'1 he noisy celebration of the Fourth is <tefended oti the ground j of the joy which it affords to the small boy. Is it wise to train the small boy to take selfish delight " hich inflicts needless and cruel discomfort upon others? Is it wise to encourage him in the invasion of others rights—and this on Independ ence day, the day of all days in the I year sacred to the principle of equal-; ity of indvidual rights under the ' law? The stupidity of celebration con sisting ot mere noise is becoming clearer year by year. The pistol and cannon have been outlawed. Next year, perhaps, the vulgar ex plosive enne will go, and then the „ loud and dangerous firecracker.

It wasn’t a Missouri editor, but a printer’s devil, who was going through his first experience in “niak ing up forms. The paper was late and the boy got the galleys mixed. I he first part of the obituary notico of a pectin ions citizen had been i dumped into the forms, and the ' next handful of type came off of a i galley describing a recent tire. It read like this; “ | he pallbearers i lowered the body to the grave and ns it was consigned to the Haines there were few if any regrets, lor the old wreck has been an eyesore to the town for years. Of course there was individual loss, but that was f„||y covered by insurance.” Hie widow thinks the editor wrote the obituary that way because the lamented partner of her joys and sorrows owed him five years’ sub scription. 1'**;** Hh'en.,,s n**«*bm« Hiipcrlor Insurance supplies, for their oinoe or customer*, should correspond with the KoUuh Notes Co i„. dianapoltn, lnd., puhiishersof Rouoh Nones the lfadin< inso1.1not* Journal of the West and other publication*.

Some time since a man from up in the wilds of Tug Kiver landed in Kenova. While meandering around he landed in the drug store. He mistook the drug store for the depot, for walking up to. the pre scription window he called for a ticket to Athens, (). The genial K. Ney Williams politely informed him that he had gotten into the wrong place-. After having asked for directions to the passenger sta tion, as to how to enter the build ing* from whom to purchase his ticket, whether or not trains cross the river on that ’ere hig “foot bridge,” etc., and being given the desired information, the stranger began glancing around the store. His eyes rested upon the largo bot tles upon the shelves. lie inquired “what kind of drinks is in them lhar bottles.” Mr. Williams ex plained to him that the bottles con tained liquids, powders, etc., used in the preparation of medicines which would cure any disease from baby's colic to bubonic plague. He then wanted to know all about the soda fountain, what made it spit like a cat when the little faucet was turned on, etc. Mr. Williams asked the fellow if he bad tasted soda wa ter and he replied that he used to put soda in vinegar and thus made “soda water” that tasted very well, but that he had never drank any made in the new fangled way. Mr. Williams invited him to have an ice cream soda. Asked to the flavor desired, as he had a “slight” head ache thought he would take a juni per berry. Of course this flavor is not carried in stock, so pineapple was substituted. 'I he mountaineer drank the soda with a gr-at relish, and remarked that should he again visit Kenova he would give Mr. Williams another call. y M, KKPOKTKB. Gencrel Witcher i* Dead.
