LOCAL PAPER.

A local newspaper is absolutely nee
essary to any community. 1t is the
horne paper that keeps the people of
the community in touch with each 9TH
er by giving them all the news of their
own neighborhood and county. For
that alone they are of value and worth
far more than the small subscription
price. They keep the local pride and
progressive spirit aroused and in vari-
GUS ways are worth far more to a COM
munity than a community ever spends
on them. The daily paper, with it's
large news service and quicker facili-
ties, may in some instances overshadow
the weekly, but the weekly home pa
per fills place in the hearts of the
people that a daily cannot fill. 1t

and some other folks have to Guilt

TATT0OING.
IL Seems to Have Originated In Early
Religious Customs.

What is the Fin Of tattooing?
Religion, which la% - much power
over peoples and " ch proves so
obstinate in preserving ancient Gus
toms, has certainly contributed to
maintain it among the more barba-
rous pert 81 our population. We
see quasi Official proof of it at
Lorette. Those who cultivate de-
votion for saint believe that by
engraving his image on their flesh
they will give him a proof, clear
testimony, Of tlleir love. We know
that the Phoenicians marked the
sign of their divinity on their fore
heads (Ewald, Judaischen Alther-
thum, ill. In the Marshall islands
they have to ask the permission of
the gods to tattoo themselves, and
the priests alone in New Zealand
perform the office of tattooing
(Scherzer). Lubbock adds to this
that a woman who does not wear
tattoo mark cannot enjoy eternal
felicity. The women of Britain tat
tooed themselves in obedience to re-
igion (Pliny, 33).
The second cause is the spirit of
imitation. A Lombard soldier an
swered me laughingly one day when
| rallied him on his having spent
small sum to spoil his arm. "See,
monsieur, we are like sheep, and
when one of us does anything we all
initiate him at once, even if we risk
doing ourselves harm" Love of
distinction also has its influence. A
thief of the most incorrigible sort
who had six brothers tattooed like
himself implored me, although he
was half covered with the oldest
tattoo marks, to find him a profess
sional tattooer to complete what
might well be styled the embroidery
of his skin. when the tattooing
is very curious and spreads all over
the body" he told me, 'it is to us
other thieves ike the black coat of
society with decorations-the more
we are tattooed the more we esteem
one another; the more a person is
tattooed the more influence he has
over his companions. On the con-
trary, one who is not tattooed has
no influence. He is regarded simply
as good fellow and is not esteemed
by his company."-London Chron-
icle.

The dentist was at no time re-

occasion he handled his instruments

much like unnecessary roughness.
With her blue eyes blazing with
wrath, she bore the torture as long
as she could, but a badly aimed turn
of the drill finished her. Leaping
from the dental chair, she tore the
rubber dam from her swollen coun-
