An Editors Job.

Here is an expression of a
minister, Rev. James Potter, of
Tampico, ILL.,, after acting for
two weeks as editor of a weekly
paper:
Let any man for one week
try his hand at getting out a
newspaper and he will hence
foSth have more patience than
he ever had before with such
errors of judgement and mis-
takes of fact that a busy editor
is apt to make. In fact, it would
be a good thing for us all if we
could arrange to exchange jobs
for a brief while now and then,
we would come to know the bur-
den others bear.
Help the editor. Give him
items of news, with names,
places and dates correct, help
him get it right, then you won't
have to kick him for having il
wrong. Put the best construct
ion on the matter and remember
if you had written it up it might
have been worse. No man con.
tributes to the interests of the
town and gets less credit for il
than does t h e local editor,
Praise when you can, censurt
when you must, but do it ir
kindness.
Your editor will respond Il
both with a better publication

| weeks as editor. Daily indie
pendent, Maysville.

ment to the man who needs it, kind word to
the sorroWfu an encouraging expression to the
strving trit1es in themselves as light as air will
do it, at least for twenty-four hours; and if you
are young depend upon it, it will tell when you
are old; and, if you DID, rest assured it will
send you gently and happily down the stream of
human time to eternity
BY the most simple arthmetical sum, look at
the result. You send one person-only one,
happily through the day. That is 365 in the
course of the year. Supposing you live forty
years only after you commence that course of
medicine, you have made $500 human beings
happy at all events, for time.-Sidney Smith
Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God
But only he who sees takes off his Shoes

Life isn't taking in only, it's giving out too
And it's not giving out only work deeds or
things we've made. It's giving ourselves out, too
freely, freely!--to other people. Giving our
selves in comradeship, in understanding in Joy
in love.-Anthony Hope.

UNCLE CHARLES RESOLUTIONS.

"Be thoughtful, be kind. Do all the good you
can whenever you can to whomsoever you can.
BE temperate in drinking, eating and speak
ing
think right, act right and do right.
BE charitable in your thoughts as we'll
your deeds
"Be mercful in your Judgment, and merciful
to all animals and feathered creatures
BE fair, square and upright in all your deal
ings. Live and let live, and don't lie and cheat
for the sake of making a few dollars for
money earned that way never did anyone any
good.
Don't waste your time in knocking your
neighbors, and criticizng others anG better still
live SO that your example may help your more i'm
perfect brethren to overcome their short
cOmings and measure up to that standard Of per-
lection, which, by Gods help you trying to
reach.
Remember that you can't take dollar of
your wealth with you when the scythe cuts you
down Help the needy, sick, afflicted and pro-
tect, cheer and comfort the feeble and aged.
Charity covers multitude of sins, and remem-
Der that to cover your SINS and this every
one of you, you will need a charity blanket as
big a circus tent.
"Be Christian, and to be a Christian you
must be Christ-like Just going to church won't
make you a Christian any more than going to
circus will make you an elephant. Get all the
innocent fun and pleasure you can out of life.
You can smile and enjoy life and still be a
Christian. God didn't intend the devil and his
followers to have all the good times
do your best to make this world better
place to live in, and you can do that by working
HdTu, Young rlSnC ana ngnLlng oppression, cor
ruption, wrong, graft plumber, privilege and rot
tenness wherever and whenever you find it.
"Fill your heart with love for all humanity
If you make mistake don't get discouraged If
you SIM don't think you beyond redemption
All that God expects of you or any woman
is that they do the best they know how. If you
fail begin all over again. God knows you are
weak, and He is willing to help you to fresh
start. Keep your head in the air, look up, not
down, out not in. Have high ideals, and if you
do not live up to them live as near to them as you
can. Charles Noel Douglas.
