If THE TRUTH WE'RE TOLD.
A Few Paragraphs About People When
Dead and Alive.

II Is easy TO prove that the truth
should not be spoken at all times. Sup
posing, for instance, that the news
papers, instead of publishing the usual
obituary notices concerning the well
known and respected citizen who
leaves a wide circle of friends" were
to set forth the plain truth in some
such style as this:
Henry G. Oldham died yesterday at
the palatial residence which he was
able to build with money that he made
by giving short weight to his custom
ers and grinding his employees down to
the lowest notch. The community is
distinctly better off with this mar out
of the way. and it is expected that his
funeral will be attended by a large and
enthusiastic crowd Of citizens"
Or it might be something like this:
THE Hon. Thomas Q. Boggs died
suddenly yesterday afternoon OF heart
failure. Mr.. Boggs twice misrepresent-
ed this district in congress, having
succeeded in pushing himself to the
front by shameless and corrupt
methods He was known to have brib-
ed people when ever it suited his con-
venience TO do so, but owing to the
power of the political machine which
he controlled it was never possible TO
secure his CONJUNCTION. Mr.. Boggs
died rich, having made his money as a
boodler and spokesman. The immed-

that he was a kind father and a devot,
ed husband, but the public Is to be con-
graduated upon the fact that he has
bought his last vote
Here is another style Of obituary no

and the truth only had to be printed:

THE MODERN PRAYER.

Jesus lover of my soul
Give me 95 per cent.
While the money in doth roll
I'll be filled with sweet content.
Hide me, oh, my Savior, hide,
While | make the dollars fast,
Safe unto my safe they'll guide,
You'll receive the poor at last.
Other refuge have | none,
Save my bonds and notes for me,
While | skin each poor mans son,
For support I'll look to thee.
All my trust in thee is stayed
To my mortgages I'll cling;
Fol- my scheme is neatly played,
Meath the shadow of thy wing,
Plenteous grace with thee Is found,
Let new vicams now drop in.
Let them each with cash abound,
Make, oh, make for me more ton.
Thou of life the fountain art,
Let me draw long life from thee,
Plate with gold my marble heart;
Count my gains eternally.
