Superintendent ( HORSE FELL INTO CELLAR A horse belonging to Thomas .Tones Ferry street, Monady afternoon fell into an opening leading into the cel lar of the Opera House building, aud the resulting incidents for a while furnished excitement for the neighbor hood. The horse had just been unhitched and was left to stand in the alley iu the rear of the opera house while tiie wagon was taken into the stable. Tiie animal was near the opening into the cellar. Several steps backward and she went rear foremost down the steps, bringing up with a thud against the bolted doors. There the horse lay help less, and those who were attracted to the scene could do nothing for a while to eitiier get tiie animal back into the alley or open the bolts of the door. It was finally decided to force tiie door, which was accomplished with a battering ram. When tiie door gave way the horse turned a complete som erset, landing on its back iu tiie cel lar in a pile of scrap iron. The horse was induced to lie still while tiie debris was removed, when she arose without much trouble. A lead way was made aud she was tak en from the cellar without aecident. Strange to say tiie animal sustained no more serious injury than a couple of insignificant scratches. A WOfIAN'S BACK.

Appreciating the great help that local Good Roads associations cau ren der the cause of good roads, the Ill inois highway commission in their last report devote considerable space to their importance and the work of several Illinois associations. Oue in particular, the Galva Good Roads Im provement association, is singled out for special mention because of its splendid work encouraging the general use of tiie split-log drag on the dirt roads leading into Galva. President Miller, of this association, speaking of their work of grading draining and dragging, recently states : "We have specimens of road where the grade was completed in this manner and drain tile laid where the water line was within one foot of the surface, and through which for many years people waded hub deep iu mud in the spring, and sometime* iu the fall wheu it rained; but these portions of the road are now as firm aud as good as auv we have."

THE TRUE HAPPINESS The sick think if they had health nothing else would matter. The hard working man thinks if he had leisure he would be content. But happiness is not tiie prerogative of auy class of people or station iu life. Bernard Shaw says in oue of his plays that "the man with the toothache thinks every man happy whose teeth are sound, and the poverty-stricken man makes the same mistake about tiie rich man." So it is witli most things. Oue al ways feels that tiie thing he doesn't possess or tiie thing he can't do is the one thing essential to his happiness. But the things which really goto make for happiness are numerous and varied, for no two people think or feel alike. If there is oue thing more than all others that helps to smooth the rough places it is temperament. The j man or woman who is inclined to look | ou the bright side, who is confident that-clouds have a silver lining, and ] who realizes that life is only a game j to be played to the best of one's abil- j ity. is bound to be happier than one j who is always expecting the worst, or : who, because the sky is clouded, is sure that the sun will never shine ! again. The important question is: Can the j cheerful attitude be acquirred or is it oue of the gifts of the gods and be stowed on only a favored few? No doubt some arc gifted with a happier and more cheerful temperament than others. It seems to be natural for some to be morose,while others are natural ly sunny. But this is no reason why the melancholy one can't change his point of view There art* always two ways of looking at every question.and one's point of view as to cheerfulness is largely a matter of habit It is easv to see the best as it is to see the worst in people. And acording to what we habitually see in others, each of us pecples his own world. Joys, woes, successes, failures aie real only as they appear to us to be so. So for each of us the world is what we choose to make it. DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve is especi ally good for piles. Recommended and sold by Paules & Co. Elks in Flourishing Condition.

The diary of Munasse Cutler, the founder of Ohio und the author of the ordinance of JTS'i, gives an account ol a visit he made to Mount Vernon i two years after General Washington's [ death. We say "General" Washing j ton, for that was what Mrs. Washing j ton was pleased to call him—a copy foi j all those good women whose husbands | have won them honor on the field oi | war. | Sir. Cutler says it was the desire ot j their party to arrive at Mount Vernon ! in time for breakfast (7 o'clock) with | Mrs. Washington, but the bad roads j and worse horses detained them, so they did not reach there until about ! 10, which Mrs. Washington regretted, but she said, "Breakfast would be ready in a few minutes." The diary j goes onto say: j "In a short time she arose and desired I us to walk into another room, where a table was elegantly spread with ham, ■ cold corned beef, cold fowl, red her- I ring and cold mutton, the dishes orna j inented with sprigs of parsley and other vegetables from the garden. At I the head of the table was the tea and i coffee equipage, where she seated her self and sent the tea and coffee to the I company." j The point of interest is that break i fast menu—five kinds of meat decked i with sprigs of parsley and accompa nied with divers vegetables. Isn't 1 there an appetizing array and doesn't i the heart long for just such a scene? : Of course the mere feeders, the fel | lows that hanker for hot things, may | not think so, but the very mention of j cold ham, cold chicken, cold mutton : and cold corned beef nil in the same ' breath is an appeal to a conscientious appetite that i* unresisting.
