Some men can’t find words tor
their thoughts and some women
can't find thoughts for their words.
Some men are unsuccessful be¬
cause they have too few friends :s
and som* because they have too
many.
The telephone has conferred
more benefits upon mankind than
all the political orators that ever
talked through their hats.
It’s a good chi tg that man
wants but little here below, for
women wants the balance.
The pork packer has a queer
way of doing business. After
kilting a hog he cures it.
It takes time just ten years
to become a decade.
Love’s burden may be heavy,
but there is never any complaint.
A hungiy niau usually disre
gardsall ruiesof table etiquette.
It’s too late to spare when
all is spent.
A phonograph is a machine
that talks back aud every mar¬
ried man firmly believes that
he got one for a wedding pres
An exchange fells of n man
in the town who was blessed
with twius— both boys, Me
christened them Peter and Re¬
peater. Another blessing of a
]i k e nature occurred something
over h year later—both girls,
and he named them Kate and
Duplicate. But the next case
of twins was a puzzle to him

MAKE COMPANIONS OF
YOUR CHILDREN.
"That" said a distinguished
gentleman in the writers prt-s
euca as he pointed to an elderly
uiau and his grandson, walk¬
ing arui in arm ; ‘is one of the
most pleasing sights I ever wit¬
nessed. < e
•‘Yes, I replied and one of
the latest. • 4 Yet it shall not
be a rare sight every father
should, 80 manage his boys as
to never let them drift from
him make of your eon a dutiful
child, a loving friend and a
tru^om companion. Show him
every day that you love him,
i hat you have his welfare at
heart and that he can trust you
with every secret of his heart,
his every ambition lies every
and aspiration. Keep him
w ith you and you can lead him
pa.'-t ni'Uiy a dangerous pitfall
where the blasted hopes of
many a prouceing youth. Keep
-ltd you, confide in
te ii t,jm when troubles
ut-.e *er». and you will have
i d a help such as can
U uad i;o* none other.
Don't hold back front your
boys love, kindness and affec¬
tion: don't treat them in such a
manner that they will be anx¬
ious to get away from you, don't
treat them so that they will fear
and despise for it is an awful
thing for a son to hate a father,
and there are few such instan¬
ces where the father is not to
blattio.
Teach your boy that polite¬
ness is better than ill manners,
teach him that kindness is bet¬
ter than ill nature, teach him
that honesty is the best under
all circumstances, teach huu
that a good name is more val¬
uable than wealth, teach kirn
that a hypocrite is tho basest of
God creatures and that brazen
candor is despicable.
Keep him with you, teach
him to kuow himself aud help
him to be a matt.
People think it fanatical
when you tell them that
mission cause ia the out great,
enterprise of the world, £ U {,
why should it seem unreason*
hit? Is tt not a pi,tin simple
truth? When you hire a man
aud pay hint his wages, is it
fanatical to expect him to work
tor you? The world was under
condemnation of death because
of sin: Christ came and redeem¬
ed the world with his life and
death, inaugurated the great
plan of salvation and turned it
over to matt So occupy and car¬
ry forward till become. Aftei
we are bought with a price, is
it fanatical to say tba* we
should he true to our obligations?
Tho only work Christ has for u*
io do it redeem the world from
siu, the work of the great mis¬
sion cause, and we cannot be
true men without being true
to that cause.—Ex.
Mr. Editor.—Please allow me
space in your valuable paper to
thank my many friends and
neighbors for the kinduest
shone me iu u»y wife’s last
illness. She has been in de¬
clining health for several years,
until about three months ago,
when bhe was afflicted with
dropsy and she gradually grew
w'erse until the night of May
12th. when the death Angel
came aud took her home to
glory to rust fiom her troubles
io this world. She never liked
lor attention by my neighbors,
and I pray God's richest bless¬
ings ou them all. I am satie
tied that she is
Ah1**i> in Jtfltib bleflsed sleep,
From which none erer wake to weep.
May God bless you all it my
prayers. This May 23rd. 3900.
Yours very truly,

A Kansas goose which h id
faithfully stuck to business dur¬

eggs, complained that she was
not appreciated. "See that ban

nobody is saying a word about

THE WORK OF A NEWSPAPER.

S Blackwell discussed

Among other things, he declar¬
ed that “the printing office is
school, college and university
for the brightest intellects of
every age,” and said:
'•A, newspaper office is a
school of usefulness. No oth¬
er class serves a community so
well and so often for so little
pay, either in cash or apprecia¬
tion Every day and night the
newspaper is doing free work
for the general betterment of
of the community. If a lawyer
was called upon by the city au¬
thorities to do for the city the
same amount and do more val¬
uable writing than that which
every newspaper does free every
day the charge would be tf >0 oi

Diligence is a fair fortuue,

The person who argues with
a liar has about as much sense

mud to paint his wagon.
It is not so much the amount
of our income, as the manner
of our living, that should con¬
stitute our riches.
One reason why happiness is
so scarce in this world is be*
cause most people mistake
pleasure for happiness.
