4 1 ! Some Rambling Thoughts. II "IMO." (Copi righted by Dw A Tuber.', Eagernerw to look at tlie outer ap pearance of a great man is no real ronmliiiient to his' work. Willing ness to take of his nieage and live it is more to lie praised. Hy way of illustrations, let me cite Christi anity. As the centuries increase in number U'hiiul us, the vital strength ot Christianity seems (I do not write of creeds but" of deeds) to increase. And I doubt not that the world's workers, who have learned from The : Great Worker, care less and less for! guide and tin encouragement; that His personal appearance; since were j they may see what it is to have we to behold Him as He was, like j borne the conflict and resisted the enough we should see but littlecause , storm, to stand ut the hist strongly, to admire Him. A man's work is ! quietly, brightly iu the midst ot a more than the man, and his message light that seems to grow morelieau more to be heeded than his lace, tittil as you sink away into the And we gaping ones who would run hither and thither just to "nee," advertise that we as yet understand hut little of what influence really means. Like those who gazed upon raged lions, are we who gather to stare ut iiuiious thinkers we have our rewards; we are disappointed in loth lions and men, for they are out j of their prop'!- setting. And those who, having aided the thought of the day, straightway im itate the Irt-.iks of the museum, .showing themselves at every public place, have their reward also They are wen, their work is judged by their facial or physieial insignificance (for great thoughts are no necessary product of magnificent brows or her-1 cuieau Doilies), and mey are on me way to the land of forgotten things, lletter to live uiiknoweti and leave a message lor all time hereafter, than to kill time and influence by idle jKiradings of self. The "silent influence" what u world of satisfaction there in the idea ! It brings us all in as in the onward work of the world. I The "silent influence," softas asnow j Hake, gentle as a Hummer zephyr, despised as an earth worm, unheeded as a blade ot irrass, is what is (loinsr 1 the work ot the world. Mightier than niouarchs is the quiet thought of the people, passing from hamlet to hamlet unci growing as it passes; more enduring than mountains are the personal and national virtues that are quietly ani silently taught and lived bv iinknowon men and women; more presistent than death are the silent works done generation after generation by the humble and unseen done liecausc they were right to he done, and not because they were to Ik1 either seen or praised of. men. 1 1 limbic ones everywhere, the "silent iiiHueiice" and a know-i ledge of its grandeur iu all history, all progress, all morals makes the humblest of us humble ones proud to live and eager for more of the pa tient plodding to which we have hitherto Ixrn eon ti mil. We are a part of the great human body, as 111 tic 1 the invisible oxygen in us is Hirt of us, and like it we are exer cising a definite influence for good iu our race, 110 matter how small or insignificant may lie our effort to wards wisdom and righteousness of life. Purpose in life is like the kiiii hhine that comes over the hills to make the way clear after a night of doubt and wandering. I am not surprised that many people find ex istence altogether too confusing und give up in despair. Jt is because they get into the maze of lite und lose hold it Kin the one tread that will guide them out into freedom, Like the early alchemists whoalways hud one thing lucking when they tried - to transmute metal, many of us are seeking the philospher's stone that shall turn to fine gold the days and I lours that are allotted to us. Failure follows fuilure, failure lives with us, failure nauseates us because the one thing lacking is purpose. Goodwin cere, honest purpose is more to be desired than great riches, and strong er to sweep ditliiculty out of the way is it than music. But the possession of clear purpose does not necessarily mean that all difficulties will disappear. Such are geod for us and test our purposes a? to wheth er it has the genuine ring of pure metal about it I assume that the preceding para graph will k regarded as applying most definitely to young men out in the world's work. But I do not want it so applied. That's too nar row a way of regarding it. . It ap plies to us all, a I shall show. Weary widow, with a heart crush ed a by strange and terrible affliction left perliaps with small children to sustain, none ot them able m neip with the family purse, except to help empty it look back at the first few hours ot your bereavement, and recall how the almost fierce re solve to bring them up well in spite of every '""obstacle, brought some measure of quiet orderliness to your brain and ' hos: made the struggle seem worth while ever since. Aeed pilgrim, whose beetling brow is covered with the snows ot life's winter, lift up your head into the sunshine, let its glories linger around your teuipestworn face, that the vomit; may look up to you as a uiirht. l'urnoM! is still yours to 1 1 enjoy; the purpose to guide and en courage others. That will make the last days as beautiful for good, us erniaiiently useful as any that have won Ix-fore, sime you know not w hat undrcamed-of hero, what bud ding genius you may lie stimulating; or what "silent influence" you may be inaugurating Maidens with knowledge of life yet to lie learned; liereuved and smitten ones in a world where there are ver deeper sorrows than yours ; men who seek to make money for itself alone and who lose happiness in the making; young men oer whose bright wav there is but the one cloud that arist from abusing life instead ot using it; all, all who are weary and heavy laden, all who are puzzled, bewildered, lost; cling last to one purpose to do all you can ior us miii'ii u ou cuii un mu j ! as you can, and the living out ot the golden rule will make crooUc l'llt1' strait an.l slu.w eve., tl.e nms trilling dut. to U-'Svorth while, UNION TVVP. 1 )a id Wcntzel of Nebraska is at present visiting his aged parents here. . . .ltcv.

