... An Iudiana editor and n
rich widow, were, eugaged to
he .man ied, when the eigli-
hors began to talk about it,
charging that he was marry
ing her for her riches. The
nohle ' minded young editor
was sorely jrrieved at- this,
and he peisuaded his a Ilia ne
ed to turn all the worldlv
pelf over to her Krowndangh
terand thus ptove to t li e
world thejRincerity of his af
fection. The trusting widow
did so and thVvery next
night the editor wlnped with
the girl, and in the morr.imr
the widow pied the forms in
the office and ) would ha ve
pied the form of the editor if
she had found him. Ex.
, LOST.
.That young man who has
drifted away from the moor
ings of childhood, and from
the authority of his con
science. That young man who
drinks a little whiskey for
its social cheer.
That young man who vis
its the enchantress.
That young man who 'sub
orns conscience for gain.
Thatyoungman who j?rum
bles to accommodate three
other fools.
That young man who sub
stitutes nit for work, when
his wit is so small that it
u;i!t br? helped by trickery.
In all these the evil forces
are liberated that usually
make damnation only aques
ion of time. Ex.
When you see good Demo
crats straightening their
shoulders, polishingfheirsilk

and hear them hinting abouH
nominations, you may count
on a democratic victory a t
the next election. Demo
