An exchange thinks "ladies should
take off their hats in church. No preacher
can inspire man when he is looking in

sinner feel lost in the wilderness"

Who weeps with you when you are
sad, and laughs when you are glad, and
smiles with you when you are mad-the
editor. Who has to be both kind and
wise and never thardly ever lies. and
when he does creates surprise the edi-
tor. Who owns heart as well as cheek,
possessed OF spirit, proud yet meek, and
lives on 40 cents week-the editor.
Newspapers are forbidden by postal

"game of chance" or to advertise the
same. This information, which has al
ready been made public several times,
is repeated for the benefit of persons
who, no having knowledge of this law,
send in "news items" in regard to such

printed. This, from an exchange, ap-
plies AS well to one printing Office as an

1t is rumored as far away as James
town, N. Y, that Joseph G. Sibley will
again go to congress from the Venangc
district. 1t is alleged that the nomina'
ton of Mr.. Wheeler last year was a po
litical accident. How do those gallant
young Forest county politicians like the
taste of this particular lemon? They
never dreamed that their ingeniously
laid trap in that nominating convention
was an accident. And neither did anyone
else.-Titusvile Herald. Forest count,
people are not at all concerned abon
what some folks are pleased to term al
accident. They put their best foot torwart
and their candidate won out on his merits
~ will be abundantly evident before Mr.
wheeler's present term is half ended.
