ADAM'S LONELY BOYHOOD.
AH AFFECTUM FICTTJXE OH THE OBIGI
WAX. H4JBHIED XAK.
Adam as a boy, we admit owing te
the popular ' superstition that has
painted him coming into the world
full grown, with whiskers and mous
tache complete, and the . prevailing
belief that there wasn't a lxy in the
world until Eve came and raised the
"Old Boy with Adam; yet we prefer
to think of our ancient progenitor
as having had something of a boyhood,
and we suppose we have as good a
right t J theorize upon the subject as
'anyone else.
; Adam was probably as mischievous
naturally, as boys generally are. In
fact, Darwin says he was a ''perfect
little monkey," which, we believe, is
a synonym for mischievousness the
" world over. But he had no compan
ions in his gambols. If he stayed
out after dark and got to cutting up,
it was all by himself. And what
sport could he have ringing door-bells
without a lot of other boys to scamper
away with? And consider the mel
macuouy iun 01 listening corus across
the walk at night with nobody to trip
l 11 f r a J
over them.
We can imagine young Adam, with
, all the instincts of a boy two inches
thick In his nature, looking about for
some way to divert himself as other
boys do, and whimpering to himself
'Can't have any fun."
Of course he couldn't by any pos
sibility have any fun. No fun run
ning away from school, or stealing
flT tyt W, In aurimminv tinsAii0A 41iaa
was no one to lick him when he got
home. No fun sneaking up into the
haymow to indulge in a surreptitious
game of euchre alwavs had to 4,Dlav
it alone." He couldn't play "tag,
because he might yell, "I've got the
tag',' all day, and there would be no
one to come and take it nwav from
' him.' 'Hi-spi" had no charm, for a
, boy soon gets tired of hiding when
he has to go to work to find himself.
And where is a boy who likes to work
"and "find himself."
The more we think about Adam's
lonely boyhood, the more we are in-
-.1 '. .. .1 A. : A l. " Tl. l
tuuuu w i)uy nun. lie never Knew
what a circus meant, at least not until
ti . . . . . .
vcuuv auu iiiuuuuv.xu uiui tu out;.
But we have nothing to do with that
now, as we are only treating of
Adam't) boyhood. True, there was
a big menagerie all around him, but
the animals were taine affairs ; lambs
and lions lying down together in the
most spiritless concord, and the hip
popotamuses and canary birds play
ing with each other like kittens . Lit
tle Adam never sat way up on the
highest seat,' and gazed awe-stricki:n,
while a man in spangled tights sprang
whip in hand, into a ctge of sayage
beasts that rolled their eyes, gnashed
their teeth, and roared until the can
vas overhead flapped for very fear. 4
No, indeed. lie never saw a thin
legged female in short skirts, ride a
loping horse around a ring and jump
through a hoop, while a man with his
face painted white, and his mouth a
red exaggeration, tells that convulsive
story about stuffing hay into his shoes
to fill them out, and his calves going
down to eat the hay. Young Adam
never saw "the old clown," 1 hough
he came very scon after Adam's day,
. and the jokes he commenced with he
has been getting ofTevcr since.
And how about base ball? Do you
suppose that Adam knew anything
about that exhilarating diversion that
is now doing so much toward develop
ing the intellect of our American
youth? There is no lkelihood of it,
not while he was a Iwy. His son
Cain, however, seems to have been
the first who got np a "club' but it
w.. .1 J1A,L. L 1 ii . 1 1
While there were so many ' things
that the boy Adam missed, think not
that his solitary life was without its
compensations. There was no other
boy to steal his marbles, or hide his
top, or jeer at him because he had to
jwear his big brother's cast-off clothes,
. or fix a bent pin for him to sit down
on, or make faces at bis sister,or spell
him down, or steal his dinner, 'kor tell
on him when he had been in mischief,
or beat him out of his sweetheart.
Adam eecaped these and a thousand
other annoyances that boys subject
each other to. He hadn't any brothers
and sisters to tease and worry him,
and with whom he was compelled to
divide his play-things and any nice
4 things to eat that might come that
way. He could leave a piece of sweet-,-cake
lying around anywhere, knowing
that none of thereat of the children
would touch it; an i at night, on re
tiring; he could stick his "gum" on
to the head:board, confident that it
would rest undisturbed until morn-
Jpg . :""
.Whatever trouble and annoyances
; his matrimonial life may have brought
him, we find a kind of satisfaction in
. reflecting that Adam's boyhood was
.h exceptionally free from care, and on
. that account we are bound to con
clude that his life was not an entire
failure. " :: ':

