THE nidNlTY OF LAltOlt.
I great deal said
V' |) j t about the dig
' WwwwWnity of labor
which is noth
inj? more than
oratorical
WrjYfMlH<gv^ common place
MW ing'.ess froth
of the rhetor
, J iJs- ician.
There is no dignity about labor
in itself. What is there about
piling bricks on top of each other,
or mixing mortar, or sewing blue
denims into overalls, or trading
earthen ja''s for nickel coin, that
has about it any inherentdignity?
It is only as there is mixed with
the mortar, or builded with the
bricks the holy cement of a moral
purpose; only as there is stitched
into the cloth the diviner thread
of hopeful love. Only as the
deed gathers the aroma of art in
spiring human life, is it a digni
fied transaction.
But when you make of the
laborer a slave, degrade Ills work
into a mere fight for bread,harass
liim by continual debt, put him
in a vile tenement house that
smothers all holy ambition, labor
has no longer dignity, it smells
rather of the dungeon and the
pit.
It is idle, and Pharisaical as
well,for us to shrug our shoulders
and say this is not a question for
the pulpit. So intimate is the
relation between the body and
the soul that every question that
has to do with the feeding or
clothing of a human body is at
the last analysis a moral question.

The independent Publishing
Company, of Morgantown, has
been granted a charter to do a
general book, job and newspaper
printing and binding business.
The capital is $500, with the
privilege of increasing to S10,
000. The incorporators are J.
Milton Hackney. Harvey Vanata.
John Alexander, Howard N
Ogden and S. B. Brown, all of
Morgantown. The company will
run a weekly* paper, and it will
"be a West Virginia University
organ.?Preston County Journal.
The above statement with re
gard to starting a new university
organ is incorrect. The new pa
per is to be started, as stated,
but it is to be an independent
county paper. At the present
time the new company has no
intention of starting a college
paper.

respects since he left Morgan
town.
It may not be possible to malte
the prize ring respectable, but
Mr. Corbett hopes to elevate the
profession considerable. Ho is
a nephew of a very popular priest
in County Mayo, Ireland, a
graduate of a college in San Fran
cisco, served as a bank clerk for
several years, is a practical tern
perence man and moves in good
society. When asked to drink
champaign after his victory he
said: "Milk is good enough for
me."
It is noi an uncommon weakness
in human naiure, after embarking
in some new cause, to lose inter
est and become indifferent about
it after the novelty has passed
off.

THE VERY LATEST.
Tho Empress of Germany has
introduced a new dress material
?chameleon velvet?which gives
two colors, yeiow-orango and
rose-pink.
An almost pointed crown and
very much curled brim Derby is
promi?ed for spring, coming in
three or four different shades.
Some of the new fans aro of
Oriental stuffs, with sandalwood
sticks, and a largo, bushy tassel
depending from tho end.
Brass photograph frames in
Florentine stylo are the newest,
and are likely to crowd tho silver
ones. Thoy am by no means
?cheap.
Bangles of silver are more or
less worn, and in patterns and |
styles the manufacturers of them
keep right up to date.
Dresden china candelabra aro
quite the fashion for dinnor table
ornamentation, and are said to
be"less monotonous than silver."
Grenadines and nets are to be
worn over light colored silk
skirts next summer, according to
the bulletin from those who
know.
The butterfly bow for tho hair
holds its own remarkably well.
Evidently that head decoration
has come to stay.
Leather colored silk hosiery is
an affectation of the girls of the
period who seem at times to be
indifferent to the?condition of the
streets.
New and beautiful goid bonnet
and hat pins are displayed among
spring novelties, manv mounted
with genuine precious stones.
Ordinary kitchen chairs, done
up with white enamel and picked
out with gilt, can now masquer
ade among colonial furniture.
Fur Rugs in the household are
more and more condemned by
physicians, "because they are an
obstacle to the laws of health."
However much little men may
object to the long-skirt frock
coat, it will continue the fashion
in London and New York.
A new kind of shoe for women
has come out christened the
"Piccadilly." It "buttons up
high." and looks best when on a
Cinderella foot.
Spring ribbons make an almost
fairy-like display. The new tints
in ombres and plaids can be pro
perly described as "dreams."
Black and white check over
gaiter, which were introduced by
Parisian swells last summer, will
appear here a little "later on."
A Columbus finger ring is
something new introduced by
Chicago jewelers, who aro of the
opinion there will be "millions
in it."

Betwen the 13th and 18th the
whole country will feel the effect
of a warm wave, and storms of
great violence are to be appre
hended ob or about the 15th, 16th
and 17th. The 17th is the cen

power, for about 20 days after
the central day, so that the Venus
characteristics ? hail, startling
electrical phenomena, enormous
downpours of rain and suddtn
changes from hot to cold?may
be looked for during all tho! dis
turbances covered by the Venus
period The disturbances from
the 13th to the 18th are not to be
prolonged by existing cause into
the reactionary storms due about
the 21st and 22d.
to cold. The 20th is the central
day of the last period for the
month, which period embraces
the 25th to the 28th, inclusive.
During this period it will grow
very warm again, and many
storms of rain, hail and thunder
will travel from the west to the
east across the continent. After
the storms look for cold and frost.
The month promises to end very
cool, and tornadoes are almost
certain to be a feature of the
storms in many places in? April.

KATES.
A Temperance Talc.
A mouse fell into a beer vat,
poor tiling', and a cat passing by
saw the struggling little creature.
The mouse said to the cat:
"Help me out of my difficulty."
? If I do, I shall eat you," said
the cat.
"Very well." replied the:
mouse; "I would rather be eaten
by a decent cat than drowned in
such a horrible mess of stuff as
this."
It was a sensible cat. and said:
"1 certainly shall eat you, and j
you must promise me on your
word of honor that I may do so."
"Very well, I will give you the
promise."
So the cat fished the mouse
out, aud. trusting to the promise,
she dropped it for an instant.
The mouse darted away and
crept into a hole in the corner,
where the cat could not get him.
"But did't you promise me I
might eat you?" said puss.
"Yes, I did," replied the mouse;
"but didn't you know that when
I made that promise I was in
liquor?"
And how many promises made
in liquor have been broken!?
