EPlEPTC ASYLUM.

The Epileptic asylum at GallipoEs,
Ohio, may be set down as one of the
greatest institutions in that State.
Though located there only a few
years ago, wonderful work has beer
done in buildings and the grounds
have been SO improved and beauti6ed
that the lawns, walks and evergreens
are second to none anywhere. The
cottages are kept in the cleanest
condition, the attendants are polite
to visitors, the patients are well cared
for and it is a pleasure to visit this
institution. We sometimes think
that citizens of Gallipolis do not APP
preciate or realize the beauties of this
grand home for the unfortunate.

HOW. RHAT ARE WE 10 DO.

Editing newspaper is nice
thing. five publish jokes people
say We are rattle Drained. five
don't We are fossils. If We publish
original matter they say We don't
give them enough selections. If We
give them selections they say We are
too lazy to write. If edon't 90 to
church We are heathens. If We do
go We are hypOcrites. five remain
at the Office We ought to be looking
for news items. five go out then
We are not attending to business. If
We wear. old clothes they laugh atus.
If we wear good clothes they say we
have pull. Now, what are We to
do: Just as likely as not some one
will say that we stole this from an
exhanse, So We did.
