Be considerate of the overworked
clerks.
It is reported that a thunder storm
in Kansas shocked a whole field of
c >rn.
What a different world this would
he if we were all as smart as we think
We are.
It is sometimes possible to get some
thing for nothing, hut you can't get
experience that way.
The Edison auto that will run for
fifteen years, aught to put the repair
shops out of business.
With meat, pickles and confection
ery under suspicion, the public may
yet have to subsist on breakfast food.
A dry goods house advertises "shirt
waists one-third oft," That is prob
ably the latest designation of the kind
in fashion last summer.
It is not remedies to cure disease
or to heal wounds that are needed
half as much as common sense, fore
sight and care to avoid them.
Senator Tillman says it takes more
brains, more sound judgment, more
descrimination and more ability to be
a farmer than almost any calling.
It is now proposed to build a mil
lion-dollar park to surround Pennsyl
vania's new eapitol. We presume it
will take five or six million to do it.
Figures are being reported daily as
to what the recent campaign cost the
candidates. Why doesn't some sta
tistician figure out what it cost the
people ?
The wealth of the U. S., is now
estimated at 5100,000,000,000, but
Mr. Rockefeller is not as old as he
looks without his wig, and he may
get it nil yet.
In Missouri the brewers are being
forced to put real hops in the beer.
In Danville the hens, without any
forcing, are putting real hops in the
price of eggs.
Colorado women fought, fussed and
fumed until they got woman's suffrage
and then just as soon as they got it,
decided they didn't want it. Isn't
that just like a woman ?
It is the local paper that helps to
boom your town. Kow help to boom
the paper. Don't throw cold water
on it—but come in and say a few kiud
words to the editor, and subscribe.
That New York woman who says
that a quarter million a year isn't
more than enough to spend on dress
must be thinking of applying for the
job of head scrub-lady iu the new
Pennsylvania capitol.
A corn crop of 2,881,000,000
bushels for 1900 is the latest govern
ment estimate. It is the largest ever
raised and worth over 81,152,000,-
000. This year the United States has
been one of unequaled prosperity in
productions of soil.
It is astonishing how many people
are barely existing in the densely
populated East, while Kansas and
other great agricultural states of the
West and others of the South are
praying for skilled and unskilled
labor at "good wages." A man who
says his idleness is enforced these
days, is fibbing. It would be well
also for every Southern and Western
state to have an immigration bureau
for the direction of home-seekers.
What Makes Us Prosperous,
From the New York World.
The farm not only remains the
foundation of the country's prosperity;
its obscure magnates are the unknown
captains of the country's greatest in
dustry. They stay in the lead and
are making extraordinary gains. The
sum total of the output of all classes
of manufacturing establishments com
piled by the census authorities in
1900 was less than double the value
this year of the products of the farm
er alone. In 1906 the farmer shows
an increase of nearly 8500,000,000,
or 8 per cent, over 1905, and of more
than $2,000,000,000, or 31 percent,
over 1900. Prices have uot been ex
ceptionally high, while crops have been
enormous, llere is a boom resting
on a solid basis to make Wall street
turn greeu with envy. ,
- I n this one year the farmer has
produced enough out of the soil to pay
for all the railroads in the United
States if they were drained of their
water. His products for two months
would buy a 81,000,000,000 Steel
Trust dollar for dollar, actual value,
and leave a handsome margin. Sec
retary Wilson puts the corn crop at
81,100,000,000, which would more
than sufHee to rebuild the entire Har
rinian and Hill railroad systems and
allow liberally for construction scand
als and stock manipulations. Out of
a 8640,000,000 cotton crop a Stan
dard Oil Trust could be purchased
and enough left over to start a few
national banks and speculate iu cop
per. "If the hens of this year," says
Secretary Wilson, "had each laid a
dozen eggs more than they did, the
increased value of the production
would have possibly aggregated $50,-
000,000.
Hicks on December.
