When hanging pictures people often
spoil their walls by driving in nails
haphazard, only to find the nails bend
because they are being hammered
against bricks. The right method is
to pierce the wall with a darning needle
to find. the crevice between the bricks
and then drive in the nail. -

The Waxahachie daily light. [volume] (Waxahachie, Tex.) 1894-current, 1904-07-21

At conference of the board Of
directors this morning it was decid-
ed to make additional efforts to stop
the noise in the rear of the auditO-
rum and Just outside during the
night programs. A member of the
board stated to the Light that while
he believed the bad order was due
more TO thoughtlessness than intent
to disturb, that il was nevertheless
nuisance to those who came TO
hear, and would be stopped If dras-
tic measures were required to do it,
H stated that seats bad been pro-
vided in different parts of the park
for those who desired TO talk. and
those conversational inclined
would be expected to use them, or at
least keep quiet when in the audi
torium or seated near it. Most OF
the disturbance, this gentleman said
came from those seated on the en-
bankment surrounding the audi
torium, and was communicated to
those on the rear seats, finally
reaching all parts of the vast hall.
The Light trusts that good order will
prevail and that the board will not
be under the necessity of dealing
harshly with any one.

Judge Parker's manly express
sion of confidence in the people
of the south will be violently as
sailed by the negrophiles of the
north, but that ought to make it
appeal all the more powerfully to
us. Judge Parker is not trim
ming. 1t is certain that he is not
catering to the black balance of
power in the doubtful states, be-
cause if he had been he would
have remained quiet upon that
subject, or given forth some
iequivocal message that would
have given no offense to the ne
grophiles. The fact that at the
very opening of the campaign he
should give out this manly and
just estimate of a people whom it
is popular in certain quarters to
caluminate and slight, shows the
robust manliness of the man, his
courage and his innate sense of
fairness and justice. This bold
utterance will convert many
thousands of fairminded, justice
loving Americans to the support
of Judge Parker, and it ought to
enable him to sweep the south
like whirlwind, in spite of the
Vaccinations of those who en-
deavor so assiduously to under
mine his influence.-N. o. Daily

Edvice to Marriageable Girls.

We rise to make plain talk on
theme that is big in the thought
of the girl. The theme is man
and the choice of a 1ife-mate for
maid. The dear young thing
will bear in mind that a freak
hat" a foul pipe, tan shoes,
shaped like grown hams, and a
pair of fierce socks do not, of
need, go to make up the best sort
of man to tie to. The scarf and
the vest, their check, tint, or
noise do not take place in the
worth of the brute who must
soon or late serve the soft sex.
1t is to say, then, that the buds
make the dude, but do not make
the real man. The girl who
thinks dude is all right is not
the girl we wish to talk to in this
line. For those who like that
sort of dude is all right. The
maid who seeks, as is right, real
JOY in life with a man; the maid
who has the heart to make a
home a place of bliss, will pass
by the one who thinks of dress
and shine and style more than he
thinks of the worlds call on
mind or heart. A good man to
tie to is the man who thinks first
of all of his job and of his stand
in the town. The staid, safe,
true, plain, square, white-brow-
ed, clear-eyed, pure-tipped young
man is the boy to place bets on
in the home game or in such
game as one may choose.

To an old Confederate, or to
any one who has read the history
of the war between the States, il
is almost amusing to read in the
dispatches from the East that
General Kuropatkin actually has
Il his disposal not more than
10000 men," and that he lin.
tends to avoid battle until he
has sufficient forces" When we
think of what General Lee would
have accomplished with 10000
Confederates, or what havoc
StOnewall Jackson would have
caused with one-third Of that
number, we can but be surprised
either at the fighting qualities OF
the Japanese or the incompetency
OF their enemies.

HOOP OF the Year..