' .
State of Missouri, )
Executive Department. j
It is proper we should give thanks
to Almighty God for the innumera
ble blessings bestowed on us during
the past year. We should manifest
our gratitude that we have been spar
ed from civil commotion, and that
the pestilence which "walketh at
noonday"- has not darkened our
homes with sorrow.
The labors of the husbandman have
been rewarded and all branches of in
dustry seem to revive. I, John S.
Phelps, gcvernor of Missouri, do
therefore designate and set apart
Thursday, the 28th day of this month,
as a day of thanksgiving and prayer,
I request the people on that day to
abstain from their usual secular pur
suits, and to assemble in their places
of public worship to return thanks to
Almighty God for blessings He he
has bestowed on us, and to pray for
their continuance, and that His mer
cy may abide with us forever.
In testimony whereof I have here
unto set my hand and caused to be
affixed the great seal of the State of
Missouri. Done at the City of Jeffer
son this sixteenth day of November,

WIT AND HUMOR.
You cannot make a point clearer
by straining it.
A loan woman: One who has
money out at interest.
A private tooter : A recruit who
plays the trombone.
It is superfluous to tella toper to
"puli in his horns."
The most perfect type of "sweet
home" is the beehive.
Men of eye-dears: Loalers who
stare a pretty women.
Even a blacksmith's bellows lomc
times comes to blows.
How to make a noise in the world :
Strike for a blacksmith.
A new year and the time forswear

"Music hath charms" and so hath

Caught in the act an actor arrest

What a mockery to tell a man

There are men so constitutionally
dull that a blister will not make them
smart.
We arc most paradoxical creatures.
We use blotting paper to keep from
blotting paper.
A philosopher says that great want
proceeds from great wealth. We
know better than that.
A fellow in Chicago, who bit off
half of a man's nose, was bound over
to keep the piece.
Why is an honest bankrupt the
same as a dishonest one? Because
they both fail to make money .
The borrowing fiend, who is always
a little short of change, is an enemv
to whom no quarter should be shown.
The danger signals put up by the
weather department of the arm' warn
people to look out for borrowed um
brellas. The thirst for continual novelty
makes people throw away good alma
nacs at the end of every year and buy
new ones.
There is no mistaking a real gen
tleman. When he approaches a free
lunch table he always wants a napkin
and a chair.
It is said that one of the bravest
officers in the Russian army signs his
name with his mark. He must be a
soldier of the cross.
The leaves ot trees, like summer
boarders with bills unpaid, lake their
departure, leaving their trunks be

This intoxicating statement is from
the Cincinnati Saturday Night.
"Grant got sick of hides when he was
a tanner; and he gets Heidsick yet,
occasionally."
Do you want billiards to advance
two dollars per bill? and opera tick

ten dollars per ulst? Then vote the
opposition ticket.
Philosophers say that shutting the
eyes makes the sense of hearing more
acute. A wae savs that this accounts
for the many closed eyes that are to
be seen in church.
A word to the wise is sufficient,
and yet there are preachers who will
pay their congregations the doubtful
compliment of talking at them for two
hours.on a stretch. N. O. Pic.

The Sun For 1879. 1
The Sun Will be printed every diijMJur-
lng the year to come. la purpose ana
method will be the same as in tiw past;
To present all the news in a readable
ghape, ana to leu uie iruiu uiuugu ura

