Two Storks Are Busy.

Linton is fast becoming a metro
politan city in every sense of the.
word. The latest fad to reach the
town is one heretofore only com
mon to larger cities, that of deposit
ing on adoor-step a newborn infant
whose misfortune it had been to be
born where it was not welcome.
Last Friday morning, early, Rev.
L.. A. Lovelace was awakened by
some unusual noise OH the porch OF
his home. He went to investigate
and found AN infant only few hours
old. wrapped in an old sack. The
infant was ne arly dead from expo
sure, but was restored through the
efforts of DR.. Hogue. An lnvestl-
cation was begun by county author
titles, but nothing was determined as
to the identity Of the mother. The
baby is healthy one and shows ev
cry int ntion Of living, despite the
fact that it was called upon to make
such strenuous beginning of its
existence. 1t was only by narrow
margin that some one missed having
the stain of murder on his or her
conscience. Such crime as this is
daily becoming more frequent in
the large cities, but is extremely
uncommon in rural communities,
where it would seem that it would
hardly be possible to perpetrate such
an act without detection.

Dickens and Thackeray both have re- corded the entertainment that they gained when people who were almost perfect originals of their characters asked them gravely if really they ever had met such creatures as they put into their books. Dickens, especially. never failed to delight in incidents of this na- ture.
 The character of Mrs NielIleby is ono of the most striking cases in point. No Mrs Nickleby ever recognizes herself as being even remotely like the Mrs. Nickleby of Nicholas Nlckleby Yet it has been said that there is a Mrs Niekleby in nearly every family. The very nature of the Mrs. Nicklebys for bids that they ever should recognize their picture. Their characteristic IS thoughtless babble. As they can hardly remember from one day to the other or one hour to the other, what they have said. it is quite impossible that they should recognize their own type ot con- versation when they see It.
 If there is a Mrs. Niekleby Tn neafly every family, there is also httle or Mrs. Nickleby in every one of us. Let us catch ourselves at times when con- versation has become trivial, and we shall have to admit that some of our discussions are quite as pretty as Mfs' Njclxleby's "reminiscences of her dear papas salt cellars
