An Ideal Home.

We hear q great dea, these times
about the ideal happy home. and mon
ire not scarce who expect all the re-
luisites for happy home to come
from one side of the house.
A woman may do her level best to
MAKE life and homo happy for her
husband and children, but if she is
treated as Save, and only given
her board and clothing in payment
for her services as mother. wife, cook,
laundress. nurse girl, chambermaid,
and seanstress, is it any wonder
that little or no happiness exists in
that home? If a mother spells her
son by pamnering and waiting on
aim ali the years of his childhood and
oyhood, and making him think that
a man should always be waited on by
a woman of his household, is it
strange that he expects o wife to do
the same, ID that, in all likelihood,
she either wears out in q few years
from such service or Ell sc
b 30 es bi tier or DIS
heartened. We are often told that
in every true and ideal marriage both
husband and wife must learn to bear
and forbear. In every home where
happiness exists, there must be per
| feet trust, confidence and love be-
tween husband and wife, There are
| two kinds Of sunshine IN the word,
and both quite necessary ont
which is caused by the suns shining
out door, and the other by shining in
our hearts. 1t is the loving deeds,
the CHEEKY hopeful words and the
kinnly thoughtfulness that each
member of the family shows towards
the others that makes an ideal, hap
Ply home-a perfect heaven on earth

1t is q time honorcd custom to
commemorate the one hundredth an
University of all institutions by appro-
pirate celebrations. One hundred
years ago Greene County was organ
lied and named for a gallant Reyo-
lutionary hero. Since then it has
not startled the world by its great
progress, but we need not be asham-
ed. 1t has not made history in the
great crises that confront people, yet
it has made history in the every day
life of it's citizenship for no County
can boast of mure law abiding and
upright citizenship than it. 1t be-
hooves us as patriotic citizens to
show our appreciation of its prosper
ity through hundred years in some
appropriate way; and that celebra-
ton should help to develop and i'm
prove the County along the lines
where Improvement is most need ID.
1t has been suggested that the peo-
pie of the County set aside q week
fol this celebration, and spend that
week in doing something toward the
material development of the County.
This week would be OF great value to
the material development Of the
County if the entire citizenship would
set apart one day cleaning up, inn
proving and identifying the school
houses and school grounds, and two
or three days in improving the pub
lie reads, and close up the celebration
with a social day at the school houses
with school con tests and dinner on
the ground.
OF course it will take the co-opera-
ton of the citizenship of the County
for the celebration to be success,
and to that end we would be glad to
get an expression from the people
generally as to whether such a cele-
bration could be successfully carried
out about the latter part OF Novem-
Der. If the people will turn out gen
orally Greene County will scarcely
resemble itself after the week is over.

Eribed By His P0cksthoOk.

Bribery OF public offices is highly
condemned by all honest men. The
man who, holding public office, ac-
cepts bribc which influences his Of
fetal conduct is properly denounced,
as one contemporary puts it, as a
traitor to his trust.
There is another bribery, however,
more dangerous because more subtle,
for which the law provides no punish
ment and for which only the whip OF
public scorn can afford penalty. This
bribery is by ones own pockeLbook.
Some men who would scorn the bride
offered by another will accept with
out apparent misgiving bribery from
themselves.
1T will hurt my business This is
the plea made by persons who are
asked to take stand for righteous
ness. 1t is selfish plea, but it is
more; it is q criminal plea. 1t is on
the same low plane of bribery that
public opinion condemns and the
criminal law publishes.
The reformer meets the evidences
OF this subtle form of bribery when
he seeks the support OF those who
pc'ce self above principle. Don t
quote me it would hurt my business, y

TIE END OF TUBERCULOSIS
Systems That Resist the Germ.

Men who lead clean, temper

who give the body the attention
which is its due, will stand the
best chance against the germ of

The single exception might be
the individual inheriting weak
or enfecbled constitution. Even
here knowledge of the weak
ness and an effort to overcome it
will 20 far toward safeguarding
the individual.
Alcohoism-that is, drunken
ness-will weaken the body so
that it Il particularly susceptible.
Privation-that is, lack of prop
err and nourishing food-will eff

successfully resist the germ.
Incorporate habits-that is, ex-
cessive use of drugs, tobacco,
stimulating beverages, etc., lack
of proper rest. indulgence of
physical passions, etc.-will en-
gender a condition which cannot
resist the germ.

Alex Miller was IN town Monday.
Alex has lately fenced up that prop
erty of his down beyond Martin Greek
which causes the public road out that
way to have to make an ell to get
round it. A part OF the Amsler crew
are this week finishing up this
stretch of road, which we trust will
be the permanent one along there, as
these char ges are quite expensive to
the county.
