We have insurgents in all the walks of life as well as in politics. An insurgent is one wlio lias an insubordinate and rebellious dis position. He likes io he disagree able and to kick np trouble. He is happy only when doing his best to make himself and everybody else miserable. lie loves to find fault, ami acts 011 the theory that the world can be scolded into perfec tion. He is so certain that the world is going to ruin that any attempt to reassure him is taken as an insult to his sagacity. An insurgent in a household keeps the whole family in an up roar. Everything displeases him. He sniffs the air for bad orders and scowls at everything, and looks about eagerly for something to com plain of. It is not in his nature to praise or •commend. Perfections offends him more than faults. He thinks he is doing his duty only when frowning and scolding. This fault-finding is a disease. It is the jaundice of the soul. What the world needs is encouragenent. The wish to approve, to scatter joy and not pain about you, makes you hopeful and agreeable, puts color into you cheeks and a kindly curl iu the corners of your mouth. The insurgent's liver is out of order, and that makes him think that the country is going to the dogs. He does not count the blessings of life. He is constantly snooping around to find something to grumble about, and the greatest calamity that could happen him would be failure to find it. He is an, owl, that loves the darkness, and his hoot is always melancholy. To jeer and sneer is devilish. To appreciate and to praise is angelic. Beware of the person who sniffs. What is the use in whining about the faults and imperfections of the world? God made it so. You cannot change it. You will do well to correct a single one of your own faults, much less all the faults of the world: ''To reform a man,"says Victor Hugo, "you must begin with his grandmother." Every man should practice his reform theories on himself. The natural born insurgent, the grumbler, fault-finder and pessi mist—never smiles. lie only grins. He has a hard, sad, meat-axe ex press-ion which stabs the joys of life and gives you the impression that his shoes hurt his feet. These people we have always had in the world, and always will, and Ave must endure them. But we should not be lead into the dark caverns of their gloomy philosophy, strewn with skulls and dead men's bones. Let up keep in the sunlight. Let us thank Heaven for the manifold blessings of of life, for the good men and true women who people the world, and let our eyes be turned .always towards the dawn. Let ns seek rather to correct our own faults than to exaggerate those of our neighbors. Blessed be that man and beloved of all the gods, who neither sniffs nor snoops.—Punxsy Spirit. "Hume years ago while at MarHnsbnrg, W. Va., I was taken with cholera morbus which was followed by diarrhoea. The doctor's medicine did uie no good. I was advised to get a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, which I did, and it cured lue sound and well—G. A. Morris, F.mbreeville, Pa. Sold by L Taggart.

Hinielburger, "for three genera tions of our family have used Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption aud never found it's equal tor Coughs and Colds." It's an unrivaled lite-saver when used for desperate lung diseases. Guaran teed bottles 50c aud 81.00 at L. Taggart's. Trial bottles free. Luck may carry a man across the brook if he will leap. Spreads Like Wildfire. When tilings are "the best'' they be come "the best selling." Abraham Hare, n leading druggist, of Belleville, 0., writes: "Electric Bitters are the best soiling bitters I have handled in 20 yeais." You know why? Most diseasts begin in disorders ot stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, blood and nerves.

"Last winter an infant child of mine had croup in a violent form," says Elder John W. Rogers, a Christian Evangelist, of Filley, Mo. "1 gave her a few doses ot Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and in a short time all danger was past and the I child recovered " This remedy not only ; cures croup, but when given as soou as j the first syinptons appear will prevent j the attack. It contains no opium or | other harmlul substance and may begiven j as confidently to a baby as to an adult. For sale by L. Tagaart. A hand f'nll of luck is better than a j sack full of sense. Jumped on a Ten Penny Nail. The little daughter of Mr. J. N. Powell jumped on an inverted rake made of ten penny nails, and thrust one nail entirely through her foot and a second one half way through. Chamberlain's Pain Balm was promptly applied and five minutes later the pain had disappear ed and no more suffering was experienced. In three days the child was wearing her shoe as usual and with absolutely no discomfort. Mr. Powell is a well known merchant of Forkland, Va. Pain Balm is an antiseptic and heals such injuries without maturation and in one-third the }ime required by the usual treatment. For sale by L. Taggart. Diligence is t tie mother of Gook Luck.

