Atchison Globe: When par

children's grandparents may APP
prove, but you bet the police
judge doesn't. A police Judge
in ST. Joe yesterday went out of
his way to administer a singing
rebuke to parents. He said that
every case of bad boy coming be-
fore him could be TRACED to over
indS1gent parents, or to parents
who are neglectful of their duty
He is of the opinion that when
children are bad, local authori-
ties should hold the parents to
account and bring them before
the bar of justice. And why
isn't that a good idea?

Man born of woman is of few
days and full of prunes," sayeth
the Marysville Advocate Demo-
GRAFT. He goeth forth upon the
street seeking what female he
may devour. AT last he findeth
her and asketh her to marry him.
She cOnSenteth and from that
minute forward his troubles be-
ginneth. He laboreth night and
day to raise the wherewithal to
procure his marriage license.
After he has paid the preacher
for joining them together he set
teth about trying to get rid of
the burden he has hung around
his neck His wife weepeth and
the children cry loud and long
for bread. At last driven to des-
peration he seeketh the saloon to
drown his sorrows. Finding
the saloon he Swalloeth the fiery
monster until his brain is on fire
and he imagineth he is million
aire He cometh not from under
his deluSion until his brain be-
ginneth to clear and his wife
aSketh him for twelve dollars to
buy new Easter bonnet. This
is the straw that breaketh the
cancels back and he again seek
eth the saloon. There he is
thrown into bad company and he
starteth on a downward career
which endeth not until he has
reached depth six feet beneath
the clay from which he sprang,
his body lying in an easterly and
westerly direction, his arms fold
ed across his noble breast, his
toes pointing toward the daisies,
and beer key at his head for a
monument to mark the resting
place of him who did his best to
make Milwaukee famous Woe

education when you were young,
you are not barred from partici

Atchison Globe; Two men are
engaged in business in Atchison,
as partners. One of them often
goes across the street and gets a
drink. The other remains at his
post and is becoming dissatisfied.
Here is prediction. In few
months the sober man will be
alone, and the other man will be
on his uppers. In ten years the
sober man will be rich and the
other man will be in the gutter.
The man who goes out after sew
eral drinks every day knows
what is coming to him; when he
reaches the gutter, he should
have the manhood to confess
that he is to blame. He may
claim now that he is working
up trade" when he goes out after
a drink The men who control
the largest business concerns of
Atchison did not reach the front
rank by buying beer for custom
ers. That is a notion, the trade
you buy with a glass of beer is
not worth having.

way to get money and springs this on
its subscribers, In view of the alarm
ing news that the earth may soon be
destroyed by comet, this paper calls
the attention of few delinquent sub
scribers to the fact that they should be
prepared for the worst by paying up
their accounts and for year in adj
vance, so that they may be able to
meet such calamity with clear con-
science, which they can never do if
they owe the printer. Do not forget
that the time for preparation is now
quite brief, besides we need the money
to square up few things ourselves.
