During tho five years from 102 to 181)7 tho production of cut nails fell from 4"0,000,000 pounds to 21,000,1100: during the samo period the production of wire nails roso from 471, 000,000 to nearly 1)00,000,000 pounds.

"Fault finding," says tho Philadelphia Times, "is one of tho ways in which men seek to bo wiser than they aro. It seems to Invest them with a degree of authority in the eyes of those who do not rei.lle that it is tho easiest of all things to find fault. To expose errors, to foretell difficulties, to criticise meth ods, to make objections, may all be dono volubly by persons who have no power to originate better ways or to overcomo obstacles which they spread forth and who aro In every way inferior to those whom they criticise or oontradlct or in terrogate.'' The importance of the coming spring election is commented upon by an ex change in tho following manner: Havo you been thir.king of candidates for Spring election? This is a subject that Hhould interest every good citizen. Tho olllcors of town council and school di rectors lie vory close to your pocket books and you want the bust men of the town to fill these jiositions and manago our borough and school affairs. Have you stopped to think that these men han dle three-fourths of all the money you pay In tuxes, Including what tho bor ough receives from licenses and school appropriations? Au exchange gives the following reasons why towns die, which are worth considering. It Bays: More towns die for the want of confidence on the part of the business men, and lack of public spirit, than from the rivalry of neigh boring towns and adverse surroundings. When a man in search of a home or business location goes to a town and finds everything brimful of hope and enthusiasm over the prospects of the place, and everybody at work to build up the town, ho boon becomes Imbued with the same spirit, and as a result he drives down his stake and goes to work with the same Interest. When, how ever, he goes to a town and everyone expresses doubt and apprehension In the future prosperity of the place, moping about and indulging in complaints about imaginary evils which are likely to befull the town, he uuturally feels it is no pluue for him and at once shukeg tho dust from his feet, while he pulls with all possible smed lor somo other town. Consequently, try to tuako a live, enterprising, progressive town out of the one In which you live. When you are working for or saying a good thing for your town you are aeuouipllsh Jug all the more for yourself. COMMITTED SUICIDE. Dr. Chester D. Lowery, of Brookville, Tonk His Life With a Shotgun. Dr. Chester D. Iiwety, a dentist of Ilrookvillo, committed suicide last Thursday evening shooting himself with a sholgun. He hud worked in his olllce all day and before going home to supper went to tho homo of Daniel Hell, step fatln r of Mrs. Lowery, and told them that three men had planned to kill him and his wife and child that night, and asked If they could slay all night at Heiiz's. They told him ho could and he went home, reaching t here about 5.110 and immediately got his re volver and Informed bis wife what the three men Intended doing, and said, We . may as well all die together. Where is Amy?" Mrs. Lowery man aged to get the revolver from him and pretended xV.o was going out to get the il tit) girl. She found the little girl, but Instead of returning hi. me, notified Sheriff Hums of her husband's notion. Tho Sheriff and three or four others went to the Lowery homo and found the lights all out. Dr. Lowery had threatened to shoot liny one who a proaehed the house, and It was known Unit he had a double burrelled shotgun In the house, which bis wife had forgot ten in her fright, and the sheriff and party were afraid he was lying in wait, ami there was considerable hesitancy before Sheriff Hums broke the door in. They found Dr. Lowery lying on his bed in the cold embrace of death. IIo had been deliberate in preparing for the tragic end. lie had placed Ills money on a stand in his room, taken off his clothing and hung them up, then seated himself on the edge of his bed, put the muzzle of the gun to his heart and, it Is supposed, pulled the trigger with his toe. The gun fell away from him and he fell back on the bed. The shot mado a hole in his side the si.e of a silver dollar. There was no blood from tho wound. It was after ten o'clock before anybody got to him and tho supposition Is that he shot "himself soon after his wife left the house. Mr. Lowery had u largo practice and lived In a lino house. Ho took his own life because ho was Insane, at the time he committed the horrible deed. Dr. lowery was a "little on ' last summer and was away from home a month. There seems to be no doubt that had tho eight-year-old daughter, Amy. been at homo when Mr. Lowery arrived there Thursday evening ho would havo mur dered his wife and child before taking his own life.
