Letter to T. E.. Moody.

Dear Sir: Your business is, when a
house burns down, to give the owner
some money to build a new one. 1t
is a good business. Queer that the
world got on sc long without it.
We paint the n that burns down
and the new one, too. What is better,
we paint the house that don't burn
down.
You insure the houses that burn;
we insure the house that DON'T You
have the ashes and smoke; all the
houses r ours.
We. paint lead-and-zinc; DevOe.
We sell the paint to painters; we
don't paint.
Lead-and-Oil is the old fashion
paint. Devoe is zinc ground in with
lead and linSeed oil: the best paint in
the world; and the cheapest, because
it takes fewer gallons than mixed
paints and it wears twice as long as
lead and oil. Nobody wants poor
paint; there's lots of it, though, in
the world.
A. NJ. Griffin, Plainfield, NJ, writes:
Mr.. Aaron Higgins, of Plainfield,
always used 10 gallons Of mixed paint
for his house. Last spring he bought
Is gallons of Devoe and had 4 gallons
Yours truly.
f. w. DEVOE, New York.

Raise the Standard High.

More than that l have a daughter
She is the dearest thing on earth
to me, but 1 had rather stand at hel
bier, gaze into her paid face and kiss
her cold lips goodbye for awhile than
to see her marry a drunkard."
To the thoughtlesS young man and
young lady these words, uttered by
Mr.. Hawks in his lecture Saturday
night, sound like mere sentiment, but
there are thousands of parents in this
country who, in choosing for their
daughters, would gladly choose the
grave. Dead, her memories would
meet them in the happy face, spark
ling eyes and buoyant form. AS a
drunkard'S wife they would meet in
reality the drawn, anxious face and
haggard form, and hear the cry Of mis-
cry and the sigh of neglected love.
Young ladies, be careful!
If men will risk their lives and sac
rifice home and friends for you.-yea,
if they will even plunge the dagger of
anguish in a mothers heart to win
the affections Of yours-they can also
be sober and pure to win you.
Can a young man be sober?
1t is the easiest thing on earth il he
is man enough to deserve the hand
and heart of a pure chaste young wo-
man.
Can a young nan be pure?
Certainly he can. He can be pure
in his conversation, in his thought, in
his habits. His character ought at
least to be as spotleSs as yours. You
m ust raise the standard and force him
to it.
None suffer more from a low stand.
ard than wOmanhOOd.
1t is a fact to be deeply deplored
that there is ar element of young wo.
manhood who encourage gambling, |
drinking and unchaSte and impure |
of life.
The meaneSt man on earth, il he |
has a spark of manhood left, will look
for purity and virtue when he wants
marry, and he too often finds them.1
Raise the standard and the men
will go to it.-Houston Post.

The man and woman who try to

EN- off the enjoyment of our own little

tunity that comes our way, instead of
longing for the things that come our

The following OratOrical gem is sale
to have fallen from the lips OF Hon.
w. j. Bryan. 1t is not only a beau.
tiful word painting of immortality,
but contains much good food for
thought:
IF the Father designs to touch
with divine power the cold and pulse
less heart of the buried acorn and
make it burst forth from its prison
walls, will He leave neglected the soul
of man, who was made in the image
of his creator? II He so stOops to
give to the roSebush, whose withered
blossoms float upon the autumn
breeze, the sweet assurance of another
Springtime, will He withhold the
words of hope from the souls of men
when the froSts Of winter come? If
matter, mute and inanimate, is
changed by the force Of nature into a
multitude OF forms that neve die,
will the spirit suffer humiliation
after it has paid a brief visit like a
royal guest to this tenement Of clay?"
One wiser than Bryan has said:
And whatsoever liveth and .believeth
in me shall never die," Because l
live We shall live Also" "And Jesus
said unto her, / am the resurrection
and the life; he that believeth on me,
though he were dead, yet shall he
live" Because ! live ye shall live
also"
1t is u opinion that the new year
ought to begin with spring. That
sweet, fresh budding season, when
the spirit of newnesS is just awaking
from its long sleep and begins with
magic power it's work Of revival,
breathing new life and energy into
every vein of nature and thrilling the |
heart OF mankind with new joys, new
hopes, new aspirations. The soul that
can remain inSensible To the charm of
spring is indeed dull and heavy, even
unnatural. Hawthorne says, From
such a soul the world must hope no
reformation OF its evil, no sympathy |
with the lofty faith and gallant strug-
giles Of those who contend in his be-
How jOyously the birds are
this morning and why should
they not, for the blight and decay Of
winter is passing away, and ere long
the earth will be arrayed in the full
bloom and glory of springtime. Al
ready the air, SO soft and balmy, bears
the fragrance OF delicate blossoms,
and the drowsy bees murmer of new
born delights. Bryant says In his
poem on THE Gladness OF Nature"
Is this a time to be cloudy and sad,
our Mother Nature laughs around
even the deep blue heavens look
glad
And giadness breathes from the blossoming
~ground?"
Surely our hearts should respond to
he gladness OF nature, and we should
rot only be glad, but we should feel
thankful for all these blessings. !

ORE SHIPMENTS
 RESUMED TO SHANNON

ore shipments from the Shannon mine were resumed yesterday, says the Copper Era. The fire which de- stroyed the head gear of the tram way occurred on the 18th instant The cable and the cars were destroy ed by the fire. hence on the morning of the fire the telegraph wires were used in order to ascertain where they could be replaced in the short est possible time. The cable was bought in the east and brought to Fl Paso by express. while the ore cars were made in Fl Paso, and ar rived on the same train with the cable. The management deserves credit for the remarkable short time in which these serious damages ~erd repaired. The concentrating plan! was closed down for a few days, but the smelter and converting plants were kept commission all the time. Some concentrates were secured from Cananea, which with the ore on hand and that received from the New England was sufficient 10 keep the plant going.

SATISFACTORILY ARRANGED, 4

During the past week there have been whisperings of a threatened la Dor strike in the Clifton Morenci dis, trict. Word was brought from Cliff ton and Morenci that July had been agreed upon for walk-out from the mines and smelters unless the com. panies conceded a demand for in creased wages ..g
 The following from the Clifton Cop per Era is gratifying in that it tells of an amicable agreement and settle ment of the trouble at Clifton:
 "The Era understands that the labor differences in Clifton have been ar ranged satisfactorily to all parties in terested, hence there will be no strike on the first, as was threatened. The men asked that their hours of labor be reduced from twelve to eight which was granted by the manage ment of the A. c. company, with a re duction in wages of twenty-five cents.
