipi-
tated by rain. The most probable ex-
PLANTATION Is that the water of the pre-
vious rains lay in very shallow 'ools
on the surface of silicious groun,. IA
that by high winds (Which wee OBJ
served) the water was raised into the
air and subsequently descended as
rain.