Hicks, the weather prophet, says
tliat as the year goes out there will be
storms of sleet anil snow,extreme cold
weather, seismic shakes,auroral lights
ami electrical disturbances. His pre
dictions for the month of December
are that it will be a stormy, blustery
winter month, with a regular storm
period ceutral ou Christmas day.
How swiftly run the years I
HERE it is almost Christmas again.
AFTER all, it might be cheaper for the corporations to pay fines
than to hire lawyers.
THE world may be growing better, but there is something radically
wrong with many of the niiuce pies.
THE campaign cigar will now disguise itself with a sprig of holly
and lie in wait for the unwary on Dec. 25.
A 82"),000,000 railroad has been started in Bolivia and the bridges
and rebates are to be designed in this country.
ONE evidence of the power of American oratory is found in the re
cently discovered fact that we are supplying the world's demand (or wind
mills.
THE Indiana man who cut off his right hand because it offended
him, it is needless to say, was a Bible reader who accepted all statements
literally.
AGAIN the Intelligencer advises its readers to buy their holiday
presents early and thereby avoid the rush and the chances of receiving the
wrong change.
ON each day in the year there is an average of twenty-one aliens
debarred from enterting the port of New York. If Congress carries out its
threat this number may soon be greatly increased.
THE Department of Agriculture has crossed a Florida and Japan
ese orange and produced a lemon. Which suggests to the Intelligencer that
by crossing lemons it may be able to produce an orange that is sweet.
A YorNO lady who has been teaching school at Hammond, Ind.,
has been dismissed from her position because she is so pretty that "everybody
falls in love with her." It is a safe conclusion, however, that a teacher
with that kind of a qualification will not long be out of a job.
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT has promised to send another message to
Congress on December 17, telling all about his trip to Panama. It is to be
presumed, of course, that he will tell whether or not he bought a Panama
lint while he was down there, aud if Panama hats are to be in style next
summer.
AN editor in Indian Territory was running the motto in his paper:
"We tell the truth." Last week he received a "call" from a large man
who objected to the truth being told, anil in consequence the motto disap
peared and the following was inserted: "Until we recover from the injuries
recently received, this paper will lie just like the rest of them."
THEY say Boni is coming over here to do some sort of a stage stunt
for us, and incidentally bag some more American dollars. Hope he'll come.
0 ! how we all of us hope he'll come. In the language of the boy in the
street, "we won't do a thing to him." There won't be enough ancient hen
fruit and decayed soup bunches in the country to supply the demand. The
women of the country ought to begin right now to practice throwing at a
mark.
QUEER things crop out in divorce courts. Only a few days ago a
feature in a husband's petition was the charge that the wife searched his
pockets while he slept. The judge ruled that that was a wife's indisputable
privilege, and even praised women who did it regularly. Now comes a hus
band, Jacob Beecher, defendant, aud admitting that he struck his wife,
pleaded his right to do so, as she was "too close in supplying him money
when he wanted togo fishing !" The judge was so impressed with "fisher
man's rights'' as an argument that he took the case under advisement.
ICE.
Every day new ideas and better conditions are being offered, and as
this is an age of great opportunities and resources, the best is invariably eag
erly grasped and applied to the good of our comfort aud the multiplication ot
our world's goods.
But a few years back it was almost impossible to find any person, even
01 more than moderate means, having iu their home-use a refrigerator. Now
almost ever f.imily has one, and the result is that the ('emind for ic! is so
great that fabulous prices are give I and the demand not nearly satisfied.
The season for harvesting ice is about at hand, and what would be more
profitable to a number of local speculators than to erect a large store house
in some convenient section of the town or suburbs, and fill it with ice for
wholesale and retail trade ?
The river at this place always gives a good crop of ice, and there would
b.> little or no risk to run, but noiv is the time to act. Have the building
erected and in readiness so that when the harvest is ripe there is no waste
time, and a full and goodly crop is stored away.
DELIGHTS OF SHOPPING.