It has done good work for me and will do the same for others. I had a very severe cough and cold and feared I would get pneumonia, but after taking the second dose of this medicine I felt better, three bottles of it cured my cold and the pains in my chest disappeared entirely. lam most respectfully yours for health, Ralph S.

The little son of nn Episcopal clergy- ; man of Los Angeles wns visiting with I his mother a Canadian city, where the j two attended services at a certain j church. It is the custom in that church j for the clergyman and congregation to ! bow In silent prayer for a minute or ; two just before the sermon begins. It was a new proceeding to the child, for he was not accustomed to seeing this done in Ills father's church, but the Vittle chap bravely and reverently did his part. After the service was over the clergy- | man, one of the old evangelical school, j who had noticed the reverence and ap parent devotion of the child, spoke to him and commended his reverence with an affectionate pat on the head. "It was very pleasing," he remarked to a group of bystanders, "to see this little j fellow so deeply engaged in earnest | prayer just before I began m.v sermon. ! What prayer did you offer to tbrt throne | of grace, my little boy?" All unconscious of the effect it pro- j duced, the little fellow candidly and instantly replied: "I said: 'Now I lay j me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my | soul to keep.* "—San Francisco Argo naut. Birds' Rkm Superstition*. The old, wrinkled, dusky aunties of J the south tell children: "Do not eat the bluebirds' eggs. They make you love to wander." They believe that the pale blue eggs of that beautiful creature, "that violet of the air," that bird with "sky tinge on his back, earth tinge on ills breast," will make the greedy nest robber restless as long as he lives. No place, however enticing, can hold the being who has once tasted a bluebird's J egg. lie who eats a mocking bird's egg j will be compelled to "tell all he knows." j The one who robs a killdee's nest and j eats its eggs will surely break 1111 arm. j He who eats a dove's egg will be fol- j lowed by bad luck, while the egg of any j bird of yellow plumage will be sure to j cause a fever, and he who eats an owl's j egg will be always shrieking. The eat er of a crow's egg will always, as old aunties say, "be gwine on foolish like a crow does goon, 'lla, Im, ha!' But a partridge's egg," they declare, "dudes make you thrive an' grow fas'. Dey is de onlies' sort er birds' eggs dat you kin eat wldout fludin' 'em danger- 1 some." A Cockney, Bullokar, the lexicographer who gave the famous definition for "crocodile tears," was outdone by Minslien, an other dictionary maker of London, who in 1017 issued the work which gave the following amusing account ol' the or igin of the word "cockney:" "A cock ney, or cockny, applied only to one born within the sound of the How bells— that is, within the city of London— whiehe ternie came first out of the fol lowing tale: "A citizen's soune, riding with his fa ther out of London Into the country, and being a novice and merely ignorant of how oorne and catel do increase, asked when he heard a horse neigh what the horse dide. His father an swered, 'The horse dotlie neigh.' Hid ing further, he heard a cock crow aud said, liothe the eock neigh too?' And therefore cockney, or eockneigh, by in version thus: Ineoctus,—i. e., raw or unripe in countrey-mens affaires." When the Crowd Gathered. At the close ol' some sports that were being held at u country village one of the competitors, coming across the lo cal policeman, inquired when the thea ter opened. "We have no theater here," said the policeman. "Well, the music hall, then?" "No; nothing of that kind here." "Have you no evening amusement at all?" asked the stranger. "Oh, yes," said the policeman, rising to the occasion. "If you wait till 9 o'clock, you'll see them shunting the goods train."—London Spare Moments. Small Boy's Divorce.
