MT. HOPE.


Mrs. John Spears, a widow residing
in this village, has been i'll for some
time, and one day last week, becom-
ing nervous with the presence of so
many visitors about her home, dis
closed the hiding places of sums am
ounting to $500, about $500 of
which was gold, mostly in $40 pieces,
some of which bear the date of 1880.
Since the death of her husband some
years ago she had lived alone, and
very simply, never showing any evil
dence of wealth, but it was known
that she had money, and the opinion
prevailed that she had it concealed
about the premises. Much of the
money was not we'll concealed, and
any prowler in the house could have
found it. Mr.. and Mrs. Spears form
erly owned an 80-acre farm east of
town, which they cultivated with pro-
fit for some time. They sold it about
twenty-three years ago to John Davis
for $4,000 and moved to town. Mr..
Spears died shortly afterward, and
since then Mrs. Spears has lived a.
lone. Had the sum of money report
ed above been put out at interest in
stead of being concealed, it would
have amounted to $4,000 or better
by this time.-Record.

1 are mixing punishment and kindness, In heart-toh heart way.
 Tn the Bessemer Jail heard a young man say, When l get out of here, I am going to make it privilege to go once week to the jail, wherever l may be, and carry little gift. I know now how fellow feels when he clasps the hand of fellow who comes to you as friend" l asked man not long ago to be "big brother" to less fortu- nate friend, and he said, When he makes man of himself, I willy ana then l said, He will not need you"
 There Is a great deal to be given out to the world to those who live in the weary and worry end of it; but there is a great deal we can do for ourselves by touching the hand of the down and outs, It may all be their fault that things are as they are, but 1t Is our fault If they remain so.
 This world Is tremendous work shop. It's human factory requires finer touch than all the finished metal. And yet, when we go to a plant, we are eager to see the finished product; it has market value. But the indi- vidual, in his work clothes, Is the man who made the article; who put its value on the scale of success. We lit- tie heed what kind of a man he is; yet ne IS the vltal part Of the machin- cry. He is that in the shop, and he Is that in the business of the world, and We must give him consideration as an article of more than market value. All of these great things which history unfolds to us are echoed today In the world we live in to give us oppor- tuntty; that We may avail ourselves of past experiences and apply them to now. All of our great men and women were cited for little deeds, which were stepping stones to their success.
 The world today is calling for little deeds, distributed with love among hundreds of folks who need your smile. more than they need your bread. After they have eaten the bread, there is no more; but that smile lives with them, and brings smile to you.
 Charity Is a virtue of the heart and not of the hands" q.