Among the minor pleasures of civilized life we should he inclined
to let the pleasures of shopping rank high. All children enjoy it; so do most
women and many men. As the pleasure is pursued at the present day it can
not well be called primitive. Yet certain primitive instincts are satisfied by
shopping, such, for instance, as the acquisitive instinct, the love of the chase,
the love of barter, the sense of beauty, and the feminine thirst for personal
adornment. The element of chance, too, enlivens the game, and remote pos
sibilites of prizes dazzle the eyes of its devotees.
After all, however, the pleasure of buying is by no means the only
pleasure which the public derives from shops. There is the pleasure of look
ing at what they can not buy. There is no greater libel upon human nature
than the widespread beliet that it is painful to the poor to look upon desir
able objects which they may not have. It is one of the arguments based
upon the sandy foundation of analogy. To a hungry man the sight ol' food
placed out of his reach may well become tortuie, aud the sight of a fire must
be horribly tantalizing to those who can not feel its warmth. But this does
not apply, except iu a few instances, to the things which can be bought in
shops for money. It is no torture to an artist to visit a museum or a picture
gallery, greatly as he would like to possess the exhibits he looks at. It is
no torture to a child to play iu a park where it is forbidden to touch the
flowers, greatly as it would like to handle them. The shop frouts are to the
town what flowers arc to a public garden, and are regarded by the majority
of those who pass by with interest and admiration aud no envy at all.
COMPETITION AND FOOD REFORM-
The results of the pure food legislation by Congress, last spring,
are already visible on the shelves of dealers, which bear canned goods whose
labels assure the purchaser that the contents of the package are unadulter
ated, and free from preservatives. Consumers will depend upon the officers
of the law to see that the declarations so made are absolutely true, and the
confidence thus engendered will cause an increase in the demand for canned
goods of all kinds. Instead of doing injury, the law will do good, and those
who struggled against its enactment will see that they were sadly mistaken
iu their opinions as to the probable effect of the statute.
An agent of the Minnesota dairy and f>od department reeent'y
made a tour of inspection through the twenty-six canneries of that State aud
reported to his chief, who has announced that such tours are to be made an
nually during the packing season to insure strict obedience to law on the part
of the packers. The dairy and food department has coincldentally notified
the packers that "all canned vegetables and fruits must be absolutely free
from preservatives and bleaching agents, except that salt, sugar and pure
spices. may be used," and the packers in turn have assured the dairy and
food commissioner that they will gladly comply with the provisions of the
law.
This action in Minnesota will tend to advertise the canned goods of that
State as pure, unadulterated products, and as such advertising is valuable in
trade, other states in which fruit and vegetable canning enterprises are es
tablished will have to do likewise in self-protection. In this way the reform
will be made general by the force of competition.
Returned From Shepherdstovtn, Md. j
Rev. Jos. E. Guy, pastor of Shiloh !
Reformed congregation, this city, re
turned front Shepherdstown, Md.,
where lie was called to officiate at the
obsequies of an old friend and former
parishioner. Mr. Guy came from
Shepherdstown to Danville just a year
ago, anil during the intervened period
was called to that place three times
on similar occasions. This is a very
perceptible indication of the apprecia
tion and kindliness entertained by the
goodly people he left behind, when
he accepted the call to this city. Mr.
Guy is a popular and rising dispenser j
of the gospel truth, and has won ;
Christian friends in all the various ;
denominations of our town.

No Printers in Penitentiary.
I The Ohio Penitentiary News, for
many years an interesting and flour
ishing daily newspaper published by
convicts has been compelled to sus
pend publication because there is not
a printer in the Ohio penal institution.
Of bankers there are plenty and'also
lawyers, doctors and representatives
of about every other calling The
fact shows that the printer of today is
as a rule a good, home-owning citizen
and of fixed employment, and it is
with no small degree of pride that
this truth is recorded.

"It Isn't even as If 7011 needed to d<
this, Allda." Bob Kendal held hla
voice to a eool, argumentative tone
that made the girl before him still
more Indignant.
"Who are you that you should decide
whether I need to do anything at all?"
the biased Indignantly.
"I am your fiance, and"— he was be
ginning when she Interrupted him.
"If that Is your exeuse for such un
just Interference with my wishes, I
tan at least relieve you of your duty."
