W. W. WO0I1.
WKDXKSHAY, JANUARY 12, HMO.
It Is better to be nn honest man
In one lnngungo than n Hnr In live.
Take enro of the lille poor! The
Idle rich will take care of them
solves.
One docs not need a perfect
knowledge of grammar to speak
good and truo wordB nil the tlmo.
In tho Now Year mako up your
mind to bo cheerful. Sco tho best In
everything. Say a kind word wheth
er you feel just like It or not; get
tho habit of being courteous nt nil
times; keep yourself clean mental
ly, morally and physically and you
will be surprised nt What n glorious
thing life that is worth whllo Is.
Without tho atmosphere, besides
the iuconvlenco to broathing, n grent
many peculiar things Would ho ob
served that would seem very ex
traordlnary to us. Tho sun would
rise straight up in tho morning into
a sky ns blnck as obny, traverse
a black' sky and sink down to rest
at night into a black bed. No beau
tiful glories of the sunset and sun
rise would- nppear. no blueness of
tho heavens would bo seen, no red
sun gradually growing brighter, but
one that would rise as a fiery orb
and remain thus all day. No tw
light and no daybreak could cheer
us, for there would be nothing to
diffuse the light. Unless the sun
shone directly on a thing we could
not see it. Thus our houses would
have to be mnde of some transpar
ent substance or else be artifically
lighted in tho daytime. No soothing
shades would nppear in tho land
scape, but everything would stand
out boldly and clearly, every object
asting dense black shadows that
would render invisible any one en
tering them. No 'voice or music
could bo heard, for there would be
bo medium to carry it. No birds or
insects could flit about in the trees
and above us, for there would be
olhing to enable them to utilize
their wing motion. No clouds
would be seen in the intensly black
sky, and no thunderstorms or high
winds would be possible. No vegi-
tation could exist, and no animal
could live. In fact, this old earth
would be as dead as Hector as far
as activity was concerned.
it costs each person in tho United
States only ?1.G5 a year to go to
bed early and sleep sweetly with a
sense of security born of the sub
conscious knowledge that if his
mouse starts to burn an army of Are
laddies will hustle around and put
out the fire. Wherefore, tho census
bureau which discovered this lact
as the result of an investigation of
tho fire departments and Are lozses
of 158 of the largest cities in this
country, feel that there Is no ciuse
for fear on this score. In Berlin ii
costs 2G cents; in London 10 cents,
and in Milan 17 cents. Tho United
States geological survey has made
some computation to show that this
difference is because the building
restrictions in Europe are greater
than in this country, that there are
more fireproof buildings and that
the cost of maintaining the fire de
partments is not so great. It is not
because American flro departments
are expensive administers. When
It comes to conserving the country's
resources or, better yet. Its assets,
the toll of (Ire tells n fearful lesson.
During 1907, tho 158 largest Ameri
can cities lost more than S48.000,
000 in their fires, covered by insur
ance amounting to 142,000,000.
Governor Hughes of Now York
has made an excellent Governor,
and deserves great credit for his
energy shown in efforts to reform
politics In Now York. He haB been
earnestly advocnting a primary law
which will lesson tho dictating in
fluence of the political loaders, and
Rive tho common people a larger
opportunity to dotermlno who shall
bo candidates for tho different of
fices. Ho now comes out in a letter
In which ho practically states that
an exception should be made in tho
matter of several state- officers which
horetoforo have been elected and
which ho thinks should bo appoint
ed by tho Governor. This may be
alright, but if somebody else had
suggested such an Innovation what
a howl would go up from thoso peo
ple who are tuned up to yell hyster
ically at an proposition which does
not como from ontf of the sanctified.
If tho people can bo trusted to nom
inate candidates for one office, why
not trust them to nominate for all
ofllces? It looks as if tho Gover
nor has a very high OBtimato of his
ability to do Bomo things which tho
sovereign people- might mako a
botch of. Every political leader has
the same Idea. ijIlAMfc
Tho Scrnnton newspapers nro very
profuse in publishing tho faces of
hor noted men, "and thoir numes
nro legion," and wo aro looking for
thnt mlxup which Is customary and
sure to come in printing offices, nnd
wo will not bo surprised to see undor
the head of n Poruna or Duffy mnlt
whiskey advertisement the features
of some of Scranton's favorite sons.
If this is to happen, hrcthern ar
range so that it will 'not. happen
wlille the present revival is in oper
ntlon. 'There la a Devil in every
printing office and it would bo well
for those whose pictures have been
used to (ill spneo in their homo
journals to arrange to have tho elec
tros of same placed where the Devil
cannot get them.

WHAT CAUSED MRS. STETSON'S
DETHRONEMENT.
Tho fierce light that beats upon
tho leaders in any great religious
controversy has, of .lato, focussed
Its rays upon ono woman In particu
lar Mrs. Augusta E. Stetson, tho
foremost exponent of Christian Scl
enco In New York City.
Human Life for January contains
a masterly story of this extraordin
ary woman. Devoid of nowspaper
sonsationnllsm, but presenting fncts
and livo details hitherto unknown
to tho outside public, Mr. Glllmore's
nrticlo traces Mrs. Stetson's checker
ed career from girlhood, and tolls
tho story of how, alono and un
known, sho unfurled tho banner of
Christian Scleneo in Now Yoi;k City,
tho coldest and most indifferent city
In tho world, and In seven years bad
raised a million and a quarter dol
lars, and attracted a throng of de
voted followers among tho most
wealthy and influential citizens. The
secrots of hor success woro a radiat
ing personality, boundless ambition,
and a genius for leadership that
threatened to overshadow that of
tho renowned founder of tho cult
herself.
Under tho cornor-stono of tho pala
tial church which sho built in New
York is burlod a letter by Mrs, Eddy
which, In tho light of recont ovents,
reads strangely indeed.
All tho events which led up to the
Bchtsm aro clearly traced. Then
came tho dulugo. But what does tho
futuro hold out for this proud and
EICVI8ION AND APPEALS.
Notice is hereby civen. pursuant to
tho provisions of tho Act of Assem
bly, entitled "An Act to provldo for
tho ordinary expenses of the govern
ment, payment of tho Interest of tho

tho sale of public works and for

day of July, 1842, that tho assessors
of tho several townships ana boro