Our idealsl God bless theml
1t may require years to realize
them; it may take struggles
enough to break the human heart
to find them. Life, though, would
be but dreary desert without
them. Ever coaing, ever plead
ing, step by step we reach out in
the wilderness for the wild flow
ers on the edge just above us.
Often the heart turns callous and
bitter when our feet slip from
under us as we stretch out our
trembling hands for what seems
the unobtainable. The human
being without an ideal is the thorn
thrust upon the world, but often
diSappointments force us to aban-
don them in the search. How
often we think that we reach the
ledge where the flowers bloom,
the upper landing, and think we
clasp the idealistic figure in our
arms, but the vacuum is there,
and on ahead in the dim light of
new levels another stairway looms
up, and on the second ledge
dances the fair white form of
life's ideal, reckoning and smiling
with irresistible persuasion.
Il will not come" he cries.
"You are vain phantom, elusive,
impossible, unreal. You shall
mock me with your airy nothing
ness no longer. Delude others if
you will, but you shall no longer
de1ude me, for here l build my
house and here 1 stay all the rest
of my life."
This man turns his back on the
vision and establishes himself
there on the level, and all the re-
mainder of his life he SCOTS at
ideals. All who climb to his level
and press on to follow the vision
higher he greets with sneering
cries of:
Fool! Fool! to follow a vain
shadow, an idle phantom! You
will find your ideals only a
troublesome delusion, as 1 didl"
But another will not be him
dered nor discouraged. He press
es on with burning eyes and pant
ing breath toward the vision-up
the second stairway; yes, and a
third and a fourth. To the end
of life he is climbing still, follow
ing the vision with a steadfast
gaze and faith as strong as when
he first hoped to touch her at
single step.
And in the end, only in the end,
does the yearning in his eyes turn
to the bliss of satisfaction, and
the longing in his heart to the Joy
of possession, for in the end he
hears the flutter of her garments
and feels the sweetness of her
breath, and 10! She is bending
over him, pressing her warm lips
to his brow, and looking with her
shining eyes into his pleading
ones.
"You are worthy" she whis-
pers, for you followed on. Hence
forth, for you, the Ideal is the
Real"
But the man down there on the
prosy level of the first landing
knows nothing of all this.

Mr.. John d. Rockefeller says
that he and his wife attended a
a church for eighteen years with
out soul ever saying a word OF
welcome to them. He thinks
that if there were more sociabili-
ty in the churches, if more cor
diality were shown towards
strangers and they were made
to feel that they were welcome,
it would be better for all parties
concerned.
The lack of sociability in
church congregations is most to
be noticed in the cities. 1t hard
ly exists in, the country districts.
AT the country church the stran-
ger is morally certain to receive
attention, whether he or she be
a casual visitor or newly arriv-
ed resident of the community.
Introductions all around and in
vitations to dinner are the COM
mon order at the country church,
and the pastor usually makes it
point to shake hands with as
many persons as possible after
the service is over. In the cities
things are somewhat different.
Still, there are city churches
that have their regular corps of
hand-shakers whose business it
is to give the "glad palm" to eve
ry stranger that comes within
the doors. But often it occurs
that the stranger doesn't care
for the hand-shake and the as
surance of welcome. There are
men and women of the buttoned-
up kind who are distinctly averse
to being :"patfoHized, :" as they
call it, even to the extent of be-
ing assured that they are well
come. They prefer to have their
circle of church acquaintance
develop out of circumstances,
leaving it to themselves to choose
with whom they will be on so
much as church-friendly terms.
For this reason it is somewhat
difficult to foretell how stran-
ger will be impressed with the
approaches of the hand@shakers
on behalf of the church; whether
they will be repealed or drawn
closer. AS great a variety of hui
man nature attends at church as
at the theater.
Meanwhile the question arises, !
why should one especially desire
to be assured of a welcome at
church? The services are re-
ligious and devotional. They |
are in no sense social functions.
Their purpose is the worship of
God, not the making of acquain-
tances and friendships. They
are held in Gods house, and He
has extended His welcome to the
whole world. That ought to be
for the devout worship
per who goes to the house of
God with a heart lifted above the
conventionalities of earth and fill
ed with love of and gratitude to-
wards the great Master of the
universe.-Savannah News.

Heavy Snow Predicted

The old residents of this section of
oregon predict that snow in plenty
VIII fall within the next few months.
They base their predictions upon the
TACT that the present fall weather is
almost identical with that of the wear
in which the double winter" occur
red, now nearly 20 years ago. That
year the fall was a long dry one, with
heavy fogs during the early part of
December, On about the goth of De-
cember snow began to fall, and It
remained until late in February, to
be followed 10 days later by another
snowstorm.
That was the year in which the
great losses in stock occurred, but a
repetition of those disasters is not
feared as they resulted from the lack
of hay, the range being good and little
preparation being made in those days
for feeding stock.-Crook County
