tAN OBSTACLE TO IMPROVEMENT. <lb/>
Our weekly <lb/>
Home, of Marshville, recently <lb/>
cited an observant citizen of that <lb/>
progressive town as saying <lb/>
the world is wade bigger when <lb/>
; men die. At first thought, <lb/>
it seems a heartless thing say <lb/>
If not an untruth. Yet the ob- <lb/>
servant citizen stated a truth <lb/>
proved it, and there is hard- <lb/>
too harsh to say of <lb/>
that of people m be de- <lb/>
scribes, those who selfishly <lb/>
stand in the way of improve- <lb/>
or who lire continually <lb/>
knocking at step toward <lb/>
material <lb/>
or mi <lb/>
The gentleman in question <lb/>

and refuse to II unless it is to <lb/>

places a prohibitive price on it. <lb/>

The gentleman has proved his <lb/>

An unsolved mystery surrounds <lb/>
the death of J. C. which <lb/>
occurred Sunday night. The <lb/>
is was It a case suicide <lb/>
was it That question <lb/>
may never be solved, but there are <lb/>
some who will never believe it was <lb/>
a case of suicide. <lb/>
The facts as we have them from <lb/>
the corner and other sources are <lb/>
that on Sunday evening about <lb/>
nightfall his mother called <lb/>
informed him supper was ready, <lb/>
tie answered from out about the <lb/>
gate that lie would be in. <lb/>
He din not come. Next morning <lb/>
his younger brother started out in <lb/>
search of him, he met a hoy <lb/>
him his brother's <lb/>
were on a fence which was <lb/>
around a well at a log camp some <lb/>
distance away in the woods. This <lb/>
was found to be true. Dr. Joshua <lb/>
Tayloe, the was sent for. <lb/>
He went lo the scene, which is in <lb/>
direction of from here, <lb/>
and about nine miles. A jury was <lb/>
summons and body taken from <lb/>
the well and viewed. The well <lb/>
was only a hole dug the ground <lb/>
about eight or ten feet deep and <lb/>
water two of the top of <lb/>
the ground; the body was stand- <lb/>
up with head shoulders <lb/>
bent forward. head in this <lb/>
Condition was within a foot of the <lb/>
surface. Poles had in time been <lb/>
thrown in the old well and with <lb/>
small effort be might have rescued <lb/>
himself, if able to make an <lb/>
The jury returned a verdict that <lb/>
lie came to death by causes <lb/>
known to them. <lb/>
He was in perfect health, the <lb/>
best of spirits and nothing unusual <lb/>
observed about him. <lb/>
As far as known he had had no <lb/>
trouble with e. some <lb/>
time ago he had tumble with sonic <lb/>
parties under the charge of having <lb/>
ruined a under promise of <lb/>
marriage. It is said that on one <lb/>
occasion some one burned some <lb/>
stacks of hay d fodder tor him. <lb/>
Some think there was play <lb/>
and tint he was unconscious when <lb/>
put in well as an <lb/>
evidence that he moved. X i <lb/>
signs could be d at <lb/>
or near the well. We are the <lb/>
opinion that a post ex- <lb/>
ought lo be held <lb/>
order to establish the cause of his <lb/>
death if possible. This would be <lb/>
best as it would relieve in <lb/>
case do evidence of foul play could <lb/>
be as there was none to be <lb/>

You Must <lb/>

If you cannot, it is chic to an <lb/>
irritated or congested state of <lb/>
the brain, which will soon <lb/>

Nature demands sleep, and <lb/>
it is as important as food; it <lb/>
is a part of her building and <lb/>
sustaining process. This period <lb/>
of unconsciousness relaxes the <lb/>
mental and physical strain, and <lb/>
allows nature to restore ex- <lb/>
vitality. <lb/>

refreshing sleep, because it <lb/>
soothes the irritation and re- <lb/>
moves the congestion. <lb/>
It is also a nerve builder J it <lb/>
nourishes and strengthens <lb/>