And she plaeed her engagement ring
tn the table between them. The young
man glanced at It without seeming to
fee It. Then he looked sharply at the
angry girl who was drawn to her full
freight.
"Alicia," he saM gently, "yoo are too
angry to realize what you art doing,
rut the ring on your finger again.
Tou don't mean thla."
"Pardon ma, I do mean It,** tald the
girl Idly.
The young man 4 * face whitened, and
a hurt look sprang Into his steady
brown eyes, Then he straightened up
and squared his shoulders and set hit
strong chin firmty. When he spofce
there was & note of hardness in hit
rolce which the girl had never heard
from him before and from Which ahe
ftirank mentally.
"Allela, do yon reallte what you are
doing? We were to be married In May.
Your trousseau Is begun, I know. An<J
you've given me every reason to be
lieve you cared for me as much as I do
for you. And now, because I ask you
to do this one thing—for your sake as
well as mine—you are going to give all
this up!"
The girl turned suddenly and went
to tho window, where she stood look
ing out Into the dripping garden. Bho
felt her lips quivering, and she must
not let Bob see.
Bob looked at the crown of dark red
hair against the deep green of the
window draperies, and his voice tof
tenod.
"This Is all Fro erer asked of yoti,
Alicia. I've been too confident of your
love for me after you confessed It;
I've believed In you too utterly ever to
be Jealous of your flirtations, as many
another man would have been—and
rightly too. I've submitted cheerfuUy
to being 'trailed' In public hecauste jt
was you who did the 'trailing/ "
Alicia turned and faced him again,
her foot tapping the floor Impatiently.
"Is the list of your virtues a long
one, sir?" she asked.
"I shall not name them all," he an
swered calmly. "The only thing I'vo
ever Insisted upon your doing Is this
one we're talking about. Give up this
silly concert tour. I've never said a
Word when you've sung for sweet char
ity's sake or for any society affair,
even when the publicity of the events
has often made me writhe. This time
you haven't any real reason. You arq
not In need of money, and you're not
doing It for charity. It Isn't even the
necessary ambition of the professional
to win a higher place for herself. You
will got flattery from the critics who
do not think It worth tho effort to
Spend real criticism on society ama
teurs. If they should criticise- you
honestly—tho way they do profession
als, to whom It means bread and but
ter—you'd see the point I'm trying to
ftiake. I appreciate the charm of ycru
and yojir voice as no one else who
looks and listens to you possibly can,
and, Alicia Falrall, I don't want to see
you 'damned with faint praise' or hu
miliated by any conscientious critic.
Can't you see that"—
"When you are quite through," Inter
rupted Alicia, "you can doubtless find
your way out. I must ask you to ex
euse me." And she swept from the
room, pausing once In the curtained
doorway as If to speak.
Unconsciously she assumed a theat
rical attitude. Her face was turned back
over her shoulder, and her lips were
parted a little. With her glowing head
and her soft green dress between tho
ed like a tall, beautiful dahlia, and Bob
involuntarily started forward. But sho
closed her lips to a thin red line and
went on dropping the curtains behind
her. Presently he heard the tapping of
her slippers upon the stairs and then
tho bang of a door. 1 '
lie did not leave the house at once,
Cut stood at the window where Alicia
had stood and looked out Into the gray
twilight. It was early spring. As he
looked wearily at the sparrows on the
soaked lawn Bob felt his throat tighten
and brushed his hand across his eyes.
"She couldn't mean It,"he muttered
(is he turned nnd picked up the emer
ald ring nnd slipped It Into his vest
pocket. "It Is too close to May for her
to mean that." Then he sought for pa
per and pen and sat down at the table.
He wrote:
Dear, if I hare been too harsh torflv
me. I have said too strongly, perhaps,
what I believe to be true, and all I want
la to spare both of ui the pain any failure
of yours would be sure to cause. Think
It over well, dear, before you decide.
