BIG WALK, LITTLE GAME.

Last Saturday, at an early hour in he m0rhing, three well-known work men in the trade, J. E. Barnum, Charles Ridge and Selectnan c. T. Hickok, started for the southern hills nf Bethel, their trip extending down into the big wood in Bedding, where at one time game was plentiful and to be had without asking. Our trio marched three miles or less to get per- mission tO hunt the lime kiln land. They were told to go to the east Of the highway, where they probably would not be molested if they hunted for partridge only. It's a well-known facL that one promlnent citizen owns nearly all the land in that part of Bedding, and he appears to be very choice who hunts. They must be men of good repute, never known to tres pass, etc. Our three friends tramped the hills to their hearts content and brought home one poor little partridge tor their trouble.

spar. When large fortune is not gained
by robbery, by fraud, or by the manipu-
lation of the laws. then l. can be but
boon to the nation. My neighbors pros
perity increases my own and that OF the
earth. Nor do modern fortunes tend to
the increase of luxury. On the contrary
men become more self-denying. L see
no sign of decay in the human race
here The labor question is in process
of solution, and every row Is step
toward this, A iaborer cannot get more
then the product ceases to be made. Nor
can he get much less. because of the ele-
ment Of competition. The labor of today
is not a servant. but a partner of his en-
ployer and their good rests in a mutual
understanding.
But the blot ! see upon our civiliza-
ton is the mere, sing number of divorces.
In the ancient a. tie the supreme import
ance of life Was to increase the import
ance of state. Today the end of life is
the individual good. But the individual
good lies in the prosperity of the family
and 1t is at this the divorce strikes. 1t
not checked it will destroy the family.
1.-The remedy to this. as l see it. is
to realize that matrimony Is q state not
contract and divorce must be stopped.
Divorce strikes at the virtue of our Wom-
en- and this virtue is what preserves the
state. Divorce is the one foul growth
upon our soil. and upon its radiance de-
Ponds the fate of our future.
eff we are to choose between divorces
and polygamy, give us polygamy."

LISTENING AS AN ART.

A good listener is quite as attractive as
of an art in listening as speaking.
Did you ever try and interest any one,
doing your best to keep their attention.
and yet be aware that their thoughts
we're elsewhere? There is nothing that
gives one the feeling of having cold
water poured over them to equal an alb
etracted listener. Then there are those
who interrupt by irrelevant questions,
showing they have not been at all inter-
ested in what You have been saying
Some writer on this subject of the art of
listening says: There are some people,
meaning to be kind, who listen with such
determined, lively, violent attention, that
YOU are at once made uncomfortable, and
the charm of conversation is at an end
Many persons, whose manners will stand
the test of speaking. ~reak down under
the trial of listening"
A good listener is seldom found, when
they are, they should be appreciated.
Quiet respectful attention, a real. not
forced interest in the speaker, and pa
tiont hearing, is what constitutes good
listener.
So we see there are quite variety OF
listeners. some abstracted, others too
eager and excited, and those who are
eager for you to give them an opportun-
tty to combat all you have been saying.
il would be well for many people to prac-
lice the art of listening.
