KuSbins From Honros.
Christmas was kopt at Monroe in
the usual time honored style. Ever
greens, toys and best of all a Santa
Clause maae glad the hearts of the
little ones.
Our Christmas- festivities were
srmewliat saddened, however, by
sickness and death. On Christmas
day the chassed remains of Frank
Leanord and George Blake, the two
unfortunate rnn who perishsd in the
burning building at Inman's mill,
were deposited in the graveyard at
Monroe. A third one Shepard, was
seriously perhaps fatally burned.
The burning uceured on Saturday
December 23,- whiskey is supposed
to be the immediate cause of the dis
aster. On the day following Christmas
all that was mortal of Mr T. D. Ilin
ton father-in-law of our fellowtowns
men, West. Hinton, wa-s laid to rest
in our burying ground. The Masons
took charge of the obsequies, thus
showing respect tor the decesed and
family.
There are several car.es of lung fe
ver and erysipelas in town, but they
are mostly improving I believe.
On Wednesday night nearly all
tlie young folks of our town, armed
with amply refreshments made their
way up to Mrs. Kebecca Header's.
They found that estimable lady and
her daughter not like "Josiah Allen"
"who would not be surprised,', but
perfeotfuly willing to be surprised so
the evening was spent very pleasant
ly with music, conversation and re
freshraents. EsSTCA. .

"What do you charge for a death
notice in thjs paper?" spapped s "dia
mond pointed nosed woman at the.
advertising desk of the Eagle last
night.
''Half a dollar ma'afti," replied the
clerk.
"Folks can't die without paying
for it, I suppose," snarled the wo
man. "Oh, they can die," responded the
clerk, "but it costs that to publish
the fact."
"Twenty dollars for a coffin, 15
for the grave, $10 for hacks, and only
$300 for my mourning, and now I've
got to pay fifty . cents to draw a
crowd! Think I'm made of money?"
,'I don't know ma'am," returned
the clerk, scratching his head.
"Mea-i to say you won't print this
notice less than 50 cents?"
"That's the regular price; ca'arn."
"Then I s'posel've got to pay it,
or there won't be a soul to see my
new hat and veil. Take your inoTiey
but you bet it will' come out of the
coffin. I won't knock a cent off my
mourning, if I have to mince him up
aid plant him in a seidlilz powder
box!"
"Is this woman your wife" asked
Ihcjudge of a colored man, and
pointing to a woman.
'Is what my wife?"
"Is that woman your wife."
"I don't sec no 'otnan, I sees a la
dy and de lady am my wife."
"Is that man your husband?"
"Dat gentleman is my husband."
"Well ladies and gentlemen,- I
have investigated this case, and have
decided to send this lady and gentle,
man to jail for six months." Arkan

A short time ago a young lawyer
asked Senator David Davis' permis
sion to pay court to a young lady
of wealth, his ward. Senator D.tvis
took the case under consideration for
a day, and rendered the followiug,
decision: "I can not give my con
sent," it ran. "not because you are
poor and dependent upon your pro
fession, but because you are in the
habit jof incurring needless debts,
without kowing or caring how you
are to pay them."
A book is called, "How to keep a
store." It is a work of seveial bun
dled pages, anil life is to short to
read it. The best way to keep a
store is to advertise judiciously, and
by this means do business and pre
vent it from falling into the hands
of the sheriff.
A Chicago chap advertises for sev
eral steady girls to help on panta

that a fellow who can't help on his
own pantaloons ought to be assham
ed to want girls to do it.
A Christmas suggestion: Gi ve the
little girl something pretty and nice
that she can keep a long time. Give
the boy something that he can eat
quick or make a noise with.

Strong Drink3.
Why are those drinks called strong
dr'.nks?"
Not because they make people
strong, for they make them weak,
but because they are strong to make
honest men thieves; strong to make
good people wicked; strong to make
industrious people idh; strong to
make ric'i people poor; strong to
make mcrr reel about in the streets;
strong to make healthy people sick;
j strong to make kings beggars; strong
to make men commit murder and
suicide; strong to make sailors steer
vessels on rocks; strong to make wise
men foolish; Ptrong to make people
forget God; and sometimes they are
so strong as to make people see two
things when there is only one.
OXE ITEM IN THE BILL.
The annual drink-bill of the United
States is estimated to be seven bun
died millions of dollars ! In Great
Britain; with a population of 6,000,
000 less than ours, the drink-bill is
$785,000,000. What an enormous
sum for alcoholic stimulants in a
single year 700,000,000 ! In
twenty years the annua! compound
interest, on this sum would amount
to more than 25,000,000,000. Here
is the startling result of twenty years
national indulgence in intoxicating
liquors. over twenty-five billions
Of dollars!! The cost of drunken

money represented by these worse
than useless beverages is indeed fear
ful, appaiing, and beyond the man
ner of expression in words or figures.
The wheat and corn which God gives

THE SCARS OF INTEMPERANCE.
You know very well that a scar
will not wash out or grow out. Ab
solutely, there is no doubt of this.
But how vrst ard fathomlessly prac
tical are the applications of'th" simple
truth that scars are inerasable ! A
two-edged sword, this, and of keener
edge th.-n Damascus steel. The dull
inebriate, who scars his brain by the
habit of intemperance thinkc that
alter his reformation his nervous sys
tem will slowly recover ail the sound
ness it once had. But on your finger
a scar wiil not grow out. Scars, how
ever the bod' may change are abso
lutely unchangeable- in the changing
flesh. We carry into our graves the
marks of our boyhood's sports; and
this is as true of the spots that scar
the brain as of those that gash the
fingers. That the most searching
blessings are good habits, the most
penetrating curses are bad habits, is
found in the one fact that the auto
matic neivous rneenanism is such,
that when a habit good or bad is
scarred into the brain, the soul pours
forth the result of the habit almost
spontaneously. And just so, friends
ycirr tendency or mine to profane
speech, to ribald jest, to the inebri
ate's thirst, or the sensualist's leche
rous thoughts, scar the nervous sys
tem in its automatic action. WTien

may be, alas!by inheritance), pass
