Tho following article from an ex
change may benofit Homo of the him
land of RoynoUlHvillo.
Llttlo things do not enter Into tho
life of a man o much an thoy do Into
that of a woman, and I believe that In
thin fact lies the basin of many a man's
miminilorntunding of the oppotttto box.
I know wive to whom tho husband's
morning kiss, an he gooa to his office, is
a weet rememheranee through all the
day. and Is to her as much of her being
as Is the newspajter to tho man. There
are men splendid men, too who are
perfectly incapable of understanding
this. Only a few days ago, one of the
most estimable men in the world, a
model husband, and one of tho best
fathers,, said to nio touching this very
point: "It is positively funny to mo to
eo tho perfect delight which my wifo
takes in putting her arms around me,
and insisting upon a kiss every morning
w hen I leave her for tho offlco. Do you
know I'd never think of it?" That's just
itl Men do not think of those things
half us much as thoy should. Many a
wife s heart would he lighter, her homo
would bo brigbtor If men were more con
siderate of these very things. Trifles
you may call then), my dear friend and
I am now talking to tho men who read
ino but thoy are more than that to a
woman. They are the rays of sunshine
which makes her llfo happy. They tell
her louder than any spoken words
v.'ould that sho has her husband's love,
and sho is tho queen of his heart and
tho guiding star of his llfo. Trifles?
IVoll, perhaps, but I wish tho world
wore fuller of them.
They wcro beautiful hands, soft,
white, shaiely, but thoy had not boen
trained. They couldn't koep accounts,
or use the noedlo, or the broom, or the
dish-cloth, or the mop, or the cooking
utensils. They had at one tlino glided
skilfully over tho piano keys and
wielded tho pencil to gome purpose;
thoy wero graceful hands and mode
pretty postures, or foldod themselves
harmoniously over the soft draperies
Ixmoath thorn. By and by the ample
provision that had boon loft to koop
these hands In Idleness was wasted bo
Causo tho hands couldn't keep accounts:
wicked men took advantage of thoso
helpless hands and stole their treasures
from thorn, and then days of darkness
and trouble euine. Tho owner of tho
hands had to board because sho didn't
know how to cook, and of course sho
hod to eat what was set before her, and
so hor digestive apparatus got all out of
order. She hud to hire hor drosses
made. She couldn't munugc her business
affairs, and so had to trust them to a
lawyer, who in her case, proved untrusty,
and made exhorbltant charges for work
which was poorly done. At every point
whore bdo came in contact with the
world she lost and lost, until at lust she
was glad to And a refuge in the church
home which In the duys of hor prosper
ity she had helped to found. If she
hud only known how to take care of
her Bimple self, she might huve lived on
the wreck of hur fortune in modest
comfort and indejondence. This is a
ukotc.li from life. Just such histories
are transpiring evor duy, and yet girls
are permitted to grow to womanhood
without knowing how to do what is
indisponsuble for their own persouul
comfort and existence even. It is not a
wise parent who ullows a child to grow
up in idleness. There are many adverse
clrcumstunces (or humanity to meet
from the cradle to the grave, and the
boy or girl who has been brought up
without being taught how to do the
every duy duties of life, even It thoy
are never oorapellod to toil, are a poor
excuse Indued. One great reason why
there are so many worthless girls to-duy
is the intouded to be klndhearted
mothers of our land. There are so
many mothers that will toil all duy
while the daughter sita around reading
a novel or "gods" the streets or wastes
her time ia some other manner. The
far-soeing mother is the one who
Buprintouds the household work while
the daughter does the work.

Every Tenth Sale
GIVEN ftWftYl
Commencing thie! Wednesday morning, January 25th,
we inaugurate the largest wile
Boots and Shoes !
Ever attempted in the place. Our invoice of
last week shows that we have on hand thirty
five hundred dollars worth of Boots and Shoes.
This is by far the largest stock in the place.
We intend to close out the entire line in the
following manner:
We have reduced the price on all our Boots
and Shoes, as you can well see when you come
to buy, as our goods are all marked in plain
English figures, that is, you can see what they
originally sold for and what you can now buy
them at. This is inducement number one.
Number two is as follows:
We intend to give away every tenth pair of
Boots or Shoes, no matter what they origin
ally sold for. A strict account will be kept
and the lucky tenth buyer gets their purchase
free.

Notes About Alllntors.
There is nothing that a 'gator likes bet
ter than fresh pork, and he will toddle
three miles from water for a Florida
razorback. In cool weather ho buries
himself in mud and becomes dormant
until it grows warm. Hunters still make
a living by killing him for his hide and
teeth. The killing of alligators from the
decks of river steamers in Florida has
been stopped by law. Tourists became
very careless in their use of firearms, and
would endanger the lives of passengers
in thoir haste to iret a ahnt Iwfora tlm
boat got by a plump saurian. Vet it is
remarxanie tnnt only one person, a
woman, was ever wounded in these
reckless fusillades. Now York Sun.
