I All boys, and frirl* too. should be tiught the necessity of labor. They | : -honld early acquire habit* of industry. ! otherwise the slightest task will appear i burdensome. To a boy reared on a farm, accustomed to long hours of ardn ! ous toil, the labor attached to a college 1 course is easy. It is rest. To the boy I brought up in idleness and luxury it is ! wearisome and exhaustive labor. He has never known what real work is. and j is consequently easily fatigued. The manhood of many is ruined by ; idleness in youth. Boys should taste of hardships, because greatness and useful ness consist of energy. In cold coun tries the bee is the most industrious and > frugal insect. He spends his summer hours in gathering honey for winter use. He is too busy to look up. and re j gards the butterfly and the katydid with contempt. But transport the bee j to a tropical climate, where the flowers bloom perj>etually and the warm breezes constantly blow, and that industrious insect becomes an idler and a profigate. j He quits work entirely, lives from hand i to mouth, and acquires the vicious hab- j it of stinging people for the mere sake of killing tftiie. Luxury and ease have the same effect upon a boy. Learn to work and be happy. Punxy Spirit. Grapes for Coughs and for -Sing ers. Auntie Rachael. a Holland nurse, has discovered a novel and effective way of using grapes in combination with Ele campane. Root and Hoiehound for the purpose of curing coughs, colds and -ore throat It is called Aunt Rachael s Eel cam pane and Horehound Cordial and it is said that physicians are recom mending it freely in the East Singers and lecturers carry a bottle with them All moralists have assured us that ' when lovely woman stoops to folly, she stoops very low indeed. And so when women attempt to emulate the glories of a Choctaw chief or a South Sea inlander, it is not considerations of art or humanity or self-respect that will stop them, says Natural Science. Con sequently, it is not likely that the insen ate votaries of fashion, who disfignre their heads with baskets of artificial flowers 'irrespective of the seasoni.viru lently dyed scraps of ribbon, twists of steel, and unaturally clipped or colored bird feathers, will pay any attention to a paragraph iu a scientific journal. But we are willing to leave theirrespon sible half of creation all their chiffons, their coal tar dyes and their scrap iron, if only they will leave us our birds. The rate at which some of the rarest and most beautiful birds on our planet are being destroyed to gratify this ex traordinarv taste can hardly be realiz el. It is small consolation to us to think think that in a few years the price of these luxuries will be prohibitive, or that, unless fashion changes in the di rection of sea weeds or turnip tops, there will soon be no more birds to de stroy. Nor can we overlook the ter rible sufiering involved by this enor mus slaughter: the young osprey bereft of their parents left to die in hundreds, the heron with the plumes torn from its ba'-k, writhing into death. If you are overworked and feel sick ness coming on I>r. Hull's Pills will surely give you relief and restore yon to health. A striking result of asking for bids for public service was shown in I'unx sntawney. That town has two electric light plants, and one of them, under a five year contract, has lx.-en furnishing street lights for sixty five dollars per year per light. The contract will soon expire, and the Council asked for bids fur the next five years, requiring each company to accompany their bids with a bond of twenty five thousand dollars. The result has )»<n that the lowest bid was forty five dollars per light, and a contract foi five years was made at that figure, a »aving of one thonsand dollars per year to the borough.
