NEW NAN HERALD N E W NAN, T ( K D A V, APR. 1 > Honesty. A Scotch nobleman who whs very fond of farming had bought h i • fr a a gentleman who lived near him. The cow wks to be sent home next morning. vice at os "Y in have 1 tst.” D?.

It ha been id 11 n was »( plus laud w ills the manlm;*" * and time would new ’ PPtTl ! when cell* n hotm.m y of tilt* l)t •y that t e aont 1 'in to would not bring ready money w he n , urn paid for bi» tuition u it of re tidy for market But it did. Not. a Early in the morning, ns the duke was tuk ing a walk, he saw a boy try- ing in v ain to d. rive th- ow u i bis house. Tile cow waa very unruly , and the boy could not mum ago her. The boy, not kno wing the i Juke, bawled out to him: "Hello, man! Come hero and help me with this boast.” The duke walked slowly on, not seem ing to notice tho boy, who still kept calling for help. At last finding that he could not get on with the cow, he cried out in distress: "Come here, man, and help me, and L will give you half of whatever I get." The duke went on and lent a helping hand. "And now,” said the duke, as they trudged on after the cow, “how much do you think you will get for this job?” "1 don’t know,”said the boy, "but I am sure of something, because the people up at the big house are good to everybody.” On coming to a lane near the house the duke slipped away from the boy and reached the house by a different road. Calling a servant he put a sover eign into his hand, saying: “Give thut to the boy that brought the cow.” He then returned to the end of the lane, where he had parted from the boy, so as to meet him on his way back. “Well, how much did you get?” asked the duke. "A shilling,” said the boy, “and here’s half of it for you.” "But surely you got more than a shilling?” said the duke. "No,” said the boy, "thatisall I got, and I think it quite enough." “I do not,” said the duke, “there must be something wrong; and as I am a friend of the duke, if you will return I think I’ll see that you get more.” The boy went back. The duke rang the bell and ordered all the servants assembled. "Now,” said the duke to the boy, ■“point me out the person that gave you the shilling.” "Ic was that man there, ” he said, pointing to the butler. The butler fell on his knees, and con fessed his fault, and begged to be for given; but the duke ordered him to give the boy the sovereign, and quit own pockci. An : mioable riirpi. ilion, linked with an trerg. lie desire to please those with I whom we live, smooth ever the rough places that are found in ever house hold. There are different tempera ments with w'-ich to contend—house-1 keeping cares, the demands of society, j and a g eat many women have haul, rough work to do. To perform all j these duties, and at the same time keep everything running in harmony, requires patience, tact, and ofttimes much skill. Should the housekeeper possess what is known ns bad temper it becomes her duty to control ibis passion. A refractory temper brines about more unhappiness in a house hold than almost anything. If we once give way to a harsh word, another one is much easier to follow, and almost invariably will. Get started cross in the morning and things go wrong all day. "It is the rift within tiie lute that makes the music mute.” We should do our best to overcome any in clination to give up to the little crosses, for these count. When Grunlland Uiee, who now j writes verses and prose for one of the [ New York papers, came from Nash- | ville to Manhattan to live he brought along his small daughter, Florence, then just 5 years old. The Rice family established themselves in an apartment uptown, and on the day after they got settled little Miss Florence was taken out for a walk by her negro nurse, also a Tennessee importation. The parr spent an hour on Riverside drive. “Well, Florence," inquired her moth er when the 3mall promenader returned, "how did you enjoy it?” “Mot very much,” said Florence calmly. “Didn’t you see anything?” pressed Mrs. Rice. "Only a lot of Northerners,” said Florence.—Saturday Evening Post. Many People In This Town never really enjoyed a meal until wc advised them to take a Dyspepsia JVgSSsS Tablet before and after each meal. Sold only by us—25c a box. John R. Cates Drug Co. vi'ur ago it tv is assort I that tho price of cotton would never ro below 10 cents agiiin. Hot il did. Some people mny tell you that conditions Iasi fall were unusual. They wore. They may tell you that such will never happen again. But they lie. Be your own man. Haven’t you worked tong enough fur other people? Aren’t you tireil of hogging for credit, for money, fur what you eat, for fer tilizers, and for clothes for yourself ami family? Then try the other plan awhile. With meat in your smokehouse nrd corn in vour crib you ean ho independ ent. You may have to go without some tilings, hut tho great essentials necessary to sustain life will be yours. And with these as a base to work from you ean in time he independent. Be your own man, and ask favors only of your God. It may bo a little rough going for awhile, hut the end gained' will he worth many times the price. An unusual coincidence attended the suicide of a Miss Slicker, who ended her life by shooting herself last Sunday. She employed the same pistol that her sister, who ended her own life last, year in May, used, and the tragedy oc curred in the same room. It is ulso said that the pist'd had not been shot since the first girl took her life, and that the empty shell of the cartridge fired on that occasion remained in tho revolver when the second sister made use of the weapon Sudday. The young woman was about 19 years old, and the daughter of J. W. Sticher, who lives in the Cross Plains community, a few miles from Carrollton. —Carrollton Free Press, 9th inst.

