‘IS THE WOULD GROWING
WORSE?”
It is a sign of a healthy interest in
the practical affairs of ’if* that our
clergymen are beginning to preach
sermons on the question as to wheth
er the world is growing worse or not.
It is gratifying to be able to believe
that thier verdiat will be that on the
whole the world is growing better.
It would be very uncomfortable for
tho clergy if in spite of their devoted
efforts this poor world should keep
on going from bad to jwos l , and it
would be still more unfortunate for
the rest of us who would have to en
dure the sad results of stich degener
acy.
Poor world as this is, it is only
necessary to study the facts of its
condition to be convinced that it
realizes Gladstone’s pious estimate of
the next world—that it will be a con
dition of improvement.
Mortal man having a body as well
as a soul, must be fed in < r Jer to
live, and man is better fed t day
than ever. He is belter lodged, bet
ter clothed and has bis health better
cared for. He is cleaner as well as
healthier, and, in a word, his bodily
wants are better supplied now than
at any former time.
Mentally tho world is improving.
Education is a steadily widening in.
fluenee, and with ths dissipation of
ignorance comes the disappearance
of many mental troubles. In spite of
occasional outbreaks of jingoism and
imperialism here and there, the com
mon sense of the world is gradually
irresistibly substituting peace and
arbitration for war and bluster. Even
politically we are constantly reach
ing out for better things, although,
of course, we can tell more about that
after the election returns are all in*
On the whole there is 110 more
profitable subject for contemplation
and comment by preachers in the
pulpit and out of it than the condition
of this world we live in. Nor could j
tuere be a more pious hope to ex
press than the hope that as we who
are bring today are more fortunate
iban those who have gone before us,
so may those who come after us be
even more fortunate than we. —New
York World.*

An Ad Verse.
There was a man in our town,
And he was wondrous wise;
He’d stock bin store, cut prices down
And then he'd advertise.
If times were lively, trade was brisk,
He’d hunt a printer sage
Anp say: “I guess I’d better risk
A dispayed hall a page.”
But when the times were hard and
tight
And cotton fell apace,
And folks were feeling .blue a sight—
He’d take just twice the.space.
‘Twas logic, then, he soon grew rich,
And no one sbowd surprise—
The secret and the sense of which
Is; ‘‘Always advertise.”
— 1), G. Bickers.

That a kind word put out at inter

of love and appreciation.
That though a loving thought may
not seem to be appreciated, ii has yet
made yon better and braver because
of it.
That the liite acts of kindness and
thoughtfulness day by day are really
greater tliae one iminei.s.: at o
goodness shown once a year
That to be always polite to the
people at home is not only more lady
like, but more refined than having
“company manners.”
That to learr. to talk pleasantly
a' out nothing in partieu ar is a fine
art, and prevents you saying things
you may regret.
That to judge anybody by his per
sonal appearance stamps you as not
only ignorant but vulgar
That to talk, and fa'k, a; and talk,
about yourself and your belongings
is very tiresome to the peoele who
lie ten.
That to be witty (?) at the expense
of somebody elsl is positive cruelty
many times.
personalities are not always
interesting ari l very often offensive.
That the ability to keep a friend is
very much greater than that required

Editor’s Motto.
The editor of a Western paper gets
off the following trite bit of advice.
“Our motto is. Lie, steal, drink and
swear.” When you lie let it be down
to pleasant dreams; when you steal,
let it be away from immoral compan
ions; when yon drink, let it be pure
cold water: when you swear, swear
that you will patronize your home
paper, pay your stibst ription ar.d not
send your job work away fiom home-
Election of Judges and Solicitors.
Constitutional amendments provid
ing for the election of judges and
solicitors by the pec pie having been
car.iied at the recent election, the mat.
tor of how these nominations will be
made will now have to be determined.
We believe they should be made Ly
circuits, and by Democratic primary.
This is the nest way to get at who t 1;
people of cacti circuit wan l for their
judge and solicitor. —Georgia Cracker
Ain’t, It tlic Truth, Though?
Some nvn let their subscription
run for four or tiv< years and! then
get as mad as the old Harry if th?
newspaper man want? bis money.
They' have read it all the time and
cussed when they missed a copy, and
then when asked to pay will lie like a
blue streak and swear that they have
never subscribed for tbe paper and
never wanted it. There may not ba
areal burning hades, but there ought
to be some sort of place for tbe ac
comodation of some men.—Fx.
The Wealth of Cuba.
If Uncle Sara should, in the interest
ot humanity, add Cuba to his domains,
it would almost double his wealth.
With Cuba under a stable government

four great staples— tobacco, Buga
coffee and rice. It seems a shame to
abandon this rich island to an al en
race.
A Great Naval Duel.
Henceforward —to uso Nelson’s words
about his own most desperate acction —
“there was no muneuvering, there was
only downright fighting,” and great as
was Jones’ unquestionable merit as a
handler of strips it was downright fight
ing endurance of the most extreme and
individual, character that won this bat
tle. W hen thus in contact, the superior
ity cf the British eightcens over tho
Americr.n twelves, though less than at
a distance, was still great, but afar
heavier disparity lay iu tho fabrics of
the two enemies. The Richard was a
very old ship, rotten, never meant for
naval use. Tho Serapis was new, oil
her first com mi ssiou. The light hitherto
having engaged tho port guns of the
latter, tho starboard lower gun ports
were still closed, and from tho ships
touching could not bo opened. They
.t- . • lilrurn rvC.’ hmR fhp fiffht
were therefore blown oh, and the fight
went on.
“A novelty in naval combats was
now presented to many witnesses, but
to few admirers," Quaintly wrote xjiou
tenunt Dale, who was in the midst of
the scene below decks. “The rammers
were run into tbe respective ships to
S enable tho men to load” —that is, the
staves of tins rammers of one ship cu
; tored tho ports of the other as the guns
j were being loaded. ‘‘We became so
close fore and aft, ” reported Tearsou,
"that the muzzles of cur gnns touched
1 each other's sides,” and even so, by tho
testimony of tho lieutenant on the lower
gnu deck cf tho fcSerapis, her guns could
not bo fully run out owing to the near
ness of tbe vessels.—Captain Mahan iu