The Sun has Been, la, ana win continue
to be independent oi everyooay ana
everything save the Truth and its own
convictions of duty. That is the only
policy widen an honest newspaper neeu
have. That Is the policy which has won
for this newspaper the cunttdence and
friendship of a wider constituency than
was ever enjoyed by any otner American
Journal. .
The Sun is the newspaper for the peo-
nle It is not for the rich man azulnst the
poor man, or lor tne poor man agamsi.
the rich man. nut it geeks to no equal
justice to all interests in the community.
ic is not Uie urc;m vi any person, Kiuaa,
3ect or party There need be no mys
tery about its loves and hates, lit is for
the nonest mail against uie rogues every
tin'e. it is for the honest Df nvjerats as
against the dislioiiest Hepubli'Min, and
for tne nonest iiepiiDJican as against uie
dishonest Democrat. It does not take
Its cue from the utterances of any politi
cian or . political organization. It gives
its sunnort unreservedly when men or
measures are in agreement with the Con
stitution and with the principles upon
which this Kvpublic was loundcd for tne
Deonle. Whenever the Constitution and
constitutional principles are violated as
in the outrageous conspiracy oi lsii, dj
which a man not elected was placed in
the President s onlce. where he stills re-.
mains it speaks out for the right. That
la The Sun's Idea of iiidencnCeuce. In
this respect there will be no change in
its programme for 1879.
The Sun has fairlv earned the hearty
dislike of rascals, frauds, and humbi.gs of
all sorts and sizes.lt hopes to deserve mat
hatred not less in the year 1879, than in
1878, or any year gone by. Tub Sun w ill
continue to shine on the wicked with un
mitigated brightness
While the lessons of the past should be
constantly kept before the people. The
Sun does not propose to make itself in
1879 a magazine of ancient history. It is
printed for the men and women of to-day,
whose concern is chiefly with the affair
of to-day. It has both the dispos
ition and the ability to afford its read
ers the promptest, fullest, and most accu
rate intelligence of whatever in the wide
world is worth attention- To this end
the resources belonging to well-estab ish
ed prosperity will be line rally employed.
The present disjointed condition of
parties in this country, and the uncertain
ty of the future, lend an extraordinary
significance to the events of the coining
year. The discussions of the pivss, the de
bates and acts of Congress, and the move
ments of the leaders in every section of
the Heoublic w ill have a direct bearing on
the Presidential election oi ISM) an event I
w.hieh must be regarded with the j
most anxiousinterest by every patriotic
American, w hatever his political ideas j
or allegiance. To these elements ot In-j
terest may be added the probability that i
the Democrats will control bull houses of;
Congress,the increasing feebleness of the;
fraudulent Adniii)istratioti,aiid the spread ;
and strengthening everywhere of a,
healthy abhorrence of fraud ii., any form, j
To present with accuracy anil clearness:
the exact situation in each of its varying i
phases, and to expound, according to its !
well-known methods, the principle that j
should guide us through the labyrinth,
will be an important part of The .Sun's i
work lor 1879.
We have the means of making The Sun, '
as a political, a literary and a general I
newspaper, more entertaining and more i
useful than ever before; and we mean to ;
apply them rrreiy.

the scAlp,faaa become thin and tends to fall out.
It ts also a speedy restorative, and, while its use
secures a luxuriant growth of hair. It al?o bring
back tbe natural color, and gives the most com
Vlete satisfaction In the tiding. The falling sait of
the hair, the accumulations of dandruff, and the
premature change in color, are all evidences of a
diseased condition of the scalp aud the glands
which nourish the hair. To arrest these causes
the article ued must tossess medical as well as
chemical virtues, and the change must begin under
the scalp to be of permanent and lasting benefit,
tuch an article It Cahbolinic. and like many
other wonderful dUcoveries it is found to consist
cf elements almost t;t their natural state. Vetro
leuiu oil Is the artirle which is iute to work such
extraordinary n suits; but it is after it has been
chemically trett'i and completely deodorized that
it Is iu proper condition fortlie toiUU It was lit
far-off fiussia that the effect of petroleum upon the
hair was llrst observed, a iov rmuent oflicer hav
ing noticed that a partially bald-headed servant
of hi 3, when triniining th lamps, had a habit of
wiping hli oU-bt'S:nrai'd hands in bis scanty
locks, and the result was in a few months a much
finer head of black. glos hair than h ever had
before. The oil was trld ;n horses and cat lie that
had lost their hair frum the cattle plague, and the
results were as rapid they were marvelous. The
manes and even the tal) of horse, wiilch had fal
len out, were completely restored In a few weeks.
These experiments wer-.1 heralded t the world,
hut the knowledge was practically useless to the
prematurely bald and gray, a-i no one in civilized
society could tolerate use of re lined petroleum
as a dreeing far the hai . Hut the skill of one of
our own chemists has overcome the diftlculty, and,
by a process known o-ily to himself, he has, after
very elaborate and costly cxperiiuent, succeeded
In deodorlIng pi'troleuni, which renders it sus
ceptible of beine handled as daintily as the famous
tan tit cotosn. The experiments made with the
deodorized liquid on the human hair were at
tended with the most astonishing results. A few
applications where the hfilrwas thin and falling
gave remarkable tone and vigor to the scalp and
hair. Every pnrtb le of dandruff disapiwars on
the first or second driving, aud the IbpiM, so
searching In its nature, seems to ieuetratc to the
roots at once and set up a radical change from the
start. It is well known that the most beautiful
colors are made from petroleum, and by some mys
terious operation of nature the use of this article
gradually imparts a beautiful light-brown color
to the hair, which, by continued use, deepens to a
black. The color remains permanent for an In
definite length of time, aud the change is so grad
ual that the most lntlinite friends can scarcely
detect its progress, lu a word, it Is the most won
derful discovery of the age, aud well calculated
to make the prematurely bald and gray rejoice.
We advise our readers to give it a trial, feeling
satisfied that one application will convince them
of Its wonderful cffect'-,i26arjr Commercial cf
