Stopping the Paper.
Freeport Journal.)

N'ANSpoiI
A couple of wears ago a cranky
sort of man came into the office.
and stopped his paper, because
something In it did not just suit
his fancy. 10 We have frequently
met him on the street since that
time, and it is amusing to us to
note the look of surprise on the
old fellows lace that we are still
In existence regardless of the
fact that he stopped his paper.
Some day-and it won't be long
either-lhat old gentleman will
turn up his toes. His heart will
be stilled forever Neighbors and
friends will follow his lifeless
form to the silent city, lay him
to rest among TIE flowers. An
obituary will appear in these
columns, telling what a kind,
good iatheT, good neighbor and
beloved citizen he was-wbich
lie the recording angel will over
look for charity's sake, and in a
Sho., time he will be forgotten.
AS he lies out there in the cold
old graveyard, wrapped in the
silent slumber of death, he will
never know the last kind wsrd
spoken of him was by the editor
of the paper which in lite he
spitelully stopped" Did you
ever pause just a moment. and
think that the editor, whoever
he may be, will write your obit.
uary some day and never a mean
word, harsh or cruel sentence
Will enter therein. No differ
ence whether in lie You rrea,ed
him kindly or abused him; when
death has claimed you nothing
but good will he say OF you, even
If In doing, lite white lies ap,
pear. That's the editor always.
Your faults, and all f IL have
faults, will be lost 10 memory
and your virtues will be publish

well known here aud throughout

Congress- ssman F'inley's
Speech on the Tariff Bill

Washington, April 4.-De-
voting himself TO a discussion of
the Payne bill from a revenue
standpoint, Mr.. Finley Is. O.
expressed himself in favor OF
an income tax. He said an in.
heritance tax belongs more
properly to State than to the
national government. He CD
posed the countervailing duty on
coffee and favored reduction in
the sugar schedule. He desired
to know why cotton bagging anj
cotton lies we're not placed on the
Tree list, claiming that the plac.
ing of a duty on these articles
was a discrimination against
the cotton farmer.
The lumber, oil aud wool
scnedules were discussed by Mr..
Fiuley, who also criticised the
issuance OF additional Panama
canal bonds.
"The Payne bill is more OBJ
Jectiouable tban The Dingley
law" concluded MIR. Finley.
"The people have asked relief
from the unjust burdens of taxa
ton and your answer is to in
crease these burdens. You are
pa'terning after Solomon's son
who lost the greater part OF his
kingdom, for threatening to do
what you are doing. The peo.
pie will hold you accountable.

The Ideal Woman.

The Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott
defined "The Ideal Woman"
last Sunday night in the Central
Congregational Church, Hancock
street, near Bedford avenue,
Brooklyn, says The New York
World.
".To be an ideal woman" said
DR.. Abbott, "the feminine type
represented IN each individual
must:
"l. Discard all shoes the size
of which makes walking well
nigh impossible.
"2. She must not consider her
hands whe n it comes to oues-
tion of work.
''3. To obtain red cheeks, the
ideal woman must take exercise
and pass by paint and powder.
81. She must not be the SER
want of the dressmaker and mill
liner. They are her servants.
IS. She must not change her
styles at the dictaiion of men in
Paris.
sc. Her home must be her
palace, because in it she has de-
veloped love of beauty and
shown she knows how to create
it.
81. She must be industrious,
sympathetic, energetic, enthusl
astic, motherly and true friend"
Continuing, DR.. Abbott said
ga woman's idea OF modern
industry is playing bridge whis
morning and night. Her idea OF
modern life is to be supported
by some one else.
"The ideal woman does not
consider WORK womanly. She
believes that Hhatever concerns
her hus band concerns her. If
the ideal woman's family finds
fault with her cooking, she does
not blame the cooking. She
blames the food, and changes it.
"Woman was meant to be
mans companion; and il the idea
wore properly carried out there
would be no affinities."

BOARD ADJOURNED
ABOUT TWO THOUSAND PENSION
 APPLICANTS EXAMINED.
Of This Number Buf 3e0 Were Reject- ed--Chairman Jordan Visits Soun- tain Creek Home And is
 Pleased With Conditions.

Finishing their labors of about eleven days. the State Board of Pen sion Examiners. announced yesterday. through their chairman. w c. Jordan, of Midway, that they considered this year 1892 applications for pensions and rejected 360. This makes 6 total of 1,532 old soldiers to be added to the list of pensioners minus those who have died since the last enrolment made in the State Auditors office.
 The applications were some fewer this year than last year. Comparison shows that for the year is07-0S the total of applications was 2,50S and the number to whom were granted pen sions was 1.674. The data Is not yet available in the State Auditors office whereby the total of old and new pen sioners could be computed. The num- Der of deaths this year Is yet un- known.
 Mir. Jordans associates on the Board of Examiners are R. c. Jackson. oi Woodlawn, and Samuel Singleterry. oi Avonjale. MT. Jordan. who was fine soldier in the 1st Alabama Regiment went up to Mountain Creek Saturday afternoon to see some comrades whc are in the Soldiers Home and returned Sunday night. He expresses himself as well pleased with the conditions al that institution and the treatment ac- corded the inmates.
