When she dances her dainty feet should caress the floor only in the elevated points, nnd when she sings, mocking birds ought to stop their carols and lis ten. That’s the kind of a girl you ought to marry, but oh, young man! be sure that these are not- her ouly recommendations. Above all things, find out before propos ing whether or not her mother gets up and cooks breakfast every morning while vonr angel is snugly tucked in bed, running the chro matic scale in a nasal solo just loud enough to gently jar tlie glass in the windows. Beauty is always an admirable qualification, hut after the courting is done, after the pars n has finished, after the people have gone, you’ll find that the romance is ended, you'll dis • cover what married life means, and when your !< veflights arc over you’ll drift back to hae m and •Tori':. Clip tliiB out and add it to your scrap book collection of success stories: Jerome llall Raymond, who lias just, been called to the presidency of tho new Toledo University, be gan life as a newsboy. His capital was 1 cent borrow ed from his sister, lie didn't hide his one cent in a napkin after the manner of the unprofitable servant. He made it grow into a bank ac count. His mother was a good woman who kept him from the vicious habits of some of the street boys. He would not (iglil unless some fellow made the first attack or pitched onto a smaller boy. Then lie would battle like a wildcat. The boy went to night school, and at the age of 1 ! was an export stenographer and typewriter. To day the fingers of his right hand aro slightly twisted. That came from using a pencil before his young bones hardened. At 18 he entered college at Eyanston. Mind you, he had no father and his mother was an in- yalid. He took the full coune and cared for his mother and sis ter—and paid for home in the meantime! That makes you like Jerome 11. Raymond. He graduated with honors, tak ing the oratory prize and some others. He became the valued secretary of the late Francos E. Willard. Then President Harper offered him a $3,000 professorship in Chicago University. Now he has been elected to organize a bran new university. It is the old story.” They all read nearly alike: Hum ble beginnings integrity—hard work keeping at—success. In the bright lexicon of youth there is—or ought to bo—no such word as “fail.” Edited by Insiders. ' The convicts serving at hard labor in the state prison at Jack- son, Mich., publish a newspaper under the title Broaden Out. The proprietary company which con trols this unique tittle newspaper and also the editorial and report- torial staff which performs the work are by long odds the largest of any newspaper in this country, j for. all the 700 convicts in tho j prison share its profits, and all j are privileged to contribute to its | columns. Nearly all tho convicts, ; as well as many ex-convicts and ! other individuals throughout ! Michigan, aro on its subscription 1 rolls at the rateof $1 for one year, | 50 cents for six months and 5 j cents for single copies. As the | convicts own tho printing plant j unincumbered and contribute la- | bor without wages, the profits of 1 their journalistic institution are j largo. j The parent who flics to the rod to correct every trifling fault or j misdemeanor will have no influ ence with her children when they are too old to be governed by force. A child should never be struck in anger. A box on the chr may rupture tho membrane that forms the drum, and cause permanent deafness. A hasty blow may do mischief that years of repentance cannot undo. Pun ishment is for discipline, not for revenge. It is to teach the child to avoid evil and do right. It should never bo a vent for tho all gry passions of the mother love, patience and firmness are the instruments she must use to mold her child’s character. Pun ishment is a means to an end; let her pray for grace to use it wisely. For Rattlesnake Bite. Editor Constitution:—I am a fnllblooded Creek Indian, and a subscriber to your paper. . I want to give you a remedy for rattle snake bites. A rattlesnake bite can be cured by any one if lie knows how. 1 believe 1 read about more pooplo getting hit and dying from the bite in the Constitution than in any paper. As you live in the heart of tho south you can do lots of good by giving tho pub lic tho benefit of the remedy. In the first place an Indian never I dies from the bite of a rattler, and j an Indian never dies from the f bite of a mad dog. You will see ! the greatest curiosity