A
Judge McClurc Elected.
Tin: returns from Tuesday's eleetiou shows
that Judge McCllire lias been re-elected by a
good substantial majority.
This tribute to his service on tin; bench is a
fitting testimonial to the regard in which he is
held Ly the people. lie was nominated by a
large majority of republicans and it is but fiitt
iogand proper that ml fair-minded men should be
consistent and substantiate their deeds by acts of
harmony. Judge MeClure has stood as the
target for many ill-aimed missiles, butthepeople
were the judges and jury and the verdict has
been most decisive.
With almost one thousand majority in Sny
der County and about the same iu Union, shows
a complete landslide, bestowing harmony and
good will of two-thirds of (lie people of the
Judicial district.
There should be no sore spots to heal, but
like good loyal Americans, all should lay down
LITERARY NOTES.
I .AD IKS BOlfl JOIKNAI..
Every one who has read the inimitable
"Peterkin Papers" renieml)ers the "Lady from
1 hi auc Ionia." one it was to whom the i eter-
kins turned when they didn't know what to do
nor how to do it. Comparatively few persons,
however, knew that the " Lady " really lived,
that her name was Gillespie, and that her great
grandfather was Benjamin Franklin. These
facts, which with many others equally interesting
were brought out on the occasion of her death in
Philadelphia the morning of October 13, lend
additional interest to u new department just
begun in The Ladies' Home Journal, called
"The Lady from Philadelphia." The identity
of the person who conducts this department is
with-held. All that is vouchsafed is that the
new "Lady" 18 an authority on all questions
pertaining to etiquette, manners and good form,
and each month iu The Journal she will answer
such questions regarding these points as may be
sent in by young women.
woman's HOME COMPANION.
The Woman's Home Companion for Novem
ber opens with a Thanksgiving story by Maty
E. Wilkins. Another New England s'ory is
"The Diplomacy of Grandma Gage," hy Sophie
Swett. Heybert D. Ward contributes "The
Man Who Failed." An especially timely
article is "Foot ball Heroes," by Mrs. Walter
Camp. The beginning of a series dealing with
''Curious Marriage Customs" deals with mar
riage in Russia. Articles of vital interest to
house-keepers arc "November Settlings and
Cheer," by Mrs. Earned, "The New Art,"
j" Danish Needlework," Gold Bullion Embroid
ery," "Women at the Exposition," and severul
pages of fashions. There are three reproductions
of notable paintings. Published by The Crowell

the Mexican foot-hills by Thomas A. Janvier,

SUCCESS.
Many good qualities go to the insuring of a
genuine success: a strong, hopeful heart, indus
try, patience, perseverance, a largeness of aim
and view, tenacity of purjiosc, power to control
the tongue", swift precision, mental right, a clear
view into the future, reticence concerning plans,
the submission of the liody to the will, and, as a
prime factor, that peculiar viture which, for want
of a specific name, may lie called "ballast."
Ballast is really many virtues, in nice proportion.
It is to know ourselves, our position, and the
power we posses for any task to be done. It is
the making for a desired point, with the steadi
ness of a locomotive, and as directly as a crow
flies. If we accuse a person of waiting "ballast"
we think of him blown about by every wind of
circumstances, and of waving among a variety
of ends. This is the great commercial sin. .No
one in the business world is held more cheaply
than the man without ballast. He is like a ship,
leaving port with colors Hying, and not :. pound
of lwllast in her hold. Amelia E. Barr, "Suc
cess" for November.

The threatened disappearance of many kinds
of game from the United States and the needed

officials, as well as to srortsnien and other
private citizens.

for a Dress, J will give you a better quality of goods for
the money than any other dealers. If any one oilers you
cloth for less money, it must be inferior to the quality I
sell.
Prescriptoins.
Must be right, and they must lie compounded of pure
drugs, and NOT ONLY PURE DRUGS, but pure drugs
of the best quality. Drugs of the cheapest quality might
be pure, but the quality is inferior.
