Any man can get mad and make a fool of himself, but it takes a philosopher and a gentleman to get over it quickly. We will say to “Fritz’s” credit that when he quit the paper he did not quit in its debt, like some of the sore ones did. He is too honest a man to quit a paper that way. Nearly all the desirable subscribers this paper lost during the strike have since returned, and most of them have admitted that the course THE Star took during the strike was right, and that they would be many dollars abead if they had only taken its advice. We have helped many of the strikers to get work since the strike is over, but we regret to say that some of them do not seem to know it, and some seem to be as destitute of gratitude as ever.

Prof. Edward A. Ross, of the Univer- sity of Nebraska—he was the origina- tor of the phrase “race suicide”—was talking the other day about the bring- ing up of boys. “Boys,” he said, “especially from 16 years on, shouid be brought up care- fully—should be held strictly io ae- count. When they go wrong it is too often because they have not been prop- erly managed. “I remember a rich widow whose son at 19 bade fair to become a confirmed drunkard. At an age when he should have been in bed by 10 o'clock at the lateat he would be sitting nightly in cafes, smoking cigarets and drinking whisky. “On toward midnight he would reel off home. “Well, a minister called on the widow one day and told her that something ought to be done in her son’s case. “‘I’m sure I do all I can as it is,” she said, plaintively. ‘I am worried nearly sick. “‘I fear you are not firm enough with Jack, said the minister. “‘On the contrary, 'the mother re- plied. ‘I sometimes fear I am too harsh with him.’ * ‘Why, what have you done? “‘Well, I haven’t done anything, but I’ve said a great deal.’ “ ‘What, for instance?’ “‘Why, I have said, ‘John! John! John! and other severe things. ”— Philadelphia Bulletin. LUCKIEST MAN IN ARKANSAS. “I’m the luckiest man in Arkansas,” writes H. L.

And now a report comes from Grants- ville that very small fish fell during a recent rain at Accident. A great phe- nomenon, but not so immensely satis- factory as would be just one big drop in the price of Garrett county turkeys. —Frostburg Mining Journal, The drop in Garrett county turkeys would be very welcome to all who have to buy their turkeys, but there is noth- ing very strange about the small fish incident. “Small fish” and “small po- tatoes” abound in all communities, but most of them are of the human species. Whether they descended from the heavens. we know not ; but we de know that they will never ascend to the heavens, and if they ever were there, it is no wonder that they were dropped to this mundane sphere, this “ghoul- haunted woodland of Wier.” FRIGHTFULLY BURNED. Chas. W. Moore, a machinist, of Ford City, Pa. had his hand frightfully burned in an electrical furnace.

Miller's, Druggist. 3-1 Lincoln’s Advice to Lawyers. “Discourage litigation,” was his ad- vice tolawyers. “Persuade your neigh- bors to compromise whenever you can. Point out to them how the nominal winner is often the real loser—in fees, expenses and waste of time. As a peacemaker the lawyer has a superior opportunity of becoming a good man. There will always be. enough business. Never stir up a litigation. A worse man can scarcely be found than one who does this. Who can be more nearly a fiend than he who habitually overhauls the register of deeds in search of defects in titles, whereon to stir up strife and put money in his pocket? A moral tone ought to be in- fused into the profession which should drive such men out of it.” It has been truly said that those words should be posted in every law office in the land, and it will be seen: when Lincoln’s record is’ fully exam- ined, that it was not ‘a mere theorist who wrote them, but an active prac- titioner of wide experience who lived up to his own teaching. —Frederick Trevor Hill in the Century.
