Gea HEADED OFF BY ‘PHONE. Here’s Tip to the Modern Young Man Who Has a Rival. T onmemmeeneil “Jags my infernal luck,” growl- ed one of our most elirible bach- elors as he threw himself ona couch and jooked daggers at his closest friend, as though he were the dispenser of fate, says the Detroit Free Press. “Ifa fellow wants to get married and felfill his proper destiny io life, fortune trips him up and makes a fool of him. You know that I’ve popped to three cr four girls and in every case I’ve been just too late. You may put ic down now that if I ever marry a woman she will do the pioposing and make all tne preliminary arrangements.” “Scored another failure?” “Yes, lost by an eyebrow, as usual. You recall that divine creature I pointed out to you from the club window the other day. That little RuCdins aod 1 have both been sweet on her— rivals. | suppose you would say: I ealled where she is visiting early last evening to put my fate to the test. While I was screwing my courage up to the sticking point and trying to separate her from the other people there she was called by one of the servants. She cane back looking so rosy and sweet that I pushed matters, pilcted her to 9 side veranda and told her, with al] the gush and seatimentalism of some callow youth, how [loved her, how I could not live without. her. She never jooked more beautiful than when she told me how sorry she was to cuuse me pain, but ehe had just accepted Mr. Ruddins by telephone. It was to talk with him that she had been called by the servant,to the hat rack and out of the house I went the best I could. The impudent tittle ras- cal ; he knew I was going there, for I told him myseif, and I wert early for the express purpose of heeding him off. No other man would have had the cold nerve to propose by telephone. If any girl wants me after this she knows where ito find me.” EE The everage Southera editor usually oppores lynching for a “nameless crime” when he writes bat when be talks he “depiores the necessity that exists,” ete. The truth is that, onder existing conditions, a majority of the white people of the South do not Oppose lynching in extreme cases. The best evidence of this is the fact that a Southera jury that would conyict a man charged vith lynching a negro who had committed the most horrible crime known to civilization would bea living curiosity.—Wilming- ton Btar. | ne When biliou: er oostive, eat a Uns aret, candy cathartic, cure constipa- )AILY REFLECTOR ‘| bas in ber possession the sword PEOPLE ALL ABOUT.

Hear More, Say Less. Emerson once remarked that nature had given to men one tongue but two earsthat we might hear from others twice as much as we speak The man who re- verses this rule rule and speaks twice as much as_he hearse, will soon find that his worde excite little pleasure or interest in his auditors, for no man can give more than he gets without soon- er or tater reducing himself to poverty —Cumberland Presbyte- rian. ee a ee False Pride. When you see a youth who will do any sort of work, no matter how menial it may be, rather than be.idie, you can make up your mind that he amounts to symethiag. The young man who would starve before he would do anything beneath what he con- ceives to be his dignity is not made of the richt kind of stuff to cut much of a figure in this life. Ail honest toil ig honorable. There is nothing so morally de- grading as that aversion tu man- ual labor which is usually acom- bination of laziness and conceit. —Herald and Presbyter.

Farther, some of Senator But- ler’s closest and best friends are swearing they are done with Skinner and all other minority Populists. They say if Skinner comes into their. conventions and tries to participate in the pro- ceedings they will eitaer bave him pat out or go out themselves.
