A HAT to Local Merchants.

An exchange says: A good way
to head off the mail order house-and
especially now as the Spring season
is nearing--is to make liberal use OF
the advertising columns of the. local
paper. Let the public know that you
have what they are ordering from
abroad and just about as cheap, and
the more satisfactory way,
because if all matters are not right
your dealings are with Responsible
parties who will make them so.
There * no more effective way tor
checking, tbs tendency OF ~ending
away for goods than plenty Of Mt
tractive advertising III the home
paper.

With the contents of bottle that

tity of carbolic acid dashed full in
his face. John Turner. aged IS,
formerly of Parkersburg, now OF
Martins Ferry, ran moaning down
Market street, above Sixth, about
10 O'Clock Saturday night. The
terrible fluid was thrown by q
young woman whom Turner and
the police do not know. Turner
was seized by two boys who hap.
pened to be passing and was taken
to the home of a physician on
Main street, where soothing lotions
were applied to his blistered face.
1t was found that his eyes were
not injured. There is no clue and
no one knows for what purpose the
deed was done. His face was
frightfully burned and it is strange
that his eyes were not burned out.

About Editors.

In a little country school not far
away literary exercises are regular
ly INDUCED in every Friday after
noon during the term. A twelve
year-old boy read an original essay
on 'The Newspaper" This latter
day youthful Solomon treats his
subject thus:
Newspapers are sheets of paper
on which stuff to read is printed
The men look over it to see if their
names is in it. I don't know how
newspapers came into the world
/ don't think God does. The Bi.
BILE says nothing about editors, and
1 never heard of one being in heav.
en-. The first editor I ever heard
of was the Teller who wrote up the
flood. He has been here evel
since.
Some editors belong to the
church and try to raise whiskers
All of them raise hell in theil
neighborhood. Sometimes the pa.
per dies, and then people feel glad
but someone starts it up again
Editors never went to school, be-
cause editors never get licked
Our paper is mighty poor one
but we take it SO ma can use it on
her pantry shelves. Our editor
don't amount to much, but paw
said he had a poor chance when he
was boy. He goes without un.

The Farmer Not InIt.

A Western paper says that four
years ago a pound of beef would
buy two rods of barbed wire, and a
bushel of wheat would buy forty
rods. Now one pound of beef will
buy ten feet of barbed wire and a
bushel of wheat will buy twelve
rods. Thus the steel trust raketh
in the shekels and the farmer get
tethIit in the neck.

Crusade Against Profanity ana

crusade Against Profanity and
Slang.
The Rev. s. q. Grove in the Philadel-
phia Inquirer.
A very strong and commendable
crusade is being made at this pres
eat time against profanity. In
many cities and towns of the state
there have been organizations ef-
fected to do away with this careful
and sinful habit.
The evil is widespread and has
not been confined to one class of
persons, and it is high time that
pure speech be the rule among all
classes and that Gods name be
honored and hallowed; that it be
held as sacred and more SO than
that of mother or father, for God
not only demands it, but He is en-
titled to our most heartfelt graft
tude and reverence.
Slang is too prevalent in CONVEX
sation and in song. Even the pull
pit is not altogether free from its
use. Other agencies help to spread
phrases and words which are not OF
the choicest and best character.
