The people of our land should be thankful for one thing if nothing more, and that is the results of the elections many parts of this country. Never was there such an uprising of the element of our citizens with the avowed purpose of crushing the spirit of bossism, of routing corrupt office holders from office, and of inaugurating a regime of decency and pure government. It had come to a pass where some thing had to done to rid the conn try of corruption, and the voters did it. There been scarcely any election where partisan was so thoroughly discarded and where the people arose en and demanded a change.

Unto It Faithful to Him Evan the Very Last. Once there was a woman who was a shadow. She was colorless and Hat and uninteresting, but she was glad to be a shadow, because she was his shadow. paid very little attention to his shadow. When he noticed her he was quite interested and made experiments to verify her at- to him, such as trying to get away from her, stamping on her, making extravagant gestures for her to follow and the like. But when lie had satisfied himself that she could not be other than constant to him ha ceased to notice her at all. Sometimes on his way home at sunset he would glance at her and wonder why she never seemed to exist in the middle of the day. Sometimes in the moonlight, after the work and pleasure of the day, he would feel the company of her familiar presence, or in the firelight he would smile at her fantastic with something of his old time interest, for it was firelight that the shadow was in tier glory. When he sat down to rest before the blazing logs she would dance for joy, throwing out all the of her nature in quaint shapes and rhythms, waving, bending, flick- till he covered the fire and she slipped upstairs after him by the pale candlelight. In public of course no one noticed the shadow. She was contented that she was his, and he was used to the fact that she would always be there, and society is not lighted with ref- to bringing out shadows. Finally there came a last time for going upstairs behind him. lie went up weakly, like an old man, and as he spied his shadow trembling be- hind him he stopped to wonder what would become of her when he was gone. When he was carried down- stairs, long and still, his shadow followed, long and still, behind him. Atlantic. Courting, Old Style. There is not a country bred man or woman now living but will tell you life can oiler nothing com- parable with the innocent zest of that style of courting that was done at singing school in the star- light and candlelight of the first half of the century.

Drinking Water. A rational habit of drinking will improve health and preserve it. Cold water Is good for some and warm water for others. The former stimulates the membranes of the stomach and the latter soothes them, so it becomes a matter of choice to suit the system. Neither one should be taken rapidly. Sip- ping is the healthful When the taste of water is unpleasant to the palate it is improved by add- a pinch salt or a dash of on juice, and a pinch of soda with lemon juice is hotter still.

There is something to lie said for Burma. If the Burmese husband and the Burmese wife come to the conclusion that they have increased the marriage rate their procedure is simple and direct. The wife does not go to her so- but to the tallow chandler. From him she obtains two little can- These she brings home, and she and her husband sit down on the floor, placing the candles be- tween them. One candle represents the husband, one the wife. They are lighted at the same moment, and the owner of the one which goes out leaves the house, only his or her clothes, while the owner of the more enduring can- remains, also the owner of the house and all that therein is. Thus divorce becomes simple and charming, it will be observed that, the wife always selects the candles. Chicago Law Journal. HORSES MULES. We will k.-i mil f mi on all the season.
