IT NFVFR PAYS TO DO VVRONQ. Trouble Seldom Leaves The Door-Step ol Wrone Doers. Under the caption "A Fearful Price," the AlloonaTribune com ments as follows: "In Franklin county not many weeks ago a public official was convicted of having taken produce from the poor fa.-m and appro priated it to his own use. De was sentenced to undergo lm prisonmentin the eastern pern tentiary for a period of not lesr- than one year or ; piore than six When it was proposed to him to make an effort to prevent the execution of the sentence he is reported to have made the follow ing reply: 'I nha. not appeal my case because 1 am down and out. I have lost my position, my repu tation, my monev, and my wife, she having started a suit for di vorce and she deserves it. I am going to the penitentiory.' "The man who made that sad speech once possessed the re ppect and confidence ol his fellow citizens. They made him one of their officials. In a moment of weakness he yielded to tempta Hon and fell. He did like many others refore-him, but he was not so lucky as some, for his wrong doiug was discovered Now he is about to undergo the punishment which fits the crime. Whether he will recover from the melancholy which has evidently taken complete i ossession of him and carve out a new way for him self after he has been restored to freedom we cannot tell. At pres ent it looks as though he has nothing left worth living for. . "Of the men accused of robbing the state in connection with the construction of the new capitol building at Harnsburg, three are dead and others are but wrecks of their former stives. Worry drive those who have gone hence nto their graves. Trouble sel Jom leaves the doorsteps of wrong doers. They may have been no worse than their prede cessors, but they were caught and the penalty was enforced. Not the legal penalty, indeed, bu the penalty resulting from an ac cusing conscience, from the loss of self respect, from an agonizing apprehension of what the future held in reserve for them. It nev er pays to do wrong. " Night On Bald Mountain. On a lonely night Alex. Benton of Fort Edward, N.

Then came the constable and said, "We took a collection among ourselves to buy twine and this little package which I now present to you." Upou examination the package was found to contain candy.

There is no more delightful trait in the young or the old than absolute frankness and open ness of nature, that transparency of character which lets us see the best and wott in them, their strong and their weak points, without any effort at conceal ment. Everybody admires the open hearted people who have nothing to conceal, and who do not try to cover up their faults and weak ness. They are, a3 a rule, large hearted and magnanimous. They inspire love and confidence, and by their very frankness and sim plicity, invite the same qualities in others. Secretivenesa repels as much as frankness attracts. There is something about the very incli nation to conceal or cover up which arouse suspicions and dis trust. We can not have the same confidence in people who possess this trait, no matter how good they may seem to be, as in frank sunny natures. Dealing with these sejretive people is like traveling on a stage coach on a dark night. There is always a feeling of uncertainty. We may come out all right but there is a lurking fear of some pitfall or unknown dauger ahead of us. We are uncomfortable because of the uncertainties. They may be all right, and may deal squirely with us, but the trouble is that we are not sure, and can not trust them. No matter Ijow polite a gracious, a secretive person may oe, we can never rid ourselves of i he feeling that there is a motive oeh'iLd his graciousness, ai d that he has an ulterior purpose in view. He is always more or less of an enigma, because be goes through life wearing a mask. He endeavors to hide every trait that is not favorable to himself. Nev er, if he can help it, do we get a glimpse of the real man, How different the man who comes out in the open, who his no secrets, who reveals his heart to us, and who is frank, abroad and libeial! How quickly be wins our coundopce! How we all love and trust him! "We for give bim for many a slip or weak oess, because he is always ready io confess his faults, and to make amends for them. If he has tad qualities, they are always in sight tnd we are ready to make allow incfis for them. H's heart is sound and true, bis sympathies ire broad and activ. The very qualities bo possesses frank ness and simplicity, are coo Jucive to the growth of the high est manhood and womanhood.
