I Infancy Is the brief morning hour ; which precedrs the busy day. It uy be grand and beautiful and after j ward only be dark and threatening or It may be bleak and dreary and at i last break forth into full glory of the beautiful rummer day. Infancy, the morning hour' How beautiful it is! How filled with great responsibilities. An Immortal roul commences its ex- i uMenoe and this little spirit begins i to tote the parsing hours. Infancy has Its hours of anxiety and trials .' tor the parents but it also has its hour of compensating Joys. A sense i of responsibility fills the parents iirmis as mry rvalue lum m lutir bunds and under their influence is to be molded a character. That they are the ones to carefully watch the unfolding of life, the develop ment of a soul. Infants influence others. Oft times they are found to Influence the whole destiny of a man. Sometimes the feeble clasp of an almost helpless band Is strong enough to turn evil men from the road of ruin. Infants tie beams ct light, fountains of lore. They brighten the home, deepen love ajid vivify and sustain the charities of life. Fas Into Childhood They now pass like fleeting mo ments into childhood, which time seems to us the happiest season of life. It is the season of joy, bliss, strength and pride, but yet this Is the time when they receive those lm iresslons or contracts those habits that impel them towards the good and true or towards the evil and false. A child's soul is without charac ter. It is an existence beautiful and spotless. It Is the chart of a man yet to be filled with the elements of a character. These are first outlined by the parents. The soul is soft and the lines they make are not easily erased. It Is in childhood that the mind is most open to impressions. The first things continue always with the first joy or the first failure, the first achievement of the first misfortune, pain the foreground of life. The glee ful laugh of children is the best home music and the graceful figures of childhood are the best statuary. Someone has said that the man or woman who has never tried the companionship of a little child has passed over one of the greatest pleas, ures of life. The Nooii-tlde of Life Children go rapidly forward on their great career. They enter the noontide of life the life of plans (and actions. There is no phase of. life , more outstanding far good or evil tha.n that of a manhood or woman hood. i Young men should carefully con ' slder what Is mennt by manhood. I When the sun is beaming upon him and when It seems the brighten? he fehouUl then resolve to have some aim In life. It is the aim that maks the ma.n. At this period he is stand ing at the open gates ot active life. Here he catches the first glimpse of responsibilities in store for Mm. Every young man should go forward in life with the steady determination to do all the good he can and to leave the world better by his having lived In It. There Is within the man en uprising of lofty sentiments, which contrlbnte to his elevation. Though there are many obstacles In the way and many difficulties to overcome, yet with a great determi nation and truth as his watchword and a noble character be may crown himself with everlasting honors. Not only can a young man ascend to higher ideals but it should be the desire of every young woman to pos sess true womanhood. She snould have some set purpose in life but should know first what she is. what she is capable of doing and what fields of pleasure and profits are available to her. When she has care fully considered these things, she should set the high purpose ot being a true woman and make every in stance bend to her will for this un equalled accomplishment. Woman has a power in her moral influence which when developed makes her queen over a wide realm. The work sha accomplishes will last forever; the world is moved and civilization moved by the silent influence of a woman. We cannot over-estimate her powers of moral and religious in fluence. ' Kveniug Approaches How rapidly the days of manhood nnd womanhood pass by. Tim tlit.e when the cheery smiles ore so many signs of happiness. The day is so fleeting that noontide uneonscios! passes Into the evening of llfo. The time of cr.lni repose and holy Lit di lation. Childish dreams are put nwjy nnd God's wibhes are being fulfilled. It is now that the thoughts of man and woman should be most valuable. They can profit by experiences of the past and foretell the rewards of the future. The evening of life Is re garded by some as a dreary season but experiences chow us that it 13 filld .with consolations and d"lUh!. There Is nothing unpleauar. In old age. Death, when looked upon In th; right .iplrlt, Is but tne necessary They are Good! Buy this Cigar die and Save Money stage of crossing over to a more lorious and perfect life. Death comes to all and we are all equal In this. We watch one as he closes the beautiful evening of life aad enters Into the life of Immortality. Dear boys and girls, you're In life'a morning, So modest and kind and good. So let the noontide of your lives Be Just as you know it should. Then you'll be joyful In years of evening When you see the evening star. If you've tried to do your best for Him And can peacefully cross the bar. W. V.

To Taxpayers of Union County There is nothing in public affairs that is of more vital interest to the average citizen than the matter of taxation and consequently the use of public money. The unfortunate feat ure about the administration of gov. eminent is that public officers are not so careful with the use of public funds as they are with their own private funds. We will have soon spent over three fourths of a million dollars, within the last few years, in the construc tion of public roads in this county. Much of it was done in the experi mental age, but we have now reached a more matured age in road buildine. and the point where one dollar should go as far as two have gone. We all wanted roads and we were sore in need of roads when road construction was begun in this county. There perhaps has never been any movement of progress which has add ed more to the value of our properties and has served the people better than the construction of good roads. Fur ther construction should be made, but should be done on the most eco nomical basis. Whether further con struction is to be continued, it is er- am that maintenance must continue We must not forget the fact that the maintenance of the roads already made is more important than the making itself. If maintenance is not kept up in first class order, the thou sands we have spent will go to waste. To lock after this important work, it is highly important that a road electorate of the best, wisest and most prudent men of the county should be placed on this board. It is the duty of the people of the county to select one man from each township and one man at large, to oe selected oy the county, on this important board. it is now time tnat eacn township should bring to the front the name of one man to be nominated in the next primary as a member of this electorate. The taxpayer should not sit idly by and content himself by criticising what may hereafter be done by the road authorities when he has not done his duty toward the selection ot competent men to look after this important affair. ine i me ior nnntr tne name or a candidate will soon expire. These names should be filed with the board of election without further delay. A TAXPAYER. The Flapper Glossary Darb. A person with money who can be relied upon to pay the check. Flatwheeler.

Two small boys were discussing the various excellence of their re spective parents, and the conversation had reached the highly critical and even personal stage. "Well," remarked Tommy Stubbs. "you can say what you like, but I reckon your father's about the mean est man that ever lived. Fancy him letting you walk about in them old shoes, and him a shoemaker, too!"

Another Smart Youngster Mr. and Mrs. Jones had been in vi'ed to a friend's home for tea, and the time hnd arrived for preparing for the visit. "Come along, dearie," said Mrs. Jones to her three-year-old son, "and have your face washed." "Don't want to be washed," came the reply. "But said mother, "you don't want to be a dirty little boy, do you T I want my little boy to have a nice clean face for the ladies to kiss." Upon this persuasion he gave way and was washed. A few minutes later he stood watching h's father washing. "Ha, ha, daddy!" he cried. "I know why you're washing!" Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph.