The Fishing Banks. Newfoundland would bn nothing without the great submarine plateau known as the “banks," on which all the fishing Is done. At a small sta tion within the edges of tho great bank that tho ccd loves so well the sea Is quite smooth. It Is usual for vessels fishing on the baukH to Inquire from those that have arrived from the open sea as to what sort of weather it is. —Exchange. Enlarged Tonsils and Adenoids. Before operating to remove adenoids and tonsils the health of the child should always he built up. If there Is an existing cold litis must be treutod and cured. If the teeth are decayed they must bo filled. Treating Uio teeth and the practicing of deep breathing exorcise!: will be ull that Is needed to cure tonsil disease If It Is strictly local, and not the expression of a systematic condition or some ro- oent Infect Inn. He Had It. In honor of a visit to his plant by the governor of tho state an automo bile manufacturer once had a com plete car assembled in something like seven minutes. Home .weeks Inter, after this leal was heralded in the dally papers, the phone rang vigor ously. "Is It true tlmt you assembled a oar In seven minutes at your fac tory?" the voice asked. "Yes," came tho reply. "Why?" "Oh, nothing,” said tho calm Inquirer, "only I'vo got the car." Made Slavey Hereditary. Tho first forimil recognition of ne gro slavery In Virginia was March 1, 1861, when the assembly declared that "negroes are incapable of making sat isfaction for I he time lost In running away, by addition of tittle,” and slav ery was made hereditary In Virginia In liit;^ hv an net of tile assembly that the Issue of slave mothers should fol low their condition. Danger In Waiting. Just because an Oregon scientist de clares that old men do the best work Is no reason, of course, why young fellows should put off contemplated achievements until the arrival of de clining years. It may be Ihat tho ntan who accomplishes little In Ills oarly maturity will make up for the luck when he starts down the weHlern slope of life. It doesn't sound reasonable, however. Optimistic Thought. If you mean to profit learn to oleaso Quiet Shoes. To make nice sick-room hIiocb In which you can stop about softly, cut from old felt hats sole and heel pieces. Glue these on amt you have a quluter shoo than those sold as nurses’ shoes. Tho patter of little foot, so hard on some people’s ncrveB. is easily deadened by the same meth od, also helping to keep tho little feet warm when playing on a cold floor. Weeping Willows. The weeping willows, so-called (sci entific name S. babylonlca), Is a na tive of China, from which country It has been tukcu over most of the civilized earth. It. varies In height and dimensions, according to climate and soil, and Invariably maintains Its drooping habit, the chief cause of its attractiveness. The Submarine. To get a submarine ready tor diving water is admitted Into the “ballast” tanks. To keep the vessel on an even keel water is taken Into the "trim ming tanks." Uy means of these tanks tho vessel Is made to sink or rise, nnd to preserve tho right posi tion.
