CIVILITY.

Don't try to bully the world. It. does not pay. Whoever en-
tiers the ring for a rough and tumble fight with Public Opinion
is pretty sure, eventually to be doubled up" Society is a
Briareus, and who but a mailman would think of encountering
with a single pair of fists, a hundred-armed fellow! Better
shake the multitudinous hand of the giant gOod-naturedy, than
unnecessarily provoke his wrath. Despise the world IL 1t so
please you-though to do SO is proof of arrogance, conceit and
egotism-but, as you have to live in the world, to lean on the
world, t is just as we'll to treat it civily. Shrewd men, who I'M
derstand their race, never seek a quarrel with society. Ihey
understand that it is possible for an individual to persuade,
lead and quietly control a community, but not to fight it down.
If you desire to reform social evils or to disabuse your fellow
me n of their prejudices, the surest way not to succeed is to re-
sort to denunciation and abuse. Kindness, cOncllaton, the IN
fuence of good example-these are the true and effective means
and appliances of reform.

NOT PLEASANT.

Ii is not always pleasant to record truth but there are moth
ers, who have sacrificed motherhood to worldly ambition and
the most unhappy women on earth are those who have set
aside flial ties in order to live lives of social frivolty and the
time comes to all such, when the bloom of youth forsakes the
cheek, and the fire of youth dies out of the eye. Such often
turn to their homes for sympathy and love, only to find that they
too have vanished with their personal charms, and when it is
too late they are unhonored and unloved. The path of duty
is the only safe path, let it be ever so thorny, and the only safe
guide-bOard points to the home.

A PAPER.

. Running a newspaper is just like running a hotel, only differ
ent. When a man goes into a hotel and finds something on the
table which does not suit him, he does not raise hades with the
landlord and tell him to stop his old hotel. Well hardly. He
sets that dish to one side and wades into the many dishes that
suit him. 1t is different with some newspaper readers. They
find an article occasionally that does not suit them exactly and
without stopping to think it may please hundreds of other
readers, make a grandstand play and tell the editor how the
paper should be run and what should be put into it. But such
people are becoming fewer every year.

A SHAMEFUL REPETITION OF HISTORY.

Herostratus earned an Immortality of fame by putting the
torch to the most splendid achievement of mans architectural
genius in the form Of Dianas beautiful temple of ancient times,
while Lodge, Reed, Gore and a few other destructive stateSmen
of modern times have earned an Immortality of shame by de-
stroying the majestic temple of Peace reared by the exalted
craftsmanship of Woodrow Wilson, assisted by the worlds
greatest and grandest minds, in the form of the League of Ma
tons and the Covenant of Peace. Surely history doth repeat
itself-Cotton & Cotton Oil Dallas (Texas) News.

DID NOT HAVE A SACK.

A lady, no matter where, went to a store for a peck OF APP
Piles, taking what she supposed to be a newly Numbered flour
sack. She held the sack and the clerk poured the apples in
when they came streaming out the other end. On examination
it was found there were two holes in the bottom, both trim
med and embroidered. The young men gave up the ghost and
the lady sent a small boy for the apples with a-basket.

The big banks up New York are playing their same old
tricks of squeezing the little fellow down the line. One reason
