ORIGINAL OBSERVATIONS.

It is a fact that the backbiter always
has good teeth.

Every man believes in the total de-

ravity of somebody else.

It was the lady who thought she
was going te swoon who had a faint
suspicion. oe:

‘Lhe man who is willing to do as
he would be done by, always wants to
be done by first.

Some preachers are more interested
in the way their hair is combed than
they are in the Story of the Cross.

When a man tries to open a bucket
of water with a corkscrew, then you
may know he is thoroughly aud fully
drunk,

we have got to watch out very carefully
it we expect to leave any respectable
toot prints.

A man’s character is ike a photo-
ciaphic negative—it is a blank until
it kas been subjected to the chemistry
ot circumstance.

You can get more wind out of a ten

‘cent fan than you can out of a $900

one. Its the same way with a ten cent

man.

Some people mix theiz religion with
business, but they fail to stir the same
consequently the business invariably
rises to the top. |

It may be true that people in high
spirits soon wear out, but it is cer-
tainly afmgid tact that persons con—
stantly low spirited wear other people
out.

Little things worry and fret us, A
three year old boy may keep & man in
perfect misery, whereas the preseuce of
his eighteen year old sister would be
considered a boon.

HOW THE CLUBS STAND.

Won Lost Per Cent

Every temptation resisted, every no-
ble aspiration encouraged, very sinful
inchnation repressed, every bitter word
withheld adds its little item to the im-
petus of that great movement which is
bearing us and all humanity onward to
a richer hfe, a higher character a no-
bler destiny. —Orange (Va) Observ~

| It is guilty consciences which have
caused Speaker Reed to be guarded by

detectives, for fear that somebody will

do him boldly injury as a result fof the
public indignation at his methods of
muzzling the House, He has received
threatening letters, but they were writ-
ten by a man in Washingcon merely to
cause a sensation, There ‘isn’t the
slightest probability that anybody will
kill Mr, Reed, or even hurt him. The
people know that their remedy lies in
the ballot box, and they will wait
until the Congressional elections rex
year to apply it. ,

Secretary Gago has Ist the secret
out that Mr. McKinley expects. this
eession of Congress 10 give him author-
ity to appoint a currency commission.
The House will, of course, do whatever
Mr, McKinley wants iv to do, provided
that Mr. Reed’s» cunsent b2 obtained,
but the silver Senators haven’t the
slightest idea of giving Mr. McKinley
authority to pick a vurrency commis-
sion, but they will insist that its mem-
bers shall be se’ected by the President,

that the silver mea may have a fair
representation thereon.

During the burial ot ihe remains of

William Gist in she Jefferson cemetery,’

Howard county,Friday, the solemnities
were rudely broken by the piercing
scream ef a woman, a snake of the
blue racer species aaving coiled about
her ankle. The woman kicked with
the desperation of despair, loosening
the snake’s coils and throwing it into
the crowd, where it fell on the heads of
several womenand children. The rep-
tile was finally stamped to death by
some of the men, but not until two
women had fainted from fright, waile
others had fled in dismay from the
e-metery. Chicago Chronicie.

and git me a rubber ring for the
baby to cut his teeth on.”

 

The clerk knew what would fit
the case to. a T, but he liked to have
fun with his country trade. So he
set out a collection of genuine dia- |
monds, sparkling like dewdrops in|
the morning sun, and he quadrupled
the price to make the greater sensa-
tion. |

Mary’s big cowlike eyes glistened
almost as brightly as thegems ag

The clerk fully expected to see

such circumstances, but the rustic
did nothing except to give a quick
look at his wife, which she returned
in recognition of some common in-
