There is M satisfaction in Twin In

a path a half a mile long from the

about eighty rods to the corn crib, and
then about four blocks around to the
pig pen. BY the time he gets that
done, If it's snowin' any, he has to turn

HOME TRADE.

1t is well to talk home trade. 1t is
better to trade at home, whenever the
goods can be bought locally. There
are other things connected with max
ing home trade a success.
It Is necessary that the prices be
right. There should be a careful in
v~estigaticn of both quality and prices,
and twill generally be found that you
can do just as well right at home as to
trust the mail order house. especially
when the carrying charges and other
~ineidentais are taken into account.

These Journals are constantly boosting
for them; it is not charity the publish

in proper publicity; indirectly the re-
turns are wen greater. Here is n
way where the persons directly inter-
ested in home trade many times fall
dowr Their ignoring of the news

spirit which should be conquered by
themselves, as the injury is greater to
themselves than to the publishers.
Another way to make their wares

proposed here the middle Of this
month! It will DO a revelation to many
a citizen to see some of these goods,
made here. Ignorance of their ex-
istence causes the loss of much BUSH
aess. The display should be full and
every one should carefully inspect the
same, and when any. of these goods
are wanted go to YOU local dealer and
ask for the articles made here in Far
so. If he does not have them insist
that ne keep them. and accept no SUBJ

between the manufacturer, the pub,

A VERDICT.

An Illinois jury has returned a ver-
dict in which it is specified that no
pardon board shall ever pardon or
commute the sentence passed on the
prisoner who had Just been tried.
There must be something radically
wrong when a jury will go outside the
law to add such a clause to the YER
dict.
The Nashville Tennessean has this
to say on the case mentioned in the
foregoing:
Henry w. Morris killed Mrs. Estelle
Dumas in cold blood. Fermentation
was clearly proven and the jury at
Aurora. ILL.,, before which he was
speedily tried, promptly sentenced him
to life Imprisonment, and ordered that
he be kept in solitary confinement on
every anniversary Of the murder.
Not content with this, the jury spec
flied in its finding that no pardon
board should ever parole Morris.
OF course the judge set aside the
anti-parole provision, but the attempt
of the twelve honest jurors to see alb
solute justice done, and to insure
freedom from the political influence
which manipulates governors and
pardon boards is a bitter reflection on
the abuse of the pardon power in
America.
Much fault is found with juries and
the jury system, but it has been
shown to be the ark of iustice, in
many recent cases. Darrow didn't
dare trust the McNamara's necks to a
Los Angeles jury. Beattie found
speedy justice at the hands Of Virginia
jurymen, and many other recent cases
have shown that juries are superior
to many officials supposed to be Of
greater intelligence but subservient to
political influence. ,
State laws should guard pardons
and paroles SO carefully hat Aurora
jurymen should not feel called upon
to legislate in their verdict.
