4 Mendacious Campaign Charge

In his speech TO the republican state
convention in Massachusetts we find
Secretary Of the Navy Moody making
some statements not consistent with
the facts and his own reputation as q
man Of information. Speaking OF the
democratic state platform demand fol

he contrasted it with the long hours
and the labor OF children not only con
tanned in the platform, bat IN the art
and practice Of the whole democratic
party throughout the south"
It is scarcely to be believed that Sec
rotary Moody could have made such q
statement without knowledge of It's
absolute falsity. Unless he is the pos
SCISSOR CT q "fOTgetter' as convenient
Of service as the one the president
used at Antietam, he must have re
melnbered that he never in his life
read a demand for long hours OF labor
or fol Child labor in any platform ever
adopted by democratic convention in
any state Of the south. We distinctly
challenge him to the proof
Nor can Secretary Moody truthfully
charge that those requirements of Ions
hours and child labor are The art and
practice of the whole democratic party
throughout the south" He calmly is

south at large. LED in every instance

Also, Mr. Chamberlain knows That
he has the United States impaied
upon the higher points OF it's own ar
guments. The high protectlon1sIs
have said that by their policy alone
can the home-market be monopollzed
by the home producer and factor, the
American levels OF high wages ana
high living be maintained, and profits
be made off foreign countries by sell
ing our surplus products in their free
markets for less than their own hands
aud machines can create the like
goods. Mr.. Chamberlain accepts these
statements as rue--congratulates
America for illustrating them to him
and his countrymen-and now urges
the latter to use the same policy
against Americas trust-made cheap
goods and cheap land breadstuffs i'll
order that England and her colonies

Have we thought that more hearts pine
away in secret anguish for the want Of
kindness than from any otile- cause in life ?
Kind words and n o.er.aIt voice are worth
4 great deal more than money, and yet
they are things which all can give, and give
literally. IL they wl!l. And when few
words will make man happy, he must in
decd be a wretch who viii not give them.
IL kindly courtesy were the rule at home
and in social life there would be much
more happiness. Kindness Is like lighting
anothcr's candle at our own. That which
the other gains does not take away any OF
our own light. Kindness is like calm and
peaceful stream that reflects every object
in its just proportions. Kindness tnds ITS
way into hidden reccsses OF the heart. and
brings forth treasures that otherwise would
lie hid. Harshness, OH the contrary, seals
them up forever. Opportunities OF doing
kind acts, if sought for, are forever start
ing up, and it in by words of kindness re-
CURING daily and hourly that affection is
won and preserved. He who negects to
do these trihes. yet boasts that when 4

Make Every Day Count.

The man who starts out in the morning.
with determination to do something dur.
ing the day that will amount to something
that will be distinctive, that viii have in
dividuaiity, tina: will give him satisfaction
at night, Is a great deal more likely not to
waste his day in frivolous, unproductive
work than the man who starts out with no
plan. Begin every day, therefore, with Q
program, and determine that, let what will
come. you will carry it out as closely 40
possible. Follow this up persistently, day
after day, and you will be surprised at tho
result.
Make up your mind, at the very outset Of
the day that you win accomplish some
thing. that you will not allow callers to
chip away your time. and that you will not
permit the little annoyances OF your busi-
ness to spoil your days work. Make up
your mind that you will be larger than the
triHes which cripple and cramp mediocre
lives. and that you will rise above petty
annoyances and Interruptions and carry
out your plans in large and commanding
way. Make every day Of your life count
for something, make IL ten IN the grand
