DEATH PENALTY IN FRANCE.

The violent agitation in Paris over
the action of the French President In
committing the death sentence of a
criminal who had been guilty of a
great atrocity, calls attention again
to the anomalous situation in France
in regard to capital punishment. There
has been strong sentiment existing
in France in favor Of the abolition
of capital punishment, and, while the
French Parliament has not formally
abolished executions by law, the
country is without a public execu-
toner, and the guillotine is practic-
ally relegated. The law still calls
for the execution Of criminals of GER
tain grades, but it specifically pre-
scribes the method of execution by
guillotine, and by the public execu-
toner, commonly known as "Mon-
sieur de Paris" But by some COM
plication no provision has been made
to fill the Office Of public executioner

WHAT THE sp1NNERs THINK.

Amid the general talk of 15-cent
cotton it is interesting to note that
the spinners look with favor on the
claims for higher cotton prices. In
the course of an editorial on this sub
ject Fiber & Fabrics, of Boston, points
out that farmers are better able than
ever before to hold their cotton, and
that country banks are cooperating
to help them. It says:
Although it is improbable that all
of the expectations of the cotton en-
thusiasts will be realized, their points
are, In most cases, well taken and be-
hind their arguments are many facts
that tend toward the belief that cot
ton prices are soon to go consider
ably higher than present quotations.
A comparison shows that prices Of
cotton have advanced cents a pound
during the past year. An advance of
less than cents before all the pres
ent crop is housed is not an unreason-
able proposition unless the balance of
the growing and picking season is at
tend ad by most favorable conditions. y
With everyone concerned holding
the same opinion on this interesting
subject, there should be no cause for
doubts, on the part of the grower

THE HELPFUL WORD.

Gave the young and struggling a

can. You would not leave those
plants In your window boxes without
wafer, nor refuse TO open The shut
ters that the sunhgnt might fail up
on them, but you would leave some
human flower TO suffer from want OF
appreciation or the sunlight of en-
couragemelt. There are a few hardy
souls that can struggle along on stony
Soll-Shrubs that can wall for Lns
dews and sunbeams, vines that climb
without kindly trainlng-but only
few. Utter the kind word when you
can see that 1t is deserved. The
thought that mo one canes and no
one knows : bhghts many bud OF
promise. BE 1t the young artist at
hiseasel, the young preacher in his
pulpit, the workman at his bench, the
boy at his mathematical problems,
or your little girl at the piano, give
what praise you can.-Opalika Post.

RATS.

According to the Department. of
Agriculture, the rat does more dam
age in this country than all other
noxious animals combined. It's ex-
termination would be a blessing to
the race. The female breeds three
OF four times a year and produces
from six to twelve young at once.
Rats destroy grain, ruin dry goods
in shops, eat or. pollute food, carry
contagious diseases thousands of
miles in ships, cause fires and food
ing by gnawing matches and water
pipe, kill young pigs and poultry
strip whole regions of the young of
song-birds and deface the wooden
trim of buildings.
The government does not recon-
mend strychnine or phosphorus to
kill house rats. The former kills
them too quickly, so that odors re-
suit, and the latter causes fires. Bar
ium carbonate is better resource.
1t kills the rats more slowly, so that
they usually leave the house to seek
water. It has neither taste nor smell
to warn them, and in the small guam
titles used does not harm larger ami
mails. Oatmeal mixed with water and
One-eighth its bulk Of this substance

venient way Of using it.
The best rat-traps are those Of the
"guillotine" type, made entirely Of
metal. Wienerwurst or bacon is
good bait. Whatever bait 10 to be
used should be spread for a night
or two before the trap is set.
The cement construction which is
becoming so common for all purposes
is almost rat-proof. This is one of
its strongest recommendationS.-N. Y.

MARRIAGE.

Marriage has in it less beauty, but
more safety than single life; it has
not mere ease, but less danger, it is
fuller of sorrows and fuller of joys;
it lies under more burdens, it is SUP
ported by all the strength of love and
charity, and those burdens ale de.
ightful. Marriage is the mother Of
the world, and preserves kingdoms,
and fills cities and churches and heav-
en- itself. Celibacy, like the fly in
the heart Of an apple, dwells in per-
petual sweetness, but sits alone, and

THE HUMAN WOLF.

The wolf is a dreaded animal be-
cause he MAKES his attacks on help
less ana de1enseIess domestic ANIMALS
uuaer cover of darkness when their
naturaI guardians are off duty or
asleep.
The human wolf is very much like
other varieties of the wild dog FAM
lily. He does his work at night, or
on the sly, he is cowardly and gen
orally picks an easy victim; he is
utterly vicious and has not q single
feeling OF pity or remorse over the
ultimate ruin and degradation of
his victim, or the sorrow and heart
aches of the victim s mother and
friends. In this he is worse than the
enemy Of the shepherd S timid focks,
because he is conscious Of the evil he
Is doing, and his evil work is directed
against the race to which he claims
to belong, The wolf of the woods de-
stroyS his prey TO satisfy his hum
ger; the human wolf destroys his prey
to satisfy the demon that has pos
session of his heart, and to put lit
tie Of the filthy lucre in his pocket to
pay for his daily allowance of drink.
ou often see him about the streets
with little memorandum book en-
tlclng some young man to give him
an order for the worst grade Of rot
ten whisky that the Ballinger market
affords. If the young man has pa
rents that will pay his debts or board
him and allow MIN to squander all
his earnings on his depraved appetite,
it matters not if he is broke and
can't send the cash with the order.
they will take his due-bill, and the
goods will be shipped promptly and
the next noticeable thing is that some
mothers boy is drunk 1t laatters
not TO the wolfsh destroyer that a
good woman's heart is being broken,
and a young life being ruined, God
created being training for a drunk
ard grave or criminal s cell. Ills
fiendish soul is gratified with he ruin
he is causing and his greasy purse is
fattened with the profits of his ne-
farious trade. What do we think 6f
this human wolf? What should we
think of him? That in all the peni-
tentiaries of the commonwealth there
is not criminal more depraved at
heart than he. Some men have the
physical courage to openly destroy
their victim for the wealth on his
person at The risk of their lives. The
human wolf is not so. He does mis-
work in secret and with stealth and
gets the wealth of his victim with
out any risk whatever while he slow
ly destroys his body and leads him
down to shame and endless death.
No drunkard shall enter the king
dom OF heaven" What about The old
fiends that make drunkards of tho
young men and boys Of our town?

abiding place, but the devils them

The Legislature of Wisconsin has
appropriated ten thousand dollars
for the purchase of land at tax sales.
Whatever land any county becomes
possessed of from non-payment of
taxes must be offered to the Public
Land Commissioners before it car
be sold to anybody else. The land
so purchased is to be added to the
State Forest Reserves. In this way
the State can gradually recover land
which it has carelessly permitted to
pass into private hands and be de-
spoiled of its wealth of timber. If
the State had held these timber
lands from the beginning it would
have been immensely better off. 1t
is to be hoped that these denuded
lands will be reforested and that,
therefore, something may yet be
saved out of the wreck.