creates energy in all the organs. <lb/>

FELLOWSHIP OF DOGS. I <lb/>
Always Hope For a Man Who Is Fond <lb/>
of an Ordinary Cur. <lb/>
I have seen n few wretches in my <lb/>
day, never saw one so utterly <lb/>
lost to decency he could not be <lb/>
flattered by the friendly attentions j <lb/>
of a strange dog. There is a great <lb/>
lesson in that. No matter how <lb/>
c try to seem to ourselves <lb/>
and others, a small voice within us <lb/>
will not let us wholly forgot what <lb/>
we are. In the presence <lb/>
of our kind we are brawn. The <lb/>
calm of a child sometimes <lb/>
our self The <lb/>
knowing look of a c it. <lb/>
There is something in brute <lb/>
that perplexes the <lb/>
man and his in- <lb/>
tuition. Man is so made that what <lb/>
he understand exercises <lb/>
greater over him than that <lb/>
which he can. In the presence of <lb/>
many phenomena he reveals himself <lb/>
openly and quite unconsciously. He <lb/>
is then no longer master of the <lb/>
of his soul. He drops his <lb/>
grotesque outer garb- <lb/>
his brazen shield falls to the ground, <lb/>
and he cowardly retreats or <lb/>
succumbs without resistance. <lb/>
There is some hope for the man <lb/>
who is capable of feeling ashamed <lb/>
in the presence of an honorable dog. <lb/>
That man bus avenues open to him <lb/>
for advancement His soul is still <lb/>
fit for expansion. His brain is some- <lb/>
thing more than a dried nut. His <lb/>
heart has not turned entirely into a <lb/>
thing rubber and valves. When <lb/>
a strange dog greets him he thinks <lb/>
better of himself. Unconsciously he <lb/>
that am, I am <lb/>
not so bad after all as I might be. <lb/>
You can't fool I and a dog is no <lb/>
hypocrite. Therefore have good <lb/>
in me which he The <lb/>
fellow i.- a little surprised at him- <lb/>
self and not a little flattered. If a <lb/>
noble dog shows him marked favor <lb/>
he becomes almost <lb/>
mediately. If several dogs should <lb/>
great preference and <lb/>
for hie person he would soon <lb/>
unendurable to society <lb/>
quite too vain for association with <lb/>
men. Contrariwise, should dogs <lb/>
bark him generally or perchance <lb/>
should one bile him lie would not <lb/>
feel himself good enough to <lb/>
ate with snakes, but would forth- <lb/>
with get himself locked up as a <lb/>
of hysterical rabies, and if he <lb/>
kinfolk <lb/>
they would at once insist upon <lb/>
the dog put to death. <lb/>
For own part have learned <lb/>
a great deal from dogs. If I am <lb/>
set me the example in <lb/>
. early childhood. If I am faithful to <lb/>
a friend through his disgrace and <lb/>
disaster I cannot deny that a dog re- <lb/>
pealed this nobility of character to <lb/>
me for the first time in my life. If <lb/>
have gratitude, I saw it tint in a <lb/>
dog. If have enterprise, he did <lb/>
not neglect my early lessons. If I <lb/>
have initiative, so had my first <lb/>
friend. If I am affectionate, so was <lb/>
he. If I nm patient in adversity <lb/>
without arrogance In affluence <lb/>
I could have acquired this noise <lb/>
of mind better from men than from <lb/>
dogs. If am watchful over weak- <lb/>
entrusted to my cure, if I nm <lb/>
forgetful of self in guarding my be- <lb/>
loved, if I have the courage of <lb/>
convictions, if I have any heroic in- <lb/>
could have had no better <lb/>
than a dog. Indeed love <lb/>
of dogs, association and ex- <lb/>
filled my life with joy. <lb/>

Bill writing some years <lb/>

never took a paper that <lb/>
didn't pay me more than I paid <lb/>
for it. On an old friend of <lb/>
mine started a paper way down <lb/>
South and sent a copy to me and <lb/>
I subscribed just to encourage <lb/>
him after awhile it publish- <lb/>
ed an order to sell a lot at public <lb/>
auction. So I about <lb/>
the lot and told a friend to run <lb/>
it up to He bid off the lot <lb/>
at and sold it in less than a <lb/>
month for so I made <lb/>
clear by taking that paper. My <lb/>
father told me that when he was <lb/>
a young man he saw a notice in <lb/>
a paper that a school teacher <lb/>
was wanted away off in a distant <lb/>
county, and he went and Rot the <lb/>
situation, and a little girl was <lb/>
sent to him, and after awhile she <lb/>
grew up sweet and beautiful and <lb/>
he married her. Now if he had <lb/>
not taken that paper what do <lb/>
