Tide. he A HOME IN THE HEART. “Oh! ask not a home in the mansions of pride Where marble shines out in the pillars and walls; Though the roof be of gold, it is brill- iantly cold, And joy may not be found in its torch- lighted halls. But seek for a bosom all honest and true, Where love, once awakened, will never depart: Turn, turn to that breast like the dove to its nest, And you’ll find there’s no home like a home in the heart. Oh! link but one spirit that’s warmly sincere,’ That will heighten your pleasure and solace your care; Find a soul you may trust as the kind and the just, And be sure the wide world holds no treasure so rare. Then the frowns of Misfortune may shadow our lot, The cheek searing tear-drops of sorrow may start; But a star never dim sheds a halo for him Who can turn for repose to a home in the heart.” VALUABLE LESSONS. We have in our community a num- ber of boys and men whose names could be written on the lazy list with- out doing them an injustice. Solomon was something of a naturalist in con- nection with his many other accom- plishments. Being also of a practical cast of mind, he was able to turn his knowledge to good advantage. In the commonplace things of life he found many valuable lessons for man. Inthe diminutive ant he discovered habits of life which put to shame the slothful, and so when he beheld the human curbstone ornaments, and the fellows who loved to sit upon dry goods boxes of his day, he said: “Go to the ant, thou sluggard; con- sider her ways and be wise. “Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler. “Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.” If industry is a virtue, laziness may consistently be treated asa crime. So- ciologists are agreed thatthe child who has nothing to do is in abad way. Par- ents and guardians eho go upon the theory that an occasional job of work will tend to stunt the growth of their offspring, lay the foundation for ca- reers which will prove not a blessing, but a curse. PICKING FRUIT. Fruit picking is in some ways similar to the battle of life. There are any number of people who are ready and willing to pick the small, half ripe fruit pear the ground, but only an occasional one who will make the effort necessary to secure the large, ripe, full-grown fruit on the upper branches. It takes some nerve and considerable grit to reach those cherries on the topmost branch, and it takes nerve, good judg- ment, and a never faltering purpose to gain those things in the battle of life that are really worth the attaining. There are hundreds of applicants for the easy work of picking fruit near the ground ; there are hundreds of appli- cants for the easy work of the common- place jobs. Too many people never realize to what heights they might at- tain, simply because they are too apt to be content with those things easy of achievement. That which requires long and constant effort to secure, is usually worth the having, once its possession is obtained. The school boy should early learn the lesson that the ripest, biggest cherries are at the top, and that nine out of ten of his fellows will be crowding for places to pick around the base of the tree, where the small, wormy fruit grows. There is plenty of room at the top; there are plenty of cherries grow- ing there. The lucious fruit is ready for the picking, and ever smiles a wel- come to the hustler to climb up and obtain possession. The best things in life require considerable effort to get. INFLUENCE OF EXAMPLE. The natural education of the home is prolonged far into ilfe, indeed it never entirely ceases. But the time arrives, in the process of years, when the home ceases to exercise an exclusive influ- ence on the formation of character, and it is succeeded by the more artifi- cial education of the school, and the companionship of friends and comrades which continues to mould the character by the powerful influence of example. Men of all ages cannot help imitating those with whom they associate. If young men are wisely influenced and directed, and exert their own free ener- gies, they will seek the society of those better than themselves, and strive to imitate their example. There are per- sons whom to knowis to love, honor and admire, and others whom to know is to shun and despise. Live with per- sons of elevated character, and you will feel lifted up in them. “Live with wolves,” says the Spanish proverb, “and you will learn to howl.” The life of every man is a daily inculeation of good or bad example to others. The life of a good man is at the same time the most eloquent lesson of virtue, and the most severe reproof of vice. There are men in whose presence we feel as if we breathed spiritual ozone, refresh- ing and invigorating, like inhaling mountain air or enjoying a bath of sun- shine. The golden words that good men have uttered, the examples they have set, live through all time. These being undisputed facts, how carefully our young people should select their associates, and be found only with those whose example they can take pride in following! Elk Lick Township Teachers.

From Tuesday night not a store in the town was opened until Saturday evening. Every merchant went into the harvest fields Wednesday morning to help the farmers save their grain. Not half a dozen persons were left in town. The stores did such a thriving business that merchants say they are satisfied more money has been spent than would have been had they kept open the three days. Farmers came from miles around to purchase goods.—Kansas City Journal. LOOK A LITTLE AHEAD. It is always well to have a box of salve in the house.

No. Martin Bell, president Judge of Blair county, rendered a decision Saturday | that will fall heavily upon the drug stores and other places where soft | drinks are sold on Sunday, should lo- calities insist on an enforcement of the law. He held that it is a violation of the Blue Laws adopted 1797 to sell ice cream, soda water, cigars, etc., on Sunday, as refreshments, but that restaurateurs and innkeepers can fur- nish ice cream as part of a meal, Isn't it about time to strike that fool law from the statutes?—Somerset Standard.

Charles Trenton, alias Charles Tren- tor, one of the negroes captured here last May after an exciting chase, was convicted Saturday of highway rob- bery and sentenced to the penitentiary for 20 years. He was tried at Keyser, W. Va. Trenton and William Ross were ac- cused of shooting Policeman Edward Spangler, at Rockwood, but Ross, it developed, alone was resposible for the shooting.—Connellsville Courier, Big Frostburg Debate. We have it by grapevine telephone, that Fred Durr, the well-known mayor of Pocahontas, is to take part in a five- hour debate soon to be held in Frost- burg, Md., under Marquis of Odortown rules, and refereed by Editor J, B. Oder, of the Frostburg Mining Journal. “Resolved, that the pig is mightier than the pen, especially in Frostburg,” is the question that is to be discussed by Mayor Durr and other invited per- sons of national reputation. Veterans of Historic Fifty-fourth to Gather at Gettysburg in October. At a meeting of the local survivors of the Fifty-fourth regiment, Pennsyl- vania Volunteers, one of the most fa- mous of the Keystone state regiments in the Civil War, held in the G. A. R. building, Saturday night, it was de- cided to hold the annual reunion of the regiment at Gettysburg, Oct. 2. Capt. John L. Decker presided at the meet- ing, and David R. Bryan, the secretary of the Fifty-fourth association, was in- structed to send invitations to all the survivors to attend the reunion. Mr. Bryan has the addresses of 313 survivors, who are scattered through- out the United States. The local rep- resentation is about 46, and as this is by far the largest number in any single community, Johnstown is naturally looked upon as the center. The veterans anticipate assembling at Gettysburg, Oct. 1, the day before the reunion. Oct. 3 will be taken up with sight-seeing, and the dates will so fall that the veterans can go on to Harrisburg to attend the dedication of the new state capitol, Oct. 4—Johns- town Democrat, Ya Agreements for Teachers.

Fully Insured. A Pike county girl married a guide, and the day after the wedding the guide took out a life policy for $1,500. Then, with his wife he started for Porter’s Lake with a party of sports- men, the wife to cook and wash dishes. the man to clean fish, and so on. Un- fortunately, the guide was bitten by a rattlesnake one morning, and a few days afterward he died. The ‘widow | notified her friends of his death in « note that said: “Bill parst away yis- tidy. Loss fully covered by insurance.” —Argonaut.
