Good Advice

Thomas Jefferson, third President
OF the United Sa'es,gave this advice
TO the fo|ke of biz generation:
DO not ei' up late Ct night; s.udy
and work in the daytime. Rise early
and 60 10 bed early. Avoid novel
reading and cultivate the compan-
Ionshlp Of good books. Never tell a
lie or s'oop TO u mean act. BE kind
to every living creature. Speak no
evil of any one Be good, adore
God. be loyal to friends and love
your country better than Yourself,
Take hold Of thingg by the smooth
bandit; avoid disputes; do not turn
plcoaant conversation into heated
"rFumsnt. Too much speaking 10
not best. Nce0r put off till tomor.
row what ycu can do today. Never
spend yonr money before you have
It. Nevcr bnY VITA: you do not need

more than hunger, 'hirst and GOLD,
We never repent Of having eaten too
llttle. Never h0r'nw trouble.

OF MASSACHUSETTS, TURNED
TIE TABLES ON N-"SUNSET"
COX OF OHIO.

1t was in the month Of February
1864. The House Of Representatives
at Washington bad uuder considers-
tion House bill No. 81, to establish
q Bureau of Freedmen Affairs, " hich
bad been reported from the Select
Committee on the subject, and on
which the gentle man from Ohio, was
entitled TO the floor. In those days as
in these, every measure affecting the
rights, or tending in any way to ben
eft tho Negro had it's Champion and
its opponents. We are practically
fighting the came bitter prejud ce to
the Negro that white men fought for
us when We were lees able to fight
Tor ourselves --anslyze the recen,
vote on the Bennett resolution 10
re disfrsnchlsement. But there are
not 10 many white men fighting for
us nor with US as there were in the
sixties. A great many of them have
got "cold feet" And there's q
reason.D
Sunset Cox then of Ohio, later
OF New Yo,k was little sawed off,
and hammered down specimen of
statesman, who had made the
mistake of allying bimself with the
democratic party. he was wit of
no mean order, and was brilliant ip
debate. Well, Sunset Cox saw in
this bill his opportunity to stir up
the aninnls, and be embraced is by
vigorously attacking it, giving res-
son for his opposition to it which
were more or less plausible, if not al.
together convincing. Mr.. Cox took
advantage OF his opportunity to die
cuss at some length the question OF
m'scegenation, which at that time
was one Of the burning questions OF
the hour, its twin sister was:-"Do
you want your daughter to marry a
niggeI?'