on earth if I you see an Indian with rabies, j They have a remedy for both.. | This is the remedy: “Let the snake go about hin business, Run to the house, get an onion about two inches in di ameter, about three cents worth of tobacco. Then get a table- spoonful of salt, cul the tobacco up pretty fine with a knife, mix the tobacco and salt till it is well mixed. It will make a poultice. I Place this on the wound. Make i a new poultice every six hours or twelve, and it will not even swell, i Apply as soon as possibly.” Please excuse this, but an In- j dian likes to talk, lienee this long I letter. CJ11 as. Gibson. Eufaula, Indian Ter., Jan. 17, | ’97. Mothers in The Kitchen. Mother never for one moment think your doing is unimportant, oven if much of your time is pass ed in the kitchen. The noblest and the wisest liye by eating, non- poetic and common as it may seem. Think, tired housewife, not how your piano -trained fin gers are becoming stiff, awkward and Hushed from moulding the “staff of life,” but consider wlmt the members of your “sweet home” are accomplishing. For instance, the husband is, perhaps, a minister of tho gospel, winning souls to Jesus. Your son is tak ing high rank in college and your lovely daughter is to go as a mis- ] sionary, and all of them derive strength of mind, frame and mus cle from “mother’s table,” Are you not doing something indis- pensible? Your kitchen efforts help run all the machinery of life. What would become of “home, sweet homo” if in discour agement, the mothers and homo j girls ceased their doings? Out of j the well kept homes come the no- j blest of our land. Two New York newspaper cor- ! respondents have attracted a great ! deal of attention recently on their way from New York to St. Louis in an automobile. They went to prepare a map of the most direct route for the use of a large body of automobilists who will go to the world’s fair in that way. It is , expected that about 1,500 ma ; chines with at least 5,000 people 1 will make the trip over tho route which they will lay out. The j touring party expects to leave New York July 25 and to arrive in St. Louis Aug. 10. They will ful low a regular schedule, all the : stops having been arranged by tho : mapmakera. False teeth mad. of paper aro in use in Germany, and arc reputed to lie. highly satisfactory. These paper teeth have several advan tages over (he ordinary ones of porcelain or mineral composition. They are very cheap, do not break or chip, arc not sensitive to heat or cold, nor has the moisture of the mouth any injurious effect upon them. .a / •••, V-~1 >.-9, HEGISTERED The Most Complete Lin0 of ** fiSSWi ''VsSc \\w vmv'ssw ^\W\wwi And TV 11 Other Kinds of Ladies & Childrens Shoes EVER BROUGHT TO DAEiLONEGA- Other Goods Too Numerous to Mention. W. P. PRICE, Jr. Dealer in FAMILY GROCERIES AND General Merchandise. The Boy Essayist. The hoy was nearing the time of Ills graduation from the high school. Ho was a favorite in the school, says the Lewiston Journal, but lie had taken higher rank ou tlie baseball and football -fields than he had in the classroom, and this was when he began to bo sor ry. The “exercises' of gradua tion day loomed large before him. He v r as down for an essay. ll looked more formidable - than any obstacle lie had ever encountered on the athletic field, and the near er the day came the larger it look ed. There was a Harvard man stay ing in the villago at tho time, and to him, finally, the young athlete went and besought his help in tho writing of the essay. Tho uni vei ity man was amused, but he concealed his emotions. ‘ Well,” I10 said, ‘a graduation essay is a lossy piece of work. I have not don< much writing lately, and 1 hardly feel like tackling such a job. The boy’s face fell. "Still,” the Harvard man added, “I don’t know—perhaps—1 sup pose you have picked out the subs jeet you want to write about?” “Yes,” answered the young athlete, “the subject is ‘Self-Re liance.’ ' ’ Curious Cullings. Three Hstursworo recently mar ried at the same time at Manches ter, N. 11. Two of the grooms were brothers and the third one of their lifelong chums. A divorced Canadian wife claims copyright of her former husband’s name,’ and a Toronto court lias issued an injunction against its use by the new wife whom he married in Dakota. The dog of John Looker at Dan bury, Conn., was troubled by (leas and was kept m the cellar. Try ing to free himself ho tunneled under the chimney, which was upset, and the house took fire.
