II there's no moon, the stars my needs

Or. lampless, there's my trusty tallow

SAYS THE OWL.

Most of the FISH in small puddles
imagine they are big.
The people who are paid to be
good never earn their salary.
The man who is afraid of work de-
serves to be scared to death.
Women remind us of angels because
they are always flying around
Why is It that little girls always
smile and little boys always grin?
Marriage is the process by which a
woman tries to get job as boss.
Anyway the woman who marries a
man with dimple in his chin had fair
warning
Don't waste valuable time explain
ing why you failed Get busy and
make good.
Wise is the husband who, instead
Of trying to be all things to all men,
tries TO be everything to one woman.
One kind OF pessimist is a man who
wonders II another mans wife knows
her husband half as well as he does.

JUST THOUGHTS.

It's a good plan to hope for the best.
but it's a better plan to hustle for IT,
The truth in nutshell is alright
in theory, but 1t would take a squirrel
to find 1t.
A life insurance company will some
times reject a man as heartlessly as
his best girl.
The man with a clear conscious and
a good appetite is richer than many
a millionaire.
The self-made man generally acts as
though he thought he ought to take
out patent on himself.
A woman can generally twist a man
around her little finger, unless she
happens to be married to him.

WITH THE POETS
OF Myself.

OF Myself.
This only grant me. that my means may
lie
Too low FOR envy. for contempt too high
Some honor I would have.
Not from great deeds. but good alone;
The unknown are better than an known;
Rumor can ope the grave.
Acquaintance l would have, but when Il
depends
Not On the number, but the choice of
friends.
Books should, not business, entertain the
light.
And sleep, as undisturbed as death, the
night.
Ny house cottage more
Than palace; and should fitting be
For all my use. no luxury.
My garden, painted DER
With Natures hand, not Arts; and pleas
ure yield
Horace might envy his Sabine field.
Thus would I double my lIfe's fading
space;
For he that runs it well twice runs his
race.
And in this true delight
These unbought sports this happy state,
would not fear nor wish, my fate;
But boldly say each night
Tomorrow let my sun his beams dis
play.
Or in the clouds hide them; have lived
to-day.

Deservinas.

This is the height of our deserts:
A little pity for llfe's hurts
A little rain, a little sun.
A little sleep when work is done.
little righteous punishment
Less for our deeds than their intent;
A little pardon now and then,
Because We are but struggling men.
A little light TO show the way,
A little guidance when we stray;
A little love before we pass
To rest beneath the kirkyard grass.
A little faith in days of change
When life is stark and bare and strange;
A solace when our eyes are wet
With tears OF longing and regret
True 1t is that we cannot claim
Unmsasured recompense OF blame,
Because our way OF life is SMALL
A little Is the sum Of all

II power were mine to WELD control
OF time within my heart and SOUL
Saving from ruin and decay
What I hold dearest ! should pray:
That 7 may never cease to be
Wooed daily by expectancy;
That evening shadows In mine eyes
Dim not the light Of new surprise;
That I may feel, till life is spent
Each day the sweet bewilderment

In snowy winters golden springs,
And quicker heart-beats at the thought

With all the awe and wonder gone,

Romance and Reality.

She planned the man whom she would
wed
Should be- both brave and good.
Full six feet tall with curly hair,
Adept at saving wood
Combining woman's tenderness
with mans stern hardlhood.
Her husband measured five feet two,
His hair was red and straight.
He only made ten plunks per week.
Cared but for what he ate,
And yet she truly thought he made
A husband simply great

Perhaps she feels more like pitchingin
and doing big weeks washing.
But that's no reason why she should
boil her clothes and wash them in hot water
No reason why she should fill her house

catching a bad cold.
No reason for reddening hands and
face by hot water and steam.
No reason for breaking her back over

preciated the consideration shown
him by General Grant at Appomat-

the vindictive threats of Stanton to
disregard the sanctity OF the parole,

But he abstained rigidly from criti-

Skin.
Richmond Times Dispatch

Richmond Times Dispatch
Nathan Moore rests from his labOrs,
and in him the humble has been eX-
allied. When the Master was asked
by His disciples more than nineteen
hundred years ago ''whO is the great
est in the kingdom of heaven?' He
called a little child unto Him, and
setting him down in the midst OF
them He said: "Whosoever shall
humble himself as this little child, the
same is greatest in the kingdom OF
heaven
Nathan Moore was u negro. he
was the property at one time OF
Nicholas Mills Corbin, and he spent
the first thirty years of his life in
bondage, pleasant enough condl-
ton in the sense that he was cared
for as generously as could be by his
owner; but he could not call himself
his own. That was nearly forty-five
years ago, and of this long and event
full period Nathan Moore spent thirty
years in the service Of the Westmore-
land Club as principal doorkeeper OF
that organization, the most famous
in the South, and the most represen-
tative of what is best in the life OF the
South. Nathan died on Saturday,
and yesterday he was buried with all
the honors he had won by faithful
work in his lowly but honorable
sphere, and among the sincerest
mourners at his bier were: W. Cor
don McCabe, T. NJ. Rutherford, O. S.
Allen, H. L. Cabell, A. 81. Christian,
Jr., j. B. Mosby, Alexander Cameron,
Blair Boiling, J. R. Gildersleeve,
George NJ. Reed, W. NJ. Scott, H. w.
Ellerson, William Gray, gentlemen
of the W+stmoreland, testifying by
their presence and their heartfelt
sympathy to the affection in which
this man and brother was held by
them and their associates. There
was never a finer funeral in all the
history of this town; for in the full
hearts of his mOurners there was that
little touch of nature that makes the
whole world kin.
Nathan Moore was doorkeeper at
the Westmoreland, as we have said,
/ for thirty years. Into that hospita-
BILE place he admitted the members
and their friends for q generation.
He knew them all and they knew him,
the same diginifed but gentle servi-
tor and always self-respecting man
through all the years of his life al
most to the hour of his happy death.
1t can very we'll be believed that
hereafter whenever they go to the
club they will look for Nathan Moore
and sigh for the voice that is still.

The Newspaper as a Business
Builder.

Not in a long time have we seen
the case for newspaper advertising
more sensibly and unansWerably
stated than in the following extract
from the st. Adams vt Messenger:
One more Franklin county business
concern decides no fOrsake advertis-
ing wagons, billboards, store win
dOws and other similar expensive and
Ineffective methods of advertising
and will employ space in newspapers
hereafter. They will all come to it
in time. Advertisingpays if the man
has something to sell so regulates
his advertising as to convince other
people that it is worth buying. All
the substitutes for newspaper adver-
Using can be easily avoided or dis
regarded by the very people the ad-
vertiser tries hardest to attract, the
man or woman that can afford to
buy.
They willall come in time" Our
contemporary is right, beyond the
shadow of doubt.
Outdoor, street car, circular and
letter advertising are apt and efficient
auxillaries to newspaper publicity,
but they are, after all, only auxili-
aries.
1t is the journal of general circula-
ton, that goes every day or every
week or three times a week into the
homes of the ultimate consumers,
that brings results in the way OF
craftsmanship.
