The Eagle does not expect to escape
the fate of all who honestly try to tell
the truth without fear or favor To
be misunderstood and misrepresented
by some is the experience OF all who
do this. Readers of the Bible are
familiar with the fact that the pro
phets who spoke only smooth things
were popular while those who spoke
the unwelcome truth were stoned. The
Eagle does not object to honest. manly
criticism but it does protest against
Misrepresentation and the giving un.
warranted interpretations to it's ex
pressions.

About fifty years ago a youth wrote
a valentine to his dulcinea in which
were these lines:
Each warbler woos his gentle mate
And wins her on this joyous day,
With hope each heart is now elate
And love enlivens every lay
But there was on that occasion no
shrieking, bowling blizzard like that

Stones were formed into the shapes
Of beetles by the ancient Egyptians
They regarded the beetle as an en-
blem of immortality, and hence it was
the most popular of all forms of or,

mon stones were commonly buried
with dead persons, and it was custom
airy to engrave upon them the express

happiness, dedications of the soul "a

Heaven help the man who imagines
he can dodge enemies by irving to
please everybody! If such an indi-
Vldual ever succeeded we should be
glad of it-not that we believe in a
man going through the world trying
TO ind beams to knock and thump
MS poor head against, disputing every
mans opinion, fighting and elbowing
and crowding all who differ with him.
That against another extreme. Other
people have right to their opinion
SO you have; don't fall into the error
OF supposing they will respect you less
for maintaining it. or respect Won
more for turning your coat every day

dog was afraid to cross, II would
not pay to turn back, and ford the
stream again, with all those oxen
and the wagon, just to please the
dog; and so anxiety to hurry along
decided them to 60 on and leave the
animal to his fate. -
But Lincoln could not endure the
idea Of leaving the little fellow be-
hind. So he pulled of his boots and
socks, rolled up his trousers. and
waded across the river, the cold wa
ter making his feet and legs ache
terribly. When he got across the
dog jumped up into his face, licking
1t all over.
Lincoln took the little fellow up,
put him under one arm, and carried
him over the stream in triumph. The
dogs frantic leaps of Joy, and other
signs OF gratitude. we'll repaid his
rescuer for the cold wetting and pain
he had suffered. When they got
across the stream Lincoln put on his
socks and boots again, and the 1T
tie dog ran along by MS side, bark
Ing his thanks and leaping up now
and then to lick his hand"
