That is the high prerogative that belongs to the splendid Democracy of the State, and it is one that I could not usurp if I would and I would not if I could.

When a merchant gives his paper to the bank for a loan, it may not be sala ble outside t!i9 merchant's community, because the merchant's standing may not be widely known. That is why so much of the piper our banks deal in is of strictly local character, and is value less as an asset when the bank needs funds to accommodate customers. If we had a System for giving sucb paper a national market, as it has abroad, this difflulty would be removed. At present our tanks prefer stoeks and bonds to commercial paper as security, because they can more readily convert stocks and bond into funds when in need. No reform of our banking system will be fair to tbe merchant or to the whole business community which does not put commercial paper in the place it de serves, as the very best basis of credit.

How we listen to hear you calL IIow we miss you darling baby, one we loved so dear to all, we have lost our darling boy, be has bid us all adieu. lie has gone to live in heaven, and his presents are lost to view. O, that darling, how we loved him. O, how hard to give him up, but an angel come down from heaven and summoned him from our flock. His busy hands are folded, his work on earth is done, his tasks are all ended, bis heavenly crown is won, past his suffer ing, past his pain ceased to weep for tears are rain, calm the tempest of your breast for he who suffered is now at rest. Painlessly he bore his suffering, loving hands did all they could, but God took him from our family, as dear mother thought. lie would just cross the silver river, over in tbe Happy land, where there is no pain, no parting, that will grieve God's chosen band. Funeral ser vices were conducted at the family graveyard at one o'clock by Sister Burk. There is sorrow felt in every heart for the brtie parents over the loss of their ch ild, aged two years. Nettie Shearer. Wealth. I'd like to be rich there is pleasure in money, It's good stuff to have and it's good stuff to spend; It helps you to pay for your milk and your honey I'd like to be rich, but I'd never be willing . T6 pay such a price as some men do for gold; The cost is too high and the pace is too killing, And too many things must be barter ed and sold. I'd like to be rich and I wonder who wouldn't; And yet if it cost me what some peo ple pay. I'd try to be rich and I'd find that I couldn't. There is too much worth while that is lost by the way To sacrifice friends and ideals to render My heert and my conscience, my soul and my mind, And sell all my dreams for a dollar- marked splendor Would leaye me loo poor for the rich es I'd find. I'd like to have wealth if I made it by toiling Or keenness and cleverness canny but fair, But never by cheating and spoiling; I'd like to be rich but I'd rather be square.

Many of them brought on big stocks of holiday gifts and the like and they were for the most part disposed of. The out-of-town trade came fully up to expetations while the town people bought heavily. Most of the sales were of the substantial kind and very little money was foolishly spent. There was very little shooting of firecrackers and the like and the Christmas just ended was a sane one in every respect, to tbe credit of eur people be it said.
