SALEM SOCIETY.

LADY writes to the Capital Journal asserting that
local society turns the cold shoulder to newcomers,
that there is lack of cordality among women and that
instead of welcoming residents, their presence is
rather resented.
Salem society,", she asserts Consists of various
elusive cques which have little do with each other and
y repellant and makes Salem unattracve to women.

THE SURE CURE

Some grand old truths are eyerlast-
ing; one is that industry is good; amid
the yawpng and dodoasting, remember
that. and saw your wood Too many
takers spring their whee2es, too many
make the welkin ring; and a cure for
our disease is work the sane and proper
thing. Too many orators are climbing
on sttnnps and kegs to show their curves
aud even as j do this rllyminga braying
windsmth jars my nerves, The puzzling
knots VIC will unravel, and get things
going right once more, when we quit
paving up the gravel and get down ,c
the useful chore. There's nothing like
some honest sweating to drive the fan
tods from our brains, and help us to
tile prompt forgetting Of all our penal
ties and pains. When / am idle ! start
broodng, and entertain the saddest
views, and have nightmares, vain, de-
luding, and see snakes and kangaroos.
Bal ! am cheerful when I'm busy, !
&ng sweet songs in dulcet tones; the
Russian stuffs seems -nllnk and dizzy to
one who's earning honest bones. And
when we all get down to toiling said
Russian stuff will see slump; and
feryid lenguoge will be spelling, with
other rubbish, at the dump.
