all evidence will be in by the last of
this week.
A Canton girl is lucky enough to have
become head nurse at $50 weekly in the
service ofa New York multi millionaire,
who is partial paralytic. She is also,
to have bonus of 81, 900 yearly as long
as she continues in her rich PATIENTS
service.
The following from the German is
equally true in English: At 10, a boy
thinks he knows more than his father.
When he is Is he thinks, "Well, know
just about as much" At 20 he thinks
he knows again as much. When he
comes to be 80 years old he thinks that
he ought to ask his fathers advice some
times. At 40 he thinks that his father
does know little more. Also he looks
for his fathers advice. At 80, when his
father is dead, he comes to the conclu-
sion that there was not smarter man
on Gods earth than his father was.
The Pennsylvania Railroad will pay
full wages, for the time lost, to all of its
employees whe, as members of the
National Guards, were called away from
work by the coal strike. These employ
ees of course were paid by the state al :
30 for the time they were in active SER
vice, and so they will get double pay
for that period. This action by the
railroad company is a practical counter
move to the action of labor union in
declaring against membership in the
guard. The company's policy will do
much to increase the attractiveness of
service in the National Guard.
A western editor writes as follows:
The editor sat in his easy chair, light
ing his pipe on his anburn hair. A halo
shown over his face so fair, but his
knees were out and his feet were bare.
And he sang song both sad and sweet
while the flies died all around his feet,
for he had no grub in his shop to eat,
and the ground was covered with sleet.
Now, what in the world was the cuss to
do? He had eaten the paste and swal-
lowed the glue; he hadn't a drink, he
hadn't chew, and while he stared his
wiskers grew.-And the band played
on.
When the frost is on the window and
the kitchen pail is froze, when the little
icy needles come from every breath
that blows, when chilblains make us
sick and faint, and cold feet give us
pain; it's safe to bet that we all wish for
summer days again. For while we sit
and fume around in gauzy- summer
clothes, it's easy enough to get cooled
everybody knows; but it's different in
the winter when the world is full of ice;
and the weather is as hard as pair o
loaded dice. We may talk about our
climate, and about our spring and fall,
but the balmy days of summer are the
days that suit us all.-Ex.
The happiest man in the world is the
common every day chap who makes his
own living, pays his own bills and has
the respect of his neighbors. He saves
little money as he goes along, but he
doesn't try to get a corner on the local
output, and he is a slave to neither am
bition or society. He never expects to
wear out the seat of his pants in the
senate, and when he slides into his
clothes in the morning he never wastes
anytime trying to pick out the right
tint of soaks, suspenders, and neckties
that will blend with the general effect
He wears "biled" shirt when he feels
like it, and when his pet corn begins to
jump he whips out his jack knife and
cuts four inch cash in the side of his
boot and nothing is said about it in the
papers. He has an appetite like cy.
clone and he never has to sit up nights
to poultice his conscience. He believes
in the doctrine live and let live, and
when he encounters one of the needy
doesn't stutter with his pocket book
The plain plug of man is happy be-
cause he is satisfied and doesn't spend
the best part of his life in yearning for
something about four sizes to large for
him.-Ex.