"Yes. aald the distinguished gentle woman who Is keenly studious of the life around her, deeplte her crown ot liver hair, "I see a great advance In this generation so far as concerns edu cation and tta results. But as to man ners, I confess I perceive a filling off. I do not always find, even In the high est circles, the true courtesy and fine grace that belonged to the best people of the past generations. The young people of to-day are conscious of their Intellectual advantages and their supe rior capabilities. The sense of this makes them a little bit too self-satls-Bed and Independent less anxious to propitiate and please. This result either In an off-hand familiarity er a critical reserve and indifference. 'The repose of manner" which is supposed to characterize "thorough breds" Is a pleasure to contemplate In clndly. intelligent, anaffected members af society, but it approaches Idiocy when it means an icy absorption in self and an utter absence of Interest n the rest of the human race. Have us from the repose of manner that re luires human beings to sit in Immobile nonentity, like the wax figures In a riinp window, with the gauze of "hlj;h breed I m; und reserve" to guurd them from the dust and flies of mediocrity! There Is a repose of manner which comes from the consciousness of be ing In the right place and doing the right thing by necessity; there is an sther, which is the outcome of gen tleness of nature, sweetness of temper ind habitual self-control. Now and then we meet one to whom these per fect manners are so natural nnd spon taneous as fragrance to a flower; then we realize after awhile, if not at first, thnt this charm of manner is more cap tivating than beauty or Intellect When united with lovllness of person, fine tense nnd cultured mentality, the com bination Is irresistible, and constitutes the flower of humankind.

It should follow the bath because after the bnth the skin Is most supple and flexible nd Is more apt to receive outer Im pressions. There are different kinds of massage, riio Swedish consists In exercising all the limbs of a perfectly passive pa tient. Russian massage Is given with in oiled or soaped glove, followed by tn application of the birth rod. The Turkish method Is to take the lands and then make the fingers crack, is If they were dislocated. Every joint f the body Is operated upon in this ray, nnd the spine Is beaten. In all ases the rubbing Is vigorous. Persons who cannot afford to have a tiasseus or massage can create a fric tion with long strips of leather or 'lorsehlde, with the handle at either end, linen gloves, gloves of Turkish toweling nnd other slmlllnr material. For face massage use the purest and aest of cold cream. Rub gently for a n'hlle, then rub off the crenm and put aiore on. After this wnsh the face with rose water. Otl Is good for bard skins, and flabby iklns need to be rubbed with alcohol perfumed with verbena. The face should never be massaged tamedlntely be'fore going out.

There will be ob served upon scanning the expendi tures, some very lat pickings. The district attorney's fees amount to nearly us much as the judge's salary. Prothonotary Kremer got from the treasury over $4,000. Each com missioner got over one thousand, while their chief clerk got $1,200. The pay received by the jury com missioners was for two years. They received nav for 1896 after the re port for that year had been prepared for publication. The total paid for bridge work foots up the big sum of nearly $16,000.