What I came to tell you today Is that
our house Is all done. The last workman
lias left. I am Inclosing a key—there are
only two—and I beg you will go there
and think It nil over at least once before
jou decide Anally,
He Inclosed the key and on his wr.y
out handed the envelope to the butler
to "be taken up to Miss Alicia."
As for Alicia, she lnd gone straight
to her desk and had written the follow
ing note:
My Dear Mr. Courtenay—l have decid
ed, as I promised I would by today, about
the concert tour. Tou may depend upon
me for your soprano. And an I have been
the only one to object to the longer trip
you planned I withdraw my abjections to
that also. Under your management I
feel sure we shall be successful. Sin
cerely. ALICIA LEE FAIRALL.
When she had heard the closing of
the outer door she gave the note to the
butler and took from him the envelop#
Bob had left. With It In her hand she
went slowly upstairs and sat down be
fore hor grate flro. She felt her anger
melting away, and by the ache In her
throat knew that tears were not far

ing to And some stimulus to her Indig
nation, but at the gentleness of the
wonls and the sight of the key to th*<

rush, and, burying hor face In the artp
of her easy chair, she cried herself to
sleep.

dropped. Then, with his heart pound

against the settee and feigned sleep.
He heard the steps come to the dlnr

TRAINING DOG POLICE.
I Irpcklnu In of the Seine Patrol One
of the Sights of Pari*.
J The training of the young New
! foundlands that are periodically added
I to the staff Is one of the sights of
Tarlu. It takes place In the hcadquar
| ters of the agents plongeurs, a small
1 building on the quayside not far from
the Cathedral of Notre Dame. Dogs
| and men enter Into the exercise with
rest, and there Is usually a crowd of
onlookers. Only dummy figures are
used, but the "rescue" Is nevertheless
a very realistic affair. Tho big dogs
know perfectly well what the exercise
means, and they wait with comic eu
fhusla<m until the dummy is thrown
into tlio water and an plongeur
rushes out on hearing the splash and
.the outcry of spectators. While the
men are busy with lines and life buoys
tho dog plunges Into the water, swims
to tho dummy, watches with rare In
telligence for an opportunity to get an
advantageous hold, and then It either
swims ashore or waits for Its master,
who brings to the rescue long poles,
cork belts and the like. Tho more ex
perienced dogs, however, will easily
effect a rescue from first to last with
out human assistance, and It Is an In
spiring sight to watch them looking
for a foothold on the slippery sides of
tho river bank and pulling the heavy
dummy Into a plice of safety.
It takes about four months to train
tho dogs efficiently. They are also
charged with the promotion of their
masters when attacked by the des
perate ruffians who sleep under the
nrches of the bridge In summer. Thus
In Paris the police dogs are a proved
success.—Century.
A GREAT REER HOUSE.
Kanleh Own* tlie Oldest tind I.argent
Saloon In the World,
The Ilofbrauhaus of Munich Is per
haps the oldest and largest saloon In
fhe world, owned by the king of Ba
varia and patronized by an average of
12,000 customers a day. On holidays
the nurtiber often runs up to 15,000 and
10,000. Nothing to drink Is sold but
beer, brewed at the royal brewery,
which was started by King I.udwlg the
Severe In 1235. The present Ilofbrau
haus was built In 1011, and the beer
was brewed on the spot until 1878,
when the brewery was moved Into the
country to less expensive quarters.
There are seats for 1,500 customers,
plain wooden benches without backs
beside plain wooden tables without
covers. In the garden or court are 100 j
empty beer barrels set on end, which I
are used for tables. The steins, which
are very heavy and hold a quart of
beor, are piled up In stacks before the
bar on tho floor In tho morning, where,
they remain until they are used.
Wheft a Customer wants beer he
picks out a stein, takes It to one of the
basins of running lyater which line the
walls pud washes It himself. Then he
carries It to the counter and hands It
over to the bartendor, who fills It with
boon from the *>arrel. The price Is 0
'•cents a stein, and the profits support
tho. hospitals of tho city, although the
king could claim them If he desired to
do so, as the brewery and the Ilofbrau
haus belong to him by Inheritance.—
