Npuch Money Invested.

From time to time the Scientific
American issues special numbers de-
voted to one particular subject, which
is treated with the fullneSs that we
have come to expect from this publi-
cation. The last of these special num-
berS, which has just been issued, is
devoted to "MOdern Aids to Print
ing" 1t presents in most attrac-
tive way information about an art
which plays an important part in the
daily life of the people, but of which
very little, if anything, is popularity
known. The astounding proportions
which the printing industry has reach
ed in this country may well be con-
ceived, when it is considered that in
1900 the value of the finished product
of the printing press was S347, 600, 900.
The total capital invested was $780,
517,O72. In this particular number
the editors have taken care to describe
what has been done within recent
years in a manner which will surely
be understood by the general public.

charge to the grand jury was along the

on the violation of the election laws,
the buying and selling of votes, and
said the man who bought the vote
was no better than the poor devil who
sold. He urged the jury to look into
this matter and return indictments
against every guilty party. Follow

After the depot robbery. reported
elsewhere in this issue, Jim concluded
to catch the thief. He suspicioned a
"Chute" negro, named Anderson SUIT
ton, known as "Ugs." Obtaining sew
eral clews Mr. Hamilton "invited"
Ugs to his Office. and boldly accused
him Of the crime. Ugs concluded to
run bluff, jumping up used insulting
language to Hamilton and threatened
to pull gun. Jim quickly hit the
negro a blow which sent him to the
floor, knocking him down repeatedly,
finally proceeding to "Oeat the face
off" the coon. This had the desired
effect, and Ugs not only confessed to
the depot robbery, but said he was the
duck who tried to enter BatsOn's store
a few nights ago, and told all about
that devilment. Ugs is now in jail,
doubtless packing his trunk for an ex-
tended visit to ''friends" i'm the Frank

Don't Be Disagreeable.

CheerfulneSS is duty one owes to
ones self as well as to ones neighbOrs,
for nothing units one for the Ordina-
ry duties of life, or so quickly brings
on premature old age, as mOrOse
temper, says the Brooklyn Eagle.
There are plenty of artificial aids to
cheerfulness within the reach of every
one who has real or imaginary cause
for Ill humor or congential tendency
to surlinesS. When things don't 60
right, or our lives is guilty of neglect
of duty, strive Systematically to
achieve good humOr by repeating over
and over the best funny stories or bits
of humorous poetry you know. If
conscientiOusly administered this pre-
scriptiOn is an infallible remedy for
the most acute fit of blue devils. If
you doubt, just try the experiment.

The Wheat Acreage.

A meeting of leading mill men and
grain dealers representing nearly every
grain producing section of the State,
was held at Louisville Thursday after
noon. The object of the meeting,
which was called by Allen Earring, of
Richmond, KY, was to ascertain as
near as possible the acreage of wheat
planted in Kentucky this year, and to
hear reports as to the general condl-
tiOn of the crop over the State. From
reports given by those in attendance
it appears that about an average acre.
age of wheat has been planted, and
that the crop is generally in good con-
dition so far. Those who attended the
meeting had been requested by letter
some weeks ago to inform themselves
as to wheat acreage and to the cOndi-
tiOn of the crop

Think of This.

Did you ever think of the fact that
dollar sent out of town is forever
lost to this community? Did you ev-
er think of the fact that the dollar
you send away was made off sOmeLan-
caster man? Did you ever think of
the fact the money spent in Lancaster
remains among your friends, and that
you will have another chance to make
il back? Did you ever consider the
fact that if you "gO broke" and want
to ask for credit for sugar and coffee,
or suit of clothes. that you will have
to ask Lancaster man to accOmmO-
date you? Did you ever think of the
fact. that if you steal something, you
will ask the Lancaster paper to say
nothing about it, or if you die you
want the Lancaster paper to say you
were the best man on earth? If you
will think of these things in their true
light, as plain facts, you will certainly
resolve to stand up for your town, and
obey the command. "LOve thy neigh
Dor as myself" There are few bus
mess (?) men in Lancaster, who should
have branded, in tie most apprOpri-
ate spot on their body, the state mot

fall" Possibly you have good pay
ing position now, or have cash ito
your credit" "Oh, well, l don't ask
the community any odds, 1 can pay
for what get and go where BANKED
please" Yes, possibly that is so, but
men have lost their jobs, and men have
lost their money, and when they do
hit the earth, they do so with the
"dull thud" you read Of at hangings.
Better treat every body right, act up
on the square, and If you do meet with
reverses you will have friends who
will help you to pull out. This is a
little "Thankseiving" advice over
which you will have time to ponder
today.

Advice to Country BOYS.

Young man, do not take up the STU
dy of medicine or law unless you are
certain that you are fitted for carving
out for yourself brilliant future in
that profession. About 1880 medi-
cal graduates are being turned out by
colleges each year, while there is need
of only about $500, according to one
of our most distinguished practiciOn-
ers. Better stay at home on the farm,
where brain, Drawn and energy will
always win it's own record. The we'll
to do farmer of today is the most in
dependent man on the green fOOtStOCl

A crowd of gentlemen, sitting in
McROberts' drug store were talking
about hunting, when the way the
game is slaughtered came up. None
could understand why some hunters,
those who claim to be spOrtsmen, too,
would continue to shoot and kill every
bird or rabbit in sight after he had a
mess" 1t certainly is strange why
this wholesale desire to slaughter pre-
walls, why a man wants to completely
exterminate every bird or animal COM
ing in sight. Some men frequently
shoot down rabbit and leave it lay
there, when some poor fellow who
needs the rabbit for meat could come
along and profit by killing it. You
frequently hear hunters brag about
killing fifty or seventY-five birds,
when in fact they should be ashamed
of it. While this spirit continues, of
course game will be scarce.
