Tho now flnpr will contnln forty-five stars, one more since the admission of Utah. tt Is until that Texas proposes to place a tax of fc"0 each on all bachelors over 30 years of ngo, unless they swear that they have tried to marry and couldn't. This Is leap year legislation. Sam Jones says: "If all the wealth of tho United States were divided out to-day eae,h man would ffet nlxHit $1,000, and In less than six months some fel lows would be riding In palace cars and others would bp walking cross-ties, howling for another dlvy." Don't forget three little words "If you please," said Sir Humphrey Davy. Life is made up not of great sacrifices or duties, but of little things, of which smiles and kindness and many small obligations, given habitually, are what win and preserve the heart and secure comfort. The new constitution of Utah, adopt ed for the State organization, has the following features: It" provides that juries shall consist of eight instead of twelve, and that in civil cases three fourths of the number may render a verdict. Also, that the State shall never go into debt exceeding $200,000, except in ease of insurrection. That every citizen has the right to obtain employment wherever posstblo, and any interference is made a crime. Sufforage Is given to woman on equal torniB with men. Ex-Prcsidcnt Benjamin Harrison will discuss "The Presidential OOlce" very comprehensively in his "This Country of Ours" series, in the forth coming February Ladies' Home Journal. Ho will detail the provisions and methods of uleetlng a Chief Magistrate, and will have much to say bearing upon tho eligibility of a President for re election; will give his views as to tho length of tho Presidential torm, and ex press rather decided opinions relative to the annoyances to which Presidents are subject from otflco-seokors. The article is practical, based upon ex perience and observation, and is very timely. General Harrison believes that the fears (expressed by the framcrs of our Constitution) that the power of the office is such as to enable an ambitious incumbent to secure an indefinite suc cession of terms have never been realized. Bob Burdctte gives this simple recipe: "My homeless friend with the chromatic noso, while you are stirring up tho sugar in a ten-cent glass of gin, let me give you a fact to wash down with it. You may say you have longed for years for the free, independent life of a farmer, but you have never been able to get money enough to buy a farm. But there is where you are mistaken. For some years you have been drinking a good, improved farm at the rate of .100 square feet at a gulp. If you doubt this statement, figure it out for yourself. An aore of lund contains 4.V(i0 square foot. Estimating, for convenience, the land at $43.50 an acre, you will boo that U brings tho land to just one mill per square font. Now, pour down the fiery dose, and Imagine you are swallowing a struwborry-patch. Cull in five of your friends und have them help you gulp down that garden of 500 square foet. Got on a prolongod spree some day, and sou how long it will take to swallow a pasture lund to food a cow. Put down that gluss of gin; there is dirt In it 100 squure foot of good, rich dirt, worth $43.50 per acre." The Star has mentioned several times that one of the needs of Jefferson county is a County Homo. Itf would be a big saving to the tax payers of Jeffer son oounty. Occasionally the overseers of townships and boroughs are Imposed on by people asking for aid who oould work and would work rather than go to a County Home. West Reynoldsvllle has not been a borough Jong, but it has had one case where family, including the husband, was kept by the borough until the man, whom it was thought wad able to work, was given a choice botween going to jail or working. He soon got able to go to work. The Clear Hold Jtejmblicun says: "Since the new County Home has been opened up to re ceive the paupers of the county, the Dumber of persons receiving aid has suddenly greatly diminished. In some townships where a dozen or fifteen per sons had been subsisting off the taxpay ers, at present there appears to be no oue la those townships who care to be kept at the County Home. It would have been a saving of many thousands of dollars to the taxpayers of Clearfield c''y If tiers bad been County To the Golden Oate. Undoubtedly California offers more genuine attractions to the pleasure traveling public than any other part of the American continent. The fame of its climate is world-wide, and it is sought even by Europeans, who find it is more charming than their own south ern r1ovs. To Americans its worth is too well known to necessitate a descrip tion of tho many advantages to be en joyed. Personally-conducted tours via Penn sylvania Railroad will leave New York and Phlludelphlu February 12 and Mnreh 11. 1S!K). In addition to the many other points of interest visited on the first tour a stop will ho made at New Orleans for tho Mardl-Gras festivi ties, and four weeks will be allowed in California. On tho second tour four and one-half weeks will be allowed in California. An addition to the magnificent train heretofore used for these tours Is a through Pullman compartment car. The ear, which will bo tho very Ix'st that tho Pullman Company can supply, will contain nine inclosed compartments two drawing rooms and seven Mate rooms and will be attached to the special train at Jersey City and run through to Snn Diego, Cal., on tho first tour, and Sun Francisco on tho second. This will be the first car of Its kind to be run on a transcontinental train, and that It will bo thoroughly appre ciated by participants in the tours is evidenced by the fact that already several of the compartment! have been reserved.

ThePhll udolphla Prem of Dec. 24, 1S!)5, says: "III Henry's minstrel company, which has not appeared In this city in several years, opened at tho Grand opera house last evening before a good-sized audi ence, who wore privileged to enjoy a minstrel performance firet-clasB In every respect. The company numbers fully half a hundred Btar performers, at tho head of which is Hi Henry, undoubtedly ono of America's greatest cornet play-ei-s. The usual first part performance showed the company to possess many fine singers, and tho solos andquartottes were all liberally applauded and many of them had to be repeated. The orehestra of solo musicians was par ticularly fine, and the first 'part Btage setting, consisting mostly of heavy plush and velvet drapery, was particu larly gorgeous. The performance was made up of the general minstrel stylo of entertainment, including tho mirthful musings of Arthur Deming, Frank E. McNish. tho original "silence and fun" man; Master Joseph Williams, the phenomieal boy soprano: tho wondorful Crawford brothers, gymnasts; the unique Mexican Ballad Club, and many other special features. A beautiful stage picture was presented by the marching gladiators, and their move ments wore skillfully executed. Another much applauded feature was a series of groups of bronze statuary. There will bo a seeiiil Christmas mati nee of the HI Honry minstrels." When you have a' bad cold and cough try a bottle of Extract of Wild Chorry and Tar. For sale at the Reynolds Drug Store.

Editor Star: In looking over vour paper I seo an account of the duutu of Joseph Strauss. A nobler type of man hood never walked the streets of Reyn oidsville, whose heart never had an ungenerous throb, and whose hund was always ready to help the needy. He was not the man to do a charitable act with the intention of making himself apiear generous before his follow man, but he Hid It from tne goodness oi nis heart, and without that principal deep ly permeating his nature no man can bo either noble, good or great. I take it that this rock on which bis whole life rested, followed, up by the perpetual and enduring Industry that marked his whole career, made him at once the hon est and capable man who invited, in every act of his life, and reoeived the oonfidenoe and love the unbounded confidence and love of all who learned to know him.
