Here lies, in horizontal position. the
outside case of Geo. Routleigh, watch
maker, whose abilities in that line were
an honor to his profession. Integrity
was the handspring, and prudence the
regulator of all the actions of his life.
Humane, generous, and liberal, his
hand never stopped till he had relieved
distress. So nicely regulated were all
his motions that he never went wrong.

did not know his key; even then he was
so easily set right again. He had the
art of disposing his time so we'll that
his hours glided away in one continual
round of pleasure and delight, till an
unlucky minute put period to his ex-
istence. He departed this life Nov.

GOOD MANNERS, BUSINESS CAPITAL

We are apt to think that if there is
any place where good manners are of
little consequence, it is in every day
business, where cold calculations so
largly takes the place of feeling.
But the truth is that nowhere else
are manners of such Importance as in
every day dealings. There is no capital
and equipment any young man can have
in business that will pay HIM a better
dividend than good manners. There is
no possible calling for which this does
not better fit him.
If he has brains, the world owes him
something, but unless he has good
manners he will have hard time col
lecting it.
Don't make the error of supposing
that brains are everything. You may
have the best set of brains in the town,
but if you haven't also the manners of a
gentleman nobody is going to appreciate
you.
Did you never notice that the men
who employ large forces of intelligent
people look at an applicant closely, ask
a few seemingly unimportantq questions,
and promptly employ or dismiss him?
They don't sound his brain depth; they
don't obtain his biography; they don't
inquire into his social standing; they
size him up from his manners-and if
he is cheap gilt on the surface they
don't look for gold beneath.
The consensus of general opinion is
that the man who goes about with por-
cupine quills as his manners hasn't any
brains worth bothering about. Rich

THE MORNING AFTER.

An, 1t was glorious victoryl" ex-
claimed Mr.. Bildad, looking up over
the morning paper and stirring his
coffee with flourish.
1t was glorious victory. The
grand old party of freedom won a
signal triumph against the hordes of
discomfort and prejudice and hate.
The business interests of the country
are still safe, and those who would
force the American workingman to
complete with the pauper labor of Eu-
rope, and all who want law to do for
them what they are too lazy and worth
less to do for themselves-all the en-
emies of progress and protection and
prosperity have been relegated to the
rear by most decisive"
1--WE are all out of coal, Mr.. Bildad. :"
said Mrs. Bildad in low voice.
Gosh, what's the matter?' howled
Mr.. Bildad. 'Its only two weeks since
we ordered that last ton, and it cost
me dollar more than it did last year"
Eyes, and when asked the price
again yesterday, [ found it had gone up
another dollar"
The internal robbersp' shouted Mr..
Bildad. They've got trust, and in
cahoots with the railroads they are rob-
bing us. IN not stand for it!''
Johnnie must have a new suit,
and can't get one for less than ten
dollars. l could get one for six two
years ago that was better than the ten
dollar one now.'
There it is again! An honest, hard
working man is robbed on all sides bv
these gigantic trusts" howled Mr.. Bill
dad.
"And the freight on that barrel of
apples ma sent us was more than the
apples would have cost here"
''The railroads are running this coun-
try with their.insatiable greed" "groaned
Mr.. Bildad.
1--WE must have sugar, coffee, -four
and butter today my DEAR" said Mrs.
Bildad.
Great Jehoshaphat woman!' roared
Mr.. Bildad. "It seems that the higher
the prices these internal trusts charge
us the more you use. This household
has got to economize or go bankrupt.
L can't stand it much longerl''
"How did you say the election came
out?" queried Mrs. Bildad.
'Ah we won hands downv' exclaimed
MIR. Bildad. "It was glorious victory
for the grand old party. We licked 'em,
lock, stock and barrel. The country is
still safe and"
81 see that the president of the coal
trust, and the manager of the sugar
trust, and all the manufacturers of
clothing, and the railroad magnates
were all supporting your ticket, Mr..
Bildad. Don't you think
Look here, Maria" snarled Mr..
Bildad. Women don't know nothing
about politics, and amt going to sit
here and listen to you babble away on
something you don't know nothing
about"
AS the door slammed and Mr.. Bildad's
footsteps echoed in the distance, Mr. S
Bildad smiled queer little smile and
began reading the society columns of
the morning paper.

THE RESPONSIBLE BIRD.

Prosperity is with US
But it seems little tough
To be always apprehensive,
That there won't be eggs enough.
The apple crops the biggest
In our history, they say,
So the country's bound to prosper
If the hens will only lay.
The eagle sits neglected
And the song bird takes a rest
Our pride is in the barnyard,
lAWhere the pullet seeks a nest.
The tariff? We don't care if
They revise it anyway
Cause we're certain to be happy
If the hens will only lay.

1t is extremely gratifying TO note that
some Of the press of the State, affiat
ing in some degree with United Repub
licans-altbough plainly leaning toward
the church side of the present contro-

there is an unwillingness to recognize

that 1t seems to hold both sides to the

perfectly plain to all men that no sin

themselves, nor for their contentious,
the perfection of infalibility-notw

true that when any controversy arises

that the imposition of that wrong is
accountable for the Inauguration of op.
position against it.
One side is less wrong or more right
than the other; and in such case it
is the duty of citizens to thoroughly
and impartially weigh the facts, and,
discovering the source Of the ill, 10
Immediately apply a proper and efrec-
