Chesley Jones left last week

The infant child of Ernest

Mrs. Jack Morris, who has
been visiting here for the past
two weeks has returned to her
home in Louisville.

misfortune of cutting one of his
feet, a week or so ago, is able to
walk again.

tored, uniformed men whose
rugged integrity and native un-
polished honor, measure up with
the first citizens of the land.
there are others more fortunate
in the advantages of education
who have used their knowledge
and skill for unholy and disgrace
full purposes. But these are the
exceptions and not the rule. And
while we would not argue that
criminality is always the result
of illiteracy, we do say that eX-
perience has amply shown that
the border lines of these two
qualities run dangerously near
together. Nothing is more evil
dent than that the development
of the mind is the fortification of
the soul, rendering man stronger
in resistance, and his character
more impregniable to temptation.

nighted nations and wicked ma

boast of few criminals must

Education and Crime.

Facts, it has been long said,
are stubborn things. And the
statistics present a few on the
character of criminals that it is
hard to get around. More than
four-fifths of the law breakers
now in European prisons are
comparatively illiterate. In our
own country less than ten per
cent of the citizenship are spok-
en- of as illiterate, and yet to
this are traceable three-fourths
of the crimes committed by the
entire population. The great
majority of offenders brought in
to our criminal courts are unin-
formed men Of coarse habits and
rough breeding. Not only is it
the history Of nations that the il
literate classes are responsible
for the great bulk of crime and
lawlessness, but as a matter of
intelligent reflection. No I'M
predjudiced mind can presume it
to be otherwise. A great many
crimes are committed through ig-
norance and a vastly larger num-
Der because the finer sensibilities
Of the culprit have never been
developed. Strong minds as a
rule steer clear of criminality.
We would not be understood to
say that all educated men are
good men and all illiterate men
bad. We are well informed
that there are some homes untu-

HONE SWEETEHOME.

0OCII SWIL I1OTII.
Whether it be a money king
in his mansion with the weight
of his millions on his heart; OF
the pauper in his hut with the
wolf at the door, the recollec-
tions of early childhood light
en- the burden of life and soothes
it's sufferings. The green fields
and swirling streams around the
old homestead where the light
hearted boy once hunted the
Mollie Cottontail in the clover or
fished for trout in the darkening
eddies, or shouted and sang and
tumbled in the air like a straw
hat in a cyclone, are painted on
my brain in colors that never
fade; and the shady lanes, mel
odious with red birds and armo-
rious with doves, where he held
his first sweewheart's girlish
hand in his and poured out his
soul in silence, bloom and sing
on the dusky bowers of harmony
till death stills the weary heart
and bushes the sighs and storms
of mortal life forever.
The man may wander to the
end of the earth and meet new
friends on the way; he may rise
to wealth and glory, or fall to
degradation, yet the very memo
ry of paternal love and watchful-
ness which guarded the thought
less boy and shielded him from
harm, never ceases to beckOn his
spirit back to the happy fireside
of the blessed past, and in every
word of his mothers unforgotten
prayer he hears the rustic of an
angels wing. Nothing sweetens
the sorrows of our ripper years
like the memory of happy child
hood. The man who wounds the
hearts of his Children with frowns
and cruel words, or stagers into
the doors of his home with blows
and curses, is a murderer a
murderer of laughter and love
and happiness.
The woman who deserts her
home for the hollow pleasures of
social world, or neglects her in
nocent and helpless children for
any reason, is a robber and un-
worthy the name of mother.
The poorest laborer who turns
his hovel into a palace of happi-
ness for his children is a better
citizen than the richest tyrant
who converts his palace into a
hovel of wretchednesS and fear
for those whom God has COM
mitted to his care.
The monumental fool, and enemy
of all that is noblest and best in
life, is he who destroys the joy
and peace of his own sweet home.
If paradise ever descends to
earth again and angels tread

4 Word to Advertisers.

Some business men have an
idea that handbills and dodgers
are superior to newspapers as ad-
vert'sing mediums. Hand bills
are good in their wa Y rs auxiliar-
ies, but they are no more to be
compared to the advertising col
uinns of Il newspaper says the
Dauville Advertiser, than push
cart peddler on Broadway is to be
compared with John Wauamaker's s
great emporium. The peddler at.
tracts attention for moment il
he be an expert, but the great
store rivets the eve and loosens
the purse strings of those whose
trade is worth having. The hand
bill is crumplea in the hand and
soon thrown aside. The news
paper is carried home, read and
reread and fled away. There is
something besides the advertising
there entertainment. information
beside which it is placed. Ad-
rcrt.sements are read now more
than ever before, sometim-s be-
fore what is. commonly called
news, for advertisements are some-
times the latest and most vital
news, vital TO every day LIE.
The head lines of an ad can be
made as attractive as the head
lines of wedding feast. The
buainess mAn who talks to the
readers of a newspaper as he
talks to the customer in his store,
is ths one who wins. Use the
hand bills aud posters if you wish

turns liz the columns of the favor
