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 for a t:me, as one was a girl and the ot.b< r a boy But the difii cult} was ouercome by calling tho boj Max and the girl Cli¬ max. 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, John M. Day. litilflii Ti FITEIT Ctti Mist SS, A nORAL. A Kansas goose which h id faithfully stuck to business dur¬ ing the summer and laid sever¬ al dozen of large fawn colored eggs, complained that she was not appreciated. "See that ban ovSr there,” said the goose, “sha hasn’t laid as many eggs as I nor as big, hut she has books wiitren about and verses composed in her honor, while nobody is saying a word about me, ” 4 • The trouble with 3 ou in.” said a wise rooster who was standing near, "that you don't tell the public what you hate done.

If you want to cut any ice in tho community, you must ad¬ vertise.’ THE WORK OF A NEWSPAPER. In a sermon in the First Bap tint church, of WilUngton,, N. • last Sunday night, from the te^t: "Th. making of many books there is no end, Rev. S Blackwell discussed newspapers as well as bookst 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 more.

Diligence is a fair fortuue, and industry a good estate. ♦ -« The person who argues with a liar has about as much sense as the tuan who drives into the 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. Pi‘ot'e«si<mnl IN otic*.
