Just a Hint. -
"Now, men." said the genial em
ployer, as his hands clustered round
him at the breakfast hour, "this is
the election, and I hope you are all
going to vote. Now, I'm not going to
tell who my favorite candidate is. Ev
ery one of you is to be entirely free
to vote as he thinks best. But do you
see that big barrel of beer over in the
corner? Well, that barrel won't be
opened unless X gets in."
Almost Perfect Ideal.
A faithful friend of all that is best,
a brave sufferer from incurable bur
dens, in a private letter sends this con
fession, which, we commend to those
more favored of circumstances, less
consecrated in the center stances of
life: "My ideal is every day to spread
a little truth, a little kindness, a little
beauty, but alas, how often I fail!"

was fairly well attended by member

Frank Noid, a well-known character
abont town popularly known as "Cat

Bad Habit to Cultivate.
The habit of dissipating every seri
ous thought by a suggestion of agree
able sensations Is as fatal to happi
ness as to virtue; for when amuse
ment is uniformly substituted for ob
jects of moral and mental interest,
we lose all that elevates our enjoy
ments above the scale of childish
pleasures. Anna Maria Porter.
Best Household Gods.
The man of high descent may love
the halls and lands of his inheritance
as a part of himself, as trophies of his
birth and power; the poor man's at
tachment to the tenement he holds,
which strangers have held before and
may tomorrow occupy again, has a
worthier root. 6tuck deep into a
purer soil. His household gods are
of flesh and blood, w ith no alloy of sil
ver, gold or precious stones. Charlea
Dickena

USING DRAG AND SCRAPER
TO IMPROVE STREET SURFACE
Street Commissioner James Rix be
gan some street work Monday which
promises improvement of the surface
of Beach street and others of the i
city streets and avenues if it comes
up to his expectations. This work
consists of the use of a drag, or har
row, in connection with the road
scraper. The scraper alone does not
cut deep enough or put the surface in
a condition for a reunion of the "ma
terials as will the- use of the drag.
In many places the streets are al
ready too high and where this is the
case the material cut loose by drag
and scraper is removed to some other
portion of the street where it' will be
of advantage.
